Seeing that Archie still had business, Leona took the initiative to leave. Unable to leave without taking care of Leona, Archie immediately stopped him and said, "Follow her too."Leona was surprised and Daniel was stunned. He reacted quickly and said to Leona. "Today's lunch guest is the deputy director of Dunder Company and one of the partners of Manley Company. Team leader, if you need anything, please let me know."Daniel was indeed Archie's most capable assistant. Archie had just made a decision and Daniel could instantly react what to do next and how to do it.Leona felt a little embarrassed. She had always been the lowest employee in the company. She really couldn't handle such a fancy dinner!Although she could handle complicated forms and paperwork, she couldn't handle such an elaborate dinner party.Archie seemed to understand Leona's dilemma, but he had no intention of changing her mind.As the wife of a CEO, there were some things that she would have to face sooner or late
The eyes of several mid-level managers around her flickered, but no one responded.If they were in his position, they would already know what to say and what not to say.The female sales manager, relying on her recent good performance, had been praised by Archie a few days ago, and she had become overconfident.The company would teach her a lesson and make her understand what to say and what not to say.Leona slowly followed Daniel up the stairs to the third floor."Have Mr. Archie and the guests arrived yet?" Leona asked Daniel again. "I didn't do anything wrong, did I?""Yes, we're fine." Daniel replied respectfully. "If the client has language problems, please don't get angry."Leona's eyes lit up. Could it be that this client was difficult to deal with?Before Leona knocked on the door, she heard a soft voice in the room."Mr. Archie, it was the mall that increased the market value of Manley's company by 20%. This move will decrease it by 5%. Archie, don't do this! How can we, Dun
Daniel knew Mr. Archie was angry, so he opened the door and went out to take the woman out of the restaurant on the third floor.Dona's half-smiling eyes drifted over and made Leona's scalp numb.What did this woman mean? Wasn't she dressed so sexy and charming just to seduce Archie? Why did her eyes keep falling on Leona?"Mrs. Leona, do you seem a little nervous? Since when did you become the assistant team leader next to Mr. Archie? I heard that all the assistants around Mr. Archie are as talented as ten people. Ms. Leona should also have her own expertise, right?" Dona picked up her glass and raised it towards Leona. "I'd like to bring a glass to the team leader."Leona's body suddenly stiffened.She was pregnant and couldn't drink. But today's dinner party...Leona turned to Archie, hoping he would make the decision for her. But Archie seemed to have no intention of dissuading Leona from drinking. He looked down and didn't know what he was thinking.Leona's eyes fluttered, Archie
Leona struggled hard and tried to escape from the other party's prison.When the female manager saw Leona trying to escape, she suddenly became angry and raised her hand to throw it at Leona's face!There was a rush of air around her.Although everyone knew that this newly promoted manager had the best performance, she also received praise from Mr. Archie.But it was still too scary for her to reach out and hit someone!Leona's wrist was clamped and she couldn't move for a moment. She could only watch as the other person's slap landed on her face.Leona subconsciously closed her eyes, preparing herself for the inevitable slap.But after a long wait, Leona didn't feel the expected pain.Instead, she heard gasping sounds from all around her.Leona slowly opened her eyes and when she raised them, she saw her stunned colleagues around her, looking at her with disbelieving gazes.Leona slowly turned around and was stunned when she clearly saw the situation in front of her.Archie stood beh
"Leona, it's me, it's me! We work in the same office!" Someone in the crowd said excitedly. "I heard you got promoted, but we didn't even celebrate! Let's do it tonight, can I buy you dinner?"It was then that Leona realized that the people around her were colleagues from the Logistics Department's previous office.Back then, no matter what activities they did after work, they never invited Leona. Because back then, she had to work overtime and do something for them.Now they were inviting her to have fun?At first Leona wanted to refuse, but on second thought, she didn't know where Archie was. Maybe there was no one home for dinner tonight?Leona thought for a moment and said, "I can't eat anything too exciting and I can't drink alcohol either.""Okay, okay, you can eat whatever you want. You just order and we'll pay the bill." They were so happy that they nodded and bowed their heads and asked Leona to go down to their car.Leona couldn't help but laugh when she saw how stupid they
Leona ate a piece of salmon with difficulty, and when she saw the rest of her colleagues sitting there dignified, looking at her with all kinds of fear in their eyes, she suddenly felt bored."Miss Leona, Mr. Archie doesn't allow you to eat raw food." Daniel saw that Leona wasn't paying attention to Mr. Archie's thoughts, so he took the initiative and told her very carefully.Leona suddenly came to her senses and immediately put down her chopsticks. If you don't let me eat, I won't eat. Why did you say it so tactfully?Archie looked at Daniel with satisfaction. Of all his assistants, Daniel was the one he liked the most.Leona remembered that when she was at home, Archie seemed to be quite picky about food.The food at home was delicious, and the breakfast he ate was also very delicious.It seemed like she couldn't eat with her friends tonight.Archie was here and the people around him were afraid of him, so how could they eat?Leona stood up and when she was about to apologize to the
There is a refrigerator full of familiar and unfamiliar vegetables.Leona selected some familiar vegetables and ingredients and prepared to make soy noodles for herself.When Leona turned around, she saw that Archie had not returned to the room, but was sitting in the living room watching TV. She thought, since she was staying in someone else's house, she should say hello to the owner, right?So she suddenly asked. "Can I make noodles with soybean paste?"Archie seemed to be in a good mood, so he nodded.When Leona saw that Archie was so easy to talk to, she immediately felt that this guy wasn't so annoying.Before long, the sound of chopping vegetables came from the kitchen.Archie never knew that the sound of cutting vegetables could be so melodious.Leona thought for a moment as she went downstairs, Archie probably hadn't eaten dinner yet either, right? It would be embarrassing for her to eat alone, so why not give him a bowl of noodles?The fried noodles were cooked very quickly,
Leona held her cup with a blank stare, not knowing what to say.Suddenly she stopped, wondering what question she wanted to ask Archie?Leona licked her lips and stared blankly at Archie.Archie was dressed like that, obviously about to leave. Did she have to say something stupid. Are you going to leave? Isn't that too absurd? she thought. Archie's eyes suddenly fell on Leona's lips.The lick of her lips just now was really cute.Cute? He must be crazy! He really thinks this woman is cute?This woman was just his contract wife, the mother responsible for giving birth to his heir, but he actually found her cute?Archie shook his head and turned to leave.But before he took two steps, he paused and couldn't help but tell Leona about his travel plans. He said in a cold voice. "I'm flying to Germany tonight.""Ah." Leona was still a little confused, but her brain was finally able to keep up with the man's speed. "Then be careful."When Archie heard Leona's instructions, his mood seemed to
6 months later...At the time, Jovanka's family didn't dare tell Leona that she was Jovanka's twin sister, as they feared it would affect the development of the fetus.Now Leona was 9 months pregnant and she was ready to give birth.That's when they dared to tell Leona who she really was.When Leona found out, she was speechless for a few days.She was a little stressed out and it caused her to have contractions.Archie rushed her to the hospital.* * * Archie and Leona were separated by a door.The nurses and doctors worked together to give Leona the drugs to induce labor.Everyone was busy, constantly monitoring various devices and closely observing the changes in every organ in Leona's body.Leona lay on the bed. Within minutes of the injection being inserted into her body, she felt an excruciating pain in her abdomen.Leona screamed in pain in the ward. This drug speeds up the labor process and shortens the duration of labor pains.The mother's normal contractions gradually becam
The next day, Leona invited Dona to accompany her to meet Jovanka's family.Leona wore a more formal light blue dress with her hair in a bun.The jewelry she chose was very elegant.Dona couldn't help but admire her, "Leona, you're very suitable to wear such an elegant outfit, it's beautiful! The design of this dress is so good, if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't know you were pregnant."Leona smiled and replied, "Yes, I like this skirt too."Dona took the initiative to wear Leona's bracelet.A small bracelet, not very eye-catching, but this simple little look was very pretty.Xavier called, "Have you had breakfast? I'll be waiting at the door."Dona made a face as if it was true and said, "No wonder others say that most women who meet Xavier fall in love with him. Such a warm and caring man, you can't even think of not liking him!""Alright, we'll be right out." Leona didn't listen to what Dona said and hung up the phone quickly, saying to Dona, "You! If you like him, he's your
After accompanying her mother shopping and driving her home, Leona sat on the sofa and wanted to take a nap.The phone rang softly.Leona looked at it and it was Xavier.Leona picked up the phone, "Hello?"Xavier's voice was heard on the phone, "Leona, I'm really sorry! Jovanka's family would like to invite you to be their guest, what do you think?"To be the guest of the Jovanka family?Leona was stunned.Isn't that too serious?Leona hesitated a little.Then Xavier said on the phone, "You don't need to make up your mind now. There will be a party for three days here. So you can take some time to think about it."After hanging up the phone, there was no drowsiness at all.Leona was a little confused about what Jovanka's family meant.After hanging up from Leona, Xavier immediately called Jovanka's family.Knowing that Leona did not accept the invitation from Jovanka's family, Jovanka's father and mother became worried and immediately looked for an excuse to go home to discuss the cou
"Mother, didn't I tell you? I don't care who I am at all. It's enough that I only have you as my mother! Ever since I was little, you worked hard to raise me by yourself, I don't need anyone else to protect me, I just want my mother to be happy." Leona interrupted Rose's words and said, "After all these years, ordinary days come and go, there's nothing wrong with that! I'm very happy."Rose smiled bitterly, "Actually, I found you that night, abandoned on the grass by the roadside with a bloodstained placenta, obviously just born. But that little blanket wrapped around you that I've always kept, maybe it's the proof you need to find your family!"Leona's body trembled.Sensing Leona's resistance, Rose stopped and said nothing. "Alright, I won't say anything if you don't want to hear it. I'm sorry I lied to you because I was afraid of losing you."Leona didn't answer, she lowered her head and closed her eyes.No matter what her true identity was, she also didn't want to know who her bio
"Find some people to serve her." Archie's slender fingers crossed over the gun in his hand, "Tell those bums that if they stay inside this place for more than ten minutes, give them ten thousand dollars."Hearing Archie's words, another group of bums rushed towards Rick's body.As for Rick and the small group of gangsters that Oriana found, they had long since been subdued and were kneeling on the side waiting to be disposed of.Rose was also saved.Archie frowned slightly, "Send her to the hospital for examination."Worried about Leona, Rose nodded at Archie and left immediately.At that moment, someone stood carefully in front of Archie.Owen explained in a low voice, "He's the one who secretly changed Miss's drink."The corner of Archie's mouth slowly raised as the gun in his hand pointed at the person's chest.The person was so frightened that he immediately knelt in front of Archie, trembling and shouting, "I did what you said! Please forgive me! I didn't know that the person Ric
As soon as Rose heard that Leona wanted to exchange her for her, she shook her head desperately, "Leona, don't! Leona, you can't do that for me! Leona, you're actually..."Rose said a sentence that implied a secret.But right now no one was interested in hearing this secret from her.Rose's words were immediately cut off by Oriana. "Enough! I'm tired of seeing mother and daughter love! Leona, neither you nor your mother will leave here today!"Of course Leona couldn't leave.Because she and Rick had been sedated.After the drug took effect, Rick would sleep with Leona.At that time Oriana would take a picture of her...Hahaha...Leona, you made me do this!Wait, why does my whole body feel hot...The face of Rick, who was standing beside her, suddenly changed drastically as well!He immediately turned his head and subconsciously looked at Oriana."You... drugged her?" Rick stared at Oriana in disbelief.Leona was instantly taken aback by the two people's change in attitude and immedia
Rose stared blankly at Rick, she felt that her vision had been refreshed!Leona's ex-boyfriend had even betrayed Leona together with her best friend?Rick held Oriana's waist from behind."What are you doing?" Oriana asked impatiently and tried to push Rick away.Rick brutally hugged Oriana and refused to let go, "This is what we agreed! If you get the money, you have to come with me! Oriana, I did what you asked! What's wrong with you, with money in hand, you want to dump me?"Oriana's face lowered.Those words were just her ruse to deceive Rick.Without Rick's help, she wouldn't have been able to find the right people in London to help her carry out the kidnapping and extortion quickly.Rick had been in London for several years, and he knew several people who were used to doing this.Rick hugged her tighter and his bad smelling mouth kissed Oriana's face."What are you afraid of? You're going to be my wife, sooner or later! I've been eyeing you for years and you have to shove Leona
Marco saw that Leona's face looked bad and immediately asked excitedly, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?"Leona's body staggered and she immediately clung to Marco, bit her lip and said, "Marco, how much money can I take in this house?"Marco hesitated and said, "Miss, this matter is not under my control. Didn't Mr. Archie give you a credit card? It's a card that can be used indefinitely, and if you need cash, you can get cash!"Leona gritted her teeth and said to her assistant, "Have the driver prepare the car, I'll be out for a while!"It wasn't long before Leona left in her car.When she found a bank, Leona went in with her credit card and prepared to withdraw cash.The first time her account changed, Archie noticed."Tell the bank to give the full amount as requested." Archie said. "Don't worry, the person I left by Leona's side, how could there be a three-legged cat?" The corners of Archie's mouth lifted slightly, "Oriana did give me a little surprise this
"What did you say?!" Archie was stunned, "You said the baby can kick?"A sweetness appeared in Leona's heart as she nodded gently, "Hmm. Since yesterday, the child has started to have fetal movements!""Quickly call a doctor." The butler immediately ordered.Archie didn't care about the food, pulled Leona to sit down, and only knelt on one leg, carefully with an agitated expression, then slowly pressed his ear against Leona's stomach.At that moment, the little troublemaker in her stomach moved again and kicked Archie's ear.Archie felt a subtle throbbing.This was his son!This was his son with Leona!A feeling of pride and happiness immediately came over him!Leona looked at Archie, who was leaning on her stomach with a complicated expression, and suddenly had mixed feelings, not knowing what to say.Archie, who was very image-conscious, ignored the presence of so many people for the first time and knelt on one knee to listen to her stomach.She should be very excited, right?"I hea
