Thinking that Luke already had a fiancée, Dexie slept a restless night. This time, her parents were whisked away, and Dexie also received a threatening message. It was the work of Luke’s fiancée. Perhaps she wanted to intimidate her a little.Dexie didn’t know who she was, but she must be the heiress of a distinguished family.What about her?What happened between them that night was only because someone set a trap for Luke, and Eleanor set a trap for her.Dexie was distressed and couldn’t fall asleep, so she prepared breakfast. After breakfast, she would return to the residence. She would spend New Year’s with the two eldest members of the William and Eric families. That would be the right choice.She got up and washed, then went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. While cooking porridge, she heard a woman’s voice from the kitchen door. “Isn’t it, Miss Hansley? Why did you get up so early?”Dexie turned around and saw Ava, Luke’s stepmother. She was luxuriously dressed and seemed ou

Dexie furrowed her brow, and after seeing the brand, she was surprised.These were the top three lipstick-producing companies?She was even more surprised. She quickly scanned the contents and finally looked at the inscription. Then, with a shocked expression on her face, she asked, “You... acquired the lipstick divisions of these three companies?”“Yes,” Luke pretended to act distant and casual, but his eyes couldn’t help but look at Dexie to observe her expression.“You...” Dexie was astonished and didn’t even know how to respond.When Luke saw Dexie’s expression, he wondered, Maybe Anna’s method worked? However, she didn’t look happy.Luke feared she didn’t understand the situation, so he added, “Don’t women like lipstick? Then I’ll give them to you!”Dexie’s eyes landed on the name of the purchaser. It was his name, and the identification number was also his.“You...” Dexie seemed to be at a loss for words as she said, “Buy a lipstick company and give it to me?”“Don’t you like it
A black Maybach exited the villa’s driveway. Luke was cursing inwardly.It was freezing outside; the temperature was minus eight degrees, and the snowfall was getting heavier. No one was on the road.Luke was inexplicably a little nervous. Dexie was terrified of the cold, and her hands and feet were always cold when she was outside. Although it hadn’t been long since they met, Luke remembered that.What would happen if she stayed outside on such a snowy day?After twenty minutes, he drove towards the bustling city but still didn’t see Dexie.Paying attention to both sides of the road, he didn’t drive fast, but he didn’t encounter a single pedestrian.He felt that something was wrong. There was no way Dexie could have walked so fast. Did a passing car pick her up?Very few cars were in this area, so it was even more unlikely that a private vehicle would pick up a stranger during such heavy snowfall. Taxis were also unlikely to come here.He called Melvin and asked him to check. Gavin w
Luke was paralyzed for a moment. He was a little frustrated but also distressed. What’s wrong with her? Even in her semi-conscious state, she insisted she didn’t want to go back to the Huxley family. What’s going on? After her parents returned safe and sound last night, she changed. She became depressed, so what was happening?Luke was very puzzled but didn’t ask further. Since she didn’t want to go home, they went to a hotel. He made a call to Gavin, who hurriedly said, “The hotel in the center of The Huxley Group just prepared a room for Miss Hansley so you can bring Miss Hansley.”“I see. Call a doctor and wait at the hotel. She seems to suffer from hypotherdexia, so she might have a fever.”After hanging up the phone, Luke focused on driving and increased the car's speed. Finally, after a little over half an hour, they arrived at the hotel.Dexie was still dazed. Luke hugged her and found she was trembling. Her body was also surprisingly hot to the touch. Luke wondered what was ha
After breakfast, they heard a knock on the door. Gavin stood up and said, “Sir, I brought the things.”With that, he looked inside and saw Dexie sitting on the sofa next to the bed. It seemed like they had reconciled. He felt a little relieved. He wanted nothing more than for everything to go well between his boss and Miss Hansley. After closing the door, Luke placed the marriage certificate in front of Dexie.“Look.”Dexie still couldn’t believe it. She took it from Luke and saw that it contained two red books. “Is this a marriage certificate?” Dexie still couldn’t believe it and asked Luke incredulously.Seeing Dexie’s surprised expression, Luke said, “Open it and look.” Dexie left the box on the table, took the marriage certificate, and examined it carefully. After looking at it, she was astonished.“It’s a marriage c
She had a fever last night. Later, Luke arrived and took her away immediately, but the other party did not take photos of Luke or them arguing. They only took a picture of Noah hugging her, so it was intentional.Since the other party only sent a carefully selected angle photo of Noah and her, the target was probably her or Noah.In that case, who could be the mastermind? What was the purpose of the other party? Regardless of the other party’s purpose, it would not be good for her or Noah in any way!More importantly, someone anonymously posted these photos. It would be easier to remove it if it were a media outlet, but it was a personal post. Here, if they wanted to remove it, they had to find the blogger.If the other party had malicious intentions, they probably couldn’t find that person so quickly.
"Yes, sir." Gavin lowered his head and didn't dare to ask more.Luke nodded and said, "I'll go back alone. You should stay and investigate the mole in the hotel."Gavin said, "Are you suspecting...""The hotel has always had strict security measures. Since that group of reporters could enter, the matter is probably not so simple."But, said Luke, "Investigate it for the sake of appearances."Luke's words had a hidden meaning, so Gavin looked at him puzzled, but then immediately nodded and said, "I understand."Dexie was a little confused, so Luke said, "Let's go home first, and I'll tell you on the way."Reporters couldn't enter the Huxley family's house.Dexie nodded and went to the garage with Luke. The car drove out, and the garage exit was crowded with reporters. They frantically took pictures of Luke's car.Probably because there were too many people, the security guards couldn't stop them all. Dexie frowned and gave Luke a worried look.Luke seemed calm and composed as he drove
