Her gaze shifted downward from her.
Staying in the middle position.
Britney followed Manuel's gaze...
Britney's work uniform was the kind of V-neck OL professional attire, although not revealing, Manuel's gaze was too blatant, as if he had already seen through it.
"Manuel, you..." Britney gritted her teeth, her ears turning red.
Thinking about last night, Manuel's hands were obedient for a while.
"Britney, I didn't say anything. Just eat your meal, it's getting late."
After Manuel's reminder, Britney looked at the time and indeed it was not early.
After they finished, Manuel accompanied Britney to the company.
On the road, Britney sat in the passenger seat.
"By the way, where did Bryant go?" It's been so long, I only saw him once at the wedding, and then he seemed to disappear halfway through.
"He was temporarily unemployed! He will continue to come to work after I leave," Manuel said calmly.
"Can it
Quinten took the file that Britney handed to him, glanced through its contents, and looked up to ask Britney, "What is this?""The chairman could take a closer look at the content," Britney explained while standing."Isn't that our company's spokesperson?" Quinten saw a familiar face."Yes, it's Angeline," Britney confirmed her father's question."Wasn't Angeline always healthy, lively, and positive?" Quinten looked at the picture, which contradicted his impression, and couldn't believe it."In the past, when choosing a spokesperson, I remember I participated in the voting. Among several popular celebrities, they were all very beautiful. This girl was youthful and sunny, and at that time, several senior executives and the Board of Directors had different opinions, but in the end, she was still chosen," Quinten recalled."People change! For example, Geovanni was very well-behaved when he was young, but as he grew up, it wasn't quite the same,
Karsyn looked ahead and there was Ernesto, wearing a lonely and cold expression on his face.What did he come back for?Ernesto pushed open the door and naturally saw Karsyn coming out of the bathroom. She was holding a box of Band-Aids and placed it on the glass table.Without making any pause, he left.Last night, after Karsyn rolled under the sofa, although he didn't inquire, he soon caught a faint smell of blood in the air. Being in his line of work, he was too sensitive to this scent.Seeing Ernesto's actions, Karsyn, who was far away, couldn't see clearly what he had in his hand. She approached and took a closer look, only to find out that it was a box of Band-Aids.What a strange person!Grabbing some Band-Aids, Karsyn chased after him."Ernesto, would you like to have a meal together?" Karsyn shouted to Ernesto, who was only a few steps away. Purely out of gratitude, she didn't like owing people favors.Anyway, s
Compared to Karsyn, who grew up in a wealthy family and paid little attention to his eating manners, Ernesto ate much more elegantly. Despite being involved in the underworld, Ernesto still had good manners and etiquette.Upon hearing Karsyn's words, Ernesto's actions came to a halt, "This has nothing to do with you."Karsyn pouted and continued eating the delicious food in front of her. Karsyn has always had a good appetite and is not very picky, so it is impossible for her to lose weight and become the current popular slim beauty. There was a time when she specifically tried to lose weight because Franklin didn't like overweight people, and that period of time was like going through hell.Smelling the aroma of meat, her stomach growled, and she lost ten kilograms in a month. After a month, she still couldn't control herself, and the result of indulging in excessive eating was not only gaining back her original weight but also adding another ten kilograms.
Britney let her soft hair down, removed her light makeup from the day, and her bare face added a touch of freshness. With her tall figure standing still, she was enticing enough to commit a crime without any movement."Wait for me!"After saying that, Manuel bypassed Britney and entered the bathroom.The sound of running water for a bath could be heard inside the room, while Britney stood restlessly, unsure of which posture or movement would be appropriate at this moment. The longer she waited, the faster her heart pounded, with a tendency to accelerate.I couldn't help but let my mind wander, wondering what I would have to face next.I don't know if it was because the air conditioner was on in the room or because she had just taken a shower, but she felt extremely hot.I lifted the soft silk quilt and got inside, covering myself completely, even my head. I did this to prevent my mind from wandering and overthinking.Even in her work,
There were still two days left for my period, but unexpectedly it came early this month.I don't know how long it had been, Britney lay in bed waiting for Manuel to come out of the bathroom.When Manuel emerged with a towel wrapped around his lower body, he exuded an air of indifference. He finally calmed down as before. He revealed a strong and powerful upper body, with a healthy and attractive wheat-colored skin, perfectly sculpted chest and abdominal muscles, slowly dripping with water droplets.Manuel lifted a corner of the blanket, and Britney immediately felt the cold air coming from his body.He actually took a cold shower."Manuel, are you okay?" Britney glanced up slightly, looking at him."It's okay! Go to sleep, I'll hold you." Manuel said as he held her, she shivered in his arms.Britney turned around and faced Manuel. His eyelashes were long and thick, complementing his narrow phoenix-like eyes, creating a captivating pro
The speaker is Axel.The words were filled with sarcasm."Mr. Gonzales, whether my married life was happy or not has nothing to do with this meeting. So, I won't report to Mr. Gonzales here. Next, I will report to the board of directors..."In this matter, Britney had no need to avoid it, but faced it head-on. In just a few words, she not only countered Axel but also shifted the focus to the main purpose of inviting them to the meeting today."Regarding the spokesperson of the Hammond Group.""Wasn't the company's spokesperson always a big celebrity named Angeline?" Jaylon couldn't quite remember the name."Yes, currently it is Angeline, but I have received reliable information and have hired a private detective to confirm the authenticity of the news! Directors, please take a look at the documents in front of you, every word and sentence on it is true, there is no falsehood!" Britney stood at the very end of the office, speaking confidently
Four women were standing in front of the sink, applying foundation and gossiping. Laughter filled the air until they saw Britney coming out from behind. Suddenly, the laughter ceased.On Britney's overly refined face, there was no expression. But the more it was like this, the more it made people feel an invisible pressure.The four women quickly packed up their belongings, preparing to find excuses to leave."Earlier, you were talking about me, right?" It is not a question, but a confirmation."No! We didn't say anything," one of the women said, shaking her head like a tambourine.Britney washed her hands clean and turned around to look at the four women in front of her, who were all bowing their heads. "Who said that I was caught cheating before marriage?"A few minutes of silence, and then a woman stood up. "It was me!""Who did you hear the rumors from?" Britney asked, her voice faint."I, I also... don't know! I also heard
She understood this matter clearly.Not giving the other party any chance for speculation, it benefits neither the other party nor oneself.However, Conrad was well aware that if he directly mentioned the matter, Britney would definitely get up and leave, refusing to have dinner with him.The closer it got to her and Manuel's wedding date, the worse he felt. Whenever he thought about some things that would happen after their marriage, he became extremely restless.Especially the last time, he clearly saw Britney's perfect figure and imagined her lying in another man's arms one day, and he couldn't calm down no matter what.Originally, their wedding couldn't take place as planned, but then a problem arose with the company's new project, which completely occupied him. However, later on, he had someone investigate and found out that this incident was not a coincidence. Someone had been secretly manipulating it, and they had done it without leaving any
"I did too." Following that, the others all left one after another.The conference room was left with only Britney, Malia, and Quinten...This was the first time in history that all members of the Board of Directors left as a result.In the end, this meeting ended in failure."Britney..." Quinten broke the silence.Britney was not discouraged at all and remained confident. "Chairman, according to the original plan, I will deliver the new proposal to you before noon, with half of the planned quantity.""Okay," Quinten felt relieved when he saw her attitude. He had originally wanted to comfort her, but it seemed that he had overthought it.For large-scale projects, if the chairman rejects it, an application can be submitted to the Board of Directors. If the majority of votes agree, then it can be implemented. It is relatively democratic.Britney disagreed with the chairman, who happened to be her father, and was dissatisfied with
Britney felt the smell of alcohol wafting from Manuel's mouth, and gradually she began to wonder if she was getting drunk. She also felt an increasingly intense heat emanating from his body, making her feel uncomfortable all over.She squirmed in his arms, pushing against his chest.But the more she moved, the harder he pushed."Um... Manuel..." she squeaked and mumbled incessantly, unsure if the man had even heard her.The water in the glass was constantly shaking and spilling.Clusters of water stains soaked into the ground, resembling plum blossoms.Britney thought that this man must have been sober, otherwise how could he have taken the glass from her hand with his eyes closed, and placed it so easily on the marble table behind him?Britney witnessed all of this with her own eyes. In a moment of distraction, the man took advantage of it effortlessly.Long time ago...Lip splitting..."Britney, I wanted..."
Butler Parker saw Britney coming downstairs and started setting the table."Madam, please come over for dinner! The gentleman is expected to come back later.""Hmm!" Britney walked into the glass dining room.She sat down, and the whole round table was empty except for her, making it appear particularly spacious.On the table were delicately arranged three dishes and a bowl of nourishing soup, along with a bowl of rice. Although it was prepared for her alone, it was evident that it would be enough for two or three people."Parker, sit down and eat with us!" Britney said as she picked up her fork, addressing Parker who was standing nearby."Madam, please go ahead and eat! I need to go back to the kitchen to attend to something.""Sit down and let's eat together! There's so much food, I can't finish it all by myself." It feels strange for her to eat alone when Manuel is not here."The lady will eat first, I will go and come back.
Karsyn had ten thousand grass mud horses in her mind!But thinking about Franklin, she endured!Karsyn couldn't have imagined a day like this, being so friendly to her rival."Franklin, tonight's dinner plans are settled, okay..." Miranda said with a smile, speaking affectionately to Franklin.Karsyn felt uncomfortable on the side.To be honest, she really wanted to tell Miranda that she was Franklin's girlfriend, the real girlfriend! She wanted her to get lost... go wherever she came from...Karsyn first realized that she could disregard everything except for the man by her side! She also realized for the first time that she had a temper, but couldn't express it."Hmm." Franklin's voice was soft and faint."I'm leaving now! Franklin, Ms. Melton, bye." Miranda smiled satisfactorily, waved and left.Karsyn watched as Miranda's skirt gracefully fluttered, as if silently showing off."What's wrong? Not happy?" Frankl
Others may not understand, but Karsyn would not be unaware.Just now in the room, she had just scolded Andreas.The future brother-in-law that Andreas mentioned, definitely isn't Franklin."Franklin?" Glenn asked. He was unaware of what was happening between Karsyn and Andreas in the room. All he knew was that his daughter was currently dating Franklin."How could it be him?" Andreas expressed disgust."Who was that?" Glenn looked confused.Karsyn didn't even have time to wipe off the milk on her body, her eyes glaring, she immediately stepped forward and threatened, "Andreas, try saying that again!"Not messing with him is like going to heaven!Andreas immediately jumped aside and darted out of the door."Did Andreas say Ernesto?" Glenn looked at Karsyn, asking with confusion.Karsyn glared at Glenn and said, "It wasn't him!"After speaking, he walked outside. He had only taken a few steps when he realized
In the car, Stephanie and Jamiya sat in the back seats."Daughter, don't scare me..."Stephanie leaned on Jamiya, tears flowing freely."Mom, why? Why?""It's okay, daughter. Let's go to another place and have Stephanie checked again. My grandson won't be so fragile..." Jamiya wiped the tears off Stephanie's face."Change hospitals? Change hospitals, will it make a difference? The best hospital, Goldmoor, has confirmed that it's a stillborn. Can any other hospital bring my child back to life?" Stephanie sobbed uncontrollably. The facade of strength she had just put on crumbled in this moment.She just didn't understand why a good child like hers had died. Why did it have to be her child?I was already being very careful...She was so looking forward to the arrival of the child... Why did they have to deprive her of the right to be a mother, even taking away this little bit of happiness.Jamiya frowned and couldn't think
The middle-aged doctor looked nervous, even his movements were somewhat frantic.Rylee saw the situation, her face changed slightly, without asking further, she immediately approached and took the instrument from the middle-aged doctor's hand."Dr. Nixon, what's wrong? This is..." Jamiya sensed something was off and asked, "Is there something wrong with my grandson?""Dr. Nixon..." Stephanie, lying in bed, sat up slightly and became nervous as well."Don't get worked up, let me take another look," Rylee reassured Stephanie's emotions. As Stephanie lay back down, she raised the instrument in her hand and calmly slid it over Stephanie's stomach, probing, her eyes never leaving the screen...As Jamiya watched the doctor's increasingly solemn expression, she held Stephanie's hand and asked, "Doctor, are my daughter and my grandson okay?"Rylee squeezed a little more transparent liquid onto Stephanie's belly and conducted another examination.
The resignation of ordinary employees does not bring much impact to the company. However, it is a different story for the company's senior management, and even for long-serving employees."It is best to prevent certain things from happening in the first place, but to be so bold as to challenge the company directly. That shows that he is not afraid of offending the company, he has a backup plan."Quinten looked at his daughter, whom he had raised for twenty-four years, in astonishment. She calmly and eloquently described the complicated relationship, analyzing the situation with her sharp mind. She displayed a calm and composed demeanor, far from the inexperienced young woman who had just entered the workforce. Instead, she seemed like someone who had been in the professional world for many years, handling matters with composure and confidence."If he was trying to use this backdoor to gain the company's favor, I don't think it was necessary," Britney pursed her
"Wait a minute!" Britney looked up from the documents.Malia stopped in her tracks and asked, "Team leader, do you have any further instructions?""Has Barrett been with the company for a few years?" Britney casually asked.Malia thought for a moment, "Barrett, it should have been over ten years, he is considered a senior member of the company. What's wrong, team leader?""Not a big deal. You can go down."Malia was a little stunned by Ms. Hammond's question, but she didn't ask any more and gently closed the door when she left.After Malia left, Britney went through the materials she brought one by one. After confirming that there were no issues, she took the files and went directly to the floor where the chairman was located, using the elevator.The chairman's secretary saw that it was Britney, and did not stop her, and told her that the chairman was inside.She knocked on the door of the chairman's office, and waited for perm
