Jacob's car drove very quickly. The window was open, and the wind blew in. He turned on the stereo, and the sound inside was deafening. When the traffic light turned red, a motorcycle rider stopped beside his car and said, "Are you crazy?"Jacob raised his head and whistled, as if saying, "It's none of your business."The other party seemed to have turned his head to look at Jacob's passenger seat. Jacob quickly rolled up the window.It was precisely because of Jacob's action of raising the car window that Natasha felt that he was quite valued in his heart.Seeing Jacob's reaction, the other party had no choice but to drive away.Natasha could not help but laugh when she saw Jacob like this.Jacob was different from most of the men she knew. He was a little crazy and childish, like a little boy.Of course, she knew very few people.When the two of them reached the moat, Jacob took off his jacket and only wore a long-sleeved T-shirt before standing by the bridge.Natasha only l
"It's very beautiful in Tashall. Many good movies are made in Tashall. The scenery in Tashall is also very beautiful," Natasha said with a smile.Jacob suddenly felt that he was very ignorant in front of Natasha. He turned around and shouted at the calm river.Natasha followed. Their voices rose and fell on the river. Then, the two of them looked at each other and smiled."Do you think butterflies can fly across the sea?" Natasha looked at the river and suddenly asked Jacob.Jacob seemed to have heard the word "children's play" and felt that Natasha's idea was quite childish. "Those are all jokes in romance novels. The jokes of young girls are not mine.""You don't believe me?" Natasha asked Jacob."I don't believe you."Natasha said proudly, "There's really a type of Crome Butterfly in South America that can fly across the Pacific Ocean, but they have to stop and rest."Jacob knew that Natasha's father was researching this. He turned around and leaned against the railing of th
Natasha had a strained relationship with her mother since she was young. She felt her mother was distant from her earliest memories and lacked care for her. Her father took care of her studies and daily life, and even her first-period supplies were bought by him.Of course, her mother excelled in the film industry. As an adult, Natasha consoled herself, thinking that her mother was too busy with work to focus on her.Due to the lack of communication with her mother, Natasha had been traveling the world with her father for years, while her mother lived alone in the US.Following her father's instructions, she made a phone call to her mother. Their conversation was brief and uneventful, and she quickly hung up.Despite this, her mother supported her career and knew Natasha's interest in movies. She even personally guided Natasha and took her works to exhibitions. It must be said that her mother played a significant role in her achievements. Without her support, Natasha might still be
It was all ancient history, rarely mentioned, and no one would be foolish enough to bring it up in front of the parties involved. So, neither Natasha nor Queta knew about it."It seems like some people don't mind getting involved with other men and even having another man's child," Jacob said, stroking his chin as he was intrigued."Jacob! Don't follow in their footsteps and put the Lawrance family in the spotlight," Joshua scolded Jacob."I never said it was about you," Jacob retorted.Joshua gives Jacob a look as if to say, "The child is impossible to teach." He replied, "Just don't mess around. We don't want this kind of thing in our family! Being gossiped about for decades, we won't escape that fate even if we have children in the future."Joshua went back to his room, leaving Jacob alone in his room to smoke.After finishing one cigarette, he also returned to his bedroom.The next day, he received a call from his assistant before he went to work. There were two urgent matte
Natasha picked up the walkie-talkie and said to the cameraman, "Pay attention to the composition, it should be beautiful."Jacob looked up at the scenery on the set; indeed, it was beautiful. Love needs a beautiful backdrop."What are you here for today?" Natasha asked Jacob."Oh..." Jacob thought of saying that he came to supervise, but since he's not going over, he found an excuse, "Just to see you."Hearing this stirred up Natasha's girlish heart."What's beautiful about me?" she mumbled."Don't you know how beautiful you are? Or do you want me to say it out loud?" He shrugged.This made her heart flutter even more. Indeed, love was just a fleeting moment.Her heart was in turmoil.Although Jacob didn't send the flowers, he still had Zoe on his mind. What does he really think? Or does he find it amusing to flirt with someone who has social anxiety?Last night, Queta called her and said Jacob didn't refuse to send Natasha home. It seemed he had feelings for her, making her
Jacob asked, "Do you still not have a car in Genovia? Let's go together to buy one another day. The company will pay for it. As for the house, you can temporarily stay in a hotel. We'll talk about the housing situation after the company moves."Herald replied, "No need, Mr. Jacob. I'll buy the car with my own money.""Don't bother about it," Jacob said firmly. "How about Saturday? Saturday morning, we'll go to the largest car dealership in Genovia.""Alright," Herald agreed.He understood the principle of reciprocity. Since Jacob was so generous, he would naturally accept it. The condition was to provide better services and be dedicated to the company's success.The two of them continued discussing the integration of company departments. Herald suggested developing the"high-end bodyguard business. Although the company still made money from the low-end security business, securing important clients in Genovia would greatly enhance the company's reputation, setting it apart from othe
Queta went to open the door, and Jacob and Herald walked in.She was quite surprised. After all, she was just an employee. How could she be capable of having the CEO and the Vice CEO come to visit her father? She felt both respectful and fearful.Queta introduced the two CEOs to Brook.Brook was also very courteous. He had already known that Jacob was from the Lawrance family, and now he felt even more respectful that Jacob had come to see him in person.Jacob glanced at Natasha and said, "You're here too?""Yeah, I came to see my uncle," she replied quietly, sitting opposite them.Brook looked at her and said, "Over the years, I owe you an apology.""Uncle, don't say that," She felt a bit embarrassed, and her social anxiety escalated.They didn't discuss this topic any further.Jacob thought to himself, “He does owe you an apology. He took away your biological mother and your biological mother gave birth to you and then gave you to your biological father, Jonas. From then on,
Jacob glanced at Queta, who was talking with Herald, and said, "Don't you think you and Queta look somewhat alike?""We are cousins, so it's normal to resemble each other!" she replied.He smiled mysteriously and remained silent.A sudden realization struck Natasha, "Could it be that Jacob meant something more than just us being cousins?"She didn't quite understand the implications, but he seemed to insinuate that their relationship was more than just that of cousins. Perhaps he was hinting at something... like incestuous relationships, such as an uncle being involved with his sister-in-law, and then she gave birth to two children...She worked in the filming industry and knew all kinds of plotlines. In any case, this situation couldn't escape the label of "incest."How could he pry into someone's privacy like this?She stared at him with hatred and a desire to tear him apart. Her feelings were evident in her gaze.Instantly, he felt a bit horrified by her intense stare."Jac
Benjamin walked to her side and suddenly hugged her. It was as if there were thousands of words that could not be said. Jacey did not refute. It was as if the two of them had known each other for a long time. It was as if they had known each other for a long time."Your mother did a good job with this exhibition," Jacey said."It's good. After all, you're an expert in this field," Benjamin said. "Or if you have any requests when you get married, tell my mother and let her customize the most beautiful jewelry for you.""Married?" Jacey didn't understand.She had never thought about marriage. Why did she feel so close to her when Benjamin mentioned it?She still felt quite confused."I'll treat you to a meal later?" Benjamin said. "What do you want to eat?"Jacey's eyes lit up. "Hotpot? How about a hotpot?"Benjamin smiled and said, "I thought you had a profound hobby. This is it."Jacey smiled again.Jacey didn't like the feeling of being surrounded by people, so she chose the
Kenny smoked as he spoke. He had the look of a veteran in society. It was hard not to believe that he was a nouveau riche who did not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of his subordinates to save money."Sir, you've found the right person. Come and take a look." The workshop owner said. Then, he whispered a few words into Kenny's ear and asked, "Can you accept it?""What's so unacceptable about that? I'm definitely showing it to Party A. These people grew up in the countryside. What kind of milk have they drunk? I can't tell if it's true or not," Kenny said."Alright, alright," the workshop owner said with a smile."Just don't make it obvious. I'll go take a look at the manufacturing workshop." Kenny said.The owner of the workshop was initially quite shy, but Kenny said that he had ordered a lot, so the other party agreed.As soon as he entered the workshop, Jacey secretly turned on the pinhole camera when the workshop owner was not paying attention and filmed the production proce
Jacey felt that under Kenny's serious and unsmiling appearance, there was a soft and warm heart.This note looked like it had been around for a long time. It was unknown how long Kenny searched last night before he found it and gave it to Jacey so easily.Jacey left.However, she did not expect that something would happen on her first day there.She brought a vacuum camera and made her clothes look like rural women's. After finding the milk production point, she said that she wanted to order milk in large quantities because she heard that the milk here was very cheap.The people in the workshop looked at each other and said, "I'm not selling!"The people in the workshop were very smart and vigilant. Their workshop had a fixed delivery channel. This woman was alone and was unlikely to be here to order. They found an excuse and sent Jacey away.No matter how much Jacey dawdled, the other party refused to let her in.For a moment, Jacey didn't know what to do. She was quite depres
Jacey was a little stunned. She really didn't know much about what the parents were talking about.Moreover, she hadn't interacted with Benjamin for a few days. Moreover, when Ashlyn came to visit this time, she didn't say a word about him. It made her feel very uneasy. She even wondered if he didn't mean that at all. It was all her own wishful thinking…For the past few days, Benjamin had not come to look for Jacey. She had not contacted him either.However, a few days later, Jacey received a Whatsapp message from Benjamin. There were many photos. It was a rather high-class living room. There were boxes in the living room. The living room was simple and noble, like a top-notch courtyard house.[This is the showroom and display cabinet for my mother's medieval jewelry. How about letting your mother take a look?] Benjamin said.[Where is this place? This place is so beautiful.][My mother's dowry. The courtyard house in Genovia.] Benjamin said.Jacey thought to herself, "As expec
Today, Benjamin had already returned home."How is it? How's your first time meeting your in-laws alone?" Calvin teased Ashlyn."It's quite good. I'm preparing to hold a medieval jewelry exhibition and then let my employees learn medieval video skills. I said that I wanted to use their jewelry as an exhibition, but they didn't even want the deposit. How generous," Ashlyn said lazily as she leaned against the sofa."It's… it's over?" Calvin looked at Ashlyn and said in surprise.Benjamin sat there and smiled."What else?" Ashlyn asked."What are you going to do this time? Aren't you going to look for your daughter-in-law? Did you see what she looked like?" Calvin poured a cup of tea for Ashlyn.After so many years, Ashlyn still hadn't changed from her usual macho self. In fact, she was even more macho than before. Perhaps Calvin had been the one to deal with everything after marriage, developing Ashlyn's habit of not using her brain.Of course, it only meant that she didn't use
For some reason, Ashlyn felt like crying when she saw this. In the past, these jewelry had traveled to another country. Now, these jewelry were all back with stories.She thought about how the person who owned these jewelry had brought them overseas and brought them back…She felt that the Irving family was worthy of admiration.Linda had gone out at some point. Seeing that Ashlyn was looking at her very seriously, she didn't disturb her.When she came in again, she was carrying a cup of coffee. The fragrant Americano she'd just ordered from the coffee machine on the first floor. It was made from good coffee beans.She handed the coffee to Ashlyn."Have a cup of coffee when you're tired. Anyway, these jewelry don't have long legs. They won't run away on their own," Linda said. "You can come and take a look whenever you want. I've always been here."Only then did Ashlyn feel that she had been watching for an hour or two, but she had always been like a pious primary school student
On Saturday afternoon, Ashlyn drove to Jacey's house, a very simple villa.Ashlyn knew that writers liked to live in such a quiet place because they had inspiration in such a place.Jacey's mother, Linda, was already standing on her steps to welcome her.Linda was dressed in a Chinese-style robe. She looked very ancient, but because she was slender, she looked especially good. She looked like a fairy.Ashlyn was dressed in a very fashionable modern outfit. She was wearing a knee-length skirt, pearl earrings, and earrings. She looked especially round and beautiful. One look and one could tell that she was the kind of person who had never experienced the blow of life."I'm Jacey's mother. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Conrad." Linda reached out and held Isobel's hand. "Jacey said that you're coming to our house to take a look. I am so happy. I specially brought all the jewelry from the other houses here and packed them up. If these jewelry can be displayed in the exhibition and let everyon
"Excuse me, how did you know about me?" Jacey asked."Oh, Benjamin's phone was on the table that day. He went to the washroom and I happened to see the photo album he was looking through. I picked it up and saw these few pieces of jewelry. You know it too. As jewelry makers, we won't let go of those rare jewelry no matter what. I asked Benjamin where these pieces of jewelry came from and he told me about you," Ashlyn said neither servile nor overbearing.She understood a girl's mentality very well. She knew that if the woman found out that the man had taken the initiative to leak her news to her parents, she would be very disgusted and feel passive. Therefore, she did not say that. Instead, she said that she had seen it herself. She even said that Benjamin was looking at these photos at that time.Jacey's heart would probably feel warm. After all, a man was looking at her photo behind her back. She should have a good impression of this man.Jacey really thought so. When she heard A
After Benjamin returned home, he showed Ashlyn the jewelry he had taken for Jacey.Ashlyn was very knowledgeable. One look at this jewelry and she knew that it was priceless.Moreover, the girl wearing the jewelry also had extremely good skin and was extremely delicate.Calvin, who was sitting at the side, also watched.However, Ashlyn didn't just look at the jewelry. She said, "You only bought jewelry. Who is this person wearing jewelry behind you?"Ashlyn asked Benjamin gossipily."Don't ask," Benjamin said.Ashlyn smiled. "You said that you only took photos of the jewelry but didn't take photos of her. Aren't you trying to arouse my curiosity? Now that I'm curious, you're not making a move. However, I've been working on researching National Jewelry recently, so I'm lacking samples in this area. When are you going to ask this girl out? Let me take a closer look. From her appearance, I think she's dressed very well. Moreover, I can see her face from her bone structure. I think
