Neil didn’t expect Michelle to be such a heartless person. She wouldn’t even come back home after two days.

However, Neil rationalized that her behavior did make sense in a way. After all, the person she loved was still Jonah, not him.

In the morning, Neil went to the company after having his breakfast alone.

When the assistant spotted Neil’s sour look, he thought to himself, ‘What’s wrong with President Lawrence today? A few days ago, he was still in a good mood. If I strike up a conversation with him now, I’m sure I’ll be dead in a few seconds.’

Neil didn’t utter a single word for the entire morning. Around two in the afternoon, his phone rang.

It was from Raymond.

Raymond rarely called Neil. It got Neil thinking, ‘Did Michelle tell her father about what happened? Is Raymond calling to scold me?”

He felt Raymond wouldn’t just yell at him for no reason. However, who knew what Raymond would do? After all, Raymond loved Michelle dearly.

“Dad, what’s wrong?” Neil asked.

She would give them to Amber the next day.Neil enjoyed looking at Michelle’s back while she did the household chores.However, he felt deeply irked at Michelle’s attitude. She didn’t seem interested in reconciling with him at all.Michelle took out some hair tails from the fridge and passed them to Mrs. Harris to marinate them. Then, she went to grab some crabs.“Mrs. Harris, do you know how to prepare seafood?” Still squatting on the ground, Michelle looked up at Mrs. Harris, who was currently marinating the hair tail.Mrs. Harris turned to look at Neil, who was sitting on the sofa.He looked straight into Mrs. Harris’s eyes, and shook his head.So, she replied, “Madam, people in Genovia don’t really know how to prepare seafood. We’re from an inland city after all. I can prepare it for you, but I can’t guarant

    The next day when Michelle went to work, Amber asked about her relationship with Neil.Michelle: [Everything went back to normal.] Amber: [Did he explain anything to you?]Michelle: [He didn’t mention anything about our fight.]Amber: [He should apologize to you. How could he say something like that? You guys should really talk it out. Or else, it’ll still be a problem in the future when conflict arises. Whenever my husband and I get into fights, we always bring up our past conflicts to justify ourselves. Also, did you know that Neil has another house in Verrington town?]Since Michelle was still new to married life, she didn’t have much experience. Amber was already married to her husband for many years, so she knew what advice to give when it came to issues revolving around marriage.However, Michelle still didn’t understand what Amber was trying to say.Michelle: [I have to work. Talk to you later.] In fact, Michelle didn’t know that Neil owned another bungalow in Verringt

    Looking at Michelle’s pouting expression as she tried to blow her hair off her face, Neil found her very amusing. He really enjoyed that adorable side of her.Since Michelle had egg solution on her hands, she couldn’t touch her hair either.Looking at her helpless expression, Neil didn’t feel like watching her suffer anymore. He reached out and said, “Come here.”“Yes?” Michelle looked up curiously.Neil swiped her hair gently and placed the strands beside her forehead with his index finger.Michelle froze in place. Then, she said ‘thank you’ with a tense voice.Only then did she continue placing the snapper in the egg solution. Judging from her speed of marinating the fish, it was evident that she was distracted. It took her a while to return to her senses and focus on the task.Neil’s touch was warm. When his finger touched her forehead, it was as if he had touched her heart, which fluttered her so much that her cheeks grew red from embarrassment.As soon as Michelle finished

    After Michelle had dinner, she washed the dishes and went to sleep.Annoyed, she thought to herself, ‘Is he for real? It’s not fair! Why does he get to have sex with his ex, and I can’t even kiss Jonah? What an asshole!’For the next few days, the two of them went through their daily lives as if nothing happened. After they returned home from work, they would go back to their own rooms and avoid striking up conversations. Occasionally, Michelle would cook dinner and Neil would praise her in an overly-polite tone.Generally, they avoided talking about Jonah or Ariana.After a few days, Ariana finally returned from overseas.It was a Saturday, and Michelle was at home washing her clothes. After finishing some household chores, Michelle felt uncomfortable staying in the house with Neil. Neil was in his room reading a book with his bedroom door closed, but she still felt suffocated because they weren’t talking to each other. So, she decided to go outside.Michelle called Amber to che

    Though Amber saw it, she pretended not to. In her heart, however, she felt upset on Michelle’s behalf. She kept pointing toward the road to direct Michelle there.She thought Michelle was so focused on the road that she didn’t notice the terrible twosome.In fact, Michelle had already seen the sexy woman kissing Neil on the face. It was no wonder he hadn’t let her know that he had property here—his lover was staying here. Of course, it wasn’t like he was obligated to tell her anything. She was nothing to him.Based on the time, she didn’t think they had slept together yet. After all, she knew very well when he’d left the villa. They were probably going out for food first or something.Michelle knew that most rich married couples led their own lives, or the wife would choose to ignore her husband’s indiscretions as long as he provided for her financially. She, however, was only in her twenties—she still wanted to fall in love with someone and have a family. The way she saw it, since

    “He’s pretty good at basketball, isn’t he? You should buy him a few more clothes,” Amber said.In fact, her real intention was to make Neil feel guilty for cheating on Michelle. While he was with another woman, Michelle bought something for him.“Alright, then.” Michelle smiled.Though she came from a rich family, she wasn’t the materialistic type who loved to splurge. To Michelle, the most important aspect was an object’s functionality, so she wasn’t really into shopping. She only decided to come shopping with Amber because it had been too boring staying at home. Of course, she had no issue buying something for Neil while she was here. She noticed that he only had that one outfit for playing basketball.No matter how many mistresses he had, she had to make sure she did what was required of a wife. Even if they were to get divorced, she wouldn’t regret anything.Amber was excited as they browsed through the clothes. She kept dropping hints for Michelle to keep Neil in check, such

    “Oh, sure,” Michelle said cheerily. “Is there something going on today?”“Does something have to be going on for you to come over for a meal? Damien’s delighted that he caught a huge fish today, so he wants to cook dinner for us. Right, remember to bring Neil along. Is he with you?” Clarissa asked.After a pause, Michelle said, “Uh, I’m shopping with a colleague right now. He…should be at home.”“Oh. Give him a call and let him know, will you? You guys can come around five.”“Okay.”Amber curled her lips. When Michelle mentioned that someone was at home, she guessed that she was referring to Neil. Perhaps it was a call from Neil’s family. Whether Michelle had seen Neil, Amber still felt upset on her behalf. If Michelle had seen him, she was lying to cover up for him. Michelle didn’t deserve this at all! And even if she hadn’t seen him, Amber still felt bad for her.She really wanted to tell Michelle to ask Clarissa and Damien how they had raised their son to be like this.After

    As Neil thought about this, his phone rang. It was Michelle.He glanced at it before answering.“Hello?” At the same time, he glanced at Ariana.“Neil, Mom just called me and said that Dad caught a fish today, so they want us to go over for dinner tonight. What time will you get there if you drive on your own? Mom wants us to be there around five.” Michelle paused. “Are…are you still at home?”“Yeah, I am.”He noticed that though Ariana didn’t stop eating, she definitely slowed down.“Neil, you’re still the one who knows me best. I love all these dishes,” she suddenly said, almost as if she didn’t realize what she was doing.“Look, that’s all, right? Bye.” Neil hung up impatiently.He stared at Ariana.She continued to eat silently. Then, a lone teardrop fell onto her plate, and it only added to her beauty. She swallowed her food and pain without a word, and it made one’s heart ache for her.Then, the tears came rapidly, and she started to sob. Neil’s heart twisted.They use

    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.
