When Michelle was cleaning up the mess on the table, she turned around and bent down at the trash can.“Did Miss Blackhorn tell you when the necktie will arrive?” Neil asked, turning around all of a sudden and asked.Right now, Neil could see her cleavage clearly, with two of her nipples hanging delicately on her breasts.Neil trembled as the image of her body that night flooded his mind. He was yearning for her again.Michelle didn’t expect Neil to turn around at all. Her mind was blank, and she didn’t know how to react.“Uh, she’ll notify me when the ties are here.” Michelle lowered her head in an odd angle to block his view.“Just use the money in the credit card to pay Miss Blackhorn. Or, you could use the money in the savings account I created for you. There’s around 200k in there. I’ll just treat it as a gift to the client,” Neil said.“Okay.” Michelle didn’t move an inch. Her posture was still the same as before.“Can you buy two more ties for me if it’s possible?” he as
“Why aren’t you hiding them anymore?” Neil asked.“Hide what?” Michelle ate the fish and chips with a satisfied expression. She was proud of her work.Neil was almost glowering at her chest area. Michelle could feel an intense stare directed at her boobs. He asked, “You were hiding them from me yesterday night, weren’t you?”“Didn’t you ask me to stop hiding them? I thought about it and what you said made sense. So, I’m not hiding them anymore. I mean, there are chances that I’ll bump into you showering in the future. I don’t think we have to be uncomfortable with seeing each other naked. As you said, we’ve slept before, so it’s nothing new.” Michelle was looking down at her food, her delicate eyelashes glimmering under the lights.Neil was speechless.After they had breakfast, Neil went to work.When Michelle arrived at her company, her boss commended her for making Mavis Blackhorn’s exhibition a success. At first, her boss wanted Michelle to take on a few more projects before g
In fact, Michelle wasn’t at all aware of what New East Corporation was doing. She had never visited New East before. Clarissa had only filled her in on some details.“Sure. Just ask her to come to my company. We can talk about it,” Neil said.“When are you free?”Neil looked at his watch. “Come to the company now. I’ll treat you two to lunch.”“Okay.”After Michelle told Mavis the news, Mavis was elated. It was only a shot in the dark. She didn’t expect it to actually work.She grabbed Michelle’s hands and said, “Michelle, I’m forever indebted to you! When you were introducing my work to the clients at the exhibition, you seemed like you were more familiar with my work than myself. It’s because of you that the clients trusted me to buy my products.”“I’m only doing my job,” Michelle said humbly.“I’ve worked with a lot of companies before. They were only focused on their field of work. None of them knew the exact details of my products at all, unlike you. You knew the origins o
Michelle was as curious as a baby. Sometimes, she would look up at the ceiling and sometimes, she would look at the walls. She would even look at the water dispenser in his office. To her, everything in Neil's office just looked expensive."What are you looking at?" At first, Neil and Mavis were in a serious discussion, but he was distracted by Michelle's odd behavior. "It's nothing. Please continue your discussion," Michelle said."You two look very cute together," Mavis complimented with a smile.Just like that, their discussion was a wrap. Neil had given Mavis the authority to utilize his material processing factory to manufacture her friend's designs. Since Neil's company had only manufactured middle-end products, working with Mavis might lead his industry into a new field of manufacturing high-end designer clothing. Not only would he be earning profits, but he would also increase New East's reputation as well. Without thinking much about it, he agreed to the partnership.Aro
Ariana was shocked to discover that Michelle knew her name. It seemed Michelle's marriage with Neil wasn't just on the surface level. Judging from how she was giving him the neckties, they had been communicating with each other constantly.All of a sudden, Ariana felt betrayed by Neil. He told her that he had never had sex with Michelle before, but it was obviously a lie!Ariana bit her lip. She had to admit, Michelle was indeed very beautiful. She was so beautiful that she could stand out among a crowd. Her face was so fair and naturally glossy, Ariana couldn't even compare with layers of makeup."Thank you." Since Mavis was their guest of the day, Neil didn't want to cause a commotion for fear of tarnishing the Lawrence's family's reputation. After he reached for the neckties, he examined them meticulously and placed them back into the packaging."Why don't you go back for now? I'll call you afterwards," Neil said to Ariana."Miss Fergusen, do you want to join us for lunch? Don'
Michelle knew this partnership would definitely bring fortune to New East in the long run. Although New East was just assisting in manufacturing the designs and didn't earn much profit from it, this partnership was still a pathway to open more doors in the fashion industry overseas. Since Michelle's father was a businessman, naturally, Michelle would think like one as well. Thus, she was determined to do her best to maintain this business opportunity.Although Michelle wasn't involved in the deal after it was passed on to Neil, she actually played an important part in mediating the two parties. Michelle's efforts might seem like nothing to Neil, but without Michelle, the opportunity wouldn't even be there in the first place.Michelle called Neil and offered her advice in the contract, to which Neil replied:"So what? Do you want me to thank you?" Neil snapped with a sarcastic tone. He was still irked by Michelle's attitude when speaking to Ariana."Of course not. In the end, the
Neil was still on the way home."Oh, right. Your mom wants to ask you about something," Damien said all of a sudden. Then, he passed the phone to Clarissa."What?" Neil found it strange. Why couldn’t Damien just tell him what Clarissa wanted to say?"Neil, how is Michelle? Does she feel uncomfortable lately?" Clarissa asked excitedly.Neil frowned slightly. "What do you mean by uncomfortable?""You idiot! Is Michelle pregnant?" Clarissa thought, 'If she's pregnant, I'll take care of her personally.'Damien had already told Clarissa that Michelle was the lucky charm of the Lawrence family. After Clarissa heard that, she grew fonder of her daughter-in-law."I don't think so. Actually, I'm not sure. I'll ask her later," Neil said.It couldn't be, because he had only ever had sex with her once. Besides, Michelle didn't seem listless these days either.However, he thought it best to ask Michelle about it, just so Clarissa wouldn't nag at him for being an irresponsible husband.Whe
Although Neil’s mind was preoccupied with his hatred for Michelle, he still had to clean the dishes for her.After he was done with the dishes, he sat on the sofa and texted Ariana.Neil: [Where are you? I want to see you. When are you free?]Ariana: [I’m always free.]In fact, Neil didn’t miss Ariana at all. He was actually just offended by Michelle’s bold statement. How dare she trample on his dignity! He wanted to prove that he, too, could make a woman yearn for him.He wanted to prove it to Michelle by fucking Ariana.However, Neil knew he couldn’t meet Ariana in Genovia. If he didn’t come back home for the entire night or left the company halfway through the day, Calvin would definitely report his absence to Damien. The last time Neil sent Ariana to the hospital, Calvin was the one who snitched on him to Damien. Because of that, they couldn’t stay at Verrington Town anymore.Neil: [I’ll be heading to Ocean City these few days to visit a factory. Do you want to meet me there
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
