Neil pulled out a cigarette and lit it.

“Oh, what a coincidence! They really are in the same place. Do you wanna ask them to take care of Michelle?” Calvin asked.

“Do I look like an idiot?” Neil snapped. Why would he ask a bunch of men to watch over his wife?

“True. It’s not something you’d do.”

After some thought, Neil asked, “Did Jonah go to the museum?”

“Jonah?” Calvin was obviously surprised by Neil suddenly bringing Jonah up. “Why are you suddenly asking about him? Well, I can check if you want.”

“Nah, forget it.” Neil’s hand was trembling.

He was sure he didn’t want Calvin to ask because he didn’t have the guts to listen to the answer. Jonah and Michelle were exes, and they had a strong emotional foundation.

It was too late, though. Calvin had already asked Jonah, and said to Neil, “Yeah, he did. In fact, he was the one who suggested it.”

Neil’s expression changed at this. “I fucking told you not to ask! Why’d you still do it?”

Calvin was confused.

    Mrs. Cross knew Neil only sounded tough on the outside and kept many things to himself so that he wouldn’t be embarrassed, so she merely smiled and handed him his food without saying anything else.Neil had another busy day at the office. When he got off work, he went to Michelle’s place. It was filled with a nice floral scent, and felt cozy. He ordered some takeout and threw it into the trash can, wanting to leave it there so that Michelle would see it and realize how pitiful he was.That night, he lay on the bed they’d once shared and hugged her pillow while taking in her scent. There was a strand of her long hair on the pillow, which he put on the bedside table. Her bed was soft, and he had a good night’s sleep.The following afternoon at work, Calvin suddenly burst into his office. At that moment, Neil was signing some documents.“Neil, your mother called me just now to tell me that Michelle’s going to be back soon, and she wanted me to go pick her up from the airport. You’re f

    Calvin kept making small talk with Michelle, but no matter how many times he tried to lead the conversation to Neil, Michelle refused to take the bait.“What’s wrong? Did you and Neil get into a fight?” he asked.“No.” Her face fell immediately. She couldn’t even be bothered to talk about Neil.Calvin only knew that there were three people in their marriage, thanks to Neil’s ambiguous relationship with his ex-girlfriend. However, wasn’t aware of Michelle’s ex. In fact, her ex was the main coach of the basketball team they had acquired! To Calvin, if Neil and Michelle were to get into a fight, it definitely had to be Neil’s fault. Calvin knew Neil well, and he knew that Neil’s difficult and nitpicky personality made it hard to communicate with Neil. Neil had his strengths, of course—he was clever, and he had led New East Corporation to greater heights. He was also wise, but these qualities only made him a good leader. It couldn’t make up for the things he lacked in his personal life,

    Meanwhile, on the way to Amber’s place.Calvin’s car was luxurious, and the engine was very silent. Amber seemed to be affected by this silence.Though she and Michelle got along well, Michelle didn’t give off the vibe of someone rich, and she had always been easygoing. Over time, Amber had even forgotten that Michelle came from a rich family. To her, Michelle was lucky enough to marry someone rich, making Amber long for that same luck.After all, Amber had already dumped a piece of trash. It was time for her to move on with someone outstanding.“We’re here.” When they arrived at the old neighborhood where Amber was staying, Calvin turned his head slightly to speak to Amber, who was in the back seat.Amber felt a little embarrassed at having him find out she was staying in such a rundown place.“Uh, Mr. Conrad, do you want to come up for a cup of coffee?” she asked.“No, I still have something to attend to,” he said. His tone was no longer the relaxed one it had been when he’d s

    Michelle and Neil sat next to each other, thanks to the orchestrations of the others. They still didn’t speak to each other, though.Everyone could see that something was wrong, and it made Clarissa anxious. On the other hand, Damien continued to eat like nothing was wrong.At around 9:00 pm, Calvin went home. After that, it was time for Neil and Michelle to leave.He put her luggage into the car.“Where to?” he asked.“Let’s head to my place first,” she said. Then, she got into the passenger seat.They drove on in silence for a long while. When they were almost at Michelle’s place, Neil suddenly asked, “What did you buy for me?”Michelle was slightly taken aback by this sudden question, but she quickly regained her composure and said, “Oh, right.”She pulled an exquisite ashtray out of her bag. It was lined with gold and had an oil painting printed on it. It looked very high-end.“Here you go.” She put it on the dashboard close to him.That appeased him a little.“An ashtra

    Neil’s hormones started raging. Finally, he swept Michelle into his arms and headed toward the bed.He had abstained for several days now. Why did he still have to hold back now that she was here?Michelle didn’t know where the detergent on her hands had ended up—perhaps on his body or on the bed. Wherever it is, it left her hands feeling dry and sticky.Neil was full of energy. They went on for a couple of hours, leaving her with bruises and marks everywhere.When they were done, he let out a sigh of relief before lighting a cigarette.“Don’t smoke. I bought you an ashtray, didn’t I? Stub it out.” Michelle had her back to him, and she didn’t sound too pleased. It was odd that she didn’t feel sleepy this time. On the contrary, she felt rather annoyed. Then again, she was always annoyed when she was with him.“Where is it?” Neil asked.“In my bag. Get it yourself!”And so he did. He probably had to rummage around for it because it took him a long time to return.Michelle starte

    Neil, infuriated, and pinned her to the bed without a second thought.“I’m no match for him, huh?” He forced out through gritted teeth. “He’s better than me, huh?”“You’re a dimwit! A jerk!” Michelle was angry as well.Her words only served to make him angrier. They went for another round.Michelle’s remark about Jonah being able to do her through the night reverberated in his mind. Fuck! He had never felt this insulted in his life. This time, he was going to do her through the night as well.The sky slowly became brighter as dawn approached. Michelle’s brain was nothing but a pile of goo, and she seemed to be permanently pinned to the bed. She was starving, but she couldn’t move at all. She couldn’t be bothered to talk to Neil, falling asleep almost immediately.Neil was exhausted as well. He, too, soon fell asleep. He ended up skipping work and didn’t hear Calvin calling him several times because his phone was on silent.Calvin thought about it. Michelle had just gotten back t

    After hanging up, Clarissa muttered, “Why are they at Michelle’s apartment?”“What?” Damien asked.“Neil said that they’re at Michelle’s apartment.”Damien didn’t say anything. He didn’t think there was anything wrong with staying somewhere small; this reminded him of when he had stayed at Clarissa’s mother’s apartment. It was tiny, and he could still remember how her beauty had lit the apartment up. These past few years, he rarely brought these things up with Clarissa. Perhaps it was because she wouldn’t understand where he was coming from.…Michelle brought her food to the table. She glanced at what Neil had cooked, then said, “You offered to cook for me when that’s all that you managed to do?”“So you’ll do the cooking from now on!”Michelle was lost for words. There was nothing she could say since she had brought this upon herself.It looked like she wouldn’t be getting any work done today. Since she was full of energy, she decided to watch a movie after eating. She would

    When Michael and Ariana got to the bar, Neil was already there and smoking. They sat down next to him.“What are you doing here?” he asked Ariana.To the current Neil, Ariana was more like a stranger than anything else. He no longer felt how he used to, and he couldn’t understand why his feelings had disappeared. In fact, he felt a little disheartened by his change of heart.“I happened to call Michael, and he told me you two were meeting here, so I came along.” Ariana looked at him seductively.Neil continued to drink while watching the pole dancers, his mind still filled with thoughts of Michelle sneaking away to catch a movie on her own.He had slept the whole day away, so he wasn’t sleepy and only left the bar around 4:00 a.m. He’d had a few drinks, and Michael could barely keep his eyes open, so Ariana volunteered to drive him home. Neil thought about the fact that he hadn’t slept with Ariana ever since he and Michelle married. There was no denying that he wanted to, but it h

    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.
