Meanwhile, Laurence was distracted at work as he listened to his employee’s report. He spun the pen between his fingers a few times before he pressed the tip to the paper and signed it. The employee from finance didn’t realize that Laurence hadn’t been listening until he had finished talking. They eyed each other, unsure how to continue.A few moments later, the employer gathered the courage to speak. “Mr. Scott, an auditing firm has been hired to re-audit the finances again. Mr. Langley still won’t admit that he was the one who hired that man as the head of finance. He claims that he has nothing to do with it.”Laurence was quiet for a moment before he gave a hum of affirmation. He said, “If the auditing firm finds anything wrong, report it to the police.”The employee wasn’t surprised. Laurence may seem even-tempered, but he was heavy-handed when doling out punishment. He usually didn’t show any mercy.The head of finance was James' nephew. Typically, anyone else would have spare
Love in the dark Chapter 404 No Time to Hurt Her
Laurence drove Zoey back to the main family residence for dinner. The drive was a little long as the house was in a different residential area, and the roads were packed due to rush hour. While they waited for the traffic light to turn green, Zoey couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Laurence. His slender fingers were beautiful and attention-grabbing, splayed out across the steering wheel. Sunlight streamed in through the window, illuminating his perfect features. The buttons of his shirt were undone, and his tie was loose. He was the complete opposite of his usual put-together self. It gave him a casual air.As Zoey withdrew her gaze, she heard him speak. “Next time, don’t get your check-ups at a hospital so far away from home.”Zoey understood what he really meant—he wanted her to go to one of the Scotts’ hospitals. Perhaps because he felt uneasy? Or perhaps he thought she had faked her results? Zoey wouldn’t do that. His lack of trust in her was a whole different matter.
Love in the dark Chapter 405 Invisible Wounds
Robert’s assistant wasn’t a naïve woman. Whenever Jasmine was there, she would keep a low profile and pretend to be a fragile little flower. Without anyone knowing, she ended up pregnant. She successfully hid it for the first three months of her pregnancy. Once the baby was safe from the risk of early miscarriage, she immediately flew abroad to check the baby’s gender. Upon finding out it was a boy, she immediately called Robert to inform him.Old Mrs. Jenner was beside herself with joy when she found out the assistant had given birth to a baby boy. All of the family’s assets would go to him. No one would be able to contest it. Meanwhile, Jasmine blew her top, but she still pretended to be a good, dutiful wife in front of Robert. Robert initially felt uneasy. After all, he had been married to his wife for so many years that an extramarital affair would indeed rock their marriage. Still, he wanted that son and had to deal with the assistant. He’d never expected Jasmine to be so underst
Love in the dark Chapter 406 New Realizations
The new hearing aid was so compact that Zoey felt nothing when she had it on. She had never used such a good hearing aid. It had no annoying wires, and it didn’t feel irritatingly foreign in her ear. She tried to thank Laurence for his kindness, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn’t say it. They looked at each other in silence.Fortunately for Zoey, a servant knocked on the door at that moment to inform them that dinner was ready.Laurence unravelled his tie. He didn’t like being dressed so sharply all the time. He extended a hand to her. “Let’s go downstairs.”Zoey followed him, their fingers intertwined as they headed down. They looked very much like a loving married couple.Mrs. Scott kept placing more food onto Zoey’s plate. “Eat more,” she said.On the table was crab, Zoey’s favorite. Laurence put on a pair of disposable gloves before he began deshelling the crab. He did so artfully, making sure there was not a single bit of shell left on the flesh. After he was done, h
Love in the dark Chapter 407 Got Hit
The karaoke joint was dark. This suited Zoey as no one could see her face, and she didn’t need to look at the others. Zoey sat on the sofa and dimmed her phone screen to the very lowest setting. Absent-mindedly, she scrolled through her news feed. She didn’t know what she could do here. She didn’t want to drink, and she wasn’t the greatest at poker. She also had no interest in participating in their games.Someone then brought the spotlight back to Zoey. “Hey, you were late. No way you’re getting off lightly.”Zoey silently clenched her fists. She felt uncomfortable being teased so casually when they weren’t close friends. Instinctively, her gaze darted over to Laurence. His face was impassive, seemingly unaffected by her predicament.Zoey gave it some thought. In the end, she decided to apologize. It seemed there wasn’t anything else she could say. She couldn’t even be bothered to explain herself. She pressed her lips together. “Sorry,” she said.Adrian Hayes stiffened upon hear
Love in the dark Chapter 408 No Way to Make Amends
Zoey hadn’t thought it through before she blurted it out. Laurence’s expression changed. She wondered if she had said something wrong and unwittingly hurt him again. She didn’t want to keep bringing up awful memory with him. She had no idea what came over her—perhaps the memory had…affected her that deeply. Even though she kept telling herself to forget it, to forget every hurtful thing he had done, she still subconsciously spilled her thoughts.Zoey rubbed her temples, trying to hold back her tiredness. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to use you as an example.”There was a subtle shift in Laurence’s expression. It was difficult for him to swallow his feelings. When she apologized, a fire roared in his chest. If it hadn’t been for the sincerity in her eyes, her words would have come off as condescending, mocking him for his moment of violence.Laurence’s face was impassive as he reined in his emotions. His gaze was chilly, and his aura as frosty as ever when he uttered, “It’s okay.”Since sh
Love in the dark Chapter 409 Not Fun
Sarah’s unease grew. She attempted to pry more information from Tristan. He was sharp enough to sense her intentions and lazily eyed her. “Why don’t you ask him yourself? He always indulges you,” he urged with an ambiguous smile. Even though they were close friends, it wasn’t a good idea to intrude too deeply into family affairs. Tristan was never particularly curious about what was happening between Shawn and Marilyn. If Shawn intended to keep the reason under wraps, he naturally wouldn’t tell anyone. No one would know then.Sarah picked up her glass and sipped her juice to mask her nervousness. She pressed her lips together before speaking in her usual friendly tone, “I’m not a busybody. I’m just worried that he’s been down lately. You didn’t invite him out tonight.”Tristan was all smiles as he gazed at Sarah. When he wanted to, he did seem like a party boy. He countered, “But I didn’t invite you either.”Sarah’s heart sank, and her displeasure showed on her face. However, sh
