Chapter 1686

Author: Gu Lingfei
Mrs. Brown was mad that Jessica cursed her grandchildren terribly just now.

Upon seeing Jessica moan that her stomach ached, Mrs. Brown promptly went forward to hold Jessica and said nervously, “Quickly take a seat. Or you can return to your room and lie down.”

“Mom, she’s lying. This is not her first time faking a tummy ache.”

Chelsea did not believe that Jessica was having an ache in her abdomen.

“Chelsea.”

Mrs. Brown called her daughter’s name out before she assisted Jessica to the room and laid her on the bed. She noticed that Jessica’s face became swollen as a result of Chelsea’s slap. Worried that Hank would come into conflict with Chelsea when he saw this upon his return, Mrs. Brown said, “Jessica, I’m going to get ice and put it on your face.”

Jessica touched her face without saying a word.

Mrs. Brown went out to get her ice.

Lying on the bed, Jessica was thinking about the life she was living. She felt so aggrieved that tears rolled down her face.

    “I bought the best environmentally friendly materials. The handymen were also great. Their work was of good quality. Many people are waiting to hire them for their renovations.“However, I had to arrange accommodations in the city for them because they came from the countryside. They wouldn’t have been able to do anything if they had to go back and forth. It’s a waste of petrol too.“During the renovation, I rented a nearby house for the handymen and terminated it once the work was done. It was an older building and didn’t cost a lot per month.”Alex said, “I also plan to buy the materials and hire workers myself. If your handymen did a great job, can you recommend them to me, Dr. Jones?“I’ll arrange accommodations. The salary is also negotiable.”York Corporation used to be involved in the real estate industry. They had plenty of construction and renovation teams. Alex also did not have to buy everything himself. He could have simply entrusted the task to his butler. However,

    Of course, if York Corporation were to go bankrupt, it would shake up the business world in Wiltspoon and cause many small and medium enterprises to close down.“We should also change up our strategies continuously to keep up with current trends. Otherwise, we’ll be eliminated easily.“Being part of the management is stressful. The company might be fine during our time, but what about the next generation?“Nana said nothing lasts forever. If York Corporation were to have a crisis, we would have to do our best to salvage it while mentally preparing ourselves for failure and facing everything calmly.”Sheila said, “I’ve heard many stories about your grandmother. Whether in higher society or among ordinary people, everyone only has praises for her.“I believe your grandmother is a great woman who brought immense luck to your family.”Alex laughed. “My nana is great. We grew up with our grandparents because our parents were busy with work when we were young. They took up the responsi

    Alex truly thought the sausages were delicious. Besides, it was the woman he liked who bought him the meal. He could even eat two more servings. “If my chief didn’t mention it, I wouldn’t believe that you came from a wealthy family. You’re too down-to-earth, humble, and approachable.”Alex smiled. “That’s because you don’t understand us. Although our family has a lot of money, my brothers and I grew up with our grandparents. Most people of their generation are hardworking and able to endure hardships.“Our grandparents raised us strictly. My brothers and I had our fair share of struggles. Nana always says that only those who have endured the most difficult hardships can become the best of the best.“We couldn’t be picky about food either. We didn’t dare because Nana would hit us with her cane.“There’s also independence. Nana wanted us to be responsible for ourselves. We also had to pick up many skills. You probably have heard that my brothers and I are actually pretty good a

    Alex smiled. “Since you’re the one treating, I believe you know which place is good and clean.”Sheila returned the smile. At that moment, the lady boss served them two glasses of soy milk. “Do you usually drink soy milk, Mr. York?” Sheila asked softly. The York family was wealthy. Since Alex was born with a silver spoon and lived a lavish life, he probably did not have soy milk before.“I do. I drink it often, but I make it myself.”Alex had never bought soy milk from stores. He did not even have any from his family’s hotel. “I also make soy milk from scratch when I have time. Nowadays, I simply buy it outside. Sometimes, my family’s chef prepares fresh soy milk for us.“You should try the soy milk from this diner. I think it’s home-made.”Alex tasted the soy milk. He said, “Mm, it’s home-made indeed.”The flavor was rich. Sheila smiled. “I’ve watched the lady boss strain the soy milk many times. This diner has the most customers because the bosses are honest people.

    Sheila led Alex into the elevator as soon as the doors opened. Vincent watched as the two of them entered the elevator. Then, he looked toward the breakfast he bought and sighed. He had lost track of the number of times he had been rejected. He and Sheila used to be coursemates. Even if they were not a couple, they were still acquaintances. It was normal for him to treat a coursemate to a meal.However, Sheila had rejected him every time. It did not matter if he offered to take her to a restaurant or ordered takeout for her. She would refuse all the same. Vincent knew that she had no feelings for him. Nevertheless, he thought she would be touched by his persistent effort one day and accept him. Unfortunately, he realized he no longer stood a chance after seeing Alex just now. He had noticed the way Alex looked at Sheila. It was the same as his own. A young master of the Yorks liked Sheila and was pursuing her. How could he possibly beat a wealthy young master?Vin

    “I’m not asking you to get involved. I just wanted to tell you about it.”Zachary turned to kiss his wife. “Since you’re still so energetic, let’s go for another round.”Serenity was speechless.They had another round of sex.After that, Serenity did not talk to Zachary and simply fell asleep. The night passed. In the morning, Alex rushed to the hospital with the banner he had someone make overnight. He wanted to pass the banner to Sheila before she got off work. Sheila was delighted. One of the happiest moments for a doctor was receiving a banner of gratitude from their patients. Alex and Sheila even took a picture together. He could not ask for more. That way, he could have a picture of Sheila openly. “Since your shift has ended, let me treat you to breakfast, Dr. Jones.”Alex invited Sheila to breakfast. She smiled. “Thank you for the banner, Mr. York. How can I let you treat me to breakfast? I should be the one buying you a meal.“However, I usually have a
