“Show me that you are worthy for me to give up my hatred toward you.” Jean gave her a smile. After Jean left, the lady’s face turned red, and she stammered, “She... she is stunning!” “But you just badmouthed her earlier.” “And, she is not only stunning but also gentle. Did you see how she wiped my hands? When she smiled at me, I felt my heart melting away.” The girl put her hands to her face. “Miss Mitchell surely needs a secretary since she had just come to the company. I have to work hard and work for her.” … Paragon Mall was an up-scaled shopping mall that was newly developed by Mann Corporation in New Heights District shopping street. Mitchell Corporation engaged in import and export, as well as running international freight services. Their plan was to bring in several brands into Paragon Mall. This was only a small project for Mann Corporation, but it was the first time that Mitchell Corporation expanded its business to this field. So, it was very important to them
“I, I, I... I think Miss Mitchell hasn’t left the building yet. Maybe I can invite her again.” “What are you waiting for?” Elliot turned and ran. Jean stepped out of the elevator and counted the time. People like Etan had an inborn superior attitude. He hated those who disobeyed him. The more she went against him, the more upset he was, and the more he wanted to see her. Jean was about two steps away from the Mann Tower exit when Elliot caught up to her and her team. “I am sorry, Miss Mitchell. You can’t leave yet. Could you please come with me?” Elliot said. “You sound like if I don’t follow you, I will not get to leave this place alive.” Jean mocked. “I am sorry.” Elliot flushed. “You can all go first.” Jean said to those behind her. The others looked at each other, wondering what was going on. … Upon arriving outside Etan’s office, Elliot took a step back and said in a low voice, “Please.” “You are not entering?” “No. Just you, Miss Mitchell.” Jean knocke
His mind was filled with her whenever he closed his eyes. Yes, she did it all, and that was exactly the problem—she did it all. Why did she stop seducing him? Why did she do exactly what he said? Did she not like to defy him? Why was she so obedient this time? But, he could not say these thoughts out loud. He would never let Jean know what was on his mind. “One hundred dollars... if you dare to insult me like that, you should know what would happen.” On the pretext of anger, he dragged Jean into his arms and pressed her on the desk. The next second, he was slapped in the face. “Let go of me!” Jean’s hand was trembling, and her eyes were reddening. Etan was slapped in the face for the first time in his life. His face darkened as he sneered, “It is not like I haven’t seen your body before. Stop pretending in front of me!” He grabbed Jean’s shirt and tore it apart, buttons scattered all over the floor. “Go away, Etan!” He lowered his head and bit her neck, as if he was ven
Jean clutched at her shirt tightly. Her eyes were red and swollen, and tears flowed down her cheeks. Her petite body was trembling. She was so delicate and fragile. This was the other side of her that she rarely showed Etan. But once he saw it, he could not help but feel pity for her. Etan felt a tingling pain inside him. But, he ignored that feeling. “I know exactly what kind of woman you are. Stop pretending in front of me.” She was a liar in his eyes. So, he instinctively did not believe her. “When we were together, you may do anything to me. But now that we aren’t, you may not even touch me.” Jean wiped away her tears and forced a smile. “No one has ever dared to tell me that there is something I can’t touch.” Etan sneered. “You may do whatever you want in Cornview and no one dares to defy you. I can’t say no if you want me. But I have a question for you: why do you like to contradict yourself?” “Do you think I want to touch you?” Etan opened the drawer and took out the
Jean was reluctant, but she gritted her teeth as if she had made up her mind. “Okay. I will teach you this one time to let you know what real kissing is.” She hugged Etan’s neck and kissed his lips on tiptoes. This time, she tried her best to apply all the kissing skills she knew on Etan. He was almost completely immersed in her kisses. His hand holding her waist tightened. Jean was worried that he might lose control, so she suddenly pushed Etan away and ran out of his office. The side of her she used to display in front of Etan was too negative. It was time for him to see her stubborn, unyielding side. When dealing with men, you need to let them know that you have many faces, and each one is different. Only then will they be more interested in you. Being just a seductive woman will never be enough. … Even though Jean had changed into Etan’s shirt, it made no difference. She was still disheveled, her hair was messy, and there were tears on her face. When she ran out of the pr
Etan looked at the button with a ruthless look in his eyes as he fiddled with it. He wanted to break off with her. But, it was her who refused to let him go, constantly seducing him. … Standing on a busy street, Jean sneered, as she was certain that Etan had taken a liking to her. Just that she had to change her seduction tactic. The more submissive she was, the more likely he would look at her with disdain. She needed to play with his antagonistic psychology. She had used an aggressive tactic previously. Now, she needed to play hard to get. Jean rubbed her lips hard. She had said it a long time ago; she would not allow them to have a clean break. A Maybach suddenly pulled up beside her. The window rolled down and Tyson’s charming, feminine face revealed itself. “Where are you going? I will give you a ride. It is hard to get a taxi around here.” “No, thanks.” Jean did not like Tyson at all. Probably because like repels like. She felt that they were the same kind of people, the
Jean knew that this was a conflict between the wealthy. But, she did not care about these things. “Aren’t you afraid that he would come and get you for helping me?”Tyson said innocently, “I’m just providing you a platform. The possibility of success is all on you. Besides, what could he possibly do? Am I not allowed to be friends with Ms. Mitchell?”Jean nodded in response. She understood now. Tyson was giving her a stage to let her perform. If everything went well, his wishes would be fulfilled.If it failed, he would not suffer any losses at all!‘There really is nothing good about the Manns!’ …Robert did not go home that night as he was busy socializing. Alana hid in the showers to make a phone call. The person on the other end said something, and her expressions immediately turned ferocious.“What? That b*tch became the Vice President of Mitchell Corporation today? Robert did not mention anything about that to me. I think he is hiding it from me intentionally.
Etan watched as she walked toward him with a radiant smile on her face. It was a smile that he had never seen before.At that moment, his heart raced a little. Etan’s lips parted as he was about to speak, but… Jean continued walking and brushed against him. She stopped in front of Tyson and handed him a present. “Happy birthday!”Tyson’s face lit up with glee. “Thank you. But, you coming here is already the best present I could ask for! I actually thought you wouldn’t show up!”“Aren’t we friends? How could I miss this!”“Can I open it now?”Jean smiled sweetly. “Of course you can, it’s your present!”Tyson unwrapped the gift wrappings and opened the box. Inside the box was a Burberry men’s necktie! He had a surprised look on his face. “You certainly have good taste. I love the tie, thanks.”“As long as you like it.”‘As long as it was cheap.’ Initially, Jean wanted to attend the party empty-handed, but Jenny advised her not to. So, she went to the mall and simply bought a
Chapter 395"You were promoted several days ago, right? In the past, it seemed that you are just an assistant of the legal department, and your monthly salary was only about 3,000 dollars. According to your previous income and your family situation, you can't afford to the house of Royal Penthouse."This information was provided by Ben. He and Jean both felt that this was a rare opportunity. They had to investigate the accounts as soon as possible.While Jean was speaking, she stared at Daniel. He was calm and just frowned. His expression did not change. It seemed that he was not guilty.But...Jean still found his flaw. His right hand was unconsciously clenching his pants, and he panicked. Daniel looked righteous and angrily rebuked, "This is all your arbitrary speculation. I don't need to report the situation of my family to anyone. If you really doubt me, just call the police. There is no need to be entangled with me."Jean nodded. "Yes, you're right. Since there's no need to
Chapter 394She could have time to check the company's accounts, fire Brennan's people, and minimize his influence.This was a good opportunity for her.Jean hurriedly got up, washed up, and went downstairs."Mrs. Mann, good morning. I'll go bring you breakfast." Ellen said while heading for the kitchen."No. I have something urgent today. I have to hurry to the office.""You should have breakfast. You're pregnant!"Jean stopped, and her gaze was gloomy.'Yes, I'm pregnant now. I should pay attention. Otherwise, I would easily be suspected.'Ellen brought up the breakfast. In less than ten minutes, she finished her breakfast.On the way to the Mitchell Corporation, Jean called Jenny."Jenny, I can't go to Dreamers Entertainment recently. Please keep an eye out for me. Send me two capable accountants.""There are some in Dreamers Entertainment. There is no need to look for them elsewhere.""Ask them to come to the Mitchell Corporation now!""Okay. I'll call them."Jean co
Chapter 393Jean was confused as she listened, "Who are you talking about? Who has his arm broken?""Oops, I am just too excited to make it clear. It's Brennna. I was told about this the moment I entered the company. He went whoring in a hotel. But that prostitute has a boyfriend who is a member of a gang. Brennna and that prostitute were caught sleeping on the bed. Her boyfriend broke Brennna’s arm and chopped off two of Brennna’s fingers on the spot. Now Brennna is in the hospital with police there." Summer gave a quite vivid description of the matter with happiness written all over her face.Rubbing her forehead, Jean thought it was indeed something unexpected."Do you think this is good news?" Jean nodded, smiling, "Yes, it's good news. I didn't expect that he did this."Summer looked very delighted, "He did it. Now, this matter has been spread through the whole company? Brennna, a widely recognized good man, turns out to be a jerk. It is too bad that I used to think he i
Chapter 392The day he disappeared a week ago, Jean had just ruined Anne's engagement.Etan frowned and his cold face made Elliot a little scared."Keep investigating! Robert must be found! I want to know if he is dead or alive."He not only wanted to find Robert but also wanted to find Robert before Morgan did.If he let Morgan find Robert first, maybe Jean would worship him in her heart. She might even think that Morgan was a good man!Etan would never give Morgan this chance.What's more, he would not give Jean any chance to be with another man.Elliot said cautiously, "Besides, there is one thing I don't know whether I should say."Etan glanced at him and said, "Go ahead. Don't dilly-dally."Elliot immediately said, "I also found out that Mr. Mitchell handed over the company to his long-time friend to manage it for him a month ago. However, that person held a shareholders' meeting today and almost kicked Mrs. Mann out of the company."Etan's eyebrows tightened. "What?"
Chapter 391"Jean, I still hold the view that you and Etan are husband and wife. After all, you've married Mr.Mann. There is nothing that cannot be solved between husband and wife. Don't be like enemies."Jean smiled...There were some things that couldn't be resolved between husband and wife, just like her and Etan. In the end...even if they were not enemies, they couldn't have a happy ending.Ellen tried to persuade her, "You should at least think about the child in your womb!"Jean lowered her head and looked at her belly. She pursed her lips and did not say anything. ..."Make an investigate about how many times Jean had met Morgan recently. Where and how long did they meet each other? And when did she call the police?" That was the first order Etan made when he arrived at the company.Elliot immediately replied, "Yes, Sir." He didn't even dare to ask anything.Just as he was about to leave, Etan suddenly called out to him, "Wait..."Elliot stopped immediately, "Sir,
Chapter 390Etan straightened up his clothes unhurriedly and said coldly, "The man you pick this time is actually good. Morgan is indeed worth trusting. Unfortunately he meet you."Jean became alert when she heard his words.She sat up with her arms on the bed and said, "I'll say it again. There's nothing going on between Morgan and me. Even if I want to be with a man, I won't be with anyone from the Moss family. I went to him just to ask about my father's case."Etan immediately got to the point, "You called the police?""Or what?""You don't believe me, and then why do you come to me?" Etan's face, which had easily eased a little, darkened again.In Cornview, the Mann family was definitely the most powerful.Jean knew this, but she called the police anyway.What did it mean? It meant she didn't trust him."It's one thing for me to believe you, and it's another for me to come to you or not. You're my father's son-in-law. Your father-in-law's missing. Shouldn't you deal with
Chapter 389Etan's face suddenly changed color. But before he could utter sarcasm, Jean said, "I know you despised what I said. You think I'm humiliating you. You would say I'm not worthy of your caring! I don’t deserve you treating me as an equal! A glance at me would be a stain in your eyes. You would never love me!" Etan's grip on Jean's shoulders grew more fierce.Jean's face went pale with the pain then. She took a breath and scoffed, "But, don't you think you're acting so weird today? I just had a meal with Morgan, and you got so annoyed. Don't you think you're overreacting?""Not to mention that Morgan and I have nothing between us, even if we did, do you need to be mad like this?"Etan felt like his chest was filled with explosives, and each word Jean said was igniting him.Damn woman! How the hell did she want to be screwed? Jean snorted, "Sooner or later, we'll get a divorce. I know you won't let me be your wife forever. I'm well aware of my position!""So… it's onl
Chapter 388Jean was trembling with pain. Etan and Jean glared at each other and their eyes seemed fighting. One was unconvinced, the other was very mad.Seeing Jean's painful look, Morgan immediately said, "Etan, you almost break her wrist."These words, however, instantly ignited Etan’s fury."Morgan, she is my wife. This is none of your business. Get the hell out of here. Don't think I dare not to mess with you." Jean roared, "Enough. Could you stop doing that? Just come at me. Don't take out your anger on unrelated person."Etan laughed.‘She simply is defending him like this and telling me to come at her?’Etan only felt that his heart was set on fire, and he nodded, "Well, come at you." Morgan said, "Etan, you need to calm down!" "This is between me and my wife and has nothing to do with you."Etan dragged Jean away in strides.Morgan worried that Etan would hurt Jean, but the two were indeed a couple, so their affairs were out of his hands.‘But, what i
Chapter 387Jean didn't think that Etan flew into a rage because of jealousy.He just felt that as his wife, she secretly ate with another man without his knowledge. He felt that his authority had been challenged and that he was cuckolded.After all, Etan didn’t believe her at all. He doubted her...Morgan didn't expect Jean to defend him right away and she even didn't defend herself.He was a policeman and he had always stood up to protect others. But it was the first time that someone had stood in front of him to protect him.Morgan's original impression of Jean was very complicated. He felt that this woman was scheming, cunning, but somewhat pitiful. But at this time, he felt that perhaps he had had a bias against Jean before.He had no habit of being protected, especially being protected by a woman.Morgan stood forward. "Etan, Ms. Mitchell and I have serious things to talk about today. You think too much."Etan sneered. "Serious things? Morgan, I know you very well. When
