Chapter 231Jean didn't know how long she waited for the answer. Dylan's subordinates gave her some water and some things to eat.After she ate, her strength finally recovered.As time passed, Jean waited anxiously.When Dylan finally came in, she immediately asked, "What do you think of my proposals?"Dylan looked at Jean carefully, she was beautiful, and she looked more attractive under the moonlight. No wonder Mr. Mann was willing to do anything for her.The expression on his face made Jean a little uncomfortable."Miss Mitchell, I'm sorry, I can't cooperate with you. Don't blame me! I was also cheated by others. I can't ignore the lives of so many brothers. If you want to hate someone, it must be Henry."After he finished speaking, he raised his hand, and someone immediately stepped forward and sealed Jean's mouth with tape, tied her hands and feet, and put her into a box.They did it so fast that Jean had no time to struggle, and then she was lifted.She was panicked, an
Chapter 232Tyson took off his glasses, "I don't think so." "Etan still thought that it was the man who kidnapped Jean did it. He doesn't suspect us yet." "Mr. Tyson, who do you think kidnapped Jean?" Tyson chuckled, "Isn't that clear enough?" Carson shook his head. Although they got a lot of clues now, he still couldn't figure it out. "Mrs. Mann!" Carson was surprised. Could it be it Mrs. Mann? "She played her last trump card! I should really thank Jean for giving me such a nice gift." Tyson put down his glasses and took a look at the time. It was 4:00 in the morning. "I haven't been back to the old mansion for a long time. I'll go back to see her in two days."...At dawn, Elliot came to Etan with his head down."Mr. Mann, I'm sorry. I followed the clue but found they were all dead!" Dozens of lives were lost overnight.The clue of Jean was completely erased. Etan hadn't slept all night. He had already washed and changed into a handmade suit that fitted him w
Chapter 233In the Mitchell villa, Alana had been quite happy these days.Robert once again tried to call Jean, but still got no answer."What's wrong with her? Why don't she answer my phone call?"Alana besides him said considerately, "She has grown up now and got her own life. As parents, we'd better not get involved in. What's more, Jean is getting better and better now. The last time when we attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony of Paragon Mall, she was the pride of our whole family. Compliments are everywhere online."The words she said made Robert feel much better, "That's true. Jean have done a great job in this Paragon Mall project. I could not make so much profits if I did the negotiation."When he went out for business dinner, lots of people got envious of him for he had such a smart and beautiful daughter. We could assumed that Jean totally got famous in upper class of Cornview."That's right. Jean have finally grown up, and she will be independent very soon. So you don't nee
Chapter 234Etan's men sailed out to sea one after another.Elliot stood in the harbor. The cold wind in the harbor was so keen that it made his face ache.He looked at the wide sea and was in a particularly mixed mood. North Harbor was year-round ice-free. No matter how cold the winter was, ships could still enter and leave the harbor normally and the sea wouldn't be frozen. This meant that if Jean was shipped out of the harbor, she could be anywhere after such a long time.There was little chance of finding her. He knew all this. How could Etan not know? So he was afraid to say this to Etan. Jean had been missing for five days, and Etan was still calm. He didn't seem to be in a hurry. But now he was determined to find Jean at any cost.Whether Jean was dead or alive now, he must find her.At the beginning, Elliot was only worried that Etan might lose his temper. But now he was more worried about something else. Tyson was secretly monitoring the situation of Etan. "M
Chapter 235Mrs. Mann now had few right-hand assistants.Moreover, after knowing that the man she sent out had his arm broken by Etan, Mrs. Mann thought that Jean was not together with Etan. Therefore, she did not care about Jean any more.Zack wore a significant smile. "It seems that you don't know that Etan is looking for someone!"Mrs. Mann pulled a long face and didn't say anything."I guess you don't know who Etan is looking for, right?”"You are so concerned about Etan. What do you want to do? Do you think that you have a chance to take over the Mann Group?"Zack chuckled, "After all, he is my cousin. Isn’t it normal for me to care about him? Grandma, don't you want to know who Etan is looking for?""As the head of the Mann family, he has reason to do everything, so I don't need to question his decisions. Neither do you!"Mrs. Mann glanced at Kevin and said, “Send him out!"Kevin stepped forward. “Mr. Zack, please."Zack, however, kept sitting on the sofa. “Really? Why
Chapter 236Even Mrs. Mann was surprised for a second and thought that Tyson would say more to deliberately irritate her. "Bye, Grandma!" Tyson put on his coat and left. Walking out of the mansion, he looked sideways and noticed that there were a few drops of water stains on his shoulders. A cold light flashed through his eyes. He stretched out his arm, and Elliot immediately came forward to take off his coat and threw it away. After getting on the car, Elliot could not help asking, "Mr. Tyson, how do you know what the Mrs. Mann did to Etan's mother?" "I don't know!" Tyson was in a good mood. He said those things on purpose. He never thought he'd get something out of Mrs. Mann. Mrs. Mann's reaction was so emotional that it confirmed his suspicion!What he said about Jean was just to disturb Mrs. Mann's mind.The last thing he said was the purpose of his coming today.Otherwise, when Mrs. Mann was sensible and in control of her emotions, he might not be able to ask her
Chapter 237"Keep an eye on Tyson. Report his every move to me!" ... Jean didn't know where she was. When she opened her eyes again, there were four beautiful girls around her. They took care of her with great care. She ate and used the most luxurious.The pain on the wrist was gone, but there was an new tattoo. The tattoo was like a rose, with long thorns on the twining vine, a bird had been stabbed through its body and the branches were red with blood.The tattoo just covered the scar on her wrist!She had seen tattoos before. But she had never seen such a gorgeous, almost real tattoo.When she raised her hand, she even felt that the blood could drip. The rose petals seemed to be alive. With one more look, she almost thought the petals were trembling.A tattoo like this suddenly appeared on her slender wrist, which looked more and more strange against her snow-white skin, with an indescribable glamour!The girls who took care of Jean told her that the tattoo would neve
Chapter 238He waved his fan at Mr. White, "It's tonight!""I want to tease her. If I'm satisfied, she should stay here. If not, just sell her in a few days!""Okay!"No matter what he said, Mr. White was not surprised....Dinner was delivered to Jean's room. There were French foie gras and black truffle creamy gumbo, both of which were top ingredients!But now no matter how delicious the food was, she had no appetite.After dinner, the girls who took care of her took the dishes away!"Ms. Mitchell, you can have a rest. We'll give you a bath later!""Mmm!"Other than the luxurious decorations, there were no useful clues in the room. She didn't even know the time.She could only distinguish between the day and night from the three meals.Jean walked in the room slowly. She wanted to escape from here, but she couldn't find any chance now!The four girls came into her room together every time.Even if she wanted to break out of here, she couldn't deal with the four girls.
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
