“No time? He is always busy. Just tell him to collect my body if he doesn’t come home now. I am having a heart attack.”

Elliot had no words. Her voice was so forceful and louder than he was. She did not sound like she was ill.

“I will convey your message to Mr. Mann.”

“Now. Right away.”

“All right, Mrs. Mann.”

Elliot hung up and bent to put down the phone. “Mr. Mann, don’t you want to go home and take a look? Your grandma seems furious.”

Etan was not in a meeting. He had foreseen that Anne would go to his grandma, and his grandma would come for him.

He knew what that woman was thinking.

“Did you find the woman who looks similar to Jean in the video?” Etan asked, instead of answering Elliot’s question.

“We got the lead and will find it soon. The police have also expanded the search.”

“Mr. Mann, can I ask you a question?” Elliot was so curious, he couldn’t help but ask.

“You can’t.”

“What exactly is your relationship with Miss Mitchell?” Elliot asked anyway.

    “What do you mean, not hers?” Mrs. Mann was dumbfounded. “You have a woman outside now? Have you recovered?” She knew Etan’s problem, whereby he would not allow women to get close to him. Etan did not answer. Not that he had recovered. It was just that Jean was the special one. “It would be even better if you can recover. But you’d better cut off your relationship with the woman outside. It will hurt Anne dearly if she finds out.” “She knows.” “What?” Mrs. Mann was anxious. “I see. Is that why she wants to cancel the engagement? Don’t be foolish, Etan. Anne is a good girl, and she likes you. Don’t you ever let her down. Do you hear me?” “Grandma, between repaying kindness and having great-grandchildren, which is more important?” Etan asked all of a sudden. “Of course having great-grandchildren is more important. Why?” Mrs. Mann looked expectant. “I just want to tell you that you may not have great-grandchildren if I marry Anne.” “What do you mean, you rascal?” “Noth

    “Of course. It will be all yours.” Robert had no hesitation. He was very clear in this regard. “Alana will do the same. There are no parents who would not favor their children in this world.” Jean spread out her hands. “But I can understand her. Alana wanted her daughter to get a better footing in the household of her future husband when they got married. So, she took Anne back as leverage on the Mitchell family’s status. This is entirely normal. It benefits our family anyways. As long as they don’t try to usurp our family wealth.” Her words sounded casual, but Jean made sure that they would plant a seed of suspicion in Robert’s mind. She knew her dad was conceited and paranoid. Jean was too young and impulsive back then. It gave Alana an edge over her. But she would not give Alana another chance. … Back home and before resting for the day, Robert said, “The doctor said Jean is recovering well and will be discharged in a few days. You will go with me to take Jean home.” A

    A week after Jean regained her consciousness, the doctor told her that she could now go home. Just that she would need to come back to the hospital to change the dressing of her wound at a regular interval.  The day before she was discharged, she told Jenny that she would leave show business. Jenny was startled for a while and then said sadly, “Leave show business? Do you know that you are the most sought-after artist now? Movies and commercials are pouring in. You have a bright future and could win the best actress award in the future.” She paused and let out a smile. “It might not be a bad thing though. Since you are the eldest daughter of the Mitchells, you will have an even brighter future.” It was Jenny who discovered Jean and made her a star in five years. Now that Jean was leaving the industry, it was natural to feel sad. But Jenny also knew that the incident had hurt Jean too much. “It will be better for both of us. Join me.” Jean shook her head and whispered into Jen

    “I would have thought the two of you were here to harm me had you not told me that you sent her to take care of me.” Jean rolled her eyes. The blunter she was, the more innocent she looked. Robert hissed and shot a glare at Alana. He then turned to look at Jean, feeling sorry for her. “Let’s go home. No one can bully you with me here.” “I am so happy to have you, Dad.” Jean put her hand through his arm and they walked out together. Alana looked at the father and daughter from behind and clenched her hands into fists with anger. It was harder to deal with this woman than before. It did not matter as she still had a trump card. ... Jason followed Etan to a cocktail party in the evening. After brushing off a group of people who came and tried to butter him up, Etan turned his head and saw Jason sitting there, simpering like an idiot as he looked at the phone. “What is happening today?” Jason put the phone in his pocket and scratched his head. “She has been discharged from

    She snuggled up in him as if her body was boneless. “My chest doesn’t feel well. Why don’t you help me take a look at it?” The strong fragrance on the woman’s body and the softness of her body made him sick. “Go away.” Etan pushed the woman away in disgust. His mind was filled with Jean, who was crying while she wrapped her arms around his neck. He was eager to fill the void inside him when facing her. It was as if he was no longer himself. Except for her? …   No matter how reluctant she was, Anne had still returned to the Mitchell family in the evening. She felt a chill running up her spine as she stepped into the house and saw Jean smiling at her. Apart from Jean’s occasional verbal attack on Alana and Anne, the other time was basically peaceful. So, Robert was happy with it. Halfway through the meal, Alana stood up and said softly, “I am so happy today because Jean has come home. I have been feeling guilty for the past few years for not gaining Julia’s trust.” Je

    Anne just felt as if she had been slapped hard in the face. Jean fired another salvo for good measure. “If your mom really wanted you to move out, you would have moved as early as when my dad said I was coming back. Stop playing the victim here. As if the Mitchell family is bullying you by not giving you a place to stay.” “Dad, don’t tell me that the family members have been bullying Anne all this while. It would be shameful for the Mitchell family.” Jean had just shifted the contradiction. Robert’s face sank as he cared most about the reputation of the Mitchell family. Anne panicked and waved her hands with her reddened eyes. “No, no, Uncle Robert treats me well. It was me; I didn’t express myself clearly, and have angered you.” “Look at you—you are an embarrassment. Are you planning to marry into the Mann family like a wimp?” Jean did not bother to hide the despised look on her face. Robert glanced at Anne and agreed with Jean. Anne was too petty. In contrast, Jean looked

    “What are you going to do?” Fear filled Anne’s eyes. Jean pressed Anne’s head into the swarthy water the next second. The pungent swarthy water went into her nostrils and ears, suffocating Anne. Fear engulfed her as she kicked her legs and tried to fight back. Jean let go of her just before she drowned. Anne collapsed on the floor, coughing violently. Her face was unrecognizable as it was soaked in swarthy water. “How dare you do this to me! Aren’t you afraid of your dad?” She would kill Jean if she could, yet her fear for Jean was also deeply rooted inside her. She knew better than anyone else how brutal this woman could be during a fight. Jean turned on the faucet and washed her hands slowly. “Then tell my dad. He will only pay you two some money at most. Do you think he will kick me out of the house? This is my home. Don’t you get it?” “This is just the beginning, Anne.” She stepped on Anne. “Tell your mom that if she wants to dance, let’s dance.” After she left,

    She had a triumphant but innocent smile on her face as if a little girl had succeeded in a prank. “You...” Robert had a headache.   “Humph, since they have upset me, why can’t I vent my anger? Just give her some money and let her buy new ones.” “We are family now. So you have got to let her save face. She will marry into the Mann family, anyway.” “Dad, you know me. Had I not let her save face, we wouldn’t have had dinner together. I just can’t stand Anne’s huffy behavior. It is as if the Mitchell family is mistreating her. If she carries this behavior and marries into the Mann family, what would people think of us?” Robert suddenly felt that Jean had a point. Jean stole a glance at Robert before saying, “I am waiting for Alana to complain about me to you. If she doesn’t do that, I will only despise her for not standing up for her daughter.” Robert felt that it was a good thing when he saw her open and poise attitude with nothing to hide. “You are still the same as you wer

    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

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.

    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
