Just as Terry was about to start the car again, the phone beside him rang.He casually glanced at the screen of his phone and saw the caller ID. Terry then reached out and answered the call, saying, "It's me, Jerry.""Good morning, Mr. Davison.""Um."Terry responded, "Go ahead, what's the matter?"Jerry wasted no time either. "Mr. Davison, I found out what you asked me to investigate last night. Your guess was right, it was indeed Bennett who did it."Terry was not at all surprised by this result. He made a slight click with his tongue and said, "I knew it, has he been getting close to Chad recently?"Since Jerry had someone investigate that matter, naturally he also checked what Bennett has been up to recently, after all, you never know what Bennett might want to do to Terry."The Sheppard Group has a big project next year, and the Davison Group wants a piece of the action. Bennett has been trying to please Chad lately, hoping to get a share in the development of this project."Terr
Heidy had already reached this point in her speech, and the provocation was already strong. If it were another woman, things would have intentionally become a bit chaotic at this point.Who is Jessica?She has always led Hannah and them to wander around since childhood, and she dared to challenge those street hooligans in junior high school. She has seen scenes of such provocation many times.Although Heidy's words were hurtful, they were just scratching the surface for Jessica and were completely useless.Jessica opened the lid of the soup bowl and carefully picked up the soup spoon to scoop a spoonful of soup. She tasted it and then looked up at Heidy, saying, "Many people think they are exceptions, and it seems that Ms. Coffey is no exception either."Two "exceptions," but clearly with different meanings.Jessica responded to Heidy's provocation with a casual and witty remark.Heidy looked at Jessica, and her smile deepened a bit.
Heidy's proud expression instantly crumbled when she heard Jessica's words. She looked at Jessica and asked, "Ms. Hall, what does this mean?"Jessica also took out her own phone and took a photo after she finished looking at the pictures yesterday.I didn't expect to use this "thing" so quickly.Jessica pulled up the photos she took yesterday and, imitating Heidy's expression just now, placed her phone in front of her. "Ms. Coffey, take a look at this photo. Does it look familiar?"Jessica spoke and chuckled lightly, "It's a coincidence, yesterday afternoon, someone sent me a local express delivery. There was nothing much inside, just a few photos from your phone, Ms. Coffey.""Last night, I went back and showed the photos to Terry. Does Ms. Coffey want to know how Terry evaluated these photos?"Heidy didn't expect that Jessica had already seen these photos before. She suddenly felt like a clown.However, things have come to this poin
Heidy waited in the restaurant for over half an hour, but Lia didn't come. She was already angry, and as she couldn't wait for Lia to come, her face became uglier with each passing second.He took out his phone and called Lia again. As soon as the call was connected, Heidy immediately started cursing. "Were you robbed on the way? I asked you to deliver a piece of clothing, it's been half an hour and you still haven't delivered it. Do you still want to get that project for your family?"This was the first time Heidy had spoken so directly about that project. Lia, who had also been pampered by the Rowse family, had been by Heidy's side these days, attending to her every need. Even though Heidy had not been kind to her, now she had an attitude of not asking for help. This angered her too. "My car broke down, Ms. Coffey, you better find someone else to bring you clothes."After speaking, Lia hung up the phone directly. Seeing a bag of clothes on the passenger seat,
Jessica didn't expect Terry to suddenly lower his head and kiss her personally. She nervously looked around and was glad that she had come downstairs ten minutes early.After work, there were people everywhere, and he just lowered his head and kissed Jessica. She couldn't bear the embarrassment.The evening wind was cold and strong. Terry snuggled up to herself and quickly walked to the side of the car.He opened the car door and gestured for her to go in first. Jessica got into the car and as soon as she got in, there was a bouquet of flowers placed in front of the car.It was not real flowers, but a bouquet of popular lipstick shades gathered together.Terry got into the driver's seat and handed her the bouquet of "flowers". "Congratulations, baby."Jessica took the bouquet and smiled, "Shouldn't I be congratulating you?""I found a job, so the pressure of supporting the family is not as great anymore, baby."Jessica looked e
The design was specially created by someone hired by Jessica, and the design fee alone amounted to a staggering 150,000. The initials of both her and Terry's names were engraved on the back of the watch dial.The men's watch is engraved with the abbreviation "SC" for Jessica, while the women's watch is engraved with the abbreviation "FY" for Terry.Of course, Jessica was naturally too embarrassed to tell Terry about these little annoying details.However, the shop assistant was really "thoughtful", watching the two of them try on the watches with a smile and saying, "Mr. Davison, behind the dials of yours and Ms. Hall's watches, according to Ms. Hall's request, the initials of Ms. Hall and your name have been engraved respectively.""This watch was specially designed by our designer at the invitation of Ms. Hall, and there is only one of its kind in the world. Ms. Hall really likes Mr. Davison and hopes that Ms. Hall and Mr. Davison will reconcile soon."
Jessica couldn't respond to this, but Terry didn't seem to have any intention of further troubling her.He gave her a meaningful look and then let go of her hand, saying, "Play by yourself for a while, I'll make you some ginger tea with black sugar."Jessica is now accustomed to drinking a bowl of black sugar ginger water every night before going to bed.Terry directly expressed his liking for the gift Jessica gave him by wearing the watch on his wrist the next morning.Seeing her come out, he deliberately raised his wrist and checked the time. "Today is ten minutes early, Ms. Hall can enjoy her breakfast."Jessica watched his movements and smiled, hooking her lips, as she sat down under the chair he had pulled open.On the way back to her company, Terry looked at his watch four times in total. Jessica sat beside him, unable to help but laugh.Why are you so flirtatious?It rained on Friday morning, and the weather became even
Heidy looked at Terry, her eyes changed slightly, "Mr. Davison is so afraid of me, huh?"Terry ignored her and turned around, walking straight towards the entrance.However, when he reached out his hand to grab the doorknob, he realized that the door had already been locked."It's not gonna work. The door has already been locked by Mr. Davison Jr. Tonight, you can only accompany me."Heidy leaned against the corner of the entrance hall, swaying the red wine glass in her hand. "But don't worry, Mr. Davison, I just wanted to play a little game with you.""The name of the game, well, it's a bit cliché, let's call it 'Love Test'."Heidy said, lowering her head and suddenly laughing, "Last year, my father mentioned to Mr. Davison about a marriage alliance between our Coffey family and the Davison family, but I heard that, it seems, Mr. Davison, you refused. Why, what did I do wrong that I am not suitable for Mr. Davison?"Terry's ge
Receiving such a phone call early in the morning, Hannah felt unlucky.It was raining outside, so she didn't feel like going to the office today. She decided to go later in the afternoon and instead, she decided to talk to Hollis on the phone about what had just happened.The two of them chatted for a while and Hannah ordered takeout. After having lunch, she changed her clothes and went over to the company.In the evening, Kendall drove over to pick up Hannah to go eat hot pot.The rainy weather was suitable for eating hot pot, and the hot pot restaurants had long queues. The two of them waited for a while before finding a seat.Taking advantage of Kendall's break from washing dishes, Hannah told her about Madelynn being beaten as a mistress."...You said, how could there be such a person, knowing full well that someone has a girlfriend or a wife, yet still insisting on getting involved. Does she prefer second-hand things?"Kendall placed the freshly cooked fatty beef onto her plate,
Hannah responded with a shocked expression, Hollis was probably busy and didn't reply to the message.She felt a little hungry, touched her stomach, turned around and went downstairs to find something to eat.There were three sandwiches in the kitchen, but they had already gone cold. Hannah heated a cup of milk for herself and carried it upstairs to eat.Just as I took a bite of my sandwich, Hollis sent me a bunch of messages.Hollis: Guess who Madelynn became a mistress for?Hollis: You would never guess!Hannah, of course, couldn't guess. Although she heard some noise last night, she didn't see anyone, so how could she possibly guess who it was.Hannah: I don't know, the ones I knew?Hollis: Not only did I know him, but I was quite familiar with him!Hannah raised an eyebrow: Who is it?Hollis: Derick Murphy.Hannah: ...This person is indeed quite familiar. Derick used to be classmates with Eden before, but this person is a typical playboy. His grades were not good when he was in s
As soon as Hannah got on the car, she couldn't help but look for the cookies Kendall had put down before. Kendall opened a bottle of mineral water for her and said, "Just have a little, I'll take you to have supper."Hannah took a sip of water and hummed softly, "This is my dinner!"What late-night snack? She hasn't eaten a single bite of food since around 1 o'clock in the afternoon until now!I didn't even have dinner, so where did the late-night snack come from?Kendall laughed helplessly and said, "Didn't I ask you to eat just now?""You didn't understand."Hannah touched her little belly and realized that she didn't have the same determination to exercise as Jessica. Moreover, she loved to eat more than Jessica. It was already quite difficult for her to maintain a not-so-obvious belly at the age of thirty.Not to mention the party tonight, she was wearing a fitted dress. If she wasn't careful, her stomach would just pop out. Hannah wouldn't dare to eat anything casually.She didn'
Hannah also didn't dare to answer immediately. She took her phone and started running, running for five or six seconds. She turned into another aisle before she dared to answer Kendall's video call. "Hello?""Where were you?"Kendall at the other end of the line was in a quiet environment, clearly no longer in the lobby.Hannah switched the camera, "I also didn't know where I was, after I came out of the bathroom earlier, I walked for a while and ended up here.""You share in real time, stay where you are, I'm coming over."Kendall paused and said, "Take another picture of your surroundings, is there a room?"Hannah looked around at him again before switching back to the camera and said, "No, but there seems to be a safe passage ahead. Shall I wait for you there?""No need, you stay right there. I'll come over now and hang up first.""Oh oh."Kendall hung up after speaking, and Hannah stood in place holding her phone.Kendall asked her to stay in place, and she didn't want to wander a
Hannah slept until almost ten o'clock, and when she woke up, Kendall was already not in the villa.The weather was nice today, with sunshine.She turned over and reached for her phone, intending to send a message to Hollis, but the phone suddenly rang.Hannah raised an eyebrow and looked at the unfamiliar incoming call on her phone screen. After hesitating for a moment, she finally pressed the answer button and said, "Hello, how can I help you?""Ms. Howell, I am Ricky, Mr. Hawthorne's secretary. Mr. Hawthorne asked me to deliver a dress to you. Ms. Howell, would you be available to receive it later?"Hannah raised her hand and rubbed her temples, sitting up in bed with the blanket in her arms. "When do you think you will arrive?""About ten minutes later.""OK."After hanging up the phone, Hannah immediately got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth.After changing her clothes, she went downstairs to the kitchen and looked inside. She found that the
Kendall picked a chicken wing for her, "Did you see it?"Hannah looked down and said, "I looked, and it was pretty good.""Well, I will take a look later."He didn't say much and changed the subject, "Harrington Group's anniversary celebration is tomorrow night, are you available?"Hannah glanced at him, thinking of Madelynn from before, and snorted, "Sure, I can go, right?"Kendall chuckled lightly, "I had actually planned to have you come along.""Anniversary celebration, quite grand, why didn't you say it earlier?"If she had spoken earlier, she would have gone to order a custom-made dress.Kendall looked at her with a half-smile, "Was there a difference?"Hannah hummed and said, "Of course there is a difference! There were a lot of people at the company's anniversary celebration, right? And many people brought their female companions, didn't they? As your partner, how can I let someone else's companion steal the limelight from me?"The so-called "people rely on clothing" is not ap
The atmosphere was already set, there was no way Kendall would let her just easily run away.He reached out and grabbed the back of her head, biting her lips first. Then, his peach blossom eyes slightly lifted, and with a smile, he glanced at her eyes and said, "Give me a kiss."His words sounded more like an announcement than a question.Hannah had no room for resistance and was immediately silenced by him, holding her breath.She just hummed a little, but didn't resist.Parting is better than a new marriage.Although it had only been a short two or three days since they last saw each other, Hannah still missed him. Especially when she saw the amount of money in the card yesterday, she was not only surprised but also deeply moved.Kendall spoke casually, but she also understood that the over one billion three thousand pairs was not a small amount for him now.He had separated from the Hawthorne family and was also unwilling to have any connection with his in-laws. From then on, whate
After Hollis left, Hannah didn't check out either. She called the front desk to extend her stay and then went back to sleep.Last night, Hollis dragged me and I cried all night. Hannah, who was in a deep sleep, slept until after three in the afternoon and was awakened by a call from Kendall.The sunlight outside the window was very good, and the sunlight came in through the gaps in the curtains.As Hannah opened her eyes, she was met with a beam of light, causing her eyes to sting.She hummed subconsciously, and Kendall on the other end of the phone asked, "Where did you run into?"Hannah turned around, with her back facing the sunlight, rubbing her eyes and responding, "No, just woke up, the sunlight was shining in my eyes.""Still at the hotel?""Well, last night Hollis kept me up talking until three o'clock, I was so tired."Over the past two years, Hannah hadn't stayed up late much. Last night, however, she rarely slept until three or four in the morning, essentially pulling an al
Hannah closed the door completely and turned around to find Hollis looking at her.Hollis just went to the bathroom and washed his face. Now he is more awake than before. "Did you record it?""Recorded it, do you want to take a look?""Show me, I want to see who that woman is!"Being able to get her phone number, it's possible that she was someone I knew!Hannah handed her the phone and said as she walked inside, "The person who sent you the message should not be this woman, she is an internet celebrity."She walked over to the sofa and sat down, pouring herself a glass of water. "From what I can see now, your situation isn't the worst. I reckon the woman who sent you the text message has also been deceived by Maverick."Hannah took a sip of water and looked up at Hollis, saying, "Did you take any precautions that night? If not, you should go to the hospital for a check-up."It was not her intention to discourage Hollis, people like Maverick might have some kind of illness.Hollis's f
