Bethany went into the kitchen at the condominium to keep the items she brought from the supermarket. Then, she brought out her phone and put a video call to Erica.The children were overjoyed to see Bethany on the other side of the phone as soon as the phone was connected and their faces appeared on the screen."Mommy, why did you buy so many ribs?" Jenna asked curiously when she saw Bethany taking out the ribs from the shopping bags.Bethany smiled as she replied, "I'm going to cook some soup for Mr. Meyer. He was injured when he saved mommy. I need to express my gratitude.”“Mr. Meyer? Who is that?” Jenna furrowed her brows as she asked with jealousy written all over her.“He's my boss, did you forget? ”“oh, oh!” Jenna nodded and said that she understood.Bethany clapped her hands and looked into the phone and said, "Go and play with your sister. Mommy needs to cook now."“Can I stay here and watch you cook? I want to learn something new as well” Jenna whined as she was unwilling to
Bethany looked at Jenna and said, “You should be off to bed now. I'll make arrangements for you,” she said with an assuring tone. Jenna didn't say anything else as she simply walked away, heading toward her bedroom, while Erica fixed her eyes on her, departing back until she was finally out of sight. When she was totally out of the scene, Erica picked up the phone and looked directly into the screen as she prepared to scold Bethany. “I told you right from the beginning, didn't I? Whatever you do is going to have a bad effect on the little girl, but you wouldn't listen to me. “Have you seen what I was afraid of? Jenna is traumatized. ” Erica said as tears seemed to well up in her eyes, and she tried to fight them off. However, Bethany remained unfazed. Instead, she said,“ I want you to connect with Mr. Alcantara and make her sign all of the agreements before the end of the month.”. Hearing this, Erica was stunned. “What are you even saying? I'm talking about your daughter, and yo
Bent stood in front of the door and knocked loudly. Zayn, who was still busy discussing with Bethany, was instantly pissed off when he heard the loud knock on the door. He thought that Danica had still not left even after he asked her to go.“What are you still doing here? Didn't I —”Zayn yelled before flinging the door open; however, he was shocked by the appearance of the person standing before him. It wasn't Danica at all."Woah! Watch out, man!" Bent shouted as he tried to dodge in a dramatic turn. "Were you expecting me, perhaps? You should have told me earlier,” Bent said as he straightened up his suit. His tone was filled with mockery.“How could you target your innocent brother like that? I simply came around to visit you, and you have other malicious codes waiting for me? I'm so hurt by this!” Bent pretended to be sad.While mincing on his words, he silently pushed Zayn aside and sneaked into the room before Zayn could think of shutting him out.“You.....” He was about to say
Erica felt her mood getting soiled when she heard that Zayn was going to pick up Danica. What a bad day it was about to be! Why did Bethany even think of bringing me here? Erica thought. She was so lost in thought that she didn't realize that Zayn had taken Jenna to the car. Upon getting close to the car, he suddenly noticed that Erica was still fixed at the spot. He looked back and called out for her, “Miss Burnett, are you alright?”. Erica quickly came out of her daze when she heard him calling out for her. “Yes, I'm alright Mr. Meyer. I'll be right there” With that, she hurried over and got into the car. When she got into the car, she noticed Jenna sitting in the front seat along with Zayn. That's not even the issue but how close and intimate they were with each other at this moment. They were like an inseparable father and daughter bonded by love. Seeing this, Erica felt her heart racing very fast and she couldn't do anything to control it; she was afraid of what Bethany migh
He walked into the kindergarten together with the children. He attracted a lot of attention. Zayn was handsome, Bethany was pretty and the two children were cute. They attracted a lot of attention for being such a good-looking family.A few minutes later, the kindergarten teacher finished taking attendance and everyone arrived. They then told everyone to head to the amusement park.The children had never been to an amusement park before, especially Jordan. They were curious about everything they saw. It was crowded in the amusement park. Bethany was worried that they would lose the children and hence she held Jordan's hand while Zayn held Jenna's.They followed the teacher's instructions and brought them rides that were suitable for children and families. They were at it for many hours. Soon, Bethany was tired and she didn't want to move anymore. Zayn was fine. Due to his injury, he didn't join in the fun too much. He was taking pictures the whole time and hence he wasn't tired But t
The next day, Joanna arrived at the office and down. But she soon heard someone yelling "What happened?"I have no idea. She's here for Ms.Quest” Everyone in the main office looked at Bethany in unison. Bethany frowned and stood up, and suddenly saw a woman standing at the door.She stood there with arms akimbo and an angry face, obviously looking for trouble.Bethany didn't want to disturb everyone working, so she walked over and closed the door of the office to prevent everyone from seeing the fun. Then she asked coldly, "What's the matter with you?”She raised her hand while gnashing her teeth and was about to hit her in the face.Bethany narrowed her dark brown eyes and slammed her head, avoiding the woman's slap. Then she grabbed her hand and said with a cold face, "You want to hit me?" "The person that I hit is you bitch. I will make you ashamed if you dare to seduce my nephew!” she glared at Bethany. fiercely."When did I seduce your nephew!” Bethany shook her hand away.She
Joanna didn't notice Bethany had calmed down. The panic of being unable to defend herself when Bethany was framed just now was almost gone. Joanna snorted. "Daphne can't accept someone stealing my position at the company. I provoked her a little, and she naturally came to you. Zayn won't cancel my position within the company because of her.” "Why? Bethany's look evaded and she continued to make her talk. Joanna replied triumphantly, "Because everyone knows that you are a mistress. If Zayn cancels me, he'll suffer from public criticism and the stock price of Blue Ridge Group will fall. Zayn is a smart businessman. He knows what to do and what not to do." "Indeed." A look of irony flashed across Bethany's face. Joanna suddenly pulled down her face.“ I just didn't expect that Daphne would be hurt, but I'm not scared about that. You're a ready-made scapegoat." "Are you so sure that no one knows the truth?” Bethany raised her eyebrow. Joanna let out an evil smile. "Of course, the
"What If I say no?" Bent took a step back while carrying Bethany.He deliberately rushed over to save her because he wanted her to owe him a favour. That way, he would have a betterreason to approach her, win her heart, and achieve his goal.Therefore, how could he let Zayn interfere?However, when Zayn saw that Bent was not releasing Bethany, his eyes narrowed, and he shouted, “Gael”“Yes!" Gael got out of the car. When he was behind Bent, he clamped both of Bent's arms."What are you doing?" Bent's expression changed as he spoke with undisguised annoyance.Gael said with a smile, "Bent, I advise you not to move. Otherwise, you will drop Ms. Quest."Upon hearing these words, Bent, who initially wanted to struggle free, could only stay still and watched Zayn snatch Bethany from his hands. Zayn carried Bethany in his arms and was about to get into the car. Bent suddenly said, "Zayn, do you know who your actions resemble? A jealous man!". Zayn was stunned. Then he regained his naturaln
