Yasmine and Xavier had spent half their lifetime with Jessica, so naturally they had a very close relationship. Jessica was so amused by the tiny tots that her shoulders shook as she laughed. She touched Yasmine's chubby little face. "Yasmine just wants me to drive her there and pick her up!""You're so smart, Beautiful Ms. Lawson!" Yasmine continued nuzzling her. "Alright, alright! Yasmine will go to kindergarten and I'll take her there and pick her up!" Jessica smiled as she held Yasmine in her arms. Affection brimmed in her eyes as she looked at Xavier. "Xavier has always had his own thoughts. Why don't we let Mr. Millstone choose a few teachers and let Xavier decide?""Okay!" Xavier said obediently. …After Simon met with Angeline, he had a video conference with his think tank. Internal competition in Norwalk Corporation was intense, as the three heirs of the Norwalk family were constantly competing. Simon had always had a good reputation, and when they had selected
"What supplementary agreement?" Ingrid picked it up and looked through it. Her eyes widened, and she turned so pale that she barely had the strength or courage to look at Simon. Her finger almost pierced through the paper because of how tightly she held it.She wondered if Simon knew everything.Ingrid dared not ask.She was afraid of knowing the answer. The agreement wanted Ingrid to be solely responsible for any scandals that arose because of her words, actions, and morality. She would also be required to cooperate unconditionally with Norwalk Corporation's public announcements. Otherwise, there would be a hefty fine, and she would also be held responsible for the impact caused to the brand. "Do I have to sign this agreement?" Ingrid asked, lowering her head. "Ingrid, in order to save your position as the global ambassador, I agreed to collaborate with Lawson Global for the launch of a joint product right before the Minister of Finance from Marvonia flies to Ica. Do you kn
Tears streamed down Ingrid's cheeks. She choked, "I didn't want to lie to you. I never wanted to! I've been keeping this to myself, and it has been tormenting me! But I had no idea of this when I signed the endorsement contract with Norwalk Corporation, and after that, things were out of my control…" "Ingrid, crying won't solve anything," Simon comforted her gently. "Lawson Global now has a collaboration with Norwalk Corporation, so they wouldn't want anything to happen to our ambassador either. Lawson Global won't spread this news, and we'll also negotiate with Ms. Emmerson to keep this secret together. "However, Norwalk Corporation has paid a high price to keep you as the global ambassador, and I need to give them assurance. This supplementary agreement will put all our minds at ease." If Linda had been present, Ingrid would have discussed the supplementary contract with her first. But now…She looked up at Simon with her tearful eyes and sobbed. "Ned wants to call off our e
Ingrid felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Everything that she had found strange now made absolute sense. No wonder Ned had suddenly seemed to accept the bankruptcy of Fletcher Corporation, whereas before that he had been running himself ragged for the company. He hadn't been afraid, not even when Barry had beat him severely.He had been atoning for what he had done to Angeline. Maybe Ned had insisted on calling off their engagement because he wanted to atone for his mistakes with Fletcher Corporation and pursue Angeline again! According to the stories about Ned and Angeline circulating in Oceanford, Ned had always been the wild, passionate one. He would do anything for Angeline, and he listened to every word she said. In the same way, he would give up anything for her, even his life. This had been the kind of love that Ingrid had once desired the most!That was why she had done her utmost to imitate Angeline and attract Ned. However, a counterfeit product coul
Ingrid couldn't understand how Angeline could be so cruel as to ruin Ned's life despite his wish to get back together with her. She wondered what Angeline would get out of this. The more Ingrid thought about it, the more she felt wronged for both Ned and her. "To Lawson Global!" Ingrid ordered the chauffeur with red eyes. Angeline went through the contract with Lara and her team in the meeting room at Lawson Global. "Your team is very efficient, Ms. Lara." Angeline smiled. "Time is money! Of course, we have to do this quickly!" Lara replied. She smiled and asked, "So, Ms. Lawson, you mentioned you would choose a person from Scott Incorporated yourself to be in charge of connecting with Lawson Global. Have you made your decision?" "I do. I would like Ms. Monica Scott to be in charge of it," Angeline answered politely. Lara and her team turned their head toward Angeline, surprised by her answer. Lara's team looked at each other in confusion and speechless.They all kne
Jamie wondered why an actress would look for Ms. Lawson. "She said she was Ms. Lawson's junior," Sarah replied. "Alright. I'll let you know after Ms. Lawson comes out of Mr. Lawson's office," Jamie said. …Angeline answered Simon's phone call in Sean's office. He had agreed to release a collaboration piece with Lawson Global and had delayed his return trip. After hanging up the phone, Angeline smiled and told Sean, "Norwalk Corporation had no problem with the collaboration. We can announce the collab during the announcement of the Minister of Commerce of Marvonia's trip to Ica. "Also, the video of Simon and I having a meal had worked. The collaboration with Fontenay is also progressing." Sean stared at Angeline, who looked sparkling when talking about work, and said, "When I'm gone, I would only worry about someone coveting for you instead of you ceasing to be faithful." "Huh?" Angeline stared at Sean in confusion. "I mean… It seems you only have work in your mind." Se
Angeline's relationship with Sean was complicated. She had to be cautious so that no one noticed them. Otherwise, as Brayden had said, it would taint the Lawson family's name. Angeline stiffened as she heard a door knock and pushed Sean away. But Sean sucked on her tongue in return with a strong, possessive instinct of a man. As the knock at the door sounded again, Angeline patted Sean while panting. "Just a moment, please!" Sean helped Angeline comb her stray hair and switched off the switchable glass before stoically sitting behind the desk. "I'll take my leave then." Angeline opened the door with the phone in her hand. Taylor greeted Angeline outside the door, "Hello, Ms. Lawson." Angeline lightly nodded and left Sean's office before being stopped by Jamie. "Ms. Lawson, the receptionist said Ingrid Dalton, the actress who's also the global ambassador for Norwalk Corporation, wants to meet you. "She said she's your junior." Angeline looked at Monica's phone number a
Ingrid couldn't control herself and cried, "Ned is about to break off our engagement and return to your side. But why are you still hurting him? What do you get out of this?" Angeline stared at the cathartic Ingrid before leaning back onto the couch and asking, "Did I force Tommy to stay in the casino and gamble away? Or did I urge him to steal the formula to repay his debt? "Yes, I'm the founder of Vitality Biotech Group. But what proof do you have to accuse me of making Fletcher Corporation go bankrupt? Did I tell them to exploit the loophole in the contract with Vitality Biotech Group to collaborate with Yates Group? Did I tell them to steal and sell our formula?" "Excuses! Whatever you tried to explain, it was you who framed Tommy!" Ingrid accused while weeping. "If you have the proof, go to the police instead of me. I'll cooperate with the police investigation," Angelie replied coldly. "And about Ned breaking off the engagement with you, it's none of my business. I'm not a
