Chris had no intention of telling Laura what happened tonight. He knew she would be very upset if he told her.

On the morning of the next day. Laura and Chris headed off to work as usual.

However, not long after the convenience store was opened, a familiar figure walked in from the outside.

Laura saw it was Madam Jacobs and her eyes lit up. She then asked in surprise, "Madam Jacobs, what brings you here?"

Madam Jacobs had quite a lot of gifts in her hand. Laura walked over and took the bags in Madam Jacobs' hands to prevent her from being too tired. She then placed the bags on one side. "Madam Jacobs, what are all these? Why didn't you tell me you were coming? Chris and I could go pick you up."

"There's no need. The neighbor's child was coming nearby so I got a lift in his car." Madam Jacobs had a big smile on her face. The fact was that she asked the driver to drive her there.

"There were quite a lot of supplements at home and I can't finish all of them by myself. I brought them

    "Do I need to report to you wherever I go?" Madam Jacobs walked up to Lewis and Helen and then began sizing Helen up and down. "Do you think very highly of yourself?""Huh?" Helen was taken aback. She didn't understand what Madam Jacobs was saying."Otherwise, why would you disturb Laura when she's working? Not only that, you also want her to look after you as well. You think it's nothing, but that's not what she thinks!"Madam Jacobs wasn't holding back at all with her words. Her words immediately made Helen's face turn red.Seeing Helen like this, Madam Jacobs couldn't help but roll her eyes.However, Lewis didn't want his wife to suffer any grievance at all. He immediately spoke on behalf of Helen. "Mom, you're here as well, aren't you? If you can come, why can't Helen?"Laura looked at Lewis in surprise. She couldn't help but think that this father-in-law of hers was a little stupid.As expected, Madam Jacobs slapped Lewis in the face and said angrily, "You unfilial bastard.

    'Not to worry. I'm all grown up now and I'm married as well. I'm also stronger,' thought Laura.When Linda arrived home, Shona was mopping the floor. When she saw Linda coming home, she raised her head. "Mom, where have you been again? Don't go running around all the time. You're getting old, what if you fall over or if something bad happens to you? We don't want such things to happen to you."Shona didn't want to go to the hospital to look after Linda again."I don't go out all the time. I've only been out today," said Linda.Shona didn't continue the topic. She noticed the things in Linda's hand. "Supplements? Mom, these things aren't cheap. Where did you buy them? Have you been spending money again?""No, well..." Linda subconsciously wanted to say that the supplements were given to her by Laura, but she was afraid that if she said such words, Shona would make a fuss again. Therefore, she decided to swallow the second half of her sentence and nod her head at Shona.Shona made

    Linda had just about finished her meal, so she went straight back into her room.Looking at Linda's receding figure, Shona poked Nicholas with the fork in her hand. "Look at what your mom had said. We were doing this for her own good. Nicholas, your mom lives with us at the moment, and we're paying for everything. She doesn't need to pay for anything, so you might as well get her to give you her pension next time. It can prevent her from spending money on unnecessary things."In the past, when Shona wanted Linda's pension, Nicholas would always refuse. However, this time, when he heard Shona's words, he hesitated and then nodded. "Okay."This answer made Shona smile.Luke saw what was happening and said, "Mom, what do the supplements that Grandma bought look like? Let me have a look."Shona took out her phone and showed Luke what she found on the internet.On the morning of the next day.Linda went out to buy some fruit. When she came back, she was about to go back to her room t

    Shannon looked at Laura teasingly and said, "I feel you're very lucky, Miss Walker. Your husband treats you very well."Shannon would always see Chris occasionally bringing some snacks for Laura, which were prepared by the Jacobs Group.Laura smiled, but didn't express her opinion. Chris did treat her very well, that was the truth."How are you and your boyfriend doing?" Laura asked while still knitting the scarf.She remembered that Shannon had told her a few days ago that she had a new boyfriend."Well." Shannon chuckled. "We're doing quite well. Compared to my previous boyfriends, he isn't the most handsome, but he's definitely the one who treated me the best. He cares a lot about me and would pay attention to my mood."At the mention of her boyfriend, Shannon seemed to have a lot to talk about. "Miss Walker, how long have you and your husband been dating before you were married?""Well..." Laura hesitated before continuing, "We met on a blind date, so we got married quite qu

    "Thank you, Liam, but that's not necessary. I've told my husband and he said that he'll drive me there."On the day when Laura received the invitation, she told Chris about the lecture. He then said that he would give her a lift to the lecture.Liam's eyes darkened when he heard those words, but he quickly smiled and continued, "Are you free this lunchtime, Laura? Do you want to have lunch together? We haven't had lunch together for ages. I just happen to want to talk to you about professional knowledge."Laura opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, a deep male voice sounded from outside the convenience store. "No, she's not free. If you have any questions, then you can ask Google."A man in a black suit walked into the store. He had a tall figure and a handsome face. His slender hands hung on either side of him. Laura immediately saw the cuff links on his wrists."These are the cuff links I bought you, right? I told you they would look great on you."Chris nodded s

    Chris and Laura showing off their relationship just now made Liam's heart ache. Especially when he heard Chris call him by his name. This made Liam grit his teeth."I'm just about to leave," said Liam.He held the bottle of water in his hand and walked out of the convenience store. However, he stopped when he reached the door. "Laura is a good girl. If you don't treat her well, then I'll definitely teach you a lesson you won't forget."Liam's words made Chris laugh. "Don't worry. I'll definitely treat my wife well. I love my wife, so I'll definitely spoil you. That's not something outsiders need to worry about."Not knowing if it was intentional, Chris was emphasizing the words "my wife". This made Liam's face turn pale. In the end, he had no choice but to leave.Liam got into his car which was parked on the side of the road. Sitting in the driver's seat, Liam punched the steering wheel in front of him.What Liam didn't notice was that as soon as he left the convenience store, a

    In order to not make things too obvious, Chris made the medicinal supplements into drinks and would give a small bottle to Laura every morning and afternoon."This drink actually tastes quite nice. Your boss treats you so well. He actually prepares in the morning and afternoon for you."Chris leaned against the counter of the convenience store and looked at Laura. He made a note of Laura's compliments in his mind and nodded seriously. "Yes, he definitely treats us well. I'm lucky to be able to work in this company.""But the drinks are limited, right? What are you going to do if you've given the drinks to me?" Laura looked at the bottle in her hand which contained the medicinal supplements."I've got more. The drinks might be limited to other employees, but I'm the CEO's assistant. I don't have any limits.""That's good then."After all, the drink actually did taste good."By the way, I've got something to show you." After finishing the drink in her hand, she took out a small ba

    About 20 minutes later.After getting out of the car, Laura ran towards the hospital located in the city center.Her lips were pursed and her eyes were red.Chris quickly parked the car and ran after Laura.There were a lot of people in the hospital and there was a long queue for the elevator, so she chose to take the stairs. Laura quickly ran up the stairs to the 13th floor.Outside the operating room on the 13th floor. Laura saw two familiar figures."Where's Grandma? How is she?" Laura ran towards Nicholas.After hearing her voice, Shona and Nicholas both looked in Laura's direction."Why are you here?" As soon as Nicholas saw Laura, he frowned."You bitch. How dare you come here? I still haven't settled the matter of your husband beating up your brother, how dare you show up here?" shouted Shona."Shut your mouth!" Laura turned and looked at Shona with cold eyes.This caused Shona to be dumbfounded."Why would Grandma have cerebral hemorrhage all of a sudden? What happe

    The two children attracted Laura's attention and she just watched them play.The two children looked a little alike. The boy was obviously a little older than the girl. They were most likely brother and sister.The little girl noticed Laura's gaze, so she walked up to her. "Are you looking at us?"The little boy noticed his sister standing in front of two strangers. He then rushed over and stood between the girl, and Laura and Chris with an alarming look on his face."Don't worry. We won't hurt you." Laura squatted down so that she was the same height as the two children."I think I know what she wants, Owen," the little girl suddenly said with a serious face."What does she want?" The little boy's face softened when he looked at the little girl."She's looking at us, so she must be wanting to play with us!" the girl said innocently and then looked at Laura. "Am I right?"Laura squatted down and pinched the girl's face with a smile. "Yes, you are! I love children who are cute l

    "Harry and I are planning to go to the beach after this, do you want to come with us?" Shannon asked Laura.After giving it some thought, Laura nodded. "Sure!"The three of them waited for about a quarter of an hour after the meal before Chris came to pick them up."Have you finished?" Chris was asking everyone but his eyes were fixed on Laura."Yes, we have. I have to admit, the food here is actually quite nice," said Harry.He seemed to not have had enough as he placed some more food in his mouth."Do you want some more? We're in no rush anyway."Laura was worried that Harry didn't have enough to eat."No, I'm full. Let's head to the beach." The thought of going to the beach and enjoying the night view with Shannon made Harry very excited."What beach?" asked Chris. He was a little puzzled."Shannon just said that they were going to the beach and asked me if I wanted to join them. It felt like a good idea to me so I agreed. Do you want to come as well?"

    Lucas and Dawn waited for a while but their food still wasn't served."What's taking them so long?" mumbled Dawn."They're probably busy. We don't have any other plans tonight, there's no rush."Lucas picked up his phone and began playing a game. At the same time, he poured a glass of water for Dawn. "Here, have some water., it'll ease the hunger"Dawn was rendered speechless.She picked up the glass, took a sip of water, and then began looking around. That was when she noticed a table of a man and two women receiving their food as soon as they sat down.Seeing that, Dawn shouted, "Waitress!"A girl in her early 20s quickly walked over to her. "How may I help?""When will our food be served? We've already been waiting for a long time." Dawn was a little dissatisfied."I'm sorry, Miss. The kitchen is already preparing your dishes and the food will be served very soon," the waitress said apologetically."What do you mean by that? We've already been waiting for ages. Not only th

    "Mr. Summers, Mr. Scholfield is waiting for you in the meeting room.""Okay."Nathan tidied his desk, picked up a file and headed towards the meeting room.As soon as he walked in, he saw Lucas sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed.Lucas had a lazy temperament and his lips were curved into a mischievous smile. He looked at his watch and said, "Mr. Summers, you're three minutes late."Nathan was used to Lucas's behavior, so he just looked at Lucas indifferently. "Here's the contract. Check to see if you have any problems with it."Lucas sat up, took the contract, and flicked through it casually. "Where's the pen?""Aren't you going to read it more carefully?""I don't think that Mr. Summers is going to trick me, right?" asked Lucas. His voice was casual and his hand was getting ready to hold a pen.Nathan smiled, took out a pen from a drawer, and signed his name on the contract before passing it to Lucas.Lucas held the pen tightly in his hand as he signed his name on the

It was obvious that he had been beaten up.One of the officers passed a delicate purse to Amelia. "Miss Summers, is this your purse?"Amelia's eyes lit up. "Yes, that's the purse I lost.""This is the person who stole your purse, Miss Summers. What do you want us to do with him?" the other officer pointed at the man and asked.After giving it some thought, Amelia said, "I've just checked my purse and nothing's missing. I'll let him off this time.""Looks like you're in luck. Quick, thank Miss Summers for her kindness.""Thank you so much, Miss Summers!""Alright, just try not to steal things in the future. You can leave now." Amelia waved her hand.After the man in black was released, Amelia and Nathan headed back home as well.Amelia then sent a text to the man in black

    "Get someone to find out why Amelia went to the police station today." Nathan gave the order."Yes, Mr. Summers. I'll get right on it." Dominic nodded and went out of the room.After giving it some thought, Nathan still felt that he should head to the police station in person to ask Amelia what she was doing.When Nathan arrived at the police station, Amelia had just finished talking to Jack."Amelia!" Nathan called out.Amelia stopped walking and turned around. She then looked at Nathan with a face full of surprise."Nathan, what are you doing here?" Amelia smiled and walked over to Nathan."I came to check if Jack had said anything else. I've also heard that you came to the police station instead of to work, so I thought I'd come to give you a lift on the way back."Amelia nodded with a smile. "Okay, I'll head back home with you once I've found my purse.""What purse?" Nathan felt a little puzzled."I was going out with a few friends, but I lost my purse on my way. There we

    "Please take a seat, Miss Summers. We've already sent men to look for your purse. We'll find it soon." One of the officers put on a big smile and tried to please Amelia when he found out that she was the daughter of the Summers family.Amelia just nodded and then went to sit on the chair.A while later Amelia asked the officer that just spoke to her, "I'm a little bored. Can I take a look around?""Sure! I can...""There's no need. I want to take a look around by myself. Notify me when you find my purse."With that said, Amelia left the reception room and began walking around the police station.She didn't get far before she saw Jack."I need to speak to Jack," Amelia said to the guard outside the cell."I'm sorry, Miss Summers. Mr. Summers gave us specific orders to keep an eye on him and not let anyone visit him."The guard stopped Amelia.

"She must be punished. Otherwise, who knows what she would do next time!"Nancy had become more and more arrogant. Alex felt that if he didn't teach her a lesson now, she would do something even worse.After hearing Alex's words, Mrs. Summers still didn't want to punish Nancy. "She's our child after all. We shouldn't criticize her too much. Everyone makes mistakes, right? Let her off this once for me."Nancy kept nodding her head after hearing Mrs. Summers' words. "Dad, I'm so sorry. I promise there won't be a next time. Please forgive me just this once."Seeing that Mrs. Summers was asking him to let Nancy off, Alex had no choice but to say, "Since your mom has forgiven you, then I'll let you off this once.

    Seeing the look on Nancy's face, Alex knew that she knew about the glass of water. His face immediately paled.Amelia quickly walked forward. "Dad, Nancy was just a little thoughtless, I think she didn't mean any harm."Her words made Alex even more infuriated. "She was thoughtless? Was that the reason to add sleeping pills to the water?"If it weren't for that glass of water, Alex wouldn't have been in a deep slumber and the things that followed wouldn't have happened.Nancy began shaking in fear.
