Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 23 For Chris
"Do you know what you're saying?" Nicholas was obviously a little mad.Shona knew that she had gone a little too far. Nicholas still cared quite a lot about his mother. "Alright, alright. I'm only saying. I was the one paying for all the medical bills in the past. I even went to take care of her for some time. I also hired a care worker. Don't worry. I'm busy with Luke's matters lately. After everything is set for Luke and Jessica, I'll go to the hospital every day to take care of Mom."After hearing those words, Nicholas's face softened. "You should treat Laura better in the future."Shona couldn't help but pout her lips. "I know, I know. When have I not treated her well..."On the morning of the next day. Laura headed off to work on her electric scooter with Chris sitting in the back seat."Good morning, Miss Walker." Shannon waved at Laura and greeted her with a big smile on her face."Morning." Laura also greeted Shannon."Miss Walker, I've bought breakfast, would you like s
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 24 Talking Back
Nicholas clenched his fists.Shona actually began sobbing. "It's all our fault. We're just useless. We don't even have enough money for our mother's treatment..."Nicholas patted Shona's shoulder.The attending doctor sighed once again. He turned around and walked towards the leader of the medical team. "Sorry for all this trouble, Dr. Shaw.""It's alright." Dr. Shaw wasn't really bothered.The medical team was allocated by Chris, so they would need to inform him of what just happened.Just when Dr. Shaw took out his phone and was about to leave. At that moment, a woman's voice suddenly sounded. "Wait..."Laura was full of sweat.There were too many people waiting for the elevator, the waiting time was too long. Therefore, Laura took the stairs."Wait, please don't leave. We agree with the treatment. I'll pay for the medical fees." Laura's eyes were a little red. Her chest heaved up and down."Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be at work?" Shona's face changed when she
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 25 Sudden Surprise
To Laura, this was a sudden surprise."Okay, they can observe. Thank you, doctor."The attending doctor breathed a sigh of relief as well and a smile appeared on his face. He looked at Laura and said, "Miss Walker, you should go prepare the operation fees so we can proceed with the operation as soon as possible.""Okay." Laura quickly nodded. She then walked towards Nicholas, who had been quiet all this time."Dad, where's the 5,000 dollars I transferred to you yesterday? Let's use it to pay for the operation fees."Laura looked at Nicholas straight in the eyes.Shona began feeling unhappy. She had just received the money and had to spend it on an old lady for her treatment."Okay, I'll go make the payment now." Nicholas finally nodded."You..." Shona wanted to say something, but Nicholas had already turned around. She quickly picked up her bag and chased after him.Seeing their receding figures, Laura wanted to find Dr. Shaw, but realized that he had already led his team into
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 26 Identity
Shona snorted at Laura's words.Nicholas nodded. "I will."Laura lowered her head to hide the look in her eyes.What Nicholas did today made her feel disappointed.It wasn't hard for the Walker family to take out 100 thousand dollars. Nicholas had made quite a lot of money after all these years of doing business outside.It didn't matter if Shona didn't want to spend money on Linda, but Laura couldn't believe that her father didn't want to spend money as well.Laura took a deep breath. She walked to the side of the road to take a taxi back to the convenience store."Miss Walker, you're back!" Seeing Laura return, Shannon's eyes lit up. "Miss Walker, the Jacobs Group bought a lot of bottled water from us today.""Really?"Laura felt that Chris came to take care of her business again.She remembered that she told him last time it wasn't necessary to take care of her business. If his colleagues found out, it would cause him to leave a bad impression.With that thought in mind,
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 27 Companionship
Nicholas sized Chris up and down and then nodded at Chris. Chris responded politely as well.Shona had already told Nicholas that this son-in-law of his had a job at the Jacobs Group. However, Chris was only a security guard. Even though Chris was handsome and had a tall figure, Nicholas still didn't really have a good impression.Everything became quiet outside the operating room. Laura sat on a bench and waited patiently.She looked calm, but the palm of her hand was actually sweating. She was also very nervous."Don't worry. Grandma will definitely be alright." Chris sensed Laura's nervousness and tried to comfort her.Laura nodded at Chris.'He's right. Grandma's going to be okay! Grandma will still accompany me for a long long time!' she exclaimed inwardly.At that moment, a phone rang. Laura looked in the direction of the sound. Shona opened her bag and took out a phone."Hello? Today at noon? Okay, no problem. I'll head over right now then."No one else knew what was sa
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 28 What Are You Thinking
Laura didn't respond. Instead, she turned and looked at Chris. She needed to ask for his opinion."I'm free all day. We can go if you want to," said Chris.Laura nodded.Linda was transferred to the ward. She had just gone through an operation and was very weak. Laura didn't stay for too long. She left quite early so that Linda could rest.Nicholas and Shona took a taxi to the hospital, but Laura and Chris drove to the hospital.Since they were going to the Walker family's house, Nicholas sat in the back seat.He looked around at the accessories in the car. After seeing that the car was just a normal car, he retracted his gaze. He didn't say anything all the way home.After arriving at the Walker family's house, Laura and Chris followed Nicholas up the stairs.As soon as the door was opened, the three of them could hear Shona laughing."Jessica, I'm not sure if the dishes I've cooked match your taste. You can tell me what you want to eat."A young man was sitting on the sofa
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 29 Pregnant
"I..."Nicholas already knew the answer after seeing Luke's attitude."Your grandmother has been hospitalized for so long and you haven't been to visit her?"Nicholas would often be on business trips. He might not be at home, but he would still tell Shona to go to the hospital often to take care of Linda. He had also told Luke to go visit Linda when he had time as well.What he didn't expect was that Luke had never even been to visit Linda even once."Alright, that's enough. Who said Luke had never gone to visit his grandmother? Luke's busy most of the time as well, but he still asked me to make some food for his grandmother." Shona saw that her son was being scolded, and she quickly stepped forward to change the subject. She then glared at Laura. "Let's not get into an argument. It's time to eat. Jessica's still here, let's not affect our happy mood."Luke pursed his lips but didn't say anything. He then gave Laura an unhappy glare but locked gazes with a pair of cold eyes.Jus
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 30 Postponing the Wedding
Shona had always had a grudge against Jessica because she asked for 40 thousand dollars as bride price. However, there was nothing she could do because her son was in love with Jessica. In the past, she had no choice but to give 40 thousand dollars as the bride price, but she didn't expect Jessica to become pregnant.She felt that it was a gift from heaven!Luke took a towel from the side and wiped his hands. He felt that Shona had a point.He didn't want to give 40 thousand dollars as bride price either, but he really liked Jessica. At first, he felt that if Jessica wanted this much, then he would give her this much. However, things were different now...Luke nodded. "Okay. Let's wait until Jessica gives birth."A smile appeared on Shona's face.She knew that she wouldn't get anything from Laura's marriage and also felt that as a security guard, Chris wouldn't be able to give her much either. She would also have to prepare Laura's dowry as well if Chris gave her a bride price.

Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 592 The Joy
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
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 591 A Warm Atmosphere
"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?" Laura turned to look
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 590 Causing Trouble
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
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 589 The Scholfield Family
"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
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 588 Attitude
Nathan waited in the police station with Amelia.About an hour later, two police officers brought a man in black and wearing a baseball cap in front of the two of them.There were wounds on his face as well. 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
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 587 Investigating Amelia
"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
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 586 Suspecting Amelia
"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. His attitude was respectful, but wasn't letting her anywhere near Jack."Do you not know who I am?" Amelia became a little angry. She co
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 585 Trouble
After losing her memories, Mrs. Summers couldn't remember anything. She didn't want to dwell on this matter since it was in the past.However, Alex wasn't going to let Nancy off that easily. "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. But if there's a next time, I'll kick you out of the Summers family myself!"Nancy qu

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. That was because she did add sleeping pills to the glass of water.She was planning on getting Chris to drink the water and then she would get someone to bring Chris to her room when he was asleep.That way, Chris would have to be responsible for her under the pressure of the Summers family.However, what Nancy didn't expect was that Alex drank the water instead of Chris.Amelia wasn't worried that Nancy would sell her out. That was because drugging Chris wasn't something appropriate
