Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 31 Arrangements For Luke
"It's not that simple, Mrs. Walker. It's not that easy to get into the Jacobs Group. I would need some time to make the arrangements, but you don't have to worry, I'll make sure everything is arranged before I go on maternity leave. I'll definitely arrange a position for Luke in the Jacobs Group.""Okay, that's good to hear." Shona quickly nodded in response. " You're so capable, Jessica. The best would be for Luke to take your place in the company. That way, when you return after you give birth to the child, he can give the position back to you and won't give others any chances to take your place."The thought of having two family members in the Jacobs Group made Shona feel overjoyed.She felt that she would be very proud after telling such news to others and they would all envy her.Chris took a call. He seemed to have something to attend to and would need to leave early.Laura nodded in agreement.Looking at Chris's receding figure, Shona pouted her lips.Laura helped tidy up
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 32 What is He Hiding?
Seeing that Laura wasn't back yet, Jessica continued, "Mrs. Walker, the houses in this community are not only expensive, they're really close to a school as well. The price of such houses will only rise in the future. If Luke and my child will be able..."Before Jessica finished speaking, Shona already knew what she was thinking."Mom, Jessica, take a seat. Here's some water." Laura passed the cups to Shona and Jessica.Jessica took the cup and smiled sweetly. "Thank you, Laura."Shona didn't take the cup, neither did she sit down. She walked around the house and took a look at the kitchen and bathroom. She then went to take a look at Laura's room. However, when she reached the room where the door was tightly shut, Laura stopped her. "Mom, you can't go into that room.""Why?" Shona felt puzzled and unsatisfied. "What are you hiding in this room? I'm your mom and even I can't take a look?""It's not that, Mom. That room belongs to Chris. He's kind of a neat freak and doesn't like
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 33 Switching Houses
Laura frowned. The question made her feel exceptionally awkward. "The house was bought by him, why?""Did he add your name to the property ownership certificate?" Shona finally remembered what Jessica had said. "I've had a look around, this house is quite close to a school. Since you're not pregnant at the moment and this house is quite small, you can have a talk with Chr... your husband and convince him to switch houses with Luke. Alright? Luke's house is way bigger than this one. It's also brand new. If it weren't for the benefit of Jessica's baby, I wouldn't have allowed you to switch houses with Luke."Shona's words made it sound as if Laura had taken advantage of her.Laura's eyes became cold. Anger arose from deep down. 'How could she do something so shameless?"Laura forced herself to remain calm. "My name isn't on the property ownership certificate, neither will I switch houses with Luke!""You not only didn't ask for any bride price, you also didn't ask for your name to b
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 34 There's No Jessica
'What the hell's going on?' wondered Laura.Shona had mentioned multiple times that Jessica was a senior executive at the Jacobs Group. She even mentioned it during lunch today."I'm not sure," said Chris. "There's no called Jessica Holland in the company's system. I've never seen her in the company either."There was only one possibility for this, Jessica was lying.Laura obviously trusted Chris. After all, he was the CEO's special assistant. Therefore, it was normal for him to be able to find out who worked in the company.All she didn't know was why Jessica had to lie.Laura became deep in thought.She and Shona weren't on good terms, but they were still a family after all. Shona was her mother, she felt that she needed to find a chance to tell Shona the truth.However, whether Shona believed her or not was none of her business.In the evening, Laura took Chris out for some barbecue.There was a food street in Empfield and Laura would often come to one of the barbecue stor
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 35 Family
Laura saw that Chris had already paid the bill and was putting his phone away."I came with my husband." Laura introduced Chris to Liam. "Chris, this is a senior at university.""You're married?" A look of disbelief appeared on Liam's face. His hands on either side of him were trembling.Laura nodded.Chris stood beside Laura. He sized Liam up and down indifferently."I do apologize." Liam smiled after locking gazes with Chris. He then reached out a hand.Chris reached out a hand as well and shook hands with Liam. However, Chris quickly pulled his hand back after a brief handshake and placed his hand into his pocket indifferently."Liam, we've just finished dinner and were about to leave. Hope you enjoy your meal," said Laura."Okay." Liam nodded, but when he looked at Laura and Chris's receding figures, his eyes darkened.Laura and Chris came on the electric scooter, so they were now headed towards the car park.On the way there, Chris suddenly said, "Did he have a crush on
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 36 She's Lying
After hearing Shona's words, Linda looked at Shona with a frown. "What are you talking about?""A house switch. Mom, I'd suggest you convince Laura about this. The house she lives in at the moment is near a school, but it's quite small. I'm planning on getting Luke and Laura to switch houses. It'll be more convenient for Jessica's child to go to school in the future. Besides, Luke's house is not only bigger, it's also newer. Laura's taking an advantage in this matter, but she wouldn't agree." Shona sounded as if Laura didn't understand what she was trying to do.Linda then said in a disdainful voice, "Are you talking about the house that Chris and Laura are living in right now? Why should they switch houses with Luke? I know you too well to let Laura take advantage of anything."Linda's words made Shona feel shameful, especially when there were other elders in the room. They all loved gossip and all looked at Shona.Shona pouted her lips. "Alright then, let's forget about switching
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 37 Less Bride Price
"Don't think I don't know what they're trying to do. They just wanted to be cheap! They want to use the child against me so that they can reduce the amount of bride price they give me!"The man squinted his eyes. He reached out a hand and rubbed Jessica's belly.Jessica looked at the man shyly. "Hey, you are rubbing my belly in public you know. However, you have no idea how happy the people of the Walker family were when I told them that my baby was a boy. It's such a joke. However, what they didn't expect is that the child in my womb is a boy, but it doesn't belong to Luke..."With that said, the man beside Jessica smiled as well. He kissed Jessica's forehead and said, "You can stay with them for now, Jessica.""Do you really want me to marry Luke whilst being pregnant with your child?""Of course, not. However, you know what I'm going through right now. I don't want you and our child to suffer with me. Therefore, I'd rather give you over to Luke and suffer by myself. I don't wan
Secret Identity of My Groom Chapter 38 Rejected
Laura felt a little puzzled. 'What's going on? Why did he reject my friend request? Did Chris accidentally click on the wrong button?'Laura wanted to try one more time, but this time she received the notification that the account didn't exist.She was rendered speechless.She had been able to find the account just moments ago, but now she couldn't find the account anymore. There was only one possibility, Chris had changed his settings to his account so that others couldn't find him using his phone number.This made Laura a little frustrated.What was the meaning of this?Laura gave Chris a call."Hello, what is it?"Chris's calm voice sounded on the other end of the line. This made Laura even more unhappy, but Laura still kept her cool. "Mr. Jacobs, why did you reject my friend request? I've chosen the Christmas decorations and wanted to send them to you to have a look."Chris was taken aback at first and then replied subconsciously, "When did you try to add me?"Laura frown

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?" Laura turned to look

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

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

"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

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
