Lewis's lips moved and he finally said slowly, "I do..."After hearing the two words, Laura sneered. "Since you already know, why have you come to ask me to help her? What if the criminal seriously injured Grandma that day? What if Grandma was seriously hurt? Do you know that you're helping a tyrant? Your mother's the person who was hurt in this matter!"In the past, Laura had just felt that Lewis was just an irresponsible scumbag. But now, looking at Lewis, Laura really felt sorry for Madam Jacobs."I only just found out as well. If I had known about it before, I would have definitely prevented Helen from doing this." Lewis squatted down and grabbed his hair with his hands. There was a painful look on his face."But Helen did all that because she's in love with me. She just wants to be accepted by the Jacobs family. She didn't really want to hurt my mom.""Why does she want to be accepted by the Jacobs family?" Laura felt a little puzzled.According to what Madam Jacobs had said
"What money? You must have mistaken..."After hearing Sandra's words, the man in the cap avoided her eyes.He then took back his work badge from Sandra and ran off with his camera.Sandra didn't go after him. She looked at his receding figure and said indifferently, "If I see you doing this again, I'll see you at the police station."The man froze for a split second before running away at an even faster pace.Sandra turned back around and walked up to Laura and Lewis.Lewis was quite tall. Even though Sandra was wearing high heels, she was still quite a lot shorter than Lewis. However, that didn't mean she had a weaker temperament."Were you wanting to use public opinion to force Laura to do what you want?" Sandra sounded very confident."I don't know what you're talking about..." Lewis avoided Sandra's eyes.However, Laura realized what was going on.She had been wondering why Lewis suddenly knelt down in front of her. This was what he had in mind."You don't?" Sandra smile
Laura and Sandra walked into a cafe.The two of them made their orders and then sat opposite each other."Madam, thank you for what you've just done."Laura hadn't noticed that someone was taking creepshots back at the gates of the community.If Sandra hadn't shown up, Lewis's plan would have probably worked."It's fine." Sandra picked up the cup of coffee in front of her and took a sip. "If he comes looking for you in the future, you can just ignore him and leave."Laura nodded in acknowledgement.She didn't know what to talk about with the person in front of her. She wanted to treat Sandra to a coffee because she wanted to thank Sandra for what she did.Sandra didn't say anything else either.The two of them remained silent for a couple of minutes before Sandra finally broke the silence. "How did you and Chris get to know each other?"Laura didn't keep anything a secret and told Sandra everything about their marriage.She had thought that Sandra was going to furrow her bro
Laura then told Harry about what happened at the gates of the community that she lived in.When Harry finished listening to the whole story, he became infuriated. "How dare he ask for your help after what that woman did? Does Chris know about this?""He should be at work right now, so I haven't told him yet. I'm planning on telling him when he comes home tonight.""Laura, if you see him in the future, just walk around him and pretend he's not there. He really knows no shame!"Laura chuckled at those words.Harry's words were exactly identical to what Sandra had said."Well, I'll leave you to have your coffee here. I've got to go."It was getting late and shopping would take quite a lot of time, so Laura decided to not waste any more time."Wait, Laura." Harry stopped her.He chuckled at Laura and then took out a small gift box from his pocket."Laura, can you take a look at this for me and see if Shannon will like it?"When Laura opened the gift box, she saw a shiny bracelet
After arriving back home, Laura told Chris about what Lewis did in the afternoon.Looking at Laura's receding figure, Chris took out his phone and typed a message. "Send a few guards to secretly protect Laura in the future."Laura had no idea of any of Chris's arrangements. She was tidying her room a the moment.Time passed really quickly. Only three days were left before the New Year.The Jacobs Group gave its employees a few days off as well, but as the CEO, Chris was even busier at this time of the year.However, no matter how busy Chris was, he still made sure he had time to go with Laura to hand out the New Year's gifts.They first went to the Walker family. Laura bought some food and drinks for Madam Jacobs and gave Madam Jacobs some money.Only Linda was at the Walker family's house at the moment. Shona and Nicholas were at the hospital taking care of Luke. Luke was still hospitalized.After leaving the Walker family's house, Laura and Chris then went to visit Madam Jaco
Laura told Harry that Shannon wouldn't be in Empfield for her birthday.When Harry found out, he gave Shannon a video call straight away.The call was answered about 15 seconds later."Hello? What is it?""I..."Harry made the call because it was an act of impulse. When he saw the familiar face on the phone, he suddenly didn't know what to say."Are you going to talk or not? I'm hanging up.""Alright, alright. I'll talk." As soon as Harry heard that Shannon was going to hang up, he began to panic. He looked at where Shannon was and asked, "Where are you at the moment?""I'm in Springmount, not Empfield," Shannon said after a short pause."I... I know..."Harry suddenly wanted to slap himself.He had never been so nervous in his life. He would always be very nervous when he was faced with Shannon. He would begin to stutter and have no idea what to say."It's your birthday tomorrow, right, Shannon?""Yes.""I've prepared a gift and want to give it to you."Harry took a dee
Laura nodded and then went downstairs with Chris.Downstairs, Harry was sitting in a car that cost around 20 thousand dollars and his gaze was locked on the elevator doors.Seeing Laura and Chris coming down the stairs together, a smile appeared on Harry's face as he waved at them.Chris sized Harry's car up and down and then gave him a meaningful look.Harry chuckled at Chris. "This is my new car, Chris. What do you think?"Chris decided to just ignore him."Laura, this is the breakfast I've bought for the two of you." Harry passed the food that was left on the passenger seat and passed some to Laura and Chris.Laura took the food and said, "Thank you.""You're welcome, Laura. We're all family here, there's no need to thank me."Thanking people was Laura's habit.She smiled at Harry and then sat in the passenger seat."Chris, I'll be leaving with Laura. Don't worry. We'll definitely be back by tonight." Harry waved his hand at Chris."Be careful on the roads. Call me if th
Laura was at a loss for words. Her lips moved as she sighed and said to Shannon, "Just take it, Shannon. He's already bought it, you don't need to feel like you owe him anything."Harry nodded crazily. "That's right, Shannon. Just take it. You don't need to feel like you owe me anything. It's alright."Shannon felt that the figures were a little too valuable and would be worth a lot. She didn't want to take advantage of Harry.However, when she listened to Laura and Harry's words, Shannon knew that Harry wouldn't accept any money she gave him. She had no choice but to give up the idea."I'll take them then, thank you," Shannon said to Harry.She secretly made up her mind that she would give Harry something in return.When Harry heard that Shannon was willing to accept the gifts, he breathed a sigh of relief.He then opened the box, took out the cake, lit the candles on it and passed it to Shannon for her to make a birthday wish.Shannon looked at the cake and said, "The Pikachu
