With that said, Laura tucked herself in under the bed covers and turned her back to Chris.'Used to it? She doesn't feel comfortable sleeping with me?' Chris furrowed his brows and became a little upset."Come here," he said to Laura."No! I'm sleeping by myself."Laura's voice wasn't loud. She stayed under the bed cover and thought about the photo she saw today. Laura felt her heart aching when she thought of the photo. It caused her to not want to talk to Chris.Chris stood by the bed and looked at Laura for a while silently.'Does she not like my hug?' he wondered.Not knowing how long had passed, seeing that Laura still had her back to him and wasn't willing to move, Chris turned and left the room.As soon as Chris left, a phone rang.Laura thought it was her phone, so she got up and looked in the direction of the noise. That was when she realized it was Chris's phone that received a message.Looking at the lit screen, Laura saw a message sent by someone named "M"."I re
The time of the exhibition was Saturday morning.Laura rolled her eyes a little. "I kind of want to go.""There are a limited number of tickets, but I'm experienced at things like this. Don't worry, Laura. I'll definitely get you a ticket." Shannon patted Laura on the shoulder.She felt that she would definitely be on her friend's side for such a matter.Laura gave Shannon a grateful look. "Alright, I'll transfer you the money for two tickets. I'll treat you to the exhibition as well."Shannon chuckled in response.It was soon Friday evening.Chris was had the tickets to the exhibition and was going to ask Laura if she wanted to go or not.However, before Chris could say anything, Laura opened her mouth and said, "I have plans tomorrow.""What plan?" asked Chris."I'm going shopping with Shannon tomorrow." Laura's face was indifferent.Chris had no choice but to nod his head. "Alright then. I'll head on a business trip tomorrow then."Chris had originally canceled his plans
Shannon was speaking quietly, so Mike didn't hear what she said.Laura didn't answer. She wrapped her arms around Shannon's and followed behind Mike as they walked forward.Mike introduced the sculptures around them to Laura and Shannon enthusiastically and told them where the inspiration came from.Laura and Shannon had planned on meeting Mike today, but they ended up lost in Mike's words.They had to admit that Mike was very talented."My two beautiful ladies, may I add you on WhatsApp?"At the end of the exhibition hall, Mike took out his phone from his pocket and wanted to add Laura and Shannon on WhatsApp.Laura and Shannon looked at each other and then nodded at Mike.After adding the two of them on WhatsApp, Mike saw the two of them out of the exhibition hall and waved goodbye.A mixture of feelings arose in Laura's heart.She felt that Mike was a very talented individual. Even she admired him a little from what they had talked about just now.Laura felt that it was n
Lena nodded in acknowledgement. "Okay, I'll do my best, Jessica."'I'll do my best to take your place,' Lena said inwardly.After dinner, Jessica and Lena looked at each other. Then Jessica found an excuse to take Linda, Shona, and Cola out.That meant there were only Lena and Luke left in the house.Luke had recently found a job. After dinner, he stayed in his room and was reading the documents that were required the following day.Lena knocked on the door and walked inside with a glass of milk."I've brought you a glass of milk, Luke." Lena smiled and walked up to Luke. She then raised her hand and caressed her hair.However, Luke didn't even look at her. He kept his head down and said, "Thank you, but I'll pass. You can keep it for yourself."Lena didn't move after hearing Luke's reply. Instead, she placed the glass of milk on Luke's desk.She kept her eyes on Luke's face. The more she looked at him, the more she liked him.Luke's appearance really suited her taste. Not on
Luke was rendered speechless."What are your thoughts on this?" Laura asked.She felt that Lena had developed feelings for Luke and wanted to replace Jessica. This meant that she wouldn't let Jessica get a share of the Walker family's assets."I don't have any feelings for her." Luke typed his reply.It was inappropriate for Laura to get involved in this matter. After all, she hadn't met Lena. Besides, this matter was about love and only Luke could make the decision himself."You're going to have to make the decision yourself. However, you do still have to keep your guard up to prevent Lena from testing you."Luke knew what Laura meant.After all, Lena and Jessica were cousins. It was possible that Jessica asked Lena to test Luke to see if he was still suspicious whether Cola was his child or not.What Luke needed to do now was to alert the enemy.In the evening, Jessica and the others came back home.As soon as Jessica came back home, she looked at Lena. Lena shook her head.
"If there's proof to prove that Jessica married you only for the money, car, and house, then it'll be easy to sue her. We can sue her for fraud, but we don't have any proof right now. Even if Cola isn't your child, he is still the child Jessica was pregnant with during the time when the two of you were together. The child might not be yours, but that could only prove she cheated on you. It couldn't prove that she had committed fraud. The only thing we can do now is to get the paternity test and then think of a way to let Jessica change the car and house to your name or get the equivalent in cash. This is to transfer your assets. That way, Jessica won't be able to get anything when you sue her and file a divorce." Lena's lips curved into a sneer.The truth was that she really did feel sorry for Luke.He treated Jessica really well. As for Jessica, she not only didn't treasure him, but also wanted to commit fraud as well.Therefore, Lena made up her mind that she would treasure what J
Laura felt a little sad and didn't want to talk to Chris.She put down her phone and rolled over so that she had her back to Chris.Chris looked at Laura and didn't know what was wrong with her.When he went into the bathroom for a shower, Chris seemed to have thought of something and took out his phone from his pocket. After that, he went on Google."Why is my wife unhappy all of a sudden recently?" Chris typed his question in the search box.Google then popped up with countless results. One of them said that the wife might be in her period and it caused her to be quite emotional.Chris thought about it and felt that it was a possibility.He placed his phone back into his pocket and then went to buy some tampons.When he got back home, he gave Laura the tampons.This caused Laura to be confused."Why are you giving me tampons?" Laura didn't know why Chris was doing such a thing."Would this help with your periods?" asked Chris.Laura widened her eyes in shock. "Why told I
Although no one said that women couldn't smoke, it was still rare to see a woman smoke."No wonder she has good looks, but her voice isn't so great. It's probably because she smokes." Shannon pouted her lips.Shannon didn't really have a good impression of Mike. She even found Mike a little disgusting.After all, she thought Mike was a homewrecker.Laura remained silent. She lowered her head and looked at her phone. That was when she saw a message from the owner of the convenience store."I'm going to hold the annual summary meeting in three days' time. The meeting will be held in Brosland.""What's an annual summary?" Shannon was a little confused.Laura explained what an annual summary was to Shannon.Their convenience store was a national chain. They would hold an annual summary every year and reward the employees of the top 10 stores.Shannon's eyes lit up when she heard such news. "Will we have hope to become one of the top 10, Laura?"Laura thought about it and said, "W
