When Nicole walked into the office, Sir Wayne was sitting behind his desk.

"What is it, Grandpa?"

Nicole looked around in an attempt to find a chair, but the only chair in the room was the one that Sir Wayne was sitting on.

Nicole had no choice but to stand and gave Sir Wayne a puzzled look.

Sir Wayne put down the pen in his hand and raised his head to look at the granddaughter he had adopted. "You're here."

Nicole nodded. " Grandpa. Why have you asked me to come here?"

Sir Wayne had an indifferent look on his face, so Nicole couldn't tell what he was thinking.

"Do you have enough money to spend recently?" asked Sir Wayne.

'Does this old man want to give me money?' wondered Nicole.

No one would feel that they had enough money and Nicole was no exception.

She thought about it and said, "I have enough money to live off, but I don't have enough money to buy the bags that I want..."

"How much are the bags?"

    "Grandpa, what's the meaning of this? Do you not believe me? Other elders always trusted their children and handed control of the company to them quite early on. But do you think you can suspend me using just a transaction order?""This is for your own good, Nicole.""For my own good? Is that why you've suspended me from coming to the company to work?""I'll make sure you have enough money to spend."Nicole was unable to handle all the twists and turns in business yet."You're right. You will make sure that I have enough money to spend. But it's only just enough for me to survive. You only give me 40 thousand dollars a month. What's that enough for? All my friends of hundreds of thousands of dollars each month. Now, I can't hang out with them, because they'll laugh at me. If you can't give me enough money, why did you adopt me?"Nicole picked up the glass that Sir Wayne placed on the desk and threw it on the floor. She then turned on her heels and walked out of the office. She al

    It took a week before Laura was able to re-open her convenience store.On the day of the re-opening, Luke even brought some gifts for Laura."I had to move mountains to get you these gifts, Laura. Grandma helped me with them as well."Luke placed the gifts on the counter.Laura nodded. "How's Grandma lately? I'm planning on taking her to the hospital for a checkup soon.""She's much more energetic now and feeling better than ever."Luke didn't stay for too long.He had found a job recently and was just passing by Laura's convenience store.

    "I asked her a few times to seduce Luke, but she didn't succeed. Luke still remained very loyal towards me," said Jessica.Deep down, Jessica trusted Luke, but Jennifer had a different thought.After all, she was quite a lot older than Jessica.Jennifer looked at the pictures that Lena had taken and said, "Don't be so confident about men."She knew that Jessica wasn't as good-looking as Lena."The thing I'm worried about right now is that Lena is having plans of her own. We were the ones who asked her to seduce Luke, but I'm afraid that she might have her own plans and want to replace you."A ruthless look appeared on Jennifer's face."She won't dare!" Jessica widened her eyes. "Who does she think she is? How dare she want to replace me?"Jessica sneered. "Even if she wants to replace me, Luke won't agree to it.""Then tell me why hasn't Luke called you over the past week? He didn't even text you. Is that normal at all? Think about it. Lena has been living with the Walker fami

    Looking at the expression on Lena's face, Jessica felt a little suspicious. "Really?""Really!" Lena kept on nodding her head.In order to convince Jessica even more, Lena walked behind her and began massaging her shoulders with an earnest face.Lena's actions caused Jessica to not be able to see anything wrong with her."How are things going? Did you succeed?"Lena shook her head. "Not yet.""Alright, you can stop the massage now."When Jessica heard that Lena hadn't succeeded, she felt annoyed and happy at the same time. At least she knew that Luke still only loved her during the week that she was away."I'll give you another week. If you can't succeed by then, I'll get someone else to do it!""Okay. I'll try my best." Lena had a smile on her face, but her heart sank.'It seems that I need to speed things up,' she thought.In the afternoon.When Laura was going through the accounts of the store, a familiar face walked in."Are you busy, Laura?" Lena walked into the conve

    However, it didn't matter what position Chris was in. All Lena needed was that he was an employee of the Jacobs Group."Does Chris know any senior executives of the Jacobs Group? Or can he pretend to be a senior executive?" asked Lena as she observed Laura's reaction."The man that Jessica's on Luke with is called Tristan. His family runs a small company. Before Tristan took control, the company was able to make some money, but things changed when Tristan took over. He doesn't know how to run a company at all. He's also a playboy. Only Jessica was foolish enough to believe him."Lena's voice became disdainful when she said those words."From what I know, Tristan's company is going to be bankrupt soon. He's recently been trying to find a way to solve this crisis. I was wondering if Chris could do me a favor. It's best if he knows a senior executive of the Jacobs Group. If not, then can he pretend to be a senior executive and do some business with him? Doing business would require mo

    The person who rushed into the convenience store quickly waved at Laura and said, "Just let me hide in here for a bit, thanks."With that said, he turned around and hid behind the shelves.Laura was stunned when she looked behind the shelves.She felt the person that just rushed into the store looked like Mike. But he had short hair.'Has Mike gotten a haircut?' wondered Laura.Before Laura could get her mind around things, a gentle woman's voice sounded in the store. "Hello, have you seen a man come in here?"The young woman was wearing a leather skirt and had soft facial features.When the woman saw Laura, she was slightly taken aback.Laura smiled and said, "No. I didn't notice anyone coming in."A puzzled look appeared on Amelia Summers' face.She was sure that she saw Mike coming into the store. She looked around to make sure that Mike wasn't in the store."Thank you. Sorry for disturbing you." Amelia pursed her lips.After saying that, she turned around and left. Howe

    Mike couldn't help but sigh."A daughter of the Summers family... don't they have a daughter?" asked Chris."Are you talking about Amelia Summers? She's adopted." The mention of Amelia's name gave Mike the shivers. "Mr. Summers was worried about his wife, so he adopted Amelia from an orphanage to keep Mrs. Summers company. The only thing was that Amelia wasn't related to them by blood. However, Amelia is a very lucky girl. She was adopted by the Summers family. I wish I could be adopted by the Summers family."

    Mike acted as if he had heard something terrifying and quickly waved his hands at Amelia. "No! Don't!"He was truly terrified.'Can't this woman tell that I don't like her? I've made it pretty obvious. Why is she still following me around? She really knows no shame,' thought Mike.He couldn't help but feel annoyed. But when he thought of what his father would do to him, he had no choice but to sit there with Amelia. Mike seemed to have sensed something and looked around. He looked around and just happened to lock gazes with Laura and Chris.He acted as if he had seen his savior and quickly said, "Chris, you're here as well?"Mike walked over and sat next to Chris with his plate. "Well, Chris, how about we eat together?"He didn't want to face that woman anymore. He had enough of her.Amelia was taken aback as well when she saw Laura. the expression on her face returned to normal the next second.

    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

    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

    "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.
