However, she looked at Laura a few times in an attempt to cause trouble for her. However, there was nothing wrong with what Laura had said.Laura went to the Walker family's house with Shona. She wanted to visit Linda.When Laura arrived, Linda was watching TV in her room.Laura walked inside and closed the door."Laura, how come you're here?" Linda's eyes lit up when she saw her granddaughter.Linda's room at the Walker family's house wasn't big. It was the smallest room in the house. There was a television size of a palm in the room for entertainment.There was a large liquid crystal television in the living room, but Shona felt it was too noisy and never allowed Linda to use it."I came to visit you, Grandma." Linda walked in and looked around the room. She reached out and touched the bed. "It's getting cold, Grandma. Is the bed warm enough for you? Don't you feel cold?""I don't feel cold at all." Linda shook her head. "Shona gave me a mattress yesterday. She said she bough
Laura walked inside with a cold face and closed the bedroom door.When Shona saw what Laura was doing, she placed the money in her hand back under the pillow."What are you doing, you bastard? I thought you were going to see your grandmother. What are you doing in my room?" asked Shona.Laura didn't continue to walk inside. Instead, she stood where she was and crossed her arms in front of her chest. She looked at Shona with a sarcastic smile and asked, "I came to see where are my grandmother's new clothes.""She didn't want any." Shona was in a little bit of a panic. She didn't dare to look Laura in the eyes.Laura knew that was what Shona would say.However, she didn't want to dwell on whether Shona had bought the clothes or not. She just said, "Treat my grandmother better in the future. Otherwise, I'll teach you a lesson that you'll never forget."If Laura could own her own house, she would definitely bring her grandmother over. However, she was living with Chris at the moment
Chris raised his head when he heard those words. He just happened to see the scene through the car window.Laura was leaning forward and looking at the desserts in front of her, revealing half of her familiar face.Chris had seen the man next to her. It was Liam. They had met at the barbecue shop a few days ago.Chris’s eyes immediately turned cold.“Mr. Jacobs, there’s got to be some kind of misunderstanding, right?” asked Assistant Jacobs. “Is that guy Mrs. Jacobs’ brother?”The two of them looked to be very intimate.“Keep your eyes on the road.” Chris didn’t answer Assistant Jacobs’ question. He turned away and looked coldly at the front. However, his grip on the documents in his hands tightened.They were in a contract marriage and would divorce in a year’s time, but they should remain loyal to each other within this year.Chris had originally wanted to get out of the car, but the banquet was about to start. He didn’t want to waste time on other matters.His lips curved i
"I went to the hospital with Jessica in the morning for a checkup. I then went to buy some things for my grandmother in the afternoon," said Laura. "Why?""Anywhere else?""I went to have dinner and then went to buy something." Laura didn't know why Chris was asking such a question.Chris smiled even more mockingly.He felt that Laura and Liam were having dinner last night."Laura, we are in a contract marriage, but I don't want you to cheat on me. If I find you doing so, you'll have to suffer the consequences."Chris's eyes turned cold. It was something Laura had never seen before.Laura didn't understand what was wrong with Chris, but after hearing his words, she became a little frustrated as well."What do you me? You sound like I've cheated on you.""You know what you've done." Chris glanced at Laura coldly and then headed to the bathroom.Chris's attitude made Laura want to laugh.What did he mean by she should know what she had done? What made him think she cheated on
Chris had an impulse to throw the cake away.However, because Madam Jacobs was around, Chris didn't do that. He just didn't touch the cake at all.Laura felt that there was something wrong with Chris since this morning. When he didn't even look at the cake, Laura felt a little upset. She felt like she was being self-sentimental.However, when she thought about it, she decided to eat the cake if Chris wasn't going to have any. There would be more for her anyway. It wasn't all that bad. Laura calmed down immediately at the thought.Only Chris wasn't happy, the rest of them all had smiles on their faces.Since Madam Jacobs was around, Harry had the courage to get some cream on his finger and poke it on Chris's face."Happy birthday, Chris!"However, what he got in return was Chris's cold glare.Harry was a little scared. He reached out and rubbed the back of his head. He felt that there was something wrong with Chris today. He was cold and a little depressed.If it had been in th
"Mom, back then I was young and immature." Lewis raised his hand and rubbed his head.The marriage between Lewis and his ex-wife was actually a marriage to ally two families. The two of them didn't have much feelings for each other and they got married at quite a young age.When Chris was 10 years old, Lewis was 30.20 years had passed and Lewis had been away from home for 20 years. He had rarely come back.Even if he did come back, he would only stay for a short period of time before rushing off again."You're still immature now," scolded Madam Jacobs.Lewis chuckled as he rubbed his head. He didn't agree with Madam Jacobs' words, but he didn't show it.Lewis went to the kitchen to get himself a set of cutlery and was planning on joining in the meal."The cake looks alright. Let me have a taste." Lewis reached out to pick up the knife and wanted to get a slice of cake for himself. But before the knife in his hand could touch the cake, a white and slender hand took away the cak
"How dare you ask that question?" Madam Jacobs might have missed her son, but she would still stand on her grandson's side if she had to choose between her son and grandson. "Have you ever cared about Chris in the past? It's normal for him to ignore you or treat you however he likes.""How old is he? He's already 30 years old. He's even married, why is he still so childish?""Like you were any different when you were 30 years old? Do you want me to remind you what you were doing when you were 30?" Madam Jacobs sneered.Her words caused Lewis's anger to instantly disappear. "That's all in the past. Now, I just want to make it up to them, but they don't seem to accept what I'm doing.""Chris and Harry have already done enough. At least they allowed you to stay and have lunch." Madam Jacobs didn't want to talk to this son of hers anymore. "Alright, if there's nothing else, you can leave now. I need to get some rest."Her grandsons and granddaughter-in-law had left, so Madam Jacobs di
"Didn't you say the cake was for me? Why are you putting it in the fridge?""I thought you weren't going to have any.""Why not?" Chris placed the cake on the table. "Didn't you get this whilst you were on a date with Liam? Since you guys have put so much effort into it, I can't let you down."When Chris said those words, even he didn't realize how jealous he sounded.Laura furrowed her brows. "What date? What nonsense are you talking about?""Oh, I'm talking nonsense?" Chris cocked his brows and told Laura what he saw the night before."What are you talking about? Since when was he hugging me?" asked Laura.Laura finally knew why Chris had been so sarcastic since the morning.At the same time, Laura found it funny. "I'll tell you right now, Mr. Jacobs. I wasn't on a date with Liam. I just happened to bump into him at the dessert store. I went there to get you a cake. The scene you saw was probably when he was walking past me and giving suggestions on the cakes. You've probably
