Disgust flashed in Chris's eyes and his brows were furrowed.

Jennifer felt that the middle-aged woman had a point. She turned to Laura and asked, "Laura, you've just started eating, right? Then we can sit together. There aren't empty seats here anymore. We would have to wait at least half an hour in a queue as well. We won't need to order another fish. We can just add some more side dishes and drinks. How about that?"

Jennifer looked at the fish that was left on the table and the side dishes.

The rest of the fish was enough for the three of them. They would be full after adding some side dishes. With Laura here, they wouldn't even have to pay the bill.

Jennifer had a good plan in her mind. Before Laura could say yes, she already called for a waiter. "Waiter, please add three more sets of cutlery."

"Wait," said Laura. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Holland. I think you should wait until we finish."

Jennifer was dumbfounded. She couldn't believe her ears. "Laura, what's the meaning of this? You

    The two of them worked together and made the crowd begin to blame Laura for what she was doing."It's not right to treat a pregnant woman like this, right? How can the sister-in-law be so mean...""What the hell's going on here? The girl's sister-in-law isn't letting her sit with her?""The sister-in-law seems to be with her husband. A couple came out on a date. I saw the three of them coming in from the outside and wanted to sit with them. They may be relatives, but I don't think it's appropriate.""But isn't that girl pregnant? She should treat a pregnant woman, right?""A pregnant woman out shopping for a whole day? If she doesn't take care of herself, how does she expect others to take care of her? What is she thinking?""It's other people's business. Let's not get involved."Jennifer stood next to the table with one hand on her waist and the other pointing at Laura. She then took out a phone and looked like she was about to make a call. "I'm going to ask Shona what is she g

    When Laura was opening the box slowly, she didn't see what was inside, but Chris did.His grip tightened around the box of condoms. Chris hid the condoms under the pillow.Both of them would have to go to work the next day. Laura got up early to make breakfast.The weather was quite cold recently, so Laura didn't ride the electric scooter. Chris drove them to and from work.Not long after Laura arrived at the convenience store, a few familiar figures appeared outside.Laura was very calm when she saw them."Laura, what happened? What did you do yesterday?"Shona walked inside with a bag. Behind her was Jennifer and Jennifer's friend, the middle-aged woman from yesterday.Jennifer became furious the moment she saw Laura.Laura left yesterday without even telling them and left them to pay the bills.Those dishes had cost her over 100 dollars."I didn't do anything." Laura wiped the counter very calmly.Shona frowned and became a little impatient.Jennifer came to the Walker

    "So what if you're Jessica's godmother? What? Are you expecting Jennifer to give you some of the things we give her during festivals?"The middle-aged woman's eyes lit up when she heard those words.That was something she could accept as well.However, Jennifer was unwilling to do that.How could she give away the things that her son-in-law had given her?"Jane, wait for me outside. I'll deal with this." Jennifer gave the middle-aged woman a meaningful look and pushed her out the door.After the woman was gone, Jennifer coughed. "Shona, don't listen to her nonsense. Jessica doesn't have any godmothers. She's just my neighbor.""I see," said Shona.Jennifer nodded. "That's right. However, the main reason I came here today isn't because Laura didn't treat us yesterday. It's because I feel Laura had a poor attitude. Jessica's pregnant after all. Laura wasn't even letting Jessica sit down at first. What if she had a miscarriage?"Jennifer's words made Shona's heart skip a beat.I

    Laura remained silent.What would happen to Jessica after she married Luke had nothing to do with her. She wasn't someone who would look for trouble. As long as Jessica didn't cause her trouble, she wouldn't do anything to Jessica.Shona smiled and nodded at Jennifer. "Of course, she will. Don't worry, Jennifer. Jessica will never suffer with us."Deep down, Shona didn't really like Jennifer. However, for the good of her son and the child in Jessica's womb, Shona forced a smile on her face.Jennifer was getting ready to leave. She was planning on finding Laura today and getting Laura to give her the money from yesterday. Otherwise, she wouldn't have felt comfortable.However, Jennifer was afraid that Laura was going to keep asking about Jessica's job at the Jacobs Group. If Laura really went to the Jacobs Group to look for Jessica, then things would get really complicated.Jennifer was about to leave when the middle-aged woman outside came back in."Jen, how are things going?

    "Let them take whatever they want." Laura's lips curved into a sneer. She didn't try to stop what Jennifer and the middle-aged woman were doing. She lowered her head, unlocked her phone and sent out a text message.When Shannon saw what Laura was doing, she nodded and stood to one side.Jennifer and the middle-aged woman filled a number of plastic bags and only stopped when they couldn't hold anymore.Jennifer already had a big smile on her face.The things she was holding added up to way more than 100 dollars.She felt that she made the right decision to come here today.'Thanks to Jane, or I wouldn't have thought to take things from this store,' thought Jennifer."Shona, Laura, we'll be leaving now. You should come over to our house sometime. Jessica has missed you." Jennifer was holding bags in her hand and had a bottle of whiskey clamped under her armpit as well.Laura didn't say a word. She watched as the two of them left the store.However, before they could get far and

    Shannon played along and brought out the card machine. She chuckled and said to Jennifer and the middle-aged woman, "Ladies, you don't look like you've brought a lot of cash. It's alright, we have a card machine here.""You're being unreasonable. I don't have any money and won't be paying for them. I don't want these things anymore!" the middle-aged woman shouted and threw the bags in her hand on the ground. She also kicked the bags as well. One of the bottles of alcohol shattered.Laura wasn't annoyed at all. "It's alright if you don't pay. Since you mugged the things from my store, the police are already here. I'll have to ask them to take you away to bring justice.""Don't worry, Ma'am. We will definitely treat everyone equally. We won't let any victim suffer."The police officer at the front nodded at the officers behind him. The officers got their order and walked towards Jennifer and the middle-aged woman."Ladies, please follow us.""What are you doing? What do you want?"

    After knowing that Laura was fine, Chris felt relieved. He placed one hand in his pocket and the other hand was holding the phone and typing with it."Ring me if there's anything." Chris typed another message.Chris was very protective. He wasn't going to let his wife get hurt under his watch.Laura replied with an "OK" sticker and a smiling emoji.During lunchtime, Laura quickly ate lunch and headed out the store with something in her hand.She wanted to head back to the Walker family's house during lunch. The pair of gloves and the scarf she bought online for her grandmother had arrived. She was taking them to her grandmother.She came to work in Chris's car in the morning, so she didn't have her electric scooter with her.

    "Come with me right now and apologize to Jessica's mother. Give her back the 2400 dollars as well. She's my mother-in-law, that means she's yours as well. How dare you ask her for money when she just takes some things from you. Are you out of your goddamn mind?" Luke was absolutely furious. "If you're not coming with me, then Jessica's going to have an abortion and you'll be the murderer, you son of a bitch! How can I have a sister like you?"The cruel words came from Luke's mouth and stabbed into Laura's heart like daggers.Laura stood where she was and didn't do more. She felt a chill down her back.She did have problems with Luke in the past, but that all came from Luke asking her for money. He would always spend money recklessly. Once she found out, she would stop giving him money. Apart from that, Laura still cared about this brother of hers.When they were little, Nicholas had gone out to work and Shona liked going out and playing poker with her friends. Laura would be the on

    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

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.

    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.
