With that thought in mind, Zack couldn't help but feel happy."Then it must be one of Mr. Harry's subordinates, who secretly drove the car out. Mr. Jacobs, you can't keep such unloyal people around. It's best to fire him."Lewis nodded with a dark face. "Okay, I'll remind Harry."Zack was overjoyed as he followed behind Lewis into the Jacobs Group. Soon, he saw a familiar figure inside a convenience store."Mr. Jacobs, it's her! That's her!" Zack quickly said. "I didn't expect to see her here. It's her husband that has been driving Mr. Harry's car."Zack's words made Lewis stop dead in his tracks."What's her name again? I think it's Laura." Zack didn't notice the strange look on Lewis's face and continued, "Mr. Jacobs, I'll take you over right now.""There's no need." Lewis stopped Zack.'Isn't Laura's husband Chris? Harry is unwilling to lend his car to anyone, but he would be willing to lend his car to Chris. But I thought Chris didn't tell Laura about his identity. Why woul
Emily couldn't help but say, "Are all mistresses nowadays such show-offs?"Whenever she thought of how much of a show-off Jasmine was being, she felt annoyed.Emily glanced at Laura and asked, "Laura, do you think we should tell others about this? We can work together in the group chat and expose Jasmine for who she really is.""Let's not do that." Laura shook her head.She wasn't interested in other people's matters."Why?" Emily gave Laura a puzzled look. "She was clearly against you last night at the gathering, can't you tell? Don't you want to get back at her?"Laura smiled. "There's no need to make a fuss about it."She could tell Jasmine was against her, but there were a lot of people in this world who didn't like her. Jasmine and her wouldn't normally see each other anyway. There was no need to waste time and effort.Emily fell silent and didn't say another word. A few seconds later, she smiled and changed the subject. "Do you have time tonight, Laura? You get your husba
Her voice was loud. When Emily heard what she said, her eyes lit up instantly. She quickly headed inside the convenience store and led Laura outside. “Laura, come with me. There’s a good show to watch.”Laura felt puzzled, but since Emily was dragging her outside, she had no choice but to follow Emily out.When Zack heard the woman’s voice, he froze. He turned around with a look of disbelief on his face. That was when he saw his wife walking angrily towards him from a short distance away.This caused Zack’s face to turn pale and he quickly took back his hand which was wrapped around Jasmine’s waist.“Honey, what brings you here?”“What brings me here? If I hadn’t come here, I wouldn’t have found out that you’re seeing a mistress behind my back!”Zack’s wife was quite chubby, strong and had a tall figure. She walked up to Jasmine with a furious expression on her face. She then slapped Jasmine in the face. “You whore! You’re still young but all you do is seduce men! Let me teach yo
"Zack, help me! Please help me!" Jasmine cried out loud.Listening to Jasmine's coquettish voice, Zack's wife became even more infuriated and she began hitting Jasmine even harder."Zack, I'm pregnant with your child? Are you just going to stand there and do nothing as this bitch hits me?" Jasmine screamed at the top of her voice.Zack immediately widened his eyes in shock. He then pulled Jasmine into his arms without any hesitation."Stop! Stop right there!" Zack pushed his wife away.Zack and his wife were married for over 10 years. Due to the fact that his wife was barren, the two of them never had a child.Zack was getting old and had always wanted a child.His wife was dumbfounded and looked at what was happening with disbelief.Jasmine leaned in Zack's arms and was sobbing. She kept on saying that her stomach ached and Zack was showing concerns for her.Zack's wife looked as if she couldn't recover from what she was looking at. She was in a daze for a whole minute before
Laura had no idea how much Chris was paid every month."He's a special assistant. I haven't asked about his wage."'A special assistant? That means he's just a handyman then,' thought Emily.With that thought in mind, Emily looked away.However, thinking of what just happened, Emily couldn't help but sigh. "How ridiculous."She turned around and looked at Laura. There was a meaningful smile on her face. "I've always hated people who deliberately seduce married men. One can say that I have OCD in relationships. If something or someone belongs to me then that something or someone can only belong to me. I won't let anyone who tried to take that something or someone away from me off."As soon as she said those words, Emily didn't wait for Laura to reply and continued, "Alright, Laura. I've got to go. I'm going to find Liam. He's probably missing me now.""Okay." Laura nodded. After seeing Emily off, she also returned to the convenience store.Chris was walking towards the elevator
As soon as the blonde guy at the front, Bradley, gave the order, the group of men chased after Chris.The alleyway was dark, but it was a dead end. Bradley furrowed his brows. He was just about to turn on the flashlight on his phone, when a white and slender hand patted him on the shoulder."Are you looking for me?" A deep voice sounded behind him.Bradley was shocked. He then quickly realized what was going on and swung the bat in his hand towards Chris."Get him!"Bradley was fast, but Chris was faster.As the successor of the richest family in Empfield, Chris had to be very physically strong. Otherwise, he wouldn't have beaten Luke up so badly.Bradley had brought quite a lot of men this time. Chris's bodyguards were sent back. He was left facing all of these men alone. At first, he could get the upper hand, but as time passed, he could only make sure he wouldn't lose the fight. However, it wasn't a big problem for Chris to escape this dangerous situation.Just when Chris wa
Chris squinted his eyes when he heard what Bradley said.Nicholas Walker was Laura's father."It really doesn't have anything to do with me. He said that you've beaten his son up and he wanted revenge.""Chris, you've beaten his son up? Who is this guy? When did this happen?" Harry was puzzled, but his words still showed that he was on Chris's side. "My brother must have beaten his son up because his son had done something wrong and needed to be taught a lesson."Harry felt that Chris was a well-known entrepreneur in Empfield. A lot of people wanted Chris to teach them a lesson, but Chris ignored all of them."He's Laura's father," Chris said indifferently."Huh?" Harry was dumbfounded. "What the hell's going on?"This wasn't really the right time to talk about this. Chris looked at the time. It was getting late. It was already almost 11 o'clock at night. If he went home any later, he would probably wake her up."Take them to the police station. Take care of this for me.""Oka
Chris had no intention of telling Laura what happened tonight. He knew she would be very upset if he told her.On the morning of the next day. Laura and Chris headed off to work as usual.However, not long after the convenience store was opened, a familiar figure walked in from the outside.Laura saw it was Madam Jacobs and her eyes lit up. She then asked in surprise, "Madam Jacobs, what brings you here?"Madam Jacobs had quite a lot of gifts in her hand. Laura walked over and took the bags in Madam Jacobs' hands to prevent her from being too tired. She then placed the bags on one side. "Madam Jacobs, what are all these? Why didn't you tell me you were coming? Chris and I could go pick you up.""There's no need. The neighbor's child was coming nearby so I got a lift in his car." Madam Jacobs had a big smile on her face. The fact was that she asked the driver to drive her there."There were quite a lot of supplements at home and I can't finish all of them by myself. I brought them
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?" Laura turned to look
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. That was because drugging Chris wasn't something appropriate
