Howard Group Building.
Ethan finally delivered what Jeff wanted to his office. Looking at the little thing scurrying from side to side on his desk, Jeff took out his cell phone and called Kourtney.
With this little thing around, his Kourtney would be very happy.
The call was just answered, and before he could speak, an impatient, gruff male voice came across the line.
"Who is it?"
Jeff frowned and glanced at the number on the phone to make sure it was Kourtney's.
At that moment, he heard another man's voice on the opposite side of the phone: "This phone doesn't show a name, it's a str
The cold breath, constantly hitting the back of his neck, made Mr. Craig's spine crawl with a layer of goosebumps and his scalp tingle.He had thought of her voice countless times late at night, dreamt of tangling with her, so that only once did he hear who it was.The back of his neck was against a cold object, thin as a cicada blade as if at any time can cut his skin, so he was nervous and did not dare to move."You ......'re not drugged? How come you're okay?"Kourtney said weakly, "Oh, my physique is special, I grew up to be more sensitive to drugs, the general medicine does not have much effect on me."The drug Cassie had given her, altho
Inside the police station, Kourtney followed the police officers to take a statement, while the arrested Jacob and others kept pointing at Kourtney to the police officers to complain."It's her, she's the one who beat me up like that!""Yes, it's her, not just him, but me too, she beat me up!" Jacob pointed to his own face, which was swollen like a steamed bun."And us, we were all beaten by her too!" Others chimed in.A group of older men, pointing to their faces, accused the police officers of how hard Kourtney had hit them.And that police staff, took a look at sitting in front of their colleagues, looks good and tame girl, that girl a look
Seeing Jeff show up in her house, Kourtney's mind went blank for a moment."What are you ...... doing in my house?" Kourtney asked subconsciously.Jeff's gaze moved down her face, crossing her snowy shoulders to continue down.The bath towel just barely blocked her important parts, and the two straight and slender long white legs under the towel were extremely tempting.And his gaze, too, did not conceal his appreciation of her figure in the slightest."It was Miss Brittany, who asked me to take care of you."Kourtney: "..."
On the other end of the phone, Jonny's voice paused for a moment: "This matter, I can explain.""Explain what?" Kourtney sneered, "Are you trying to tell me that you had nothing to do with what Cassie did, that you didn't know anything about it, and that you didn't see her take me out of Elijah's house after I passed out in front of you?"Jonny's voice was silent.Kourtney chuckled, "So, Mr. Elijah, do you think I will believe your explanation?""I am your father, no matter what, she is also my wife, she has been with me for so many years, can't you just let her go for my sake?""Heh, Mr. Elijah, do you think you have any face with me!"Jonny was furious, "Kourtney, do you want to push me to the brink of extinction with no regard for any semblance of father-daughter bonding?""I forced you?" Kourtney asked back with amusement, "Don't think I'm a fool just because I didn't bother with you, Cassie, she would have done it to me without you behind the scenes, she definitely wouldn't dare,
Jeff drove Lucky himself and drove Kourtney to school.When Kourtney got out of the car, the dog wanted to get out of the car and follow Kourtney. Jeff grabbed him and looked at the little sweetheart who kept fluttering under his hand, turned his face to Kourtney, and said, "I will pick you up on time after school this afternoon."Kourtney was going to refuse, but when she saw Lucky struggling under Jeff's hand, she let go, "Okay!"Jeff shook the little sweetheart in his hand, "Lucky, say goodbye to Mommy!""Okay, next, it's time for you to go to work with Daddy!"Kourtney: "......"Daddy ...... Mommy ......When did they become Dog Dad and Dog Mom?Kourtney didn't bother to pay attention to him and turned around and walked toward the campus.Jeff watched Kourtney leave and waited until she was out of sight before driving off.Little Lucky, lying in the back seat of the car, could only watch Kourtney leave the sight of the car through the window.Jeff took a grim look at the little th
In the afternoon after school, Arvin from the next class passed by the school building with his classmates and was about to head for the school entrance when one of Arvin's classmates tapped Leo Howard on the shoulder: "Look, up ahead at three o'clock is Kourtney."The nineteen-year-old boy, the sun in full bloom, in high school uniform, a satchel slung casually over his shoulder, unruly and frivolous."Kourtney? Who is that?"His classmate gave him a blank look, "Arvin, you don't even know who Kourtney is?""Who is she that I should know?""She's the student who transferred in later."
The old Howard family mansion.When Nate arrived at the old mansion, he ran straight into the arms of the middle-aged woman in the living room."Grandma!"Mrs. Howard smiled and touched the short hair on the top of the boy's head in her arms."This is Nate, why didn't you say hello to Grandma when you came home?""I wanted to surprise you, Grandma!"
Howard's house. Bella had called Johnny in the afternoon when school was out. She learned that Johnny had gone to Kourtney and Jeff's for Mom's sake. She heard that Jeff turned out to be Ethan's assistant, the assistant to the president of the Howard Group. Johnny went to them this time to ask Jeff to call Mr. Howard so that their mother could be released on bail as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, Kourtney's boyfriend turned out to be the assistant to the president of the Howard Group. Although he was from Howard Group, he was just an assistant, what future could he have? As long as Mom can be released on bail, Dad can find a way to get her out of jail. Today, Benjamin was very cold to her the whole day. Besides, Benjamin had heard from somewhere that Mr. Williams, whom Cassie had invited to the house yesterday, was an impostor. She always suspected that it was Monica who got out, but Monica denied it. After the driver took her to Elijah's house, she sat in the living room wait
