This blonde haired woman sat uncomfortably. Her heart was beating fast like a deafening sound of hard rock music.

It had been more than fifteen minutes she sat in that position, because the man she had just met had never returned. This makes her anxious about impending failure.

"Looks like what I'm doing will be in vain. Should I leave now?" she talked on her mind. 

However, again she recalled her husband's handsome face with a square jaw. His hazel eyes always gave a comfortable impression when looking at her

"Ah why I don't try sending a message to Nicko, I can kill the boredom with this," She thought, then grabbed the smart phone from her handbag.

"Did you Succeed, Honey?"

It looks that the husband had sent her a message earlier. But it seems she was talking to Mr. Evans at that time.

    Nicko's van pulled into the courtyard of Richmond. He has to drive around so that his wife would not be suspicious. This time no one dared prevent the car entering the building. Every employee knew that the car belonged to Nicholas Lloyd. If they dare to act arbitrarily, then they will deal with the head of the HR division. The incident that just happened to Laura Dean had been recorded in their brains. Of course it would be very embarrassing if this happened to them. A blonde haired woman stepped into the front of the lobby when she saw the white van from the glass door. The car owner had also informed her that his car had arrived. "Darling, come out! I dare not go into the building, my clothes are not appropriate!" he wrote as soon as he arrived at the court. Without any feeling of awkwardness or inferiority complex, the beautiful woman got into the van. No need to wait long, she hugged and kissed the man behind the wheel

She shouted and begging, but they yelled at the the woman with a doll's look."Shut up!" one of them said harshly.Knowing that they yelled at the woman he loved so much, of course made Nicko furious. Their hands that were ready to punch were caught by Nicko's palms.Nobody thought, that the young man whose body size was thinner than them managed to do it. Even Josephine herself kept her mouth shut in amazement. Moreover, the two people were moaning in pain, as if the bones in their wrists were being broken.Nicko's breath sounded so rushed, with such a fast tempo. His skin was red like a sunburn and his eyes were rounded. An expression that Josephine had never seen during their two years of marriage."Don't try to speak harshly to my wife!"

Then she took the folder containing the statement of cooperation with Richmond."The problem of the family business is nothing to worry about anymore. I think tomorrow we can pay for the late salaries of the employees," Josephine said confidently. Josephine's words this time are making Uncle and his family laugh. In their minds how could someone like Josephine do this."You're so cute Jo," Damian commented. "I'm not joking," Josephine replied curtly."Then, How do you think you can pay the salaries of the employees. I guess you know that it's almost a billion?" Grandmother made a comment, pointing at her granddaughter with her cane, this time.Josephine's parents, who initially did not respond, have started to follow suit.

    "So this is your doing?" asked Nicko angrily. This time her face was red and her eyes were staring intently ahead."Ha ha ha why? Does this sound painful to you? It's good that this sounds painful to you. At least this way you will know who you are dealing with, and you can think again about betraying my daughter!”Watson, you! Nicko rage. This time he was really angry that he couldn't say anything else. His hands began to clench tightly and cursed at the man who called him. No one ever thought that Robert Watson, Camilla's father, was involved in kidnapping his wife and child now.“You bastard Watson, what do you want! I warned you that I would never betray your daughter. It was just a silly game in childhood!” Nick replied.“Silly childhood game you say?

    The man Josephine knew folded his arms across his chest and walked over to Josephine. "You wanna know why I'm here? Of course because I want to meet you sweetheart.”Of course, that man was Gerlad Jones, the most selfish man Josephine had ever known.“Aren't you tired of bothering me all the time? Don't you already know that you and I are no longer related?" Josephine replied curtly.Gerald immediately crouched down and leveled his position with Josephine. This time he gently touched Josephine's cheek and disgusted her former lover.Josephine seemed to push away Gerald's hand which kept trying to touch her. The more Josephine dodged the more he liked to tease her.“Your skin is still smooth and soft, only now you are a little different. You seem a bit stocky. Is it possible that you're already pregnant with that jerk's child?” asked Gerald as he whispered in Josephine's ear and started licking it.Josephine shuddered in horror, she almost admitted that she was now pregnant.

Now they also thought of taking a break, after all last night Jo had said that she wanted to share.With the help of Owen and Jacklyn, they spread out a table and put some food boxes there which will be given to anyone who needs them for free. This time it wasn't just Jo who looked so happy, but also Ian, because he hadn't spent time with his adoptive father in a long time.As soon as Nicko finished clearing the table and putting down some food, a middle-aged woman in shabby clothes came up to them. Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he seemed to be a homeless person."Sir, is this given for free?" the woman ask

    At this time Andrew Young really pressed. He really didn't expect that he would suffer such a fate.The person he once underestimated suddenly turned things around in just a few minutes. In the past, he underestimated the Watson family because they had an economy class below him.Especially with Nicko, he had never taken the young man into account at all. Precisely thinks Nicko is like a pest that must be eradicated immediately. But now he is the pest. Even Chuck who became his ally also blamed him.“Chuck, you don't think about me anymore? Don't you remember our previous good relationship?" asked Master Young in a voice that sounded quivering with sorrow.Chuck shook his head and said again, “Didn't you hear what my uncle said earlier? We Watsons absolutely do not welcome a liar. Now you better get out of here!”"Chuck you,—" Andrew no longer continued his words. Instantly his lips were numb and could not say anything else.It was then that Mr. Watson immediately called his housekeep

Now that he heard the news that his youngest son had committed suicide, his life was completely ruined at this point.With unsteady steps, he walked towards the stage again. At that time he had seen the ravaged state. Everything was full of trash and no one was there.He walked unsteadily, but suddenly a waiter came to chase him, "Sorry Mr. Young, this is the bill for tonight's event!"It was then that Andrew Young immediately patted his forehead and muttered that he had almost forgotten the bill he had to pay off. When renting this place, he only paid half of the total banking services ordered by him.Currently, he can still breathe a sigh of relief because, in his account balance, there is still money remaining for the cost of paying off this event. But after that, he didn't know what to do. Not even sure I could buy a plane ticket back to Northern Hill.The only way back to Northern Hi

    Andrew Young was struck by the statement of his former bodyguard. What's more, they actually restrained him and made him no longer able to move and bait the people who were now hunting him.In fact, now that he's really stuck, no one can help him. Wanted to scream and ask Matthew for help but now the young man is not with him anymore. Then, Mr Watson, he should be a man he can rely on. While Chuck is actually an ally of his. But their positions were too far away and it was impossible for her to scream.Even if he had shouted for their help, before Chuck had come here he would have been battered and bruised.Now all he could do was bully his former bodyguard again into protecting him. The bodyguards he had dismissed were a bunch of chubby bums. By giving them even a glimmer of hope, they would definitely move to protect him, no matter how difficult the obstacles he had to face.“Hey you guys, quickly save me! Do your duty as a bodyguard. Don't act stupid and piss me off so you guys tot

    Andrew Young smiled and shook his head, “Of course not sir. That price is a very commensurate price for what you get.”“Humph, you must want to rob us by paying such a large fee! I don't want to buy!” exclaimed one of the visitors.Andrew Young smiled sarcastically and said, “I have no intention of robbing you. I set a fair price as you can see at Mr. Watson's birthday party, and also the changes in me. You all have even touched me and felt the difference. So I think 2.5 billion is really worth it.”The visitors who surrounded him also spoke like a buzzing beetle. After that, he spoke again by giving an explanation of everything. “Don't all of you know that in our youth we spend a lot of time working hard, thinking about many things even makes us forget to eat and lack sleep.
