2022-01-11 20:32:44Mr. Lynch hung up the phone and went back to Nicko. Then he took a deep breath and rubbed his face.
“I’m sorry Mr. Nicko, I just got a call,” Mr Lynch said politely.
Nicko nodded. He already knew what was going on. He had heard Mr. Lynch mention Mr. Brenan’s name. He must have made a hard choice. Made him have to fire Steve if he wanted to continue working with Mr Lloyd.
“Is there any problem, sir?” Nicko asked, pretending not to understand.
Feeling that he was getting attention, the middle-aged man immediately used this opportunity to lobby Nicko, who was close to Mr. Lloyd. It’s a tough choice this time.
It was hard to fire Steve, because he had excellent skills, but refusing to work with Lloyd was foolish and disastrous.
“Um, well sir, I just got a call from Mr. B

Catherine and Damian were also there. Of course, neither of them wanted to lose the opportunity by taking advantage of Sara’s presence.The woman who was like Josephine was standing on her hips and glancing at Nicko, who came along with a woman with a slender yet elegant body. She showed a triumphant smile and a mocking look.“Who did you come with, Nicko? You said you would be loyal to my sister. In fact, you really dared to bring another woman here.

Mr. Lynch slapped his hands against the desk. The man bit his lower lip as he breathed up and down. I don’t know how many curses he has issued before.Something unexpected he just found by accident from his cell phone. It turns out that the application that was downloaded by Nicko has not been deleted and he hasn’t even left the application.Steve actually used the application that was previously used to check his wife’s cellphone and find out what happened. Of course, this is because of the cell phone case that was found by Steve.It disappointed his initial intention to throw the case away because he, with Nicko’s refusal to help him talk to Mr Lloyd, turned out to be a disaster. Instead, he gets a harsh reality as betrayal from the person he has been glorifying. Someone who earns his trust.“I didn’t think it turned

I know everything already!” Catherine accused.Sara just chuckled, then looked away from Catherine.

Especially Catherine, her white face turned reddish, she looked flustered and trying to hide something.The woman who looked like Josephine looked up for a moment, then looked down again. She did not dare to show her face to anyone, including Nicko.“Oh, I’m confused about how to answer. Surely the questions asked will shock me,” Catherine thought.Unlike Nicko, even though he was surprised, he still tried to calm down. He releases Catherine’s wrist without looking awkward at all. His skin didn’t turn red like his sister-in-law, who was caught doing something wrong.“I ... umm I mean he ... he has tried to be rude to me,” Catherine, who had found a solution to the problem she was experiencing now, said.

"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?

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.

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.

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

He stood holding out his hand and blocking her from leaving. "Where are you going? Immediately take responsibility for what you have done to us! Give us our money back!”Some who had bought the drug also helped Mr Austin. They all seemed to surround him.“Quickly give us our money back!” cried the people shouting angrily.Andrew Young actually shook his head and tried to refuse, "No...no, you already know that if the items that have been purchased cannot be returned."But the people didn't want to understand and said to him loudly, “No you can't, this money has to be returned because you have committed fraud. Hurry back now or we will force you to take responsibility!” said Mr. Austin, pointing at him

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. Often we have to eat fast food to save time. Don't you all realize the consequences of our old habits? Gradually everything becomes a disease that accumulates and paralyzes the cells in our body.
