Chapter 1021 Can You Go On Your Own?

Michelle stared at Jonah. When she saw the odd look on his face, she knew he had seen them, and she immediately felt terrible. Even if things hadn’t worked out between them, the least she could do was to not have public displays of affection in front of him. Obviously, Neil wasn’t going to allow her to do that. Neil had done it on purpose.He was probably very pleased with himself now.When Jonah sat down, his mind wandered from the game to the scene he had witnessed. It dampened his mood, but he knew that he was wrong for feeling this way. Michelle was already married, so what did it matter what she was doing with her husband? What was there for him to be sad about?He couldn’t help it, however. His throat was dry, and his mind was blank. He chugged down a bottle of water, unable to bring himself to focus on the game. He hated himself for being so weak.After kissing Michelle, Neil glanced at Jonah. When he saw how distraught Jonah looked, he suddenly felt a sense of victory.“Yo

Chapter 1022 You’re Married, After All

At this moment, Jonah looked at them. He saw Michelle whispering into Neil’s ear while standing on her tiptoes, looking like she was leaning into his embrace. It made his heart ache even more. He knew it was impossible for anything to happen between him and Michelle anymore, so why did his heart still ache? He should have moved on long ago.Owen told him about the gathering. He wanted to turn it down, but Owen said, “You’re the head coach. Do you think it’d be appropriate for you to skip this? Don’t you need to know what the bosses expect of us?”Jonah was left with no choice. In the end, he agreed to attend.…After Michelle whispered into his ear, Neil thought, ‘It’s good that she doesn’t go, actually. At least she won’t give up the act with a single pained look at Jonah.’ He knew that her mind was filled with Jonah; all he had now was smoke and mirrors, but it was still better than having nothing. Since Michelle insisted that she didn’t want to go, he’d let her be.“Give me you

Chapter 1023 Shake Neil Up A Little

Jonah also saw the wallet. ‘She’s not using the wallet I bought her anymore.’When Caleb was done ordering, he chatted with the basketball team about some things he had observed regarding the strategy. Jonah didn’t expect Caleb to have expertise in this, and they got along swimmingly.The only thing Jonah got out of this gathering was a friend in Caleb. He was relieved to have someone to talk to in order to avoid the awkwardness between himself and Neil.Neil watched them, feeling that the wallet had already completed its mission.“Right. Uncle Caleb, how’s your son doing?” Neil deliberately chose to speak to Caleb.“Roger? He’s gone back to Windmere City. You know, it’s funny that he always used to be ecstatic about going back there–it’s obvious he couldn’t wait to get away from me and his mom. This time, though, he was so reluctant to leave. It’s as if there’s something here in Genovia that he didn’t want to leave behind. Whatever it is, it’s not me and Sheila,” Caleb said.“I

Chapter 1024 Why Aren’t You Calling Me Hubby Anymore?

Neil thought, ‘Mom’s not joking around, and this isn’t some silly speculation. Uncle Caleb was just talking about this earlier.’“Oh? Looks like I’ve married a femme fatale.” He sat down and asked, “What did you guys have for dinner?”“The housekeeper made a few simple dishes. They weren’t anything special.” To Clarissa, the food wasn’t anything special, but to an ordinary person, it was probably equivalent to fine dining.“Was there a cold platter or anything?”“Uh, yeah. What’s wrong with that?” Clarissa looked confused.“Did you eat it?” He looked at Michelle.“Yeah.”He frowned. “You need to stop eating these things from now on! Come on, let’s go home.”In the car, Michelle realized why he had told her to stop eating cold foods—because she was on her period. Who bothered about those things? Obviously Ariana did, which was why he wasn’t allowing Michelle to do so. First, she couldn’t drink tea. Now, she couldn’t eat cold platters.“There’s no hard-and-fast rule about this,

Chapter 1025 Staring at the Painting

When Neil got into bed, he instinctively placed a hand on Michelle’s abdomen. It only made her feel that much warmer.“Are you going to work tomorrow?” Neil rubbed his jaw against the sensitive skin underneath her ear, perhaps because he didn’t have anywhere to expend his sexual energy. It tickled her, and she started to heat up. Before things could get out of hand, she shifted away from him.“We’re having guests at the venue for the first time tomorrow, so I have to be there. Besides, this project concerns you as well,” Michelle said.“Are you putting in so much effort because this has something to do with me?” He knew they couldn’t do anything tonight, so he could only kiss her on the cheek. When he and Ariana were together, he didn’t even need to arouse Ariana. She’d take the initiative to help him out.He didn’t know whether Michelle wasn’t aware of these things, or whether she didn’t want to. No matter what he did to arouse her, she lay there lazily without doing anything. It

Chapter 1026 Water Lilies

Actually, Michelle had a similar painting at home, and it was by Wilson Adkins, one of the country’s most famous painters. Back then, Michelle had still been in university, and Wilson—who was still a nobody at that time—came to give a speech. There weren’t many people who had attended, and most of them had been forced by their lecturers to go. After the speech, she spent two thousand dollars on one of his paintings, which just so happened to be of water lilies. To everyone's surprise, Wilson suddenly shot to fame, and all his paintings became invaluable assets. Of course, Michelle had never considered selling the painting to earn some quick cash, so she kept the painting all these years.The woman continued to stare at the painting, saying, “If only this were the painting by Wilson Adkins.”Michelle looked at her. “Are you collecting his paintings?”“Yes. Here’s my business card.” The woman held out a card.Michelle looked at it—the woman was Celestine Fabbri, the president of Cele

Chapter 1027 Let’s Hear It

But after checking out the quality of D&C’s clothes, Celestine realized that it wouldn’t be a bad thing to buy some. Even if Michelle’s painting turned out to be fake, she wouldn’t lose anything. However, she would add on the remaining 40 million if it were real. Of course, she was only doing it for the sake of “Water Lilies”. If her company could truly establish a long-term collaboration with Wilson, he would be a walking advertisement for them.Any businessman would know this.People who weren’t aware of these things would never realize it, like Amber. She would only continue living in that tiny world of hers.Michelle had learned much from her father. She knew that sometimes, small losses would lead to big wins. She had promised Neil she would close a few more deals for D&C, and she knew Celestine was someone she could trust. Even if Michelle was wrong, all she would lose was the money she’d spent on the painting.She didn’t tell Neil about this. After all, who knew how things w

Chapter 1028 High Maintenance

Calvin gave him the rundown of what happened—that Michelle had used two thousand dollars to score a deal worth 70 million.“Is that so?” Neil didn’t look fazed. “Find a way to make Jonah hear about this.”Calvin was taken aback. “Neil, don’t you think you’ve done enough? They’ve already broken up, yet you keep trying to back him into a corner. Is there any point in doing that?”“I just can’t stand him!” Neil gritted his teeth in anger.He wanted Jonah to know Michelle had used her skills and expertise to earn him so much money and that this wasn’t something Jonah would ever experience.“I’m not going to do anything of the sort. Isn’t Amber pretty close to Owen? I bet she’ll tell him. Once he knows, Jonah will know as well.” Calvin then added, “Also, I think your dad’s probably heard about this by now. Nothing’s going to change the fact that Michelle’s your wife now. Give it a rest, Neil.”“I already have.” After a moment of thought, Neil said, “Ashlyn’s coming back, and I want yo

Chapter 1029 Just Couldn’t Get It

During dinner, Michelle didn’t want everyone to focus on her, so she changed the subject. “Mom, how long will Ashlyn be back?”“Around ten days, I think. She said that her professor’s given her a few days off to rest after the jewelry exhibition. Thanks for doing this, Calvin. You two have always been close, especially since Neil and Ned never wanted to have anything to do with her. They always complained about her being whiny and prissy. You’re the only one who would have her,” Clarissa said.Neil shot Calvin a pointed look.“No, it’s fine.” Calvin wanted to see what the little girl in his memories had grown up to become. The last time he saw her was when she graduated from high school. After that, he was away on business trips or abroad every time she returned home. All he could remember was how she had looked before leaving the country to further her studies—she had worn a white shirt and denim jeans, her hair spilling over her shoulders as she tearfully bid them goodbye.After

Chapter 1030 Only He Didn’t Think She Was Dumb

In the end, Calvin ran out of ideas. Despite that, he didn’t say anything about Ashlyn being dumb. In fact, he had never felt she was dumb. She was pretty, innocent, and had nothing to do with being dumb. It was just that she couldn’t understand math.Calvin sat there silently, trying to think of an easier way to make her understand.Ashlyn looked at him tearfully while holding onto his sleeve, afraid he’d give up on her. “Calvin, teach me, please. I know I’m stupid, but if you teach me slowly, I…I’ll get it eventually.”She sniffled while speaking, and it was hard for one to remain unmoved.Calvin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He rubbed her head gently and said, “I was just thinking of a different way to explain this to you so you could understand.”“Okay. Don’t…don’t give up on me.” Ashlyn wiped her tears and continued working on the problem.All three of the Lawrence family’s kids had gone to public schools, not private ones. Damien placed great importance on their educ
