Chapter 391 Can We Talk?

"What are you doing?"The bowl, still filled with oatmeal, landed in front of Serena. It startled her."I already said that I wasn't talking about you. Everybody is free now. Can't I gossip about a minor celebrity in the entertainment industry? Are you trying to put yourself into the shoes of that Z-list actress, Ms. Johnson?" Rebecca stared at her coldly, and her voice was indifferent. "How dare you speak ill of my friend before me? How dare you mock her? I could have splashed that bowl of oatmeal on your face. You deserve that. Serena, you should be grateful that you started this after I had finished breakfast."Serena couldn't argue with that. Rebecca's cold demeanor left her speechless.She might have been in for a lot more than just a bowl of oatmeal if she had started this conversation while Rebecca was eating.The intense coldness in Rebecca's gaze overwhelmed Serena. She dared not utter a word.She was shocked to her core, and her mind was screaming at her. Rebecca had

You can also rely on Gourmet Haven ...""But, Uncle, I don't need it."Rebecca ruthlessly interrupted him.The truth always hurt the most because it could shatter one's fantasies.She could rely on the Johnsons.

"I ..."Wendy was still confused. It seemed like she hadn't fully processed all the information.Just as she was about to speak, she saw Rebecca walking toward them from the other end of the corridor.

"Wendy, take your time to think about it. Let's go check on Ollie first. I won't force you if you don't want to change your mind.

Chapter 398 Quit the Circle

Penny's voice came from the phone, and it carried a hint of relief."I have an idea. It's only a breach of contract once. If it happens, I'm not sure who will help me pay my loan.""Sam can!"The words slipped from Rebecca's mouth without much thought.Penny guffawed at the statement. She felt embarrassed after laughing. "Does Mr. Johnson know that you've offered him up on a silver platter?"Rebecca clicked her tongue lightly. "I see you're speaking for my brother now, huh? I remember someone used to complain about how heartless a capitalist like him is."Penny coughed lightly. "Things are different now!"Rebecca understood and didn't comment further. "Then, please bring my brother home quickly. Don't worry about your work. I'm sure Sam will be more than happy to settle it for you."Spending exorbitant amounts to poach people from the previous company was ill-intentioned. Now, this idea was out in the open.

Chapter 400 Your Brother and I Are Together

"It's raining. Why are you still standing there? Aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"A gentle male voice came from behind them and interrupted their mood to gossip. It wasn't Sam.Rebecca heard the voice and instinctively glanced to her side. She saw a man in a dark-colored suit holding an umbrella.As Rebecca reacted, the black umbrella covered Rebecca's head. The raindrops fell onto the top of the umbrella and created a soft splattering sound.Rebecca took the umbrella from him but couldn't identify what she was feeling. She took the umbrella as if on autopilot and shielded herself and Penny with it. Her beautiful eyes were still on Maxwell. She was staring blankly at him."W-Why are you here?""Why? Are you not happy to see me here, Becca?"Maxwell stood at the foot of the step. His gaze was at eye level with hers.
