Chapter 101 Paige Blocks Pierre

Pierre texted, [I’m fine.]Shelly stared at Pierre’s brief reply with a frown. Something was off with Pierre. That was not Pierre’s usual behavior toward her. Shelly wrote back, [Oh.]She responded with indifference, too. Shelly had never taken the initiative with Pierre. While he had strong feelings for her and was actively pursuing her, she did not feel the same way about him. She only asked him how he was doing out of kindness, and that was the extent of it. Such were men. Men would not get the thrill of the chase if the women responded too eagerly. When women played hard to get, men saw it as a challenge to win the women’s hearts. Pierre stopped responding to Shelly. He even considered blocking Shelly and never contacting her again. However, even though he was disappointed with Shelly, she was still the woman he loved and pursued for many years. He could not possibly move on from her immediately. Pierre could not bring himself to block her. He was in a dilemma.

Chapter 102 Birds of a Feather

Paige hoped Luna would not invest her feelings in Pierre. Surprised, Luna asked, “Why do you say so, Paige? Did Pierre do something?” Based on her observation of Paige, Paige was a peace-loving person who did not talk behind people’s backs. For Paige to say that about Pierre, he must have done something to upset her.“No.” Paige shook her head and replied, “He didn’t do anything to me. It’s just that he likes Shelly.” Luna fell silent. Hiding the sadness behind her eyes, she murmured, “I know.” Paige looked at Luna and said, “You’re kind and beautiful, Luna. As the heiress of the Jewells, you have the pick of all the men in Hevensford. Happiness is the most important thing in the world, Luna. If loving somebody brings you hurt, pain, tears, and bitterness, that is not love. Love is beautiful.” Luna stared at Paige in silence. No one had ever said that to her. Was love beautiful? What about her love story? She had not experienced the joys of love. When she realized she

Chapter 103 Getting Nails Done on Day 1

Chris had multiple meetings a day, many tasks to complete, and lots of social engagements to attend. As expected, money did not grow on trees. Working was a lot harder than going to school. Once the secretaries and assistants had finished reporting, Chris said, “This is Paige, my wife. She will be interning here for the summer holidays. Sandra Kelly, she'll be in your care.” Sandra nodded respectfully. “Sure.” Chris stopped talking, so their business was done there. The assistants and secretaries left his office. “Should I go too?” Paige asked Chris. Chris nodded. “Go on.” Paige went out. “Mrs. Jewell,” Sandra called Paige. Paige blushed and replied awkwardly, “Just call me Paige.” Mrs. Jewell just did not sound right to Paige. Sandra looked at Paige in surprise. She did not dare to address Paige by name because Chris was a stern CCO. God knew what Chris would do if he were to find out she was on a first-name basis with Paige. “Madam, please follow me,” Sand

Chapter 104 Red for the Queen

No words could describe the air in the room. Unsure of Chris’s intent, Gloria said, “It will take a moment. I have not applied diamond studs to the manicure yet.”Chris had no words. He told Paige, “Come to the office after you’ve had your nails done.” Paige replied, “Oh.” Chris walked away. Gloria looked at Paige, and Paige met her gaze. “Do we carry on, madam?” Gloria asked. Chris seemed like he could not wait. Paige glanced at her hands and said, “Carry on.” She had some of her fingers painted. It was strange to leave out the rest. “Okay.” Gloria went on to do Paige’s nails. “Madam, are you scared of Mr. Jewell?” While painting Paige’s nails, Gloria asked. Gloria believed Paige was scared. Sandra and Margaret pricked their ears up for Paige’s answer. Taken aback, Paige looked at Gloria and responded, “Honestly speaking, I am.” Gloria stared at Paige with a smile and commented, “We’re scared, too.” Paige was speechless. She looked at Gloria in shock

Chapter 105 Chris and Gloria Are Out

Paige wondered if she got the wrong idea about Chris. She sat in bed, cracking her head for answers. Just then, the door opened. Startled, Paige jolted to her feet from the bed. Chris raised his brow as Paige looked frightened. “Did I scare you?” Paige blushed. “No.” “What were you doing in here? You were away for a long time,” Chris asked. Paige dared not say she was searching for clues left behind by other women in the room. She lied, “I was in the washroom.” Chris raised a brow. “That long?” She had been in there for at least half an hour. “Constipation?” Chris asked. Paige turned red and looked at Chris, whispering, “No.” Chris nodded and asked, “What do you want to have for lunch?” Still blushing, Paige inquired, “Are we going out to eat?” Chris replied, “I’m fine if you want to dine out.” Paige blinked. “Is there a cafeteria?” “Yes.” Chris nodded. He asked, “Do you want to go to the cafeteria?” Paige gave it a thought before shaking her head. “

Chapter 106 Conquer the Workplace and Women

Paige nodded and went with Chris. She kept close to Chris, carefully sniffing him. Having spent the day with Gloria, Paige had smelled the scent on her. Gloria wore a strong perfume. Paige carefully took a whiff. Chris smelled of laundry detergent, which her clothes also smelled like. It was the brand the Jewells used for laundry. There was also a faint scent mixed with the smell of laundry. She found the scent familiar, and it did not belong to Gloria. Gloria carried a strong perfume, but the smell on Chris was faint. Paige could not put her finger on the scent. However, it definitely was not Gloria’s. Paige sighed in relief to herself. He did not have Gloria’s scent on him. Paige wondered if she should take it that Chris was away for work with Gloria that afternoon instead of going to the hotel, as she presumed. However, who could the scent belong to if not Gloria’s?Chris should not smell of anything other than laundry detergent. After all, he did not use cologne.

Chapter 107 Cute

“You don’t believe me?” Chris asked as Paige looked skeptical. Paige shook her head. “I don’t.” Chris curled his lips at Paige and said, “You’ll believe me.” Then, he turned around and left. Paige looked at Chris’ back in confusion. What was that supposed to mean? How would she believe him? Paige could not understand what he was trying to say. Was she supposed to verify with other men if they wanted to conquer their woman in their office? She was not a psycho. There was no way she would approach other men to ask such an absurd question for no reason. God knew what those men would think of her if she did.Seeing that Chris was stepping into the elevator, Paige picked up the pace and joined him. There was no one else in the elevator. The elevator exclusive for high-management executives was technically just for the Jewells. Now, Chris and Paige were the only ones in the elevator. Chris stared at Paige. Not knowing what to say, she gave Chris a confused look.

Chapter 108 Hurry Up and Bear a Son

Paige asked curiously, “How much is that?” Chris said, “After taxes and pension contributions, it’s five thousand bucks.” Paige had no words. That was still a pretty good deal. Although 5,000 dollars was not much to Paige, she had a job, even if it was just making coffee. Making coffee was a job, too. Now that she was on the work task force, she should get paid for her time and effort. Seeing that Paige was silent, Chris raised his brow. “What’s wrong? Is the amount too little for you?” Surprised at first, Paige then shook her head. “No.” Truth be told, if her day-to-day tasks at work were like today, she would feel like she did not deserve the 5,000 dollars. All she did today was brew Chris a cup of coffee.She would earn 5,000 dollars a month after taxes for making a cup of coffee a day. Anybody would fight tooth and nail for this job. As Paige had no more questions, Chris held Paige and pressed her onto the mattress. Paige blinked and stared at Chris in shock.

Chapter 109 Men Are Easy to Please

Instead of pursuing the question further, Gloria said, “If there are any problems with Mr. Jewell’s health, you should convince him to see a doctor. He shouldn’t be embarrassed to talk about his issues with the doctor. He’s young, strong, and has a good immune system. I’m sure he will be cured of any illness.” Blushing harder, Paige whispered, “He doesn’t have any health issues.” Gloria said, “None?” Paige nodded with a red face. “Yeah.” Gloria sighed in relief. That scared her. She honestly thought Chris had health problems. “Um… You can do it, madam. May you conceive a child soon,” Gloria said while glancing at Paige’s belly. Paige had no words. She observed the sincere look on Gloria’s face. It did not seem like Gloria was lying to her. Gloria genuinely hoped she could be pregnant as soon as possible. Paige wondered if she had the wrong idea about Gloria and Chris. Gloria wanted to carry on the conversation when the phone rang. She glanced at the phone before

Chapter 110 You’re A Goof

Paige suspected Gloria sweet-talked Chris that way.“I don’t think he’s angry,” Paige said against her conscience.Gloria was speechless. She looked at Paige and wondered if Paige was for real. It was clear that Chris was furious. Yet, Paige believed he was not. Gloria had reason to think that Paige was a goof. “I think Mr. Jewell is angry,” Gloria commented. Meeting Gloria’s gaze, Paige said, “I don’t think he is. If you think he is, why don’t you butter him up?” Gloria was lost for words. She looked at Paige, dumbfounded. Butter Mr. Jewells up? As if she had the guts. Besides, who was she to sweeten Chris up? Gloria imagined herself tugging Chris’ arm and simpering, “Don’t be mad, Mr. Jewell. I love you the most. Don’t be mad. Here’s a kiss. You shouldn’t be mad after we kiss.” The thought of it just made Gloria shudder. She could not do it. “There’s no point in me appeasing him. I’m not anybody to him. Besides, Mr. Jewell isn’t angry with me,” Gloria
