Chapter 31 Arrangements For Luke

"It's not that simple, Mrs. Walker. It's not that easy to get into the Jacobs Group. I would need some time to make the arrangements, but you don't have to worry, I'll make sure everything is arranged before I go on maternity leave. I'll definitely arrange a position for Luke in the Jacobs Group.""Okay, that's good to hear." Shona quickly nodded in response. " You're so capable, Jessica. The best would be for Luke to take your place in the company. That way, when you return after you give birth to the child, he can give the position back to you and won't give others any chances to take your place."The thought of having two family members in the Jacobs Group made Shona feel overjoyed.She felt that she would be very proud after telling such news to others and they would all envy her.Chris took a call. He seemed to have something to attend to and would need to leave early.Laura nodded in agreement.Looking at Chris's receding figure, Shona pouted her lips.Laura helped tidy up

Chapter 32 What is He Hiding?

Seeing that Laura wasn't back yet, Jessica continued, "Mrs. Walker, the houses in this community are not only expensive, they're really close to a school as well. The price of such houses will only rise in the future. If Luke and my child will be able..."Before Jessica finished speaking, Shona already knew what she was thinking."Mom, Jessica, take a seat. Here's some water." Laura passed the cups to Shona and Jessica.Jessica took the cup and smiled sweetly. "Thank you, Laura."Shona didn't take the cup, neither did she sit down. She walked around the house and took a look at the kitchen and bathroom. She then went to take a look at Laura's room. However, when she reached the room where the door was tightly shut, Laura stopped her. "Mom, you can't go into that room.""Why?" Shona felt puzzled and unsatisfied. "What are you hiding in this room? I'm your mom and even I can't take a look?""It's not that, Mom. That room belongs to Chris. He's kind of a neat freak and doesn't like

Chapter 33 Switching Houses

Laura frowned. The question made her feel exceptionally awkward. "The house was bought by him, why?""Did he add your name to the property ownership certificate?" Shona finally remembered what Jessica had said. "I've had a look around, this house is quite close to a school. Since you're not pregnant at the moment and this house is quite small, you can have a talk with Chr... your husband and convince him to switch houses with Luke. Alright? Luke's house is way bigger than this one. It's also brand new. If it weren't for the benefit of Jessica's baby, I wouldn't have allowed you to switch houses with Luke."Shona's words made it sound as if Laura had taken advantage of her.Laura's eyes became cold. Anger arose from deep down. 'How could she do something so shameless?"Laura forced herself to remain calm. "My name isn't on the property ownership certificate, neither will I switch houses with Luke!""You not only didn't ask for any bride price, you also didn't ask for your name to b

Chapter 34 There's No Jessica

'What the hell's going on?' wondered Laura.Shona had mentioned multiple times that Jessica was a senior executive at the Jacobs Group. She even mentioned it during lunch today."I'm not sure," said Chris. "There's no called Jessica Holland in the company's system. I've never seen her in the company either."There was only one possibility for this, Jessica was lying.Laura obviously trusted Chris. After all, he was the CEO's special assistant. Therefore, it was normal for him to be able to find out who worked in the company.All she didn't know was why Jessica had to lie.Laura became deep in thought.She and Shona weren't on good terms, but they were still a family after all. Shona was her mother, she felt that she needed to find a chance to tell Shona the truth.However, whether Shona believed her or not was none of her business.In the evening, Laura took Chris out for some barbecue.There was a food street in Empfield and Laura would often come to one of the barbecue stor

Chapter 35 Family

Laura saw that Chris had already paid the bill and was putting his phone away."I came with my husband." Laura introduced Chris to Liam. "Chris, this is a senior at university.""You're married?" A look of disbelief appeared on Liam's face. His hands on either side of him were trembling.Laura nodded.Chris stood beside Laura. He sized Liam up and down indifferently."I do apologize." Liam smiled after locking gazes with Chris. He then reached out a hand.Chris reached out a hand as well and shook hands with Liam. However, Chris quickly pulled his hand back after a brief handshake and placed his hand into his pocket indifferently."Liam, we've just finished dinner and were about to leave. Hope you enjoy your meal," said Laura."Okay." Liam nodded, but when he looked at Laura and Chris's receding figures, his eyes darkened.Laura and Chris came on the electric scooter, so they were now headed towards the car park.On the way there, Chris suddenly said, "Did he have a crush on

Chapter 36 She's Lying

After hearing Shona's words, Linda looked at Shona with a frown. "What are you talking about?""A house switch. Mom, I'd suggest you convince Laura about this. The house she lives in at the moment is near a school, but it's quite small. I'm planning on getting Luke and Laura to switch houses. It'll be more convenient for Jessica's child to go to school in the future. Besides, Luke's house is not only bigger, it's also newer. Laura's taking an advantage in this matter, but she wouldn't agree." Shona sounded as if Laura didn't understand what she was trying to do.Linda then said in a disdainful voice, "Are you talking about the house that Chris and Laura are living in right now? Why should they switch houses with Luke? I know you too well to let Laura take advantage of anything."Linda's words made Shona feel shameful, especially when there were other elders in the room. They all loved gossip and all looked at Shona.Shona pouted her lips. "Alright then, let's forget about switching

Chapter 37 Less Bride Price

"Don't think I don't know what they're trying to do. They just wanted to be cheap! They want to use the child against me so that they can reduce the amount of bride price they give me!"The man squinted his eyes. He reached out a hand and rubbed Jessica's belly.Jessica looked at the man shyly. "Hey, you are rubbing my belly in public you know. However, you have no idea how happy the people of the Walker family were when I told them that my baby was a boy. It's such a joke. However, what they didn't expect is that the child in my womb is a boy, but it doesn't belong to Luke..."With that said, the man beside Jessica smiled as well. He kissed Jessica's forehead and said, "You can stay with them for now, Jessica.""Do you really want me to marry Luke whilst being pregnant with your child?""Of course, not. However, you know what I'm going through right now. I don't want you and our child to suffer with me. Therefore, I'd rather give you over to Luke and suffer by myself. I don't wan

Chapter 38 Rejected

Laura felt a little puzzled. 'What's going on? Why did he reject my friend request? Did Chris accidentally click on the wrong button?'Laura wanted to try one more time, but this time she received the notification that the account didn't exist.She was rendered speechless.She had been able to find the account just moments ago, but now she couldn't find the account anymore. There was only one possibility, Chris had changed his settings to his account so that others couldn't find him using his phone number.This made Laura a little frustrated.What was the meaning of this?Laura gave Chris a call."Hello, what is it?"Chris's calm voice sounded on the other end of the line. This made Laura even more unhappy, but Laura still kept her cool. "Mr. Jacobs, why did you reject my friend request? I've chosen the Christmas decorations and wanted to send them to you to have a look."Chris was taken aback at first and then replied subconsciously, "When did you try to add me?"Laura frown

Chapter 39 Going Along

"I'm serious. I'm not joking around," said Laura."I'm not joking around. I'm being very serious."Madam Jacobs really liked Laura. Otherwise, she wouldn't have wanted Chris and Laura to be together.Laura felt a little helpless. She knew that she wouldn't get anything from Chris, so she decided to deal with things as they go along.After hanging up the call, Laura did a search on the internet. What should she take on her first visit to her husband's family?Meanwhile, at the Jacobs family's house.Madam Jacobs was lying casually in the garden and looking at the phone in her hand.She first looked at Laura's Twitter and saw that Laura hadn't posted anything on Twitter for ages. After giving it some thought, she clicked on Laura's chat window and sent a message over."Laura, what are you up to lately?"Madam Jacobs knew that Laura was her granddaughter-in-law and that they were old friends, but Laura didn't.Laura soon typed her reply to Madam Jacobs. "I'm googling something,

"Mr..." The senior executive's lips trembled. Before he could finish, Chris interrupted him.Chris glanced at the price labeled on the snacks. "Five dollars. Let's cut the small talk and pay up."The senior executive nodded subconsciously, paid for the snacks and rushed out of the store.The senior executive still wasn't able to calm down even after he reached his office. When he bumped into Assistant Jacobs, he reached out and grabbed Assistant Jacobs. "Assistant Jacobs, what the hell's going on? I just went to the convenience store downstairs and saw Mr. Jacobs. He's at the counter!"Assistant Jacobs was wondering where Chris had gone. In the end, Chris had gone to help his wife out.His lips twitched. He knew that Chris was still keeping his marriage a secret, so he said, "Well, Mr. Jacobs is trying to experience the life of a working class."The senior executive widened his eyes in shock.
