Chapter 31 Ruthless and Seasoned

"Damn, did he have to make such a big fuss?""Isn't he poisoned? But he's yelling so loudly."The Traffic Light Trio and the Waltons stood at the door fuming. Lana frowned. She felt like there was something fishy about it. But she still knocked on the door openly and led the employees in. "Hi, I'm the restaurant's owner. This is a small gift for you," Lana said as she placed a fruit basket on his nightstand. The man looked like he was in his thirties. He had a surprised look on his chubby face due to Lana's exceptional beauty. But he quickly came to his senses. He pointed at Lana and yelled, "Why are you here? I almost died in your restaurant. How dare you show yourselves here. Are you here to see if I'm dead yet?"The reporters didn't miss a beat. They began to interview Lana frantically. "Miss, I heard that the customer got food poisoning because your kitchen is filthy and disorganized. Do you have any comments?""Someone reported that the customer got food poisoning b

Chapter 32 Playboy

Lana thought Eric's tone with her was too intimate. It was like he was talking with his girlfriend. The situation was getting weirder by the second. But she maintained a polite but distant attitude. "Thanks, Mr. Wheeler. I can deal with it by myself."Eric was close with Jennifer. Lana didn't want to associate with him too closely. Also, the Wheelers were very influential in Gilsbury. She didn't want to risk offending someone like him."That's too bad." Eric felt a little powerless at Lana's refusal. "But I promise I'll try my best to help you whenever you need me."Lana was rendered speechless. Eric's words were too intimate. Lana couldn't help but picture him as a playboy. Nadia started to worry when she noticed Lana's unusual attitude on the phone. "Who is it?""Eric Wheeler."Nadia became upset when she heard the name. "Why is he calling you? Is he planning to avenge Jennifer?"While still in the Clark household, Nadia heard Sarah discussing marrying Jeniffer to Eric.

Chapter 33 Your Eyes

Carol nodded. "The Simses are backed by the Kanes. That's the reason behind their explosive growth. "Mr. Sims Senior is a renowned figure in the world of literature. He also made significant contributions to the country when he was younger. Do you still think they made it via stock trading?"Jennifer shook her head, her eyes filled with excitement. "Then I'll go to the banquet." She hesitated right after the words came out of her mouth. "Isn't Mr. Sims Senior rumored to be on his deathbed? Why would the Simses put so much effort into celebrating his birthday?" Jennifer asked. Carol was utterly speechless. Even if George was terminally ill, wouldn't it make sense that an up-and-coming wealthy family would celebrate the birthday of a family elder? What did it have to do with his health?Carol finally understood that Jennifer wasn't at the same intellectual level. She had already given Jennifer an explanation of the situation. Still, Jennifer couldn't grasp the intricacies o

Chapter 34 At the Party

It was night. Lights shone brightly at the gate of Sims Residence. Many people and luxury cars lined up to get in. Lana was shocked by the sight. She had thought George meant a simple dinner and not a party. She didn't prepare much because she thought it would be a simple dinner. She had been all around the place the whole day. Her coat was wrinkled, and she didn't even have makeup on. Lana had hurried over to the Sims Residence with a birthday cake. George wouldn't say anything even if she wore simple clothes, but what about the others? Would they think she was being disrespectful to him?Lana hesitated at the gate. She was planning to go home and freshen herself up before coming back. Suddenly, a clear voice came from behind her, "Ms. Clark, are you also here for Mr. Sims Senior's birthday banquet?"Eric was wearing a blue-colored bespoke suit. He looked handsome and dignified and attracted the gaze of many women.Lana approached him and said, "Nice to see you."Eric st

Chapter 35 Have Some Self-Respect

Lana was unfazed by Jennifer's provocations. "Jennifer, you should settle down. Don't forget what happened at the spa. It would be so awkward for you if you're the one driven out."Lana tried to let Jennifer down gently, but she wasn't having it. She was determined to humiliate Lana this time. A gentle voice came from behind as they were at an impasse. "So you were here, Ms. Clark. I've been looking for you."Eric walked toward them with a glass of wine in his hand and an affectionate expression on his face. Naturally, Jennifer thought Eric was addressing her. She went up to him and tried to wrap her hands around his arm. "Eric, I've been here the whole time," Jennifer said. But unexpectedly, Eric took a step back and evaded her touch. "Please have some self-respect, Ms. Clark. I was looking for Ms. Lana."Jennifer's face paled, and she was shaken. She looked at Eric in disbelief. Eric ignored Jennifer and approached Lana. He said in a playful tone, "Are you okay? I

Chapter 36 Doubt

Lana looked at George intently. "Grandpa Sims, I have enough money. I really don't need more," she pleaded. George was already 82 years old, so his uncle was certainly much older than him.Those who didn't know might even think she was looking for an ancestor instead of a husband. If this got out, others might think that Lana was with George's uncle for his money.George seemed oblivious to her desperation. He replied, "Don't worry. My uncle is also very wealthy. He's much wealthier than my family."Worried that Lana might not agree, George added, "His wealth is thousands, maybe even tens of thousands, times greater than the Wheelers."In fact, Lana was getting ready to make her escape.Right then, Mark suddenly entered. "Dad, your uncle is here," he said, sounding excited. All of a sudden, George, Mark, and Tyler's expressions turned solemn. The trio sat up straight and began to help each other with their attire.Among them, Tyler was the most excited. His chubby face turn

The inevitable had arrived!She knew someone as cunning as Liam wouldn't easily believe what she had said at the Sims Residence.Now she understood why he had suddenly asked her to come to Kane Manor. It turned out that he wanted to question her here!He asked again, "You have no medical skills, so how could you prescribe medication for my grandma?"Liam's imposing presence filled the confined car. It rendered Lana speechless as she sat in the passenger seat.He then added, "Tell me. What's your real purpose for getting close to the Kanes?Liam was certain Lana had some ulterior motive. Otherwise, given her capabilities, she wouldn't have willingly stayed in the Kane family for three whole years.Lana remained silent.

Even if you're a jerk, I'll accept it as long as I can be your girlfriend.""Who is this guy? With looks like that, he should definitely consider becoming a celebrity. Please make your debut, and I'll support you wholeheartedly."Others went to the extreme by posting their own photos in the replies. Some of the photos were quite revealing.

She immediately told Lana everything that had happened.Peter rushed over to Lana and angrily slapped himself a few times, saying, "It's all my fault, Lana. I should have listened to you.
