Chapter 241 A Gift

In the evening, Joey got to the hotel that Hanson had chosen. Just as she got out of the car, she saw Kenneth waving to her at the hotel entrance.She walked over with a faint smile on her face. "It was Hanson who planned this gathering. Why are you here too?"Kenneth had been helping her behind the scenes recently, so she actually wanted to personally thank him. "What? I'm not welcome?" Kenneth asked intentionally."I didn't arrange this. How could I mind your presence?" Joey said as she walked into the hotel.Kenneth suddenly called out, "Joey."Joey stopped and turned to look at him. There was a hint of confusion on her cool face. She asked, "What's the matter?" "Here's a gift for you." Kenneth took out a box and handed it to Joey.Joey's gaze fell on the velvet box. She asked softly, "What is it?" "Take a look. It's a bracelet." Kenneth opened the box and presented the gift to Joey.He nervously raised his hand to touch his nose and quickly said, "I had Hanson carve th

Chapter 242 Don't Date Him

Joey squirmed under Zachary's intense scrutiny, but she quickly wondered why she should feel uneasy.They were already divorced. How dare he stare at her openly and publicly like this?Joey redirected her gaze from Kent to Zachary. With a stern voice, she asked, "Yes, Mr. Gray?"Hanson had yet to arrive, and Kenneth didn't want to speak out of turn. Thinking that Joey knew how to handle matters with Zachary, Kenneth remained quiet and perused the menu.Zachary set his eyes on Joey and replied calmly, "Enjoy your meal, Ms. Linton."Then, Zachary left.Kent was shocked. Was that all? He was expecting a strongly worded speech from Zachary.Joey, too, was bewildered. She gawked as Zachary approached the table by the corner."What would you like to order?"Kenneth's question anchored Joey back to reality. She withdrew her gaze on Zachary and scanned the menu. After placing her order, she took out her phone and began scrolling.Sitting across Joey, Kenneth could tell that she was d

Joey glared at Zachary and scowled. "Who wants your life anyway? I don't want anything from you. Let go of me!"But Zachary wouldn't release Joey. Liquid courage had emboldened him.As the physical altercation broke out, Joey slipped on her high heels and fell into Zachary's arms. Zachary pulled Joey by her waist and leaned in, planting his lips on Joey's.It was a tender and affectionate kiss.Joey shuddered, nearly succumbing to the sensation. Her rationality returned and she pushed Zachary away."We're divorced. You don't get to decide who can give me presents. And who do you think you are? You have no right to kiss me."Zachary sobered up, his grip relaxed.Joey immediately broke free and shoved Zachary away. "Stay away from me!"Zachary wouldn't budge.

She quickly looked away and hid her hands behind her.Seeing Joey's defensive action, Z

Chapter 244 Throw The Bouquets Away

"I'm not saying that he harbors any creepy thoughts about you. I just think that Kenneth was distraught last night."Was he like this when you came? It weirded me out." Selena mulled as she rubbed her chin.Joey replayed the scene in her mind and everything seemed to corroborate Selena's claim. Kenneth was distraught after he picked up a call. Did Hanson's departure bother Kenneth a lot?"Why does it bother you that he was distraught?" said Joey with a grin as she leafed through the contracts."It was supposed to be a friendly dinner, but it … We were celebrating Emmen's success. I thought it would be fun and joyous."Selena then pouted, "Then those dudes came and just glared at each other. It ruined the mood for everyone.""Perhaps something happened to his family? I know Hanson quite well. To make a hasty return like that means that whatever happened in Imperia must be more important than our success."Joey couldn't help but think about the Fulhams' missing child.Originally,

Chapter 245 Defending Joey

"Hanson saved me. I am grateful for him, but I also worry that …" Monica grabbed Joey's hands. She was fraught with worry."Don't worry, Grandma. What's real can never be fake, and what's fake can never be real," consoled Joey.A myriad of emotions briefly flashed in Monica's eyes, until love remained. "You must be hungry, Joey. Let me cook something for you.""Okay." Joey nodded.Monica's mood changed so swiftly. For a moment, Joey thought she was seeing things.…Zachary received a call from the police as soon as he returned home.

Chapter 246 Business Talk

As soon as Joey sat down, Selena showed her the thematic portfolio. Joey took her time to peruse it.Truth be told, traditional clothing had now become a cliché. It was an overused theme in films or video games. However, add in a bit of innovation and it could nonetheless retain attention.Joey had a rough idea on her mind and she turned to the chubby man. "May I have your name, sir?"A young, handsome man with monolids sitting next to the chubby man stood up.He smiled, brandishing his rows of white teeth, and spoke with an accent from Minville, "Heya! I am the owner of the TV channel. Call me Melvin Fuller."You're so young yet already so successful. That's impressive!"Samuel chortled and laughed at Joey's innocent mistake. "Mr. Fuller hardly comes to Eldeville. It's normal that you wouldn't recognize him, Joey."Joey blushed and cleared her throat. "Sorry. Hi, Mr. Fuller."Thanks to the hilarious hiccup, the atmosphere in the room eased."So, what kind of theme will get th

Chapter 247 Best Man For Her

Joey looked at Samuel. "You know his show will flop, right? I used The Chaotic Era to save him some views. His original idea would have failed horribly.""I know. Thanks a lot," uttered Samuel gratefully. He then probed, "Joey, are we still … friends?""Of course. I'm a proud woman. I will definitely help you if you need me," said Joey with a chuckle.After all, Joey did owe Samuel a favor. She would go beyond her means to repay Samuel.Besides, Samuel personally came to her for help. Suffice it to say, Melvin must be an important client for Samuel too.Melvin then decided to stay in Eldevill for a week before returning. As the host, Joey let her male colleagues take Malvin on a city tour.On this particular day, Joey's assistant barged in while Joey was working.The assistant exclaimed excitedly, "Mr. Fuller is so nice. He asked his assistant, John, to send us crates of seafood—seafood that are flown here after they were caught this morning!"While Eldeville was famous for its

Chapter 248 Don't Overstay Your Welcome

Zachary continued his meal silently, yet his presence commanded the attention of every female at the scene.Even the waitresses, who underwent vigorous training to work in high-end hotels, blushed upon serving Zachary.Yvonne had looked into Zachary too when she tried to know more about Joey.There weren't a lot of videos of him online, but Zachary looked so handsome in those videos. So handsome that Yvonne thought his face was photoshopped.However, Zachary was even more handsome in person.Sensing Yvonne's gaze, he lifted his head and met her gaze. Yvonne immediately lowered her head. She bit her lips and batted her eyelashes, attempting to present her most beautiful self to Zachary.The corner of Zachary's lips curled into a mirthless smile.

Chapter 249 Another Coincidence

Joey listened quietly as Selena rambled. There was a faint smile on her face. Selena's concern caused warmth to bubble up in her chest."Oh yeah, didn't the bracelet Kenneth gave you have a GPS tracker? Did he mention how to connect it to your phone?" After she said that, she urged Joey once more, "Text him to ask about it."Now, she wished she could arm Joey with all that benefitted her and protect her well. It would let others know that she was not to be messed with!Speaking of the bracelet, Joey realized that although Kenneth had told her about the bracelet's function, he did not tell her whose phone the bracelet would connect to. She had forgotten about it at that moment.However, she did not wish to ask him about it right now.Kenneth and Hanson did not contact her after they returned to the capital, which illustrated the problem."There's no need to do so. It's able to connect. Besides, this bracelet has an important function and it must be used in emergencies."Moreove

Chapter 250 Yvonne Ziegler

Upon hearing that, Melvin's smile remained."That won't do. Ms. Linton's my guest and someone my friend sent. I need to escort her to the hotel safely."Joey thought he would agree. She had not expected him to reject Zachary."Mr. Gray, let's each take our separate rides," she suggested.She did not wish to share a ride with him. Regardless of why he was there, it had nothing to do with her.Kent smiled and slung his arm over Melvin's shoulders. His eyes curved into a mesmerizing smile.He asked, "What? Are you worried that Zachary, a prominent person, would mistreat her?"Melvin became unexpectedly serious. "Man, you've got it wrong. The both of you knowing her is one thing, but me taking care of my guest is another matter entirely." "Mr. Fuller, let's get in the car," said Joey.She did not wish to interact with them too much. After saying that, she walked to a car and opened the door. She was the first to sit inside."Mr. Gray, may we meet again." Melvin pulled away from
