Jade stayed at home for the whole day. In the evening, her mother pulled her out to buy some groceries.When they got downstairs, they saw Zephaniah’s new car. The driver immediately got out of the car when he identified Jade. “Mister Owens has something to settle these two days, so he will not be able to come over for now. I’ll be in charge of chauffeuring you.” The driver appeared quite professional, but Jade could not help but have some doubts.“Even Gilberto and Gemarya are busy?”The driver was stunned before he raised his head and calmly said, “They’re outstation with Mister Owens.”Jade’s gut instinct told her that something had to be wrong. She did not get into the car. Instead, she walked to the supermarket with her mother, while the driver continued to follow her from behind. Jade’s mother turned back and glanced at him a few times before she blinked. “Zeph is usually careful, but he wouldn’t ask someone to keep following you. Has anything happened? You should call hi

They arrived after two hours. Jade considered for a while before she decided to give Zephaniah a call.Zephaniah was slightly surprised, and he became silent for a while. “I’ll get Gemarya to pick you up from the airport. You can go to the hotel first.”His voice sounded cold.Jade’s heart sank, and she immediately said, “No need. I haven’t visited Seagan City for a long time. I’ll go out and walk around first.”“You should still let Gemarya keep you company. I’ll go to you once I finish my work.” As he spoke, she suddenly heard a female voice on the other end. The woman told him that it was about time.Zephaniah did not respond, but Jade could sense that he had nodded.Jade appeared normal. After she hung up, she stood at the airport and stayed there for a while as she thought about where she wanted to go.Greyson had arranged everything very properly. Shortly after, a driver came over and picked them up straight away.The big screen outside the airport was showing a press con

Jade felt helpless in the face of his intimate touch every time. She would touch him without realizing it, and he would kiss her passionately all of a sudden. Whenever it ended, he would still look sober. But she would blush and quiver, while her lips would become red and swollen.The period inside the elevator was extremely short. When the door opened without warning, the flustered Jade pushed Zephaniah away. When a few people who were waiting for the elevator saw the scene, all of them were stunned. Very quickly, some of them held back their laughter, while some of them pretended as if they did not see anything. They respectfully greeted Zephaniah beside her, “Mister Owens.”They were the staff members of his company.Jade could not wait to grit her teeth and run away.However, Zephaniah still had his hand locked around her waist. He appeared aloof as usual, and he seemed a little unhappy because of the interruption. He nodded slightly before he held her out.Jade dared not turn

“It’s starting soon. Let’s go down.”Zephaniah held the nook of an arm out, and her slim and fair hands were wrapped around his arm. Two of them walked out to the well-decorated banquet.When the main characters appeared, they immediately attracted the attention from the guests in the hall. The reporters did not even let go of such a good chance. The flash of the camera was on by the moment they walked in.It took them five minutes to walk from the entrance to the most interior of the hall.“Who is this lady beside you, Mister Owens?”“My wife.”“How long have you been married? Your wife looks like she’s pregnant. Did you get married because of her premarital pregnancy? Any hidden agendas?”“That will remain private.”…… The questions were raised one after another, but Zephaniah took care of them all.Gemarya and Gilberto came quickly to usher the reporters elsewhere, and the remaining questions were answered by someone else.Heidi smiled as she walked over. She nodded to J

Roman’s thoughts ran deep. How was it possible for her to see through him so easily?Roman habitually touched his silver-grey sleeve. His gaze was profound, and he flashed a smile.“Naturally I am… concerned. After all, Mister Owens and I are old friends,” he said, his voice not lacking sincerity. “I just feel that Zephaniah’s mother is quite mean, especially on you, Miss Kirk.”Blanche did not work in the business industry for a very long time, but she had followed her father since she was small. She often saw such sly foxes. At least half of his words were hidden beneath motives, and whatever he did here was to get benefits. Dealing with him would not earn her any benefit.She folded her arms, quirked her eyebrows, and said, “Thank you for defending me against the injustice, but this is my personal fight. I wouldn’t want to trouble you.”Roman nodded and rubbed his chin. He looked as if he understood, and what he said next struck her sore point. “You’re really generous, Miss Kir
