It wasn’t until Russels figure completely disappeared that I realized my eyes were already moist

Neil’s hand reached out, brushing the corner of my eye gently. He asked in a low voice, “You are crying?”

I dodged his hand, shook my head, and replied, “No. I didn’t cry”

“That’s good then. I don’t like seeing you cry over other men.’ Neil withdrew his hand, his words carrying a hint of warning.

I composed myself and replied. “That’s for me to decide. Whether you like it or not, you shouldn’t interfere.”

Neil’s voice was cold, “Let’s go home.”

I silently followed behind Neil. It was raining outside, and his car was parked not far away.

Neil held up a black umbrella, slightly tilting it towards me. I didn’t resist because I didn’t want to catch a cold from the rain.

Once we got in the car, I spoke up again, Neil, you don’t have to pick me up anymore. Bailey can pick me up, or I can drive myself.”

*1 just happened to be passing by, I just came from StarGlow Enterprises Neil was very straightforward with me, not hiding his contact with Bonnie.

“Don’t you find it weird? You like to control me, but what about you? Bonnie is still being flirty with you and Kitty seems to like you. Who’s next? Have I ever interfered with you?” I couldn’t help but counter

Neil.

Neil answered casually. “Are you jealous?”

I scoffed, “Don’t flatter yourself’

Neil glanced at me, his face easing up a bit. He was acting like a boy in his first relationship, happy at any sign of jealousy from me.

When we got back to Sterling Estates, my phone was flooded with messages. Stella, Alicia, and Barbara were spamming the group chat with messages about Russel’s upcoming engagement.

Stella sent a message. “Rena, are you off work yet? Where are you? Let’s get drinks! I’ve left my kid with the nanny I wanna hear about you and RussellTM

Alicia replied. “I can get out of work today. Where should we meet?”

Barbara also replied, “I m free anytime. I heard Russel’s mom has terminal cancer

Stella chimed in, “Really? Where did you hear that?”

Barbara added, “A friend mentioned it, so I’m not sure if it’s true. Poor Russel

I watched the messages pop up on my screen as my face grew heavier.

Neil had already gone upstairs to take a shower while I sat on the sofa, lost in thought.

After a while, I replied, “I can’t go out right now I don’t want to concern myself with Russel’s affairs anymore.”

If it really was because of me that Russel went against his mother’s wishes he would blame me in the future.

Just as I was lost in thought, Neil somehow appeared behind the sofa. The scent of his shower gel wafted over me, interrupting my thoughts.

“What are you thinking about? You look deep in thought Neil sat down beside me, his long legs were casually crossed, and his voice sounded a bit lazy

“Nothing I’m going to take a shower.” I picked up my bag, ready to go upstairs.

“Take a shower after dinner. Dinner is almost ready” Neil grabbed my hand, preventing me from leaving.

Sure enough, right after Neil finished speaking, a servant came to tell us, ‘Mr. Whitmore, Ms. Finch, dinner is ready.”

I had no choice but to put down my bag and go to the dining room.

Even though Faith had returned to Springvale, the tasks she had given to the servants were still being carried out well. I looked at the delicious food on the table, feeling sorry for the chef.

Neil served me a bowl of creamy mushroom soup, 7 heard that drinking soup can make you fat. You should give it a try.”

“As long as I’m healthy, I don’t care about being fat or thin.”I bowed my head to drink the soup, responding calmly

“It’s not good to be so skinny that you don’t even have breasts. You should at least consider your future husband Neil’s words were shocking.

The servants standing by could hardly hold back their laughter and quietly walked away

My face was a bit hot. I was already self-conscious about my slender figure, feeling like I wasn’t womanly enough with no breasts or butt. Now that Neil said this, it felt like a blow to my ego.

Not to mention the waitstaff heard it too, which doubled my embarrassment.

That’s for my future husband to worry about, not you. Worst case scenario, I can just get plastic surgery, anyone can have big boobs and a big butt.”I tried to keep a straight face.

Neil snorted, his face was full of disdain.

Just as we were eating in silence, the doorbell rang. The servant peeked out and then opened the door

Cooper’s voice came in, “Neil, let’s have another match today!”

After seeing me in the dining room, he from. His face was full of shock and confusion, finally settling on Neil.

“You’çant win against me” After seeing Cooper, a smirk appeared on Nell’s face, “How many times do you need to lose to be satisfied?”

Why is Irene here?” Cooper’s attention was clearly all on me.

Neil glanced at me and casually said, “She’s staying with me for now. Don’t ask too much about a man’s and woman’s affairs, especially since you’ve never been married”

Cooper was even more shocked. Before he could respond, Neil added, “Oh, remember to take that scarf with you today. It’s been causing me a lot of

trouble here”

After hearing the word ‘scarf, my ears pricked up.

Once Cooper recovered, he quickly sat down at the table, making sure I heard him say, “Ah, right, right, right, that scarf is Kitty’s. I bumped into her at the bar the other day. She forgot to take her scarf, so I wore it. Then when I came to play games with Neil, I forgot it here.”

I didn’t respond and just got up after finishing my meal. “You guys continue chatting. I’m going upstairs.”

Kitty?”

As I was leaving, I overheard Cooper asking Neil in a low voice. “Are you two getting back together? What about Kitty?”

I didn’t hear Neil’s response, but Cooper guessed wrong. We weren’t getting back together, so there was no need to worry about Kitty in this situation.

After taking a shower upstairs, I realized I hadn’t brought my phone or bag, so I put on clothes and went downstairs to retrieve them.

I bet Neil and Cooper had probably hit the game room by now, so I could have a bit of peace and quiet

By this point, the clarification video I posted online had stirred up quite a buzz. It clearly showed how Bonnie caught the bouquet and how she faked her fall. No matter how big of a mouth she had, there was no way she could talk her way out of this one.

Bonnie had been nominated as one of the top ten excellent female entrepreneurs in Rosemont, thanks to Gloria’s connections.

A young woman with zero experience and no track record could only get this far with the help of someone pulling strings behind the scenes.

The clarification video I posted had undoubtedly placed a roadblock in Bonnie’s path to glory. The notice to remove her from the candidate list had already been sent out.
