The Billionaire’s Treasure Wife

Chapter 102: Shame or Shame



In the living room, Mr. and Mrs. Wilbert frowned sadly, each occupying a corner of the sofa, without Phoebe.

Kaley sat straight over and spoke lightly: “I came today, I think you guys know what it’s about.”

“Sister …” Nancy shouted nervously, and then lowered her head again, staring at her twisted hands, “Phoebe is still a child, she did go too far this time, we apologize to you on his behalf. .”

“Apology is useful, what else do you need the police for!” Kaley interrupted her disdainfully, “Also, I’m not your sister, don’t call her so affectionate.”

Seeing that his wife had been aggrieved, Wilbert looked up with a black face and met Kaley’s eyes, saying unhappily, “If you are here today as a guest, we welcome you. If not, please leave immediately.”

The living room abruptly silent, Kaley left and right to look at the couple for a while, angry laugh: “I come to see you do not need to look at your face, the murderer but everything confessed, want to protect the shortcomings is not so easy.”

After the words, raised his hand towards the police behind a gesture, Shi Shi stood up: “I do not disturb you to handle the case, I hope justice is dealt with, to return the victims a justice.”

The lead police officer nodded expressionlessly and greeted his colleagues, asking for Phoebe’s whereabouts and showing them an arrest warrant.

Kaley was so upset that he went out the door and boarded his own car, instructing the driver to drive to Nine Lakes Mountain.

She has to demand an explanation for Burton’s injury.

In contrast to the tense atmosphere of The Corfield family, the Grant Residence is simply bustling with activity.

Charlotte is lounging on the couch, nibbling with Lindsey from time to time, while Mack and Bruce are playing chess not far away. And Cary was on the side with Carl, painstakingly handling the company’s paperwork.

After chatting for a while, Charlotte picked up a piece of cantaloupe with a toothpick and put it into her mouth with graceful movements, saying vaguely, “Phoebe is going to be scared to death.”

“Scared to death isn’t really death.” Lindsey gave her a blank look, curled her arm and bumped her, lowered her voice and said, “Have you found the whereabouts of Bruce’s classmate?”

“She doesn’t even know where she’s hiding, it’s just a pawn.” Charlotte raised an eyebrow: “Bruce did not find out anything.”

Lindsey shook her head, suspicion is not the same as confirmation. Bruce has been investigating the car accident, and originally wanted to fake a crush on Tina to get her to tell him why she made that phone call in the first place, but he was a poor actor and couldn’t act himself.

Now that Burton is injured and in the hospital, Tina is hiding and not showing up, all she can do is wait.

After a few moments of silence, Charlotte sat up straight and drew a tissue to wipe her hands. Smiling, she said, “Tomorrow’s annual company meeting, you and Bruce come together.”

“I won’t be there.” Lindsey sweated, the annual meeting is a corporate event after all, it seems inappropriate to go in her capacity.

Charlotte glared at her with displeasure: “You have to go, and you have to dress nicely. After the New Year’s Eve, the company will be handed over to Bruce, and I will prepare for my pregnancy, and your brother-in-law will take a rare wedding leave.”

“Okay …” Lindsey glanced at the two men still playing chess and lowered her voice to laugh: “You haven’t told me how you know your brother-in-law.”

“Said no laughing.” Charlotte blushed in a rare moment, and her eyes fell lovingly on Mack as she told the story of how they met.

Lindsey listened to the story and couldn’t help but sigh at the miracle of fate; Charlotte always had a bodyguard following her when she went out, but just once she met Mack without one.

“Brother-in-law is amazing.” Lindsey leered at her ear and said ambiguously, “Very impressive indeed.”

“You tell me.” Charlotte blushed even redder, “Shame on you.”

Lindsey laughed, Charlotte had a nickname in Kyoto, called Ice Beauty. Whether it was the rich kids or the elite upstarts who never loved or hated her, by the time the wedding announcement was made, there was no telling how many people would be in stitches.

Lindsey and Charlotte both got up and laughed about the outcome of the game.

Bruce laughed but didn’t say anything, while Mack, still looking cool, took Charlotte into his arms and calmly said goodbye.

When Cary and Carl saw this, they tacitly put away their computers and documents and went back to the side yard to rest.

“Did brother-in-law lose or win?” Lindsey looked at Bruce confusedly, intuiting that his smile was a bit dejected tonight.

“Do you want me to lose or win?” Bruce asked rhetorically, pulling her onto his lap and sliding the wheelchair back into the room, “Tell the truth.”

“You can’t be disappointed if you don’t have hopes.” Lindsey’s eyes shone brightly, filled with laughter, “It’s better not to guess at such frivolous things.”

Bruce was silent, and the smile on his face gradually froze to his lips.

After sending him to his room, Lindsey shrugged and went back to her room to get her pajamas and take a shower.

Bruce sat sullenly in his wheelchair until he couldn’t hear the slightest movement outside, then he slowly took out the cell phone in his pocket and dialed a number.

Bruce was threatened by Lindsey and sang a lullaby in the middle of the night, waking up in the morning with a pair of panda eyes that were particularly striking.

The new year is approaching, and all of the maids in the old house who want to go back have basically said hello to the logistics.

Lindsey took the list back to the side yard and asked Bruce how to arrange the mid-year shift.

“You just set it.” Bruce yawned, pulled her onto his lap, rested his chin on her shoulder, and murmured, “Do you want to go back to Cloud Mountain?”Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

“I haven’t decided yet, my big brother is on duty every year, my second brother is about the same, and Warren is definitely staying in L city,” Lindsey looked out the window unconsciously, her voice getting smaller and smaller: “There’s no one to spend New Year’s Eve with me when I go back.”

“This side of the New Year will be more tedious, if you do not like it, we will be in the old house, not to go live with grandpa, uncle and the others.” Bruce yawned again, “I’ll do as you say.”

Lindsey smiled, tilted her head on his chest, and closed her eyes in a depressed mood.

She missed her grandfather, who used to write his own couplets during New Year’s Eve, cook her good food, and give her money.

Sometimes her three brothers could go home, sometimes they couldn’t, and Lindsey spent many years with her grandfather. Once her grandfather left, Lindsey didn’t even have a home, so she didn’t have the heart to celebrate New Year.

A few moments later, Lindsey calmed down and stood up to pull him along to the training room.

Lindsey practica boxeo y Bruce hace rehabilitación. A la hora de comer, Bruce, que nunca ha visto la televisión, la enciende de repente y en sus ojos hay una cierta pesadumbre que Lindsey no entiende.
