Just as she was thinking about it, Karl sent her another voice message, “Honey, do you like this dress? I want to buy it for you. Do you prefer purple or brown?”
Peace immediately replied, “I don’t like either of them. Come here soon, I’m so sleepy.”
“You can go to sleep now, dear. You don’t have to wait for me. I’ll go get you some more food.” Karl didn’t appear to grasp the hint.
Peace rolled her eyes and drew her blouse down to display her left shoulder. She bit her lower lip and took a picture before saying, “Okay, III sleep now.” 331 Not Your Honey:
After posting it, she flung her phone onto the bed and walked to the restroom. She laughed as her phone continued to ring. Karl would come to visit her in half an hour, she predicted.
Netizens followed Wayne’s proposal because everyone was taken aback by his wealth. He had always been a low-key man who disliked being the center of attention. When the company’s public relations manager asked if he wanted to do something about it, he said, “No need.”
The PR manager looked surprised at Gabe and then said, “Really? Our company’s name has been on the trend list for so long. Isn’t that a little inappropriate?”’
Gabe shrugged and said, “You can ask him yourself if you don’t believe me. That’s what he told me anywa
The manager waved his hand and said, “Forget it, let’s just listen to him. He must have a reason for doing it.”
Gabe didn’t have much work to do then, so he started chatting with him. “Why?” He asked.
“I just conducted some investigation and discovered that our group’s stock market has been rising since Wayne proposed to Anna. Everyone praises him as a devoted man, so our company’s reputation improved. He is really a business genius! He can even make our stock grow by proposing Anna.”
Gabe gave him a thumbs up in surprise and said, “I’m sure PR professionals are amazing at analysis, but I think you’re overthinking it. This is not so complicated.”
“Is that so? Then so why did he buy so many diamond rings? You know, everyone is envious of his wife!”
Gabe replied after a while of silence, “That’s because he’s rich.”
They both paused and sighed over how much money Wayne had at 331 Not Your Honey: the same time. After a while, Gabe left the PR department and went to Wayne’s office.
When he entered the office, Wayne was reading the annual reports that each department had given him. Everyone was very busy at the end of the year, especially the finance department. Many staff had been working long hours, and Wayne had also worked hard.
Wayne looked up when he spotted Gabe and asked, “How are you getting the M&A contracts ready?”
Anna had previously resold all of her Gabriel Group shares to Richard. But the contract was canceled because it was unreasonable, and Richard was arrested
Anna assumed that was the end of the story. However, she had learned through a Gabriel Group employee that Shirley intended to sell the company, and she informed Wayne of this. She felt more at ease selling the group to Wayne because it was her father’s life’s work.
“Yes, it’s almost done. The project managers have been extremely busy recently, so we are currently waiting for the official start date ”
“Okay, thank you.”
Gabe then said seriously, “By the way, I’d like to show you something I’ve repaired surveillance record in front of Leo’s house, and I found several visitors who stayed there at that time.”
He then handed Wayne the screenshot printout. As Wayne examined it, his expression gradually becoming grim. He recognized that the young man wearing the black hat was Ryan.
Gabe frowned and said, “Actually, I thought at first that this guy just looked like Ryan. Then I checked his travel records for that period and he did buy a train ticket from Birmingham to that town. He’d been staying there for a month before you asked me to look for Leo.”
Only part of that security footage was available, and Gabe had seen Ryan on it. At that time, Wayne didn’t know who Ryan was or what was wrong because Anna had just met him.
Almost everyone in that town had converted their homes into B&Bs. So, Wayne assumed back then that Ryan was just a college student visiting that town, and it was no surprise that he was staying at Leo’s place. However, as he gathered more evidence, he found that Ryan was there at a strange time. As a result, he was suspicious of him.
“I think this matter is quite serious. If this really has something to do with him, we’d better let the police handle it.” Gabe said.
Wayne answered, shaking his head, “No, let’s talk about it later. You can work on your searching now.”
“Why? Because Miss Gabriel would be worried about it?”
Wayne frowned tightly, but didn’t answer the question. He asked, “How’s that other thing you’re working on?”
He was talking about Lilly Johnson, who had previously claimed to be Matthew’s mother. He wanted to find her because his instinct told him that someone had told her to do so. He felt that if he didn’t know what had happened, something bad might happen later.
Gabe said, “Yes, I did find her. She’s recently been working as a call girl in a bar, She met a wealthy businessman some time ago and hasn’t worked since. I believe she probably will come back to work soon.”
Gabe had no trouble finding her. He found that many women would not have the guts to do so, so he went to numerous bars and nightclubs in 332 He’s Really Nice search of her. She had offended the Wrights, so she usually didn’t go out during the day.
Recently, many nightclubs in Birmingham were closed because the police had found drug dens. Gabe instantly discovered Lily within one of them.
Wayne nodded seriously and said, “Don’t forget to ask her what’s really going on. You know what you should do then, don’t you?”
Wayne hadn’t been this enraged in a long time. Gabe winced, then immediately nodded and said, “Yes, I do.”
Wayne was conflicted after Gabe left as he gazed at the screenshot in his hand. He had prevented Gabe from telling the cops about itnot just because of Anna but also because he didn’t believe Ryan would murder anyone.
Ryan attended Ministry Academy, which had extremely strict restrictions. If they call the police, the police department would undoubtedly inform the principal of his school. That way, the principal would know that Ryan was working as a private detective and conducting unlawful investigations, which might get himself into huge trouble. Besides, Wayne thought he could directly ask Ryan about it.
After doing all his work, Wayne found that it was exactly 3:00 p.m. He reasoned that he could ask Ryan about what was happening before heading to the nursery.
Meanwhile, Emily was lying on the hospital bed, beaming Jennie and saying, “Thank you, Aunt Jennie. Those oranges are so delicious.”
Jennie was peeling an apple by the bedside at the time. “I’ll buy you some more later,” she said cheerfully.
As for Ryan, he was sitting at an adjacent table, staring at his computer. He raised his head and asked, “Yeah? I’m worried about you, 332 He’s Really Nice Emily. You’ve been eating too many oranges recently, and maybe you’ll get constipated.”
Emily gave him a stern look and replied, “Why are you speaking in this manner? You’re just jealous that I can eat such delicious oranges! I won’t give you any of them!”
“Okay, mom, buy her some more oranges. If she becomes constipated, she can just go upstairs to the anorectal department, and you can still take care for her.”
Hearing that, Jennie glared at him and said, “How can you talk to Emily like way, Ryan? That’s so rude.”
Emily lifted an eyebrow, then gave him a dismissive expression and exclaimed, “Right!”
Ryan closed his laptop after hearing Jennie speak up for Emily. He said, “It appears that I’m an eye-sore here. So, I’m going to leave right now.”
Emily asked, “What? Where are you going?”
“Are you asking me? I think both of you think I’m annoying. You see, my mother even treats you like she’s your mother. I won’t come here again. Bye!”
Emily looked panicked and yelled, “No! I was only kidding with you.”
When Jennie realized how badly Emily wanted Ryan to stay, she laughed and said, “Don’t make fun of Emily anymore, Ryan. You’ve known each other for a long time, so you must know her better than I do. She thought you’re being serious.”
