Just as she was about to hang up, the private investigator said, âMr. Pond is leaving the company. We wonât tail him.â
âOkay.â
Mindy waited for an hour, but Idris was still not home. Her imagination began to run wild again.
She hesitated for a while before she gave Idris a call.
âWhere are you?â
Idris sounded a bit impatient. âWhere else can I be besides the company? Why are you calling me?â
When Mindy heard this, anger immediately consumed her.
âIdris Pond, you left the company an hour ago. Where are you working right now?â
Idris remained silent for a few seconds before he angrily asked, âMindy Woods, did you send someone to tail me?â
Mindy sneered. âYes. What of it? Youâve been lying to me, Idris Pond. Where are you right now?â
Idris hung up right after she spoke.
Half an hour later, he returned home.
The moment he opened the bedroom door, Mindy rushed toward him. She grabbed his collar with a crazed expression.
âIdris Pond, where were you earlier?â
He pushed her to the floor with a disgusted look and coldly said, âI was socializing with some clients. Do I need to report that to you? What are you suspicious of?â
Mindy had a skeptical look. âWhat did you discuss with that woman in the pavilion earlier? She wasnât on our guest list today. How are you related to her?â
Idris was secretly shocked. He did not expect Mindy to see him talking to Sophia.
However, he calmed down immediately and glared at Mindy.
âSheâs my client. She came with her friends. Youâre only friends with women who have fun. Of course you wouldnât know her!â
Mindyâs eyes continued to shine with suspicion. âReally?â
Idris stared at her impatiently. âForget it! I still have a lot of work to do. I donât have time to talk nonsense with you!â
He left after that.
Mindy stared at him and only lowered her head when he disappeared from her sight.
âYouâd better not lie to me, Idris Pond!â
The next day, Silvia received a call from Chris just as she was about to clock out.
âSilvia, are you free tonight? I want to ask you out for dinner.â
They planned to meet at a restaurant with a private kitchen. Since it was rush hour after work, Silvia ended up arriving half an hour after the agreed time.
She walked into the private room and immediately apologized when she saw Chris. âIâm sorry for being late.â
Chris gave her a warm smile. âItâs okay. Weâre not in a rush.â
After that, he handed her a box. âYour birthday present. Take a look and see if you like it.â
Silvia opened the box and found a jade bracelet inside. Based on the coloration, it had to be worth at least ten million dollars.
She frowned. âThis is too expensive.â
When Chris saw her reluctance in accepting the gift, he said, âItâs not expensive at all. If it wasnât for you, who knows if I would be sitting here and having dinner with you.â
Silvia wanted to reject it at first, but when she thought about Chrisâs personality, she nodded and accepted the gift. She secretly decided to give him something of similar value on his birthday.
âLetâs order our food.â
Silvia took the menu. âSince youâve given me such an expensive birthday present, dinner is on me.â
Chris did not reject her offer. He nodded and said, âSure.â

They were talking about the baby inside Adaâs belly. However, their discussion was not going smoothly.
Liamâs expression was cold, and his gaze was ruthless. âWhat will it take for you to abort this baby?â
