Chapter 969
Spoiled by the President
âSince Jean was the one who picked it up, then we could take it back from her. Sean, please donât start fights with other people. After all, she might be a nice person as she may be waiting for us to retrieve the jade pendant.â
Seanâs face began to gloom. âI donât think that she is a good person at all. She probably wanted to keep the pendant for herself. If she wanted the owner to claim it, then she would have passed it to the boss over here. Why would she silently take it away?â
Cathy pouted. She then sighed.
âDonât say it like that. The Leith family is a prestigious family that holds a lot of power. Miss Leith wouldnât do something like that. If she refuses to give it back, then we could buy it from her. Itâs no big deal.â
Sean did not say another word after listening to Cathy.
After a while, Mr. Donnelly returned.
As he entered the room, he displayed a cheerful smile on his face. âHow is it? Did you find any clues?â
Cathy smiled. âYes, we found some clues. However, we might need to ask for your help to contact someone.â
Mr. Donnelly raised his eyebrows in surprise. âOh, you found it? Who picked it up?â
Cathy waited for a while before answering, âIt was Miss Leith, the person who did business with you last time.â
As she said that, Mr. Donnelly was getting a cup of water in front of the water dispenser. He froze in shock as he heard what Cathy said.
He had only regained his senses right before the cup was about to overflow. He turned off the switch and walked towards Cathy with a cup in hand.
âJean Leith? Are you sure?â
Cathy nodded her head as she turned the laptop screen in his direction. She replayed that section of the video to him once more.
Mr. Donnelly was speechless after watching the video.
He was at a loss for words. He then sighed.
âIf it was another person, then I could have easily handled this case. However, regarding Miss Leith...â
He furrowed his eyebrows in distress. âI donât even have Miss Leith's contact information.â
Cathy and Sean were surprised. âYou donât have her contact information? Didnât she say that she was going to invest in your business last time?
Didnât she leave a phone number for you?â
Mr. Donnelly smiled. âShe is a mistress from a wealthy family. Donât take everything that she says seriously! She isnât the head of the Leith family, after all. She couldnât possibly have taken out one and a half billion dollars to do business with me. There is a high chance that she will call off the deal.â
He looked at Cathy and Sean as their eyes darkened. In the end, he felt sympathy towards them.
âHow about this? You guys can wait for a few days to see if sheâll come back to look for me. If she isnât planning to come back, then I will help you to get her contact information. Jean might be a stubborn person, but she will not give you too much trouble as long as your demands are reasonable.â
Sean and Cathy nodded their heads.
On one side, Cathy was looking for Jean.
On the other side, Nell was looking for Cathy.
From the moment Nell acquired the jade pendant, she realized that something was off.
When Cathy passed away, the only thing that she left behind for her daughter was a necklace. Shaun had already pawned off the other stuff from the Morrison family.
Due to Sylviaâs hatred towards Cathy, she had incinerated everything that Cathy had used before.
As such, a jade pendant like that should not be out there in the world.
Maybe they had tricked Nell from the beginning?
When they said that they were going to incinerate Cathyâs relics, did they sell them off instead?
Nell did not know the answer. However, she knew that she was going to get to the bottom of it.
After all, those were her motherâs relics. She did not want them to be scattered all around the world, no matter what.
She needed to get them back. Even if they were destroyed beyond recognition, she could never let them land in the hands of others.
As she thought of that, she called Jean immediately.
On the other side, Jean was slightly surprised when she received a call from Nell.
âNelly, why did you call me?â
Nell smiled. âAunty, where are you?â
âMe? I am getting a facial right now. Do you want to join me? Let me tell you about how amazing the beauticians are over here. You are so busy every day, plus you are pregnant right now. You need to take care of your skin. Women get old quickly, so you must be careful as your husband might go out and...â
Nellâs forehead began to ache as Jean derailed from the original question.
At last, Nell cut Jean off. âSend the address to me. I will be right there.â
After Jean heard Nellâs response, she agreed happily. âOkay, I will send the address to you.â
When she hung up the call, Jean immediately sent the address to Nell.
Nell looked at the address on her phone. She keyed in the address into the GPS and drove to the beauty parlor.
On the other side, Jean had sent the address to Nell after hanging up. She then bragged to the beautician next to her. âDo you know who called me just now? Thatâs my niece-in-law, but she feels like my daughter-in-law.â
âOh, you guys know that I am not married, plus I donât have any kids. Thus, having my nephew by my side technically feels like having a son.â
The beautician smiled. âDo your nephew and niece-in-law treat you well?â
âDefinitely. They take good care of me. I can spend as much of their money as I want. Didnât you hear? My niece-in-law is rushing over here to pay the bill after she heard that I was getting a facial.â
The beauticians did not know about her true identity. They knew that she was not an ordinary rich person just by looking at how fashionable she was.
They laughed and said respectfully, âYour niece-in-law is so thoughtful. You must be a lucky person.â
Jean laughed to express her satisfaction. Then, she closed her eyes to enjoy her facial.
Nell arrived twenty minutes later.
She knew that Jean would not sleep no matter how comfortable the facial was. That was because Jean knew that Nell was coming.

ï¤Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 As Jean heard the sound of high heels from outside, she woke up immediately. She waved her hand so that the beauticians would move away. She then sat in an upright position.
She turned her head and saw Nell walking towards her.
âNelly, you are here.â
Nell looked at the cheerful smile on Jeanâs face and smiled as well. She then sat beside Jean.
âAunty, you look happy today. What made you think of having a facial here?â
Jean had invited Nell to do facials with her a few times in the past. As such, Nell was familiar with the beauty parlors that Jean had visited before.
However, she had never visited that particular beauty parlor before.
Jean smiled. âThe beauty parlors before werenât that good. They kept on offering the same services, so I got bored with them. Hellen recommended this beauty parlor to me two days ago. I tried the services here, and I was pleasantly surprised. Do you want to have a go as well?â
She looked at Nell with a glint of hope in her eyes. Nell paused for a while. She then said, âI am not going to try the services at this beauty parlor today. I came here to talk about serious business with you.â
Nell turned her head and looked at the staff who were standing beside them.
âExcuse me, but can all of you leave for now?â
They were shocked as they looked at each other in blank dismay.
