Chapter 21 Surprise or Scare
Chapter 21 Surprise or Scare
Laura took over the bowl, stirred the soup with a spoon and said, “How can she be so proud of taking
an pass-card of Nova, whatever, the one she was attached was only a follower not Kelvin Lewis. Now,
he has invited me to work in Heyday Group in person, and if I went there, there would be so many
chances for me to get him.”
“Kelvin?” Maria was so excited at hearing her daughter’s plan that she spoke in such a loud voice
which was the reason for the supercilious look to her from Laura. Then, Maria hurried to cover her
mouth and speak carefully, “You are going to tempt Kelvin? Isn’t he a gay?”
Laura just laughed jauntily, “All men like sexy beauties. Thinking about Albert, he originally fell in so
deeply love with Becca but now...”
Maria laughed too and appraised, “You are so clever like me, my daughter. If you can get Kelvin, the
Garcia and the Davis would be just so so for us. Oh, my sweetie, now I can’t wait to be Kelvin’s mother-
in-law.”
Just thinking of this title, Maria got too excited to fall asleep. She can’t help thinking the grand occasion
of the marriage between Laura and Kelvin. At that time, all she lost could be offset.
Suddenly, Becca appeared in her mind, then she asked, “What are you going to do about Becca? Now,
she was sent in jail but the police can’t do anything about her if she doesn’t confirm her criminal.”
“Take it easy, mom.” Laura gave the bowl back to her mother and continued, “The baby she killed is the
eldest grandson of the Davis, so the Davis won’t let her go off responsibility easily Of course, my cry
would help this to happen. Now since she was in jail, and she can never come out.” Laura looked
sinister and said in an indifferent tone.
In Laura’s view, all Becca did was to compete with her since they were young, so her elder sister-in-law
managed to do everything better than her to prove her importance. So what, she tried everything but
finally being an ant to be trodden by her no matter when and where.
They were interrupted by a knock of the door, Maria put down the bowl and stood up to open the door.
At that moment, she was so surprised of the men standing here, “Master Lewis?” A bold idea burst into
her mind, ‘does he really like Laura?’
Not only Maria was astonished about Kelvin’s coming in person, but also Laura who was hurried to sit
upright after hearing her mother’s cry. And she felt her heartbeat quicken.
“Mrs. Garcia”, Bill, Kelvin’s driver and loyal follower, came in first and gave the tonic they brought to
Maria, “Master Lewis has heard of the thing happened to Laura Garcia, so we come to pay a visit. Here
is our gift, please don’t turn us down...”
“Well, thanks, thanks.” Maria nodded like a chick pecking at rice. Then she turned around to Laura and
gave her a hint with eyes.
Receiving the hint, Laura freshened herself up and waited for the coming of Kelvin.
Last time she met Kelvin sitting at the car outside the Garcia residence. It was a hurried meeting that
she couldn’t see clear of his face. But now, she got the chance and was soon deeply attracted by his
powerful aura and pretty handsome looking. Yeah, this is Kelvin Lewis, the chief of the Lewis, a man
she could only watch from afar. But today, he came to visit her in person.
So, she tried her best to make a pretty soft voice, “Master Lewis.”
Kelvin didn’t respond her, just took a chair and sat down leisurely.
Then she continued, “I’m so honored that you came here to see me the ordinary girl in person.”
Kelvin didn’t care about what she was saying and was just playing his cigarette lighter which was taken
from his pocket and made a voice of click-click. Noticing her voice disappeared, he said in a cold voice
without raising his eyes, “Drop the case.”
“What?” Laura was confused by his words.
“Give up suing Becca.” Kelvin unusually gave some patient to her and said again.
At this moment, Laura’s expectation gradually turned to suspicion.
Then she asked, “Are you here for interceding for Becca, Master Lewis?” Actually, she had made an
explanation for Kelvin that he came here because of Kelly, his comrade-in-arms and the boyfriend of
Becca, not Becca. And it should be under the expectation.
But she still said in smile, “It was you that called the police, wasn’t it? And I would only tell the truth to
police about how my elder sister killed my baby.”
Hearing this, Kelvin finally stopped playing his cigarette lighter and raised his eyes which now spelled
death.
Then, Bill explained calmly, “About six months ago, a lady lost her priceless diamond necklace. To stop
this kind of thing from happening again, we installed high-definition spy cameras on the mirrors in
washrooms.”
Suddenly, Laura’s face turned pale. She never expected that there would be spy cameras in
washroom. Something suddenly occurred to her and made her panic that all conversation and actions
between she and Becca were recorded. Then, she looked at Maria who was now in panic too.
“What do you want to do, Master Lewis?” Laura asked in a pretty scared mood.
“I have told you. Drop the case. Nobody can distort facts in my place.” Kelvin closed the lighter and
responded.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Now, Laura can’t make clear of his intension and said, “Master Lewis, this is our family affair and do
you come here for Kelly Clark?”
‘Mr. Clark?’ Kelvin felt speechless and said, “It is nothing to do with you, and I just want to remind you
to keep yourself legit which is the prerequisite of entering in Heyday Group. You must understand what
I mean.”
Laura blinked and tried to figure out his implication. And what she found at last was that he was here
not for Becca, but because he didn’t want her to broke her future because of Becca.
“So, Master Lewis, you mean I could work in Heyday with your permission if I give up suing Becca,
doesn’t it?”
Kelvin just stood and left without a word but a casual glance at her and a meaningful smile.
