Chapter 37
Juliet hurriedly left Brantley’s office. What she said was just an excuse. Mikayla hadn’t had time to hang out with her since she was caught up with work and her relationship.
Brantley called Harvey to take the lunch box Juliet had brought, as usual. Despite his attempt at focusing, he felt exhausted just from reviewing. documents. Irritated, he got up and walked to the window.
He spotted Juliet’s lonely figure in the spacious square. Multiple thoughts–Juliet’s feelings… Last night, Hugo suddenly asked him to return to the villa and said something to him–flooded in. As he turned around, he glimpsed the photo in the newspaper in the corner. He stared at the headline, unmoved.
Juliet sighed and wondered, What should I do to kill time? I knew this would happen, but I couldn’t help it! I want to see him! Juller! Oh, Juliet! You were asking for it!
Just then, her phone rang, breaking the silence. She quickly pulled it out and saw Brantley’s name on the screen, disbelief washing over her. She looked up and saw him standing by the window
Putting the phone to her ear, she cautiously spoke, “Brantley?”
“Let’s try dating.” Brantley said plainly. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Juliet was stunned. “What did you just say?”
“Let’s try dating, he repeated.
Meanwhile, Mikayla was driving to the Prairie Hotel with Quinnlyn and Patricia.
“Quinnlyn, reserve a deluxe private room and order the best dishes and drinks. You’ve dealt with this person with upper management before, so satisfy his tastes. Mikayla sat in the passenger seat of the car and swore silently, We must take him down today!
“Will do!” Quinnlyn immediately contacted the hotel.
Mikayla was about to instruct Patricia when she received a message. She opened the message and her face fell as she looked at the photo, in which Jason was asleep beside Winona, his hand resting on her stomach. It was clear Winona took the photo on purpose.
Mikayla deleted the photo, planning to ignore it. But the next moment, a call came in. She thought for a moment before answering it. “Yes?”
“Mikayla, I didn’t take you for a schemer!” said the voice from the oder end.
“If you’re calling just to say that, please find someone else. I’m busy Mikayla retorted. She wouldn’t have answered the call if it wasn’t for the important meeting later. She knew if she didn’t answer it, Winona would go to great lengths to reach her.
“Why? Do you think relying on your dad to get a job will make you anything special” Winona taunted. “Or are you upset Jaxon chose me? Do think competing with Huxley in the company will hurt me? Do you think I’ll end up miserable without Salvatore Group hacking me up!”
She hadn’t gone back to her parent’s place yet, so she didn’t go to the Salvatore manor with Logan and the rest the other day. But Mildred had called her first thing to fill her in Regardless of whether Mildred exaggerated, Mikayla had definitely angered Winona
If my guess is right, Mikayla is really smart, trying to kill two birds with one stone, Winona thought.
“Since you figured it out, I admit it!” Mikayla said, looking out the window, wishing she could just end the call. I should’ve just blocked their numbers! she ruminated silently.
you
“Mikayla, you won’t get what you want! I won’t let that happen! The company can only belong to Huxley, and Jaxon can only be mine!” Winona was so angry that she nearly lost control of her voice.
Hearing her gritting her teeth, Mikayla couldn’t help but gloat and dash off the thought of blocking their numbers. “If she’s asking for trouble, I might as well give it to her, she thought cheekily.
“By the way, I’m having a son! He’ll be the eldest son of the Lindstrom family!” Winona bragged before hanging up.
Yet, a relieved expression crossed Mikayla’s face. So what? The Lindstrom family isn’t my true home, and Jaxon isn’t a good match for me. Having a son wouldn’t bring me happiness, she thought.
