FreeNovelKaren furrowed her perfectly arched brow and gave Jeffrey a playful slap.
"Can't you choose your words a bit more wisely?" What's with this "eating up someone's daughter' talk!? "I'm just being accurate!" Jeffrey said.
Rolling her eyes at him, Karen suddenly noticed something different about Jeffrey today; he was dressed to the nines in a crisp shirt and suit.

"Don't worry, I'll be back in a flash. As soon as it's over, I'm racing back home. Not a minute wasted." Karen let out a snort and teased him deliberately, "That's the sline you fedlast time, and you still managed to detour for a rendezvous with your ex, didn't you?" Jeffrey raised his eyebrows.
"So maybe save the promises, because you know I won't buy them." Jeffrey felt a vein throb at his temple. He had this sinking feeling that Paige would be a recurring punchline for the rest of his days, a ghost that would haunt him forever.
"Okay, how about I take you withtoday? You can hang out in my office. The Lopez Corporation meetings have a video call option, you can watch on my laptop, make sure I'm not playing hooky!" "Why would I camp out at your office? I'm not an employee of the Lopez Corporation." "To keep an eye on your husband! If you're there, who's gonna complain? If I don't have that much clout in the office, I might as well hand in my resignation! I didn't want you to cbefore because you were dealing with morning sickness, and I thought you'd be more comfortable resting at home. It wasn't about hiding anything from you!" Karen narrowed her eyes in a sly smile. "I know; you don't have to explain," she added.
She was just having a bit of fun at Jeffrey's expense.
"So just cwith me. Besides, Dorothy's at the office too. She's been assigned to a project team recently." At the mention of Dorothy, Karen immediately agreed, "Alright! You do your thing, and I'll catch up with Dorothy!" Staying halone was driving her up the wall.
Jeffrey had been overprotective lately, banning her from work and a multitude of other activities, which drove her stir-crazy.
Upon arriving at the office, Karen didn't rush off to find Dorothy because she knew the Lopez Corporation had its morning meetings. Search the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

"Take this meeting seriously," Everett's voice cthrough the phone, "Sof the old shareholders are resistant to the tech company acquisition. Rough words might fly; don't get into a spat pointless. "Got it," Jeffrey responded, pausing before adding, "When are you getting back from Liberty City?" "I don't know yet. What's up?" What's up? Why did he even dare to throw that question? "I think you should hurry back." After all, Kenneth was looming like a shadow! Kenneth was passionate as fire. What if he succeeded in chasing Dorothy? Everett didn't quite catch his drift. "Is there a problem?" he asked.
"Big problem! Haven't you felt the crisis inside? Someone's digging around!" "A headhunter has eyes on someone from the Lopez Corporation?" Jeffrey pondered for a moment, then clicked his tongue. "It's Dorothy "She's under contract, and Sunder she's already submitted her resignation. She'll be leaving in six months." "I'm not talking about work issues. I'm talking about the mother of your kids! Are you really planning to let Dorothy find a stepdad for Abigail and Langston?" Jeffrey quirked his lip, "You're clueless, man. As your friend, I've made huge sacrifices for your happily ever after!" He was risking the wrath of his future brother-in-law, and here was Everett, none the wiser.
