Noelle said, "What's there to thank me for?"She knew that after her status changed, there would be certain things she would have to handle even if she did not enjoy them."When I was your bodyguard, I fulfilled my duties as your bodyguard. Anything beyond that wasn't part of my job, so I never overstepped my boundaries."She spoke seriously. "We're in a relationship now, and we'll be husband and wife in the future. I know what the wife of a prominent family is expected to do, and I'll fulfill my responsibilities as the matriarch. I won't give anyone a reason to laugh at you."Even if she had no experience, she could learn from others. After watching Jane and Serenity handle all kinds of family affairs, Noelle understood the dos and don’ts of the lady of the house.A matriarch's position came with certain restrictions. Whatever she did, she had to consider the family's reputation, as well as her own and her relatives' standing. She could not simply do as she pleased.Well, Noelle
Chapter 5614
Yarrow Corporation was bold enough to take the risk. Darien valued Laurence's abilities and believed he could secure his position. That was why he was willing to collaborate with Longbottom Corporation even though the latter's internal power struggles had not settled yet.Strictly speaking, Yarrow Corporation was very fortunate to secure two major projects with Longbottom Corporation. The profits from those projects would be substantial, and Yarrow Corporation stood to gain far more from the partnership. They needed the collaboration more than Longbottom Corporation did. After Laurence dropped the hint, Darien would undoubtedly interfere in his grandson's love life. He would not allow Cian to marry Roxy.Noelle glanced at Laurence and asked, "Are you getting back at her for constantly pursuing you and ruining both our reputations back then?""Yep, it's revenge. It's not just her. Neither her sister nor any of her female cousins will be marrying into a wealthy family. I'm also goin
Chapter 5613
Noelle's cheeks flushed. She pushed Laurence away and walked to the desk to tidy it up.Laurence followed her and said, "You can leave these things to the secretary.""It's just a small task. There's no need to bother the secretary. He already has plenty of work to do and is busy enough as it is."Laurence was incredibly efficient, so it was exhausting to work alongside him. Noelle knew that very well.Although she had always been his bodyguard, she had stayed by his side every day and was practically inseparable from him. The amount of work he could finish in one day would take other people two, or even several days to complete.People often said that the employees who managed to establish themselves at Longtail Group all had great stress tolerance.They simply could not adapt to the workload without the ability to withstand pressure.Things had been a little easier when Sonny was around, since Laurence would not push himself so hard. However, after Sonny returned to Wiltspoon,

Before Doc passed away, he had personally trained Laurence. Most of his network and many of his resources had been handed over to Laurence as well.Darien felt relieved as he said, "Thank goodness our family has never offended Laurence. We can still collaborate with him on two major projects and don't have to worry about getting caught in his revenge. Cian, from now on, whenever Roxy comes looking for you, don't see her. Don't even let her into Yarrow Corp."It's not enough to simply refuse her advances. You have to keep your distance. Don't give her the slightest chance. Our family can't afford to offend Laurence."Cian hummed. "I understand, Grandpa."Laurence had no idea what Darien and Cian’s phone conversation was about, nor did he need to know. Although Darien was old, he was a shrewd man who understood the deeper meaning behind Laurence's words.Roxy wanted to secure a way out for her family through marriage and find herself a powerful ally.Not on his watch!As long as R
Chapter 5611
After a moment of silence, Cian replied, "I know, Grandpa. I don't have feelings for her. She used to look down on me, and now she's sucking up to me, chasing after me, and showering me with gifts. It makes me feel like I have the upper hand."I haven't outright rejected her, but there's no way I'll ever accept her. Of course I know her intentions. Besides, the Longbottom family has undergone a power shift. From now on, her own family will have to keep their heads down."They don't even have the chance to leave Havenmill. Laurence has them under constant surveillance, so they can't get away. Their only future is decline. I'm not stupid enough to fall for an opportunistic woman like her."The Yarrow family would be implicated too. Cian was Darien's most favored grandson, so he certainly was not lacking in intelligence. He was also not the type to let his lust rule him. Besides, Roxy’s beauty was not exactly breathtaking.Darien felt much reassured after hearing Cian's answer. "Glad

The people would be happy enough if the O'Connor family left them alone.After exchanging pleasantries, the two men got down to business.Yarrow Corporation and Longbottom Corporation had two projects they wanted to collaborate on. The former placed particular importance on this partnership, which was why Darien came in person to discuss the details.The two talked for a long time. Noelle listened quietly from the side, never interrupting and following Laurence's train of thought.Every so often, she refilled their teacups.They spent over an hour negotiating before finally reaching an agreement.Laurence made several calls, asking a few executives to come upstairs. After everyone had discussed the details with Darien, they agreed to sign the contract the next day.Darien picked up his teacup in satisfaction and took a sip. After setting it down, he checked the time and turned to Laurence. "Mr. Longbottom, I should get going."Laurence, Noelle, and the others stood. Laurence ex

Kevin York is a rare gem
Haha Kevin is funny but he has answers to everything.
I love the Kevin and Hayden story line. I'm tired of the one chapter a day nonsense. I love all of the couples or future couples but this is taking to long and costing to much. I'm done. I'll be back in 3 Days! J/K I'll be back soon as I get my notification.
Ugh! And here we go again. This story line is taking too long
How do you get back to the book after reviews
The conditions of this book are ridiculous and my fondness of the stories is fading fast.
How often does the book update?
I am reading married at first sight and the book stope at Chapter 1954 the book was not over please tell me why that is the end of the book
Absolutely ridiculous to release one or two chapters 5 pages in length on daily basis? I can’t believe I paid for this, if I like a story I keep reading ! This is such fraud who charges these fees ?? I’m a fool to get sucked in!
All these chapters and still not through the party. At this rate the month before Zachary and Serenity’s wedding will be chapter 20,314. Remember them? This will never be finished if we quit paying.
I paid good money for this book just to find out that it’s not finished and I will have to pay more money when you decide to finish it.
Are you going to finish this story or just let everyone who paid to read it hanging?
Are you going to finish this story or just leave everyone guessing as to how it ends?
I think you are a thief. You stole my money and now you want me to wait for the next edition of the book. How much will that cost me. If I could find out who you are I’d sue you for the thief that you are.
The Kevin/Hayden storyline is 1. Improbable AT BEST 2. Creepy 3. BORING Send us a notification when you get back to Callum, Zach, and Remy. Speaking of Remy, a fatal car accident for Mrs. Stone would be a nice touch.
Author are you paying attention no body cares about this relationship it is boring!!! I have no interest in Hayden at all, it just so weird, did she planned on never getting married , why is she so obsessed with being a man. If she really wants to be a man have her be transgender character or someth
What about Duncan and liberty story you spent so much time and Kevin and this wannabe man and yet she still behaving like a man. Move on to serenity and Zachary. Let serenity get pregnant. Let Duncan be happy let liberty give him a chance to love her. Omg stop with this nonsense
Why in the world did I spend such huge amount of money for an incomplete book? I bought a complete novel yesterday for $3.99. I can't continue waiting for this one no matter how good the story lines are.
This is boring move the story line on and don’t rehash past lives
PLEASE SWITCH TO ONE OF THE OTHER COUPLES!
