Chapter 5617
Jolie tried to run after Noelle, but the two receptionists stopped her."Move!"Jolie glared at them and snapped, "Do you even know who I am? Roxy Longbottom is my best friend! If you take Noelle's side, I'll have Roxy fire both of you!"The receptionists did not budge. In fact, one of them said politely, "Ms. Dorsey, Ms. Noelle doesn't wish to speak with you. Please leave."Right now, Laurence was the one running the company, not Manny. Although Manny still held the title of COO, everyone knew it was merely a transitional arrangement. He would soon be returning and leaving the company.The new CEO certainly would not allow Manny to stay for long. His era was over. Roxy's name no longer carried the weight it once had.Jolie was merely Roxy's friend. Even if Roxy herself showed up, it would not make a difference."'Ms. Noelle'? She's just a bodyguard! You don't need to be afraid of her. What's so scary about her?"One of the receptionists could not help but retort, "If you thi

"If she’s in love with Mr. Laurence, she can confess to him directly. Why does she want to see me? I'm not going to help her pursue him."Noelle said coldly, "Turn her away. I'm busy."Then, after thinking it over, she changed her mind. "Actually, never mind. I'll see her myself."The visitor was Jolie Dorsey. The Dorsey family was a minor wealthy family in Havenmill, nowhere near the level of an elite family like the Longbottoms.Noelle, however, changed her mind because she remembered that Jolie was one of Roxy's close friends. The Dorsey family had previously done business with the Longbottoms, and it was Dorsey's persistent efforts to curry favor with Roxy that had secured those business opportunities for her family.So Jolie was interested in Laurence?Noelle was skeptical. She suspected Roxy had deliberately arranged for her friend to pursue Laurence just to make things difficult for Noelle. If Jolie managed to win him over, that would be ideal, but even if she failed, she

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

better not be a false alarm or i’m deleting this app cost $$&&&
yep your right annoying as hell when you get bugger all chapters a day ...
Have not even been able to read today…. Sorriest app that I have ever opened! Can’t wait for my points to be gone so that I can delete this app and never open it again!
Can you please put the rest of chapters out so we can finish you have a part 2 coming out if so hurry hurry hurry up with us book so you can get us all hooked on the next one
I agree totally ... we should just be able to read the whole book and move on to the next if we choose to ..this app is going to get bad ratings from other people
the book isn't done. I've only been able to find the chapter that opens the 2nd restaurant for liberty. no babies, no weddings, nothing to speak of yet
she's pregnant
I really don’t understand why the author cannot release the rest of this book. I have been reading this book for weeks and love the story, but with only getting four chapters a day is taking a lot from the story for me. It cost a lot to read the book and we should be able to read it all at one time.
Finally and yet you end it here for the night
Please! Let it be more chapters!!!
Twin girls please
Yes she is pregnant
ohh God why do you do this. now I'm gonna lost sleep to find out if she's pregnant. I hope she is I'll look forward in reading about this on her finally pregnancy. Thank you
lt will be another false alarm
with the money I have spent, it makes no sense that the next chapters are not available. I just spent another 25.00 and can't read the next chapters. when will they be available?
and..... over $200 later, still nothing new! we need more chapters with MUCH less recap every chapter. Anyone who is still reading knows what's going on with the characters
she is but they haven't finished the book
Just when the story is getting interesting you cut us off. Can’t you give us more chapters? We want to celebrate with serenity.
