Chapter 5621
"Of course, an apology is needed. Otherwise, Laurence might come after us, and we'll both be in trouble."Jolie frowned and said, "If we have to bow our heads and apologize over something like this, why did you tell me to go over and provoke them in the first place? Weren't you just putting me in danger?""Were you scared?""What if I actually do replace Noelle? What do I have to be afraid of then?"The position of the lady of the Longbottom family was simply too tempting for Jolie to give up.Besides, after seeing Laurence in person, she had genuinely fallen for him at first sight. She dreamed of becoming his woman. She would even be willing to be his mistress.However, Laurence probably would not keep a mistress around. She heard that the elders around him were all devoted to their partners, and having grown up under their influence, he was bound to be just as faithful.Once a man like that fell in love with her, he would remain devoted for the rest of his life, and she would
Chapter 5620
Roxy watched as Jolie drank the coffee and asked, "What exactly did you say to Noelle when you met her? Were you too arrogant? Did you get on her nerves? Was that why she refused to talk to you and had you thrown out instead?"Having dealt with Noelle for several years, Roxy knew her reasonably well.Noelle was cold and could seem indifferent to everyone, but she was a woman with principles. If she had agreed to meet Jolie, she would not have ordered someone to throw Jolie out without saying anything.Jolie must have been too arrogant. Roxy specifically told her to talk to Noelle, explain that she was in love with Laurence, and say she wanted to compete with Noelle for his love fairly and squarely. That would have been enough to get under Noelle's skin.However, Jolie looked down on Noelle, and because she was Roxy's best friend, she probably treated Noelle however she wanted. Someone with Noelle's temperament would never tolerate such disrespect."Ahem…"Jolie choked on her coff
Chapter 5619
There was a flash of hatred in Roxy's eyes.She hated Laurence and Noelle. She despised them more than anyone else.Laurence had ruined her reputation, while Noelle was the object of her jealousy. However, Roxy was certain that she and Jolie were not the only women in Havenmill who envied Noelle.Sometimes Roxy even resented her father and, especially, her grandfather. If he had been capable of carrying out such a massive scheme 30 years ago, why did he not make sure to finish the job? If he had, Laurence and Noelle would not be here now. Instead, Roxy would be the Longbottom heiress, the most prominent young lady in Havenmill.30 years ago, Laurence had only been a one-year-old child. Even though his bodyguard and nanny protected him, they all eventually died. Yet, her grandfather failed to find Laurence. Her grandfather had later suspected that Laurence was the adopted son raised by the Johnson family's eldest son's wife, but he could not prove it. Eventually, they lost all t
Chapter 5618
The entire Dorsey family supported Jolie in challenging Noelle. They thought Noelle was cold and masculine, lacking the softness and femininity a woman should have. On the other hand, Jolie was attractive, and her family background was far superior to Noelle's. Laurence simply had not been exposed to enough gentle, soft-spoken women. Once he met one, he would realize that a sweet, tender woman was better suited to a powerful man like him. Noelle was far too tough.If Jolie could win Laurence's heart and become the Longbottom family's matriarch, the Dorsey family's status would rise along with hers, and the benefits would be unimaginable.Roxy believed that if her best friend could win Laurence over, her own family would no longer have to live in fear. Their standing within the family would remain the same, and the future matriarch would also listen to her.It was the ambitions of several people that had driven Jolie to make this visit."Where are you? Let's talk in person."Joli
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
Chapter 5616
"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

This book used to get daily updates. Now it’s sporadically. What is going on.
Good Novel is a huge rip off it has cost me a thousand Australian dollars so far for 3 months I had auto debit but didn’t get the bonuses never reading another novel through these rip offs again they should be reported
Stil no updates? Oh come on!
Don’t tell us nothing else about how any couple met Duncan/Liberty or why he had an accident or that Hanks parents are still ass holes. Tell us about why Lawrence is so important to Mr Longbothom Will Liberty get her in hesitance back will the Buchanans have Quinn as a daughter in law GEESH
Can we get our money back
Come on update married at first sight this book is going on and on and
I won’t pay another penny I’ll just don’t care what happens to these phony characters Repeating over and over every thing enough already
Please finish the book I will not start another book unless u finish this one
It’s been two days where are the chapters!! BS. BS
You watch the author will post a new chapter tomorrow and it will be repeating the same stuff over and over. We’ve heard about their backgrounds a hundred times. Get on with the storyline so we can get finished reading this book. I won’t read another book from here again. I’ll stick with my kindle!
You obviously don’t won’t us to read this book anymore so why don’t you end it. You took our money so now you live up to your product
I am sincerely tired of this app. their tricks on all their books, delay in updates and so short chapters just to make more money. too bad and irritating.
You all are rip offs,finish the damn book already. You only want to make money.Stop repeating to get more money .Very irresponsible.So mad at you all. Make me sick.
Good novel it isn’t rip off yes
This is my first and last book and I won’t recommend this site to anyone ever!!!
They still haven’t updated this book?? Why don’t they just finish it already. I won’t be reading another book
i agree i spend to much money
I totally agree
Again, there are no updates, and when you do, it's 5 chapters a day for a few days & just repeating what we've already read. I'm not recommending this book club to anyone & I wish I could have my money back. Think I'll go back to paper back, cheaper, and gets to the point and end quicker.
How are we supposed to read for 30 minutes when there aren’t any characters to read
I totally agree with you
this book should have been finished before you put it up for us to read. I have never spent this much on a book. This story needs to be completed fast.
the same nonsense can it get any worse what a waste of our money
it's the same s**t every week no update i dont think its fair that you keep taken our money for a unfinished book, and repeat every thing in nearly every chapter what we already know. i'd definitely not recommend this app to anyone and wish id never started reading this bloody book now.
Why keep repeating the same things? Hope u don’t think it is a good way to get NB us to pay more. U might loose many readers instead.
FIRE THE AUTHOR and get someone else to finish the book. Everyone is sick of this. And you want us to invite our friends to join this poor excuse of a book club. If we did we would have no friends left.
Here we go no update
No update no update yet
More of the same shit.
