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

Going to stop reading this book and close out the G app.
I thank this is not good
After all this shenanigans I only look for books that are completed
Send money back. Makes sick Sue
Author hasn’t updated in 5-6 days now but is updating their other book! This is SO Infuriating! I just want my money back!!
You and me both
I think this is an awful way to do business. It appears I am paying $9.99 a month and I do not appreciate another book being showed down my throat and not releasing episodes of the book I am paying for.
This happened to me if you look closely they have a weekly subscription and I had accidently chose that I think instead of the one time deal. I was pissed
What happened why no more chapters?????
If your writer can’t keep up get a new one I’m over it as are most
if your sick or ill , just let's know
spent all this money and no end. what the he'll. they need to refund oy money. going to contact consumer protection.
I think at least we deserve an update just even with and explanation of what is happening and we are not getting any updates.
This chat is more interesting than this book At least we know there is someone here
No updates in like 4 days! Since I read last 4-5 days ago I thought there’d be more chapters and reading time. Such a bunch of sh*t, 2 more chapters in all that time. Sick amount of money for this. I will be looking into legal ways to receive compensation plus! A year and alot of money for nothing
Wow how unfair so many days and nothing.Shame on you writers no consideration for us paying readers. Just don’t care.
I absolutely agree with you! By the time the second chapter is out, you have already lost all your bonus points! I can’t afford to keep paying every month, if you don’t put new chapters to read! PLEASE GET OUT MORE CHAPTERS NOW! I’m not going to read anymore after this one is over! Takes too long!!
I agree with Marlen Bevan-Hacker. You have to give an end to the story as soon as possible.
No Chapters have been released ino over 5 orb6 days
Still no updates? Really irresponsible company.
I’ve told people not to get involved it is too costly and never ends so disappointing
If this author has decided that writing is not what he/she wants to do, then just stop! How the heck are we supposed to remember details from eon t eon between segments????!!!!!
Since there based in Singapore there’s really no one to contact. With that said we need to let everyone know not to buy in to this crap and that should slow the sales of their product here in the US I’ve already started telling everyone not to buy this crap
There is no where to complain
Where do we go to complain about this crap?
This is bull shit!
Can’t we sue this company
all she does is write short chapter to get more money. then when I stop reading in-between a chapter the roll it backward to charge more money. never will read another one.
Yes this is the last book I’m reading on this site good novel is really not that good they need to finish books before they over them on the site
Ok it’s been long enough with no updates and please more than just 1 chapter getting pretty tired of this
