Chapter 5623
Noelle stepped away and returned to her seat, gathering up the ledgers.She had nearly reviewed them all. If Laurence was free over the weekend, they could visit the secondary residence and settle the accounts with Stuart.Laurence, on the other hand, did not return to his own chair. Instead, he leaned against the front of his desk, holding his glass in his right hand. "Come in," he said in a low voice as he took a slow sip of water.The office door opened, and his secretary walked in. He stopped about ten feet away from Laurence and said respectfully, "Mr. Longbottom, Ms. Roxy Longbottom is here."Had Roxy come to demand justice for her best friend?Laurence hummed and said, "Let her in. Tell her I only have 10 minutes before my break is over. That's all the time she has."The secretary acknowledged Laurence’s instructions and left.A moment later, Roxy entered. She came alone, carrying two shopping bags."Master."She was no longer part of Longbottom Corporation, so she ad

"What did she say to you?"Laurence asked eagerly, as if the whole thing had nothing to do with him and he was just there to hear the latest gossip."Not much. She was rude and deliberately provocative. As you suspected, it was most certainly Roxy who sent her to make trouble for me. She was incredibly disrespectful, so I walked away and told reception to call security and have her escorted out."She's not allowed to set foot inside Longbottom Corporation again. Does she really think having Roxy as her backing gives her the right to come here whenever she pleases?"Laurence applauded her and praised, "Well done, Noelle! That's exactly what you should've done. Be firm. If anyone else comes looking for trouble, do the same thing. Have security throw them out and make sure they never set foot inside Longbottom Corporation again."Longbottom Corporation is under my control now. You're my fiancée, and one day you'll be the CEO's wife. You have every right and authority to do that."No

"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

I stop reading for the story keep on repeating Please let me enjoy the story
Marjorie Works made an excellent observation. Maybe Chloe could be deaf. That’s why she doesn’t cry but then again, Connor could be deaf, and that’s why he does loud excessive crying? ...
I hate that we can only get three chapters at a time… it’s making it hard to follow…
Book is being written, I have looked everywhere for the book.
They do the same to or say there new chapters when there is nothing posted that I have not read.
Is this book still being written or is it finished and they only release bits at a time? I HATE the way they’re publishing snips I just want to sit down and get absorbed in my book - not 5 minutes per day. Ugh
I really loved this book but now it’s just too much of nothing really. Some things are repetitive and just 3 chapters of the same thing. I have been waiting for the Fisher drama to end but it looks like it’s not going to happen anytime soon. Please give us better things than all these other useless
you keep messaging me that the author wrote something and there's nowhere to be found why do you say it
Again and notice of pages that I’ve missed that are available to be read when I have already read everything that’s out there now whoever this author is needs to be reading these comments or are making her chapter shorter so she’ll know when they’ve been read or he whoever
This was 3 chapters of nothing. What exciting about feeding babies. Then repeated junk that have read over and over Does the author have writer’s block. These 3 chapters should have been trashed! Get on with storyline with some worth!
What’s with the Blank Page 10… Let’s get on with the situation in Jensburg…!! We Don’t need all this Fill in Dribble, if anything then focus on Lawrence and his Family’s legacy… Come On Already… Serens baby Should have Been Here…!!
I get more out of reading everyone’s comments than I have in the last month. Please more chapters.
Makes me want to write my own book of nothing and get paid for shit work.
No need to write all the stupid details. Now is going to be about Sugar, hello, we all know who she is and all her other personalities. PLEASE DON NOT REPITE. We are the ones wasting time and money.
Seriously no one needs all of this boring drivel about the babies! No one cares!! Move the story along. Wrap up the fishers storyline and the Longbottom/Laurence storyline and let us walk away from this never ending tedious book!
Boring again tried of hearing about the babies. Get yo the point .
This author is terrible and cunning. Keep on writing nonsense and have readers paying more and more. What a sucker.
It’s gotten so boring and just fillers. I’m not going to read it for awhile then skip to an area that has substance….. if I even come back to it……
Do you read the comments that people are posting? If so, why are you not responding ? This book started great now is getting boring each day.
Who cares about how and what the twins drink? The author needs to bring the Fisher saga to an acceptable conclusion. It would be nice to get 10-15 chapters at once so everything is explained and finished at one time!
More chapters of “nothing “!
Nothing new. How long do we have to wait for some new info. Another month.
