Chapter 8 Don't Come Home

Author: The Kitten
Shona was startled and jumped up from the ground. "Who are you? What are you doing?"

Only then did Laura notice Chris, who was walking towards the store.

Chris walked up to Laura and noticed the red swollen mark on her face. His eyes darkened as he asked, "She did that?"

Although Chris didn't make things clear, Laura still knew who he was referring to.

On the way to the store, Assistant Jacobs had already told Chris what happened. The person causing trouble seemed to be his mother-in-law.

When Chris turned to look at Shona, Shona was also sizing him up and down. When she saw Chris's face, her eyes lit up.

"You're the man who married my daughter?"

Last time, when Laura showed Shona her marriage certificate, Shona saw what Chris looked like.

Chris's looks would be the kind that one would remember after only taking one glance.

However, Chris had a straight face and was emitting a cold aura. It was obvious that he didn't want to talk to Shona.

"Throw her out of the store and don't allow her to come anywhere near the Jacobs Group in the future!" Chris said softly but domineeringly.

The bodyguards nodded and began dragging Shona out of the convenience store.

Shona began to panic and then shouted, "Do you know who I am? I'm Laura's mother. This means that I'm your mother-in-law. How dare you treat me like this? Let me go!"

Shona was infuriated. At first, the bodyguards didn't know who Shona was, but when they heard that she was Chris's mother-in-law, they subconsciously loosened their grip.

This allowed Shona to break free. "Laura Walker, how dare you be so unfilial? Now that you're married, you actually dare to tell your husband to treat your mother so badly?"

Laura didn't want to drag Chris into all of this. She took a deep breath and looked at the guards not so far away.

She knew that the bodyguards belonged to the Jacobs Group. They were right next to the entrance of the Jacobs Group as well. If Shona did anything or said anything, it would probably cause trouble for the Jacobs Group.

Realizing what Laura was thinking about from the look in her eyes, Chris nodded at the bodyguards and the bodyguards backed away.

Shona saw what Chris did and rolled her eyes. Her tone suddenly changed and walked up to Laura with a smile on her face. "Laura, what does your husband do?"

She was surprised that Chris could order so many people around.

Laura looked at Shona and knew what she was thinking.

"He works at the Security Department of the Jacobs Group." Laura decided not to reveal Chris's real identity.

She knew that Shona was a snob. If Shona found out that Chris was the CEO's assistant of the Jacobs Group, Shona would definitely make a lot of requests.

Shona's expectations were immediately let down after hearing Laura's words. She felt that Chris was just a guard who wore smart clothes.

She opened her mouth and was about to cause Laura trouble again, but that was when she saw Chris standing in between them.

"If you keep on causing trouble and disturb the order around here, I'll put you behind bars." Chris's face was dark and cold. It was obvious that he had run out of patience.

"You..." Shona was so angry that she didn't know what to say, but she was still quite scared of being put behind bars. In the end, she glared at Laura. "Just you wait. If you think you're fine now, then don't ever come home!"

As soon as she said those words, Shona turned on her heels and left.

Laura breathed a sigh of relief inwardly, but her heart then began to ache more than ever.

She had convinced herself not to care about Shona's attitude, but Shona's doings would still make her feel very uncomfortable every single time.

Chris signaled the bodyguards to leave. He turned and looked at Laura's face before heading towards the entrance of the store.

He took a bottle of water from the fridge and placed it lightly on Laura's face.

Laura took the bottle and accidentally touched Chris's hand, but she didn't notice. "Thank you."

Chris took his hand back and placed it in his pocket. He squeezed the pulp of his fingers and said, "In the future, if anyone causes any trouble, you can always give me a call." After a short pause, he added, "Such actions will affect the normal operation of our company."

    The two children attracted Laura's attention and she just watched them play.The two children looked a little alike. The boy was obviously a little older than the girl. They were most likely brother and sister.The little girl noticed Laura's gaze, so she walked up to her. "Are you looking at us?"The little boy noticed his sister standing in front of two strangers. He then rushed over and stood between the girl, and Laura and Chris with an alarming look on his face."Don't worry. We won't hurt you." Laura squatted down so that she was the same height as the two children."I think I know what she wants, Owen," the little girl suddenly said with a serious face."What does she want?" The little boy's face softened when he looked at the little girl."She's looking at us, so she must be wanting to play with us!" the girl said innocently and then looked at Laura. "Am I right?"Laura squatted down and pinched the girl's face with a smile. "Yes, you are! I love children who are cute l

    "Harry and I are planning to go to the beach after this, do you want to come with us?" Shannon asked Laura.After giving it some thought, Laura nodded. "Sure!"The three of them waited for about a quarter of an hour after the meal before Chris came to pick them up."Have you finished?" Chris was asking everyone but his eyes were fixed on Laura."Yes, we have. I have to admit, the food here is actually quite nice," said Harry.He seemed to not have had enough as he placed some more food in his mouth."Do you want some more? We're in no rush anyway."Laura was worried that Harry didn't have enough to eat."No, I'm full. Let's head to the beach." The thought of going to the beach and enjoying the night view with Shannon made Harry very excited."What beach?" asked Chris. He was a little puzzled."Shannon just said that they were going to the beach and asked me if I wanted to join them. It felt like a good idea to me so I agreed. Do you want to come as well?" Laura turned to look

    Lucas and Dawn waited for a while but their food still wasn't served."What's taking them so long?" mumbled Dawn."They're probably busy. We don't have any other plans tonight, there's no rush."Lucas picked up his phone and began playing a game. At the same time, he poured a glass of water for Dawn. "Here, have some water., it'll ease the hunger"Dawn was rendered speechless.She picked up the glass, took a sip of water, and then began looking around. That was when she noticed a table of a man and two women receiving their food as soon as they sat down.Seeing that, Dawn shouted, "Waitress!"A girl in her early 20s quickly walked over to her. "How may I help?""When will our food be served? We've already been waiting for a long time." Dawn was a little dissatisfied."I'm sorry, Miss. The kitchen is already preparing your dishes and the food will be served very soon," the waitress said apologetically."What do you mean by that? We've already been waiting for ages. Not only th

    "Mr. Summers, Mr. Scholfield is waiting for you in the meeting room.""Okay."Nathan tidied his desk, picked up a file and headed towards the meeting room.As soon as he walked in, he saw Lucas sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed.Lucas had a lazy temperament and his lips were curved into a mischievous smile. He looked at his watch and said, "Mr. Summers, you're three minutes late."Nathan was used to Lucas's behavior, so he just looked at Lucas indifferently. "Here's the contract. Check to see if you have any problems with it."Lucas sat up, took the contract, and flicked through it casually. "Where's the pen?""Aren't you going to read it more carefully?""I don't think that Mr. Summers is going to trick me, right?" asked Lucas. His voice was casual and his hand was getting ready to hold a pen.Nathan smiled, took out a pen from a drawer, and signed his name on the contract before passing it to Lucas.Lucas held the pen tightly in his hand as he signed his name on the

    Nathan waited in the police station with Amelia.About an hour later, two police officers brought a man in black and wearing a baseball cap in front of the two of them.There were wounds on his face as well. It was obvious that he had been beaten up.One of the officers passed a delicate purse to Amelia. "Miss Summers, is this your purse?"Amelia's eyes lit up. "Yes, that's the purse I lost.""This is the person who stole your purse, Miss Summers. What do you want us to do with him?" the other officer pointed at the man and asked.After giving it some thought, Amelia said, "I've just checked my purse and nothing's missing. I'll let him off this time.""Looks like you're in luck. Quick, thank Miss Summers for her kindness.""Thank you so much, Miss Summers!""Alright, just try not to steal things in the future.

    "Get someone to find out why Amelia went to the police station today." Nathan gave the order."Yes, Mr. Summers. I'll get right on it." Dominic nodded and went out of the room.After giving it some thought, Nathan still felt that he should head to the police station in person to ask Amelia what she was doing.When Nathan arrived at the police station, Amelia had just finished talking to Jack."Amelia!" Nathan called out.Amelia stopped walking and turned around. She then looked at Nathan with a face full of surprise."Nathan, what are you doing here?" Amelia smiled and walked over to Nathan."I came to check if Jack had said anything else. I've also heard that you came to the police station instead of to work, so I thought I'd come to give you a lift on the way back."Amelia nodded with a smile. "Okay, I'll head back home with you once I've found my purse.""What purse?" Nathan felt a little puzzled."I was going out with a few friends, but I lost my purse on my way. There we
