After assisting Tania with her dire situation, Queen and the girl exited the ladies’ room but Zack was nowhere to be found. Queen knew that the smart and sensible boy would wait by the door if he was done using the bathroom. Therefore, Zack must still be in the bathroom for some reason. Five minutes had passed but he still did not appear from the men’s room. “Excuse me, sir, could you find out if there’s a four-year-old boy inside the men’s room?” Anxious, Queen noticed a person exiting the men’s room and immediately requested for his help. The cry for help blurted out of her mouth before she had a clear look at that man’s face. She was taken aback when she lifted her head to meet his gaze. Why him? Why did it have to be him?! “Sure.” That man agreed readily to the request without paying attention to the shocking expression on Queen’s face. He reentered the men’s room. Queen stayed rooted to the spot and felt her body quivering uncontrollably. She never would have thought to en

“Mommy, you lied to me again. You told me that you’re coming to pick me up but you didn’t show.” Tania's irritated voice blasted through the speaker the moment she answered the phone.“Darling, I’m so sorry.” Cherry felt a tightening feeling in her chest. She was really upset and could not help but curse silently at Larry. It was all his fault that she could not see her darling and it was also because of him that she broke her little girl’s heart.“I don’t need your apology. I want you, Mommy.” Tania could not hold it anymore and began to cry her heart out.“Alright, alright, Mommy will come over right now. Mommy will be there soon.” Cherry felt her heart shattering into million pieces at the sound of her daughter’s sobbing.“Husband, is your meeting going to take some time? Can I go shopping while I wait?” Cherry hung up the call and sent a text message to Larry.“K,” Larry answered within a matter of seconds with the shortest reply possible, but it was an affirmative reply nonethele

“You should’ve hung up the phone the second you realized that you got the wrong number. How many times have I told you that you shouldn’t speak to strangers? What did you say to him? What if he’s a bad guy that’s trying to lure information out of you? So he can come breaking into our house or abducting you to threaten us for money? Hang up the phone right now.” Queen portrayed the role of a philistine housewife to perfection. “OK,” Zack answered passively and finally hung up the call. After being bombed savagely by the reproach on the phone, Larry narrowed his eyes as he stared at the screen of his phone. He was convinced there was something fishy about this. “Phew, we were so close to being caught.” The minute Zack hung up the phone, Queen's legs turned to jelly and she quickly laid down on the floor. She regarded Cherry and enquired, “What do you think? Will he buy it?” “Not entirely.” Cherry’s expression darkened. Based on her understanding of Larry, she reckoned it would take

The throbbing pain in Larry’s stomach grew intense. He never thought of restricting her actions hence he did not demand a reason for her behavior. “President, is it your gastritis again? Should I head over to the pharmacy to get you some medicine?” After Cherry got out of the car, Secretary Leo finally looked over his shoulder to enquire about his concern. Now that it was just him and the secretary inside the car, Larry pressed down on his upper abdomen forcefully, hoping to relieve the tormenting pain. He winced upon hearing Secretary Leo’s suggestion. “Maybe in a bit.” “Actually, President, there’s no need to keep it a secret from Madam. On the other hand, she can take care of you if she learns about it.” Secretary Leo was aware of the President’s intention but he could not fathom the reason behind concealing this secret. Take care of him? He had never been taken care of since his mother’s departure. He had always been fighting alone in this life. Throughout all these years, h

Lena, too, revealed a mocking smile. She thought it would be tricky to deal with this woman but it seemed like the latter had only been putting on a false pretense. Cherry lifted her head to meet Lena’s gaze and she enunciated each syllable slowly, “But, you are…” She paused in her tracks and raised her eyebrows before speaking again at a slow pace, “Unfit to do so.” “What did you say?” Lena’s face changed as a whole range of emotions flashed across it. She had never been more insulted in her whole life. No one dared to treat her like this before even if she was only a newbie model. Besides, she was Lebron’s woman. “Do you know who she is? She’s Boss Lebron’s woman.” Sandra was Lena’s agent. The former steamed up at how things had turned out and immediately brought up their personal relationship with Lebron. Somewhere in the corner, Lebron narrowed his eyes as they revealed a cold emotion. Cherry twisted her lips into a sardonic smile. “I don’t care if you’re Lebron’s woman, eve
