Semua Bab The Billionaire's Plump Chef : Bab 81 - Bab 90

Jordan It was barely midday, and I was reviewing the footages of one of the three suspects. Arnold had one, which he had been reviewing for the past hour, and so far, had not found anything incriminating. There were lapses in the videos, periods when this person could not be accounted for, but nothing really was incriminating.It was getting a bit discouraging because I thought I would have had answers by now. I was still sure that there was a bit of foul play in what had happened, but I needed evidence.I pushed my chair backwards and leaned against the backrest, taking a deep sigh. Staring at the computer screen for prolonged hours always gave me a headache, and one was already growing at my temple. I rubbed the spot gently and tapped intermittently on the handle of the chair.I was looking at the files and the CCTV of Lizzie, the same lady that had accused Arnold of getting her pregnant a few days ago. I didn't know why, but I had this strong hunch that I needed to look closely in

Marie Sue Lucy was in the sitting room, smiling at me when I arrived. I felt so exhausted, as though I had been carrying a lot of weight on my shoulder the entire day. Meanwhile, I had just been moving around the city, aimlessly.“You have a package,” she announced, beaming.And then I saw the parcel beside her.“A package?” I said, stepping in.I pulled off my shoes, placed them on the rack beside the door, and walked into the sitting room.“It’s from Jordan,” she announced before I got to it.There was a box that contained something I didn’t know, a bouquet of flowers, and then a note that had been written by Jordan, with his name at the bottom. If only he knew what a gesture like this had done for me on such a shitty day that I was having.I picked up the flowers and inhaled them, closing my eyes. Once again, the world felt like a beautiful place.“I wish someone could send me flowers too,” Lucy said. “Someone as hot and romantic and rich as Jordan Kensington,” she added. “You hav

KylieI liked to watch the mansion late at night when everyone was asleep and the dim lights glowed in the surrounding. I leaned against the window, my wine glass pressed to my lips, taking slow sips as I looked around and imagined the changes I would make as soon as this estate fell into my hands. All that stood between me and owning everything that me and my son deserved was just an old man and his stupid mistakes.But I didn't want to think about Arnold tonight, nor his mistakes or everything he has been doing to annoy me. Tonight, I wanted to imagine a future that I felt was not very far away. I imagined Stephen playing in the compound, showing off his friends everywhere. I imagined him as a teenager, and even as a young adult. And I was pleased. A smile spread on my lips. I was still in the middle of my imagination when I saw the silhouette of a woman.I could have ignored it and basically dismissed it as one of the security men. But this looked different, and it caught my attent

Marie Sue I groaned and rolled onto my side on the bed. Finally, I got to the edge. I stretched my hand, with my eyes still closed, and reached for my phone, turning off the alarm.It was not an alarm to get me ready for work. I was still not yet back at work in person. The alarm was a reminder that it was one day to Mr. Xing’s deadline.I lay back on my back and closed my eyes for a few seconds. Then I opened them and stared at the ceiling. Beside me, the bed was empty, meaning Lucy had probably slept over at Chad’s place after their date last night.I pushed myself into a sitting position and remained on the bed. I wasn’t sure what to do. I had never been more confused than this before.Finally, I was able to pull myself into the shower, wash my hair, brush my teeth, and basically prepare as though I was going to work. After cleaning up, I put on some house clothes and walked to the kitchen to fix some light breakfast.Just as I stepped into the sitting room, the door opened, and L

Arnold I was hurrying towards the room with some items in my hand when I saw Kennedy walking down the corridor opposite me, looking around, obviously for the room Steven was in.I handed the materials over to the escort and directed him to the room, and then walked towards Kennedy, stopping him in his tracks.“What the fuck are you doing here?” I asked.I saw relief appear on his face as he saw me.“I was looking for you.”I pulled him away from the corridor into the closest safe space I could find.“Looking for me for what, Kennedy?”He clenched his jaw.“How could you keep this away from me? I find out that my son is sick from strangers.”I bit my lips hard. Kennedy was trying my patience in every way.I pushed the door to the room closed.“You are violating the terms of the contract, Kennedy. We said zero contact. Why do you feel we have to tell you anytime our son is sick? And you coming here every time he falls ill is just going to raise suspicions.”“I don't care,” he yelled. “
