"Boss." The other person told him, "There’s a strange phenomenon to report. CEO Kingston has moved into Clearwater Bay. He works there during the day and stays there at night."
"..." A trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
The other person also said, "This is absolutely true. Finn Morgan even delivered a computer and office supplies to him."
Something flickered in Anton Miller’s eyes, "I got it." Hanging up the phone, he thought to himself, is it because something happened to Kristina Kingston?
Is that why Justin hasn’t paid attention to him these days?
Is she critically ill? Or a failed suicide attempt?
Clearwater Bay, upstairs.
Mary brought two lunch boxes up; the combination was quite sumptuous, with vegetables and meat.
Mia Lane wore a mask, so she didn’t want to go downstairs to eat. She and Ian Shelby resolved meal times in the pharmaceutical research room.
Since Kristina Kingston demanded that the door remain open, Mia would usually go back to the bedroom to eat. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novel~fire~net
After Mary left, she was about to leave with the lunch box when Justin Kingston closed the room door and locked it.
He was waiting for Cora Yates to remove her mask and stepped toward her, watching her with great interest.
Mia Lane faced his gaze and calmly removed the mask.
Justin Kingston finally saw her again after ages; she was as beautiful as ever. Seeing the blush on her cheeks, she quickly turned to open the lunch box.
The way she ate silently was adorable.
Ian Shelby picked up a piece of meat and placed it in her bowl, "Eat more, replenish some protein."
This made Justin Kingston’s smile freeze slightly! He stepped forward and directly pushed Ian aside, "Can’t you stay away from her? Once the mask is off, she’s no longer your mentor; she’s my wife!"
"..." Ian Shelby apologized for once again knocking over the jealousy jar.
Mia turned her eyes, the warmth in her smile slowly disappeared, and she seriously looked at him, "Have you noticed how childish you are today? Especially childish!"
"Really?" Justin Kingston placed his hands in his pockets, thought seriously, "Why don’t I feel that way? I’m concerned about my mother’s health, the doctor I invited with a billion, and supervising the work—is that not normal?"
As he put it, it was very normal! Extremely normal!
Downstairs in the living room, Monica Usher sat with Kristina Kingston on the sofa, sipping afternoon tea and chatting.
She really didn’t want to leave.
"Monica, since Justin hasn’t been in the company these days, I’ll need you to take care of things there," Kristina Kingston said with a smile that could be felt even with half a mask on.
"As the Vice President of the group, it’s my duty." She promised, "Even without your special instructions, I will do even better."
"Monica, have you been designing any works recently?" This was a concern for her work status.
She was happy to share, "Whenever I have time, after all, it’s a hobby."
"You truly are a talented individual." Kristina Kingston glanced at the clock on the wall, also reluctant, "It’s getting late; you should be heading back to the company, right? You’ve been out for quite a while."
Her voice was pleasant, "Okay, then should I go up and say goodbye to him?"
"No need," Kristina Kingston said, "That would just delay your time, and there are surely many things at the company."
So, she stood up, "Then I’ll be off, take care, ma’am."
Kristina Kingston escorted Monica Usher to the courtyard and to the car, advising her, "Drive safely, and come often. Clearwater Bay will always welcome you."
"Alright, goodbye, ma’am." She waved her hand.
As the car drove out of the yard, Monica Usher felt like she was walking on clouds, her whole being felt light.
Her lips curled up in an uncontrollable smile.
As she drove, she hummed a tune.
"Mia Lane, you’re trash!" she scoffed, "Can’t win the favor of your mother-in-law, and now Justin isn’t even returning home. Let’s see how long you can flaunt in Emerald Cove!"
She decided that from now on, every day she would visit Mrs. Kingston and Justin under the pretext of reporting work, to strengthen their relationship!
