Clearwater Bay, inside a certain vintage mansion.
Kristina Kingston, wearing long white gloves, sat on the sofa, listening to her subordinate Jerry Garcia report while standing by the coffee table—
"Mr. Kingston took his wife to the amusement park today, stayed for about an hour from arrival to departure, and Mr. Kingston accompanied her on the roller coaster."
"What?!" Mrs. Kingston’s heart tightened, "He’s been afraid of heights since he was a child! How could he go on a roller coaster?" She looked at him with concern and asked, "How is Justin? Is he okay?"
"He threw up afterward and needed a while to recover."
"..." Mrs. Kingston was both distressed and jealous.
He actually put himself in such a sorry state for that village woman! Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novel•fire.net
After a while, Jerry spoke again, "He received a call and then went to the police station because Anton Miller got into a fight, and Mr. Kingston went to deal with it."
Kristina Kingston, outraged, said, "Anton Miller still has contact with him?!" How could this be!
"..." Jerry’s silence gave her a definite answer.
"What on earth is he doing?!" she exclaimed, breathing heavily and with eyes sharp as a hawk, "Is he trying to give me a heart attack?! Who allowed him to clean up Anton Miller’s mess?!"
Jerry dared not breathe heavily, standing respectfully without daring to look directly into her eyes.
Mary walked over and whispered to him, "You should go now and continue following them."
Jerry looked at Mrs. Kingston, then turned and left.
"Give me the phone!" Kristina Kingston was very agitated, fuming with anger.
Mary advised, "Madam, since Mr. Kingston still has contact with him, one phone call won’t solve the problem. Perhaps you should first repair your relationship with Mr. Kingston."
Repair the relationship?
Kristina Kingston would love to.
But now the situation had developed unexpectedly; Mia Lane’s issue remained unresolved, Monica Usher was still left hanging, and now Anton Miller had emerged!
Taking Mia Lane to the amusement park, if Justin angers Monica Usher away, it would be a significant loss to the corporation.
"Then call Monica for me, it’s the weekend, and see if she has time to come over for dinner." Kristina Kingston calmed down, intending to reassure her.
If Monica Usher was pacified, things wouldn’t get worse.
Receiving Mary’s call, Monica Usher had just returned with Anton Ford from Ian Shelby’s place, and she would certainly accept the invitation promptly.
Before coming to Clearwater Bay, Monica Usher made a special trip to the mall to pick out gifts for Kristina Kingston, including scarves and tea leaves...
"You really didn’t have to bring something just because you’re visiting. No need to be so formal."
In the courtyard, Kristina Kingston personally poured her some water, "Monica, we haven’t seen each other for some time, have we?"
Monica Usher was dressed fashionably, her tassel earrings swaying dazzlingly in the sunlight, "Auntie, I’m sorry I haven’t visited you recently."
"No need to apologize, I know you’ve been busy with things for Justin."
Mentioning Justin, Monica Usher couldn’t help but recall the situation when he took Mia Lane to the amusement park, feeling a sharp pain in her heart, but a smile still hung on her lips, "It’s all necessary, I’ve been busy for myself too since I’m on the company’s payroll."
"Monica, Auntie truly likes you," Kristina Kingston expressed, "Even if that village woman gives birth to ten more children, I could never accept her."
Monica Usher maintained her smile, but even so, what could change?
Mia Lane had moved into Emerald Cove, living with Justin every day.
"Give Auntie a little more time," Kristina Kingston comforted her, "Auntie will surely make Justin change his mind; if soft methods don’t work, we’ll try hard ones."
"Thank you, Auntie." She was very moved, "Actually, I’ve been trying hard too, working overtime every day, hoping to design a project that satisfies him, hoping to win his heart."
Mia Lane received a call from Hailey Hale—
"Let’s have a cup of coffee together, please!!"
