When Lance leaned his whole body over, Yvette only blushed slightly and pushed him away to remind him.“This is the garage...”His hand clutched her wrist, and his lips fell on her body like rain, lingering and stoking her fire.“It doesn’t matter. It’s all the same...”His low voice was husky as if he was restraining a certain emotion. It was very compelling.Yvette was just putting on an act and immediately let go, no longer resisting.If it was all the same, then she did not mind it.No one would come over to disturb them anyway.......An unknown amount of time passed.Yvette felt like she was in a body of water. Drunkenness and exhaustion overwhelmed her, which made her unable to tell if this was a dream or reality.It felt like someone carried her in and went to a very warm place. There was water all around, and it felt very comfortable.She paddled the water with ease. Her consciousness blurred as if she was playing in the sea at a beach.Very faintly, she heard som
Yvette regretted saying that sentence. She originally thought that Lance was not that ferocious, but men really could not stand being provoked. Even during normal days, it would be two or three times at most.However, tonight, Yvette could not even close her eyes. They were fooling around until daybreak. Before dawn, Yvette could still hear the sound of their hearts beating violently.......Nicole was bored, especially under the double protection of Clayton and Floyd. Those two people basically took turns to watch her. Things like business trips and social engagements became a burden that completely fell on Kai.She was bored at home and got the approval to go to the office for three hours a day.Kai did not even have the chance to refuse, so he got to work at the last minute. However, under strong pressure, there were still a few social functions he was unable to go to.He took an invitation to Nicole’s office and helplessly held his forehead.“A party suddenly popped up in th
Nicole brushed the topic aside with a jest.Everyone naturally could not fuss over whether she answered the question or not. After all, Ms. Stanton’s temper was not to be messed with.Clayton hung up her coat and held her waist gently. In fact, he was carefully protecting her belly. She knew but did not say anything.Nicole paused and glanced at him.“I didn’t know you’d be here.”Clayton smiled. “It’s my fault for not telling you.”Nicole smiled and walked over to sit down. Clayton bent over to hold her chair. “Don’t drink later. Ms. Quimbey is over there...”Clayton pointed in a direction. Yvette was sitting among a group of women playing bridge. She clearly saw Nicole, but she could not bear to leave because of the good cards in her hands.She waved her hand to greet Nicole, who stood up with a smile.“Okay, you can go socialize. I’ll go find Yvette.”These people usually brought dates when socializing, but some people did not bring their wives. They all knew it in their h
Everyone fell silent. Nicole and Yvette exchanged a look. After years of tacit understanding, they suddenly understood that this woman was most likely talking about her own husband.The woman looked well taken care of, but she did not appear often in the circle. However, maybe they would know her name if she said it.Tina’s family was considered a little rich, but it was far behind the people present.However, the person she married was her childhood sweetheart, Zach, who was very good at doing business.Zach was considered a very capable person and rose to prominence in Atlanta’s business circle. He occupied a place in the science and technology sector in just a few years, so it made people envy and admire him.However, although he was capable, his private life was criticized.Back then, Tina and her husband got married because of their deep affection for each other. As a result, after the company got on the right track, Zach asked Tina to take a back seat and focus on the famil
Once they looked, sure enough, everyone could not help but laugh.“Ms. Stanton, you really are lucky! You actually won with those rotten cards!”“Oh dear, isn’t that lady just now going to regret it?”......The awkwardness just now was covered up by jokes and laughter.Nicole also acted as if she did not hear and brushed it over with a smile. The chips in front of her piled up. She smiled and waved at the woman who had given up her seat earlier.“You’re just in time. You can take over this round. Just use the chips as you please. I’m going to look for Clayton.”Nicole stood up as she spoke, not dragging her feet at all.Yvette looked at Nicole and also stood up with a smile. “I’m leaving too, lest my man says I’m not doing my job.”She walked over and took Nicole’s arm, leaning close to her.“Are you upset?”Tina was unhappy with her own life and had no control over her mouth. Was she not afraid of offending others?It seemed like Tina would not be allowed to attend such o
Everyone was well acquainted with each other and put on their social front. The attention was immediately placed on Mitchell as everyone greeted him warmly and familiarly.Mitchell walked over with a smile. His temperament and demeanor were slightly colder and harsher than before.However, Mitchell looked at the people present and greeted them without being condescending.When he saw Nicole and Clayton, he also greeted them familiarly without any hard feelings. They looked like ordinary friends who had known each other for many years.Nicole and Clayton nodded before turning their attention away.Gerard smiled. “Mitchell, are you very busy with the company? I asked you out a few times, but you rejected me ruthlessly. Guys, don’t you think that’s too much?”Mitchell lowered his head and smiled. “Mr. Lichman, I’m not being too much. If you ask to meet me, then of course I’ll go, but if you want me to go to the equator to experience life...”Gerard choked before suddenly laughing.
Nicole heard the complaint in Yvette’s words and did not make a sound.Everyone knew that Yvette working at Lance’s side as an assistant was just a stepping stone.At worst, Yvette would return to Quimbey Corporation to inherit her family business.Now that Lance did not put Yvette in a role suitable for her, Yvette going back to Quimbey Corporation would also be a problem.How could Yvette be an assistant for a short while and then go back to become the President of Quimbey Corporation?What would the people of Quimbey Corporation think of her?Mrs. Quimbey would certainly not spare Yvette.Nicole paused. “Why don’t I propose a project for you? Tell Lance that it’s specifically for you to handle.”After all, promoting friends was not unheard of in the circle.Yvette looked at Nicole. “Forget it. I know what to do. I’ll go back and let him know what I think!”She put down the cup in her hand with certainty, looking righteous and formidable.Nicole raised her eyebrows. “Okay,
Eric’s fists secretly tightened and loosened.The unintentional glance just now made Nicole seem like a passerby, but that sight was unforgettable.The woman who belonged to Eric finally left him.He could not even redeem himself.Eric could only quietly think about the past when Nicole only had eyes for him in the dead of night.That was Eric’s prime.When the party was over, it was already dark outside.Everyone exchanged pleasantries and left one after another.Clayton was talking to Gerard about an acquisition until the end of the party. Nicole could only wait on the sidelines.She felt a little sleepy from waiting.In a daze, Nicole felt someone drape a coat over her shoulders.Nicole woke up and looked at the person in front of her. His handsome and elegant face carried a warm smile. “Let’s go home and rest.”Nicole sighed in relief and stood up immediately after.“It’s finally over.”Nicole only wanted to show her face tonight. Clayton was the one basically doing a
