Chapter 144
The most luxurious hotel in the east of the city that Molly mentioned was the Gordon Hotel, which the Innovate Group owned.
“Stephanie, you just told Dominion that you were going to have a blind date, Molly sighed and glanced at the woman beside her
“This hotel is your husband’s. If he misunderstands, he might ask someone to kick us out in a rage. He is not an ordinary person. Don’t offend him.”
Stephanie didn’t want to listen to her nagging, so she changed the subject. “Molly, you haven’t told me yet who the father of that little boy you brought home last night is.”
Molly’s expression looked a little strange when she heard this. She said vaguely. “We just happened to know each other.”
Stephanie narrowed her eyes and continued, “You said last night that the man was an important cooperative client of the company. What’s his name? I might know him.”
“Stephanie, you played dumb when I asked you about something, but you kept asking me about my privacy.”
Molly immediately became anxious and yelled at her with a stern face, I know! You must be jealous because of Hayley who suddenly came back Don’t deny it
“Jealous? You are joking” Stephanie’s face darkened. She picked up the cup of hot cocca on the table and took a big sip
Molly glanced at her. She knew Stephanie would not admit it. “If you don’t care about Dominick, you won’t be jealous. ||
“Nowadays, many people get married just because they think they are old enough to be in married life. Even if they have no feeling for each other, they still get married” Then, Molly added self–deprecatingly, “For example, I’m also one of them, a woman in her blind date”
Stephanie frowned and checked the time on her phone. “Why hasn’t your blind date arrived yet?”
“He’s not late. I arrived half an hour early Molly looked a line nervous. Looking at her best friend, who was a stunning beauty, she felt even more inferior. “Stephanie, do you think an ordinary woman like me will never catch a man’s eye!”
“Bah!” Stephanie, who was drinking hot cocoa opposite, uttered a rude word with a stern face and in an ungraceful manner.
Those cheap men prefer those who are flirty. You are a good girl. Molly. You don’t have to pay attention to those men. They don’t have a good
Stephanie raised an eyebrow, saying somewhat disdainfully, “Do you know the Roberts family in Caclorium? One of Dominick’s friends is Scott Roberts. He is good–looking and gentle. Unfortunately, he was seduced and married a dissolute beauty
“Vincent told me that after Scott’s wife gave birth to a child, she always gathered with those wealthy ladies and played cards. They gambled a lot, and when they were playing high–spiritedly, they went to take a hot spring with a group of men. When they were tired, they would spend the night in hotels.”
Molly’s eyes widened in surprise when she heard the gossip. “I didn’t realize that woman liked gambling so much, she murmured.
Stephanie didn’t hear what she said clearly and continued. “Vincent said that the credit card debt she owed every month was enough to buy a house In the downtown. The elders of the Roberts family are gentle and don’t have too many requirements for the daughter–in–law. They tolerate Scott’s wife because she has given birth to a child. It’s tolerable to spend money, but it’s a bit much if she hooks up with men.”
Molly seemed to think of something, and she looked a little absent–minded.
The Roberts family was a literary family, not a wealthy family. She murmured, “That woman spends money lavishly. No wonder he works so hard”
“Who are you talking about? Stephanie was a little curious.
Before Molly could reply, a sharp female voice suddenly came from their left. The woman warned, “Molly, shut up. If you keep talk nonsense, don’t blame me for being rude!”
Stephanie and Molly heard the voice and turned around at the same time. It was Sharon, their old classmate.
“We are chatting. Does it have anything to do with you?” Molly frowned and looked at Sharon coldly.
“You asked for leave to come here and discuss and slander my cousin. Can’t I stop you, Molly! You are an ordinary person, so you’d better not get into trouble. Don’t mention what you saw yesterday!” Sharon looked angry and yelled at Molly.
Stephanie was puzzled. “What? Yesterday?” She and Molly had just discussed Scott’s wife.

Chapter 144
“Sharon, how could you be in the same department with such a person? It’s really a disgrace.” A woman with red lips and a hot figure strode towards this side charmingly and glanced at Molly with disdain. It was Chloe, Scott’s wife.
Stephanie pounded the table angrily and stood up. “Who are you calling ugly!”
Sharon was a little afraid. She immediately walked to Chloe in front of her and tugged at her clothes. “Chloc, don’t…” But Chloe was not in the
“Chloe, you don’t like me, but you can’t offend my friend” Molly
Chloe looked arrogant. She raised an eyebrow smugly and then turned to shout, “Hayley, come here and take a look. Don’t let the two people work for you, or they will embarrass you.”
Stephanie’s expression changed when she heard the name “Hayley“.
