Chapter 766 If I’m Not Around Anymore
“Douglas, what did President Yard say to you?” Phoebe asked tentatively. Douglas was indifferent. “Nothing much. She said she had a friend that looked like me, and she mistook me for them.” Phoebe nodded in silence, feeling slightly more secure.
“Phoebe, I think we should avoid jobs like this in the future; I need to focus on my music.”
Phoebe nodded hastily. “Yes, this is the only company we should never mess with, but if the partnership works out, the profit we get from endorsements would be enough to shut the company up.”
The two walked out of JNS Corporation together. Out of boredom, Jude paid a visit to the Fowlers, where Selena relayed to her the events that transpired with Douglas.
Jude, too, shook her head after listening. “Actually, I think if I were him, I wouldn’t admit it too. I’ve finally bid my past goodbye, so I wouldn’t allow others to irritate my old wounds, correct?”
After thinking about it, Selena had to agree. “Maybe I was too impatient? It’s already enough for me to know that he’s still here and living well, but… Did you know, Jude? When Helen pleaded guilty, Pierre and I still felt that there was someone behind the scenes who was adding fuel to the flames. There was another reason in our search for Chris.”
Jude did not interfere.
“Pierre and I think that Chris’ father was the one behind the scenes, but we still haven’t found him. This isn’t over yet.” Selena couldn’t help but start worrying.
Jude patted Selena on the head. “All right, let’s just be content where we are. We can’t do anything right now, can we?”
“Jude, I have a feeling that something bad will happen. I don’t know why it’s been like this for a while. My eyelids keep twitching.” Selena looked wearily at Jude as she spoke.
Jude didn’t say anything regarding the matter. “You’re just feeling anxious because the man isn’t here. You’re a strong woman, aren’t you? So don’t rely so much on men, okay?”
Selena smiled in response, hoping that she was just too sensitive.
However, the smile suddenly vanished from Jude’s face. “Selena, if a day comes where I’m not with you anymore, you’ll have to take care of yourself, all right?”
