Chapter 133 This Is Quite Intriguing
Gwen glanced at Simone, who nodded and pointed to the phone. Gwen made an OK gesture in response. Then she said to Adam, “Dad, this time I’m back, and I don’t plan to go abroad
again
Adam, showing more patience with Gwen, asked, “Did you have another conflict with Harold?” Gwen replied. “We broke up.”
Adam asked unexpectedly, “How did you break up?” Gwen told the truth. “He was flirting with his secretary while leading me on. I’ve had enough, so I won’t play with him anymore. There are plenty of men in the world, and I can live without him.”
She couldn’t help but add, “There are also good women everywhere. No one can’t live without someone else. Don’t be obsessed with love.” Adam chuckled from the other end of the phone. It seems like my daughter has grown up. It’s good that you’re happy now. Can’t imagine that Harold is playing both sides and with the complexity of the Jenners, it’s not going to end well.
“I told you before that he’s not a good match, but you didn’t listen and insisted on going abroad with him.” If it were in the past, Gwen would have argued and said that he was no different from Melinda. But thinking of Adam’s situation, she held back.
She said, ‘I understand now. Adam smiled and said, You’re so beautiful and capable. You will find someone better than Harold.” Gwen raised her chin and agreed, “That’s for sure.”
Then the topic changed. “Dad, I’m not interested in love right now, but I’m very motivated in my career. How about arranging for me to work at the Foster Group? After all, I also have shares.”
This was what Simone asked her to inquire about. Adam obviously didn’t expect Gwen to say that. He remained silent for a moment before saying, “It’s not the right time yet, wait a little longer.” Gwen pretended to be unhappy. “You’re just like Melinda, always favoring the eldest.”
Adam didn’t get angry, but instead uttered, “Don’t worry, you will have what he has too.” He continued, “There’s something urgent in my company, so let’s not talk about it for now.”
Gwen knew that he didn’t want to continue the previous topic. “Okay, but you have to promise me one thing.”
Adam asked, “What is it?” Gwen acted coquettish and said, “You have to take me out for a meal tomorrow, and I’ve set my eyes on a set of jewelry. You have to buy it for me.” Adam said with a helpless and indulgent tone, “Alright, little girl. I’ll take you to buy it tomorrow.”
Gwen smiled and said, “That’s perfect. Bye, Dad!” After hanging up the phone, Gwen looked at Simone and asked, “Simone, have you noticed anything? Otherwise, why would you

suddenly suggest that I go work at the Foster Group?” She never liked Skyler before, and now she didn’t want to see him even more.
In the Fosters, Old Mrs. Foster was the person Melinda feared the most. Hearing her say this, Gwen also realized it. She thought carefully and said, “That’s true. Every time Melinda asks my dad to deal with me and Leon, he always handles it lightly. It seems like it’s all for show in front of Melinda.”
