Chapter 417 Uncovering My Wife's Secrets
If Annalise did not go to the bridal boutique, she would either return to the Parks residence or go to the company with Julian. Therefore, Layla asked her men to split up into three groups. The first group of people would be at the bridal boutique. The second group would stop Annalise on her way back to the Parks residence. If a pregnant woman got into a car accident or something, even if the injuries were not fatal, she would likely have a miscarriage. And the third group would go to the Parks Group building to cause trouble. If Frederic threatened to jump off the building, many people would gather. As long as Layla's men find a way to get Annalise out of the car, it would only be as easy as pushing her down.
No matter what, there was only one goal. Layla wanted Annalise to have a miscarriage. Julian cared about Annalise so much. Once the child was gone, he would surely comfort and accompany her. How could he still be in the mood to work? Furthermore, if Julian had no children, Old Mr. Parks would not favor him so much. After Julian accompanied Annalise for a month or two, Alexander's performance would have exceeded his by leaps and bounds. Others might not know about her son's abilities, but she knew. In addition to being the CEO of Parks Group's branch office, Alexander also ran his own business. After several years of hard work, his company now had a market value of 150 million dollars. It was now trying its best to expand into the apparel market. Moreover, with her and Tony handling the overseas market, she was sure Alexander would win, against popular opinion.
This was such a good opportunity, but their operation had failed. She could not help but reprimand them. "How could you miss such a good opportunity? Didn't you say that there was no mission you couldn't complete?" She wanted to call them idiots, trash, useless retards. However, she refrained, thinking she still had to ask. them to do something later. The people on the other end also knew they had not done well. They repeatedly apologized over the phone and begged Layla to give them another chance. Layla's eyes darkened. "Be careful not to expose yourself. I'll find another opportunity." "Okay. Thank you. Don't worry. We'll do it perfectly next time." The male voice on the phone sounded pleading. "Sure. Wait for my instructions," Layla said in a condescending tone. After hanging up, she snorted softly. So, what was she fighting for?
Because money could make the world go round. After hanging up the phone, she lay down on the beach chair. Two senior beauticians from the beauty salon began to cleanse Layla's face. They applied the skincare products and gave her a massage... The beauticians were gentle and humble. One of them asked Layla if the pressure was too much and if Layla's shoulders and neck felt comfortable. Then, she complimented Layla's figure. Her skin was smooth and bouncy, making her look even younger than a 30-year-old woman. Layla enjoyed the compliment very much. She closed her eyes comfortably and indulged herself. Then, she reached out and took some money from the square table beside her. She handed them to the beauticians. Being wealthy was wonderful. She could spend as much money as she wanted to look good. When she was younger, no one noticed it, but as she grew older, her advantage over women the same age as her was obvious.
He bit Layla's ear. "We've been together for more than twenty years, but you still look so attractive. Tell me, which man could ever leave your side?" "Stop fooling around. I'll have to leave soon." Layla pushed Tony gently. Tony hugged Layla tightly. Layla wanted to avoid him on purpose. Tony suddenly picked Layla up and threw her onto a large bed in the middle of the walk-in closet... The room was filled with passion... Just as the two of them were getting carried away, one of their phones suddenly rang. It was Layla's. Layla wanted to answer the phone. Tony was unhappy. "Don't answer." Layla insisted on answering the phone. Layla reached for the phone and saw the caller ID. Immediately, she sounded serious. "It's Alexander."
Tony pulled a long face and lay down. Layla answered the phone. "Alexander, you finally called me. What's the occasion?" "Someone threatened to jump off the Parks Group company building today. Did you arrange it?" Alexander's tone was very unpleasant. Layla quickly turned her head to look at Tony. She said into the phone, "What? Someone jumped off a building?" She played dumb. She could not let Tony or Alexander know she had schemed against Annalise's child. No matter how upset Tony was with Julian, he was only unhappy because Julian did not treat him as his father. Deep down, he still cared for Julian. Alexander sighed. He said, "Mom, I'll say it again. If you try to harm Julian's child, I'll withdraw from the competition." With that, Alexander hung up.
