Natalie could tell that Kelly had no intention of leaving even after Garrett and Laney had gone.She took a deep

breath and compelled a smile.

“Miss Astley! I wish I could invite you in for a cup of tea or something, but the studio is only open to staff.”

“You!”

Kelly was furious at Natalie.

“Forget it. It’s not worth my while to argue with a rude woman like you.”

Snorting, she turned around and walked away with the documents.

Back in the car, Kelly flung the document onto the passenger seat, trying to suppress her anger.She had expected

Laney to be a hooligan and that her companions, insolent.She couldn’t deal with Laney herself, it was true, but she

could ask someone else to.

Kelly took out her phone to call Garrett’s mother–Vera Harding.

Vera was having afternoon tea with other wealthy ladies.

They were discussing the jewelry that was up for auction recently.

Vera excused herself when her phone rang and then went to the garden to take the call.

“Kelly! What’s the matter?”

In a stern voice, she asked, “Shouldn’t you be in a meeting with Garrett at this time?”

“Mr.Harding said that he couldn’t go to the meeting and asked me to postpone it to tomorrow.”

Kelly sighed.

Noticing something was amiss, Vera asked seriously, “What happened?”

“Nothing,” Kelly said in a trembling voice.

“Mr.Harding has told me…That I can’ tell anyone about it.”

Vera’s face hardened and her eyes sharpened.

“What can Garrett do to you when it was I who chose you? You can tell me anything, and I’ll take the responsibility.”

Garrett had a history of having affairs with numerous women.

Kelly received her degree from a reputable overseas institution.She was talented and beautiful.She was a well-

chosen spy for Vera.Her job was to assist Garrett with business matters, and, at the same time, help Vera deal with

the women around Garrett.

Kelly pretended to sound worried.

“This has something to do with his wife.Mr.Harding was about to hold a meeting when Mrs.Harding interrupted

him.She said something and made Mr.Harding stay.”

Vera smiled, but there was no smile in her eyes.

“What did she say?”

“She asked Mr.Harding to go with her to the restaurant for dinner.She said that being pregnant, it was natural for

her to feel hungry often.I understand Mr.Harding’s predicament.He is busy with his work and wants to back for the

meeting, but he can’t refuse his wife.”

Kelly let out a sigh again.

“This shareholders’ meeting is crucial, so I’m sorry Mr.Harding postponed the meeting in such a way.l’m afraid…”

“HI deal with Garrett,”

Vera cut in.

“In the meantime, send some gifts for the stockholders. We have to show them that the Harding family doesn’t plan

to treat them lightly.”

Vera spoke in an arrogant tone.She grumbled, “I was right in thinking that Laney is not the suitable daughter-in-

law.You should keep telling me about this kind of stuff in the future.Garrett has just taken over the company, so he

can’t slack off.It’s for his own good that I send you to help him.”

Kelly smiled.

“I see, Mrs.Harding.”

In an upscale restaurant.

Garrett and Laney were having dinner in a private room.

“The restaurant’s specialty is their carbonara.”

Garrett ordered two dishes for Laney.He knew she liked creamy food.

Laney had not allowed herself to eat as much as she wanted for a very long time.She was under Vera’s strict diet

monitoring.

Garret ordered Laney two plates, which she wolfed down because she was so hungry today.

She ate happily, unaware of the cream on the corner of her mouth.

Garrett was a little amused to see her this way.

He grabbed a napkin to wipe the cream from her lips.
