Chapter 230
Holding his phone up in the air, Pierre wanted to smash it into the floor, but he eventually decidedagainst it, choosing to merely sulk instead. All of a sudden, his phone began ringing. He assumed itwas from Selena, only to see that it was from Fowler Residence. “Hello.”
“Daddy, I’m bored. I want to go on a trip. Can you bring me on one?” Jameson was on the phone.
“Stay at home and listen to your Grandpa.”
“No. I want to go out and play! I’m so bored at home! I want to play with Juniper, and I want to seeMiss Selena!” Jameson began crying over the phone. However, it was apparent that he was fakingit, as he used to do that a lot.
“Alright, man up and stop crying! I’m too busy to entertain you!” Pierre hung up immediately.Considering the fact that he already had a lot on his plate, Jameson didn’t actually call at a goodtime. However, he decided to give Niall a call after some thought. “Find an opportunity to getJameson and Joaquin out of the house in my name for a trip.”
“Sure, Mr. Fowler.”
“Also, remember to hurry up and investigate Linda.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up, Pierre headed straight for the boarding gate as his flight was about to take off.
Meanwhile, Selena had been busy with a meeting. She had a lot of work that had piled up while shewas taking care of Pierre in the hospital, so getting a call from him that claimed to be nothing ofimportance when she was at her busiest led her to explode on him. After a particularly lengthymeeting, she sprawled out on the sofa after finally returning to her office.
Upon noticing how exhausted Selena was, Linda said, “Why don’t I go fetch Juniper in your steadso that you can get some rest?”
“Sure. I’m bone-tired.” Selena switched her pose before suddenly realizing something. “What’stoday’s date?”
“The third.” Linda stared at her in confusion. “What’s the matter?”
“The third?!” Having totally forgotten about the date, she checked her phone, only to realizebelatedly that Pierre must’ve called her while he was at the airport. She called back immediately, butwas forwarded to the message box which indicated that his phone was switched off. Slamming herphone on her forehead, she exclaimed, “Oh sh*t!”
“What’s wrong?”
“Pierre is going on a business trip today, but I roared at him when he gave me a call just now! Itotally forgot that he will be leaving today!” Selena seemed to be in much anguish.
On the other hand, Linda chuckled. “It seems like your relationship has evolved for the better.”
Selena’s face turned a hue of scarlet. “Don’t spout nonsense.”
“Might you two have already...” Linda then made a gesture with her hands.
The blush on Selena’s face intensified. “Why are you even so curious about it despite being single?”
With a pout, Linda retorted, “I know you’ve had sex with him as soon as I see how you’ve beenbehaving. A relationship transforms after a couple crosses that line.”novelbin
“Is that so?” Selena rolled her eyes. I think it might be true, as I have been missing him a lot.“Whatever. Since he’s now gone, I’ll wait till he comes back!” Stretching out, she said, “I’ll be going
home first, so don’t you forget to fetch Juniper.”
After that, the two women left the office together, but as soon as they opened the door, they weremet with the sight of a man who was leaning against the wall, his expression one of indifference andslight anger. There was a domineering air about him that was intimidating, but his features were stilldevilishly enchanting.
Upon realizing that Pierre was there, Linda quickly made a tactical retreat. “I’ll be getting out of hereto go fetch Juniper. Take your time to talk things through.”
At the same time, Selena was also surprised by his presence, as she assumed he should alreadybe on his flight by now, and yet here he was, standing right in front of her.
