At that moment, Ellen suddenly came rushing out of the washroom and looked at
Jared anxiously. “H-Hey, I need to head downstairs.” “What’s wrong?” Jared asked after sensing. Ellen’s panicky expression.
“Nothing. I-I just realized that I’m on my period now, and I didn’t see it coming,’ Ellen responded bashfully as she was caught off guard by her unexpected menstrual period. After all, she was usually prepared for it.
“No worries. I’ll get what you need for you.” Jared could tell how desperate Ellen was from her standing posture, smiling at her at the same time.
“Alright, I’ll send you the brand and the other. details about the product I need.” Ellen reckoned it was better for her to stay in the apartment due to her menstrual pain, which was starting to kick in.
In the meantime, Jared immediately headed downstairs and made his way to a nearby supermarket. Since he rarely visited places like marts and malls, his presence in the women’s department instantly drew the attention of many other young ladies in the area.
“Goodness! He is so handsome!” “He must be buying it for his girlfriend!” It turned out that two young ladies were secretly admiring Jared from a distance while they gossiped about him. At the same time, both of them couldn’t help but envy the lady whom Jared was buying the sanitary pads for.
Meanwhile, Jared appeared to be crouching down while looking closely at every single product to find the brand that Ellen sent him earlier without feeling uncomfortable at all.
After that, he took two of every product that Ellen told him to buy and headed to the counter for payment. Then, he made his way back home as quickly as he could, unwilling to keep Ellen waiting for too long.
On the other hand, Ellen was sitting on the couch restlessly as if she had needles in her pants. At the same time, she had to use tissues as a substitute for a sanitary pad until someone opened the door and entered the place. Then, she quickly grabbed what she needed from Jared and rushed into the bedroom.
When she was finally able to heave a sigh of relief, she saw the man already waiting for her by the bathroom door. At the sight of Jared’s presence, the lady blushed in her cheeks, for it was her first time letting a man buy menstrual products for her.
The next moment, Jared took Ellen to the couch and poured her a glass of warm water, which she happily took with her hands as if she no longer felt the pain with his love and care.
Later that night, Ellen went to sleep with her arms wrapped around Jared; that was the only way she felt secure and comfortably warm. When she opened her eyes the next morning, the man who lay beside her was already gone, only leaving a note behind.
‘Good morning, babe. I need to head down to the office first, but don’t worry.Someone will prepare you breakfast. Be sure to rest well.”
Ellen was stunned when she saw the note. She then got off her bed and stepped out of the bedroom, only to see a middle-aged woman cooking in the kitchen.
“Miss Reiss, I just made you some chowder and chicken soup. Would you like to have them now?” “Um, who might you be? Ellen asked.
“You may call me Felicia. I’ll be responsible for your meals and all the house chores from now on. Mr. Presgrave wants you to have enough. rest.”
“Alright, thank you.” Ellen nodded as she was indeed hungry. Meanwhile, an intense meeting was going on at Presgrave Corporation about a company that was on the brink of bankruptcy despite having a history of over a hundred years old in Xaswela.
While its bankruptcy drew the attention of all huge corporations across the world, Presgrave Corporation was no exception at all. In fact, they wanted a piece of what was left of the company, so they were especially ambitious in acquiring the company.
Therefore, they came up with a meticulous plan to go about their acquisition, only to be caught off guard by a huge rival from Hogland. Thus, the people from Presgrave Corporation’s procurement department quickly found themselves in a tight spot, where they needed a quick solution to resolve their problem.
As soon as the meeting was over, Jared heard his phone ringing on the table. “Hello?” he said after answering it.
“Hello, Mr. Presgrave. My name is Hannie Quins, and I’m the person in charge of running the Quins Group. Thus, I would like to make a proposition with you on behalf of my family. When would you be free to meet up?” The young lady’s sweet voice sounded soothing, but her speech was not fluent.
Jared knitted his eyebrows, thinking it wasn’t appropriate for him to see Hannie due to their conflicting positions. I’m sorry, Miss Quins. I don’t see a reason for us to meet up.”
I am sincere with my invitation, Mr. Presgrave. We may not meet today, but I’m sure we will someday. Actually, I’m more interested in you personally, so see you again soon.” Hannie hung up the call as soon as she finished her words.
Meanwhile, Jared put down his phone and went through the details that were left on his desk. When he flipped to the third page, he saw a rough introduction about the family members. behind the Quins Group and set his eyes on a face under the third generation of the family. tree.
It turned out that he had his eyes glued on the eldest child of the family behind the Quins Group, which was none other than Hannie, a lady who looked decently stunning in her looks and aura. Nevertheless, Jared only closed his eyes helplessly, feeling somewhat numb to the women who warmed up to him with an ulterior motive.
As he was no stranger to such circumstances, he didn’t feel surprised after receiving Hannie’s call at all. Instead, he was disgusted by her attempt to warm up to him.
In the meantime, a lady was wearing a long. skirt by the window in a hotel’s presidential suite in the center of the city, keeping her ambitious eyes fixed on the building of Presgrave Corporation like a huntress spying on her prey.
A smile tugged on the lady’s red lips as she held a glass of red wine in her hand.
When she unlocked her phone, it displayed a photo of Jared. It was the perfect airport photo, showcasing his handsome and captivating image.
Just then, her phone rang, and she glanced at it before answering the call. It was her father speaking in Hoglandish. “Hello, Dad.” “Are you sure about this? I’m feeling a lot of pressure from your grandfather’s side.”
“Dad, trust me. My goal isn’t to take down that company. I just want to get close to Mr. Presgrave using this way. Don’t you want a son- in-law who is rich and powerful? He possesses all the qualities that I desire. I want to attract him.” The lady’s voice was filled with confidence as if capturing
Jared’s heart was an absolute certainty. “Alright, I’ll give you six months, and you can use the company’s resources to approach him.”
“Dad, if I don’t win him over, how is Grandpa going to give you the inheritance rights? Uncle Owen has already gained Grandpa’s favor. With Grandpa’s health failing, he could pass away at any time.
I must fight for your inheritance rights while Grandpa is still alive,” Hannie firmly declared since marrying Jared was the best way to prove herself. “Alright. I’m counting on you now.”
After Hannie hung up the phone, her assistant pushed the door open and walked in, holding the latest set of airport photos. “Miss Quins, this was just taken by our people.”
When Hannie took the photos and saw the photo of Jared holding hands with a young girl, her eyes narrowed a little. “It seems that Mr. Presgrave has a girlfriend.”
“So what? I won’t let her get in my way. Compared to her, I have the upper hand.” Her eyes brimmed with confidence. “Indeed, you’re not any less pretty than her. You will surely win him over.”
Hannie put down the photos, her eyes flashing with ambition and cunningness.
Judging from how she was using her family’s power to compete in the acquisition, it was clear that she was serious about this. She was not just playing around. Therefore, no one could stop her. ‘Investigate her background. I want to know who she is,” she ordered.
On the other hand, Ellen had plenty of free time, so she spent the day learning how to cook from Felicia, trying to acquire a skill.
However, Jared had a social engagement. tonight and said he would be coming home. late. As such, she enjoyed her dinner alone, and Wanda left at 8.00PM after cleaning up.
Then, she waited for him on the balcony, looking out at the sea of lights outside.
Although she was alone in such a large home, her heart was warm and full. This was because she knew that no matter how late it was, he would come back to her side.
Sometimes, waiting was a happy thing for her. Finally, around 9.30PM, the sound of the door opening came from outside. Hearing that, she quickly got up from the balcony and went to welcome him.
The man who came back had a slightly red face and a faint smell of alcohol on him. While feeling sorry for him, she hugged him and asked, “Are you tired?”
Ellen reached out her hand and picked up. Jared’s phone for another glance. Sure enough, a message with a somewhat sad tone came in. “Mr. Presgrave, I came from another country to invite you for a drink. Don’t you feel sorry for ignoring me like this?”
After reading the message, she felt her heart wrench a little. This girl is pursuing Jared so aggressively. Who is she?
When Jared came out of the shower, she was watching TV, so he approached her with some moisture on his body and pulled her into his arms. The fresh scent of the shampoo mixed with his masculine scent was enticing.
“Piggy,” he called her nickname as he kissed her. However, she could only look at him apologetically. “I accidentally saw a message. from a girl on your phone. She seems to be flirting with you. Do you want to explain?”
