Chapter 33
Viona was still in shock. She breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest, “I was scared to death. I thought a thief had entered.”
“Impossible.” Jolene sneered, “The Earth Group was heavily guarded. Even if thieves came in, they wouldn’t be able to get out.”
“Here.” She pushed the contract towards Bowen, “Mr. Evert, Martin’s contract is here, and it fell under the table.”
She didn’t look at Bowen the whole time she was speaking.
Looking up, Jolene could see the second button of Bowen’s shirt.
The tie he wore that day had been bought for him by Jolene.
Bowen liked Jolene’s choices and liked the tie she had chosen for him.
Once he had drunk too much, he had pinched Jolene’s chin and said, “You are so in my favor, then you have to be my assistant for the rest of your life.”
She had also been pleased at that time, “Then I can make you money for the rest of your life.”
As a result, that life had lasted only more than four years.
She handed over the contract and said with lowered

eyebrows, “Mr. Evert, Miss Viona, I’ll be leaving first.”

She picked up the bag on the chair and walked towards the door. She didn’t know whether it was because her feet had been numb from squatting for a long time or she had been dizzy because her body had been too weak.
When passing by Bowen, she had staggered and almost fallen.
Bowen had quickly supported her arm.
Jolene had sworn she hadn’t done it on purpose, but her body had been as soft as noodles, and she hadn’t been able to stand upright.
Bowen had also noticed that her face had been hideous, and delicate beads of sweat had been all over her forehead.
He couldn’t help but lighten his tone, “What’s wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?”
“It’s okay.” Jolene had tried to stand up straight, “Maybe my feet are numb!”
“You look very weak.” He had taken her to the side of the sofa, “Sit for a while.”
Then he had turned around and told Viona, “Go and pour her a cup of hot chocolate.”
Viona had been momentarily stunned, and Jolene had also felt something was wrong, struggling to say, “How can I let Miss Viona serve me? …”
Viona had returned to her senses, smiled, and said

repeatedly, “It’s just a glass of water. You take a rest, and I’ll make you hot chocolate.”
Viona had left the office, and Bowen had stood opposite her.
He had been too tall. Jolene had had to look up to see his face.
Honestly, Bowen Evert had been a good boss and lover compared to the average domineering CEO.
Bowen had been able to be gentle when he had needed to be gentle and considerate when he had needed to be thoughtful.
Jolene had been in terrible pain. She had wanted to say something innocuous, but then she hadn’t been able to say anything. Her lower abdomen had twitched and hurt like a hand had held her uterus tightly.
Maybe the anesthesia had worn off, and the pain had come.
Her face had become increasingly uncomfortable, and a warm palm had appeared on her forehead.
She had heard Bowen’s slightly surprised voice, “Why were you sweating so much?”
She had been in so much pain that she hadn’t been able to speak, and Bowen had supported her shoulders and had let her lie on the sofa.
After a while, Bowen had seemed to understand something.
“What date is today? Have you delayed or brought it forward?” He had thought Jolene had had a stomachache.
during her period, and just as she had lain down, Bowen’s palm had been attached to her lower abdomen.
“It hurts here? Did you eat something cold?”
Jolene had struggled to open her eyes and had looked at him.
She had remembered that when she had just gotten together with him, there had been a time when Jolene had had her period, and it had hurt so badly that she had curled up and rolled around him, and Bowen had carried her to the hospital in the middle of the night.
Later, when she had been in the hospital for an infusion, he had gone worldwide to buy a hot water bottle. It had been the hottest August at that time. He had found several
convenience stores to buy a hot water bottle and had filled it with hot water to warm her stomach.
At that time, she had thought that if Bowen had just been an ordinary company employee, she would have tried her best to marry him.
