The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me

Chapter 292: A World of Difference



Joey wasn't worried that Quentin dared to do anything improper to her after closing the door. Even if he had the guts, he wasn't able to do it. Right now, she could knock him down easily.

To Joey's surprise, Quentin reported to her what she and Philip had just mentioned about the company's stock boom. Moreover, Quentin had an insight into the connection between this issue and Ben.

Joey turned to look at Quentin. He was good. No wonder he was able to serve as Lawrence's chief secretary. However, Quentin was base and lascivious.

After a pause, Joey said, "In your opinion, what should I do now?"

Although she and Philip had a plan, Joey wanted to hear the opinions of Quentin, a veteran businessman. Perhaps, he would have a more reliable and ruthless method.

For the sake of Vivian, Ben and Quentin turned against each other fiercely. Therefore, Joey believed that Quentin harbored no less than hatred towards Ben than hers.

Sure enough, with a sinister smile, Quentin replied, "Ben wants to save the situation. We may as well take the quiet approach. Let him raise the share price, and cash the stocks. When he violates the law, we will give him a blow so that he will never make a comeback." Joey nodded. This did not differ much from the plan she had made with Philip. "It's easy to say. If he gets the money and we can't find any evidence against him, then everything will be empty talk."

Quentin returned, "If you trust me, leave it to me."

Quentin didn't flirt with Helen on impulse. As Ben's most beloved mistress and secretary, Helen must have involved in Ben's plans. Quentin decided to start with Helen.

Joey pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, if things are done, you can replace Ben."

Hearing this, Quentin went wild with joy. He offered to help so as to crack down on Ben. But now, Quentin was extremely happy because of the benefits.

After giving Joey an assurance, Quentin left the office with a big smile.

Joey watched him leave with a faint smile. Of course, she would not place all her hopes on Quentin. However, there was no harm in accepting assistance from Ben who hated Ben as much as she did. Afterwards, Joey pressed the remote control and closed the office door. She then took out the nutritious breakfast that Allen had given her before and began to taste it happily....

Joey received breakfast prepared by Allen early in the morning, while Yolanda had been in receipt of a lawyer letter from Allen about the divorce.

When Yolanda received the cold lawyer's letter, she just finished dressing up and started eating breakfast. She was the only one on the big table. Allen still hadn't returned. He slept in his office. Paige and Lillian were both injured and stayed in the hospital. As for George, he must have been taking hookah with Samantha in the Moore's.

Looking at the cold and formulaic expressions in the lawyer's letter, Yolanda felt dizzy. She could not even read a single word. She angrily crushed the letter into a ball and threw it into the garbage basket. In spite of the hearty breakfast on the table, she had no appetite. "Pack up my unfinished bird's nest. I want to take it with me."

Yolanda did not make any compliant. After pondering for a long time, she only ordered calmly.

When the maid received Yolanda's order, she immediately packed the bird's nest for Yolanda with a porcelain cup.

Yolanda took it and paused. Under the frightened gazes of the maid, Yolanda added half a cup of strong milk and two spoonfuls of sugar to the bird's nest. Then, she left the house with it.

After being processed by Yolanda, the bird's nest would definitely taste terrible. The maid couldn't help but feel sorry for someone who would have it.

Yolanda prepared it for Paige.

Allen did not return. Yolanda thought that he was at the hospital with Paige. Thus, she planned to bring the breakfast she had "personally" made to Paige so as to show her virtue. Yolanda added some other seasoning to the bird's nest on purpose. Otherwise, Paige, who enjoyed having dishes cooked by the maid, would definitely find out that the bird's nest was cooked by the maid.

Unfortunately, Yolanda's effort was in vain, because Allen was not there at all. She had a wasted trip.

After placing the bird's nest on Paige's bed, Yolanda left without greeting or showing concern. She went to look for Chance and asked him to check if she was successfully conceived after being placed a test tube baby to her womb last night.

Although Paige was dissatisfied with Yolanda's ignoring her, it was rare for Yolanda to bring Paige something to eat. Thus, Paige took a curious look. Seeing that it was her favorite bird's nest, she immediately took a sip. However, the expected taste didn't come. Too much milk and sugar made it too terrible to swallow.

Paige couldn't help but ruthlessly scold Yolanda. She misjudged that Yolanda would be a good wife, so she tried her best to ask Allen to marry Yolanda. However, after they got married, Yolanda was completely different. She was like this bowl of bird's nest, which smelled delicious but tasted so nauseating.0000
