Chapter 43: Honey, Do You Like Me?
Paul drove slowly with no expression.
He was not as omnipotent as a god.
He was just not sociable.
On social occasions, either other people found him boring, or he found others boring.
He didn't want himself to be boring in the eyes of others, nor did he want to endure the boredom of others.
So most of the time, he would rather be alone.
Although people who knew his identity never dared to say that he was boring, those occasions were dull.
The two of them stopped talking and the car finally stopped at the Shallow Bay.
Amy looked at him in surprise.
Weren't they going to eat? Why did they come here? "I have no appetite."
Paul got off the car without hesitation and strode to the house.
Amy followed him and almost fell.
"Slow down!"
he turned around and roared impatiently, Amy didn't know why he was upset and then suddenly stopped.
"Honey, you don't like me, do you?"
She asked him tentatively.
If he didn't like her, why would he be unhappy after seeing those things? She strode to catch up with him.
Then she stood in front of him and stared at him, not missing every nuance in his eyes.
Paul was very calm.
Then he suddenly reached out to caress her face and smiled calmly.
"No, I don't like you.It's a man's possessiveness.You're my nominal wife.Before I let you go, other men can't have anything to do with you.Amy, I can tell if I like you or I'm possessive about you.Also, I won't like anything."
It was a little ridiculous for a couple to discuss whether he liked her, but they were very serious.
Amy nodded and murmured, "That's right.People are born to like someone, or they will never.Honey, you’re the latter.’
When Paul heard what she said, he felt as if his heart had been bitten by a poisonous insect and looked at her in a daze.
When he realized that she was looking at him, he quickly looked away.
"Stay here tonight.I'll get a chance for you to move over.You can be freer here."
Amy's eyes lit up in an instant.
She had thought so before.
But it seemed that the Shallow Bay was very special to Paul and it was said that no woman had ever come in.
So she thought he wouldn't agree, but unexpectedly, he offered to let her move in.
"Okay."
She agreed readily and grinned.
Amy thought it was very normal for her to move to the Shallow Bay, but it caused a stir in the Howard Family.
Rachel looked sullen.
The moment she heard the news, her face almost contorted.
She thought Amy would stay in the Howard Family for two years according to her place and that Amy was not a threat because she was dull.
But now, her son allowed Amy to live in the Shallow Bay! It was the Shallow Bay where he promised to live with his loved one? Where to live! But what was Amy? His loved one? That was ridiculous! Rachel called Paul without thinking, her chest heaving wildly.
"Mom Paul tapped on the keyboard with one hand with a calm look.”
"You asked Amy to move into the Shallow Bay? Are you crazy, Paul? Don't tell me you really like that girl.ls she so good? When I introduced you to Miss Mellis, you said you didn't like her at all.You were childhood sweethearts.Isn't she better than Amy from the countryside? You're just messing around! I won't let Amy move over!"
This was the first time that Rachel had been so ill-mannered.
In her opinion, Amy was a woman who would overtly agree but covertly oppose.
Amy overtly promised that she would not desire more, but covertly she managed to vamp Paul.
No matter how well-bred she was, she would lose her temper now.
"I'llask Tim to come over and pack her things.” Paul said it calmly like stating a fact.
Rachel suddenly felt discouraged.
She knew very well that once her son decided, he would never change his mind.
"Paul, do you really like that girl?" She had comprised and felt helpless.
"I'll get divorced in two years.’ Paul was determined, revealing that he didn't like Amy at all.
Rachel felt relieved in an instant and got happier, "Okay.You'd better consider Miss Mellis.She has never forgotten you these years.And even though you were troubled by that rumor, she still visited us often and cared about you"
"I see."
Paul answered perfunctorily and hung up immediately.
As expected, Tim came to pack Amy's things.
In fact, Amy Turner had nothing but a few clothes.
So Tim packed them easily.
Rachel was gloomy, but having known her son’s attitude, she couldn't say much.
Amy was in the Grand Group now.
Since she could walk, she went back to work.
Everyone in the Legal Department knew that it was because of Amy that they won the case last time, but they had scruples about her because of what Yvonne said before she left the work, Yvonne said Amy had a powerful background and abused her power to bully others.
So on Amy's first day back at work, everyone in the whole department ignored her.
She didn't intend to reconcile with anyone.
After all, she didn't come here to make friends.
At noon, she did not go to the Grand Group cafeteria for lunch.
Instead, she visited her grandma.
But as soon as she left the company, a woman rushed over and hit her head with a bag.
Because there were rivets on the bag, Amy felt dizzy after being hit.
The security guards at the gate quickly stopped the woman with disheveled hair.
Amy touched her head and then saw this woman clearly.
It was Yvonne.
She became very haggard.
Her face was pale, her eyes were red and swollen, and her lips were cracked.
With a high salary, Yvonne used to take good care of herself.
How come she looked like this in such a short time?
"Amy Turner, you bitch! Bitch!"
She repeated this sentence with deep resentment in her eyes.
Amy was dizzy.
"I thought you would compete with me in court.I didn't expect you to choose the stupidest way.She spoke out clearly with coldness flashing her eyes.It hurt so much.Yvonne definitely had exerted all her strength to hit Amy and wanted Amy to die.Yvonne sneered with spite in her eyes.She took out a dagger from her bag to stab Amy.
"Go to hell! Don't be fake! You want me to die.I also want to kill you!"
She was so mad that there seemed to be flames in her eyes to drag Amy into hell.
Amy's expression changed and she took a big step back. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Fortunately, the security guards stopped Yvonne in time, or Amy would be stabbed in her chest.
Having been controlled by several men, Yvonne was struggling desperately and her dagger dropped.
Amy gasped and looked at her coldly.
"Yvonne Jeffreys, you're a top law graduate.Do you know what you're doing?"
She did not lose control and spoke clearly.
Yvonne sneered, "Of course, I know.I want you to die, bitch!"
"I don't think our grudge has been so deep."
Amy was calm, and she was trying to calm Yvonne down.
Yvonne was concerned about her reputation.
Why did she hate Amy so much that she even did this in public? Because of their grudge? Absolutely impossible.
Even though Yvonne left the Grand Group, what she wanted to do was defeat Amy in court.
Yvonne stared at her mockingly.
"Amy Turner, I was wrong.I thought you were innocent and got the job by unfair means.But you were so malicious.I wanted to prove myself in other companies, but you let your backer deprive me of all my possibilities and asked someone to insult me.We indeed don't have a deep grudge but you are so vicious.Why can't I kill you? I don't want to live anyway.’ She was dispirited and her eyes drooped.
Amy calmed down, smiled, then slapped Yvonne quickly.
Yvonne covered her face and looked at her with red eyes, "Bitch! You still insult me!"
"I want you to calm down lest you continue to do stupid things and look trouble for yourself!"
