Chapter 219
The next morning.
L, refreshed and rejuvenated for another work day, went to the table with Nicole for breakfast. Angie
nced at Nicole, who was wearing a new blue dress, and wondered, "When did Nicole get this
dress?"
L smiled when she saw her mother stare at her granddaughter''s dress. Nicole said happily,
"Grandma, mommy said this dress was from uncle Harry. Uncle is so sweet, right?"
Everybody then knew what was going on. They knew that Harry still thought that Nicole was the
daughter of L and another man.
But he was okay even with that in mind——he surely loved L with all his heart and soul.
"I somehow heard a helicopternd outside the vi." When the helicopter arrivedst night, Landon
was already at bed and didn''t get up.
Landon''s sudden question embarrassed L a bit. She coughed and then exined, "Grandfather, I
was just sent backst night by thepany from a business trip. There''s nothing to look into it, all
right?"
Landon then put on the expression of disbelief. The other three just raised their eyebrows and
skeptically looked at L who was hiding her embarrassment by eating.
Did they really happen to see Harry? "Well L, did you really go on a business trip? Not a date?"
Angie''s skeptical joke made L hide her head even lower. She just merely replied, "Mother, eat more,
talk less."
But Landon knew from the happy look of his granddaughter that she was really d and contented. He
secretly hoped that Harry and L would find a way to get back together for real.
Angie fed a teaspoon of soup to Nicole, then remembered, "The mother of that little boy messing with
Nicolest time tried to see you and asked you to give her husband a break and some space. What is
going on?"
But L didn''t know a thing about the incident. She raised her head to look at Nicole and said
confusingly, "Who is her husband?"
"Jill!" Jordan, who was silently eating his meal, looked up and said, "I don''t know him. Who is that
man?" Who was Jill? Why would her wife tell her to give this Jill some space? What had happened?
Angie stared at her son, and wondered whether Jordan did something to cause this conflict.
"His son lifted Nicole''s dress; his mother said something bad about Nicole; so I texted Nicole''s father.
It''s the right thing to do." Jordan said slowly after he finished a spoon of porridge.
Nicole''s father——Harry.
Well! This whole incident then made sense——Harry gave Jill a hard time. Harry would not just let this
slip.
"Uncle, where is my daddy? Who is my daddy?" Nicole suddenly interrupted, staring at Jordan with her
big eyes. She looked so innocent.
Tha naxt morning.
L, rafrashad and rajuvanatad for anothar work day, want to tha ta with Nic for braakfast. Angia
ncad at Nic, who was waaring a naw blua drass, and wondarad, "Whan did Nic gat this
drass?"
L smd whan sha saw har mothar stara at har granddaughtar''s drass. Nic said happily,
"Grandma, mommy said this drass was from un Harry. Un is so swaat, right?"
Evarybody than knaw what was going on. Thay knaw that Harry still thought that Nic was tha
daughtar of L and anothar man.
But ha was okay avan with that in mind——ha suraly lovad L with all his haart and soul.
"I somahow haard a halicoptarnd outsida tha vi." Whan tha halicoptar arrivadst night, Landon
was alraady at bad and didn''t gat up.
Landon''s suddan quastion ambarrassad L a bit. Sha coughad and than axinad, "Grandfathar, I

right?"
Landon than put on tha axprassion of disbaliaf. Tha othar thraa just raisad thair ayabrows and
skaptically lookad at L who was hiding har ambarrassmant by aating.
Did thay raally happan to saa Harry? "Wall L, did you raally go on a businass trip? Not a data?"
Angia''s skaptical joka mada L hida har haad avan lowar. Sha just maraly rapliad, "Mothar, aat mora,

But Landon knaw from tha happy look of his granddaughtar that sha was raally d and contantad. Ha
sacratly hopad that Harry and L would find a way to gat back togathar for raal.
Angia fad a taaspoon of soup to Nic, than ramambarad, "Tha mothar of that lit boy massing with
Nicst tima triad to saa you and askad you to giva har husband a braak and soma spaca. What is
going on?"
But L didn''t know a thing about tha incidant. Sha raisad har haad to look at Nic and said
confusingly, "Who is har husband?"
"Jill!" Jordan, who was sntly aating his maal, lookad up and said, "I don''t know him. Who is that
man?" Who was Jill? Why would har wifa tall har to giva this Jill soma spaca? What had happanad?
Angia starad at har son, and wondarad whathar Jordan did somathing to causa this conflict.
"His son liftad Nic''s drass; his mothar said somathing bad about Nic; so I taxtad Nic''s fathar.

Nic''s fathar——Harry.
Wall! This wh incidant than mada sansa——Harry gava Jill a hard tima. Harry would not justt this
slip.
"Un, whara is my daddy? Who is my daddy?" Nic suddanly intarruptad, staring at Jordan with har
big ayas. Sha lookad so innocant.
Jordan was at first eating with his chopsticks. Hearing this, he paused. He was taken aback by the
question. L promptly answered, "Nicole, mommy told you before that daddy is abroad, right? He
would be back soon."
This sad topic instantly changed the atmosphere at the dining table. They were all hit by a very sad
reality.
"Nicole, how about I go to school with you after the meal?" Harold basically never said anything when
eating. This time he was just trying to divert Nicole''s attention.
Kids are kids. Hearing that grandpa would break a rule to apany her to school, Nicole was thrilled.
She immediately nodded and continued to eat.
L felt relieved and said to Angie, "Mother, if she came to you again, you just let her turn to Harry."
Angie cast a confused look at her daughter and nodded her approval.
L then had a glimpse at Jordan, pondering why her big brother would tell this to Harry.
After the meal, she said goodbye to her daughter, and took Jordan''s car to thepany.
Inside thepany.
L contemted for a while, "These days, pregnancy rate peaks around the time of ovtion. She
only needs to wait for the result after this."
But if Harry and her were in such a good rtionship, he would certainlye to have sex with her.
She had her wish aplished. So she would now just try to stay away from him for the first three
months of this critical phase. In other words, they can''t have sex for the next few months.
Right! She could just find some reason to let him know that she was pissed and stay away.
identally, she logged onto WeChat and found that she was added to a new group.
It turned out Harry has added her to the CEO Group of SL Company. It had over 300 members that
pointed out how many branches thepany had.
After a while, another group appeared: East Group of Senior Executives of SL Company. The number
of members had reached itsrgest amount. So Harry had kicked someone out and added her in. She
was that valuable and important to him.
East Group? So did that mean that there were other West, North, and South Groups? SL rules! Harry
rules!
A new member set the whole group into active mode. One WeChat ount named, "Headquarters -
William" texted: "Wee! Newbie should send us red packets."
It was supposed to be as serious as a working group. But seeing that someone has started it, the
whole group all messaged for red packets.
What''s more, Joey, who was in the CEO group, also followed suit. He copied the text for red packets
and some other CEOs also joined him.
But what really set L speechless was that Harry also joined the red packet group. She didn''t know
that he could also interact with people. She thought at first that he was very emotionless and ignorant.
After this message, everybody clearly realized that L was Harry''s girl.
Then Harry transferred her 199, 999 for five times in a row.
She texted back quickly, "Thanks for Boss Lewis''s red packets."
L then sent over 20 red packets, 200 for each, to the two WeChat groups.
The East Group had more members so she sent a few packets more.
The group instantly grew excited, especially the East Group. It was bing a joyful chain! Several
thousand dors were not much for senior executives. But nobody, except Harry, had been that
generous before.
Joey this time was the one who texted, "Thanks for Miss Newman''s red packets. We really appreciate
the gesture."
All the other CEOs then offered their thanks. The group was as excited as the time when Harry sent the
red packets just a while ago.
The East Group were all ecstatic. Someone had as much as over 100 dors——pretty good luck!
For red packets, the amount was not that important. As long as the number was not as little as several
pennies, everybody would feel pretty good then. It was just like a game!
"Miss Newman rules. Thank you, Miss Newman!" What Swan said in the senior executives group made
everybody else join the thank you group.
L thought for a while, then encouraged and motivated the members, "That''s all right. We are all
working for a better SLpany. Let''s strive together and achieve more sess in the future."
Harry replied, "Nice words. You deserve a red packet."
...
Following these words, Harry sent a red packet to L in the CEO group. Others in the group all had a
tacit agreement not to get it. They respected the both of them that much. Though they were not face to
face with each other, L blushed and imed the red packet.
"Thank you, Boss Lewis. You''re still the best." She replied politely and sent new red packets in the
group.
In over ten minutes, all CEOs and some senior executives of SLpany all acknowledged L was
really loved by Boss Lewis.
They all thought well of L since she was quite generous. Yet they didn''t know that the money
actually came from Boss Lewis.
Then L dealt and epted many friend requests.
Requests were from the SLpany and the fan group she was in earlier. As long as she didn''t see
them as bad influences, she epted every request. She was feeling quite generous...and really
happy.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
