“Did you often have meals together?" he asked.

Chantel shook her head immediately.

"No, we didn't. Don't take it the wrong way."

Gifford raised her chin so that she was looking him in the eye and warned her, "I hope you are not Lying to me." "What?

Of course I'm not lying. Don't think too much about it. Red and I are just regular friends. If you don't believe me, you can ask Rika about thao

Gifford seemed determined to make things difficult for her.

"Why should

I ask Rika about it? She's not with you every day. How could she know everything you do? Besides, between you and me, she doesn't take me as her brother but you as her sister. She would have no problem helping you to deceive me!"

After Erica ran away for four years, he never knew where she was even though he was her brother. Chantel, on the other hand, had always known

Erica's whereabouts. Gifford was heartbroken when he learned that.

Chantel asked him patiently, "Then tell me, what should I do to make you believe that there is nothing between me and Red?"

“It's easy." Gifford smiled.

“ALL you need to do is announce our marriage."

At first, Chantel didn't know what to say.

But after thinking it through for a long time, she felt that it was too sudden to announce such big news. In the end, she refused Gifford's idea on the excuse that she needed time.

Furious, Gifford couldn't stop thinking that this woman was getting more and more disobedient with time. First, she stood him up. Then, this gossip about her being with another man came out. Now, he asked her to announce their marriage, but she refused. He thought she needed to be taught a Lesson as soon as possible.

In the meantime, Chantel didn't think she was on vacation at all. She wanted to spend more time with her son during the day and sleep more at night, but Gifford wouldn't let her sleep at all. After two days of supposed rest, she seemed more tired than she was at work.

At the entrance of Hilton Group, two Bentley cars stopped at the front.

Immediately, four children in blue rushed out of the vehicles, each carrying a Limited edition toy 66K assault rifle.

The kids ran inside the company's first floor in a line from the youngest to the eldest before Erica could even get out of the car.

She wanted to stop the four boys, but they were fast. By the time she walked into the company, they were already inside the CEO's exclusive elevator.

Erica sighed helplessly. She came to see Matthew, but as the four children didn't have to go to the kindergarten that morning, she decided to bring them along.

However, she was beginning to regret her decision. If she had known it would be so tiring and troublesome to bring the boys, she would have come alone.

After taking another elevator to the CEO's floor, she heard from afar the children's Laughter coming from the office.

Quickening her pace, she reached the CEO's office door and opened it.
