Chapter 730: Jennie's Incident

Jared's lips curled into a smile, his eyes sparkling like stars. Even Tina, who prided herself on being accustomed to good looks, was dazzled by his god-like beauty. He was hers. A fierce possessiveness rose from the depths of her heart, quickly reaching her eyes. Unconcealed, Tina threw her soaked dress aside, her pale arms encircling Jared's neck.

"What are you smiling at?"

Jared's eyes flickered.

"I've already shared my thoughts. Now is not the right time, so it must be endured for a while."

Tina scoffed, "Shameless, who's really being put out here?"

"Aren't you concerned about Elsa?"

Jared asked, just before their lips met, posing one last question for the evening.

Tina had no chance to reply as the ambiguous moans in the bathroom filled the air. In the haze of her mind, Tina thought she heard her phone ring. The next second, Jared pulled her into an endless sea of desire, and she forgot everything. Reed family.

The clock pointed straight at midnight.

Hugo sat on the bed, sleepless. He held his phone, watching Jennie unconscious on the monitor. Looking at the email on his computer, it felt as though a massive stone weighed down on his chest, making it hard to breathe. "I want to see the news of Reed Group severing the endorsement contract with Juliet by tomorrow," the email read.

These few lines had left him in fear for days, and now his heart trembled again. He opened and closed Tina's contact in his phone, looking years older all of a sudden. His once gentle and resilient eyes were now filled with world-weariness. After a long while, a deep sigh echoed in the empty room.

What should he do now?

The next day.

Tina and Jared decided not to follow the path others expected of them, which suddenly gave them much more time. Seizing the opportunity, they brought Hayden to the Reed family.
