Love Is Fair by Kerri

Chapter 053 What Was She Up To?

Slap. As soon as Andy’s voice died away, his father smacked him so hard that he spun and almost fell. Shawn’s cursing resounded through the office. “Shut up, you wretch!”

Owen was just sitting there watching the drama. He remained silent the entire time. Andy received a beating and a glare from his father before he behaved himself. Compared with his cynical and unruly son, Shawn was an old fox who knew when to advance or retreat. He was aware of the importance of having a great patron and playing to the score. “No offense, Mr. Moore. Andy is spoiled by me and only into love affairs.” Shawn smiled elegantly, “Men should focus on their careers, and romance is just icing on the cake. We should never let it mess with our judgment. Don’t you think?”

Owen raised his eyes and looked at the man indifferently. “Mr. Carter, are you

talking about me?” The smile on Shawn’s face froze. In the past, he could sit, talk, and laugh with Owen, but now he needed a favor from the man and could barely maintain his composure.

Although Owen was not much older than Andy, his aura was even stronger than that of Shawn. He was naturally awe-inspiring. His temperament was based on his strength and ability. “No, there is no way you’re an emotional person.” “So, I have my reasons to stop partnering with Artistic Talent.”

Owen slightly leaned back in the chair. At a raise of the hand, Jose came up and handed Shawn a stack of files. The latter had a bad feeling but took it nevertheless. He flipped through a few pages before his face darkened. From behind him, Andy had a glimpse of the content and turned pale. “How come you have this?” Andy’s eyes rounded as he looked at Owen. “Where did you get it? Are you behind all of this?”

Agitated, he rushed over to question Owen, but Jose intercepted him and

Eve sat on the toilet, fidgeting. If things went on like this, she would be driven crazy by Hailey. Then again, she didn’t think it was wise to clash with Hailey head-on. That would not do her any good. She didn’t want to do this alone anymore. She needed help. Biting her lips, Eve mulled it over and made a decision. She dialed another number and pinned her hope on it. “Hailey.” The butler took Eve to Hailey’s room. Eve politely greeted Hailey rather than shout abuse like before. Hailey did the final touch to the carving and hummed indifferently. Her practice today had paid off. She glanced at Eve and took her eyes back. “I gave you two days to memorize it.
