Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Dazzling fireworks were seen again. The staff took off the silk covering and revealed the name of the cruise ship. “Annalise.” “Oh, oh. That’s really one hell of a name. Why should I suffer like this?” “Haha, that was really one hell of a name indeed. Annalise. Haha, I’ve always wondered if it would be Victoria or Monroe. I didn’t expect the ship to be called Annalise. It’s simple and straightforward. I also feel that it’s too damn romantic.” “That’s right. Annalise is the real winner in life. Her husband is awesome, her father is awesome, her mentor is awesome, and she’s also awesome herself. Now that I think about it, she’s really outstanding, but many people are unwilling to admit it. Back at Old Mr. Parks’ birthday banquet, her calligraphy was really stunning.” “Yes, yes, yes. I knew that her handwriting was good. She must have studied under a famous teacher, but they insisted that she was taught by an old farmer in the countryside.” “Haha…” From then on. Whether it was those who belittled Annalise or those who slandered Annalise, they all became envious of her and looked up to her. The name “Annalise” shone brightly under the night sky. The cruise ship sailed for three days and returned to the terminal. The three-day journey was over. A lot happened in these three days. Annalise lived with her mentors, Old Mr. Parks, Old Mr. Xander, her parents, and her brother. With the exception of the first day of the wedding when they ate the banquets, they all did their own thing. On the third day, Cash was hungry. He said that he felt like drinking some booze. Then, he asked Joseph, “Do you want to drink?” Joseph was the proudest among the mentors. He rubbed his chin and said, “Drinking is fine. Let’s drink a little.” He looked so proud. Annalise knew that her mentors missed her cooking the most. Actually, she had wanted to cook for them for a long time. She had been really busy with the wedding. After the wedding, she was finally free. She immediately got someone to prepare the ingredients and cooked personally. Julian was afraid of Annalise getting tired, so he went to the kitchen to help. Heather also had to go to the kitchen to help. Julian told her to rest well, and that he would take good care of Annalise. Heather looked at Julian’s meticulous appearance with a gratified expression. In the room, her mentors were drinking liquor, playing drinking games, and eating the various appetizers that Annalise had prepared for them. It was as if they had suddenly returned to how things were a few years ago. They were filled with emotions. They were relieved that Annalise had found a good husband, but they were also sad that Annalise had less time to be with them after that. A few of her mentors were drunk. James, who had always been disciplined, was helped into his room by Julian. Julian put him on the bed, took off his shoes, and tucked him in. Julian was about to leave when James said, “I’ll leave Anna to you.” Julian’s heart skipped a beat. He was touched and uncomfortable at the same time. He said solemnly, “Sir, don’t worry. I will definitely cherish Annie.” James continued, “Once I leave, I might not come back for eight to 10 years. I want to protect my country. If you treat Annalise badly, I will come all the way back even if I have to leave everyone behind.” “Sir, don’t worry. I will protect Annalise with my life,” Julian said. “Alright,” James replied. His lips curled into a cold smile, and his eyes shone with a cold light. He looked in the direction of Preston and thought to himself, “You’re lucky this time.” When he looked at Preston, Preston was looking at him as well. Their eyes met in the air. Jared narrowed his eyes and did not hide his. disgust. Preston looked at Jared with a faint smile. The mockery in his eyes was obvious, and he did not stand on ceremony with Jared. Meeting Preston’s half-smiling eyes, Jared was filled with anger. He snorted heavily and followed the crowd down the cruise ship. Just like when they came, the terminal was very lively. Countless luxury cars left one after another, and the place became a little more relaxed, no longer as crowded as before. Jared walked toward his driver. Just as he was about 300 feet away, a pair of handcuffs suddenly appeared in front of him. Jared looked up through the handcuffs and saw a few police officers. “You’re Jared Blake?” The officer asked. Jared frowned. “And you are?” The police officer showed his ID and said sternly, “You’re suspected of a murder attempt. Please come with us.” “What murder attempt? I don’t understand what you’re talking about.” Jared was a little frustrated. “What murder?” He thought. His men didn’t Besides, if Preston really had evidence, he wondered if they would have waited until now, thinking that they would have called the police long ago. “Please come with us!” The police looked even more serious. “Hey, a police case requires evidence, right? You can’t casually get in the way of us the citizens, right? If I were just an ordinary nobody, my wasted time would have meant little. But as the person in charge of Blake Corporation, my time is worth tens of millions of dollars every minute. I really don’t have time for this…” Jared said impatiently. “Jared, we are arresting you according to the law! Please come with us!” A police officer showed the arrest warrant. Jared was speechless. He frowned again and looked around for Preston. Coincidentally, Preston was standing in front of his car and looking at him coldly. Jared narrowed his eyes and retracted his gaze. He calmly said to the police, “There’s no problem with me coming with you. I wasn’t involved in any murder attempt.” The police said seriously, “Don’t worry. The law is fair. We won’t catch the wrong guy.” Jared did not say anything else. With a dark expression, he followed the police into their car. In the distance, Layla came out from the cruise ship. He saw Jared being handcuffed and taken away. She scoffed at the scene and thought to herself, “How stupid. Fortunately, I didn’t participate in Preston’s murder attempt.” She calmly disembarked from the cruise ship. However, after a while, a pair of cold handcuffs appeared in front of her. “What?” Layla frowned. “This was definitely a mistake,” she thought. “Layla Parks, is it? Please come with us!” The police officer said seriously. “Are you guys mistaken? What did I do?” Layla frowned even more. She did not participate in Preston’s murder attempt. At most, she asked two girls to ruin Annalise’s pregnancy. None of them succeeded. Moreover, even if she succeeded, she did not leave any evidence behind. It was impossible for her to even have a recording of anything. That was because she had arranged to meet the two. little girls in the room to talk about the details. Seeing that Julian didn’t pursue the issue with those two, Layla figured that he couldn’t have called the police. She deemed that the police must have made a mistake. “Layla Ziegler, right? Please come with us,” the police said solemnly.
