Chapter 120 Loneliness.
After Laurel hung up the phone, she didn’t dwell too much on the matter. She knew that the Reed
family had a vast network of connections, making it easy to investigate Leon.
Laurel speculated that Hayden’s exceptional abilities in the previous life were likely connected to the
support from the Reed family.
But what she couldn’t understand was why the Reed family didn’t let Erik become the owner and
instead supported Hayden.
She had not heard that the Gilbert family and the Reed family had a good relationship.
Laurel couldn’t figure it out, so she stopped thinking about it.
One day she would know.
Moreover.
She is now standing on the same front line as Hayden, and it would be best if she had the help of the
Reed family.
She focused all her attention on her work.
She forgot about time as soon as she started working.
When she realized, it was already 8 o’clock in the evening.
She stretched her lazy waist.

She looked at Mike, who was still waiting for her in the office with great respect.
Mike had no complaints and was as quiet as if he didn’t exist.
At that moment, she carried a hint of apology, “Sorry, I have. just started working and it will take me
some extra time.”
“It’s okay. Mr. Gilbert has already briefed me. I know you will be very busy.”
“You called me Laurel.”
“Mr. Gilbert did not allow.”
Laurel was speechless.
Hayden didn’t let Zion call her that, nor did she let Mike do so.
She took a deep breath and remained calm.
Anyway, she didn’t need to care about a title.
She said, “I finished work.”
“Yes.”
Laurel walked out of the company with Mike.
Mike drove the car and it was very quiet inside.
Laurel was feeling tired. She gazed at the neon lights outside Rosegrad City, lost in thought.
Occasionally, when she quieted down, she would wonder if
everything she was experiencing was truly real.
Could it be that these were just a dream?!

The sudden ringing of the telephone brought Laurel’s thoughts back.
She glanced at the incoming call, answered it, “Shelley.”
“Do you know who I saw in Acme Club?” Shelley said mysteriously.
“Nathan,”
“I didn’t want to hear that name!” Shelley said unhappily.
Laurel chuckled lightly and asked, “So, who did you see?”
“Hayden”

“Didn’t you see that he wasn’t quite normal?” Laurel remained indifferent.
“I also saw a woman next to him.”
“…Isn’t it normal for him to have a woman by his side?!” Laurel remained calm.
Laurel should not have had any emotions.
It was just…
Hayden said that he was loyal to her.
Indeed, a man’s words are not to be trusted.
The words Hayden said just yesterday, he couldn’t even stick. to them for a day.
“He was your husband. He had other women around him, and you actually say this is normal?!”
Shelley’s voice was

noticeably raised.
She was still waiting for Laurel to witness the scene!
“Me and Hayden were not what you thought.”
“Wasn’t it the way I thought?”
“Anyway, whatever he did, it had nothing to do with me,”
Laurel didn’t want to explain.

“Are you saying…” Shelley elongated her tone, summarizing, “that you and Hayden were legal
partners!”
“Did I guess it right?!” Shelley concluded confidently, not receiving any response from Laurel.
Laurel was speechless. “Just stop guessing about me and Hayden, I know my boundaries.”
“You were betrayed.”
“Shelley, you had time to care about my matters, why not think more about yourself,” Laurel didn’t want
to continue this topic anymore.
“What happened to me?! I was fine. Paul loved me a lot,” Shelley said smugly.
“I don’t know what to say to you, so I won’t say anything,” Laurel inexplicably became a little angry.
Laurel felt that no matter what she said, Shelley would not believe her.

“You don’t have to say it.” Shelley was also a little angry. “One day, when a woman gets pregnant and
comes to threaten you, you will regret it!”
“Do you think this is a romance novel?!”
“Novels originated from life.”
Sometimes Laurel really couldn’t argue with Shelley.
“I hung up the phone,” Shelley directly ended the call.
At the moment Shelley hung up the phone, she was still a little angry.
She stared at another woman near Hayden, who they were behaving too intimately with.
Hayden was a bad man!
She turned around and went back to the private room.
Everyone in the private room was indulging themselves to the fullest.
Shelley also indulged for a while. The moment she calmed down, she suddenly felt a sense of
loneliness after the revelry. It was as if her heart was empty.
She leaned against the sofa, recalling what Laurel had said.
Laurel said to let her take care of her emotions.
Externally, Shelley always claimed that she had a great relationship with Paul. However, in reality,
apart from being

She approached him, and he would avoid her.
She wanted to be intimate with him, but he would avoid it.

She said she wanted to marry him, but he said to wait for a while.
Shelley chuckled self–deprecatingly.
Finally.
Paul really felt that he was not worthy of her, or he simply didn’t like her at all.
If Paul didn’t like her, why would he take the initiative to confess his feelings to her?
Shelley drank alone, using alcohol to suddenly alleviate her depressed mood.
Long time no see.
Shelley felt drunk.
She rarely got drunk.
Actually, she wasn’t too drunk.
It was a feeling between being drunk and not being drunk, which was the favorite state of every
alcoholic.
So at that moment, she excitedly walked out of the private
room.
Her footsteps were a bit disordered.

“Ah!” Shelley suddenly, accidentally fell into the arms of a
man.
The moment she fell in, she inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity.
This familiarity made her much bolder.
She boldly touched the man’s chest.
Shelley felt that the man’s chest was full of elasticity.
She really liked the texture.
She toughed it, “Your pectoral muscles are amazing.”
The man remained motionless.
His body was obviously still a bit stiff.
“Do you have abs?” Shelley asked.
Shelley didn’t look up at the person’s face, she ran her hand down his abdominal muscles. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Shelley was satisfied.
She felt the man’s sexiness through his clothes.
Nathan’s throat twitched.
He tensed his body and looked at the bold woman in front of him.
He wondered if Shelley would regret it when she woke up and realized that the person she had flirted
with was him.
He reached out and pushed her.

In fact.
He couldn’t resist teasing.
“You are so stingy!” Shelley complained.
“I took you back home,” Nathan said.

“What are you going back for? I want to go dancing,” Shelley refused, “Come dance with me…”
Shelley pulled Nathan’s hand and they left together.
Shelley had no idea who the person she was pulling was.
After Shelley’s death.
Erik watched the backs of Shelley and Nathan as they left.
He was convinced that Nathan would definitely fall in love with Shelley.
