Chasing After My Beloved Wife novel Chapter 52

As for other things, Joye could not care too much. The child was growing in her womb every day. She had to ask Leonard Group to find a way for her to leave the capital.

"Business success depends on one’s ability. I have never planned on taking the orders from Beryl Group as I please.” But, there would be a lot of orders from the Beryl Group, and only then could the Leonard Group come out of its financial difficulties.

Seeing how sure Joye was of herself, Linda smiled again. "The way you are behaving now is very similar to that of the old President. You will make him proud.”

"Thank you, Linda."

Joye pursed her lips and smiled. She looked down at her belly, and there was a touch of warmth in her eyes. "Dad, Mom, Quill, I forgot to tell you good news. I'm pregnant."

It was what Joye had expected. The big order of the Beryl Group had a secondary effect, so there was a considerable change in the Leonard Group's market share.

"The heartless capitalists are making us work so hard every day. Look at my eyes. I look like a panda. Nowadays, I have to put on makeup just for my live broadcasts.”

In the apartment, Janina was adjusting the equipment and lighting for her live broadcast when she glared at Joye, complaining.

"Don’t worry. When everything is settled, you can sleep properly. You can even turn off the lights to do your live broadcasts.”

"Turn off the lights, live broadcast, and mess up on the bed?"

Janina rolled her eyes and checked her makeup. She then started her live broadcast and said, “Hello my beauties, it’s your girl, Janina.”

Joye shook her head with a smile and quietly exited the room.

As soon as Janina finished her greeting, the number of people in the live broadcast room increased rapidly. There were also commends showed up on the screen one after another, which made her so happy that her face almost twitched.

"Everyone is very enthusiastic today. Queena asked me why I didn't have a live broadcast for two weeks. Well, it’s a long story. My best friend was in the hospital, and then we had some problems with some capitalists, but I’ve missed you guys so much!”

After saying that, she threw the camera a big kiss. The screen turned pink with lots of sound effects. But suddenly, some rather inappropriate photos appeared.

Looking at the pink underwear in the photo, the corners of her eyes twitched. Why did it seem so familiar?

The comment area was also in an uproar because of this photo, and they were all discussing what was happening. Janina said, “Please don’t share these photos. It might land up in the wrong hands.”

"I found a bra. Can the owner please come and claim it!"

After being called out, the user replied quickly. Janina was in a bad mood all of a sudden. Who took her underwear from her luggage?

After finishing the live broadcast in a hurry, Janina put on her coat and rushed out of the room. Joye was sitting on the sofa, watching videos about babies. Seeing that Janina was going out like that, Joye was shocked.

"What are you doing? Did something happen during the broadcast?”

"Yes, I met a despicable b*stard. I'm going to kill him now!"

Slam! When the door was yanked open then slammed shut, Joye came to her senses. What was Janina talking about? Who was the b*stard she was referring to?

At the Red Sleeves Bar.

Connor shut the laptop and smiled. One of the waiters standing close by was wondering why Connor was so happy.

While he was thinking, a female customer entered. He quickly bowed and greeted, "Welcome."

"Connor Turner! As expected, you scum!"

Janina did not even look at the waiter. She strode over to Connor and snatched her laptop from his hands.

"Miss, what did I do? I tried to return the thing to its rightful owner. I am an upstanding citizen.”

After the laptop was snatched away, Connor glanced at Janina and smiled. He felt that she was rather sexy and had a feisty temper. She aroused his interest.

"You’re disgusting.”

An upstanding citizen? Nonsense! He should be locked up!

"Uh, can we have a meaningful conversation? I think that this is serendipity, don’t you agree?”

"No, it’s not!”

Last time, she had been unlucky enough to admit defeat. She didn't want her luggage and lost her documents. However, this scum unexpectedly intruded on her broadcast to make trouble and even exposed her pink underwear. This was all too much

"Well, we are fated because we met again so soon. Oh right, a waiter found a suitcase. Was it yours?”

Connor rubbed his hands together. He was used to women pining after him. Now that he met a girl who was treating him differently, he had to get used to it, but he found it quite pleasant.

"Connor, why are you asking me that when you already know the answer?”

Janina had been working overtime for a whole week. Besides, her period was about to arrive, so she was in a bad mood. She was livid.

If it wasn’t hers, why would he have snapped a photo of the underwear and sent it out on the broadcast?

"Don't worry. After all, there are also valuable things in it. You have to be careful so as not to be taken advantage of, alright?"

She did not want to waste any more words on him. She reached out to suppress her anger. "Then please return my luggage to me."

"No, I haven't confirmed whether the luggage belongs to you or not."

Connor patted her outstretched hand. Janina was very angry. "My ID card and passport are inside. Doesn’t that prove that it is mine?"

"Is there an ID card or passport? I didn't see them."

Janina wanted to punch him.

Janina gritted her teeth in hatred. This b*stard had opened her suitcase yet he was still putting on an act.

"Then how do you want me to prove it?"

"Hm, it's very simple. As long as you wear the things in the photos and the size fits, I will immediately give you the suitcase. What do you think?"

Connor went closer, looking at Janina cunningly. Just as Janina was about to slap him, he grabbed her by the wrists.

"Do you need your luggage because of the man's photo on the laptop?”

There was a rare coldness in his eyes. He too found it odd. As the second son of one of the noblest families in the city, and a well-known playboy, why would he care about a photo of a man who was nobody?
