Spoil My Lovely Wife novel Chapter 41

Suddenly, the phone rang sharply.

It broke the silence of the room.

Jessica’s face blushed and she was afraid that she couldn’t control herself. Then she frowned and said, “Go and pick up your phone…”

She was not only afraid of him but also afraid that she couldn’t resist him.

She felt so lucky that the phone was ringing at the right time.

Jessica turned around hurriedly and rushed out of the bathroom without caring about her wet clothes.

She slammed the door closed and left Louis, who was naked in the bathroom. His eyebrows tightly furrowed and said in a lower voice.

“Hello, Brenda…”

The fourth day, in the morning.

Jessica was woken up by the ringtone.

She opened her drowsy eyes and pressed the button to answer the phone.

“Jessica, why didn’t you come to the company? Mr. Carter is already here! Come back to work now, or I will ask Mr. Carter to fire you!” The phone call was from Linda.

“What?” Jessica suddenly woke up but she was so confused, “…Mr. Carter is already in the company?”

She jumped out of the bed and stepped on the mat barefoot and rushed out of the bedroom.

“Yes, our excellent Mr. Carter is here for work though he had an accident a few days ago. Jessica, you are just a secretary, and what are you doing now? How shameful!” Linda said in a sharp voice.

“I know…” Jessica touched her forehead and she had a hangover and then she said in a perfunctory manner…”

Jessica rushed to the mansion of the Carters Group.

There were lots of media gathering at the gate of the mansion. And lots of cameras were focusing on the Carter.

Among the crowd, the reporters were all gossiping.

“The Carters announce suddenly that the bid for the ‘Shine Project’ will be held at one o’clock this afternoon. How crazy are they!”

“It is ten days ahead of schedule. Luckily, we are ready at all times so that we are not in a flurry. We must get the firsthand report today.”

“I heard that there are lots of companies being eliminated from the list. There must be lots of them who would make an exhibition of themselves…”

“Mr. Carter is so cruel. I guess he did it just to stop someone cheating so that the bid is ahead of the schedule.”

“Hey, I heard the rumors that the international superstar Brenda White was back to Chicago few days ago. Do you think that the purpose of ‘Shine Project’ is to pave the way for her to open up the domestic market?”

“No way! Brenda White is the superstar in entertainment circle. How could she be mentioned in the same breath with the Carters Group, such a high end financial economy field?”

“What? Don’t you hear the rumor say that the ‘Shine Project’ was the gift for Brenda Whit which was sent by Mr. Carter?”

“Seriously? Is that true?”

“What’s the relationship between Mr. Carter and Brenda White?”

“We have no idea, but they might be in a relationship.”

“Really? How about the daughter of the Mayor Joyce Davis? Is she engaged with Mr. Carter?”

“What the hell! The upper class is such a mess…”

Jessica was upset when she heard what the media were gossiping.

She frowned and rushed into the elevator.

Today was the first bid for the “Shine Project”. When she though that the Wilsons Group was on the list, she was nervous suddenly.

But who was Brenda White?

The elevator opened.

She walked out of the elevator quickly. Nancy saw Jessica and then she came closer to her, “Jessica, don’t think that you are supported by Mr. Carter’s dad so that you can do whatever you want. There will be a bid this afternoon at one, if you make any trouble, no one can help you out!”

Jessica frowned but she didn’t say anything.

She nodded her head perfunctorily and then she rushed to Louis’s office and lifted her hands and then knocked the door slightly.

“Come in.”

Jessica could hear Louis lower voice from the office.

She was nervous and then she opened the door…

Louis was wearing well cut tailor-made suit and he had combed his hair so well but he still looked as cold as the usual.

“Mr. Carter…” Jessica called his name in a lower voice.

However, Louis didn’t even look at him but kept reading the documents.
