Secretary's Secret Lover -
Chapter 623 Obscurity and Ambiguity
Chapter 623: Chapter 623 Obscurity and Ambiguity
Ellen’s face turned gloomy.
Aaliyah ignored that. As soon as she saw Ellen’s attractive face, she didn’t want to leave Ellen in peace.
"Don’t put on airs. I know you’re a bitch. Weren’t you Jamie’s secret lover back then? You sold yourself to gain benefits for the Robbins family. Unfortunately, you’re useless and hopeless..."
This hurt Ellen’s feelings.
Aaliyah should have known better than say such stupid words to her.
After all, the Robbins family was destroyed because of Jamie!
If it weren’t for Jamie’s repeated threats, the Robbins family wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Seeing Ellen’s embarrassed expression, Aaliyah thought that her words might have made Ellen too ashamed to raise her head.
This made Aaliyah happy.
She crossed her arms in front of her chest and sneered coldly, "It seems that your parents are not good people. That’s why you did such a shameless thing..."
Aaliyah was talking nonsense and slandering her at will.
Ellen couldn’t take it anymore. She raised her hand and slapped Aaliyah.
However, before her hand could land on Aaliyah’s face, it was grabbed by another cold hand
The strength was so strong that Ellen felt like her wrist was about to be crushed. Then her face turned pale.
Seeing this, Aaliyah leaned over like a timid lovebird. "Honey, it’s lucky that you’re here. I was scared to death. This crazy woman wants to slap me..."
Her delicate tone sounded completely different from her previous one, which made Ellen feel creepy.
"Young lady, why did you slap my girlfriend?"
A cold voice sounded above her head. It sounded cold but strangely familiar.
Ellen raised her head and saw that the incandescent light above her head was particularly dazzling. She narrowed her eyes and saw the sharp jawline of the man, and then a gentle and elegant face popped into her sight.
It was Kenyon.
It was Kenyon!
In an instant, Ellen’s eyes widened and her heart began to beat wildly.
"He’s back?" She thought.
"When did he come back? Why didn’t I know anything about it?" She wondered.
Recently, Ellen had been busy with the lawsuit. For the rest of the time, she hardly went out just to avoid bumping into Jamie.
She often read the financial news. Whenever she saw that Jamie was busy with work, she would go to the sanatorium to visit her mother.
However, her mother was still the same. Her mother didn’t recognize her at all. The only person her mother could recognize was Jamie.
At that time, Ellen was absorbed by Kenyon. She felt happy to see him, but also a little aggrieved by the difficulties she encountered.
Because of his care all the time, this kind of grievance was almost spontaneous. When she saw him, her eyes would naturally swell with tears without control.
"Ken... is your hand all right?" Ellen asked with concern.
She nearly forgot that Aaliyah was next to her. She was just concerned about whether his health had improved.
But when she thought of his strength just now, she knew there should be no problem with his hand.
Judging from his posture, his legs should be fine too.
She finally let out a sigh of relief.
But there was no warmth in the man’s eyes when he looked at her, and even his expression looked inexplicably complicated.
Before Ellen didn’t realize it. She was about to say something...
"Boom!"
Aaliyah slapped her in the face.
"Bitch, why would you seduce my uncle? And now you even want to seduce my boyfriend in front of me. Are you going to seduce any man you randomly bump into in a street?"
Aaliyah’s face was full of disdain. She looked down at the woman in front of her.
She was angry that Ellen had seduced her uncle, but now she even wanted to seduce her own man.
She thought Ellen didn’t deserve it!
Ellen felt a burning pain on her face. The slap sobered her up quite a bit, and only then did she realize that something was wrong.
How could Kenyon pretend that he didn’t know her?
All of a sudden, her heart sank.
It was not that she was doubtful, but that she had never thought that the Corben family might have played some tricks in this treatment. They might have made Kenyon lose his memory...
Before she could think further, Aaliyah had already taken Kenyon’s arm and said, "Kenyon, let’s go. Don’t pay attention to this lunatic. She is just a bitch. She will feel uncomfortable if she doesn’t hook up with men for one minute."
Kenyon looked at Ellen and saw that her eyes were red with tears. For some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable.
But his mind was blank, and he had no memory of the woman in front of him.
Aaliyah held Kenyon’s arm and urged him to get in the car.
Kenyon stopped pondering over the matter and walked to the front seat.
Without thinking, Ellen caught up with him in a hurry and grabbed Kenyon’s arm. Before she could speak, tears streamed down her face.
"Ken... I’m Ellen... Have you forgotten me?"
Ellen looked so beautiful when she cried.
Her lips were red and black, and her face was so fair that it looked like crystal, so fragile and delicate.
A familiar thought flashed through Kenyon’s mind, but it was quickly dispelled by Aaliyah’s sudden scream.
"Are you crazy?" Aaliyah pushed her hard.
Caught off guard, Ellen’s body trembled unsteadily, and then she fell to the ground.
The excruciating pain in her knees made her realize that her knees must have been broken.
After a while, blood flowed down her khaki pants. She looked miserable.
Seeing how sick she was, Aaliyah was afraid that she would accidentally hurt her badly. After all, Jamie would forgive her because he seemed still quite interested in Ellen.
She couldn’t hurt her badly all at once, or she would be scolded by Jamie.
She pulled Kenyon, who was standing still, and said, "Kenyon, let’s go. This woman is crazy. She might hurt you..."
Kenyon lowered his eyes.
He didn’t know why, but something seemed to be attracting him and making his feet rooted to the ground. He just couldn’t go with Aaliyah.
"Kenyon!" Aaliyah called out his name again. It was obvious that she was unhappy.
She saw Kenyon’s eyes were riveted to that woman.
She despised him in her heart. "What’s so good about her?"
It was just that Ellen had a fuller chest and her lips were plumper, and her face was more charming...
These men seemed to be reluctant to walk away when they saw her.
She had no choice but to make a trick. She covered her stomach and screamed, "Kenyon, my stomach aches so much. It hurts so much..."
Like an octopus, Aaliyah clung to Kenyon, who had no choice but to carry her back to the car.
After that, he didn’t spare Ellen another glance and drove away.
Ellen sat on the ground and watched the car driving away. Her eyes were misty with tears.
Her heart seemed to be blocked by something, and she felt a dull pain in her chest.
At this time, a passerby saw her sitting on the ground.
He came over and patted her on the shoulder with concern. "Miss, are you all right?"
These words made Ellen cry, her tears rolling down her cheeks like pearls falling off a string.
The passerby was startled. "Miss, what’s wrong? I... I can take you to the hospital, but I have to record it on my phone and leave evidence. Don’t try to blackmail me..."
After all, Ellen cried so miserably, and as a beauty, she looked so beautiful and pitiable. The man couldn’t bear to leave her behind, so he picked up his mobile phone to record.
"No, there’s no need," Ellen said painfully, enduring the pain in her heart.
When the passerby saw her pale face, he asked suspiciously, "Are you sure? You look terrible, Miss."
"Well, no need... Thank you."
Enduring the pain, Ellen said that he didn’t want to disappoint a kind-hearted person.
She couldn’t go to the hospital now. The court would be held the day after tomorrow. She couldn’t make any mistakes at that time.
Even though Kenyon had made a huge blow to her, she was not in the mood to ponder over it.
There would be a tough battle waiting for her tomorrow.
Ellen struggled to her feet and hobbled to a bench and sat down. She wanted to take a break.
Before she could recover from the shock, she heard a click.
Ellen slid off the bench without any consciousness.
"Miss! Miss! Is there anyone who can call an ambulance for me..."
Ellen was immediately sent to the hospital.
When the doctor gave her an infusion, her cell phone rang.
The passerby who sent her to the hospital didn’t contact her family, so he quickly picked it up. "Hello?"
It was silent on the phone, and there was not even a sound of breathing.
Just when the passers-by thought that the call might not have been connected, a cold and dignified voice sounded.
"Who are you?"
The voice was so cold and deep that the passers-by inexplicably felt a sense of oppression and couldn’t help shivering.
"I’m the one who sent her to the hospital. This lady fainted at the entrance of the Peace Restaurant, and now she’s in the New York-Presbyterian Hospital."
Before the passer-by could finish his words, a beep came from the line.
The man was stunned. "Could it be that the person didn’t want to pay me the medical expenses? Could that be the reason he hung up so quickly?" The passer-by wondered.
Ellen’s phone was locked after the call, so the man couldn’t open it. He could only wait for her to wake up before making any plans.
In less than ten minutes, something happened.
The sound of footsteps could be heard. When the man turned his head, he immediately saw a handsome man walking over quickly, as if he was coming toward him.
Coincidentally, he knew who the coming person was and hurried up to him. "Mr. McBride, why are you here?"
Jamie didn’t know him. Jamie only frowned and glanced at him.
The passerby introduced himself, "I’m Louis Laurence, the business representative of IKEA. I have bid for the real estate project launched by your company once."
Jamie still couldn’t remember this man. So many obscure people wanted to see him, so he naturally wouldn’t remember them one by one.
Louis could understand that. After all, there were so many people at the scene at that time, and his company was not so eye-catching. He didn’t even shake hands with Jamie. How could he expect Jamie to remember him at all?
He thought he might just have to get familiar with Jamie and see if there was any chance for them to cooperate in the future.
"Did you send her here?" Jamie asked.
Louis was stunned for a moment before he realized that Jamie was talking about this beautiful woman.
"Yes, I happened to be having dinner at Peace Restaurant. When I came out, I saw this young lady sitting on the ground and her leg was broken. I asked her if she wanted to help, but she refused. I didn’t expect that she would faint as soon as she got up..."
Louis was babbling.
That was because Louis could tell that this woman must be someone important to Jamie since she could make this big shot like Jamie show up for her in person. He had to explain it in detail to make Jamie remember him.
"She fell?" Jamie only said three words, and Louis started babbling again.
"Yes, she fell because she was pushed by a girl. This lady seemed to know the girl’s boyfriend. She went forward to pull the man but was pushed by that girl, and then the girl scolded her."
Louis didn’t continue what the girl had said to Ellen. Anyway, it sounded quite unpleasant so he decided not to tell Jamie.
He was waiting for the driver in front of the door, so he had heard what happened thoroughly.
"Later, this young lady sat on the ground and cried very hard, so I came forward and asked a few questions."
After Louis finished his report, Jamie’s face darkened.
He knew who the man and girl were.
"Alright, you can leave now," Jamie said coldly.
Louis saw that Jamie’s calm face suddenly darkened. He thought that he had said something wrong and immediately regretted it.
He started to blame himself for talking so much.
"Why didn’t I tell him all this? I just didn’t know what to say or what not to say!" He regretted.
"Okay, then I’ll leave." Louis left with regrets.
As soon as he went out, Jamie’s assistant came out to stop him.
The assistant took out a business card and said, "Mr. Laurence, you can send your application to Mr. Howard of the department. This is my business card. Go and find Mr. Howard with my business card."
Louis’s face suddenly lit up.
He took the business card with both hands and thanked the assistant repeatedly.
This time, he was in huge luck. The assistant meant that as long as there was no problem with the bidding request, he would win the bid this time.
That was a commission of millions of dollars.
He would be rich!
"Thank you, thank you..." Louis almost knelt in front of the assistant.
Now, he was even willing to kowtow in front of him.
"You’re welcome. Mr. McBride said thank you for what you did today, Mr. Laurence," The assistant said politely.
Louis understood that he had done the right thing.
The person he saved was someone very important to Jamie.
He secretly made up his mind to be a good person in the future and do good deeds every day.
In this way, good luck would naturally fall on him.
It would just be like what happened today.
Ellen was lying in the ward.
Her breathing was even as if she had fallen asleep.
However, the tears hanging from the corners of her eyes were dazzling.
All of a sudden, Jamie got a little angry.
He stroked the corner of her eyes with his calloused fingers and pressed down hard, wiping the tears away over and over again, as if he could not vent his anger...
After a while, the corners of Ellen’s eyes turned red because of his rubbing.
Even in a coma, Ellen wasn’t completely unconscious. She frowned and let out a soft moan.
Only then did Jamie withdraw his hand and gently stroke it. He didn’t do anything else.
Ellen woke up at dawn.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw his enlarged face. He was sitting by her bed with a financial magazine in his hand.
She didn’t know if this man hadn’t slept all night or had just arrived.
Ellen panicked for a moment. Then she clutched the blanket tightly, her eyes looking alert.
She didn’t know how Jamie appeared in front of her.
Before she could even realize where she was, she blurted out, "Why are you here?"
He put down the magazine in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly. "What are you covering?"
Ellen covered her body with the quilt even tighter and said with a stern expression, "I’m asking you!"
Instead of answering her question, he sneered and said, "You don’t have to cover your body. I have seen it all."
