Chapter 144

“I have money. It’s enough for us to spend.” Angeline chuckled and placed the card in the car beforeshutting the door and waving Evander goodbye.

The man did not bother wasting his breath arguing over it. Hence, he nodded at her and drove away.

Angeline’s lips were pursed tightly as she watched his car disappear from her sight. No matter howdesperate she was, she would never accept Evander’s card.

After all, she was always misunderstood for approaching Evander because of money. If she acceptedthe card, it would make things difficult for her when they broke up.

With that, she stepped into the building and took the elevator to go to the third floor. That was where allthe luxury brands’ stores were.

Soon, she arrived at a jewelry store. After reading the signboard and making sure she was at the rightstore, she strode into the area.

Just then, the staff who was standing at the door approached and greeted respectfully, “Welcome!”

“Hello.” Angeline smiled. With that, she scanned every piece of jewelry behind the glass display but didnot replace what she wanted.

Noticing Angeline’s furrowed brows, the staff hurriedly reminded, “Miss, you can also tell me what kindof jewelry you’re looking for, so I can recommend some to you.”

Thus, Angeline took out the men’s ring given by Hanson and handed it to the staff. “This is from yourstore, isn’t it? Is there a ring of the same design?”

The staff took the ring and discussed it with a few colleagues before answering her politely, “I’m reallysorry, miss. This is a limited edition ring from six years ago. Back then, our company invited a famous

designer from Marsingfill to design three special pieces of jewelry for our company. There was only onepiece for each design. Perhaps you can take a look at the others in our store.”

Angeline was delighted to hear that. If there were only one piece of jewelry for each design, then herchances of looking for the person would be greater.

“I see. Could you look up the owner of this ring? I found it on the road, and I’m worried the owner mightpanic.”

The staff hurriedly nodded, gazing at her with admiration. “Of course, but I’m afraid it’ll take some timebecause I’ll have to send the ring back to our headquarters to get it checked.”

“It’s fine. Time is not a problem.”

Angeline pursed her lips as hatred flashed past her eyes. Indeed, time was not a problem. Finding outwho the monster was from back then was the only thing that mattered.

Angeline had no assistants by her side when she exited the jewelry store. Hence, she left the buildingright away to avoid attracting attention.

After replaceing a deserted spot, she pulled out her phone and dialed a familiar number.

“Ms. Yandell, would you care for a meal with your artist? Are there any jobs these days? Becomingpopular isn’t important. Anything’s fine as long as I get to earn some money.”

Nancy teased, “Wow, you’re finally contacting me. I thought you were busy dating these days.”

“Tsk. Nonsense. Men aren’t as important as money.”

Nancy rolled her eyes and purposely raised her voice when she said, “Don’t be such a showoff. Yourman isn’t an ordinary person, anyway. Then again, if you want to earn an income with your capabilities,

there is a company that recently invited you to help with their live commerce.”

Hearing that, Angeline frowned. “A live stream?”

“Yes. The eleven-eleven sale is in three days. Since it’s a national online shopping day, so all the majorcompanies are looking for hosts to hold their live commerce. It’s a little degrading, but the job pays aneight-figure salary. It can even increase your work performance.”

In the internet age, live streams had become a form of entertainment for the elderly. On top of that, thelive streaming and entertainment industries were slowly integrating. Many major celebrities oftenappeared on official live-streaming platforms to help out with their live commerce.

However, the offer seemed a little too good to be true.

“But…” Nancy drawled, sounding hesitant. “The company that invited us to host the live commerce isHanson’s branch company. Considering your relationship with him, I don’t mind declining it if you don’twant to go.”

Angeline’s expression turned grim when she heard that, and she could not help but wonder whatHanson was up to.

Has he forgotten the lesson Evander taught him yesterday?

“It’s okay. You can just forget about it. I’ll call them to decline the offer.”

“No, it’s fine. I’ll take it,” said Angeline. Though she did not know what Hanson’s motive was, there wasno reason for her to reject a job worth eight figures. All she needed to do was talk.

I won’t necessarily bump into him during the job, anyway. Besides, I heard Joseline is still resting fromgiving birth. I can’t miss the opportunity of infuriating her if I meet him.

With that, Angeline asked Nancy to get her a driver to send her home.

Meanwhile, a heated argument had broken out among the Yiurk family over the eleven-eleven salecontract.

Joseline stood in the living room while gripping the contract Hanson had just taken out of his bag. Herentire body was shaking with rage as she questioned, “Hanson, don’t you know Forrester Group isestablished by the Yiurk and the Sorelle family? Besides, you know Angeline has been eyeing thecompany’s shares. Hasn’t it crossed your mind that this contract is basically giving her a chance toinfiltrate our company?”

With a calm expression, Hanson sat on the couch and took a sip of his coffee before asking plainly,“You were the one managing Forrester Group back then, right?”

“Yes. Is there something wrong?” Joseline felt panic rise in her heart at the sudden question.

Clang! Hanson suddenly slammed the coffee cup on the table. His expression turned as dark asthunder, and he chided, “I’ve asked Shay to check the sales performance report, and it seems thatForrester Group has been facing losses for the past few years. Even Yiurk Group has lost severalmillion, too. What have you been doing?”

Joseline shuddered at his words, and guilt flashed past her eyes.

Suddenly, an idea came to her. She feigned an innocent expression and went to Hanson’s back to givehim a shoulder massage while saying piteously, “Hanson, I’ve been busy for the past few years. That’swhy I didn’t have time to manage Forrester Group. You can’t hire Angeline just to vent your anger—”

“Looks like you’ve underestimated Angeline’s influence. She’s the most suitable candidate for thisevent. Have you been faking your friendship with her all this time?” Hanson grabbed her arm and

pulled her forward violently, casting her a mocking glance.

“I-I…”

His stares made Joseline panic. Thus, she knitted her brows and gazed at him in disbelief. “Hanson,we’re a married couple, and our son was born not long ago. How could you doubt me already?”

At the mention of their son, Hanson’s face contorted with rage. His gaze became even more piercing,as if he wanted to tear Joseline’s pretentious mask apart.

“From today onward, Forrester Group will be managed by Yiurk Group. If you’re not happy about it, youcan withdraw your shares!”

With that, Hanson shoved Joseline aside, stuffed the contract into his bag, and stormed off withoutbothering to see if she was fine.

At the same time, the sound of the baby crying came from upstairs. However, it only made Hanson replacethe situation more ironic. He clenched his fists and furrowed his brows in frustration.
