Love Is a Sweet Addiction

Feeling that she was in a good mood, Terence glanced at her. “What made you so happy?”

Esther was stunned. She touched her face. Was she so obvious? She shook her head and said, “It’s nothing. It’s just that I can finally go home after everything is done. Thus I’m happy.”

“That’s true.” Terence nodded. He lowered his head and continued to flip through the car magazine in his hand. “Your goal has finally been achieved.”

The smile on Esther’s lips froze slightly. She looked at him and said angrily, “Terence, can you not be so eccentric? How many times have I told you? Everything I do has no purpose…”

She paused and suddenly changed her words. “Well, I admit that I have a purpose. My purpose is to help you gain a foothold in the Gibson Group and keep your position in the Gibson family. No one has no purpose. You are my husband, and I can only be good if you are good. Isn’t this a normal idea?”

“For me?” Terence disagreed.

“That’s right, for you and me.” Esther bit her lip. “It’s definitely not to prevent Anne from marrying into the Gibson family.”

If he had not heard the recording that Anne had sent him, Terence might have believed her, but at this time, no matter what she said, it was hard for him to believe.

Seeing that Terence didn’t speak, Esther knew what he was thinking. She couldn’t help but be a little angry. “Terence, can you wise up? If I don’t want Anne to marry into the Gibson family, I will send the video directly to the Gibson family. I can just tell James that Anne is pretending to be pregnant. Why should I follow you to Randall City and lose my painting?”

“You don’t have to be so excited.” Terence looked up at her indifferently. “I’ll see your performance in the future.”

She decided to think that he was jealous, so he did not let go of her past with James.

That was true. Her feelings towards James were not decided by her words. She could only prove herself with her actions in the future.

At the airport.

Linsay booked the same flight as Esther and arrived at the airport before Esther.

In order to make herself look more beautiful, she rushed into the bathroom before Esther arrived at the airport and made up her face in the mirror.

After finishing her makeup, she was just about to turn around and leave when she was suddenly startled by Anne who had followed her in. She quickly sorted out her emotions and smiled at her. “Miss Anne.”

“What a coincidence!”

“Well, what a coincidence! I’ll go out first. Esther will be there soon.” Linsay smiled at her. She could not let Esther see her with Anne.

However, just as she walked past Anne, Anne grabbed her arm and pulled her back, raising her hand to slap Linsay.

Her slap completely stunned Linsay. She stared at Anne in a daze. Before she could ask why, Anne was the first to speak. “Did you ask Esther to go to Dream Fate last night?”

Only then did Linsay understand why Anne slapped her. It was because of last night.

Last night, she did ask Esther to go to the Dream Fate, but Esther went to the wrong place and failed.

She thought that Anne was angry because she tried to match James and Esther, so she denied it. “I did ask Esther to go to Dream Fate, but I just wanted to ask her out to relax. I didn’t mean anything else. But she went to the wrong place. We…”

“It really was you?” Anne was furious.

If Linsay had not asked Esther out, Esther would not have gone to the Dream Fate, and she would not have been photographed.

If it wasn’t for her, James would have signed the contract, and James would have liked her even more because of this, instead of showing a disappointed expression at her after hearing that Terence and Mr. Russell had successfully signed the contract this morning.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Seeing her livid face, Linsay cautiously called out, “Miss Anne, what’s wrong? Are you alright?”

“Scram!” Anne roared at her furiously.

Linsay shook her head and quickly walked out.

Not long after Linsay walked out of the bathroom, she saw Esther and Terence coming from the entrance. After she rubbed her face that was hurt by Anne, she smiled and waved her hand at them.

Esther also saw her and asked with a smile, “Linsay, why are you here so early?”

“I just arrived.” After Linsay finished speaking with a smile, she looked up at Terence who was beside her and said, “Terence, how are you?”

Terence glanced at her and asked, “What happened to your face? Are you hit?”

Linsay was stunned. She didn’t expect Anne to be so strong and actually made a mark on her face.

After Terence said this, Esther also noticed it. She stretched out her hand to support her face and sized her up. “Yes, Linsay, what happened to your face? Why is there a palm print?”

Linsay shook her head and said with a smile, “What palm print? I’m just a little allergic. Thank you for your concern.”

“Oh, just allergy?”

“Yes, just like my friend, I’m just allergic.”

Terence smiled mockingly.

Esther did not notice his abnormality. She looked around and asked, “By the way, where is your friend?”

“Over there.” Linsay pointed her chin at the waiting room not far away and smiled as she held Esther’s arm. “Let’s go and sit over there.”

Miss Young, who had been standing not far away, stepped forward and glanced at the backs of the two people as they left. “Terence, don’t you feel that this Miss Linsay is a little strange? Aren’t you worried that she will lead your wife astray?”

Terence followed her gaze and glanced at the two of them. He calmly said, “Every woman has their little schemes. There’s nothing strange about that.”

Esther also had her own thoughts, not less than other women!

This was something that he had only discovered during their trip to Randall City.

Terence and Esther had returned with a complete victory this time. They had indeed gained reputation in the Gibson family because everyone knew that the Anetly family had a conflict with the Gibson family. It was not so easy to settle the Anetly family.

The fact that Terence signed the contract made Gill proud, at least in front of Amanda who had always been proud and arrogant.

Although Amanda was disappointed in her son, she was not worried when she thought of the illness of Terence. What was more, he had just entered the group, and his strength and connections were far inferior to her son.
