Chapter 224 She Would Never Let This Happen!
It wasn’t that the the Bartons didn’t want to tell Cierra.
However, ever since their aunt married into the Riley family in New York and returned to Los Angeles, their mother had some conflicts with her grandfather. As a result, they had less contact with the Chester family in the next few years. As such, he did not tell the elders of the Chester
family about it in detail.
As for the Chester family, they naturally knew Cierra, who had been lost since she was a child, had
returned.
A few months ago, when Cierra had returned to the country, the Barton family had donated one billion dollars, and they had sent gifts to him.
However, at that time, Cierra hadn’t officially returned home, and the Barton family hadn’t received any relatives from her grandfather’s side. So far, they hadn’t seen her yet.
“I’ll wait for you to stay in Los Angeles for a while. You’ll know all the relatives. Don’t worry.”
Jaquan explained to her. Worried that Cierra would think too much, he added.
“My two uncles are very concerned about you. Since you returned to the country, they have often asked about your recent situation. Only my second aunt may be a little dissatisfied with you because of the dispute with my mother. Don’t take it to heart when you meet. My grandparents are not very old, so they have been resting at home all these years. According to my mother’s arrangements, she will take us to visit them at that time. Cici, remember to have some time.”
The Barton family had originally planned to arrange a dinner party to welcome their relatives and friends from Los Angeles. At the same time, they would also lead their younger sister to show off in front of others.
However, there had been a lot of unhappiness on the internet some time ago. The Bartons were worried that someone would deliberately slander their sister’s reputation. Moreover, their sister did not like to be lively, so they simply canceled the plan.
However, the banquet could be canceled, and this kind of interaction between relatives could not be avoided.

Cierra was originally happy that she had gained a lot of relatives, but when she heard the rest, she wanted to cry but had no tears.
possible, she would rather lie down at home.
It was also a sweet burden.
“Got it, Jaquan. I’ll probably be busy for three or four days in a row tomorrow. You can take me anywhere you want for the rest of the time.”
Cierra took Will’s hand and got into the back seat of the car, thinking about the follow-up
arrangements.
She had to pick up Freddy tomorrow.
The day after tomorrow was William’s birthday. No matter whether William wanted to celebrate it or not, she had to prepare a surprise for him.
After that, it was the Gourmet Convention that Freddy had mentioned. Freddy was supposed to attend, but he used the principle of respect for the old and love the young to put pressure on her. He asked her to be a judge on behalf of the L’Opera Restaurant, so she had to go.
After that, there should be nothing else for her to do, and she could follow the arrangements.
As for the location of the studio, it could only be postponed. There was no rush.
At present, it was more important to eat delicious food first.
However, just as Jaquan was about to start the car, he was interrupted by a call.
It was a call from Mrs. Chester.
-She didn’t know what he said, but his face darkened slightly.
But when he turned his head and looked at the back seat, he had returned to normal, saying in a joking tone.
“Cierra, I’m afraid we can’t take you out for dinner today. Mrs. Chester has prepared dinner at the old house. We have to go back.”
“Okay, as long as there’s food.”
Although she really wanted to have a taste of the characteristics of Los Angeles, her mother was
more important.
Even if Mrs. Chester was not good at cooking, Cierra was still willing to go home for dinner. Moreover, Mrs. Chester’s cooking skills were not bad.
Jaquan started the car and gave Cierra a warning as he turned his head.
“Mom should have something to tell you when you get home later. Don’t get too excited.”
“What is it?”
Cierra was curious.
Jaquan glanced at her through the rear-view mirror with a meaningful look in his eyes.
She Would Never Let This Happen!
“You’ll know when you get back.”
Cierra frowned at him, but she didn’t ask further.
Although she was curious, she thought that she would know later, so she didn’t have such a strong
desire for it.
Moreover, her brother was still driving, so she didn’t want to distract him, so she held Will in her arms and enjoyed the scenery outside the car.
As they passed by the fountain downstairs, Cierra frowned.
She seemed to have seen a man in strange clothes walking toward the company, but it was a pity that the distance was short. When she wanted to see it clearly again, there was only green belt on both sides of the road in front of her, and she could no longer see the situation at the entrance of the
company.
It was not Cierra’s fault for being vigilant.
When she was abroad, she was followed by such a gangster-like person and almost lost her life. She
had to think more about it.
The MRC Group of the Barton family was located in the industrial park, surrounded by office buildings. People coming and going were all in professional attire. Their temperaments were similar, and the shabby clothes were really eye-catching.
Cierra wasn’t someone who discriminated against people like that. If it was anywhere else, she
wouldn’t even look at he, but it was really strange for he to appear here.
It seemed that he was here to make trouble.
She was right. This person was indeed here to cause trouble.
It was just that he was not here to cause trouble for the company, but someone in the company.
In the president’s office of the MRC Group.
Wanda was still thinking about what had happened in the pantry and was in a daze at her desk.
The messages in the gossip group continued to flood the screen.
(Sisters, this gossip seems to be real! I just happened to pass by the president’s pantry when I went to get some water. I heard something very sweet and almost died of sweetness!]
[What? Tell me!]
Although the Jaquan’s pantry was independent, it was only separated from the staff’s pantry, which formed a separate space. It was not like the conference room, which had a soundproofing effect.
Chap
Fruit.
That was to say, if they stayed outside for a while, the voices inside would be slightly louder, and they would almost be heard clearly.
[I heard the beautiful woman say ‘good brother’ to the president. Not to mention the president, even I, a woman, can’t bear it! That coquettishness almost fell on my heart and softened my heart!]
[Wow! I think the president’s legs are also weak. When did he get off work early? He must have taken the girl out today. He doesn’t even care about his work!]
[No wonder her assistant looked so dejected after coming out of the pantry. She looks so pitiful. If I were her, I would resign. How can I still have the face to stay with the president?]
When she heard her name, Wanda’s eyes trembled.
When she saw what these people were talking about, she put on a self-deprecating smile.
Where did she get the courage to stay with him?
Well…
Was it wrong to like someone you shouldn’t have to?
For so many years, she had never delayed business because of this love.
The only accident was the child.
Thinking of this, there was a sense of loneliness in her eyes, and she couldn’t help putting her palm
on her lower abdomen.
She couldn’t help but wonder what would have happened if she had kept the child by her side when
she had given birth.
However, this thought was quickly dispelled by her.
If she had given birth to the
working in the MRC Group.
“and raised it herself, she would not have been able to continue
There were many things to do with Jaquan. Even if he had more than one assistant by his side, if she
was too lazy and slack, the MRC Group would not need such a person.
What kind of life could she live as a single mother if she was fired by the MRC Group?
That asshole might even trick her out of the child and sell the child.
She would never allow that to happen!
Therefore, it was the best ending for her to send the child to the the Bartons.
She Would Never Let This Happen!
She was not in the mood to watch these people gossip. She turned off the computer with a cold look and was about to get off work with her bag.
Just as she was tidying up, her phone vibrated.
She lowered her eyes, and all the blood in her body seemed to have frozen. A chill spread from the soles of her feet to the skin of her brain, making her at a loss!
