Over the phone, Timothy Parks let out a long sigh. “We’re not even close to achieving that.” Nancy Zeller was displeased. “Didn’t you say last week that we’re almost even?” Timothy sighed again. “That’s right. Last week, we were going strong and about to catch-up. However, because Annalise Barton’s performance at the Traditional and Modern Medical Conference went viral, those brainless supporters placed orders on their Twitter accounts. “In just a few days, we were left in the dust again.” “Useless!” Nancy couldn’t help but sneer.
Timothy sighed. “It’s not that we are useless. It’s just that Annalise Barton has many tricks her sleeve. She has changed our up understanding of her again and again. It will end in two weeks. I’m afraid… I don’t have a chance anymore.” Nancy blew up the moment she heard Annalise’s name. She retorted, “There’s still two weeks. Instead of increasing sales, you’re boosting others’ morale. How useless. I’ll invest in another 400 stores for you.” “Really?” Timothy couldn’t contain his excitement. ‘Can we overtake them with 400?” Nancy asked.
“Of course! Even if we invest 200 more, we’ll be able to achieve that,” Timothy declared confidently. “Don’t be so sure. I want results. You can go to hell if you lose again.” “Don’t worry. If we add another 400 stores, I will definitely surpass Julian Parks in sales. However, there are only two weeks left. We have to invest in these 400 stores as soon as possible.”
“It will be arranged tomorrow morning,” Nancy said. Timothy was overjoyed. “Okay!” Nancy hung up the phone and frowned. She had planned for everything, but things weren’t going well. It was so vexing. After a while, their car arrived at the destination. Julian Parks and Annalise Barton returned to the Park’s residence. Concerned that Annalise would be tired, Julian asked the driver to turn up the temperature and let Annalise lie on his lap to take a short nap. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Annalise was not sleepy at all. She leaned against Julian’s leg and was still thinking about the Zeller family. “I think the mastermind behind this matter is most likely targeting me.” Julian agreed. He reached out and touched Annalise’s face. “Yes. So, you’ve made a good decision. If you don’t treat Old
Madam Zeller anymore, you can nip the problem in the bud.” Annalise sighed softly. “That’s right! If something is impossible to guard against, cut off the source directly. People are not afraid of confrontation but terrified of these disgusting things in the dark. However, everyone has a purpose in doing everything.”
“There should be a backup plan lest I am really the target. I won’t treat Old Madam Zeller anymore and wait for the other party to make a move. Then Lcán bide my time.” “Yes, exactly.” Julian smiled. As expected, his wife was intelligent! “It’s all thanks to Mina Simmons today. At that time, I was playing with my phone,” Annalise said. This also reminded her of something. The situation in Jadeborough was much more complicated than the environment she used to live in. She had to be careful at all times. “Mina Simmons did well,” Julian praised. He rarely gave girls such high praise. Annalise smiled. “That’s right. She’s innocent, lively, and cute. She’s also humble and eager to learn. I’ll teach her well in the future.”
Julian immediately said, “Let her learn more. from John. John often has surgeries in the hospital. It will be more intuitive for her learning.” Haha, okay.” Annalise laughed. She knew that Julian wanted her to spend more time with him. She was also willing to spend more time in a relationship. She was happy skiing with him. She was happy watching ginkgo with him. She was happy eating, climbing mountains, and doing anything together. It just so happened that John had taken in a disciple for her. It was not a bad idea for John to teach her himself. It was already 10 p.m. when they returned to the Park’s residence.
The butler said that Samuel was already asleep. Annalise asked the butler how Samuel was doing. The butler said Samuel felt better after taking his medicine on time every day. Annalise was relieved. She told the butler to go to bed. It was late, so they should rest too. She would check on Samuel and administer acupuncture tomorrow morning. “Alright,” the butler immediately replied. He had always liked Annalise because she was the person Julian liked. He liked her even more now that he saw her.
Because she was not only the person Julian liked but also Master Quigley’s best disciple. Furthermore, she was an outstanding traditional medicine practitioner. In the past, everyone thought that Young Master had been blinded because he chose an incompetent woman as his partner. However, what happened at the Traditional and Modern Medical Conference was a slap to their faces. The more he thought about it, the happier Gilderoy felt. Then he went to sleep, satisfied. Annalise and Julian returned to their room.
Julian instantly transformed into a predator and pounced on Annalise. “Wife, come. We should do some exercises to sleep well.” “Stop fooling around. I’m tired today.” “I was concerned that you would feel burdened seeing such a scene today, so let’s do exercises. It’ll divert your attention.” I don’t feel burdened.” “That’s perfect. When you’re relaxed, the exercise becomes more effective.” Annalise’s ears were a little red, but she could not help but laugh. She realized that he was extremely obsessed with this matter.
She couldn’t help but be curious. “You.. really only have me? You haven’t had another girl in the past? Don’t worry. I’m just curious. Even if something happened in the past, I won’t be angry or jealous.” Julian’s face fell. He leaned over and gently bit Annalise’s lips. “You deserve to be punished! I’ve told you before. I’ve never been in a relationship or liked a girl. You’re the first, the last, and the only one.” Annalise looked at Julian gently, contented. Her ears were red. Then she asked, “Then… How did you solve this problem in the past?”
Julian looked at Annalise in resignation and said, “Imagine a vegetarian who thought vegetables were tasty. Then one day, he ate meat. After he turned back to vegetables, he realized they were tasteless. After that, he would want to have meat for every meal.” “Pfft…” Annalise burst out in laughter when she heard this hypothetical story. The next moment, Julian’s kiss landed on her lips. Annalise was exhausted. Julian wanted to carry her to the bathroom but was rejected. “No, no, I’ll go myself.”
After taking a shower, Annalise felt her stamina was weaker than before, and she was especially sleepy. She also felt a little nauseous. Had she not taken in sufficient protein? She subconsciously
reached out to take her pulse. Although she could not be sure, there was something wrong with her pulse. She thought about it again. She had not had her period for some time. Time passed too quickly. At that time, she thought that it didn’t matter if she was a week late. But now, it was 20 days late. Was she pregnant? Then she took her pulse again, this time more carefully.
