My heart was not only in a mess, but also became very painful. She didn’t want to think anymore, so she played a lullaby and forced herself to sleep.
The next day, Jennifer went to work as usual, while Catalina was still on sick leave.
There was a rumor going around the office that Brayan stayed up all night at the hospital taking care of Catalina.
Jennifer didn’t care either.
During lunch break, Jamie suddenly came over to her and invited her to have lunch together.
Jennifer saw Jamie’s serious expression and knew she wanted to talk about something that wasn’t appropriate to discuss in the office.
So she found a restaurant that was a bit far from the company, with prices a bit higher, which ordinary office workers couldn’t afford.
“Sorry, Ms. Griffin.”
Jamie apologized to Jennifer with all seriousness.
That night he was completely wasted by Grady, didn’t even know how he got home.
I woke up and it was already the next morning.
He still doesn’t know what happened after that dinner party that night.
Especially between Jennifer and Grady

Jamie blaming himself so much caught Jennifer off guard.
She waved her hand. “It’s not your fault either…”
“No, it’s my fault. I didn’t fulfill the responsibilities Mr. LeBlanc gave me.”
“What were the responsibilities Mr. LeBlanc gave you?”

Jennifer thought it was funny.
That night, Brayan was so worried about Catalina, who had been in a car accident, that he didn’t even care about drunk driving.
She knew that Jamie was Brayan’s most trusted assistant, so she didn’t want to badmouth Brayan in front of Jamie.
Since Jamie apologized, she accepted it.
After the meal. Jamie said “sorry” and “I apologize” at least ten times. Jennifer could tell that Jamie was indeed a very responsible person.
But she also noticed that Jamie was subtly trying to find out what happened to her that night, if anything happened with Grady.
Jennifer didn’t budge.
Even facing Jamie, there’s no need to bring up the past.
This meal was Jennifer’s treat in the end.
She knew Brayan didn’t pay Jamie low wages.
But this restaurant was her choice, and the meal cost a lot, she didn’t want Jamie to spend so much.
“Just consider you owe me a meal! Next time you can treat me when you have the chance.”

Jamie couldn’t resist Jennifer.
Although he always called Jennifer “Ms. Griffin,” it doesn’t mean he didn’t acknowledge Jennifer as Mrs. LeBlanc.
Watching Jennifer swipe her card to pay, Jamie had a question in her
mind:
Where did Jennifer get the money from?
She divorced Brayan and he stopped giving her money.
Even though she works at the LeBlanc Group now, her salary is just like that of an average designer.
It didn’t seem like Jennifer was trying to show off when she paid tens of thousands for a meal with her credit card.
Brayan also had some doubts about Jennifer’s assets.
Jennifer could afford a three million dollar dress, a few billion dollar violin collection, and even spent fifty million on a photograph.
In the past, he thought Jennifer’s money was from Jasper.
Now Jasper is locked up and cut off all contact with Jennifer.
How did he give money to Jennifer?
So, if it wasn’t Jasper, where did Jennifer’s money come from?
After staying with Catalina at the hospital, Brayan had someone check Jennifer’s bank account on his way back to the office.
But Jennifer’s personal account had the highest level of protection applied, so even he couldn’t inquire about it.
After three years of marriage, this is the first time Brayan has become
curious about JenniferP
But soon he figured out the answer to his own curiosity.
Sitting in the office. Brayan looked at the sales report for this quarter.
The LeBlanc Group’s new brand got overshadowed by VelvetRose again.
“Peter…”
He took a sip of coffee.
The coffee tasted a bit weaker than usual.
In the hospital. Catalina checked out and her face looked even worse than when she was admitted.
She threw a big tantrum in the ward after Brayan left.
Originally, her plan was foolproof.
Daugherty Properties collaborated with the LeBlanc Group on al project. She contacted Grady through Jaxon and asked him to bring Jennifer to dinner on the pretext of discussing business. She drugged Jennifer in the apple cinnamon stew, and when Jennifer ate it, she pretended to have a car accident. She was sure that Brayan, worried. about her. would come to the hospital.
In this way, Grady was able to drug Jennifer.
And she had Jaxon arrange a photographer in advance to secretly take photos of Jennifer and Grady in bed.
When the bed photos were exposed, Jennifer had no face to continue being Brayan’s wife, and the LeBlanc family would never accept a tainted woman like Jennifer.
