Celeste said helplessly, “I’ve been away for more than ten days. Although my In–laws didn’t say
anything, I could tell that they were unhappy. Even though I gave them gifts, they didn’t look too pleased. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
You’re so lucky. You don’t nave to worry about your relationship with your in–laws.”
Indeed, Mikayla had never worried about that.
Jerome’s parents were both abroad. Apart from the video calls, she had never seen them in
person yet..
She had heard that the relationship between his parents, Zachary Miller and Camille Burke, wasn’t
good.
When Jerome was only ten years old, Camille had decisively moved abroad with her newborn daughter.
Although she didn’t divorce Zachary, the two had been living separately.
It wasn’t until a few years ago that Zachary fell seriously ill, and he had to hand over the management of Miller Group to Jerome before also moving abroad.
Jerome didn’t have much affection for his parents, so he rarely contacted them. Mikayla had only met his parents a few times through video calls when she had visited Wanda.
In her previous life, Zachary and Camille didn’t even return to the country when she was admitted to a mental hospital. So, she never had to deal with them.
“It’s okay. Just do what you have to do first.”
After comforting Celeste, Mikayla couldn’t help but add, “You’ve done a good job. Even if they don’t acknowledge you, there’s no need for you to be too hard on yourself.”
“I just don’t want Nolan to be distracted by these things.” Celeste continued optimistically, “I’m sure that they’ll accept me as their daughter–in–law one day. After all, I’m excellent!”
Although Mikayla knew that Celeste was being too optimistic, she didn’t want to discourage her. Instead, she said, “Anyway, you should love yourself more. If you can’t handle it, just leave it to Dr. Chance. He might be busy, but he can’t just ignore everything.”
“I know. Don’t worry.”
After hanging up the phone, Mikayla sighed softly.
Celeste was so much like her past self. It would take some time to convince her.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Due to the livestream, Ansoft’s alcohol poisoning incident became well known. The other party still claimed that Ansoft’s liquor had a problem, but they refused to offer a specific hospital report.
Public opinion naturally fored Ansoft.
Mocato Investments and Ansoft had also completed their discussions about the contract details. The first payment would arrive in Ansoft’s account soon.
As long as Ansoft continued to develop with no significant breach of contract occurring, subsequent funds would arrive as promised. The listing was just around the corner.
Betty was happy, so she invited everyone in the company, including Mikayla, to a celebratory meal.
Kylie was finally discharged from the hospital. She looked gloomy when she saw the news about Ansoft’s contract with Mocato Investments.
Mikayla had managed to revitalize Ansoft, and she had even gotten Taylor to invest in them so
smoothly.
Kylie couldn’t believe that Mikayla had managed to accomplish all that without Jerome’s help.
With Jerome’s methods, it would be effortless to bring down Ansoft. It was even less likely that he couldn’t defeat Taylor and had allowed him to sign the contract smoothly.
There was only one possibility–Jerome knew that Mikayla had invested in Ansoft, so he had a tolerant attitude toward Ansoft this time.
Kylie couldn’t understand. Why didn’t Jerome blame Mikayla even though he knew that she was just using her identity as his wife to gain popularity? Why did he still allow her to act like this?
The same went for Mikayla. There were so many rumors circulating online about Jerome not loving her and that she would be abandoned. But why didn’t she give even the slightest reaction?
Things were spiraling out of control. Kylie had thought that she could trick Mikayla into making a scene to make Jerome detest her, but it had backfired.
Instead, Mikayla had taken advantage of him.
Kylie was about to get into the car when a balding man approached her.
