Love Enveloped In Lies
Episode 181

“Scott, Uncle Jared, I’m going to cook.”

The atmosphere between them was so awkward. If he didn’t disappear now, it could get really hot.

But his words didn’t work at all. Seeing that she was about to leave, Scott grabbed her wrist and hugged her in front of Jared.

Michelle wanted to push him away since Jared was still there.

“Ha ha, when are you going to give birth to a grandson for me Scott?” After all, Jared was a middle-aged man and used to dealing with youngsters.

“There are so many people in the house. We don’t need anything. You should rest today. It’s rare that my father sees you. ” Scott whispered in her ear.

“Good.”

Knowing she’d get in trouble if she continued to treat Scott like this, Michelle nodded in agreement.

Throughout the morning, Michelle looked bored as she answered questions.

But that was the only way he could think. After all, Jared was an old man. She didn’t want to treat him like he was making fun of his mother.

The more she heard Jared call her “daughter-in-law,” the more embarrassed she became.

“Uncle, please call me Michelle.” Michelle lowered her head and reminded him carefully.

“I like. Dad, that’s it. I’m okay with that. ” Scott looked at her with a little threat, which scared Michelle into shutting her mouth and remaining silent.

Jared was very pleased with his daughter-in-law, whose name was Michelle. Thinking about his cold attitude towards her before, now he actually felt a little regret.

“Michelle, let go of the past. It was all my fault. Please excuse me,”

Jared’s sudden words surprised everyone present.

“Uncle, I never blamed you.” Michelle tried to comfort Jared because she knew he must be upset by what he had said.

Lunch was ready very soon. The three of them sat around the table and happily enjoyed their food.

“Michelle, is your mother in the hometown?” It seemed sudden when Jared asked Michelle.

“Yes, it’s been a long time.” Michelle took her time enjoying her food, as she was afraid she would be rushed to answer Jared’s question.

“Dad, let’s go eat.” Scott knew Michelle was hungry, so he tried to calm the situation down.

Jared said nothing, but politely ate the food on the table.

But he couldn’t stand the solitude and had to say something.

“Scott, you didn’t do anything wrong to Michelle, did you?”

“Ah …” Michelle choked on not taking a sip of soup. Scott was so anxious that he looked at her hurriedly lest there be something caught in her throat.

His handsome face was full of concern, which touched Jared. It seemed his daughter-in-law had truly captured his son’s heart.

“Are you any good? Why are you in such a hurry? No one’s going to take your food. Though Scott was reproachful, it was easy to tell he cared about her tone.

“I…” Before Michelle could finish her sentence, she felt a sharp pain in her throat as if something was getting stuck there.

It was so embarrassing!

“What? Why are you still here? Come here and have a look! Get someone with medical knowledge to come here.

All the servants were trained and selected from thousands of people before entering the Jiang family villa. So it’s not surprising that some people know more.

Michelle was itchy and wanted to cough, but she was embarrassed to cough in front of Jared. She was holding him back. Now she was blushing.

Scott was surprised to see her like this and urged the servants to hurry.

Jared was worried too, but didn’t know, so he could only be anxious.

“Quick, pat him on the back!”

Finally, Jared thought about it. Although he didn’t know if it would work or not, he remembered Soapy’s mother doing that. When xenia was a child, she often ate carelessly and stuck her throat for no reason.

On hearing the nurse’s words, Joyce gently stroked Jasmine’s back. But it was in vain.

Someone had told him to hit him harder, but he couldn’t help himself.

“It is useless. Use all your strength. ” He was so anxious he nearly burst into tears.

Xenia didn’t want to see her so sad, so she had to put more strength into her hand.

Soon, what had been choked in her throat spat out. When everyone saw it, it was a winter melon!

Everyone present was stunned. He was lucky to survive having something that big stuck in his throat. Scott was so scared that he held Michelle and took the hot water provided by the maids to feed her in person.

“Baby, relax.”

Michelle wanted to have her own drink, but Scott refused.

She had no choice but to show her love in front of Jared.

Her face was crimson with shame. She wanted to slap Scott across the chest. But she couldn’t do that because Jared was there. But did the scene follow what Jared had asked her to do?

Maybe Jared didn’t think so.

“Sorry dude. I didn’t mean it that way. ” Michelle smiled apologetically at Jared and sat back in the chair.

“Nothing.” Jared smiled and continued eating.

He was so worried right now, and now he could eat with relief. With the previous lesson, Jared didn’t dare speak again while eating.

At the time, Michelle was so embarrassed that she really wanted to find somewhere to sneak in.

But now she had no appetite.

He wanted to be polite in front of Jared, but he couldn’t afford to make a fool of himself.

After dinner, Jared left without saying anything else.

Scott and Michelle were going to see Jared together. They stood outside the door and didn’t return home until they saw Jared’s car disappear at the end.

Sitting in the car, Jared smiled and asked the driver, “Do you think they’re perfect?”

Clearly, the driver hadn’t expected Jared to ask that question. He nodded and said, “Yes sir. Scott and Mrs. Michelle are the perfect couple. “

News of this family spread quickly, as if everyone had a walkie-talkie, so they could hear the news for the first time. No one was too stupid to find out about Scott and Michelle’s relationship.

Back in the room, Scott stretched out his thick arms to hold Michelle. When Michelle was about to say something, her mouth was covered by two thin lips and directly blocked what she wanted to say.

“Michelle, you scared me today. Thank goodness you’re not hurt. Otherwise, I’d follow you wherever you went. “Scott released her suddenly and looked at her with emotion.

“What are you talking about? From now on, don’t talk nonsense like that. ” Michelle hastily covered her mouth and looked at him.

A slight smile appeared on Scott’s lips. He grabbed her hand and kissed it. “Okay what you say.”

The golden sun fell on the Jiang Group figures, glowing with golden light. A well-trained security staff was waiting early on the road. As soon as Scott’s car pulled up there, the security staff immediately stepped forward and opened the door for him.

“Good morning, President.”

“OK thanks.” Scott gave the security guard the car key and asked him to go to the group car park. Originally he didn’t like others touching his car, but after that incident he’d already felt resistant to parking.

He had a bad feeling about being charged.

Scott entered the business with his slender legs. He was dressed in a black suit and white shirt, which exposed his figure to everyone. He was like a king in everyone’s eyes.

“Hello sir. Scott! As soon as he walked in, the staff seated at reception immediately stood up and their eyes instantly blurred and fervent. She bent politely to greet him.

Scott turned a deaf ear to them and headed for his private lift.

He looked so handsome that everyone in the company was shocked.

“Sir. Scott, these are the financial statements you want. “

When Scott had just entered the office, the assistant approached him.

Without looking at him, Scott said, “Put it here. I’ll give it to you after I’ve signed it. “

“Good.” In fact, people who earned their salaries could deal with it on their own. But things had changed a lot recently. Scott liked to do everything on his own.

Sometimes even his secretary’s job was given to him.

Such an investment was really incredible.

In fact, it was a busy day for him. As a man, it wasn’t a big problem to carry the burden of a family.

Scott had enough wealth for every woman to live a comfortable life. But no one would think the money was too much, just as Michelle was saying at the time.

Her words suddenly startled him.

For a man, everything he had done for the woman he loved was worth it.

After the coffee, Scott still felt tired, probably because he hadn’t slept well last night. He closed the file in his hand, got up and went to lie down on the sofa.

As soon as she closed her eyes, the image of Michelle came to mind. He couldn’t help smiling and then opened his eyes.

Because of the tight schedule, he couldn’t rest for long, so he only had a short nap.

He returned to his desk and straightened up. Then he dragged the files across the desk in front of him. He raised his eyebrows and began to process them one by one.

Today he didn’t call her because he didn’t have time.

He just wanted to finish his work as soon as possible, so he could get home early and then k**s her good night.
