The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning By Max Charming chapter 388
“Well, I’d love to see how you won’t go easy on me,” Kai teased Lana. Lana’s face reddened, and she nervously bit her lip. “Kai Stewart!”
“Do you want to try it again?” Lana had always been known for her gentle nature. Ever since she became a part of the Stewart family through marriage, she endured her parents-in- law’s scolding without complaint. But this time, her anger got the best of her. She swung her handbag at Kai and stomped on his foot with her high heel.
Kai hissed, his eyebrows knitting together. Lana’s face flushed with embarrassment. She quickly picked up her bag and left, not daring to look back, fearing that Kai might follow her.
Sitting in her car with the mirror open, Lana frowned as she examined the red marks on her neck. She reached for her concealer and foundation to hide those marks.
That night, Lana had been covered in marks of passion. Fearing exposure, she had to tell the other Stewart family members that she had gone out of town to visit a doctor and hadn’t returned for seven days straight.
She couldn’t even think about what might happen if they discovered she had slept with her brother-in-law. Lana told herself, ‘I need to end this.’ She planned to find the right moment to resolve this situation once and for all.
At Azure Corporation, Kevin knocked on the door of Zach’s office and walked in to deliver some documents. He didn’t see Zach but happened to spot a DNA report. Kevin wondered, ‘Whose DNA report is that?
“What are you looking at?” Zach’s cold voice emerged from the lounge as he wiped water stains off his hands with a tissue.
“Nothing!” Kevin immediately averted his gaze. “Mr. Jardin, these are the meeting documents for today. There are a few documents of some projects that require your signature.” Zach replied, “Alright, I got it.”
After Kevin left the office, Zach took the DNA report to the shredder and destroyed it. At that moment, he remembered what Madelyn had said, “He’s been honest with me. He’s never pressured me into anything! You can’t even compare to him!” He had never felt so frustrated before; his mind was in turmoil.
At eight o’clock in the evening, Zach received a phone call, preparing to leave the office. Kevin was waiting outside the door, keeping pace with Zach as they headed for the elevator. “Mr. Jardin, many eyes are on us right now. If you step in, you might risk being noticed. Allow me to take care of this. The company relies on your presence.”
Zach pressed the down elevator button. “Still don’t want to clock off?” “But…” Kevin pursed his lips. “That’s enough,” Zach interrupted him firmly. “My matters aren’t your concern. If you want to come along, feel free.”
In a private room at Supreme World, several employees from Azure Corporation’s Business Development Department were in tipsy state. Randall Burton grinned playfully as he reached for the intern’s thigh. “Can’t handle it already? I haven’t had my fun yet. We can discuss the contract signing later.”
“Mr. Burton, why trouble an intern?” Zach’s voice intervened. Azure Corporation’s employees promptly stood up upon seeing him and offered their seats. “Mr. Jardin.”
Zach nodded in acknowledgment, and someone swiftly brought over another set of silverware.
