Chapter 232: Chapter 231: Someone is Here

“Ivy, do you know something?”

A bit of gloom appeared on Amanda Leaford’s beautiful face.

She had been sick for so many years, living like a walking corpse. For a man like Daniel Thompson to have an extramarital affair was no longer a rarity in their circle.

Especially since she had been arguing with Daniel more recently, she felt that he had changed. He used to have eyes only for his family, and money and power were secondary, but now Daniel put his interests first and foremost.

Thinking of the scene when Phoebe Belmont left Daniel’s office, the light in Amanda’s eyes gradually dimmed.

Molly Walker held Amanda’s cold hand in silence.

As a junior, it wasn’t her place to interfere in her parents’ matters, but she didn’t want to see Amanda hurt. After some thought, she carefully chose her words: “Daniel has been dressing more fashionably lately and has been in a good mood. I heard he’s even looking up travel guides.”

Various signs indicated that Daniel had someone on the side.

Amanda tightly held Molly’s hand in return and forced a smile: “Is it Phoebe Belmont?”

Phoebe Belmont?

Molly was shocked at the revelation.

Could it be that Daniel’s affair was with Phoebe Belmont?

Amanda tried to maintain her composure: “Last time I went to the company, I saw Phoebe Belmont hurriedly leaving his office.”

Even though Phoebe Belmont was a long-time subordinate of Daniel, at that moment, a woman’s intuition told Amanda that the relationship between the two was out of the ordinary.

Upon hearing this, Molly’s heart clenched tightly.

It was said that Phoebe’s relationship with Gillian Thompson was as close as sisters. Who would have thought that her ultimate goal was Daniel Thompson?

“Mom, Daniel has agreed to let us go to Capital City. I want to go see my grandparents.”

“Alright, I will call Aunt Quistis now, and we will go to Capital City tomorrow.” Upon hearing that Daniel would no longer prevent her from returning to her family home, a big smile finally bloomed on Amanda’s face.

Seeing her radiant smile, Molly felt a stirring in her heart.

As outsiders, it’s hard to interfere in a relationship. If Daniel indeed had an affair, the only one who could help Amanda to get through it would be herself.

As for Phoebe Belmont, if she dared to reach out to Amanda, Molly would make her pay a heavy price.

Molly lowered her eyelashes, concealing the cold light in her eyes.

Early the next morning, at the entrance to the Thompson family’s estate, Amanda was saying goodbye to the maids with her son and daughter.

Seeing the large and small packages of luggage, Daniel, who was about to head to the company for a meeting, stopped in his tracks and hesitated, “What are you bringing all this stuff for? Are you planning to live there for a month?”

Joshua Thompson smirked mischievously: “Mom said we’re going to stay for a year.”

A year?!

Daniel’s face turned pale, and he glanced at Amanda who was ignoring him, “Amanda, are you going for a year?”

A year  wouldn’t that be a separation?

Amanda pretended not to hear him and urged Joshua and Molly to load their belongings into the car: “You don’t need to bring too many winter clothes, as it’s always warm there. Take some snacks you like since you might not be used to the taste of Northland  ”

Daniel’s face alternated between green and white as he was thoroughly ignored.

Last night, Amanda went straight to the guest room after returning and didn’t even speak to him. In front of the children and servants, Amanda’s blatant disregard was humiliating.

Daniel suppressed his anger and boarded the car with a cold snort.

A year  he didn’t believe that Amanda could really stay in that environment with the children for a whole year.

As soon as he arrived at the company, Phoebe Belmont greeted him with documents: “The foreign clients are coming to talk to us about contracts today. Do you want to meet them, or should I?”

Today, Phoebe Belmont was wearing an off-shoulder traditional long dress. Upon removing her coat, a hint of white skin on her chest was exposed, and the ambiguous neckline was barely visible.

Seeing how respectful and worry-free Phoebe was, Daniel’s tense body suddenly relaxed: “Let’s go together.”

Upon meeting the so-called foreign client, the previously relaxed Daniel became tense again.

The visitor was dressed in simple casual attire, his long legs crossed while sitting on the sofa in a refined and elegant manner, resembling an ancient noble.

“Chase Jackson!” Daniel’s eyebrows furrowed, and the wrinkles on his forehead deepened as he asked, “Why are you back?”

“Sunnydale is lovely.” Chase’s face was gentle, his eyes filled with a warm smile, “There are people I care about here, so how could I not come?”

Such a double entendre!

Indeed, Chase did have relatives in Sunnydale, but as far as Daniel was concerned, they were not important relatives.

What he truly cared about was someone else.

“How long do you plan on staying in Sunnydale this time?” Daniel Thompson grinned meaningfully, “You’re not getting any younger; if you don’t start a family soon, I’m afraid you’ll never have any offspring.”

In his youth, Chase Jackson liked Amanda Leaford, but unfortunately, she had no feelings for him. After Amanda fell ill, he refused to let Chase see her, and eventually Chase left to work abroad.

Now that Amanda is doing well, he has returned!

Alert, crisis, overwhelmed Daniel’s heart.

“Staying in Sunnydale forever?” He asked gloomily.

Chase glanced at Phoebe Belmont next to him, exchanged polite smiles and said, “I am going to Capital City after our business talk. I will stay there for a year before settling in Sunnydale. Mr. Thompson, please remember to take care of me in the future.”

Chase patted Daniel on the shoulder, smiling gracefully and brilliantly.

Daniel snorted coldly, brushed off the hand on his shoulder and flashed a hint of viciousness in the depths of his eyes.

In the past, Chase liked playing both sides, but now he has refined himself into a cunning fox.

“Your wealth is even more considerable than mine. Where would you need me to help you?” Thinking about his own upcoming trip to Capital City, Daniel was filled with chagrin. He knew that Amanda was also going to be there for a year.

The thought of Chase and Amanda being alone together in a city made him furious.

Daniel impatiently signed the contract and, seeing that he was not eager to communicate further, Chase left in a carefree manner.

Seeing Daniel’s dark and gloomy expression, Phoebe handed him a cup of hot tea.

Daniel took the scalding hot tea, and the warmth from the cup spread to his heart. He took a gentle sip of the tea.

“This tea is well brewed,” he praised sincerely.

Phoebe was overjoyed, quietly observing his facial expression, and asked softly, “There’s a senior executive lunch gathering at noon    Gabriel’s flight is in the evening, and he’s made reservations for lunch with me. If you don’t want to join them, you can have lunch with us.”

Daniel was silent.

Phoebe’s fingers trembled nervously because she was worried Daniel might not want to join them for the meal, remembering how Gillian Thompson had embarrassed him a while ago.

Phoebe was also quite dissatisfied with Gillian’s actions but, since they were bound together, she had no choice but to help her when asked.

After pondering for a few seconds, Daniel saw her nervous look and smiled, “Let’s eat together.”

Phoebe nodded, her sweet smile spreading across her face.

In the afternoon, at the Thompson family’s villa’s restaurant.

Joshua Thompson handed a whole plate of spicy chicken to Molly Walker, “Hurry up and eat more, you like spicy food, and you won’t be able to taste Chef Kate’s cooking in Capital City.”

Kate was the Thompson family’s chef, a top-tier female chef recruited from a Michelin restaurant.

“We’re really not waiting for the old man?” Nicholas Thompson, looking at the way Joshua was feasting heartily, reminded him in a timely manner.

The way they were leaving tonight, Daniel would definitely want to have this meal with them.

Amanda’s hand, holding chopsticks, paused momentarily.

The housekeeper said that he tried to call Daniel but couldn’t reach him.

“You all eat first. There’s no need to wait for him.” Not sure of her feelings, but everything she put in her mouth tasted bland.

Joshua lightly tugged the corner of his mouth, “No need to wait. He might be enjoying himself somewhere else, having long forgotten about us.”

Nicholas clasped his fist and coughed uncomfortably.

The atmosphere turned awkward for a moment.

Molly silently pursed her lips, picked up the spicy chicken in front of her, and put it in her mouth. It was numbing and spicy.

At that moment, her cell phone vibrated. Molly glanced at the message and opened her lips slightly.

The message was from No. 6: ‘Daniel Thompson and Phoebe Belmont have gone to the ‘Home Cooking Restaurant.’

‘Home Cooking Restaurant’ was a private room-style restaurant favored by many businesspeople. The dishes were delicious, the service was excellent, and, most importantly, it was very discreet.

Daniel wasn’t dining with his family but with these people?

Mom and her brothers were leaving tonight, and once they left, it might be a year before they return. And this was Daniel’s attitude?

Anger bubbled up in her heart.

Did Daniel want to elope with Phoebe?

Didn’t Daniel call her an unfilial daughter?

Then today, she would be an unfilial daughter.

Molly gracefully stood up, “I’m stepping out for a moment.”
