Chapter 81 The small balcony on the first floor near the stairs was probably less noisy than the crowded living room, so the man choose to take his call there. “Mr. Lindberg, that thing you asked me to look into, about you being drugged at the Silver Star Hotel, it’s not as straightforward as it seems. George Lindberg’s assistant Melvin is clean, but we found some clues in the surveillance footage. In the footage, Ms. Flanagan didn’t seem to be visiting friends. Ms. Flanagan claimed a friend was having a birthday, but I couldn’t find anyone celebrating a birthday at the Silver Star Hotel that day…” Lucian hung up, left the balcony, glanced up at the stairs and said, ‘Come out, I didn’t know that the Flanagan family’s maids were such eavesdroppers Allison descended the stairs with her cleaning supplies, head down and hunched over, “I apologize, Mr. Lindberg I didn’t mean to eavesdrop. I just happened to hear you as I was passing by I wasn’t close enough to hear what you were saying ” “Talking back, huh?” Allison: “If Mr. Lindberg doesn’t need anything. I’ll get to cleaning the balcony” As she walked by him towards the balcony, she heard the door lock behind her. The next moment, she felt his arm around her waist.
Allison was pinned against the wall by Lucian His familiar, domineering scent filled her nostrils. Allison’s eyes widen, “Are you crazy? This is the Flanagan family’s house!” Outside, there’s the living room- In the living room. Penelope was blushing and smiling. Ever since she got pregnant, the Lindbergs had been treating her differently. Even the normally stern Cors seemed more caring. Penelope sat next to Cora. Her pregnant didn’t show yet, but she kept touching it, exaggerating her movements. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Cora beamed, “This child is such good news for the Lindberg family. Carter’s 85th birthday is coming up, this is the best gift.” Penelope: “I’ll make sure to prepare a good gift.” She had been pretending to be Allison, speaking softly to avoid detection. Cora thought she’s very polite and her impression of her had improved. Carter was in great spirits today, playing chess with Christopher. Christopher was sweating bullets. Carter’s high status in the business world put a lot of pressure on Christopher For the Flanagan family to be connected to the Lindbergs was a great honor. After losing two games of chess, Christopher stood up and smiled, “Carter, you win.” With Carter in such good spirits, Christopher relaxed. He exchanged a knowing smile with Lean. They both had a hunch that their connection with the Lindberg family was all but confirmed. Lucian and Penelope’s engagement was settled, and now that Penelope was pregnant, the child would be the Lindberg family’s first great-grandchild. The wedding preparations were underway. Carter looked around, “Where’s Lucian?” Cora looked around but didn’t see him, “He was just here, where did he go?” A passing maid answered, “I saw Mr. Lindberg on the phone earlier. He might be on the balcony.” Cora stood up and said with a smile, I’ll go find him.”
