The Billionaire’s Treasure Wife

At this time, who would call?

Lindsey was puzzled for a moment, got up and picked up the phone and looked at it, saw that it was not a number he knew, and there was no note, so he answered the phone in wonder.

The person on the other end did not speak, but the sound of rough breathing through the microphone, “huff, huff” echoed in the ear. The sound, as if some kind of beast was wounded, is very seeping.

“Hello, hello, who is this.” Lindsey intuited that it was Kayden, listened for a moment and repeated the question: “Please speak.”

This end, Kayden stared at the dark computer screen, hanging hands, unconsciously clenched into fists, a long time before the voice: “Lindsey …”

Lindsey was so shocked that her whole body froze and she held her breath. “Are you okay?”

“Fine, just missed you, especially.” Kayden gave a bitter laugh, and her low, slightly husky voice, though soft, carried a dangerous undertone. “I want to see you.”

“But I don’t want to see you at all.” Lindsey gently tapped his chest to even out his breathing. “You take care of yourself, and you should probably leave me alone in the future.”

“You think I’m bothering you?” Kayden was clearly a little agitated. “I like you, it’s not an intrusion, I just want to keep you by my side.”

Here we go again … Lindsey suddenly felt a little annoyed. She really couldn’t figure out how Kayden could be so paranoid.

She had never liked him, or even had any friendship with him, and his obsession was even more of a great burden to her.

After a long pause, Lindsey coughed lightly and spoke again: “But I’m sorry, I can’t respond to your feelings, and I don’t need your company. You have your life, and I have mine.”

“Crowning.” Kayden sneered, but the next moment he choked out a sob, unable to speak clearly.

Lindsey didn’t know what had happened to him, nor did she know what his reason for calling today was, but she felt more and more irritated.

After waiting patiently for about a minute, the choking sound in his ears gradually stopped, and Kayden’s voice returned to its usual grim tone. “Forget it, you wouldn’t understand me if I told you anyway, so I decided to go back and see you.”

“Hey …” Lindsey exclaimed, the words that she wanted to say just came to her lips, but there was a disconnected “beep” in her ear.

“Who’s calling? Look at your face.” Bruce hugged her with a heartfelt hug, his voice faintly trembling. “Is it Kayden?”

Lindsey nodded feebly and sat down exhausted on the couch after putting away the phone.

When he left without a word, Lindsey thought he would come back, but never thought it would turn out to be true.

“Don’t worry, I’ll contact Rodolfo right away,” Bruce patted her on the shoulder and picked up his cell phone to call Rodolfo.

During the time that Kayden was recovering from his sobriety, Rodolfo had hired a psychiatrist to counsel him, and he himself had talked to Kayden a lot, so he should have been fine, how could he have had another attack.

When the phone call came through, Bruce told him about Lindsey’s phone call to Kayden and asked him to think of a way to arrange for Kayden to receive psychotherapy as soon as possible.

At this end, Rodolfo looked at Kayden, who had just fallen asleep, with a headache, and said comfortingly, “I’ve been working on it, and people are in Newport, so don’t worry.”

“How can I rest assured, he calls like this every now and then, normal people can’t stand to be so scared.” Bruce was visibly upset. “I need an exact diagnosis or I’ll send someone to take him away and I’ll find a doctor to treat him myself.”

“You can’t do that!” Rodolfo also came to temper. “I promise Old Mr. Grant that this will be done, and there is no need for you to strawman it.”

“Very well, you remember what you said today.” Bruce’s face was taut, his obsidian eyes glowing with an icy, stern light. “If Kayden hurts Lindsey again, I will never let go.”

Rodolfo cold sweat, can only nod.

Bruce hung up the phone and gently took Lindsey’s shoulders, coaxing, “Don’t be afraid, the old Lindsey was not afraid of the sky and the earth.”

“The Lindsey of old didn’t have Dabao and Xiaobao.” Lindsey leaned into his arms and sighed long and hard. “They were my weakness.”

Are they not their own weaknesses? Bruce pursed his lips, and his expression became more and more grave.

Kaley here is ready to move again, and Kayden there is provocative on the phone. It seems like a plan anyway.

Surely it doesn’t mean that … Bruce’s eyelids jumped and he picked up his phone again to call Cary.

The call was answered, and he did not care if the other side was busy, opened his mouth and said, “Find two people to go to Newport, keep a good eye on Kayden, this crazy person is still sick.”

“I see. Do you have anything else to tell me.” Cary’s voice was calm and subdued. “Just in time to do it all in one piece.”

“There is, hurry up and get rid of all the people that the third aunt has planted in the company.” Bruce gritted his teeth. “Don’t leave any of them behind.”

So hard? Are you stimulated again? Cary didn’t dare ask. He answered and hung up.

Bruce was very uncomfortable, but he had always hidden it well, especially not in front of Lindsey.

Lindsey did not ask him what he was doing, leaned on him to rest for a while, and went to stay with Dabao and Xiaobao.

Old Mr. Grant and Old Mr. Gregor came back from a stroll outside, and it was time to take a nap, so they laughed and joked with Old Mr. Gregor and went upstairs to rest.

Lindsey and Bruce walked Old Mr. Gregor out, and when they got to the car Old Mr. Gregor suddenly asked Bruce if there were any vacant houses in the neighborhood.

“I’ll ask around for you later.” Bruce was still surprised to see that Old Mr. Gregor was interested in moving here. “Grandpa Gregor also wants to come here to retire?”

“Yes, the air is good here, the environment is good, plus your grandfather is here, so of course I want to come too.” Old Mr. Gregor smiled broadly, raised his hand to pat his shoulder, and bent down to get into the car.

The couple watched Old Mr. Gregor’s car go away and could not help but look at each other, silently shaking their heads.

Old Mr. Grant is still selling Amway quite well for his age, and Old Mr. Gregor has only been here for half a day, so he’s trying to get him to buy a house here for his retirement.

The two of them did not go back to the city in the afternoon, and when Old Mr. Grant woke up from his nap, they took Big Boy and Little Boy with them and went for a walk.

As the sun was setting, the temperature was significantly cooler than at noon, and the air was fragrant with the scent of flowers, if any, which was elegant and intoxicating.

After walking along the path outside the villa, Old Mr. Grant picked a gazebo to sit in and spoke lightly: “How has the Burton boy been doing these past two days?”

“The same as always, not working, just bossing people around.” Bruce’s eyes flickered and he calmly told the truth: “A lot of the business department are old people, and he doesn’t like them, so he’s always looking for a fight.”

Old Mr. Grant was furious, and his tone became unpleasant. “Give him another month, or he’s out of here!”

Bruce nodded slightly, indicating that he had listened, but did not say much.

Burton’s intelligence, how he bounces around does not matter, anyway, he can not touch the core things, and can not enter the company’s core team.

The only thing he’s not sure about is Kaley.

Those who are planted in the company, he is not unaware of, but on the basis of the fact that they are seniors, no action.

But there is a limit to people’s patience, once or twice can be tolerated, ten times eight times down, who can still tolerate.

On the day she decided to dismiss the two seniors, Lindsey accompanied Bruce and went to the company together.

Burton was assigned to the business department and supposedly would not run into each other, however, when Lindsey and Bruce got out of the car, it just so happened that his car also pulled up to the curb.

“Cousin, sister-in-law.” Burton hooked his lips in a gangly greeting, fished out a cigarette and lit it daintily. “Good morning, it’s a nice day.”

Bruce gave him a sideways glance and didn’t say anything.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Lindsey glanced at him with a smirk, and his glistening red lips pulled out a wicked curve. “You look in a good mood, too, but I don’t like it, so you can’t go in today.”

“Cough …” Burton coughed, choking on the smoke in his mouth, his expression instantly becoming contorted. “What do you mean?!”

“Literally.” Lindsey smiled pleasantly. “The sight of you makes me sick, and I had to tell you to get lost so I wouldn’t throw up my breakfast.”

Burton was shaking with anger. “Don’t you go too far!”

“That’s how much I go overboard!” Lindsey grunted, bending Bruce’s arm and lifting her chin high in triumph as she entered the lobby.

Burton, despite his card, was picked up by security before he reached the door and thrown hard to the curb.

“Bitch!” Burton rubbed his sore bottom and narrowed his eyes at the back of Lindsey’s head, hating her. “Don’t fall into my hands, or I’ll make your life miserable.”

Lindsey had already entered the elevator by now, although she did not hear what he had cursed, her heart more or less guessed some of it.

Anyway, it’s common to be scolded, she has long been used to it.

“Why are you fighting with him?” Bruce saw her face change, couldn’t help but reach out his hand and dotingly scratched her nose. “A loser like that is not worth your anger.”

“I’m not mad, I just don’t like him.” Lindsey stepped forward and leaned her head crookedly against his chest, her voice low with laughter. “I guess he’ll call and tell Sanguine right away.”

Bruce pursed his lips and nodded gently.

When he arrived at the top floor office, Lindsey opened her laptop as soon as she entered, then put on her headphones and sat leisurely on the bar to listen to the recording.

Burton did call Kaley, but all without saying anything about the humiliation, but asking her when Kayden would be back.

Kaley seems to be on the road, the signal is not too strong, Lindsey listened for a while before hearing a sentence: I’m on the road, to Newport.

Hearing the word Newport, Lindsey’s face became extremely ugly.

She guessed correctly, Kayden called that day for no apparent reason, really instigated by her.

After pursing her lips and listening to the conversation between mother and son, Lindsey took off her headphones and walked across to Bruce without saying a word, curling her five fingers and tapping on the table. “Do you have a moment?”
