Chapter 26: Catching Adulterers

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

When Lauren saw Joss walking past her with a big smile on his face, she had a hunch.

But it turned out to be true. She had been with Joss for ten years, but he had never treated her so gently, let alone seeing him getting married and resting.

Sure enough, people who love you will try their hardest to be gentle with you and make you promises.

People who do not love you, nothing you do will attract his attention.

“My mission this time was given directly by Joss. No one in our organization knows about it except for you. After the news of my death spread, I know that you are loyal to me. Tom, help me find out if this matter is related to Joss. Also, my name is Lauren now. But the day before I was brought back, someone hired someone to kidnap me and wanted me to die.”

“Investigate again. Find out what happened to Shilla 19 years ago. Find out who the man who hurt Shilla was.” With someone by her side, everything was easy to handle.

Tom had never come into contact with these people and did not understand, so Lauren explained it in detail again.

Later on, he used his system and hacked photos of Shilla and the two kidnappers.

In the meantime, in the president’s office of the Xiao group.

Yu Chen walked to Xiao Ye and reported, “President, Madam went to the Sunshine Hotel to meet a foreigner. It has been more than half an hour since Madam was there. The second Young Master followed Madam and got the room card from the front desk. However, he was carried out in less than five minutes after he went in.”

Yu Chen reported truthfully and waited for Xiao Ye’s next instructions.

Xiao Ye’s eyes darkened.

This 19-year-old wife of his seemed to have a lot of things that he did not know!

“Send me to the Sunshine Hotel.” Xiao Ye’s tone was cold.

Yu Chen did as he was told.

Xiao Ye also took the room card from the front desk, but Lauren had locked the door from inside. When she heard the movement outside the door, she gave Tom a look, and Tom jumped out of the window.

Lauren’s first instinct was that Xiao Mu had sent people to deal with her after he went back, but she did not expect to see Xiao Ye through the peephole outside the door.

At this point, Lauren did not think of hiding.

She pulled the door open, and Xiao Ye’s cold and fierce eyes fell on her. Lauren mocked, “Mr. Xiao, did you listen to your brother’s words and rush here to catch the adulterer?”

She had thought that Xiao Mu would stop after being beaten up by her, but she did not think that he would be so eager to get back at her.

However, she did not do anything wrong and was not afraid!

“You’re still full of reasons.” Xiao Ye laughed coldly, and his gaze became even colder.

“We’ve already signed the agreement. What I do has nothing to do with you. Moreover, I haven’t reached that level yet!” Lauren retorted coldly with her red lips.

Yu Chen, who was behind him, felt that his President was pitiable. His new wife was having an affair and now she talked back to him like this.

“Madam, you can’t say that. You and the President have just gotten married, so many pairs of eyes are watching you. Since you’ve already become someone else’s wife, you should abide by your duty as a wife.”

Yu Chen could not stand it anymore, so he stood up and spoke up for Xiao Ye.

Lauren did not feel guilty because of what he said.

However, he was a good assistant.

“Wait outside the door.” As she spoke, Lauren walked behind Xiao Ye and pushed him into the room.

The room was very large, and it was a luxurious presidential suite.

The moment he entered, Xiao Ye’s gaze scanned his surroundings.

“There’s no need to look. My friend has left.” Lauren noticed his gaze and spoke indifferently.

It would have been fine if she had not mentioned it, but the moment she did, Xiao Ye’s anger rushed to his head. “Lauren, you still have the cheek to mention him to me?”

“There’s nothing to be ashamed of. That’s just my friend. There’s nothing between us.” Lauren’s tone did not change.

Xiao Ye scoffed, “Didn’t you grow up in the countryside? Where did you meet a foreigner?”

Lauren was furious at those words.

“Your brother stalked me with ill intentions, but why are you also doing this?” Lauren glared at him coldly. What kind of special hobby was stalking?

“Shouldn’t I have arranged for someone to protect you since you came into the Xiao Family?”

Xiao Ye’s reason was very good.

However, Lauren refuted him. “Since you arranged for someone to protect me, why didn’t anyone stand up for me when Xiao Mu molested me? Why didn’t anyone inform me when Xiao Mu followed me here?”

Oh, she was caught the moment she met her friend.

Lauren mocked, “Is it because I still can’t have any friends and have to stay in the Xiao family 24 hours a day?”

“Lauren, don’t forget your identity. You’re my wife now, you…”

“There’s no wedding, who knows who I am?”

Before Xiao Ye could finish his sentence, Lauren interrupted him, laughing coldly.

John took the opportunity to knock her out and he sent her there. 

There was neither a wedding nor an announcement.. Lauren had not even disclosed her identity to the public, so who knew who she was?
