Justin Kingston’s face softened, his lips curved into a gentle arc.
He didn’t express his stance, so she wouldn’t push it further.
Mia Lane let go of her hand, casually changing the subject, "What were you thinking about by the pool? Not chatting with the Queen?"
"Having you with is enough." He took her hand, "Co on, let’s go have so cake. Tonight’s pastry chef is specially invited from Freyne, his skills are exceptional." He put down the wine glass.
Ever since being drugged seven years ago, Justin Kingston has been cautious.
At the long dining table, he prepared a portion of dessert for her, "Try it."
"Aren’t you eating?" As soon as she spoke, she rembered he couldn’t eat.
So, under his gaze, she earnestly tasted the dessert, "It’s pretty good."
"Eat more if you like it." Justin Kingston’s eyes softened.
The Group’s dia crisis was officially resolved, the Queen bought the design drafts at triple the original price just because they were so good.
Everyone in the company breathed a sigh of relief, except Justin Kingston.
Because he still had a few mysteries to solve, naly her identity.
The news ca out, the Eldorian Queen ultimately chose Mrs. Kingston’s work and purchased it at several tis the price.
Mrs. Kingston, who was aiding poverty in the village, could actually design?
The internet buzzed with speculation, various versions erged.
The most widespread version was—
To stop outsiders from criticizing him for marrying a bumpkin, CEO Kingston supposedly went to great lengths, even giving her his own work.
Far away in Clearwater Bay, Kristina Kingston watched this news, she was particularly angry, "Ridiculous!!"
Mary brought over a cup of tea, "Madam, in any case, the Group’s crisis has been resolved, you can have a good sleep tonight."
"Justin Kingston clearly let this girl steal Monica Usher’s thunder!" Kristina Kingston’s cold eyes beca even colder, "Doing this deliberately to defy !"
"Madam..."
"She can design? She caught the Eldorian Queen’s eye?" Kristina Kingston mocked, "Doesn’t she know her own limits? How does she manage to captivate my son so much?!"
"Madam, please don’t be upset, harming your health is not worth it."
"Ever since this woman ca into the family, Justin Kingston’s visits have obviously decreased!"
Evening.
Erald Cove.
In the brightly lit mansion, Mia Lane, freshly bathed and dressed in casual ho attire, ca to the children’s room.
She had a serious expression as she closed the door.
Gigi and Dolly stood in front of her like two children who had done sothing wrong, looking at her pitifully.
The silence in the room made their little heads buzz.
"Did you have anything to do with the leak of the design drafts?" Mia Lane asked sternly, "Tell the truth."
Sure enough, nothing escapes Mommy’s eyes.
Gigi had no choice but to nod.
But he was also aggrieved, "But Daddy hasn’t even asked , why are you asking ? And looking... very angry. You got the Eldorian Queen’s recognition, you should be happy! See who dares to say you’re not fit for Daddy after this!"
Outside the door, Justin Kingston withdrew his hand that was about to knock, he stopped his steps.
"Do you know that these drafts were almost thrown away as garbage?" Mia Lane’s eyes were sharp, "You act recklessly without consulting , taking a risk! You’re risking your dad’s company!"
Outside, Justin Kingston’s brow furrowed lightly.
Gigi had his reasons, "If I consulted you, you certainly wouldn’t agree."
Dolly drooped her little head, "Mommy, don’t bla brother, brother is doing it for your good."
"Still not admitting fault, insisting you’re in the right?" Mia Lane coldly stared at them, "Gigi, if it weren’t for cleaning up your sses, I wouldn’t bother with the Kingston Group! You know? The more I’m exposed, the more he’ll resent ! You think it’s for my good?"
"But he’s Daddy, we’ve agreed to share difficulties!" Gigi retorted stubbornly.
"But you caused this difficulty now!" Mia Lane pointed at him warningly, "Listen! If this happens again, I’ll sever our mother-son relationship!"
Outside, Justin Kingston’s face suddenly darkened, he turned and left.
Returning to his room, he opened the wine cabinet and took out two goblets and a bottle of Lafite.
Pouring two glasses of wine, he recalled her earlier conversation with the children...
Designer Emma, Pharmacist Cora Yates, she’s truly a treasure girl, yet so low-key.
No wonder the kids were raised so well.
When Mia Lane walked into the room, she slled the lingering aroma of wine, and saw him by the window.
"To thank you, I plan to take you on a date tomorrow." Justin Kingston turned around with a wine glass.
