Chapter 129
“Mr. Hayes, do you still need to coax people?” Michael’s tone was filled with surprise and horror.
‘Oh my god, who is so bold as to let the dignified Mr. Hayes put down his arrogance to coax her… Michael thought.
Alistair raised his eyebrows and glanced at him. “Do you know how to do it or not?”
Michael shuddered and nodded humbly. “I… I know a little.”
Alistair smiled in satisfaction and pointed at the office chair opposite him. “Sit. I’ll triple your overtime pay for the time you’re going to waste. I’ll pay you personally.”
Michael’s eyes lit up and he sat down obediently. “Thank you, Mr. Hayes.”
At the same time, he apologized to his girlfriend in his heart. ‘I’m sorry, baby. It’s not that triple overtime pay is too tempting, but it’s rare to have the chance to know Mr. Hayes’s gossip. It is priceless.
The next day, Audrey went to the company with two dark circles under her eyes.
When her colleagues saw her like this, they could not help but discuss it privately in the pantry.
“Did you see that? Ms. Rhodes came here with dark circles under her eyes again today.” She clicked her tongue before continuing, “How intense the
sex must be!”
“You guys are too dirty…”
Someone laughed. For a moment, the few of them seemed to have found a common topic and started chatting and laughing.
“Ms. Rhodes has been ravaged to this extent. One look and you can tell that her husband is amazing in th
“He’s so handsome and ‘capable‘. Ms. Rhodes’s good fortune is enviable.”
Audrey happened to pass by the door and was speechless.
aspect.”
She sighed, ‘Gosh. Each of these young ladies in the company usually looks more serious than the other. Why are they chatting so casually in private?‘
She also wondered how this rumor came about.
She slept alone every day. She didn’t know why they said she was having fun every night and making out until dawn.
‘Rumors can kill people, Audrey thought.
However, Audrey could not help but recall how Alistair almost succeeded last time.
Alistair held back even at that moment.
‘Who would believe that a couple who had been married for more than a month had yet to have sex?‘ Thinking of this, Audrey felt even more depressed.
Just as she entered the office with her emotions, there was a knock on the door.
After hearing Audrey’s reply, Emily entered the office with a blue folder.
“Audrey, you asked me to check Ethan’s information, I’ve found a clue.” As she spoke, she walked to the front of the office and handed the document to Audrey.
Audrey’s eyes darkened. She instantly restrained her emotions and flipped through the information.
Emily explained seriously, “Ethan’s full name is Ethan Wright. He’s doing well in the underworld and has connections with some officials. He does have some status in Riverdale.
“I also found out that his youngest son, Noah Wright, had three wives, but all three of them died not long after they got married.
“And the strangest thing is that the family of each of his wives received a generous sum of money from Ethan after their daughter died.
“Noah even said to the public that he would support the elders of these families for the rest of their lives. Therefore, even though he has the reputation of jinxing his wife, there are still people willing to marry their daughters over.”

Audrey’s eyes narrowed as she stared at the report on the information.
Noah’s three wives had all died in accidents.
Among them, the one who lasted the longest was his second wife. She lived for seven months after marrying him, and the other two died about three months later.
Such a coincidence couldn’t happen in this world.
Audrey knew there must be some unknown reason.
Emily watched from the side as Audrey squeezed the document in her hand until it deformed.
‘How did Ethan provoke Audrey to make her so angry? Audrey’s expression was not so dark even when she found out Dominic had run away from the marriage, Emily thought.
Emily rolled her eyes and reminded her in a low voice, “Audrey. Ethan’s way to wealth is not legal. His methods are even more despicable and low- level. You have to be careful.”
“I know. Thank you, Emily.”
“You’re welcome.” Emily waved her hand and pointed at the door. “Then I’ll go out and get busy first.”
Audrey–nodded slightly.
The door closed, and Audrey slowly looked out the window.
Black clouds swept across the sky, and a violent wind raged.
From the looks of it, a storm was about to arrive…
