"However, it's not the same for Brilliant Audit. It's only been in the industry for less than two years. It's still a small company after all, although it has gained a good reputation and profit. It will go down a lot faste than you think once it hits externally. Many companies have pulled out working with Brilliant Audit this year."

I did not expect it to be like this. I was overwhelmed and frowned, "So, Sawyer must replace other big companies before the end of the year to sustain."

He nodded and said, "Yes."

"Has Roberts Group pulled out?" I asked. Anne grabbed and pulled my hand with her four small little fingers, her round wide eyes curiously looking around.

"No, but the contract signed last year only includes Roberts Group in Ucrebury. I moved the head office to Jarold City this year. Therefore, he gained only half of the investment." "Shelley Group is still there, isn't it?"

While driving into Flora Hill, he said, "Same goes to Shelley Group. Alford Audit was already handling Shelley Group in case you forgot."

Yes, I was kidnapped by Michael because of that.

I was really disturbed by that incident, I could not describe my feelings at all.

It was already noon by the time we reached the villa, "Look after her, I'll take her things up," said Hendrix after carrying Anne into the baby's room.

I nodded, but I turned around after taking a few steps and saw Hendrix who was still unloading things from the trunk, "Hendrix, I'm hungry."

I was hungry. I had not eaten breakfast and did not eat anything at lan's place either.

Hendrix paused for a moment, then he smiled and asked, "Are you blaming me for not feeding you? Where is the egg I gave you this morning?"

"I lost it at lan's place!" I pursed my lips, looked at him innocently with my face puffed up.

He couldn't help bursting into laughter, "What do you want to eat? I'll cook for you later!"

"I will eat anything you make!" I replied with a smiley face. Seeing him unloading things from the trunk, I couldn't help telling him, "Hendrix, you look like a family man now."

He looked at me with his darkening eyes and said, "Come and close the door."

I nodded, closed the door, and followed him. I asked childishly, "You do not have to get married if you can give birth and feed the baby, don't you?"

He turned around looking at me, pursed his lips, and raised his eyebrows, "What exactly do you want to say?"

"I just want to give you a compliment!"

"Action speaks louder than words!" Hendrix gazed at me after putting Anne's belongings in the baby's room.

He was so much taller than me. I crept into him, raised my head, and kissed him on the cheek. Then I smiled and asked, "What about this?"

His eyes darkened, "I will deal with you tonight!"

I...

Anne hardly needs any care. All she did was drink milk, slept, and curiously explored the surroundings with her big round eyes.

Occasionally, her little hands would reach out to grab things that caught her eye. Hendrix was busy in the kitchen. He left his mobile phone in the baby room when he was carrying Anne's belongings. When the phone vibrated, Anne would listen attentively trying to replace out the source of the sound.

I did not answer the call, instead, I shouted, "Hendrix, your phone is ringing."

There was a clatter of water in the kitchen, and he answered, "you take it!"

Then there was no more sound in the kitchen.

I looked at the caller ID; it was Andrea.

I frowned and answered the call. Before I could say anything, I heard a cry from the other end of the line.

"Hendrix, can you come to see me? I don't understand why my mother wants me to stay in the hospital. Why isn't she taking me back to the Pearis Manor? Hendrix, is she leaving me?" Valerie does not want Andrea to live in Pearis Manor? Why?
