Mandy Ainsley remained indifferent just as before while a wisp of nervous expression flashed past Madam Ainsley's face involuntarily. "What's going on, hubby? The contract has been terminated?" asked Madam Ainsley with a slightly fearful expression.

She speculated that Julian Shaw might possibly seek revenge.

However, she did not expect that Julian's revenge would come so soon.

"This is already the third terminated contract in the past few days." Ray Ainsley felt as if he was about to be driven to madness.

The contracts that he managed to acquire with great effort were all lost due to Mandy's impulsive urge.

"That's the third one huh." Madam Ainsley was rather anxious. "How much have we lost?"

"The estimation of the loss is already over 100 million!" said Ray.

"Over 100 million!" Madam Ainsley was startled." Julian Shaw is too ruthless."

"Have you not considered that he would be so ruthless when you allowed Mandy to do what she wanted?" Ray glared at her. "Julian is never a kind soul while

Susan Shelby is his dearest spouse. Mandy almost hurt Susan and the result of her action is even worse than attacking Julian himself!"

"So what should we do now..." Madam Ainsley was already out of ideas.

"What else can we do? Head to the Straws to offer an apology! If we let this drag on, the result will be too dreadful to contemplate!" Ray glared at Mandy. "Go and get changed quickly. Then follow me to the Shaws to apologize."

"I won't." Mandy grunted coldly. "It was not my fault."

"It wasn't your fault?" Ray's entire body was trembling in rage. "Are you not happy before you take down this entire family with you?"

Mandy refused to speak stubbornly.

Ray was so furious that he started searching for something around him so he could beat her.

"Hubby, calm down. Allow me to speak with Mandy." Madam Ainsley hastily comforted Ray, then looked toward Mandy. "Mandy, as long as you're willing to apologize to Susan obediently, I will take you to America."

"Really?" Mandy's eyes lit up.

Ever since the previous incident, Joseph Shaw returned to America with painstaking publicity while not much was heard about Luke Jenkins and

Charlotte Jenkins. However, it was speculated that

they were with Joseph.

The act of going to America signified that she would stand a chance to meet Luke.

At the thought of this, Mandy's entire body shivered in excitement.

"It's true, of course." Madam Ainsley nodded solemnly. "Since when have I ever lied to you? However, you must make sure that you apologize to Susan properly." 'Apologize to Susan?'

At the thought of this, Mandy felt wronged. 1

However, she could endure it so she could see Luke!

"Alright, I promise." Mandy clenched her teeth and took on the task.

"Why haven't you gotten changed yet?" Madam Ainsley chuckled.

Mandy went upstairs. Ray could not help looking at Madam Ainsley. "Why did you promise to take her to America?"

"What's there to be afraid of?" Madam Ainsley said," She just wants to meet Luke. It's true that Luke is in America and yet America is so huge. How easy can it be to replace a person there? I shall accompany her to tour around the country and then I shall take her back when we can't replace the person after a few days of searching." "This is a smart idea." Ray could not help laughing and nodded approvingly. He agreed that this was the best way to resolve the issue too.

Mandy got changed real soon and came downstairs. Ray prepared the gift meticulously and took his wife and daughter to the Shaws.

A few people were enjoying afternoon tea over at the Shaws. They received a call from the doorman saying that Ray and a few people had come seeking an interview.

Julian raised an eyebrow and said with a calm expression, "Let them come in."

It did not take long before the three Ainsleys walked into the house.

As soon as they entered through the door, Ray glared at Mandy. "Apologize to Mrs. Shaw, quick!"

Mandy clenched her teeth in rage when she noticed Susan's cold, indifferent gaze.

She could not help feeling the burning rage in her heart for a moment.

She had always looked down on Susan from above. She did not notice when, but the situation had actually evolved to Susan looking down to her.

Mandy did not want to yield to Susan, but at the thought of meeting Luke, she clenched her teeth, lowered her head, and said, "I'm sorry, Susan." "I can't hear it." Julian placed down the tea cup calmly. Mandy clenched her fists, then she continued to speak. "I'm sorry, Susan!"

One could tell from the tone of her speech that she was recalcitrant.

Susan smiled and refused to listen again so she said straightforwardly, "Alright, the incident that took place in the banquet is considered forgotten at my level. However, Mandy injured Serenity earlier so she has to apologize to Serenity as well."

Mandy clenched her teeth and apologized to Serenity Wright.

Serenity scoffed coldly right away. "The apology is made unwillingly so I can't be bothered to accept it either. However, if there is a next time, I won't be so gentle when I make a move." Mandy's gaze changed involuntarily.

Her wrist that was twisted by Serenity was still bruised now and yet Serenity claimed that she was being gentle.

The matter was considered forgotten since Susan and Serenity had already said so.

However, Ray did not have the courage to be at ease so he shot an anxious glance at Julian. "What do you think, Mr. Shaw?"

Julian lowered his gaze. "If it were me, I wouldn't have given you the chance to apologize at all. However, Susie is kindhearted and told me not to fuss about this matter too much in view of the baby. For Susie's sake, we shall agree to let the matter drop now. All of you can leave."

Julian's tone was without the slightest courtesy but Ray behaved as if he was granted amnesty.

"Here are some gifts for you. We won't bother you anymore." Ray placed down the gifts, then brought Madam Ainsley and Mandy to leave.

He felt heavyhearted when he came, yet he felt much more at ease when he left.

The visit from the Ainsleys was but a short interlude for the Shaws.

Everyone did not pay much attention to that.

After a while, someone delivered boxes and boxes of items.

"What are those?" asked Susan in curiosity.

Julian walked over and opened up the boxes personally.

Susan was rendered speechless upon taking one glance.

Every box contained all sorts of baby products.

There were over one hundred types of baby bottles amongst the items.

"You bought all these? Are you crazy?" Susan could not refrain the urge to roll her eyes. "Two baby bottles are enough!"

"What if our baby doesn't like it?" Julian said in all righteousness, "We can only know what he likes after trying everything."

The corners of Susan's lips twitched once. Then, she picked up a remote-controlled airplane. "Then will you please tell me if a remote-controlled airplane like this can be used by a newborn baby?" "What if our baby is a genius?" Julian's voice grew softer and softer under Susan's deathly stare.

Susan was so infuriated by Julian she wanted to laugh.

Could a genius baby play with a remote-controlled airplane as a newborn?

Julian had simply gone mad.

"If he can't, he can play with it when he's older," said Julian.

The corners of Susan's lips twitched once. "As for the toy airplanes, you bought more than several types already... I don't think he is capable of playing everything."

"It's better to be safe than sorry." Julian said in all apparent seriousness, "This is still considered quite a small amount. If it's a baby girl, just for the assortment of dolls, I bought ten boxes."
