He Clings to Me Every Night

Chapter 733: Chapter 733: Discovering Clues

Seeing the latest hot searches, Grace Ziegler felt as though she had fallen into an ice pool, a chill instantly creeping over her entire body, causing her to feel terrible inside and out.

However, Grace refused to give up. Perhaps this was just a game for Chief Daniel Marshall, or maybe it had something to do with the woman backed by Jenkins Group.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Actually, having worked in the Marshall Corporation, Grace had heard gossip that the man and woman’s relationship was purely transactional. At the time, news was already circulating that Marshall Corporation was planning to acquire Jenkins Group.

Later, however, Marshall Corporation halted the acquisition and instead turned to acquire the Smith Group.

Clearly, the relationship between Chief Daniel Marshall and this woman was likely nothing more than business, with little or no genuine affection involved. Their seemingly loving relationship was just for show, a false image created through acting, meant to deceive the public.

If Jenkins Group collapses, that woman would be worthless, a complete nobody, with no airs to put on and certainly incapable of maintaining the calm demeanor of a strong woman.

By then, once the woman no longer had any value to exploit, Chief Daniel Marshall would surely cast her out of high society.

Thinking of this, Grace secretly rejoiced, her hope rekindled.

Suddenly, Grace was fervently wishing for the downfall of Jenkins Group and for the woman to get lost.

…

That evening, Daniel Marshall was taking a bath.

Olivia Jenkins was applying skincare products at the dressing table.

All of a sudden, both of Daniel’s phones started ringing.

And they continued to beep with multiple messages and WeChat notifications.

Unwittingly, Olivia glanced at Daniel’s cell phones, the screens were still lit, some of the content visible.

Reflexively, Olivia paused from applying her skincare products, her gaze landing on the two phones belonging to Daniel.

The message on Daniel’s personal phone was from Binzhou, briefly assuring him that his condition was not worrisome.

The phone used for work-related matters had received a WeChat message from Grace Ziegler.

It turned out that Daniel and Grace weren’t completely out of touch.

Was everything he had done merely putting on a show?

Was all his affection just an act?

Didn’t he know Grace’s ambitions?

Did he intend to indulge Grace’s cunning, or was he hopelessly infatuated with another woman?

Suddenly, Olivia felt as if she had been struck by lightning, a sensation of smoke rising from her head and a sudden gloom descending on her face.

Her heart involuntarily twisted in pain.

Olivia felt an unsettling discomfort in her chest, a feeling she couldn’t quite describe.

Suddenly, Daniel’s work phone rang again, receiving another WeChat notification from Grace.

Grace was saying she would bring Daniel some local products from Binzhou the next day. She begged him to accept them as a token of affection from her and her daughter.

Suddenly, Olivia felt as if she was suffocating, her mind turning blank.

Instinctively, she withdrew her hand, her pupils dilating as her emotions roiled within her.

Had Daniel not only visited Kyoto during the past ten days but also Binzhou?

Did he stealthily go to Binzhou?

Were they together with Grace?

Had they met Grace’s parents?

If they had met her parents, what exactly was going on between them?

The more Olivia thought about it, the more chaotic her thoughts became, feeling like her head was about to explode.

She quickly finished applying her skincare products and climbed into bed. She picked up a book and pretended to read nonchalantly.

…

A few minutes later, Daniel, clad in a bathrobe, emerged from the bathroom.

Just as he would usually do, Daniel first walked over and hugged Olivia, planting a few kisses on her face.
