Chapter 67 Shouldn't Be So Close
It turned out that Eric had already arranged for the important facilities to be set up exactly to my taste. After I gave my approval, I wouldn't n
I never expected him to arrange everything for me.
"Do you like it?" He turned to look at me
1 nodded gratefully. “I really do, Eric. Thank you so much. Without you, I could never have gotten this far."
He stared at me silently for a few seconds, and just as he was about to say something;, my phone suddenly rang.
It was a video call from Levi. I stepped away to a comer to answer it.
“Jane, I haven't heard from you these past few days. Is the venue search not going well? If it's not, I'll go with you to check it out when I get
Levi's handsome face appeared on the phone screen.
Smiling, I said, "Don't worry, I've just found a place." I switched the camera and showed him the setup.
He couldn't help but exclaim, “As expected of you, you're amazing at getting things done! I'm completely relieved now!
After chatting briefly with Levi, I hung up the call. When I returned to Eric's side, he was staring at me with a deep gaze. "Who

Apparently, he had seen Levi on the screen. And for some reason, I couldn't shake the feeling that Eric looked a little like a jealous wife que

strange.
I couldn't help but silently complain, but since he had helped me so much, I still forced a perfect smile. “Thank you for your advice. I'll remer
His previously furrowed brows immediately relaxed, and he seemed quite pleased. “Since you're so receptive to advice, I'll treat you to a meal later.”

After returning home that evening, I received a call from my lawyer. The trial date was approaching, and we discussed the details,
"Ms. Brown, don't worry. As long as the materials and evidence are sufficient, we'll definitely win this lawsuit."
I trusted the lawyer Eric arranged, but I was sure that Jeremiah would pull some dirty tricks. As expected, later that evening, 1
received an entertainment news update.
"Mr. Comell and Ms. Elsa were seen
secretly meeting late at night. They were very intimate, even kissing in the car.”
Netizens were abuzz with discussions:
“Isn't Jeremiah with Jane? Why is he out with her sister? What's going on between them?”
"They do seem like a good match, but it's a bit inappropriate..."
"Richi people's circles are really messy."
Looking at the ambiguous photos of Jeremiah and Elsa, I felt no emotion at all, only a sense of irony.
What Jeremiah was doing was clearly an attempt to
