Chapter 106 I obediently stopped moving, but I also hugged Brandon tighter.

I could hear the strong, steady thumping of his heartbeat. Only then did I realize that I was lying on his chest. However, I couldn't care less because I was too afraid.

My arms were practically squeezing him. This was the only way I could steady myself, making sure only the elevator was swaying.

After a while, I felt that the elevator had stopped swaying. I also forgot to let go of Brandon until he said, "Is that your new colleague?" I quickly pushed myself out of his embrace and looked down.

What I saw shocked me! Moreover, rage started to burn insideas I pressed the down button to descend. When I reached the lower ground, Jewel smiled atwith her signature simpering smile as she called out, "Ms. Crown." I wasn't as pleasant as her as I barked, "What are you doing here?" I didn't want to be rude, but as a pregnant woman, it was unsafe for her to be here. Besides, this place wasn't open to the public, and many things hadn't cleared the safety checks yet. If anything untoward happened, the responsibility was too great to bear for any party! Besides, her unborn child was an orphan, which was even more precious.

However, her reply leftdumbfounded, She said, "I'm here to work." I could hardly believe my ears. "What did you say?" "Mr. Chris wantedto chere and oversee the safety checks." I nearly exploded upon hearing that. "Chris must be out of his mind! Are you tellingthat he wanted you to follow up with the safety checks?" My velling caught the attention of others. Jewel wasn't here alone. She was also with the project's manager. Kara and Conrad were also here before Jewel 2/2 came.

"What do you mean, Ms. Crown?" Jewel looked wronged and uncomfortable.

"I mean, as a pregnant woman, it's not appropriate for you to be here." While saying this, I whipped out my phone and called Chris.

He didn't answer my call for a long while, and I started to wonder if he was ignoringon purpose.

He finally answered the call when it was about to drop. "Ms. Crown, what's the matter?' I asked, "Why did you send Jewel here?" I was asking him from a professional standpoint and had no other personal intentions. I always dared to say what was on my mind. "She's there for work. Didn't she tell you? Chris said nonchalantly.

I looked at Jewel, then asked Chris, "Is it appropriate for her to work here? Who's going to be responsible if anything happens to her?" "That would be you, of course." My jaw dropped.

Without waiting for my reply, he continued, "Madeline, you're them person in charge of the amusement park project.

"Not only do you need to ensure the amusement park is completed and ready for operation in time, but you also need to ensure the safety of our also need to ensure th employees. This is your responsibility. Do you understand?" After that, I realized he was doing this on purpose. One Conrad wasn't enough, so he placed Jewel here too to control me.

I gripped the phone tightly. Looking at Jewel's pitiful expression, I snorted. "If

someone is hell-bent on throwing themselves toward death, Ccan't be responsible for that." Jewel's expression becuglier.

Chris was finally angered as he exclaimed, "Madeline, how could you be so cruel?" Ads by Pubfuture
