128 Chapter 128: The Hymen Was Reconstructed
He looked young, with a baby face, and at first nce seemed just over twenty, but his not–so–naive eyes suggested he was much older.
He wore the same style robe as ire, and while ire was seducing Quentin, he hid in the bathroom, like an invisible man.
“Joker…” ire crossed her arms, “If you don’t speak, no one will think you’re mute.”
Joker chuckled.
“Why, are you so unwilling to talk about how we met? Afraid that Caleb Lockwood will find out what you did in Meridia?”
Before Joker finished talking, ire swung her hand, aiming to p Joker, but he stopped her.
ire withdrew her hand.
She still needed Joker for now, so couldn’t afford to fall out with him.
“How long are you staying in the country this time?”
“Isn’t it because your beloved President Lockwood is pressing too hard?”
Joker looked displeased.
If not for helping ire blow up the divorcewsuit between Caleb Lockwood and Serena Jenningsst time, his overseas data c
wouldn’t have been exposed to Caleb.
“The court over there came knocking, did you expect me to stick around and wait for a jail sentence?”
“Then you didn’t have toe looking for me!”
ire’s indifferent attitude made Joker even more unhappy.
“ire, I’m doing this to help you.”
“I paid you, didn’t I?”
“That money isn’t even enough to fill the gap between my teeth.”
Joker picked up a whiskey from the coffee table and poured himself a ss.
“Don’t forget what you promised me, once you secure your position as Mrs. Lockwood, you’ll give me twenty–five percent of The
Lockwood Group shares, and by then… I’ll be the secondrgest shareholder of the Group.”
ire nced at Joker, unable to see the extent of Joker’s ambition from that baby face.
“Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten.” ire shot Joker a cold look, a mocking smile curled on her lips, “But you have to help me be the
mistress of The Lockwood Group first.”
Joker was taken aback for a moment, thenughed out loud, “Before you returned to the country, weren’t you dering high and mighty
that once you came back, Caleb would immediately ditch that old Serena Jennings and marry you in broad daylight? What happened…”

He suddenly grabbed ire’s robe cor, pulling her close, and whispered in her ear:
“Did he discover your hymen has been repaired?”
ire forcefully pushed Joker away, her face turning red.
Joker immediatelyughed so hard he was doubling over.
The Lockwood Group.
General Manager’s office.
Caleb Lockwood received Wyatt Coleman’s resignation request.
“Trying to make me stop here?” He nced at Wyatt.
“No.” Wyatt shook his head.
Hecked the courage and ability to use his resignation to force Caleb to stop modifying the divorce agreement!
“Really don’t want to do it anymore?” Caleb asked again.
“Yes.” Wyatt nodded.
Struggling back and forth without any clue to modify the divorce agreement, he felt the job was meaningless.
Caleb looked at the 102nd version of the divorce agreement in hand, unable to pinpoint what was unsatisfactory about it.
“Okay, I approve your resignation.”
After Caleb finished speaking, he saw Wyatt let out a sigh of relief.
He smiled slightly, “Seems like you’ve already found your next job, huh?”
Wyatt didn’t hide anything from Caleb and directly revealed his new destination.
“Hmm, not bad.”
Wyatt had been with Caleb for a long time and was quite capable; knowing he had a good ce to go made Caleb d.
Originally, Wyatt could leave, but before leaving, he couldn’t help but say to Caleb:
“President Lockwood<i>, </i>now that I’ve resigned, there’s something I don’t know if I should say.”
“Then don’t say it.”
Caleb replied without looking up.
Wyatt pursed his lips.
He felt Caleb was really arrogant.
Maybe because he had already resigned, maybe because he had held back too long, he still let his true feelings out.
“President Lockwood, if you don’t want a divorce, you should directly tell her. A woman can be appeased easily; you have such good

qualities, she surely wouldn’t want to give you up.”
Seeing Caleb raise his head, eyes seeming to devour him, Wyatt hurriedly ran out of the office.
Caleb called Mr. Miller in.
“President Lockwood, you called for me…”
Mr. Miller stood respectfully before Caleb’s desk.
“Yes.” Caleb nodded and casually said, “Wyatt Coleman resigned, have HR handle it.”
“Understood, President Lockwood.”
“Do you think Serena Jennings can’t bear to leave me?”
“…Huh?”
Mr. Miller was stunned by Caleb’s question.
Is there any logical connection between the previous topic and this question?
Mr. Miller hesitated for a long time, unable to answer.
As he dyed, Caleb’s expression gradually grew unpleasant.
Mr. Miller realized Caleb hoped he would answer “Yes.”
Torn between being honest and ttering his boss, Mr. Miller opened his mouth, intending to choose thetter.
“You may leave!”
But before he could say it, Caleb interrupted him.
Today is the Winter Solstice.
Serena Jennings personally made dumplings and delivered a portion to Lance Lockwood, chatting with him for a while before leaving.
Next, she drove to Serene Meadows Nursing Home to bring dumplings to Audrey Jennings.
Audrey constantly asked about Caleb.
In Serena’s memory, Audrey was very satisfied with Caleb as her son–inw years ago, butpared to Caleb, Audrey still cared more
about her.
However, recently, as long as Audrey was awake, she always asked about Caleb first.
Initially, Serena felt a bit envious. She couldn’t understand how Audrey had be more concerned about Caleb.
But gradually, she realized Audrey might have a premonition or guessed something-
For instance, her divorce fight with Caleb.
Audrey subconsciously feared she’d truly break up with Caleb, so she kept asking about him.

Precisely because of Audrey’s behavior, Serena still couldn’t bring herself to tell Audrey she was about to divorce Caleb.
“Mom, cat slowly, don’t choke.”
Serena watched Audrey gobble down her food, and couldn’t helpughing despite herself.
The food in this nursing home was very good; it was healthy and tasty. Serena had tasted it before, and it was undeniably better than her
cooking.
But she could tell Audrey still preferred her cooking.
In the midst <b>of </b>eating dumplings, the door suddenly knocked.
Serena figured it was the caregiver, but unexpectedly, it was Caleb who walked in.
“Caleb, you’re here! Serena was just saying you’re too busy!”
Seeing Caleb, Audrey’s face immediately lit up with joy.
Serena gazed at Caleb.
She never expected Caleb toe.
Caleb came empty–handed, not looking like he specifically came to visit Audrey.
Audrey invited Caleb to join them for the meal, and Caleb didn’t refuse.
Serena thought to herself, thankfully she made a lot of dumplings, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been enough.
After they finished eating, Audrey rested, and Serena and Caleb left the ward together.
“Why are you here today?”
As they walked side by side down the hallway, Serena asked softly.
Caleb fell into a brief silence.
In the quiet corridor, footsteps sounded clear, and after a while, Caleb’s pleasant voice was equally clear.
“I craved your dumplings.”
