I’ll take a shower real quick.”
I nodded. But before leaving, Caleb sucked on my nipple and teased in a low voice, “Would you Like to join me?”
I was a little shy, so I pushed him away and complained, “Hurry up.”
While laughing, Caleb retreated into the bathroom.
With Caleb gone, I calmed down a little and picked up the shirt from the floor.
Just as I put it on, Ivy became very restless.
“What’re you doing?
Honey, don’t shrink back! This is a very good opportunity to be with your mate!”
“I know, I know.”
The strong Lust just now had made me recklessly brave.
But just as I was reassuring Ivy, I noticed an opened file bag on the floor. It must’ve been swept off the table just now.
I squatted down to pick up the files and was about to put them back in the bag when something caught my eye. The document on the floor—it was a new relocating plan!
I quickly leafed through it and found that this plan was very similar to the previous one that had gotten wet. However, the proposed cost in this plan was shockingly high.
It didn’t take Long for me to put two and two together. Perhaps this was the reason why the negotiation to buy the town earlier had failed miserably.
No wonder Caleb had asked Janiya to make the Barton family lower the cost.
Debra’s POV:
Without a moment to lose, I immediately took out my mobile phone, snapped a picture of the file, and sent it to Harlan.𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.𝘤𝘰𝘮
This was the most concrete proof of Adam’s shady business, trying to sell the town behind Gale’s back. As long as we had key evidence, it would be much easier for us to deal with him in the future.
Knock! Knock!
Ny heart leaped to my throat as someone knocked on the door.
I hurried to put my phone back in my pocket.
“Why’s the door Locked? It’s just me, Caleb.”
It sounded Like Carlos’ voice.
Flustered, I clammily tried to stuff the files back inside the document bag, hurried to put the bag back where I found it, and then ran to open the door.
The annoyed expression on Carlos’ face turned into that of surprise when he saw me.
