Conquest Game: The Aloof Husband is Dangerous!-Chapter 149 - 141: Kicked Out by My Sister?

She suddenly felt a twinge of envy in her heart...

Ha ha!

There’s no woman who doesn’t dream of walking down the aisle with the man she loves, wearing a white dress and standing happily by his side...

She once thought that day wasn’t so far away...

But now she knows it was all a dream...

Suddenly, a surge of hatred rose in her heart, and she smashed the phone displaying Serena Jennings’ happiness to pieces...

In the middle of the night, Laura Quincy suddenly felt extremely thirsty, perhaps because of the squid strips she ate after dinner...

Groggily, she got up to find a drink in the living room, raising her arm to feel for the switch on the wall.

The light clicked on with a "pop".

At the same time, a sharp scream echoed in the empty room. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

When she saw Jason Hawthorne sitting on the sofa smoking, Laura Quincy clearly hadn’t fully woken up and involuntarily cried out, her body instinctively rearing back until she fell onto the side of the sofa.

Seeing she was about to fall, Jason Hawthorne sprung up quickly, took a long stride, and caught her by the waist. Due to the momentum, he leaned forward, and they both tumbled onto the sofa together.

"Let..."

This time, Jason Hawthorne swiftly let go of her lips, then leisurely got up, extending a friendly hand to help Laura Quincy up.

"You did that on purpose, didn’t you?"

Laura Quincy spoke with displeasure, "Damn man! Sitting on the sofa smoking in the middle of the night without turning on the light! Making her think..."

Just thinking about it made her angry!

Keeping him around never leads to anything good!

And even if she were to fall, it would still be on the sofa! Why did he have to pretend to care like a cat grieving for a mouse?!

"I... I really didn’t know you would get up in the middle of the night..."

Laura Quincy bit her lip, "Whether I get up or not, it’s scary for you to sit on the sofa smoking in the middle of the night without turning on the light!"

Jason Hawthorne felt wronged, "I was just..."

Laura Quincy didn’t want to hear his explanation at all, "Forget it! I don’t want to hear your explanation! Leave when it’s daylight, my place is too small, you’re not welcome here!"

Then, ignoring him, she went straight to the refrigerator.

Jason Hawthorne felt he had stumbled right into it...

"Thorne Group"

Connor Sterling’s face was all dark lines. Ever since Miss Sutton came to the company as an intern assistant, Young Master Thorne hadn’t looked happy, making Connor afraid to even enter the CEO’s office.

But what could he do? He’s the CEO’s senior assistant after all.

Whether there’s something to do or not, he has to take a trip to the ice chamber.

"Fire her for me."

"Huh?"

In the middle of reporting work, Asher Thorne suddenly came out with this statement, leaving Connor Sterling stunned.

His perplexed look made Asher Thorne displeased, speaking with a cold voice, "Do you want me to fire you instead?"

Connor Sterling, full of sweat, touched the sweat on his forehead and replied nervously, "Boss, Miss Sutton really wasn’t arranged here by me, I didn’t know anything about it!"

Asher Thorne’s eyebrows raised slightly, fingers tapping the desk with some impatience in his tone, "I’m telling you to fire her!"

Connor Sterling’s stress increased, "Boss, this was coordinated directly with your mother by the Sutton Family."

His implication was: Isn’t it inappropriate to fire Sophie Sutton just like that?

Asher Thorne directly threw the file in his hand at him, voice cold as ice, "Fire her immediately!"

Even though the Thorne Family was a diplomatic lineage, they still ventured into the business world. Asher Thorne’s mother was the daughter of a wealthy businessman, who, after marrying into the Thorne Family, used her capabilities to take over the CEO position of "Thorne Group". Under her leadership, "Thorne Group" grew several times over, with assets multiplying greatly...

She greatly pleased Old Mrs. Thorne, and now she has retired into the background, leaving the company for her son to manage, which is why Asher Thorne’s true identity is the CEO of "Thorne Group", while simply holding a nominal position as the head of the Translation Department Group Three at "Aegis Group".

It was essentially a form of support for Jason Hawthorne.

Connor Sterling was drenched in cold sweat; after working with the boss for so many years, he knew the boss’s temper very well, and it was clear he was already extremely angry.

He could only nod, "Yes, I understand, sir."

After leaving the CEO’s office, the ice on his body immediately began to melt. He took a deep breath and returned to his office to call the head of the HR department.

"Fire Sophie Sutton immediately."

"This..."

"Do you want to get fired too?"

"Got it."

Ten minutes later, the order reached Sophie Sutton’s ears, and she couldn’t believe it, grabbing her resume and heading straight for Asher Thorne’s office.

But she was stopped by the secretary outside, not allowed to enter.

"Don’t stop me! Let me in!"

"Miss Sutton, you really can’t go in."
