Conquest Game: The Aloof Husband is Dangerous!-Chapter 234 - 207: Applying Pressure

The final stop was "Mickey’s Playhouse," a perfect place to unwind and enjoy a lively music and dance show after a long day. The tunes accompanying the performance always conjure up amusing scenes in one’s mind.

Even though Justin Hawthorne had always shown his cunning intelligence early on, he was still just a child. The amusement park was irresistible to him, and once engaged, he played with reckless abandon...

Jason Hawthorne and Laura Quincy exchanged a glance; both felt that this trip was well worth it.

During the fun, Laura was still a bit worried about Jason’s injury, "Are you okay?"

Jason shook his head, "I’m fine. I asked the attending physician before leaving, and John also sent a doctor to accompany us. I’ll have it taken care of back at the hotel tonight."

Laura knew there was nothing more she could do, "Okay, just take care of yourself."

Jason’s voice was gentle as water, "You’re really concerned about me."

Being teased, Laura pinched him with annoyance, "What will Twinkle and I do if you get hurt?"

Twinkle was obviously lost in the wonder of the amusement world, not noticing his dad and mom flirting openly...

Jason, with a serious expression, said, "Actually, going out now is the safest because no one would expect me to be out having fun while I’m supposed to be recovering. You should trust John’s discretion."

Laura pouted and didn’t say anything more.

A family outing is always filled with beautiful moments. Laura’s DSLR didn’t stop clicking, capturing mostly photos of Twinkle, though there were also family portraits, albeit with one man’s rather awkward poses and expressions...

Jason Hawthorne, who never liked being photographed, broke his rule today. From initially stiff expressions to later relaxed demeanor, he improved quickly.

The progress was due to his son’s teasing, "Daddy, your expression is so weird! Can’t you pose for a photo?"

"Daddy, if you keep this up, Mommy and I won’t take pictures with you in the future!"

"Daddy, why do you still look so unwilling?" 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Faced with his son’s repeated criticism, Jason could only patiently adjust his expression; he didn’t want to be disliked!

The truth was, he rarely took photos...

Uh, to be accurate, he hadn’t taken any before...

Seeing Jason’s aggrieved look, Laura covered her mouth and laughed heartily.

There were just too many laugh-out-loud moments today, hahaha...

Happiness is always wonderful, but true happiness lies in its continuity. Yet, often, the future remains an unpredictable unknown.

For the past two months, tension within Aegis Group had been mounting. Most of the senior shareholders had their own plans, fearing they would choose the wrong side.

With the company’s stock prices falling daily, many of the executives could no longer hold back and just wanted to have a good talk with CEO Jason Hawthorne.

Unfortunately, he was currently injured and hospitalized, refusing to see anyone...

Thus, Mason Cross became the second target of harassment. Almost every day, from morning to night, someone knocked on his office door, and even the phone kept ringing after he went home from work...

He felt he was on the verge of a breakdown. While the boss enjoyed his leisure, having proposed successfully, and then went on a trip with Miss Quincy and the little master, he was left to slog at the company.

Sigh... such a hard life!

That afternoon at 5:30, just as he was about to get up and leave work, he heard someone knocking on the door outside. He couldn’t help but rub his hair, "Come in."

To his surprise, the person who came in was Wade Hawthorne.

Wade took one look at him and knew he was about to leave, so he sat down on the sofa, "Assistant Cross, are you planning to go to the hospital to report work to my fourth brother?"

Mason politely asked, "May I know what the young master wants from me at this hour?"

He chose to ignore the unnecessary question.

Wade glanced at him, "Come to think of it, my fourth brother has been hospitalized for nearly ten days! With today’s medical technology, I’m sure he can come to the company for a meeting and return later without any problem, right?"

Mason respectfully replied, "The young master is right, but whether the patient can be discharged is still up to the doctor. There’s no point in our guessing here."

Wade’s tone grew heavier with dissatisfaction, "Mason! Don’t be so sarcastic just because you’re my fourth brother’s senior assistant! ’Up to the doctor’? I think whether he gets discharged is up to my fourth brother! It’s been eleven days, how much longer does he plan to hide? Haven’t you told him the company’s stock price has hit rock bottom already?"
