After Rebirth I Married My EX- Husband's (Enemy Laurel) novel Chapter 139

Chapter 139 Contempt
“She was with Paul,” Atwood looked around. “She should be inside the hall. If you want to find her, I’ll have someone help you look for her.””
“No need, I was just asking casually,” Laurel smiled and seemingly composedly replied, “Atwood, what’s your impression of Paul?”
“Before, I really didn’t want Shelley to be with him. I believed that my daughter’s partner should come from a similar background. But then I realized, no young gentleman would be interested in my peculiar daughter. So, I stopped trying to prevent her from dating. Initially, I truly looked down on Paul. However, as time went by, I saw how hardworking and ambitious he was, and it touched me a bit. I suspect that eventually, the Cooper family’s business will have to bet handed over. Nathan has already made it clear that he won’t. take over. Now, it’s only Shelley left. But Shelley is completely unreliable. Having Paul around actually brings some
reassurance.” Atwood objectively evaluates Shelley and Paul’s relationship.
Laurel also listened quietly.
Laurel truly felt that Paul was not easy. He indeed deceived everyone.
Including my previous self from the past life.
A few people chatted for a while.

at the mall.”
Irvin obviously couldn’t resist anymore and wanted to nurture her.
Laurel naturally let go of Hayden’s hand.
In front of her father, Hayden clearly became much more honest.
Hayden didn’t dare to have any hint of coercion towards her.
She let go.
Hayden let go obediently.
“Hayden, do you want to join me?” Irvin asked naturally.
“No need, Dad. Chace is over there. I’ll go say hello.” Hayden left with a clear understanding of himself.
In fact, in the upper-class society.
There were still many taboos.
In terms of business-related social activities, even between spouses, they should learn to avoid them.
Otherwise, there is a risk of invading the other party’s property.
Hayden seemed to be very good at socializing and reading people’s expressions.
Laurel watched Hayden’s departing figure.

Laurel followed Irvin into the business networking circle he had established.
She effortlessly socialized under Irvin’s guidance.
From a distance, she shone brightly.
Shelley stood there watching Laurel from a distance.
Actually, when Laurel and Hayden came in, she also saw it. If Paul wasn’t by her side, she would definitely have gone to find Laurel.
But she always felt that in such occasions, Paul needed her more, so she chose to prioritize their relationship over her friends.
“Laurel seemed to have changed a lot,” Paul noticed Shelley’s gaze at the moment and looked over there as well.
Paul really saw a confident and dazzling woman.
She was completely different from the woman she remembered who didn’t like to show herself.
“Hmm,” Shelley nodded. “I always felt like she turned into a strong and unstoppable woman.”
“Perhaps it was because of Bruno’s incident that had a great impact on her, which led to such a significant change,” Paul speculated.
Shelley nodded.
I agreed with Paul’s point of view.
She was thinking, “If one day I also get hurt in love, maybe I

would react the same way.”
It was uncertain.
I would choose to end it all.
Of course.
She didn’t think that Paul would betray her.

Shelley actually didn’t have many advantages since she was young, but she was exceptionally lucky. Apart from not having a mother since childhood, everything else went smoothly for her. Even during her school days, every time she took an exam and clearly had poor grades, she managed to pass and luckily advance to the next level.
She felt that she was lucky.
So she couldn’t meet any sc aumbag.
“Mr. Green arrived,” Paul watched as a middle-aged man walked into the banquet hall. “We were discussing a project loan. I thought I would go and say hello, would you like to come with me?”
“Okay,” Shelley planned to accompany Paul throughout the evening.
On the main battlefield of the Cooper family, she wanted to let everyone know about Paul and her relationship.
They just walked past.
The person named Jeff Green walked past them directly, extending his hand warmly and proactively. “Mr. Deacon, you have returned to your country.”

Paul looked visibly embarrassed.
Shelley turned her gaze and saw Jeff reaching out to shake Nathan’s hand, with a polite expression on his face. “Are you planning to go straight to Cooper Bank to help Atwood manage the bank as soon as you come back?”
“No,” Nathan said, “I had no intention of going to the bank.”
“So you mean we still have to wait for another two years. But you young people have your own ideas, and I fully support. that. I mean, coincidentally, I have a loan contract with your bank. I reckon if you join Cooper Bank, I would like to have a casual chat with you.”
“Paul is in charge of many things at Cooper Bank. You can directly approach him,” Nathan said, clearly noticing the two people next to him.
He gestured to Jeff with his eyes to go find Paul.
Jeff laughed and said, “We have already met a few times. Actually, we have almost finalized everything.”
“That’s good,” Nathan seemed unwilling to say much, appearing distant. “My friend is over there. I’ll go over first.””
“Alright, you go ahead and take care of your business. Mr. Deacon, in the future, you will be in charge of Cooper Bank, so please take good care of it.”
Nathan wanted to explain.
But then he suddenly felt that there was no need to explain.
Anyway, whether he explained it or not, it was the same in her heart.

Of course, it is not surprising that Jeff thought he would take over Cooper Bank.
It was estimated that not only Jeff, but also almost half of the people present believed that Cooper Bank would ultimately be his.
The cause was still Shelley’s determined resistance to dating Paul. Atwood, furious, uttered harsh words, saying that if she ended up with Paul, she wouldn’t receive a single penny from the Cullen family’s wealth. All of it would be left to his stepson, Nathan.
How could Shelley possibly be threatened by her father?
The more threatened she was, the more she wanted to be with Paul.
Once they were together, naturally, the words spoken by Atwood seemed true.
Actually, it’s not just empty words that can make everyone. believe that Atwood will eventually give his inheritance to Nathan, who has no blood relation. It’s also well known that Atwood has a deep affection for Lydia Deacon. As long as Lydia wants it, anything is possible. Plus, Shelley is indeed not capable. She only cares about having fun all day and has no intention of managing the family business. It seems only natural for Atwood to entrust the family enterprise to Nathan.
What’s the matter, this is better than giving it to Paul.
In the upper-class society, poor boys like Paul were still looked down upon.
So, Jeff saw Nathan leave and went to socialize on his own. He

had no intention of actively greeting Paul.
Shelley was furious.
Was everyone blind?
Can’t they see Paul’s efforts and hard work?

Just because of Paul’s birth, does that mean he was inferior and had to be looked down upon?
“Shelley,” Paul seemed to sense her emotions and said gently, “Don’t be angry, I’m fine.”
Anyway, one day he would make everyone here unable to reach his level!
Paul’s eyes flashed with a cold and ruthless gaze.
In the blink of an eye.
