Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us! novel Chapter 69

I was a victim back then, but I suppose my daughter’s situation isn’t any different either.

“It’s fine if you don’t know anything.” Juniper grinned, revealing her white teeth. “But how could you fall in love with Mr. Cheater, Mommy? You have a horrible taste!” Ever since the wedding, Juniper had learned that Selena was once in a relationship with the bridegroom until he cheated on her mother with her aunt and drove them both away from home.

Selena helplessly smiled and replied, “I don’t know what was wrong with me, girl, but I guess you’re right. I do have bad taste.” Deep down, she recalled how she used to think that Finneas was a handsome and chivalrous gentleman, only to be disgusted by her own previous preference. I must have been blind back then.

“He is not even half of Mr. Handsome!” Juniper blurted out before she quickly covered her mouth.

In response, Selena only smiled in an awkward manner, as she also disapproved of Pierre’s character. Then, she began to admit her bad taste for choosing two different men who both let her down.

“It’s okay, Mom! You deserve better! Don’t worry, I’ll be sure to find someone else who will treat you better than he does!”

“Alright! Alright! You’ve been going on and on about marrying me off. Are you seriously so afraid that no one wants to marry your mom? Come on, time for bed, girl! Let me worry about my own issue.” Selena gently pinched Juniper’s nose and tucked her in.

“Haha. That’s because you’re stuck with me!”

After messing around with her mother for a while, Juniper dozed off in bed. On the other hand, Selena could hardly fall asleep, as she couldn’t get rid of her bewilderment about Pierre. Why is that guy Pierre Fowler? If he weren’t, we could really start a family of our own. Why did this happen when I just made up my mind to settle down with him? “Hmph! What a shameless guy!” Selena buried herself underneath the blanket, forcing herself to stop thinking about Pierre.

The next morning, Selena took Juniper to Sunflower International Kindergarten for her orientation day, after which she headed to Forever Gown. Since she was still looking for a suitable location for JNS Corporation, she had to make do with her makeshift office until then.

At the same time, Linda had been bombarded with phone calls even when she was charging her mobile device. “President Yard, I’ve been spammed with calls from companies around Astoria wanting to work with us.” Linda was busy answering calls even when she was brushing her teeth earlier that morning, tired yet excited.

“Really?” Selena responded with a calm voice as if she had seen this coming. In fact, she already knew that this would be inevitable the moment she had decided to attend Megan’s wedding. Therefore, she wasn’t surprised at all when she heard what Linda said.

Later, Selena gathered her team members in the meeting room. After everyone was seated, Linda’s phone was still ringing non-stop, forcing her to turn it off for the time being.

“President Yard, fighting solo is no longer a popular strategy nowadays, especially for foreign companies like us. Therefore, we must form an alliance with a local company in order to penetrate the market in Astoria. I heard that Fowler Corporation’s subsidiary, Laya, hasn’t been doing well for the past two years. In fact, Fowler Corporation initially owned forty percent of shares in Laya, but due to its extensive involvement across various business ventures, the management has decided to redeem the shares from the subsidiary. Besides, the unsatisfactory performance of Laya’s partnering company in the past two years is also another huge reason behind the share redemption. Therefore, I say this is our chance to make our move.”

Upon hearing that, Linda coughed and looked down since she was aware of what had happened at the wedding the day before.
