With such an episode, Trixie and Daryl had no interest in doing things any more.
Trixie excused herself for being sleepy, lying on one side of the bed in a daze, her mind in a mess.
Daryl kept sending messages with his head down, but he seemed a little angry, his eyebrows twisted
all the time, and his lips pursed slightly.
Unconsciously, Trixie fell asleep. She vaguely heard Daryl calling to argue with someone, but she didn't
hear the content of the dispute and fell asleep.
When Trixie woke up, it was already ten o'clock the next morning, and it was already one hour late for
clocking in.
Turning on her cell phone in a daze, there were five missed calls, three of which were Daryl's and two
were Frank's.
Trixie casually crossed out Daryl's missed call and called Frank back.
"Did you oversleep?"
Frank's voice was obviously teasing, which made Trixie somewhat embarrassed.
"Sorry, I got up late."
She turned the mobile phone on speaker and threw it aside. Trixie stretched herself. "Can I take half a
day off?"
"Of course."
Frank responded casually, and Trixie's request seemed to be very easy to him.
Trixie struck while the iron was hot, and simply asked him for information about Ms. Smith directly.
Although Jessa's news circulated in the circle, what she knew was only trivial things after all.
Ms. Smith's identity was special. Frank may know more than Jessa so she decided to ask the former.
"By the way, Director Jacob, how is your relationship with my husband?"
Frank thought for a moment and replied, "Generally, there are only a few cooperative contacts, and the
rest is not clear. What's the matter?"
Trixie hesitated for a moment, she didn't know if she should tell Frank she wanted to get the contact
information of Ms. Smith.
Frank is a wise man. Although he was a rich second generation who loved to play, it was not for
nothing to mix in the circle for so many years.
Although Trixie was angry with Daryl, it was still a private matter about her own family, and it will be
disgraceful to be known by outsiders.
When the words were clear, her thoughts were obvious.
While Trixie was hesitating, Frank suddenly spoke with a smile in his tone. "Do you want Ms. Smith's
contact information?"
When Frank answered the question in her mind, Trixie didn't know how to answer the words at all, and
it took her a long time to answer.
"Thank you, Director Jacob. I'll invite you to dinner later."
Trixie thought for a moment, but she still felt that it was not embarrassing to say this polite remark.
However, it was that she owed Frank a favor that's why she invited him to dinner.
Frank was interested in her, which was known to the whole company, but Trixie didn't want to have too
many entanglements with him.
Even now that she and Daryl were not as close as before, she had never thought about Frank.
In marriage, the word "loyalty" is the most important.
Anyway, at least before the divorce, she will never betray Daryl. This was her bottom line.
With Frank's polite two sentences, Trixie hung up the phone.
Since she got Ms. Smith's contact information, she simply took a day off and wanted to meet this Ms.
Smith and have a good talk with her.
She dialed the number and the phone was unexpectedly hung up.
Trixie was patient and dialed it again.
Fortunately, Ms. Smith didn't hang up this time.
"Hello?"
Listening to the voice of a mature woman coming from the other side of the phone, Trixie couldn't help
clenching her hand while holding the mobile phone.
She pretended to be calm and smiled then said, "Is this Ms. Smith? I am Daryl's wife. I want to talk to
you."
Trixie and the woman made an appointment in a coffee shop where she often had afternoon tea with
Jessa.
Originally, it was about 2 o'clock in the afternoon that they will meet, but Ms. Smith was an hour late
and arrived at 3 o'clock.
She was wearing a long red dress and she had long straight black hair. She looked like a variety of
amorous feelings. Besides being beautiful, she had more charm than a 40-year-old woman.
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
Ms. Smith smiled and seemed to dismiss Trixie at all.
Trixie was somewhat dissatisfied with her attitude, but her courtesy could not be lost. She drew a far-
fetched smile and spoke with confidence.
"To talk about my husband."
"There is nothing to talk about. What is there for Daryl to tell me personally?"
Ms. Smith got up impatiently and was about to leave with her bag. Trixie was completely angered by
her actions.
"I know that you always have a hobby of coveting other people's husbands, but even if other people's
husbands are not interested in dealing with you, you can't threaten them to do something for you."
Recognizing Trixie's words, Ms. Smith glanced at Trixie and sat back in her position.
"Don't beat around the bush with me, just say what you want."
"You knew what I am talking about, there is no need to play dumb."
Trixie stared straight into her eyes, and she was uncomfortable.
The two stared at each other for a long time, but Ms. Smith still refused to be weak.
"I just have a crush on Daryl and what can I do? What do you think you can save by coming to me
today?"
Ms. Smith's attitude and tone were outrageous, and Trixie could only clench her hand.
Taking a deep breath, she finally stabilized her mind.
"I know how to pay into a deep pocket, of course not to be taunted. However, I don't know if the running
water of the head office was the same as your temper, and could fight to the end."
Ms. Smith, a woman, couldn't support her company so easily alone, let alone make it bigger.
The issue among them simply cannot stand scrutiny.
Trixie took a fancy to this before she came, which was also her confidence to find Ms. Smith.
This woman just looks tough, but in fact she couldn't stand scrutiny at all.
Therefore, this time Trixie won over her.
The woman kept her head down and did not speak, but Trixie obviously felt that her mood was very
agitated.
The two women were silent for a while. But after some time, Ms. Smith couldn't help opening her mouth
first.
"I am really interested in Daryl, and even threatened him using dividends from this project, but he just
disagreed."
Trixie had a little relief in her heart.
"So you guys didn't have anything before?"
Ms. Smith nodded. "No."
Stone hanging in Trixie's heart landed instantly. It seemed that she misunderstood Daryl again.
But on second thought, Trixie seemed to think of something again and looked at the woman opposite to
her. "Did you go back to the city with him that night?"
"Yes."
Trixie relaxed, but the woman's next sentence seemed to pour a bucket of cold water on her.
"But I took him to the door of the bar and left. I didn't pick him up until an hour later. I went to go back to
the company to get the documents."
This sentence hit Trixie's head buzzing, and she suddenly felt a little trance, leaving only two things in
her mind.
The photo sent by Frank was true.
Daryl lied to her again.
Ms. Smith didn't need to lie to her at all, so Daryl really had other women outside.
This idea made Trixie's head burst.
She believed Daryl countless times, but who knew that the result would be like this.
