Maury picked up the envelope. It felt like there was ... a pile of cash in it.
He took a few steps to chase after the young man, but he was very curious. So he opened the envelope and found there were pictures in it.
They were pictures of Beverly, as well as director Brooks of the Marketing department of Prosperity Group. Maury had met him in the café.
In the pictures, Beverly and Daniel were shopping and smiling. They looked very happy. They even hugged in several of the pictures. There were also a few pictures of Elsie. The three of them were like a family, all smiling happily.
Maury clenched his fingers, as if he wanted to crush the three people in the photos.
He put the photos away and called Harold, "Where is Beverly?"
He held back his anger and called her by name, not Mrs. Britt as he usually did.
Beverly and Elsie had arrived a long time ago. Although Beverly's family was not that powerful now, Beverly was a capable person. When Eliot was injured and hospitalized, she had been in charge of the company. All employees thought highly of her.
Beverly was in the lounge on the top floor of the hotel now. She had just received the room number that Daniel had sent her. Although she was confused why he came to her at this time, she decided to go there since Daniel had always been bold. She blushed at the thought of some of his behaviors, then took the purse and went upstairs.
At the door of Room 2099, she knocked once and the door opened.
Daniel stepped forward and hugged her. "Missing me already?"
Beverly said coquettishly, "Didn't you invite me?"
Daniel thought that she was playing hard to get. So without thinking much, he reached out and put his arm on her waist and walked in. "Come on, hurry up..."
"You are so horny..."
The door was shut.
Harold appeared on the corridor. He held his mobile phone and hesitated in telling Maury on the other side of the phone. "Mrs. Britt ... is in Room 2099."
Maury was stunned, and was speechless for a while. "What? She's upstairs? In Room 2099?"
Harold didn't answer.
Maury breathed heavily and said, "OK, I know."
His entire body trembled. He wished he could pick up something and kill the shameless couple. But he couldn't, because today was a big day for the Britt Group. He couldn't ruin it.
However, rage bubbled below the surface of his mind. Maury felt his hot and saw blood flowed out. He washed away the blood and then went into the elevator with photos in his hand.
Before the elevator door closed, a woman came in. She looked a few years younger than him, wore light makeup on her face, but her haggard face was also filled with sorrow. She had probably cried before. The corners of her eyes were red, her mouth were tightly pursed and her lipstick smudged. She held a document in her hand. Her entire arm was trembling because she was holding it too tight. Getting closer, one could hear the clattering sound of her teeth.
After Maury pressed the button, he kept telling himself to calm down. However, when he thought of what he was going to see later, he couldn't resist the urge to beat them.
Only when the elevator door opened did she realize that the woman did not press any button and was heading to the same floor as him.
He didn't think too much and walked straight ahead until he reached the door of Room 2099. He stopped and found that the woman in the elevator had also stopped.
She did not look at him, but stared at the number 2099, which could interpreted as "loving someone forever."
She looked at it for a long time until tears fell. Finally, she gritted her teeth and reached out to knock on the door. She did it so hard that the veins on her neck bulged. She looked like she was going to destroy them all.
Maury sensed something was wrong. Why did she know about this room? But before he had the time to think about it, the door was opened and Daniel, being impatient, was standing inside. When he saw the person at the door, he instantly became panicked. "Why, why are you here?"
Behind him, Beverly was slowly putting on her clothes and walking over. "Who is it?"
She raised her eyes, saw Daniel's wife and sneered in her heart. She had planned to meet his wife for a long time. Now she saw this woman, she felt so pleased with her capability of stealing other's man. She looked even more arrogant. Because the door was only halfway open, she thought the man standing beside Daniel's wife was here to help, so she didn't take him seriously.
"Well, well, well, isn't this Mrs. Brooks?" Beverly sneered bitterly. "Why are you here? Looking for your husband?"
"Yes, I'm here to look for my husband. Be careful. Maybe your husband will come here to look for you!" Daniel's wife, Lily, had never worked since their child was born. She was devoted to housework and their child. It was understandable for her to not know Maury. However, the man had followed her from the elevator. She couldn't help but to wonder what the relationship is between him and Beverly.
She was just guessing. She didn't know the person standing beside her was Beverly's husband at all.
Beverly didn't even know Maury was standing outside. Hearing Lily' words, she laughed arrogantly, "Wipe away your tears."
Lily wiped her face. She looked at the shameless man and woman in front of her. She could imagine what they were doing when she knocked on the door. She calmed herself down, but could not hold back her tears.
"Daniel, what is this!" Lily took out a piece of paper that she had tightly held along the way. "Why Beverly and Elsie's name are on your will?"
"What will?" Daniel was confused.
Beverly was surprised for a moment. She tilted her head and looked at Daniel with a smile on her face. "You willed something to us?"
Daniel hadn't made a will.
Hearing Beverly's words, he frowned, "What will?"
"Are you serious?!" Lily unfolded another piece of paper and asked, "What is this?!"
It was the result of a paternity test, showing a 99.99% probability of paternity.
Daniel frowned, his face full of disbelief. "Where did you get it?!"
Lily thought he must be feeling guilty. Then she wiped away her tears and said hatefully, "Is this true? Just tell me. Do you have an illegitimate daughter with her?! That girl named Elsie!"
Beverly was stunned for a moment. No, something was wrong. Elsie was indeed Maury's daughter. How could she be Daniel's child?
Only now did she come to her senses. Why did Daniel's wife suddenly appear?
"Why, why are you here?" She asked, her face filled with panic.
Daniel finally realized that he had been tricked by Beverly. He stared at her with a gloomy expression. "You sent me the room number, and then you asked my wife to come. And the fake will..."
Beverly was so confused and was about to refute when a familiar ring rang.
It was time for the start of the annual meeting. Eliot went to the lounge for Maury, only to see Matthew and Emily sitting there. They said that Maury had gone to the restroom, but Eliot didn't find anyone in the restroom, so he called.
Maury said to his phone, "Room 2099 on the top floor. Come here."
When Beverly heard his voice, she was so shocked that her entire body trembled. As the door was completely opened, she saw Maury clearly.
Daniel was also shocked. Even if Beverly wanted to plot against him, she wouldn't get herself into trouble, would she?
"You, you ....?" Daniel stared at his wife and then at Maury, completely confused why both of them were here.
