Chapter 25 Not Allowed to Mention Other Men’s Names
In the spacious dining room.
Joanna kowtowed heavily and said, “Mr. Russell, please spare my life, considering that I’ve been working here for so long. I had no choice, my son was still in their hands!”
His voice was indifferent, “If you make a mistake, you have to accept punishment, right? Brent.”
Brent walked in and said, “Yes, Mr. Russell.”
“Take her to the secret room and handle her according to the family rules.”
Joanna suddenly looked up and said, “Mr. Russell, I beg you, spare me!”
Russell’s thin lips curled up, “It seems like you finally remembered what kind of person I am.”
Knowing roughly what mistakes Joanna had made, Brent had already arranged two bodyguards to stand at the door.
As long as Russell gave the order, the bodyguards would take the person away.
When Joanna was dragged out of the dining room, she was still begging for mercy incessantly.
“Mr. Russell, I didn’t want to go to Snake Forest…”

Emilee came in and quickly tidied up the mess on the floor, and poured out all the food on the dining table.
Russell’s gaze turned sharp as he watched the breakfast that Zoey had made for him being poured down.
Zoey sat on his lap, her hands wrapped around his neck, “I would have made it for you again.”
Russell’s gaze softened slightly, “How did you find out?”
Zoey knew that this day would come sooner or later, so she had already prepared an explanation.
“Actually, I know a little bit about traditional medicine. On the night we got married, I took your pulse and found that there were two conflicting flows of hot and cold energy in your body, which I found a bit strange. Later, I noticed that you drink herbal medicine every day, and those medicines are hot in nature. So, I speculated on how this coldness came about and guessed it might be related to your diet.”
Russell chuckled, “I was missing two pills for my sleep treatment.”
Zoey stuck out her tongue and felt a little embarrassed. “I took it to have my friend test it, I didn’t expect you to count the pills, huh?”
Russell said, “A special substance was coated on the bottle, and if it came into contact with human skin, the bottle would glow in the dark.”
Zoey blinked her eyes and said, “When you found out, did you think I was going to harm you?”

“No,” Russell said firmly, his gaze unwavering. “But Zoey, can you check my pulse and see if there are any other issues? Like my legs, is there any hope for them to recover?”
Zoey wanted to confess her identity as Dr. Z, but she realized that it might be a little too late since she hadn’t revealed her true self during the day.
The most important thing is that Russell also intended to conceal the fact that he was not disabled.
She let the words reach the tip of her tongue and then rolled them back, pretending to be ignorant.
Zoey shook her head.
Russell raised an eyebrow and said, “So, does that mean I had no hope of recovery?”
“No!” Zoey explained, “I mean I could only take a simple pulse, I couldn’t figure out the more complicated ones.”
“It’s okay, Zoey is still great, at least she found the mole in the house,” Russell’s lips curled slightly. “Today, Dr. Z went to the old house to diagnose my mother’s pulse. If I knew you had medical skills, I would’ve brought you along to meet Dr. Z.”
Zoey chuckled inwardly, ‘she meeting with Dr. Z?’
They couldn’t appear at the same time, okay?
Russell said, “Wait until next month when the miracle doctor. comes again, I will take you to the old house.”
Zoey: “…” There was really no need!

She raised the corners of her lips and said, “Okay!”
Russell asked, “When did you install the surveillance?”

“It was just the other day.” Zoey jumped off his lap and walked to the position of the dining room door, reaching out to touch the door frame..
Russell watched as she tiptoed to reach for something, revealing a slender and fair waist
His eyes darkened and his Adam’s apple bobbed up and down.
She removed a mini camera the size of a soybean.
Zoey turned back and naturally sat on his lap, opening her palm to show him, “This is a new type of camera, not easily detected, very useful.”
Russell pinched and examined it, ‘This was made by X Base, you have a good eye.”
Zoey nodded, “The technology products manufactured by X Base were ahead of the industry, although they were a bit more expensive, they were worth it. Moreover, X Base has done extensive research in artificial intelligence and has a very promising future. I am quite interested in the mastermind behind the base.”
“Quite interested?”
Zoey nodded, “This person is interesting. He wouldn’t sell to buyers he doesn’t like even if they offer ten billion, but he would sell to buyers he likes for one billion.”
Russell pinched Zoey’s chin and said, “Zoey, it was bad enough
that you screamed another man’s name in my bed, but now you’re sitting in my lap and saying you’re interested in other men? Huh?”
Zoey smiled, “Were you jealous?”
The two of them said in unison, “No.”
Russell chuckled softly, a gentle glimmer in his eyes. “You’re mischievous. From now on, you’re not allowed to mention any other man’s name in front of me, understand?”
Zoey raised her chin and wobbled on her two legs, “What if I mentioned it? Would you punish me?”
“Well, a heavy punishment.”
“Would you also throw me into Snake Forest?”
Russell reached out and played with the Buddhist beads on her wrist, “Of course not.”
Zoey was curious, “But what was Snake Forest like?”
“You wouldn’t want to know,” Russell twirled his prayer beads, “After breakfast, I had to go back to the Maddox Group for a meeting. In the evening, there’s a birthday banquet for my mother, and in the afternoon, I’ll pick you up and take you to the styling studio.”
“That’s so troublesome! I can go with you to the company, you have your meeting, and I will drew sketches in your office quietly.”
“Wouldn’t you feel bored?”

“Of course not, as long as I can be with you.”
Russell was melted by her laughter, and he softly hummed in agreement.
Zoey jumped down and said, “Then wait for me, breakfast will be ready soon!”
The two of them finished breakfast and went together to visit Carolyn, who lived on the second floor to the south.
At half past seven in the morning, Troy came to pick up Russell and go to the company.
When he saw that Zoey was also coming, he couldn’t help but be surprised. Then he raised the partition in the carriage, after all, he didn’t want to get a face–full of PDA.again.
After arriving at the company, Russell went to the meeting room, while Zoey sat on the carpet next to the sofa and spread a stack of drawing paper on the coffee table to draw.
Not long after, someone knocked on the door and entered.
Secretary Estrella Stephenson walked in carrying a bag. She placed various flavors of cakes, assorted cookies, and milk tea on the coffee table, almost covering half of it.
“This was prepared by Mr. Maddox, please enjoy.”
Zoey smiled and said, “Thank you. However…”
She put several boxes of cakes and cookies back into the bag, “These are for everyone to enjoy.”
Estrella’s heart skipped a beat and she nodded, “Thank you, Ms.

Harmon.”
She quickly grabbed the bag and left the office, clutching her own little heart.
A group of secretaries surrounded her, chattering away.
“How was it? Was the person beautiful?”
“Is it true that, as circulated on the internet, there was no manners?”
“Estrella, quickly spill it.”
Estrella sighed and placed the bag on the table. “These are treats from Ms. Harmon. She is super beautiful and very nice. Pay attention, gossipers, because she is the future president’s wife. Alright, everyone take one and get back to work.”
After Zoey drew three sketches, she took photos and sent them to Leanna.
Leanna gave a thumbs up and said, “It has to be you!”
Zoey smiled, stretched lazily, and opened the cake box on the table, starting to enjoy it heartily.
It was close to noon when Russell finally returned.
He saw Zoey lying on the sofa asleep, with a hint of cream on the corner of her lips.
He smiled and wiped away the smear of cream with his long fingers.
Suddenly, the girl’s tongue poked out and made a hook shape.

The wet touch’hit Russell’s skin, and he stood frozen in place.
“Zoey, do you know what you were doing?”
He gently stroked the corner of her mouth, when suddenly, the girl’s tongue flicked out again and licked the cream off Russell’s finger.
Guess she wants cake now.
He indulgently looked at her with a helpless smile, wanting to retract his hand. But the next second, Zoey suddenly tightly held onto his hand and unconsciously spoke in her sleep.
“Russell…”
“Boom“, and there goes Russell’s self–control.
