After all, of all the sons and daughters of the many branches of the Winters family, he, Jim, wasn't the most stable or the one with the most business sense, and logically, Richard shouldn't have trusted him so much.

But over the years, Richard has favored him so much that even his daughter has been handpicked as the heir apparent.

Unfortunately, Sophie has really disappointed Richard with the things she's been doing lately, so the inheritance is up in the air again.

Evelyn, of course, didn't want to let go of this great opportunity; when she married into the Winters family, Richard hadn't been very nice to her because of what happened with the Dawn family until the last few years, when he started to ease up.

Jim's other side family members were sometimes even more sarcastic in their words, and she had long held a grudge in her heart.

Now that her own husband was being appreciated, and things with her daughter couldn't be put off, Sophie needed to be allowed to regain Richard's trust.

    Molly walked a long way before taking a deep drag on her cigarette and skillfully exhaling a ring of smoke.You can't exhale such a perfect smoke ring unless you've been smoking for more than five years.Not far from her, the man was still waiting, still with the wolf at his side."You came at a good time."Her voice was a bit sarcastic as she slowly finished her cigarette and threw it away, the butt flying into a trash can not far away.The man looked behind her, "Thinking about it?"Molly leaned over and tapped the wolf's head, "Think about it."The man came closer, saw her face on the verge of tears, and grunted coldly, "What's so good about feelings, that man doesn't look very good either, at least as bad as the owner.""Got a cigarette?" Molly looked up and held out her hand.Her hands were full of calluses, much rougher than the man's.The man took out his cigarettes, placed them on her lips himself, and lit them for her.Molly took a drag and looked at the spot not far from whe

    "I remember making it very clear at the time that it was an accident, and I credited you with the money, so don't bother me, you know, I don't like women bothering me."He was notorious for getting out of bed and going two for two, and it was just this girl who kept pestering him like a piece of cowhide.Serena stood silently, saying nothing.The girl was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a pair of almond eyes that were wide open and now filled with tears."But you said you liked me very much."Jordan smiled, and the smile was genuine, "You look cute, of course I like that, I also like flirtatious, coquettish, shy, in short, beautiful women, I like them all, it's just that my tastes have changed now, see? And I never eat back".The girl probably didn't expect him to say it so clearly, and her tears flowed even harder, "You bastard! Big scumbag!!!"Jordan frowned, "Isn't it always about what you want? How come he's the scum of the earth?And he gave her ten million dollars plu

    Serena leaned around the corner for a long time, almost looking through Bard's body, and couldn't tell that this was a woman beater of a man.She was almost instantly certain that there must be something bitter about what had happened.She was about to walk over when she saw another woman come out of the room, full of vitriol."Why are you still standing here? What's the use of reading so many books! In the end, it is not mixed to this place, these years in my family to eat our, drink our, the result is to do a thing like procrastination! This afternoon, wash the pile of clothes, and sweep the floor of the house, and you also help to deal with things in the factory, do not really think of yourself as a member of this family!"Bard's face was full of stoicism, and his eyebrows were furiously raised before he finally spoke."Sister-in-law, I borrowed the money to buy this house for my brother in the first place, and it's no crime for me to live here."The woman's face flamed with anger,

    That's why people from the outside world say that the residents of Castle Rock Lane lived in coffins a long time ago; after all, only coffins are so cramped.Serena had just taken a step when a huge wave of unease suddenly swept through her body, and when she looked up, she realized that a blackened gun was pointed at her not far away.The man's eyes were full of bloodlust and fierceness, and she was almost certain that she was really going to die.Her body couldn't move at all under the immense tension, as if she had been nailed to the ground.The more anxious you are, the less you can move."Bang!"She heard the sound of a bullet going off and almost unconsciously closed her eyes.But a man's chest burst open, shielding her tightly underneath, and rolled around with her in his arms.Serena's nostrils were filled with blood, thick and pungent.She tilted her head to see Jordan's pale face."I suddenly regret it."Only he knows what he regrets.Serena just thinks he's lost a lot of bl

    Serena took ten thousand dollars straight out of her bag and put it in front of the woman, "I'm Uncle Bard's neighbor and I have something for him, just for one afternoon."Seeing the money, the woman took it without hesitation and looked at Bard sarcastically, "I really didn't think that you had such a rich neighbor, Bard, it seems that you were really confused at first, but it's a pity that you were tricked by a woman and that your books were read to a dog!"Bard's face was flushed and he didn't make a sound, his eyebrows filled with concealment.Serena hurriedly took the man with her and didn't stay behind.Bard was a man and recognized the limousine parked outside at a glance, the whole person suddenly became formal, "Why are you looking for me?""Uncle Bard, don't be nervous, I'm just curious about what happened back then, let's find a restaurant and talk slowly."Bard pursed his lips and got into the car, not daring to move at all, stirring his palms awkwardly.He had once been

    But Serena had risen, her face firm, "Uncle Bard, a little self-respect is nothing when it comes to food and clothing, take it, you live in this world, and dying to save face is a sin."Bard's face flushed and she gritted her teeth, putting the money in her pocket, "Thank you."Serena left quickly, what was Matthew doing calling her? It was rare that the man called her."I'll be right back, let's discuss everything in person."She said, sensing that the man wasn't very happy.It was an hour later when they returned to Pines Ridge, and Matthew, waiting on the couch, had almost lost his patience.His eyes swept over Serena's body, his brow furrowed and his lips curled into a knife when he noticed her two empty palms.Serena shivered at the sight of him and tried to remember if she'd done anything wrong today.But she had been very good today and hadn't done anything to offend him."What's wrong with you?"Matthew's frown lightened a bit at the sound of "husband," but it was clear that h

    He monkeyed around and started fumbling with the buttons of Leona's dress.Leona frowned and held his hand, she wasn't interested in being right here."Hayden, go back and talk."Yet the man's voice came in her ear, inexplicably aggravated, "Go back?Going back would take another half hour."Leona couldn't hold back her laughter any longer and let out a "pfft".Seeing her in a good mood made Hayden bold, easing his seat down and catching her lips in a kiss.It was only when dealing with her that Hayden would act so much like a brat.Leona couldn't argue with him and could only sigh.It was all over, exactly twelve o'clock.Hayden was a little unfulfilled, but knew that he couldn't go on.Leona was too tired to say anything and just leaned back in the seat, half-closing her eyes.Hayden drove the car home, and when he got outside the apartment, instead of waking her up, he bent over and picked her up, heading upstairs.Leona did seem to have it a lot easier since the contract was drawn

    Hearing Matthew say that made Serena feel slightly better.She actually had no intention of interfering with her daughter's choice, but as a mother, where was the reason not to love her daughter.She and Matthew had only been in the hospital room for half an hour before she was blown away by Nina, who said she didn't want to be force-fed dog food to eat on top of her allergies.Serena felt innocent, and before she left Matthew gently chided someone in the bed, "Next time be polite to your sister-in-law."Nina was so angry that she called Tara directly to complain, and there was always a gentle voice over there, instructing her not to get too emotional.Nina stayed here for a day, the door of the hospital room was quietly opened, and the tightly wrapped man revealed a pair of eyes, even alertly pulling the curtains closed.The lewd figure, needless to say, must be Rodney.Sure enough, Rodney took off his hat and looked at her red and swollen face painfully, "Did you check the allergens

She's just lucky."Serena had just passed by the ward door when she heard this.She paused in her steps and looked to Mat

    Hayden pressed the answer button and only heard a few words from there before he froze in place.Otis had been knocked right into the resuscitation room by that bottle, saying that a splinter had lodged in his scalp and he needed surgery ASAP.His head buzzed with a few vague responses and he hung up.He pulled Leona into the car, "Leona , I'll take you back first."Leona sat in the passenger seat, quietly looking out and not talking to him.After arriving at the apartment, Hayden sent her into the door, as he turned around , Leona suddenly pulled his hand, "Hayden, remember what I told you before, if this friendship comes to a point where you should let go, don't hesitate."Hayden took a step forward, his body frozen in place.He turned and hugged her, "I actually believed you all along and didn't doubt the truth in your words, so it's hard for me because in that moment, I lost my best friend."Parting comes so suddenly in the adult world.Yes, while standing in the box, he took Leon

    It was the first time Leona had ever been so angry, angry at the man's behavior, angry that he was Hayden's friend.She still had half the bottle cupped in her hand and wanted to just poke the glass slag into him, but she couldn't be so impulsive.She gave Otis, who was still struggling, a cold look and clasped her hands slightly as she held the door to the compartment open and waited for the police to arrive.The police came quickly, and following them was Hayden.Hayden hadn't expected this to be the case in the box, and he froze for a moment, before asking, "Leona, what's wrong?"Leona was just about to speak when Otis, who had been bored for a long time, jumped the gun, "Sister Leona, you don't have to humiliate us in this way if you don't like Delia and I. I'll pay Hayden back the five million dollars, I didn't mean to drag him down."Leona had grown up in the Harrington household, and her friends had all sat upright, and none of them had ever been so calmly upside down as Otis.

    When a man eats, his movements are slow and unhurried, it's really eye-pleasing to look at.Tim, with this kind of big personality, felt a little embarrassed."Uncle, this is your first time in Hustleburg, right, there are other places in Hustleburg that are very pretty."As soon as he finished his words, an assistant-looking person ran not far away and attached himself to the man's ear and said something.The man got up and straightened his sleeve, "Thanks for the hospitality, if we meet again, I'll buy you guys."Leona and Godfery hadn't spoken since the beginning, but he knew exactly how many people were around.Tim stood up in a hurry and held one of his hands, "Let me help you over."For his attentiveness, the assistants standing by the side all laughed, "Although Mr. can't see with his eyes, his heart is penetrating, he's been here before around here, and he remembers all the roads."Tim embarrassedly put down his hand and touched his head, "This way, then uncle goodbye."Watchi

    This was probably the first time Leona had offered to say yes to taking him out, and Hayden had been waiting for this opportunity for far too long.His heart instantly caught fire and he nodded solemnly.He rushed off to the place he'd agreed to go with Otis, a park that used to be a favorite haunt of the two in high school.Back then the park still had a fountain and was surrounded by young couples out on dates from school.He had just gotten there when he saw Otis sitting on the bench they used to sit on with a case of beer at his feet.Hayden walked over and sat down beside him, "What brings you here all of a sudden?"Otis pointed to his feet and smiled faintly, "You should have gone to a lot of trouble to fish me out this time, I don't know how to thank you.""Otis, you're my friend.""Hayden, there's a lot I want to say to you."Otis lowered his eyes and opened a can of beer, "Sit down."Hayden sat down beside him and Otis started with some funny stuff that happened in high schoo

    Hayden didn't know how to respond to his best friend's questioning.They went straight to the hospital and when the doctor examined them, he talked about what happened to Delia in the past few days.Otis held Delia's hand and started crying while Delia's eyes kept resting on Hayden's.Hayden's brain hurt, both of the people here were his best friends at one time, but this time it seemed like he was on the verge of losing them.Back in high school, he and Otis used to sit on the playground from time to time drinking beer and coke and talking about their dreams at that age, and Otis would always tease him with Leona.Neither had realized that the adult world would be filled with so much hopelessness, despair.Otis cried for a while and fed Delia water.Delia had no strength in her body and could only take a few slow sips right from his hand.Otis' eyes instantly turned red, when had he ever seen Delia like this.Delia had always followed them around like a tomboy, we all played soccer t
