Haydn Soros fisted his hands that were resting by his sides. He wanted to believe her, but… So many people were claiming that she was guilty. Perhaps there could be some sliver of truth when it was just Sean Stewart accusing her. However, if her own family members were saying that she was guilty… Haydn Soros wanted to believe her, but he was unable to!He could not forgive her lies. He could not accept that his proud self had fallen in love with a heartless woman.However, Haydn Soros forgot about one thing. Did Jane even need his forgiveness? What right did he have to decide if he wanted to forgive her or not?Jane had never done anything to hurt him!Haydn Soros forgot about all these. He was just too furious beyond measure at this point. The pride and arrogance in his heart made him unable to accept that the first woman he devoted himself to turned out to be so shameless and despicable.“Jane.” Haydn Soros lifted his chin. “I, Haydn Soros, am the heir of Soros Inc. As long as I
Alora’s expression looked complicated. She hated these kinds of parties. She had wanted to find someplace quiet to hide. However, she did not expect to hear nor see such shocking secrets. She did not stand up for Jane because of her own selfish motives. Another reason was that she was hearing about Jane’s identity and past from Susan’s mouth, hence Alora hesitated and did not come out in time.Alora bent down and picked up the five hundred thousand cheque to hand it to Callen. “I know you, Call
Alora did not know if she was doing the right thing. However, before meeting Haydn Soros, she had never seen a smile on that idiot’s face. Now, the reason for Jane’s current suffering and torture was also because of that very man who put a smile on her face. If Haydn Soros had given Jane the first stab, then Jane’s parents and brother were the ones who stabbed her second.How could it not hurt?If she was not hurt and did not care, why would she ignore the box of cash and walk away? She need
The sound of cars sounded behind them. Uno, Dos, and the gang were taking six cars in total. They formed themselves in a row and stopped in front of the entrance of the party.The man strode over and stopped in front of Uno. Suddenly...Smack! A slap landed on his face.“Where is she?” the cold voice asked.Uno was confused. “Boss, who?”“Jane. I asked you to watch her. Where is she?” His cold gaze landed on Uno. When Uno heard Jane’s name, his heart sank. His face turned pale. “Boss, I…”
“Alora said you went missing,” replied the deep voice.His subconscious wanted to say, ‘I’m looking for you.’At this moment, Jane did not care. She also did not notice the tiny details in that sentence.He stood in front of her and looked at her with his head lowered for a long while.At least a quarter of an hour passed.Suddenly, his eyes looked determined. It looked like he had made an important decision.The man bent his waist suddenly and reached out to her.Smack! Jane smacked th
Jane hated the word ‘punished’.“Mr. Stewart is always punishing me. What if I don’t want to listen to you today? How are you going to punish me then, Mr. Stewart?” Had he not punished her enough already?‘If he wants to punish me, then he should just do it!’ the woman thought as she sat on the passenger seat. “If you want to punish me, Mr. Stewart, just do it.” She gave up. He should just punish her. She did not care anymore.On the driver’s seat, the man’s eyes glinted. Then, they darkened.
A voice said to him, ‘You should trust her. Don’t you know who she is?’Another voice said, ‘Her family doesn’t even trust her. Everyone’s saying that she’s guilty. She did all of those devious things! But you still want to devote yourself to a woman like that? Are you insane? Haydn, that woman does not deserve your feelings. Where is your pride? Where is your integrity? Where is your dignity? The arrogant Master Soros is in love with an evil murder who entrapped and killed her best friend? Wha
“We’re the same! We’re both proud and so arrogant.“We lived our entire lives in the spotlight, Sean Stewart! How could men as haughty as you and I stand having such a woman, a woman held in hatred and contempt by all, unacceptable even by our own standards, as the first woman we’ve ever truly fallen for?!“You love Jane Dunn, Stewart, don’t deny it. You know who you are. If you haven’t fallen for her, you would usually be colder than the Arctic. Would you run here to me in the middle of the n
"Your grandfather loved your grandmother like a man possessed."By the time I finished hearing out my grandparents' story, I fell silent. I no longer blamed my grandfather for not knowing his heart, and I no longer blamed Grandma for being uncertain. It was just as Grandma Alora said. It was only because one of the two of them stopped obsessing and took a step back that they ended up living happily ever after. I could not help but wonder. What if Grandma simply refused to turn back at the e
Even then, I found it unbelievable. I ran to my dad's room and immediately asked, "Is Grandpa a pervert? I saw him hugging Grandma's foot just now. Does he have a foot fetish?""Your grandfather is warming your grandmother's feet. Your grandmother's body isn't in its best shape, and her hands and feet are always ice-cold. Your grandfather can't bear to see her like that. Just pretend you didn't see anything, and never mention it to him.""But why?""Because your grandfather will make you writ
My name was Luka Stewart. It was a weird name, right? Like ‘look! A stew.’My grandfather gave me my name. All my many years of experience as a kid told me that my grandfather was not a good guy.All else aside, just look at the name he gave me. He had a perfectly nice name himself, but he had to give me such a weird one.However, every time I protested about it to him, he always said that it was my dad's fault. If Dad had been a girl, that would have been his name instead. See, Grandpa was
On the twentieth day after the surgeryHe saw the person he had his heart set on.“Elior said you were at your wedding on the day I woke up.” He fell quiet again after his initial excitement. It felt as though there was a thorn in his heart. He wanted to pull the thorn out, but it hurt just to touch it.“Is Michael Luther… good to you?”“Yeah, pretty much.”There was pain in his eyes and he hurriedly lowered them, putting on a gracious act.“Congratulations. From now on, you’ll finally be
“Not too long ago, I woke up one morning and realized that I was trapped behind bars again. He had installed metal grilles over all the windows in the room.“In my eyes, those bars were no different from the ones in prison six years ago.“He tried everything to imprison me. He only finally let go when he’s sick and dying.“He said something about getting tired of this game and getting bored of me. I believed him.“He’s dying, so he lets go.“Is that supposed to show how generous and loving
“See? Master White agrees. Move aside and don’t stop me, the boss is in a lot of danger right now!” Dos’ expression was vicious. “I need to stop…”Halfway through his sentence, the three people outside heard some mortifying noises coming from inside the room.They were all experienced in the ways of life, so no matter how slow they might be, they still understood what those noises meant.Dos’ face instantly turned completely red.“Go on, kick the door down. Your boss is in danger,” Alora tea
After the second apple, there was the third... By the time he reached the fifth, he looked at the apple in his hand with a troubled expression. No matter how much he liked fruit, he still could not eat so many at once. Besides, he never liked apples to begin with.“Eat some more, or you won’t have the strength,” she said calmly. He was completely stumped. The strength? The strength for what?The wheels in his brain were still turning as he tried to process her words when the woman by his bed
At the hospital, the ward door opened without a sound. This time, Dos did not report the arrival in advance.When Elior arrived in a hurry, he immediately saw that woman.Before he said anything, Alora pulled him back out into the corridor. The door opened and closed again.The man on the bed lay on his side, fast asleep.No one knew what he was dreaming about, but the deep frown on his face showed that he did not have pleasant dreams.His hand rested on the covers, his wedding ring still a
"Don't worry, this time Sean Stewart won't disturb you again. He never will anymore. "Go and do what you do best, Jane Dunn. Run away!"With those words, Alora turned and left.She did not know what she was mad about. Perhaps she was not mad at all, just a little sorry about the whole state of affairs.It was almost as though she was the one who was not getting her happy ending. In her eyes, one of them had done wrong in the past and was now filled with regret, determined to turn over a n
