Well, to tell the truth, he did not really need to look for it. The headlines were obvious enough!He did not need to read the articles from start to finish either. Just by looking at the headlines, Ray instantly understood why that Stewart seemed so pissed first thing in the morning.Ray resisted the urge to roll his eyes… That Stewart would only ever be that anxious when it came to that woman. See, he was wondering why Stewart actually asked him so politely to “do me another favor” today.F
Dunn’s ResidenceJoseph Dunn pointed a finger at Mrs. Dunn’s nose, raging, “That’s the daughter you raised! What a wonderful filial daughter!”He was furious. He did not want to just give up Dunn Group, but if he did not agree to Jane’s request, then Dunn Group would really fall apart.He knew very well that as long as Dunn Group still stood, he would still be a wealthy man with a house, cars, and servants. Without Dunn Group, he was nothing.No matter how reluctant he was, Joseph Dunn just
The Dunns were in complete disarray!Their old butler quietly backed away and walked to the landline, giving Jane a call. “Young miss, please come home for a visit. The master, he hit the madam.“She’s crying right now.”On the other end, Jane said coolly, “Isn’t Mr. Dunn there? Ask him to comfort here.”“The master left. The madam tried to stop him, but she fell when she chased him and she’s crying now. Miss, please come back for a visit.”On the other end, Jane held the phone to her ear,
Jane’s whole body was stiff. That man’s warmth reached her clearly across two layers of cloth.She did not dare to move. She was scared.At least, right here and now, she could not accept something like this.They said that time healed all wounds, but often, all time did was distill some things into a pain carved into one’s bones.The palm on her shoulder was terrifyingly scalding. It was not just his hand, but his chest and every other part of his body. It was all frighteningly hot.The wo
All of a sudden!Jane widened her eyes in horror. She stopped screaming or shouting, her body shaking like a leaf, her throat feeling as though it was stuffed with cotton.There was an abrupt feeling of cold on her back. He had pulled her nightdress aside.“Aaah!” She screamed with everything she had, the sound piercing and terrible. “Sean Stewart! I hate you!”The man’s long and narrow eyes flooded over with pain. It was as though she had taken a blunt knife to his heart!He pinned the wom
Her grating voice was pleading with him, sounding utterly humiliated.Sean paused, his body turning taut. “What nonsense are you spouting?!”He berated her.The woman pinned under him turned her head around, her eyes looking hurt and headstrong. “Sean Stewart, your hobby has always been to humiliate me, no?” Her eyes filled with tears. “You want me to beg like a dog? I’ll do as you wish.”Was that not what he wanted?“No.” The man’s voice was hoarse, his eyes shining with a sharp pain. He l
He could not care less about it at all. The woman continued to grab whatever she could get her hands on, throwing all of it at him in a bout of insanity. Pillows, phones, the calendar, pens… She threw everything she could at him. He was not afraid of any of those, but suddenly he saw a fruit knife on the dressing table. In an instant, his heart turned to panic.“I’ll leave! I’ll leave right now. Sweetheart, calm down and tomorrow… tomorrow we can talk about this again.” He was really worried th
Sean did not want to ask for help, but his heart was already flustered.Love really was not something you could earn by force.He sat on the edge of Jane’s bed. The calming aromatherapy was still wafting around the guestroom as he looked at the woman on the bed. There was no way for him to voice the exasperation in his eyes.He gave Elior a call. It was already late in the night, but Elior drowsily picked up anyway, listening carefully to everything Sean told him about his relationship with Jane.Sean’s deep voice sounded so lonely in the quiet of the night and the silence of the room.Elior heard him out and was silent for a moment.He did not really understand love either.However, he definitely understood Sean, his best friend.When he heard Sean explain what had happened that night, Elior could clearly sense that Sean was intentionally hiding something from him.Even so, he could still feel the man’s pain and bitterness just by hearing his deep voice over the phone.“All
