When she was younger, her older brother had told her that she could be stubborn when she was sick.Back then, she was especially attached to Sean Stewart. In fact, even she knew how much Sean was sick of her.However, when she fell sick once, she insisted on taking a nap with him. She knew that he thought she was a pain, but she still stuck to him, boldly using her brother’s words to proclaim, I’m sick, and sick people have the right to be stubborn. If you don’t take this nap with me, I won’t
A doctor walked out of the emergency room. “Are you her family?”Susie hesitated. “I’m her colleague. Is she okay?”The doctor in white did not look very optimistic. “Call her family.”Susie’s face instantly paled. “Doctor, is it really serious?” Her heart was pounding. If Jane died… Then did that mean Susie was a murderer?No, no, she was not, it was not her fault. Jane fell over on her own. S-She was just saving Jane’s life by bringing her to the hospital.If anyone found out that Jane’s
Alora went around the center for a bit and frowned. That was strange… Why could she not find Jane anywhere?“Hey, stay there.” Coincidentally, Alora bumped into the PR department manager, who was waiting at the elevator, and called out to her. “Have you seen Jane Dunn?”The PR department manager turned around to see who was asking. When she saw that it was Alora, she paused and said, “Jane Dunn took the day off. Apparently she’s a little tired so she wants to rest.” After some hesitation, the
Susie raised her head to look at Sherry carefully. She did not reply to Sherry, asking instead, “Do you like Mr. Soros, Sherry?”Sherry hurriedly waved her hand, saying, “Oh no, not me. It’s a ton of other people who like Mr. Soros.”The sharpness in Susie’s gaze faded away, and she advised Sherry straight-facedly, “Thank goodness you don’t like him, Sherry. I mean, considering what kind of a guy he is, I’m sure he has really high tastes. Any girl who manages to date Mr. Soros must be a really
Right now, Jane looked utterly revolting and inhuman to her.Jane raised her head slowly and looked at Susie. She took her time speaking, her voice grating and hoarse and painful on the ears. She said, “I want an apology.”Susie’s eyes widened. She looked at Jane in disbelief, saying, “You want an apology?” She practically shrieked at Jane, “You want me to apologize to you?”She looked at Jane, unable to believe her ears, as though apologizing to Jane was the most absurd thing she had ever he
It was a simple matter, so simple that Jane just had to stay spineless. She just had to bend over and agree to every one of Susie’s unreasonable and even humiliating requests.However, in the deepest corners of her heart, she had gotten greedy— She wanted the “respect” she had lost so long ago. She did not need to be admired like she used to be; she just needed the most basic respect she should have as the most average of people, as a “person”.However, it clearly was not going to go her way.
“Everyone has their own belief. It could be a person or a concept.” Her hoarse voice held a deeply-suppressed pain as Jane tried to say as calmly as possible, her words slow, “Those who fight so hard for the sake of that belief, for that person or that concept, those who work their butts off to achieve that dream should, at the very least, not be taunted.”Susie blinked, looking at Jane in front of her from head to toe… How could a useless and brainless woman who did not even graduate from high
The cab drove to East Emperor, and Jane stepped out of it, standing in front of the doors to East Emperor International. The place was under renovation, but it was still extravagant in a subtle way.She was in no hurry to go in. Instead, she lifted her hand and straightened out her clothes meticulously, tidying herself up. She then tore off the bandage on her forehead and used her bangs to cover the wound with three or four stitches.Once everything was done, she straightened her back. Her spi
