Prisley knew Heather was insane. It seemed her only option was to die by his side. She felt frustrated but had no other choice. So, she decided to become a living dead.From then on, Prisley stopped talking. When the maids brought food, she took a few bites and then had them take it away. After eating, she locked herself in the room and slept. She knew Heather had installed cameras in her room, so even if she couldn't sleep, she still lay there with her eyes closed.The long hours of work and constant fear had taken a toll on her mental state. With enough sleep, her mind seemed to become more active."Emma, how was her appetite today?" Heather routinely asked the maid."Miss Anderson ate very little, just like yesterday." Emma repliedHeather sighed deeply."Sir... there's something I think I should tell you," Emma knew Heather's temper well."Go ahead.""The food Miss Anderson eats each day is only half of the healthy amount. If this continues...""I know." Heather felt a wave of irr
With a loud splash, Prisley fell into the swimming pool, sending up a tall spray of water.She floundered in the water, panicking, unable to find her swimming rhythm. She choked on water as she struggled to stay afloat.After being cooped up indoors for so long, her limbs were weak. She barely managed to swim. Prisley splashed her way to the edge of the pool.Heather's eyes were burning with anxiety. He wanted to rush over to help Prislye, but Steve held him back, pressing him against the car."Let her go. Or you'll only make her hate you more."Heather struggled. "No! I can't watch her like this. Why can't I save her?""She can do it. Trust her," Steve said calmly."Let time heal everything. If she really cares about you, she'll come back to you.""If she doesn't, you can't force it."Heather struggled for a few seconds, watching Prisley flounder in the water.He picked up the security radio and told the guards, "Don't stop her. Let her go wherever she wants." His voice was heavy and
"Prisley! Is that you?" Mark exclaimed.Prisley brushed her messy hair back, her smile wide. She hadn't felt this happy in a long time.Mark rushed forward and hugged her tightly. "Where did you go? I heard about Kenzell. I regret leaving you there."Mark felt a bittersweet pain of having found something he had lost."I looked everywhere for you. Where have you been? Please, don't leave again." Mark's voice was choked. His eyes felt hot.Prisley looked more worn out than before, frail and sickly. Mark glanced at her and hugged her again.Prisley's long-suppressed emotions were suddenly stirred up. "I'm not leaving. I'm staying right here."Her eyes were wet. She didn't want to cry but felt a deep sense of safety with Mark.Mark called his assistant. "Cancel the meeting.""But boss, I've confirmed it just now.""Do I need to teach you how to do it? I said cancel it!" Mark snapped, then turned back to Prisley with a gentle look."I'm so glad you came. What can I do for you?" he asked."
The waitress walked into the restroom, took off her uniform, and hid her phone in her bra. After calming her breath, she pushed the door open and stepped out.It was Jennifer.She looked around, ensuring no one saw her, then left amidst the nightclub's noise.After running a long distance, Jennifer sent the video out and called Prisley.Mark had already prepared a new phone for Prisley, placing it by her bed. Jennifer's call woke her up."Jennifer? It's so late. Sorry, I can't go out with you tonight," Prisley mumbled groggily. Fortunately, her fatigue had greatly lessened."Prisley, aren't you with your boss? I just went to the nightclub, and guess who I saw?"Prisley was still not fully awake. "Another handsome guy? Jennifer, you always...""Your boss! He and another man had four scantily dressed Bunnies in the VIP room, hot and explicit."Prisley sat up abruptly from the bed, instantly wide awake. But she didn't know how to react."Prisley, are you there?" Jennifer asked."What did
"Mark, can I work at your company?" Prisley asked.“Of course you can!” Mark was overjoyed. He had dreamed of this day for a long time. The day when Prisley would work with him.There was always a saying in the industry that Heather Rynn had a very capable female assistant who handled everything for him.When they were in Tulsa, Mark had seen her competence firsthand. She managed to take down an entire corruption ring by herself and uncovered David's scheme against Heather.Mark hugged Prisley tightly like a treasure: ""I'm looking forward to working with you, but not now, Prisley. Can you rest a few more days? Let the doctor assess your condition first."Prisley nodded obediently.Mark gently stroked her long hair, "You've really blown me away. I never imagined I'd actually get you to come work at the company."Prisley hadn't felt this kind of peace for a long time. She nestled into Mark's embrace, greedily feeling his warmth and tenderness.She had also asked herself, should she just
After a thorough evaluation, the doctor concluded that Prisley's status was good, and she was fit to work without any restrictions, as long as she took her nutritional supplements on time."Mark, did you hear that? I told you I was fine," Prisley said happily, looking at Mark."Let me think, how much should I pay you as salary…" Mark pretended to ponder."With such a capable assistant… I should give you half of my shares, right?"Prisley punched him playfully. "Can I sue my boss for harassing his employee?"They both laughed.Mark was delighted to see Prisley back to her cheerful and optimistic self. He had been worried about her long period of depression and PTSD after the bloody incident.Prisley entered the Voda Pharm office for the first time. Although the office area was smaller than Heather's Warner Group, the employees were busy and energetic, creating a positive atmosphere."Mark, do you come to the office often now?""Of course, I'm here every day, sometimes even working over
Heather sat in the office, staring blankly at his computer.Steve was half-lying on the sofa, playing with his phone. He burst into laughter after sharing a joke with a friend.Heather turned his head and looked at Steve like he was an idiot."Come on, man, you don't need to be down for so long. It's just an assistant leaving, and you haven't been happy for a long time.""Let's go to the nightclub again tonight," Steve said."No way. If you want to have fun, do it yourself," Heather replied."Don't torture yourself like this. It's just a woman. There are beautiful women everywhere”"Remember the hot girls in the nightclub last time? You didn't even react at all. I wonder if there's something wrong with your dick." Steve teased."Shut up! You're the one with the problem! I just don't like those tasteless women. There's no point in explaining this to you. You wouldn't understand.""Women are all the same. Some have bigger tits, some have bigger asses, some are wilder in bed." Heather s
Prisley looked at the luxurious dress and jewelry in shock. "Mark, I can't. I already owe you so much.""Asking you to attend the party for the company is something I owe you. As your boss, I'd like to ask my assistant to find some time for a bit of overtime, okay?" He always had that relaxed and charming smile on his face.Prisley couldn't resist his damn charm. She smiled back."Come on, Mark. Don't look at me like that. I'll fall for you." Prisley picked up a dress. "Do you like this one? Or this one?""Any of them will do. I'll like it as long as it's on you.""And besides, what's wrong with loving me? I'm so positive, ambitious, handsome, and charming."Mark did have a magical charm. His words were flirty but not vulgar. His expression and tone were always warm and joyful, never making anyone uncomfortable.Mark picked out an elaborate necklace from a row of jewelry boxes. "Here, let me put this on for you."He moved behind Prisley, placed the necklace around her neck, and claspe
