He turned and headed back to the hospital room.Sophia was already receiving an IV. After the trauma of being kidnapped last night, her mental state was already fragile. Today's events had only worsened it, and fainting was a mild reaction."Mr. Tudor," Brian called from the doorway.Lucas stood by the bedside and looked over at him, his eyes filled with a sharp, icy coldness that bore into Brian.Brian felt a chill spread from his feet to his entire body, reaching the depths of his soul.Lucas walked out, closed the door behind him, and went into the stairwell.Brian followed silently.Once inside the stairwell, Brian spoke. "I saw Miss Young get into Mr. Russell's car. Mr. Tudor, Miss Young is definitely not innocent. Mr. Russell is the nephew of that person, and Miss Young has been getting close to him recently. With Miss Winter's kidnapping, it must be...""Bang!"Before he could finish, Lucas' fist landed squarely on his face.Brian staggered back several steps but didn't dare fig

Aaron replied, "It's from an anonymous overseas account."After a pause, he added, "It's pretty obvious who's behind this. They won't stop until you're dead."Lucas placed the tablet aside and suddenly said, "Have someone keep an eye on Aveline."Aaron frowned. "After everything that's happened, you're still protecting her?"Lucas looked at him with a deep gaze. "Don't you understand why she's in this situation?"Aaron moved his lips but finally sighed, "Alright, but I'm not letting go of the poisoning incident. I still suspect she's working for them."Lucas said nothing. Was she really?Memories of the past year flooded his mind. If she were truly involved, she had numerous opportunities to harm him. But she hadn't.Her eyes were so clear, her smile so pure. He didn't want to believe it, yet past events made him wary of trusting too easily.Seeing Lucas' troubled expression, Aaron pondered for a moment before asking, "Do you really plan to marry Sophia?"Lucas replied, "I'm still mar

Gwen thought she needed to teach that arrogant woman a lesson so she would understand her place."Hello?" Desmond answered the call.Gwen exaggerated Aveline's situation and then tactfully said, "Mr. Blake, Aveline might have changed after securing the collaboration with Brighton Enterprises. I'm at a loss, so I came to you for help. What should I do?"Desmond asked, "Did she request leave?"Gwen replied, "Yes, she did."Desmond said, "Then what's the problem?"Huh?Gwen was stunned. Was that it? No reprimand? No talk of dismissing Aveline?What was going on?Gwen was momentarily unsure and said, "Mr. Blake, this..."Desmond replied, "She hasn’t made any big mistakes or caused the company any harm. There must be a reason she took leave. If you can't manage this, why are you in this role?"Startled, Gwen quickly said, "I understand, Mr. Blake. I'll handle it. Sorry for bothering you!"After saying that, she hurriedly hung up the phone!She initially thought Aveline had fallen out of fav

Aveline smiled slightly at him. "It's nothing. I just wanted to see if you needed to go to the hospital."Russell replied, "No need."Aveline picked up her fork again. "Then let's eat first."She started eating, although she didn't have much of an appetite. There were still many things she needed to deal with.Russell's charming eyes looked deeply at her, but he didn't say much more.After the meal, Aveline went to pay the bill, only to be told it had already been paid.She paused and looked at Russell. "Russ, didn't we agree that I would treat you?"Russell lazily said, "When you're out with me, there's no way I'd let you pay."Aveline blinked. "So, can I invite you to meals often in the future?"Russell's mouth twitched slightly. "Sure."Aveline smiled, then sat back down.Russell waved his phone at her. "The video has been sent to your email."Aveline immediately opened it, and when she saw the girl who bumped into her tampering with the food, her expression turned serious.Someone

Seeing her, Sharon's face immediately showed fury, and she charged over, raising her hand to slap Aveline's face."You wretch! How dare you arrange for someone to kidnap Sophia? How could you be so cruel?" Sharon exclaimed.Aveline widened her eyes, and she quickly grabbed Sharon's hand, then forcefully pushed her away. "Are you crazy? Do you always lash out when you see someone? Do you need to get your brain checked?""Wretch!"Sharon stumbled from the push, but she steadied herself and glared at Aveline, wishing she could tear her apart."It's you who refuses to divorce Lucas, you are the mistress, yet cling to the position as his wife. How shameless can you be?"Aveline, already furious with Lucas, now found Sharon directly in her line of fire.She coldly said, "My marriage with Lucas is protected by law. The law will decide who the real mistress is. If you keep troubling me over this, I'm not afraid to confront you. Knowing me, you should be aware that I have nothing, and thus noth

Aveline's brow furrowed. What was he doing? Blocking her with bodyguards, not answering her calls, and now stepping into the elevator? Her expression froze, and she was about to leave."What are you doing?" Lucas' cold voice sounded.Aveline replied, "I don't want to be in the same space as a trash can."Lucas' brow furrowed, and a dangerous vibe filled the cramped elevator. He pressed the close button, and the doors shut quickly, leaving no time for Aveline to exit.She glanced at him with a frown and stood in the corner, radiating detachment and coldness.Before, he refused to see her. Now, she didn't want to be near him. What bad luck.Lucas noticed her expression, his eyes dark and unreadable. He asked coolly, "Where's the evidence?"Aveline replied, "I sent it to you."Lucas said, "My phone's off."Aveline smirked. "Can't you turn it on?"Lucas looked at her intently and suddenly asked, "If I gave you a knife now, would you stab me?"The coldness in her eyes was obvious, which

Aveline took a deep breath. It was a good opportunity to ask about the recording.“Okay.”Yvonne asked, “Where are you now? I’ll come to pick you up.”Aveline gave her location, and about 15 minutes later, a car slowly approached. The window rolled down, revealing Yvonne's well-maintained face.“Hello, Madam Yvonne.” Aveline smiled politely.Yvonne said, “Get in.”Aveline opened the door and got into the car.Yvonne asked directly, “Why don’t you look well? Haven’t you been resting?”Aveline replied, “The issue with Lucas being poisoned has been weighing on me. I haven’t been sleeping well.”Yvonne said, “Honestly, I can’t believe you would do such a thing, but since you cooked the food, it’s natural for people to suspect. Didn’t you call the police? I’m sure they’ll find evidence to prove your innocence sooner or later.”“Yes.” Aveline nodded, saying no more.At the beauty salon, they went straight to a private room and lay down on the beds as the therapist instructed.Yvonne asked, “

Yvonne left the beauty salon.Aveline hadn’t been sleeping well lately. She lay on the bed, and as the therapist started massaging her, she soon fell asleep.When she woke up again, it was already dark outside. Aveline left the salon and took out her phone to call a taxi.She hadn’t noticed earlier, but the salon was on the outskirts of the city, making it difficult to find a ride. After waiting for a while by the roadside, she finally saw a taxi approaching slowly.“Where to?” the driver asked once she got in.Aveline replied, “Maple Garden.”She then checked her phone for messages and saw one from Selena complaining about Aaron. The last message caught her attention.Selena asked, “Do you have an extra WhatsApp account?”Aveline replied, “What do you need it for?”Selena texted, “This jerk is giving me such a hard time. I need to get back at him. I’ve found a way. Just wait and see!”Aveline replied, “Don’t go too far. If you push him too much, you’ll end up suffering.”Selena texted

It was Jolie’s first time visiting Cooper Enterprises, and she couldn’t help but feel a sense of curiosity about the place.No, to be precise, it was her first time stepping into any corporate office. The Quin family also had company, but she had never visited, nor had Daisy or Terence ever asked her to.The private elevator for the CEO was stunningly opulent, its polished surface gleaming like a mirror, perfectly reflecting their images. Jolie’s heart began to race with an inexplicable excitement.The assistant glanced at her and said with a warm smile, "Miss Quin, there’s no need to be nervous. Mr. Cooper will definitely be delighted to see you."Jolie nodded and replied, "I’m not nervous."The elevator moved swiftly, and as they neared the executive office, Jolie adjusted her cap and mask, pulling them snugly to hide her face as much as possible.Meanwhile, near the adjacent employee elevator, Rosalie was holding a stack of files, ready to head downstairs.She froze the moment she s

"I’ll wait for you to come back," Jolie said softly before hanging up the call. The phone let out a soft beep, and the beautiful girl on the screen disappeared. Gavin frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flickering across his face. She ended the call without letting him say anything. But as he replayed her soft words about waiting for him, the irritation quickly faded. When his assistant walked in, the first thing he noticed was Gavin staring at his phone, an unreadable smile tugging at the corner of his lips. The assistant froze, momentarily feeling as though he’d seen a ghost. Blinking hard, he looked again. Phew! It must have been his imagination. Gavin still wore his usual cold and impassive expression. "Mr. Cooper, these are the proposals submitted by the planning department," the assistant said as he placed the documents on Gavin’s desk. "Mm," Gavin acknowledged, immediately opening the files to review them. "Mr. Cooper, I’ve also finalized your schedule for

It sounded so much like Jolie! The thought stunned Rosalie. Jolie had a boyfriend, and she got sent abroad because of him. How could she possibly be in contact with Gavin, let alone on a video call with him? Still, an uneasy suspicion gnawed at Rosalie. If she could just take one glance at the woman in Gavin’s video call, she could put her mind at ease. Gathering her courage, Rosalie lifted her head and looked in Gavin’s direction, her gaze fixed on his phone. The next second, a figure stepped in front of her—Gavin’s assistant. With a cold stare, he blocked her view. Startled, Rosalie’s face turned pale. By now, Gavin had already entered his office. The assistant looked at Rosalie, his voice icy. “What are you trying to do?” “I-I…” Rosalie hadn’t expected to be caught so quickly. Her heart leapt into her throat as she scrambled for an excuse. “I just wanted to check if Mr. Cooper needed anything.” “That’s not your job,” the assistant replied firmly. “You may be the

Aveline held Joy in one arm and looked at Selena, asking, "What are you doing?" Selena replied, "Do you know what I just saw?" Aveline shook her head. "No idea." "Hickeys!" Selena pointed exaggeratedly to a spot on her neck, saying, "Right here. And I don’t think it’s just one spot. There’s probably a lot more below. Tsk tsk!" She clicked her tongue twice, shaking her head as she added, "Who would’ve thought Mr. Cooper could be so... ravenous." Aveline was amused and said, "Well, it makes sense. After all, he's already thirty, never had a girlfriend, and now that he finally does, of course, he’d go all out to spoil her." "Go all out to spoil her..." Selena drew out the words, mimicking her tone as she leaned in closer. "Ave, you’ve really been corrupted by Lucas, that scoundrel. You never used to talk like this." Aveline responded matter-of-factly, "I’m the mother of two now. What’s there to be embarrassed about?" "Tsk, tsk, tsk!" Selena made a playful, teasing expr

The corners of Gavin’s lips curved into a faint smile.The subordinate giving the report froze, his eyes widening in shock.What on earth?!Did he just witness that?Their notoriously serious and unsmiling boss—especially during work—had just smiled. In the middle of a meeting at his phone.Several others in the room noticed it too. Their gazes darted between each other in silent but frantic communication.What’s going on?Did Mr. Cooper just smile? At his phone? During a meeting?“Is he… dating someone?” everyone thought.“Ahem!”Gavin’s assistant cleared his throat, immediately breaking the silent chaos. First, it was a warning to the staff to rein in their imaginations, and second, it was a subtle reminder to Gavin, who was typing a reply.Even the assistant couldn’t help the slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.Who would have thought?The president of Cooper Enterprises, a man known for his iron will and unshakable focus, was texting his girlfriend during a meeting… and smilin

Rosalie said, “That must be tough for you. But why did Uncle and Aunt suddenly decide to send you abroad?” Jolie’s eyes flickered. So, her parents hadn’t told their relatives the real reason? How typical.Of course, they’d be too embarrassed to admit it. Shipping their daughter abroad just to force her to break up with her boyfriend? What a humiliating thing to confess. Jolie replied calmly, “I wanted to study abroad to gain some experience. It’s for my future photography exhibition. I still have a lot to learn.” “Oh, I see,” Rosalie responded, feigning understanding. Then she added, “Where are you staying? If I get the chance, I’ll come visit you.” “There’s no need, but thanks for thinking of me,” Jolie said lightly. “I’ll only be gone for a year. I’ll be back before you know it.” Rosalie smiled on the other end. “Alright then. If you need anything, just let me know.” “Sure.” After a few more polite exchanges, the call ended. Rosalie stared at her phone, gripping it

"Beep! Unlocked!" The electronic voice of the fingerprint lock sounded unusually clear in the quiet night. As soon as Jolie stepped through the door, Gavin wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her into a warm embrace. His hot breath cascaded down onto her ear and neck, making her breath hitch instantly. She didn’t even have time to take off her shoes before she was swept up into his arms. His kisses were relentless, stealing her breath and unraveling her control as her emotions rose and fell with his every move. Before she knew it, she was seated on the entryway cabinet. Her dress had been pushed up to her waist, and her legs were forced to cling to his lean waist. His fingers trailed over her skin, leaving traces of his presence wherever they went. “Mm…” A soft whimper escaped her lips as his kisses marked her skin. Each mark, blooming like crimson flowers against her fair skin, painted a vivid contrast on her porcelain complexion. The room remained pitch dark, but

The lighting inside the cinema was dim, making it hard for Gavin to see Jolie’s face clearly. However, he could sense her stiffness. He glanced at her deeply before his gaze shifted back to the screen.The movie ended, and their hands remained intertwined the entire time. The warmth on Jolie’s cheeks had subsided as they stepped outside. Glancing at the tall, handsome man beside her, her heart skipped a beat uncontrollably.“Jolie?”At that moment, a voice called out from not far away. Jolie froze, not turning around. The voice carried a hint of uncertainty, and the person’s companion spoke in confusion, “Are you sure? Didn’t they send Jolie abroad?”The speaker was Jolie’s cousin, Rosalie Quin, from her uncle’s family.Frowning slightly, Rosalie replied, “But she really looks like her.”Her friend scoffed. “You must be seeing things. Wasn’t Jolie sent abroad? Didn’t you mention her family even cut off her cards? I still can’t believe she’d go to such lengths over a guy.”Rosalie lowe

Jolie fiddled with her phone, trying to find the perfect angle for a good photo. Less than ten minutes later, there was a knock on the private dining room door. “Come in,” Gavin said calmly. A man in a tailored suit entered, holding a professional camera in his hand. Jolie looked at him in confusion. “Who’s this?” Gavin replied, “He’s an excellent photographer, a first-place winner in an international photography competition. Let him take your photos.” “What?” Jolie blinked in disbelief, glancing between the man and Gavin. So, because she complained about his lack of photography skills, he brought in someone with top-tier skills? And not just anyone—a world champion? Oh, dear! Jolie was suddenly at a loss for words. She opened her mouth but struggled to find the right thing to say. After a moment, she stammered, “Uh… actually, it’s not necessary.” “Not taking pictures anymore?” Gavin asked. Jolie shook her head. “No, I’m not. I’m hungry.” Having someone else tak
