Her entire body was feeling hot as if she was being engulfed in flames.She was in a dreamy state. With a blurry vision, she caught hold of a man’s arm.She wanted to cry for help. A strong masculine scent reached her. Her slightly opened lips were blocked off by a strong force.She wanted to resist, but the man did not give her any chance to do so. He went in straight, exploring her mouth and consumed her whole.Undoubtedly, towards this strange man’s kiss, she should have resisted and felt repulsed by it.But, why is her body feeling stimulated?In the next second, she experienced a wrenching pain in her lower body.A strong pain seized her.*********Early morning.....The early morning sunlight shone through the beautiful curtain, illuminating the furnishings in the luxurious room.Clothes were all over the floor messily. The air had a slight odour of last night's affair. On the bed, the lady was partially visible under the golden color quilt.Red marks were slightly visible on h
Jude held onto the divorce agreement as if he had just received a fortune. He announced coldly, “It is stated in the agreement that you will clean out the house. Move out tomorrow. Except for your personal belongings, nothing else can be taken away.”Cynthia’s tears flowed down her cheeks, her whole body was frozen stiff.That night, she packed up her things and moved out of her matrimonial home. She checked into a hotel and contacted her aunt who was living in a nearby country who advised her to stay with her.Cynthia was weary of the people and the matters here. However, she just came to the realization that her passport was at the Leonards residence.She had no choice but to catch a cab back to the residence.As she rounded the garden, she heard somebody chatting in the grove. By the sound of it, it was her mother-in-law, Cherry, laughing gaily with another. “Are you satisfied now? My son is finally single, you needn’t feel wronged any longer.”Cynthia’s heart skipped a beat. She a
Fortunately, her drawing talent which she had fostered at a young age, landed her a job which she loved. And through her hard work, she had managed to leap to the position of chief designer.Three years ago, just after giving birth, she had become a jewelry designer. Her creativity had won her numerous international awards. And the relocation of her company’s headquarters had resulted in her transfer.It had never occurred to her that the ultimate address for her company’s relocation would be the city that had beaten her black and blue.She had initially thought of quitting her job and finding another. However, four years had passed and her resentment had disappeared. She had deliberated over it. Why should she have to give up three years of her hard-earned position because of the past? She had already lost everything to them, and she refused to start from scratch again because of them.So she came back.“Where is Chief Designer Cynthia Lawson? Is this not her flight?” The female assi
With her son’s hand clasped in hers, she entered the lobby. They then took an elevator up to where her assistant, Tania was waiting for her.“I’ll hand my son over to you. I’ll be meeting my client so please look after him for me. Do not let him run about.”“Yes, Miss Cynthia.” Tania was more than happy to take on this task.Because she could play around with this little bean, she was extremely happy.“Zion, do you want some candy? I’ll give you some.” She took out two lollipops from her desk drawer to entice him.Who would have known that the little boy would scrunch up his face and said to her, “I’m no longer a child. I don’t want candy.”No longer a child? Tania tried to suppress her laughter and looked at the little bean. He was clearly still a child, and a cute one at that!Cynthia first went to her boss’ office. Her boss was a very capable woman. A bold, 40-year-old woman of mixed descent named Linda. Having been divorced, she was now a single mother with children. That was also
Cynthia stroked her son’s little head. With a smile on her lips, she said, “Alright, didn’t I tell you before? Back then, mommy didn’t even know who your father was, so let’s not search for daddy, okay?”“Mommy, I heard that it’s popular now to have a godfather. You wait, some day I’ll find one to support you.” The little boy said with arms akimbo.After hearing this, Cynthia burst out laughing. Looking at her little boy, she said, “No, mommy doesn’t need you to find a godfather! Mommy is able to protect myself and also you.”The little boy pursed his lips, stubbornly holding on to that thought.“Mommy still has some work to do. Why don’t I ask Aunt Tania to bring you out for a meal?” With his hand in hers, Cynthia led her son to her office.After Cynthia had cautioned them to pay attention when crossing the road, Tania left with the little boy’s hand clutched in hers.Behind her, Linda walked in and asked, “Cynthia, how did it go?”“I’m acquainted with this Mrs. Leonard. She’s not so
Once again, Tania wasn’t sure whether to laugh or cry. Looking at him, she said, “Little bean, it’s better not to invite trouble for your mommy. We can’t afford to offend this sort of man.”“Aunt Tania, you also think I looked like him, right?” While he was carefully studying the man in the photo, he felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.“That’s right. You resembled him. Other than your nose and mouth, the rest of your facial features bear a striking similarity to him. Your father must be a very handsome man, otherwise, how could there be such a good-looking little fellow like you?” Tania was green with envy.Looking at the man in the photo, the little boy questioned, “Aunt Tania, are you sure that this man can be found at that building?”“That’s his company. He should be working there.” However, Tania herself wasn’t actually sure of this. Gabriel was, at present, the world’s wealthiest man. Who could be sure of his whereabouts?But the little fellow took it seriously and kept it fi
Mommy, don’t worry, I’ll behave. Can I play in the lounge?”Cynthia required a great deal of concentration while sketching. The deadline to hand in the draft to Angela was fast approaching. What she really needed now was total concentration.Nodding her head, Cynthia counselled him. “You can play on your own, but you’re not allowed to take a step out of the company’s entrance. Don’t get up to mischief, alright?”“Got it, mommy.” The little fellow answered quickly.Cynthia was at ease because she trusted her son. Ever since he was young, she’d never have to worry about him.“Go on then!” She smiled and walked him to her office door.Once outside, his huge eyes immediately surveyed his surroundings. Looking out the glass panes, he stared fixedly at the pyramid-like building. His huge eyes flashed with resoluteness.Now was his best chance to leave. He had to seize it.Because the little bean was still small, no one saw him slipped out. He dashed off as soon as he was out the doors. But
Zion immediately retracted his wandering gaze. Turning his head, he caught sight of the imposing figure seated on the sofa. It stands to reason that looking at such a figure would have the little boy quaking in his boots, or that he would be perturbed by that icy demeanor.However, to the little boy, this man appeared to be amiable. In his eyes, this man was like a daddy figure. While waving at him, the little boy mustered the loveliest smile he could come up with.The steady gaze of Gabriel dissolved into shock at the sight of the child’s appearance which closely resembled his own. This little boy was the spitting image of his younger self.His small face was like a finely carved jade. The contours of his face were carved to perfection. He had pink-flushed cheeks. This charming little face was reminiscent of himself when he was still a boy.While he was still in a state of shock, he saw the little boy turned to Assistant Sandra speaking in a serious tone, “Aunt, can you leave us? I n
Upon arriving at the car park, the bodyguard was waiting respectfully there. After getting on the car, when Cynthia saw him walking over, he did not seem to feel any pain from his wounds at all. Furthermore, with her earlier anger towards him, she could not help but squint at him, "Your wounds are not painful at all, you just don't want me to watch a movie right?""You want to see a man? Go back home with me, I'll show you enough." Gabriel snorted.She realized that she couldn't reason with him, and she said a little angrily, "If I knew this would happen, I would've gone to see it myself." It's such a pity to have bought a ticket for such a wonderful movie and not watch it.A few seconds after she finished speaking, her slender shoulders were suddenly pulled over by the man. Before she could react, the man had already covered her with a frantic kiss.The first was a wild and overbearing kiss, making it hard for her to resist.This kiss continued for two minutes before Gabriel finally
Soon after, the second set of works was brought up on stage. On the huge screen, this pair of jewellery shined brilliantly and caused people to look forward to it. Very quickly, it was sold for over a million dollars.The sixth painting was placed on top of the glass cabinet. Under the light of the lamp, the lotus flower necklace seemed to reveal a kind of Oriental beauty. It was beautiful and gentle, deeply favored by women.The starting price was three hundred thousand dollars and it was inlaid with extremely rare diamonds. It was lifelike, dazzling, beautiful, and extremely valuable."One million dollars." Immediately, people in the crowd raised their bids."One million and five hundred thousand dollars!" another woman called."Two million dollars."The price continued to rise. Cynthia was a little confused, her mind was also tight from the shock.What moved her even more was the recognition of her design."Three million dollars." A rich woman announced loudly. This necklace was bo
Fortunately, the bra design was conservative, so Gabriel had no objections. After that, he had matched it with a set of diamond jewelry, earrings, a necklace, and a bracelet as well.After the test, Cynthia relaxed. The acceptance ceremony would be held in the afternoon, and Linda had said that there would be a thank-you banquet tonight, so, the day belonging to the fashion designers was going to be even more lively tonight.Cynthia accompanied Gabriel back to the hotel to eat. After eating, she accompanied him back to the hotel to rest.Gabriel took the chance to take care of matters related to work, and when Cynthia entered her room to sleep, his phone rang. He picked it up and looked, his expression slightly tense, it was his grandfather."Hey!" "Grandfather.""Didn't I ask you to bring Zion here today? Why didn't you bring him here? ""I'm abroad.""What are you doing abroad?" Grandpa York asked curiously."Handling work matters.""Alright then!" Wait till you get back. " Grandpa
Cynthia stayed behind and she was also tired. She walked into the bedroom and slept, closing the door tightly.Gabriel was also tired. Although he did not touch her, but the tense atmosphere between the two of them had finally been relieved. She was sleeping in the room next door, which gave him a sense of security.Early morning.....Cynthia opened her eyes and immediately pushed the door open, walking into Gabriel's room. He did not close the door, nor did he wake up.The corner of his mouth lifted a little. It seemed that she still wasn't suitable for hating someone, as hating others was too tiring, and if she didn't hate him, then she would choose not to hate him!When Cynthia was about to leave, the man suddenly woke up. She reached out his hand and pressed it against Cynthia's waist, afraid that would hurt it, hence Cynthia immediately followed suit and laid on his chest, "Are you awake?""Hm!" We'll have breakfast together. " For a man, even living three meals a day with her wa
Cynthia was in a trance for a few seconds. In fact, her heart was not as calm as she appeared, as her heart was always thrown into disorder by him. His appearance was bound to cause her to be unable to calm down.Cynthia slightly lowered her eyes, looking at the tip of her feet, not wanting to look at him.Gabriel walked step by step to his side, narrowed his eyes and sized her up. This woman was actually not particularly dressed up, and just came like that.But even if she wore ordinary clothes, even if she dressed inconspicuously, he already had a deep desire for her. Even if she dressed poorly, it wouldn't stop him from wanting her to be impetuous and sexy."Have you had dinner?" Gabriel asked in a low voice.She bit her lips as she ignored him."I haven't eaten yet, let's go eat some more.""I don't want it." She didn't want to accompany him to eat."No? Are you sure? You can't blame me when you faint from exhaustion tonight. " Gabriel said with a warm and detestable smile.Cynthi
However, Luke still tried his best to have them chase after the direction of the trash.After he was done, Luke called Maureen who was seated and waiting. Upon hearing the summons, she immediately stood up and left the table.Behind her, there were also many employees who had guessed that Luke came here to investigate this matter. He was a strong person, he would definitely be able to find out what she did.Maureen walked to the door of the meeting room with big anxious steps. She lightly knocked on the door, and then Luke's low voice sounded from inside, "Come in."Maureen pushed the door open, and saw that Luke had also stood up. Maureen held the door open, and walked to his side, but before she could say anything, Luke's strong arm wrapped around her, pressing her down on her chest.Maureen's nose that was wronged started to sour, tears started to roll down her eyes, the grievances she had suffered this time was too much.Luke lowered his head, looked at her still immature face and
Other than Lina who still stood at the side to advise her, no one else would understand.Maureen's small face was stretched taut. She was surprisingly quiet, and even though she was under such huge pressure, there was still someone in her heart who gave her strength and comfort. That person was Luke.She knew he was coming."Maureen, it's no big deal. I'm just being fired. In the future, you can look for other jobs!" Lina consoled."I didn't do anything wrong, why should I resign? It's not my fault. " Maureen firmly believed from start to finish that he had not done anything wrong."Sigh!" Why are you so stubborn! Who doesn't feel wronged when they work here? " Lina sighed.At the entrance of Ministry of Foreign Affairs, an army-green off-road vehicle suddenly stopped, causing all of the employees who entered the hall to raise their eyebrows.At this moment, the driver's door was pushed open, and a tall and handsome figure jumped down.The man's sharp eagle eyes swept across the crowd
Fortunately, Maureen's talent in speech was extremely good, and adding the fact that she had befriended someone in Ministry of Foreign Affairs, two of her colleagues from other languages came over to help her. Before going to work, she went over to Renee's table, causing her expression to change slightly."Minister, the information you requested has been translated. Do you have any other instructions?""Maureen, did you translate all these yourself?""Minister, I have asked around before, but you are the only one who can simultaneously translate all eight languages at the same time. Therefore, for an assistant like me to be able to translate all six languages at the same time, it is already considered pretty good." Maureen said.Renee sneered, "Do you think this is considered outstanding? There are still a lot of places for you to learn. For today's meeting, you will be joining me. "Maureen saw a sly smile flash past her eyes, and immediately felt that something was wrong. However, s
Aunt Mercy nodded her head, "Of course I have, but only a few times. I remember that when she was young, she was an exceptional beauty.""Why didn't she want me anymore?" Cynthia asked somewhat angrily.Aunt Mercy shook her head once again. Regarding the matter that happened that year, even if she had doubts, she did not want to say it anymore. "Only your father knows about this secret, even I do not."Cynthia exhaled, "Seems like she really doesn't want me anymore. Otherwise, she would have come to find me even after so many years.""Cynthia, don't be sad. I feel like she didn't leave you behind, but had her own difficulties." Aunt Mercy advised and changed the topic, "Tell me about Gabriel! From what I see, he is definitely not an ordinary man.When Cynthia saw that she could not hide anything from her, she could only tell her everything that had happened recently. Although she had brought up some matters of life, Aunt Mercy could tell that she and Gabriel had some feelings for each
