After another week, Kevin felt secure in leaving Emily at home. His mother generously sent her housekeeper, Mary, and a young girl to his house.They know how to drive and are familiar with every corner of this city. The important thing is that they are not married, and have no daughter, younger sister, or older sister.“Tomorrow, I'll take you home to visit my parents. Don't worry about anything.” Kevin reached out and gently pinched his wife's cheek and spoke.“Yes.”Emily nodded and continued to eat breakfast. Kevin always ate faster than her and left the table before her.Maybe it was because he had to go to the company, and she was at home, with nothing urgent to handle.While eating, she thought about what gift to give her mother-in-law. Although Jessica doesn't lack anything, she shouldn't go there with empty hands.When Emily went back upstairs, put on makeup, and changed clothes, the phone rang. She saw a strange phone number, but she still picked it up.On the other end of t
By the time the couple arrived at the police station, Reid's statement had already been taken and superiors were also preparing an arrest warrant for Jennifer.From Reid's testimony, they discovered that he and Jennifer did not just do bad things once.The chandelier fell, aphrodisiacs were added to the wine at the year-end party, and the video was sent to Daniel moments before the accident.After giving her testimony and signing the report, Emily staggered out of the police station. Every time Kevin touched her hand to try to support her, she immediately pushed his hand away.Everyone, including her, could guess the reason why someone who was extremely careful in traffic like Daniel suddenly lost control of the steering wheel and crashed into the median.“Emily, don't hate me, neither of us wants that.” Kevin hugged her from behind, speaking in pain.“You also think like me, right? We, you and I, are the cause of Daniel's death.” Emily said in tears and tried her best to escape his a
The car slowed down and stopped in front of a luxury restaurant. Emily bit her lips lightly again and followed James inside. She did not expect that after all these years of exile, the day she returned, she had to meet her ex-lover just to save the Wine company, which is also her father's lifelong inheritance. “Hello. We sincerely apologize for being late.” James bowed and shook hands with Matthew and Jessica, then he turned to his daughter and proudly introduced her. “This is Emily, my only daughter. She just returned from country A.” Emily smiled brightly and politely greeted the two people in front of her. She realized that her ex-lover converged on all the excellent features on the faces of both his father and mother. Honestly, at first, she actively pursued Kevin simply because he was the most handsome in school, then his nice, warm personality gradually made her fall deeply in love with him. But in the end, the two of them had to part ways. “You two sit down. Kevin is c
“Your foot is bleeding. How can you abandon yourself like that? I'll take you to the hospital.” Daniel did not wait for the strange girl to say yes or no. He bent down and picked up Emily, causing her to unconsciously wrap her arms around his neck. She felt like she was a Cinderella meeting a prince. This lavish city seems to be concentrated with many rich people. She sat by the canal and also met a rich young man. When Daniel had just put Emily in the front seat, she lifted her injured leg and left it on her healthy leg because she was worried that blood would fall on the car floor mat. If she hadn't been afraid of ugliness at first and had properly bandaged her wounds, she wouldn't have been this pathetic. Honestly, she didn't expect that she would be dragged by Kevin like a bag. “Just sit comfortably. I am also planning to replace the car floor mats with new ones.” Daniel said. The car drove for about five minutes, then Emily saw a small clinic on the side of the road, so sh
It was late at night. In the dim lights of the room with classical architectural design, Kevin was still quietly sipping a glass of wine. Six years have passed and the wound in his heart still cannot be healed. This wound was given to him by the girl he loved. A week has passed since he met her and she has not appeared in front of him anymore. “Emily, you are also very obedient. That's right. Stay away from me. Don't hang around in front of me anymore.” Kevin said as he raised his glass of wine and drank it in one gulp. His thin fingers gripped the glass as if he wanted to crush it. That day, he stood behind the bars of the prison and waited patiently for her. Finally, the day he was exonerated, he immediately called her to find her, but he could not contact her. He only knew that she had gone abroad to study through the words of a classmate. After he put the glass back on the table, he staggered back to the bed and lay down, closing his eyes. At this moment, Emily was sitti
Since Jennifer's birthday party, Kevin has not gone out to meet or receive partners anymore. The year-end projects are in the sprint stage, so he is forced to devote all his time to work if he wants to be worthy of the hot chair he is sitting in. “Why is Venn late to work? It's already nine o'clock.” Kevin looked at the watch in his hand and grumbled. It's been three years since Venn was recruited into Unicons Corporation to be Kevin's personal assistant, he never came late to the company. He always comes before everyone, his fingerprint is always the first fingerprint printed on the timekeeper every morning. Kevin was about to call his assistant when he heard a knock on the door. A few seconds later, Daniel walked in. Daniel saw the disappointed expression of Unicons general manager, so he crept over to the sofa and sat down. “Are you waiting for someone?” Daniel just poured tea into a cup and asked. Kevin was just about to open his mouth to answer when the phone rang, stoppin
“Take a seat.”Daniel pointed to the sofa and slowly sat down, pouring tea into a cup.Emily smiled and did as he said. She glanced around the room. It seems that the layout and interior design of this place have partly reflected the interior, and personality of its owner, warm and friendly.“Please have tea.” He pushed the teacup closer to her hand and spoke softly.“Thank you. I really don't think I can be your employee.” She picked up the cup of tea and said.“Usually, the excellent new graduates who come out of Fashion Future will choose to stay in the world fashion capital. Why don't you choose to be like them? Is it because you still have an inheritance burden?”Daniel's question made Emily a little sad because she suddenly remembered the day she set foot at the airport.Originally, she also intended to stay in country A to forever forget the man she loved, but because her father told him to miss her and because he was unwell, she had to fly back.In the end, she couldn't ignore
Seeing Kevin engrossed in documents and seemingly not paying attention to the presence of himself and the girl next to him, Daniel didn't know whether his brother agreed.“Would you accept her as your assistant?” Daniel asked his brother but his eyes looked at Emily.“He has already agreed. I will start my work from today.” She answered.“As I said, no one would refuse a potential employee. Please try to support him for a few months, then come back to me.”Daniel patted Emily's shoulder and quickly returned to his room to continue handling work.Waiting until the door closed, Kevin raised his head to look at the girl standing in front of him. He didn't expect her to lie with such confidence.“What should I do now?” Emily ventured to ask.She only received silence from Kevin. He just considered her invisible and didn't pay any attention to her. However, every time he suddenly looked up, he saw her staring at him so he felt uncomfortable.The more he thought about it, the angrier he bec
