Amanda straightened up, hiding her hands behind her back and forcing a smile. "The door was open, so I just came in."David glanced at the door, his lips tightening, but said nothing.While his back was turned, Amanda quickly stuffed something into her purse, then walked over to the coffee table. "I

The sea breeze was gentle, but David's harsh words cut through the air. Selina seemed not to hear, her expression unchanged as she told Thomas she was tired and wanted to rest. Thomas immediately put his arm around her and led her back to her room.Watching them leave without a backward glance, Davi

David had caused the death of her child, and now she owed him a life. After this, they would be even, owing each other nothing!Seeing Selina's pale face, Nicole hugged her comfortingly, "Selina, he'll be alright."Selina pressed her lips together without speaking, filled with guilt. She had lost he
"Is that how you treat the person who saved your life?" David surveyed Selina on the hospital bed. Though slightly pale, she seemed to be in decent spirits. He gave a small frown.Selina bit her lip. "Who asked you to save me?"How could this cold-blooded man, who had callously disposed of his own f
Nicole enthusiastically introduced her, "Selina, this is Sarah. She's here specifically to take care of you."Daniel nodded in agreement nearby.The company had an important project in collaboration with a North American firm, and he needed to oversee it personally. Nicole would accompany him. Her t
Startled by the unexpected silhouette in the darkness, Selina jumped, instinctively curling into a ball."It's me!" David quickly said, realizing he had scared her.Hearing his familiar voice, Selina finally let out her held breath.The next second, she pushed away David's hand as he reached out to
As for David, Selina was so angry she refused to even mention him."How did things go with William and Grandfather?" Selina asked Thomas in a low voice, noticing Daniel and Nicole seemed relaxed.Thomas, wanting to make amends, told her everything.Bruno had taken in Dominic's remaining men and disc
Selina didn't give Bruno any chance.After hanging up on Bruno, she called Olivia directly to tell her they'd be taking the earliest flight back home.Before Olivia could even understand what was happening, she found herself on the flight home with Selina.Even after they landed and got into Ashley'
Pretending he had never escaped.Thomas's smooth handling of the Meracia situation was also thanks to the information David provided."Why did you keep this from me?" Selina's fingertips felt ice cold, struck by an inexplicable feeling of betrayal.She alone had been kept in the dark, worrying about
After tossing and turning, Selina couldn't fall back asleep. After calculating the time difference, she decided to call Thomas.Thomas had just finished dealing with William's matter when he saw Selina's call. Checking the time in Japan, his expression changed slightly as he quickly answered."Selin
Worried he wouldn't believe her, she added, "You can verify right now who really controls S Tech Group."Bruno hesitated before hanging up to verify Selina's claims.He had originally planned to stay by Selina's side as David, hoping she would gradually fall for him.He believed that with enough tim
He was much more cautious now, choosing his words carefully.Selina took a deep breath, her bottom lip turning white from biting it, and finally steeled herself."Didn't you say before that you'd fed David to the fish?" she said through gritted teeth. "Now you're trying to use him to threaten me? Do
The implication was clear - if they protected Selina well, he'd overlook their failure with Bruno. If not, their punishment would be even worse.The guards quickly agreed.Watching Joseph stride away urgently, Selina had no choice but to return to the hotel under the guards' watchful eyes.She paced
