It's not that he's not at ease, but seeing her laughing and talking happily with another man, he feels uncomfortable, even if that person is his cousin."The eldest brother is strict with girls!" Sivan Alexander pouted as he watched the boss's figure."You should find a girl to manage too!" Chris Desmond teased him."Forget it, and it's difficult for me. I prefer to find an independent and mature girl, so I don't have to worry too much," Sivan Alexander shrugged. He preferred to find a girl who was independent and more capable.o0oWhen Leon Alexander saw his cousin coming, he knew it was time to retreat, so he politely placed his glass on the table and disappeared."Look, I mixed this glass; try it!" Fiona Forger presented a glass of colorful wine to the man with enthusiasm.Damian Desmond lowered his head to look at the glass of wine, and in the end, he couldn't resist the expectant look on her face. He took a sip...If it weren't for respecting her, he would have to spit out the si
Sigh, their child doesn't need them. Should the two of them be reprimanded a bit? But the boss said boys should learn to be independent from a young age, so it's better not to control them too much as long as it's within acceptable limits.Fine, if he doesn't manage, she doesn't work!But her birthday is in two days, and as far as she knows, the boss's birthday is less than a week apart. She wonders how to celebrate it properly.The boss said he doesn't have a habit of celebrating birthdays, so if she likes, they can celebrate together. She remembered that he had mentioned wanting to take her to the beach to stargaze last time, which sounded like a good idea. It felt pretty romantic!Fiona Forger was flipping through the boss's work schedule, trying to see if he would be accessible in two days when the office door was pushed open; Anna Desmond appeared at the door..."Fiona, come with me to conference room number 1." Anna Desmond's tone was severe, and her expression carried a hint of
She quickly turned her head. "Why is this instruction different from what I saw this morning?""Huh?" The man responded absentmindedly, as if he needed to hear what she said clearly.Fiona Forger slammed her hand on the hand that was mischievously moving. "This instruction fundamentally differs from the one I saw this morning."She opened her tablet. "I made a copy of it. This is the content I copied from Angela Zylians' tablet this morning."The man held her waist, pulling her down to sit upright on his lap. "I know.""Did you even look at it to say you know?" Caught in the masculine scent of his cologne, she couldn't help but lean into his chest."Girl, since when did you start saving evidence?" He lightly nibbled on her earlobe."Anna told me that at work..." She slightly evaded but couldn't avoid him. "...especially for important matters, it's better to have a clear memory. It's best to make a copy."Anna Desmond had taught her many things about work, making her understand that it
"Why do you have the leisure to call me?" She deftly shifted the topic."Your work is probably busier than mine. Girls shouldn't take risks like that. Take care of your health," Chris Desmond said with concern."Chris, you're kidding. How can my work compare to yours?""Let's not compare our work anymore. Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together," Chris Desmond invited."Sure." They probably hadn't seen each other for three or four months. Although she had often been to the Desmond Corporation for business, she had never met him. Besides, she was alone when she returned home. Liliana Forger immediately agreed.After confirming the time and place, she hung up the phone.Liliana Forger rarely arrived on time, but today she intentionally changed out of her office attire and put on a modest, short dress. Her typically neatly tied hair was let down and flowed down her back. She lightly touched up her makeup and left.The secretaries in the secretary's office couldn't help but think
The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. Aboli Brian sat up from the bed and hastily removed the face mask, only to realize that Wilma Bonet had entered the room at some point with a curious look on her face."Sis, what's wrong?"Aboli Brian let out a sigh of frustration. "Today, I offended Fiona Forger.""Oh, you offended her?" Wilma Bonet's eyes lit up with excitement. She sat down on the bed and held her sister's hand. "What did you do?""Why do you seem so thrilled, like you're watching a funny play?" Aboli Brian frowned at her sister, finding her laughter rather inappropriate."I just thought that maybe you difficultly dealt with her for her to bear.""Do you think I dared to confront her right before Damian Desmond?""What's so good about her that the man sees her as a treasure?" Wilma Bonet said with a frustrated tone, a hint of resentment in her smile, and complete jealousy in her eyes."Regardless of whether she's good, you can't underestimate the power of
In the past, even though she always followed him, he would never say such hurtful words. But when she abandoned all shame and dignity this time, his every word felt like a slap, hitting her repeatedly.If he thought of her like that, then there was no longer a need for her to pretend to be a delicate young lady. If she didn't do it, then fine. If she did it, she would do it shamelessly. So she directly threw herself at him, entwining...But before she could do anything, Fiona Forger had already left!The only thing she didn't expect was that Fiona Forger didn't have the slightest doubt and instead humiliated her to the greatest extent in her life."You... you've gone too far!" Loona Richart picked up her clothes thrown on her body and used her hand to wipe off the things sticking to her face. The slimy feeling almost drove her crazy. How could she go out and meet people like this?!Thinking about how she was seen like this, she was about to go mad from all the gossip circulating after
"Cherry Desmond, do you believe that just by saying a few words, you won't be able to borrow a single penny?" Assistant Forger was also getting irritated. It was clear that this young miss intentionally wanted to argue with her. "Moreover, in the past, you helped me hide many things from the boss. He respected me and didn't question you. Are you sure you want me to bring up the past to him?""Fiona Forger, is this a threat?" Miss Desmond stood up, her tall stature and high heels making her look down at the seemingly innocent face curled up on the sofa."Yes, it is a threat. You don't have to accept this kind of threat." Miss Forger chuckled, feeling even more satisfied with herself.She's good at this! But she couldn't ignore this threat. She may have to ask Miss Forger to say a few things.She had to eat it even if she couldn't swallow her anger! However, she couldn't scold or get angry with her beyond her words!"Fiona Forger, you truly have no conscience, always seeking benefits fo
It couldn't be denied that, in certain aspects, he still held traditional male beliefs. Many years ago, their grandfather intervened and separated the two of them, and if it hadn't been for him voluntarily giving up, this relationship might have continued.Social background and status weren't the most important factors for a man. What mattered most was whether he had the trust, courage, and determination to go after what he wanted and whether he could lead a woman to follow him without regrets for the rest of her life."Brother..." Cherry Desmond understood his intentions and earnestly defended Kellan Lutz. "When I saw you this time, he didn't know about it. Do you remember what you once said to me? That a person with strong determination cannot fail? He is also such a person. Although not many people currently value his research project, it may have a difficult start, but I believe he will shine one day.""This week, I have to go to the United States. Wait for me to return, and then
