But a child's strength is limited, and coupled with a day of not eating anything, his struggles are in vain. In the end, he used the last of his strength to bite the wrist of the police officer holding him, and the officer, distracted for a moment, released his grip. Seizing the opportunity, he ran away desperately.Running in the rain...However, his physical endurance could only last about 200 meters before his legs gave way, his head felt dizzy, and he felt his small body about to collapse to the ground when a pair of hands from behind pulled him back. Initially, he thought it was the police coming to catch him, and a sense of desperation overwhelmed him. But the person behind spoke, bringing the first glimmer of hope in his life."It's late, and it's dangerous to be here."He looked up and realized that the raindrops hitting him had been blocked by a large black umbrella...The airport parking lot was dimly lit in the rain, but the face of the person before him seemed like a beam
When blood relatives are involved, the chances of finding a suitable kidney will be higher. Therefore, the family's daughter, Fiona Forger, took the initiative to request a kidney compatibility test. If given the choice, Damian Desmond would never allow someone to go through the procedure of donating their kidney. However, this was an unavoidable choice.If he could take her place, he would not hesitate. So, when Fiona Forger asked for the test, he also requested to be tested.Moreover, Mrs. Olivia Forger risked her life to save Fiona; without her help, the person lying on the operating table would probably be her instead. This was something he couldn't admit.From a medical standpoint, removing one kidney would not affect everyday life, but how could the grandfather let his granddaughter take such a risk? Yet, no one could stop what Damian Desmond wanted to do, not even the grandfather.Therefore, ten minutes later, when Fiona Forger went for the test, Damian Desmond also went for a
But she couldn't learn anything from Alice because Damian Desmond's attitude towards Alice fundamentally differed from that of a passionate couple in love. After that, Alice shifted her attention to Jackson Hale, but he also showed no excessive reaction. So, Livi Taylor knew that Alice was merely a shield used by Damian Desmond, but she couldn't figure out whom he was shielding.This man was still young, yet his thoughts were so profound. How could one easily guess what he was thinking?After he obtained his master's degree, she wouldn't have the chance to meet him again.But his figure had deeply engraved itself in her heart, and it hadn't faded away for a long time.Abroad, beautiful Asian women were highly regarded, and Livi Taylor had tried to date boyfriends, but it always ended in dissatisfaction.As if it were an instinct, she began to learn everything related to finance and business. She collected information about him from newspapers, wanting to become more outstanding and i
But little did she know that after several years, her grandson did not forget about the girl and got involved with her again. He even gave up his position as a university professor to work at the Desmond Group and was so busy that he couldn't be found anywhere. If it weren't for little Sam telling her, she would have thought that his job at the university was keeping him occupied to such an extent.Today, she had intended to visit the university to question her grandson about his relationship with that girl. But to her surprise, she received even more shocking news that her grandson had resigned as a professor and joined the Desmond Group.This unfilial grandson of hers! He knew how much she despised the Desmond Group and disliked anyone associated with the Desmonds, yet he secretly defied her by taking such a drastic step. It seemed like he was deliberately provoking her to the point of anger."Grandma, Cherry is a good girl. Please don't say such things about her," Kellan Lutz knew
"Not to mention that you used to be friends. Why does it feel like encountering an enemy when seeing her? It's as if you're afraid she will steal your man. You don't even think like that, but the demon inside you awakens when that thought briefly crosses your mind.She stood up with a rare sweet smile and said, 'Assistant General Manager Bukk, what a coincidence. My car broke down, and I left my wallet and phone at the office. Would you mind giving me a ride?' As soon as she said this, the girl beside him immediately changed her expression.'If Miss Desmond left her wallet behind, why not let Emmett call a taxi for you?' Is there a need to protect one's territory so fiercely?Just a moment ago at the restaurant, they had just met for the first time, yet this girl stared at her with that look, prompting her to respond with a teasing tone. Although she had no experience in love, she could still see through those subtle thoughts of women.'Today, I had a little wine, feeling a bit tipsy,
His angry shout had barely ended when he saw Miss Desmond with her hair let loose, wearing a men's style long shirt that still couldn't cover her legs, revealing her slender and long legs as she stood in front of the bathroom door, "I can't believe there are cockroaches in your bathroom, it scared me to death!"She walked barefoot towards him, her long legs hidden and revealed under the long shirt, which made one's blood boil with excitement..."Stop right there!" Emmett Bukk shouted again, closing his eyes, not wanting to look at the girl before him, "Who allowed you to use my bathroom without permission? And why are you wearing my shirt?"Was he daring to scold her but not daring to look at her? So she was determined to make him look.The men's shirt was quickly removed and thrown at the man's face. "If Assistant General Manager Bukk is so possessive that you won't let me borrow your shirt, I'll return it to you."This time, Emmett Bukk was truly driven crazy by this girl.The thin
At this moment, there was indeed some doubt whether Master Lewis had chosen the wrong date. Why did things go so bad?"Have they found the culprit behind that car accident?" Fiona Forger wasn't stupid enough not to realize that this was someone deliberately setting a trap for her and her mother.Who could harbor such deep hatred for her that they would choose such an important date to set a deadly trap for her and her mother? It wasn't perfect."Hayden Forger is the one behind it," Damian Desmond revealed, seeing no reason to hide the truth. "He's already fled overseas, but I trust we can bring him back here."Hearing that Hayden Forger was responsible, Fiona Forger was astonished."Are you saying my uncle... my uncle caused this car accident?" Fiona Forger always knew that her uncle disliked her. Furthermore, he had directly forced himself out of the company due to downsizing, leaving him miserable. But he had worked for the Forger family for so many years; she understood why she had
"Mother, be quiet!" Wilma Bonet showed no respect for her mother. "Who caused me to end up like this? Now, I want to use my abilities to reclaim what I have. What's wrong with that? Does it hurt you that much, Miss Forger? Rest assured, she has strong support now and doesn't care about this small fortune of Forger Corporation. If she doesn't care, then I care. It's that simple. Please, don't bother with my affairs anymore."Wilma Bonet spoke passionately, her breath slightly erratic after surgery, weakening her body."Child..." Every time Naccy Bonet brought up this issue, she couldn't find a reason to refute it because her daughter was not wrong. In this lifetime, she owed her daughter, and there was nothing she could do to stop her from doing what she wanted.But Naccy Bonet was still distraught."I'm tired now, Mother; please leave." Wilma Bonet closed her eyes, clearly not wanting to continue discussing this matter.Naccy Bonet looked at her daughter's weakened face, feeling mixed
