Without knowing how much time had passed, she finally woke up. She stared out the window, and the sky was still gloomy. She picked up her phone and realized that it was already 5.26 p.m. Joseph mentioned that he would take her with him that night, but he didn't tell her the address. She got up and freshened up before she headed outside. Hayley was playing with the dog. She smiled at Waverly and greeted, "Madam, I've prepared dinner, do you want to have dinner now?" She thought it would be great to eat something before heading to Joseph's, as she wouldn't have a great appetite by then. Hence, she accepted the offer, "Sure, thank you." "I'll bring the dishes out now," Hayley spoke as she walked into the kitchen, with the dog wagging its tail and following behind her. Waverly sat down at the dining table. Hayley served the dishes. "Hayley, are there any audio monitoring devices that won't be easily detected?" Waverly asked. "Most of th
"You had an accident and Lenold was with you. Qianna hated me for splitting her up with him, and even if you did nothing at all, she would still dislike me for that very reason. Marrying her off to Beckham was just some sort of compensation." "In fact, Beckham was not even interested in her. It was just a stalling tactic." "She owes me a favor after this. She knows that I want her to be with Lenold, and she's grateful for that." "Your grandfather favors Qianna, and he even gave her 10% of the Mccarthy family's stocks to her. Besides, she promised to transfer those stocks to me if I could stop her marriage to Beckham." "As for Lenold, if I set him up, he would definitely be upset and would do something like joining your side just to act against me, but I think he now knows just how insignificant he is to me. I can make or break him. He wouldn't have a second thought of going against me anymore," Joseph listed everything out to Waverly. She was silent as she
It was basically impossible to make Joseph fall in love with her. He was a heartless man. He was cold-blooded, merciless, bloodthirsty, and murderous. She would never waver his heart even if she did everything she could. Moreover, she was foolish in love. Otherwise, she wouldn't be waiting for an unrequited love for this long. "How would you suggest I do so? Give me a trick or two so that I can do my research once I get back," Waverly smiled, but her gaze was cold as ever. "For example..." He raised her chin and fixed his gaze on her as he teased, "Please me." She pursed her lips. "Or, make me happy. Or you can even do the things I want you to do," he smirked. She sneered and pulled his hand away from her, "There are so many women out there who will please you and make you happy. They will all be willing to do everything you want. Did you fall for all of them?" He held her in his arms and said, "Why don't you try it? Maybe it'll be
"Madam, how did you know that I am working for Mr. Chuck?" Hayley asked. "It doesn't matter. You don't have to worry much. As long as you're telling me the truth, I'll let you stay with me," Waverly spoke gently. "Mr. President was concerned that someone might take advantage of you after you arrive in M Country. That's why he sent someone to negotiate with Bobe and let me tag along with you. I'm sorry, Madam, for not telling you the truth," Hayley confessed guiltily. Waverly shut her eyes. She felt warm in her heart, but the warmth was mixed with a string of complicated feelings, which was overwhelming for her. She paused for a couple of seconds before she opened her eyes. Her sight was already blurry by then, and she continued, "Can Bellamy monitor me through the surveillance cameras in my room?" She noticed that her voice was choked by sobs. She frowned out of frustration. She was still too emotional, and this side of hers would sooner or later cos
Waverly was not afraid at all as she stared straight into his eyes and confessed, "I can't just wait for my time to come while you keep going all over me. I have to find a way to get back at you. I have nothing to say now that you've found out about it." "Then I'll also let you know clearly that there are anti-eavesdropping devices within 100 meters around me. My subordinates will cut off all signals, block and delete everything recorded in those devices. You could never eavesdrop a thing about me, let alone holding it against me. You'd better think of another option if you want to get a grip on me," Joseph mocked sternly as he let go of her and sat beside her. He didn't look at her. He was giving off a hostile aura that seemed to be able to blow up everything near him. She did not dare to approach him. She looked away and his fingerprints were still visible on her cheeks. No wonder Hayley couldn't get anything when he was at her place previously. He was capable
She felt that Jasper and Sean were actually fortunate. Although they both gave up the President's position for the women they loved, Jasper was now happy with Stella; Sean found Eli, with whom he could spend the rest of his life. In this world, some either pursued a career, success, fame, status, or authority. And there are also those who simply desired to spend the rest of their lives with their significant other. All they yearn for was to live a simple and healthy life, relying on each other until the very end of it. Even when they've come to the final chapter, their hearts were still filled with longing for one another. Waverly didn't answer him. Joseph held the back of her head firmly, forcing her to make eye contact with him. "I'll get someone to send you back later." She nodded and tried her best to calm down. Even though her mind was blank, she couldn't help feeling that his hawk-like eyes could see something behind hers. He lowered his head a
"Joseph Mcccarthy, put me down this instant!" Waverly squirmed in his arms. "Are you sure you want me to put you down?" He gave her a look. His words left a bad taste in her mouth. It felt as if the consequences would be worse if he put her down. He wouldn't want her right away, would he... She pursed her lips and didn't say anything. He raised his eyebrows, walked into the room, and put her on the bed. Immediately, she got up and walked towards the door. He calmly turned on the TV and reminded faintly, "If you open this door, I don't mind doing it outside. Everyone here is under me anyway, and they would turn away if they knew it wasn't right for them to watch. The floor outside isn't that shabby either." She stopped and took a deep breath. She looked back at him and scolded, "Aren't you afraid of going to hell?" He slowly turned toward her with a sneer. The corners of his mouth grew into a smirk as he declared confidently, "I am Hell. B
On the other hand, Joseph was elated. Rubbing his face on her hair, his lips soon found their way to her earlobes. As he nibbled onto them, Waverly found it ticklish and annoying. Furious, she lashed out at him. "Are you not done?!" "Didn't it feel good earlier? Are you throwing a temper after you've enjoyed yourself?" Hi lips curled up as he mentioned this cunningly. She shoved him away. "Can't you see the time? It's getting late." It was indeed very late at night, but he was in a good mood. Closing the door to the room, he put his arm around her waist and pulled her to his side. "You may sleep. I won't do anything to you." Staring into the dark, she couldn't sleep despite how tired she felt. She managed to get him to stay behind, but she didn't get any evidence of his actions. Moreover, she was completely under his control and didn't get anything useful. She had to think of a way to prevent him from touching her. At the moment, the only pe
