When Scarlett first gave up on Kevin, she felt a little reluctant. At present, Kevin had soared to great heights!There was nothing more painful and ridiculous in this world than having the person she once gave up becoming unreachable currently.At this point, nobody could understand Scarlett's feelings, nor could they feel worse than she did. However, instead of pitying her, they were all pushing her and peeking at her embarrassment.If this news got out, her phone might explode with notifications again! Although her so-called friends in the past had booed her with concern, which one of them hadn't paid attention to this matter? Every time they chatted, they either asked her about her wedding or invited her out. They were either trying to use her as a bridge to hook up with Kevin or make fun of her.To be honest, there weren't many secrets in this circle.The more those people envied her before, the more they enjoyed her misery at present.But it just happened that even Kevin had tu
Along the way, Daniel dutifully explained the surroundings while Rose listened. She didn't concentrate on what he was saying, as she had no intention of staying here for long. On the contrary, she mentally cursed Kevin. She, therefore, acted calm on the surface."Oh!"Just as she replied, the doors of the lift opened. She looked up and the words "Floor 63" emblazoned next to "International Affairs Department" came into view.Walking out through the door, Rose seemed to remember something before she said in a low voice, "Thanks!""My pleasure."A smile was returned before Daniel guided her toward the office hall off to the side. As soon as they entered, a clamor was noted in the hall, followed by various unsolicited greetings. "Mr. Waytt...""Good day, Mr. Waytt!"Nodding in response, Daniel headed straight for the office inside. Following behind, Rose couldn't help but roll her eyes. Daniel resembled someone. He was probably Kevin's duplicate! However, that showed how much influence
They acted one way in public and another in private. As soon as Peace left, the expression and tone of these people changed completely.All the goodwill Rose had felt from her new colleague was instantly erased. Even the thought of making do was gone from her mind.Sure enough, everything was just as she had thought it would be.The more pressure and competition there was, the more intense the comparisons for sure.In a company as prestigious as Star International, even an ordinary employee would act as if he or she were on a pedestal. Therefore, it was to be expected that things would be this way within the company. In front of Rose were several women wearing uniform black jackets and white shirts with short black skirts. At first glance, they all looked like ordinary suits, but on closer inspection, they were all dressed differently. Some of the suits had been made to fit well at the waist. Some had white blouses with low lapels, and some skirts were not just shorter but had also o
Likewise, soon after the bell rang, the office's tense atmosphere was replaced by a sense of liberation and relaxed pleasure."What's good for lunch today?""Yesterday's braised aubergine was so good! I wonder if they'll make it again today.""Let's hurry and get in line. If we go early, we can get a good seat. I hope the canteen chef will serve the fish steak soon! It's not fattening. When was the last time we had it?""Who are you asking? Aren't you the one who eats it all the time? I didn't even get a chance to try it! Also, isn't fried food fattening? Gee!"****Laughing and joking, several women piled out through the door. Meanwhile, as Mona held her lipstick and touched up her makeup, Rose couldn't help but stare.Weren't they going for lunch? Shouldn't Mona remove her makeup instead?As Rose watched them all leave the office, she was still wondering."Alas, JMT Translation Services is better after all! Even though the food there isn't as good, with Emma and Nora around, I never
It was not the first time that Rose experienced this. At this point, it was as if she had been transported back to the school cafeteria days. Because of Wayne's reputation, her classmates were wary of her in high school. Not to mention that her best friend, Stella Jones, was a bold girl with a crush on Wayne. As such, she became Rose's patron saint. If this had happened before, she wouldn't have had to do anything but give a look, and Stella would have just helped her get rid of the people.Back then, when Rose first entered the college canteen, she faced a similar situation. At that time, many students from other courses were also queuing up to peek at her. Still, she wasn't very mature back then. When she got tired of being pestered by others, she would get angry and chase them out. As a result, she ended up with the title 'Princess Unapproachable', ranking first on the hard-to-chase list. Although her reputation was ruined at the time, at least she had a peaceful college life.She
Rose was in a tizzy as she heard all the barbs. She hadn't even done anything, and yet she was mistreated already!What a misery! She couldn't even eat a meal in peace!Pursing her lips, she mentally cursed Kevin from head to toe again. B*stard! It was all his fault!****Meanwhile, Kevin had just put down the phone in the office and realized that it was after lunchtime. Just as he got up, his secretary, Doris, walked in. "Mr. Davis, lunch is ready. Shall I bring it up?" The canteen had already called several times, but she had not dared to enter when she heard voices inside the office."It's fine. I'll be eating in Canteen No. 6.""Huh?"Looking up, Doris's eyes were full of disbelief."Have someone bring the meal to the private room. I have something to talk to Daniel about!"As if something had dawned on her, Doris hurriedly nodded. "Yes, Mr. Davis!"But, why was Mr. Davis going to Canteen No.6 and not to Canteen No.8, which was close by? Doris couldn't wrap her head around this.
Rose was about to suggest that she take her food in, but Doris had thought ahead and stopped her. As Rose had already identified the room ahead, she didn't say anything more."Alright! Thanks!""Miss Reed, you're welcome."Doris only left once she watched Rose go. However, she kept turning back. It wasn't until she heard a pull on the door that she turned back again to make sure, and then she was slightly relieved. Holy sh*t! She had finally done her job!Looking at the plate in her hand, she was overwhelmed with melancholy. She had ordered whatever was available. The point was, they weren't even her favorite foods. She was on a controlled diet and had already packed her fruit for lunch.Amidst her despondency, another equally despondent person pulled open the door of the room beside her. Their eyes meeting, Daniel said, "Come in and eat before you go! What if something else goes wrong?"What he meant was that if Doris went back, she might have to come down again!Daniel was the one
All Kevin wanted was for Rose to have a wonderful life. Even if he weren't around anymore, he would still want her to live happily!Kevin's truest feeling at this instant was that she would live to the fullest at all times. Of course, he did not say this explicitly. Hence, unbeknownst to him, Rose's thoughts were contrary to Kevin's from the very beginning."Don't be so concerned about what people think! Rose, you're both smart and attractive. People will like you. You'll do well and be recognized by everyone."Rose chewed hard as she took a bite of beef in her mouth. "All you do is put labels on me. You're not letting me go, are you? You don't care if I'm happy or not or how much I've suffered," Rose grumbled inwardly.Rose then passed him some beef and a few shrimps, which weren't her favorites, after sending him an exasperated glare. Knowing that he didn't like rice much, she gave him the rest of the buns.Kevin was pleased to see the difference in her actions. He then donned his
Just like that one month had passed. In this one month, Kevin had worked non-stop. The next month he and Rose were getting married. Before their marriage, Kevin had decided to finish all his two months of work, because he had promised Rose that he would take her on vacation.In the Star International CEO’s office…Kevin sat behind on his chair and was busy looking at the documents in his hand and when Daniel knocked on the door and came inside…Daniel walked to the coffee machine made two cups of coffee and gave one to Kevin. Then he sat on the opposite chair.Kevin finished reading the file in his hand, signed his name, and put it down. He picked up the cup of coffee and asked…“How are the things I asked you to do?” Kevin took a sip of the coffee and asked.“I have dealt with everything as you said. The Follen Group all shares fell after the news of Mr. Follen being involved in money laundering and Tax evasion came to the light. After the investigation, Mr. Follen was sent to jail a
Just like that, with the help of that man, she shot that video.After hearing everything, Rose's eyes widened in shock. Because in the video lights were dim she wasn’t able to see clearly. What’s more men’s eyes were closed and because of the panic in her heart, she didn’t think too much and came here…“Since I have told you everything, I hope you can rest in peace after your death,” Lucy said as she stood up from her chair and was about to go out.However, she stopped and looked back at her. “Oops, I forget to tell you something very important. You are not going to die hare alone, so don’t be sad. Because your husband will also be going to accompany you.”“What do you mean?” She asked.“It’s like, in another ten minutes Kevin will be here to save you. However, as long as he opened the door, the bomb under your chair will be activated and BOOM!”“Okay, now I am get going, because your husband will be here soon.” After Lucy finished speaking, she picked up her bag and left.Before leav
The man in the photo was the person who had drugged Rose's father. Kevin had been looking for this man for a long time, however before he could catch him he had already left the C city.That’s why it takes so much time for him to find him. However, after finding out about the person behind all this, he was very disappointed. He had some idea, but after finding out that the person was Scarlett, he felt a little sad in his heart.After all, they have so many good memories together and even if they are no longer with each other, he still hopes that both of them can live their lives happily.“Scarlett, I had given you so many chances in the past, because I always respected our friendship… However, this time you had hurt the person who was very important to me… I will never forgive you…” Kevin said calmly.Kevin knows that for Rose her parents are very important in her life. All these years she had worked so hard to save her father. This time if something happened to her father, he can’t e
Kevin looked at Rose who was eating happily and asked, “I can understand everything, but I can’t understand one thing.”“What is it?” Rose asked.“How did I still able to win the bid?” He asked.“Oh, that… Because, I gave them a USB drive with filled with virus. As long as they opened it, all the data inside was destroyed.”Rose said. However, she was only able to do all this, with the help of Stella. Rose was very grateful to her. If she didn’t help her, she didn’t know whom to ask. It was also the reason, Rose sent her parents abroad, because she was afraid that once, that person found out that she had given him a USB filled with a virus, he would attack her parents again.Kevin nodded. After the both of them, finished eating, Rose washed the dishes and looked at Kevin who was still sitting on the sofa. “Why are you not leaving?” She asked.“I am not going anywhere. Because there is also another reason why I came here today.” Kevin said.“What other reason?” Rose asked, as she walke
After he finished speaking, he went inside. Kevin put the things in his hand on the table and looked at Rose, who was also walking over after closing the door.Kevin went forward and hugged her tightly. He buried his head in her shoulder and said, “I miss you so much.”Rose smiled and patted on his back. “Let me go, I am very hungry. Let’s eat something first.” She said.The person she asked to deliver food was none other than, but Kevin. Kevin nodded and let her go. After that, both of them, sat down to eat. Looking at her favorite food, Rose smiled and started to eat happily.As she was eating, she thought something and asked, “How are the things going on? Do you find the person behind all this?”Kevin looked up at her and said, “"Yes that man is Sebastain Davis, who installed that motoring device in your phone.""Sebastain Davis?" Hearing this name, Rose finally understands everything... "So it was him who did this. No wonder I didn't find out anything.""Don't worry, it will not l
Looking at the group of people who were condemning and glaring at her, Rose suddenly understood.It turned out that this was the real purpose of this trap! To let Kevin and even the whole Davis family witness her betrayal of him with their own eyes. It was to turn her family against her and completely break the relationship between the two!As her eyes fell on Scarlett and the middle-aged man, Rose concluded. "What a coincidence! This matter must have something to do with her!" Rose thought to herself.When she was still sorting out her thoughts, Lucy had already rushed over in anger. She looked at the computer for a few seconds, then she shouted."I saw you entering the hotel with a man sneakily. I thought that you were having an affair. It turned out that you had stolen something. Has the Davis family done you any wrong? You actually stole Star International's trade secrets in exchange for fifty million dollars? What is this? The bidding proposal for the west city!"She kept yelling
By the time Kevin came back, it was almost midnight, but Rose was still on the sofa. As soon as she saw him, she got up and ran up to him."Hubby, is dad alright? Is there anything wrong?"Rose took his coat and hung it up. She also took a set of clothes for him to change into and said, "You must be tired! Are you hungry? Let me make you supper. Go and take a shower first!"Seeing that he had returned, everything should be fine now. Just when Rose was about to move, Kevin held her waist."It's fine, I'm not hungry! Dad's fine now. We don't know what he ate that suddenly shot up his blood pressure, but he's stable now. It's already so late, why haven't you slept? Is there anything urgent that I need to know?""No! It's good that he's fine! I just wanted to wait for you to come back. I wouldn't feel at ease if I didn't know what's going on! As for my matter, let's talk about it next time. Quick, go take a shower and rest!"Pushing him into the bathroom, Rose quickly tidied up the bed an
"Then don't let him enter the third round!"He threw the list aside and said in a low voice, "Let's see how he can stir up trouble if he can't enter! By the way, do you think... there is anything wrong with the bidding in Western City this time?"“Okay.” Daniel said and was about to leave… However, he stopped and said…"Don't forget that you've made an appointment with Director Sander for dinner at Sky Water Hotel this evening!" Daniel reminded him when he saw that he was very disturbed and left!Kevin sat there for a while, moving away.****That evening, Rose went to Sky Water Hotel as instructed. In the room, she saw the so-called bidding document, it was a USB drive. The staff said that the room was booked online, but the customer was anonymous, so Rose didn't ask for more details. Although this person prepared everything so meticulously and carefully, even if she found out who put it there, the person must be someone insignificant!At that moment, Rose was not in a hurry to find
Rose accompanied her dad the whole way, and only turned her attention to Grayson when she went back to the office. Grayson gave her a cup of water."Don't worry, the results need some time to be released! Now, tell me, what is going on?" He asked."I'm not hiding anything. It is exactly as what I have told you! I don't know what is going on either..."Rose felt helpless, and her anxiety was obvious. Except for the part where she needed the proposal to exchange for the cure, she confessed everything.While they were speaking, a nurse sent in the reports to them.After closing the door, Rose asked anxiously, "How is it? What exactly is the issue?""From the films and the results, so far everything is normal! However, something... unknown is found in his bloodstream!"Because it was listed as a private and confidential matter, this report was not saved. It was specially labelled and the doctors filled in the report according to what he had given."Something unknown?" Rose muttered, her v
