Thinking of Rose, Kevin's determined face softened a little."Promise Garden. That's my current residence. I need you to help me scout some suitable properties. The house doesn't need to be too big, either a single or double-story will do. A few hundred square feet will do, make sure it's low-rise where is suitable for seniors to live in, safe and a touch of luxury. A shop lot is okay too, but don't rent it, just buy it. Renting is far too troublesome."Wasn't Rose's mother running a small business of her own? Since Rose often got homesick, bringing her mother to live nearby would make her happy! Although it was not a problem for Kevin to have more people in his home, he had subconsciously hoped that there would be more privacy, as he didn't want his time with Rose to be disturbed.After much thought, he decided a place nearby would be best.Being close to her, it was convenient for him to take care of her. Even if they fought, he could pick her up in the middle of the night, or even
"Are your seniors making things difficult for you? Some people just can't stand watching others succeed! These are the people I hate the most, seniors who bully those under them! That's why many talented freshmen who couldn't handle the unnecessary pressure that their seniors put on them quit! As long as you bear with it for a while, and bide your time till your probation period is over, once your placement is confirmed, all will be fine. Every newbie in a company has to go through this hardship. After all, experience creates skilled masters!"John was very serious as he tried his best to comfort her.Unbeknownst to John, she had dealt with many salesmen before and was clear about the very nature of these men. She knew they were smooth-talking people, often stretching the truth, and liked showing off. And in private, they would ridicule and joke about any matter, even if their spouses were the butt of the joke. But despite all this, she felt that John wasn't so bad after all.Nodding,
Rose turned around with her head hanging down as she reluctantly followed Kevin.They took the VIP elevator this time.As the elevator started moving, Daniel shook his head and let out a long sigh. He took out his phone and sent a text message, "Send me all the records of the male employees in the sales department. Yes, those with photos attached."****In the elevator, Kevin was as cold as ice. Rose fluttered her eyelashes and looked at Kevin while secretly licking her lollipop."How unlucky! It's such a rare chance for me to have a good time here. Why did he show up there and ruin it all?""This isn't fair! Sure enough, Star doesn't bring me any luck at all! I have to make sure to check the daily horoscope predictions before leaving the house now!" Rose complained inwardly.On the way up, the atmosphere in the elevator was quiet and depressing. Kevin was angry while Rose was complaining about how unlucky she was.Ding! Suddenly, the elevator bell rang. The moment the elevator door o
In this situation, if she tried to protect John and the others, it would probably backfire. Therefore, Rose had to deliberately act and showed that she had taken the initiative to provoke Kevin. Raising her chin, she said."It's said that birds of the same feather flock together. The friends of elites will naturally be elites too. If I get to know a few more of them, I won't have to worry if the company fires me in the future then."What Rose meant was she was looking for a backup. And if one day Kevin decided to dump her, she would still have someone who could take her in.Upon hearing what Rose had said, Kevin stared at her and gritted his teeth as he asked, "Elites? Getting fired?"As he pinched her chin, Rose could see through his deep eyes that a huge thunderstorm was coming for her very soon."So, this is what you are busy with all these time? Busy looking for my replacement?" asked Kevin.She must be blind! One of the world's most attractive and wealthiest men in the world was
Did she not like the food at the cafeteria? Why did she order so little? Kevin wondered.Kevin stroked her hair and answered, "Okay!"Then he picked up the handset and made his order. At the same time, he also instructed his assistant to prepare a plate of cut fruits. After taking a glance at Rose who was sitting on the sofa, Kevin turned around and went to the coffee bar to make coffee.When he was at it, he asked, "Do you not like the food here?"She seemed excited and wanted to eat anything available at the cafeteria the last time. But it seemed that she had lost her appetite nowadays.Scrolling through her phone, Rose casually answered, "No, the food here is one of the best I've ever had!"As she was replying to a text message, she couldn't help but pause for a short while. To be honest, in Rose's opinion, the food is great, but she would always end up losing her appetite whenever she went to the cafeteria. When she first joined the company, there would be so many people gathering
She could also see that Kevin did not want her to enter. However, Scarlett did not know that it was because there was someone inside. She thought that perhaps he was on guard against her, as he seemed slightly embarrassed.However, to get where she was, Scarlett had already sacrificed so much. Therefore, no matter how embarrassing it was, she still forced a smile."I've set up a small private painting exhibition this weekend! I wanted to pass you an invitation, thus I dropped by!"As she spoke, she took out an artistically designed envelope. "Can you come to show some support? Is it okay if you come alone?" She asked as she passed it over.Fearing that Kevin would take Rose with him, Scarlett strategically stopped him from doing so.They were still looking at each other."This is the first painting exhibition I'm hosting ever since I return. I would like to have a good start! If it's alright with you, just do me a favor and support the launch please?"As he reached out for the invitat
Holding the bag, Rose paused. She didn't know what was wrong with him, but when she heard his words, she immediately understood.Blushing in embarrassment, she said, "Stop exaggerating." If he felt that she could attract men's attention just by eating, then she should go on a hunger strike!After picking out a pack of jelly, Rose's eyes shone with excitement. "Grape flavored, that's my favorite!"She tore the wrapper open and started slurping on the jelly. With her free hand, she rummaged through the bag for another grape-flavored jelly.Almost instantly, Kevin narrowed his eyes and hissed, "And no jellies as well!""Huh?"Surprised, Rose raised her head and said, "What?"Unable to comprehend the matter, she was flustered.Kevin's gaze fell on her luscious red lips as he said in a low voice, "You are not allowed to eat in front of any other man!"Was it that her eating mannerisms would stimulate a man's desire?!In that instant, Kevin understood. It was actually because of Rose's lips
After making sure there was no one outside, Rose waved her hand and whispered, "Bye, Honey!"Then, she quickly squeezed out of the door and trotted into the elevator.She wasn't concerned about explaining herself to her colleagues. After all, no matter what she said, no one would dare to ask Kevin to verify it. Therefore, she had already thought of an excuse in the elevator.Her excuse was simple. It was that she had been taken to the office by the President for a lecture, and was punished to clean his office afterward. Hence, she was away for a long time.Sure enough, as soon as she returned to the office, she was called in by the manager before she had the chance to be swarmed by her colleagues. She entered her manager Peace's office and started narrating the excuse that she had come up with.After listening to Rose, Peace's brows were furrowed in confusion. "Is that it?"Everyone else had three days' wages deducted, which was understandable given their President's temperament. Peac
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
