Rose pursed her lips and did not say anything.If it was the old her, she would've dumped him on the spot! However, she'd learned a lot through the years. She no longer believed in the foolish fantasy that relationships and love had to be perfect.Even if she knew that there was nothing between him and Scarlett, which woman would be willing to see her man always having something to do with other women?At this moment, she quite admired the second in command of the Void Gang, and she wanted nothing more than to slap Scarlett in the face!However, she was just fantasizing about it. She reminded herself that she would not get her hands dirty for a man regardless of whether it was worth it or not!Kevin stroked her head and gently turned her face towards himself."I just bumped into her and we exchanged a few words. From now on, anything that has to do with her or the Follen family, whether good or bad, has nothing to do with me. I won't stick my nose into their business anymore!"This ti
Frank was livid as he sat on the couch. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have pushed Scarlett to imitate those other paintings to earn a quick buck!He had no idea who exposed the paintings and even posted them online!Amidst the controversy, even if he held another painting exhibition, he was sure that no one would buy the paintings! Since this was an all-out attempt and his family was in a situation where they were unable to make ends meet, he was unable to come up with that huge sum of money!Frank was worried about the expenditure they would have to incur, but Scarlett was more worried that she would be tainted and be given the boot from the painting industry. Her reputation that she had worked so hard to build would be destroyed. Besides painting, she had nothing else! Ever since she was young, her parents had always wanted her to study management, but she was not interested. Later, her parents encouraged her to cultivate talents and hoped that she could find a good
As she spoke, Mrs. Reed could not help but sigh."It would be great if your brother was here! It would be more convenient if we had another man in the house! Rose, when you have kids in the future, you're going to need to sacrifice a couple of years to take care of your kid. Once you miss a significant time in your child's life, you cannot turn back time. I didn't dare to mention this to your father just now, but his wish is for you to succeed in life! You have to take whatever help you can get even if it's from a stranger. Even if you are blood-related, you would still be distant after spending a long time apart!"She didn't want her to make the same mistake again! She stroked Rose's hair, and Mrs. Reed smiled again."So, I've discussed with your father that we would buy or rent a house near where you would live once you get married. As long as we are nearby, you had have someone to help you, won't you? It's just that we can't help you now. Instead, we have become a burden to you!""
Rose was thinking about the same thing. She did not trust Kevin in the beginning, as she did not expect that their relationship would last this long. Her feelings were complicated."What did you say?"Kevin was caught off guard when Rose suddenly mentioned that she had a brother.Rose looked up at him and pursed her lips as she nodded.There were only a handful of people who knew about her brother's existence! They used to live in a mansion back in the day and they rarely saw their neighbors. The only people who knew were their schoolmates. However, they were not from a rich family and have already parted ways with them. Who would remember these trivial things?"Tell me! Whatever you can remember or whatever you are allowed to tell me, you should just let me know at once!"He assumed that there were no secrets between them. For the first time, Kevin felt that she was a mystery. Although he had her in his arms, there were still things that he did not know about her.Rose then told her
"What do you mean he detests women? He brought a woman to the company's cafeteria before, remember? If a man does not mingle with women, it's a sign that he is gay or he has erectile dysfunction! However, judging by Mr. Davis's figure and his manliness, do you think that he is either? Don't you feel that something's strange? That woman replaced Mr. Davis's secretary for half a day, then took two weeks' leave. If she didn't terminate her pregnancy, then why would she need to take two weeks' leave?""Did you also realize that Mr. Davis hasn't been in the office during these two weeks? I noticed Mr. Waytt calling him a few times. He told me that he needed to bring some documents over to Mr. Davis to sign! I'm pretty sure that he did not go on a business trip!""No wonder she hasn't been fired, even though she requested two weeks' leave. It turns out that there's something fishy between her and Mr. Davis!""She's back today, but I didn't see Mr. Davis...""Mr. Davis doesn't necessarily ha
"I should be able to come home tomorrow afternoon once I am done meeting with my client. Is there anything in particular that you want?"The place that he was at was not far away from home. However, there was nothing much going on where he was and there was nothing particularly special about it. Kevin didn't know what to get her!"I would love some chocolates! Your coming home is already the best gift! If you could bring back a box of chocolate, it would be perfect!"As they talked on the phone, Rose entered the bathroom to run a bath. After talking on the phone for a little while longer, she went back inside to take a bath. She was afraid that the water would get into her wound, so she deliberately filled only half of the tub. While she immersed herself in the water, she picked up her phone and scrolled through the news. Immediately, she saw a name on the vaguely familiar headline.It read, "Overheating in Matthews Company's new product. The company issues a product recall.""The pro
Rose didn't understand what was going on. She stepped forward and flipped through the document. It was her work, after all, and she immediately knew that this was the one she had translated when she saw a few key points.In other words, it wasn't an issue with the person who had prepared the documents.Either Lilly or Peace might have been framing her!"Lilly, you said that you were the one who translated this document, right?"Rose looked up and directly into Lilly's eyes."What happens if I said that I have evidence that I was the one who translated this document? Why don't you think about it carefully? Are you sure that you were the one who translated this document?"Lilly's heart was thumping in her chest as she clenched her hand into a fist. She quickly went through the document in her head and realized that were no signatures or special markings. As for the translation, she thought to herself, "Weren't they all the same? How could she prove that the work was definitely hers? Was
Was Rose trying to deceive her or did she edit the mistakes?After giving it a thought, Lilly said, "I am a professional interpreter, unlike you, who doesn't even have the slightest bit of professionalism! I did not edit the mistakes. I just translated the document according to what was written on it! I have no idea what mistakes you're talking about!"Rose waved the documents in her hand."Yes, you are indeed a professional interpreter. You translated the document even when the whole thing was wrong! However, things were different this time. The translations were going to be used for a technical agreement. This agreement sent by the client had certain errors, which would have been detrimental to our company and also today's meeting...""Maybe you noticed the error when you checked it! It doesn't mean anything! I just translated whatever was written in the agreement and did not pay much attention to the details!" Lilly interrupted.Lilly tried her best to defend herself!"Yes, it does
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
