Today, there will be a meeting for the Chairman nomination in Geelq Corporation.All of the board of directors and the shareholders came to the meeting to discuss the future of Geelq under the new generation.Eric came to the meeting after Lance took him back home. The two of them didn’t talk much as they were both busy today.Seated next to the shareholders, Eric looked at the four empty seats. The first seat, which was in front of the long table, is for his father, Chase Desmond.The second seat is for Lance’s father, Manuel Theodore.The third seat is for Lance, who is also a director at Geelq Car Company. But Lance never attended the meeting, so the board of directors has no clue about Lance.And last, the seat for Cyrus Desmond.Eric glanced at his wristwatch.‘Cyrus won’t come?’ he thought.It is a good sign. If Cyrus would not come, it means that he and Haidee were together, and they fixed their relationship.Now, all Eric had to do is to fulfill his promise.‘I have to be the
“What?!”Valerie Desmond got up from her seat when she heard what happened in the meeting.“My h-husband gave 25% to Cyrus and 10% to Eric?”Valerie felt like dying. She collapsed on the couch while holding her aching nape.“Madam!” The maid, who saw her, ran to Valerie.She held Valerie, but Valerie shook her hands away, as she didn’t want anyone to comfort her right now.Everything was a mess.“What is happening?” Valerie cried without tears. “Why do you let this happen, Chase?”The meeting couldn’t determine the next Chairman of the Geelq. After the voting, Cyrus accumulated 30%, and Cyrus has 30% too.The person who will determine the winner is the last shareholder who has 15% of the shares. And it is no other than Manuel’s son, Lance.[“Since I am new to this position, I am requesting to the Chairman to give me one more day. I will decide whom to support.”] That was what Lance asked everyone.Valerie gritted her teeth.‘So, this is how you fight me, Lance. I should have taken you
Jane doesn’t want Eugene to misunderstand everything. Therefore, she went out of her apartment and planned to meet her son in Desmond’s mansion.As soon as Jane exited her apartment, a man came out from hiding.He’s been watching Jane’s house for hours. And now that the owner had left, he walked towards her apartment.He unlocked the door with the master key and went inside.Jane took a taxi.On her way, she couldn’t help but feel anxious.[“I will hate you, Mom.” ]Eugene’s words kept ringing in her ears. Then he remembered the future.‘Eugene hated me in the future. He wished that he wasn’t born in this world!’ Jane was so afraid that the future would repeat itself. She did a lot to change everything. But it seems fate wanted to play with them.“Please send me off over there!”Jane paid the taxi driver and didn’t bother getting the change. She walked out of the taxi and ran towards Desmond’s gate.The gate was big and thick.Catching her breath, Jane pressed the doorbell.Ding dong
After calming Eugene, Valerie asked the maid to send Eugene back to his room and let him rest. Then she went inside her room and peeked through the window. Valerie saw Jane outside the gate. She was still sitting outside and waiting. Jane didn’t call the police. She had no choice but to protect her son even in this situation. “How foolish,” Valerie uttered. “Why can’t she just give up?” ‘Because she’s a mother.’ Valerie answered her own question inside her mind. As a mother, she could tell why Jane didn’t want to give up. “No. I have to be strict. This is for my son and my grandson’s future.” Valerie closed the window and sat on her bed. While sitting there, Valerie remembered the day when Cyrus began to plant the seed of hatred toward her. It happened years ago, on a rainy day. Inside the room, Valerie watched the rain from the window. Then, she heard footsteps thundering on the ground outside the door of her room. “Help! Help!” Valerie placed the bottle of her sleepi
Eric and Jane went back to Jane’s apartment. Jane changed her clothes, but Eric hadn’t changed his. They sat in the living room wordlessly. Even though they have kissed in the rain before, there are still uncertain things that Jane wanted to talk about. “Since when?” Jane broke the silence. With wet hair, Eric stared at Jane. “Since when did you remember the future?” Eric stared at her and answered, “Tonight. I only remembered everything tonight.” Jane drew a sharp breath before asking again. “H-How?” Eric’s hands clenched. He lowered his head and answered, “At first, I saw illusions. I thought it was just a weird dream. But after some time, I figured out that it was not. When I saw an image of you and Eugene, I searched for you again, Jane. That’s how I found you here.” “You mean, you saw us from the illusion?” “Yes.” ‘Now that explains why Eric suddenly appeared in our neighborhood,’ Jane realized. “But I am not sure why I saw those. The present and the illusion contr
In the future, Cyrus looked for anything that would ruin the Desmond family.Haidee already married Eric. And so, Cyrus was more determined to take his revenge.While looking for Desmond's weakness, Cyrus found a nurse, who was looking over the newborn babies when Valerie gave birth to her oldest son.“Y-Your mother, Agatha, stole Valerie’s child.”Cyrus’s world stopped when he heard the truth.“Agatha’s baby died. She gave me money to exchange Valerie’s baby and her baby. Therefore, Agatha ran away with Valerie’s child, and Valerie thought that her baby was dead. After that, Agatha made a scheme. She made Mr. Chase drink alcohol and pretended that she slept with him. She presented the baby, saying that it was her and Chase’s baby. Thus, after the DNA test, Chase and Valerie believed that Agatha’s baby is an illegitimate child. They didn’t know that the baby was their own child.”Cyrus found out that day that he, the lost baby whom Agatha stole, is Valerie and Chase’s real son.The t
Jane’s POV “Haa…haa…haa…”I almost forgot everything that happened between me and Eric that passionate night years ago. But now, there’s no need to reminisce about it as I was experiencing it again.Catching my breath, I looked down and watched Eric suck my n*pple.Why did we end up having s*x inside my room?We both learned that the two of us love each other and then we came from the future. Then, suddenly, things went heat.‘Eric said that this is his way to bind me with him for the rest of his life. Perhaps, it will be okay.’Because this time, we will marry each other. We will be happy together.“Ahhhh!” a loud man flowed out of my mouth when Eric gently bit my b*d. “E-Eric!”At my call, the man raised his head slightly. And the corner of his lips rose seductively.‘He is really handsome.’ I stared at his face for a moment even though he was biting, cuddling, and sucking on my n*pples.Eric sucked so well that my back moved on its own.“Ahhh, yeah… more…” the words came out inst
After Jane’s first s*x with Eric, she opened her eyes and saw the empty space beside her.But today, when she opened her eyes, she found Eric’s blue eyes. He stared at her as if he was watching the most beautiful opera play he had ever seen.They were naked, but none of them felt shy.Eric smiled sweetly as tucked her hair behind her ear.“Good morning,” his voice, rasp and rough, echoed in her ears and fluttered her heart.Jane closed her eyes and opened them once again.“What is this?” Jane asked. “The past or the future?”He chuckled huskily, and Adam’s apple moved up and down. He leaned closer to Jane.“It’s the present, my love,” he said as he kissed her forehead.His kisses went down her cheek, on her nose, and settled on her lips.The two of them hugged each other, tasting their tongues for their early breakfast.Jane felt as if she was floating in clouds within the arms of her beloved man, college friend, and Eugene’s father.When they parted, they chuckled sweetly.Eric reach
