"I followed your request, didn't I?" Cindy replied sarcastically."Cindy, you want to make me lose face?" Mr. Brian asked. He almost went crazy.Mrs. Ann approached her husband and stroked his back to calm him down."Let's change into another set of clothes." Mr. Brian ordered.But Cindy pretends not to hear her father. She continued down the stairs."Cindy, you dare disobey me?" Mr. Brian shouted.But one of the servants came and said. "Boss, the guest has arrived."Mr. Brian tilted his head to look at the servant. He calmed down before speaking. "Let them in."And then he turned to Cindy again and said. "It's best to speak kindly. You mustn't mean to break your promise!" Mr. Brian warns his daughter.Cindy secretly holds her hand. She took a deep breath before joining her father and mother at the front door of the mansion to meet their guests.After meeting her fiancé, she learns that her attempt to look ugly in front of him with heavy makeup has been futile.Because her mysterious
Cindy didn't know what to say for a moment. She doesn't know this.William hides his emotions too well. For her, he is willing to do anything.Because he loves her, he allows her to hurt him.It's called deep love.Suddenly remembering something, Cindy asked. "Did you tell my father where I am?"William looked up, shaking his head. "No. I didn't say.""Only you know my whereabouts. If not you, then who is that person?""You know your father can do anything. If I could hire a detective to investigate your whereabouts, he would be able to do the same." William replied."I once told my mother that I may not marry you, hoping she can help your father's company without any conditions. But she still wants to follow her advice. So is your father." He says.Cindy sighed. "Adults always have their own thoughts. William, you're a good person. But I can't love you. You know, the one I love is Mike."William smiled bitterly."The memories of when I lived in the same house with Mike, I will never
Below the living room. Ethan sat on the sofa, frowning. "I really don't understand, the video was deleted, but suddenly it was uploaded to social media. Could someone help Mike silently?" Jessica waved her hand and said. "It doesn't matter who it is, the important thing is that my brother is not a pervert, harassing women." Ethan nodded. "You're right." His phone rings, he answers the call, and then goes up to Mike's bedroom. Jessica and her mother followed him. Ethan knocked on the doo,r but Mike didn't answer. He opened the door, sighing when he saw Mike in such bad shape. "Mike..." Ethan called out to Mike. "Starnight Magazine wants to interview you." Mike replied nonchalantly. "I don't want to do that." "Son, don't stay in your room anymore. I think it's time for you to go out." Mrs. Sarah said. "Ethan, tell them I'm not doing an interview." Mike coldly replied. "But, Mike, now there are a lot of companies that want to invite you to sign with them." Ethan tried to
Mrs. Sarah, Jessica, Maya, and Ethan are sitting on the sofa in the living room. They talk about Mike, they feel nervous.Another week has passed but Mike still hasn't stepped foot out of his bedroom.This worries them. What if Mike has negative thoughts?"A few days ago, I convinced him. I hope he will think soberly." Maya said.Even though Jessica doesn't like Maya, right now she needs to work with Maya to help Mike.They are deep in thought.They shouldn't have left him alone in his room!"No. I have to go up to my room to see how he's doing."Mrs. Sarah was about to get up from her seat to go upstairs but suddenly she heard footsteps coming from the stairs.The four of them simultaneously turned their heads to look at the stairs. They were stunned.Mike was walking down the stairs, looking like a whole new person.His fashion style has changed. He wears a black suit. The sleeves are folded to the elbows and he wears a pair of black leather shoes instead of his usual ripped jeans a
Mr. Brian got angry, throwing things on the floor. He loosens his tie because he feels suffocated.John quickly approached him. "Chairman, be calm, affect your health.""Shut up." Mr. Brian shouted.John didn't dare speak up when he saw his boss's scary expression. Suddenly, the phone rang. John picks up the phone, his face changing when he hears what the person on the other end of the line has to say.Then he put his phone down in his old wallet, announcing. "Chairman, our company has a big problem. The company is losing heavily, the employees want to quit, asking us to pay them. The investors are leaving the company one by one.""What?" Mr. Brian got angry again.Dennis's family broke off the engagement, the investors left the company. So, what will the Farrah corporation have to be?"No." Mr. Brian slammed his fist on the table. "Why did things turn out like this?"John patted him on the back. "President, please calm down."How can I stay calm? What I feared has happened. Without D
John turned his head toward the door, and when he spotted them, he got up and opened the door."Madam, miss." John bowed to them."What happened? How's my husband?" Mrs. Ann asked.John looked at Mrs. Ann, sighing and shaking her head. "The Chairman was agitated when he heard Mrs. Sam saying that he would annul the engagement of Ms. Cindy and Mr. William plus the news of Ms. Cindy, the company was losing money. So he was in pain. heart..."The thing I was worried about happened." Mrs. Ann cried again. Then she asked. "Can't the company be saved anymore?"John shook his head. "The company's situation was very bad, employees all stopped working, the stock went down, and the shareholders all left because there was no revenue. The chairman kicked me out. After a while, I returned. I came back and saw him faint, so I took him to the hospital."Cindy heard the two of them talking, she was even more confused. "Wait. Can someone explain to me what's going on? Don't make a fool of me."Mrs. An
William approached Cindy."I'm sorry for your father's death..." William said sympathetically.Cindy pretends not to hear him. She is not ready to talk to him yet.Now she knows his mother was behind the scandal over photos of her and Mike.She knew that his mother did it out of anger when her father disrespected her.But Cindy doesn't blame Mrs. Sam. She hates herself for indirectly causing her father's death.Anyway, it all started with her."Cindy, I'm sorry my mom accidentally caused your father's death. I know you can't forgive me and my mom for the damage we've done to your family." William continued to speak."I just want to say that in the coming days, I will be going on a business trip to the US. I hope that after I return, you will be the same happy Cindy as before. See it all as a dream." William waited a moment, hoping to hear something from Cindy, but thirty minutes had passed and she still hadn't said a word.William lowered his head, she felt very disappointed, her frie
"Now there is no company to accept her, as long as there is a place to recruit, she will definitely not pass up the opportunity," Mike said confidently."It's been four years and you still haven't forgotten Cindy. You want to get back with her?" Ethan asked."No. She abandoned me, I will never forgive her." Mike's eyes were filled with indignation."So, why do you want her to join Skymond?""I have my reasons."Ethan didn't ask anymore, he went out to do the mission that Mike said.Just as Mike speculated, after hearing the recruitment news from Skymond, Cindy and Violet applied there. Fortunately, both girls passed the interview round and will officially go to work tomorrow.---The manager of the design department opened the door to Cindy's office. She speaks. "Have you finished the designs for this winter?"Cindy looked up. "Yes. I finished it.""Good. Let's show it to the director. Once the director agrees, your design will go into production." Manager said."I know. I'll go now."
"Why?" Violet asked again. "You should know that GemWorld is a big company. Sir Tom doesn't choose you easily if you don't have a unique talent and focus. With this course you will learn more ideas and above all, you have the opportunity to be known and shine in the jewelry design industry.""I know. This is the problem. Besides, working at Skymond isn't such a bad idea.""Are you hesitating because of Mike? You don't want to leave him." Violet couldn't help but ask.Cindy looked up at Violet, sighing deeply."No matter which path you choose, I support you." Violet put her hand on Cindy's shoulder, cheering her on.After work, Mike drove Cindy home. He noticed all the way, Cindy didn't say a word. Sad face. Occasionally she would sigh.Mike asked. "What is bothering you?"Cindy out of her dream, looked at Mike and spoke hesitantly. "I have a problem...""What is that? Tell me. You know you can tell me anything." Mike took her hand, his other hand still on the steering wheel.Cindy tel
"Wait. Don't tell me you're in X city?" Rose asked."Let's keep this a secret," Maya replied."What are you doing there, Maya?" Maya asked. "Are you following Mike again?""Rose, only you can understand me," Maya replied."Maya, you still don't give up on that man?""Rest assured, I'll be back when I'm done with them.""Them? Who?""Mike and Cindy.""Cindy? Is she back?" Rose looked surprised."Yes. I don't want to see them together. I hate them. If I can't be happy, no one can." Maya clenched her fists."Maya, you're just ruining yourself. Stop and come back before it's too late. You can't win against true love. You know love is power. The more you hate them, the more you hate them. the happier they will be." Rose said."No. I don't want them to be happy."Rose sighed. She knows that Maya is very stubborn. She wants to advise Maya again."Maya, give up, give yourself a chance. Don't hold grudges. In this world, love isn't everything..." But before she could finish her words, Maya dis
"Instinct," Cindy answered briefly. She didn't mention Jessica because she confirmed it was true, then she told Mike.After all, Jessica is also his sister. The sister has a lover, of course, the brother needs to know what kind of person it is."Okay, okay." Mike didn't want to argue with Cindy. "Come with me, Mr. Tom wants to talk to you and he wants to know the details of your design," Mike said.Meanwhile, William was walking to the exit. But he stopped when he saw Jessica. She was a few meters ahead of him.William immediately regained his composure. "Jessica." He tried to call her.Jessica turned her head to the back and saw William, her steps were faster."Wait, Jessica," William called her again.But that only made her walk faster."This." Jessica heard William calling her. She went to the parking lot to leave as soon as possible.William could not let go of this girl."Jessica, wait." William continues to chase her, but she won't stop.William ran and held Jessica's hand. He g
"But not now. Mike, I have work to do. It's time to visit." Cindy said in a sweet voice. She turned to face Mike, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him on the lips."Let's talk after the show, okay?" She speaks."Alright," Mike replied with a wide smile on his face. "I'm going to talk to the guest now, honey, don't stress too much, I'm here and everyone is here to support you." Mike touched Cindy's face."Yes." Cindy nodded a few times."Goodbye." Mike kissed Cindy's forehead before he left.Cindy went back to work, the staff were looking at her and smiling, making her blush.Then they seriously continued to work.Cindy continued to check the jewelry samples when Jessica arrived."Sister Cindy," Jessica called Cindy.Cindy turned her head to see who called her name."Jessica!" That Cindy waved at Jessica when she saw her.Jessica wore the same dress she wore the night she met William at his bar."You look so beautiful." Cindy compliments Jessica."Thank you, Cindy. You're g
"Cindy!" He called, immediately getting up from the couch and approaching Cindy.He pressed near the head of the bed to call the nurse and doctor and then he sat on the bed, Mike holding Cindy's hand and touching her face. "How do you feel?" He asks.Cindy could see the worry in Mike's eyes."I'm fine. Where am I?" Cindy asked."Are you in the hospital," Mike replied.Cindy suddenly remembered what happened the day before. Now she's still a bit scared.Mike read Cindy's mind, he said. "It's okay honey, you're safe now." Mike tries to reassure Cindy. "I asked the police to arrest Linda.""It's not serious. You don't have to." Cindy said."She almost took your life, why do you say it's not serious?"“She was just jealous of me, so she…”Mike put a finger to Cindy's lips. "This time I won't let anyone hurt you anymore." He hugged her. "One more thing, Linda is involved in the fake gems scandal, so the police need to question her."Cindy is shocked. "Why would Linda do that?""I think she
"Recall that you owe me money. Even though your brother had a successful surgery, he needs to stay in the hospital for care. I can provide all of his needs while he needs them. you're in prison. And one more thing, Mike will definitely fire you through this incident. How can you provide for your brother's needs then?" Maya threatened."But rest assured, I will hire a lawyer for you," Maya added.Linda has become silent. She is stupid. If she hadn't cooperated with Maya in the first place, had she told Mike the truth, none of this would have happened.Maya is a crafty person. Now Linda doesn't know what to do but listens to Maya.She has nothing left for her but her brother. If she was imprisoned, there would be no one to take care of her brother.Linda is also unable to work and she cannot provide for her medical needs. How could she refuse this offer?"Okay. I agree. But make sure you keep your promise, Maya." Linda said."Of course," Maya replied with a smirk."Ok. It's done. I shou
In the hospital.Cindy's ward. Mike and the doctor were standing beside the bed where Cindy was sleeping."Let her stay here to observe more. Let's pray that everything will be okay." The doctor told Mike.Mike silently listened to the doctor. His shirt is still wet but he doesn't care. What's important to him is Cindy's peace.He is blaming himself. Last time, she almost drowned. This time, he shouldn't have agreed to Cindy's request. This bad thing won't happen.Cindy is pitiful. She drowned twice, but luckily, Mike saved her in time.The doctor left, and Jessica and Violet entered Cindy's hospital room."Brother, I brought you some dry clothes. You should change before you catch a cold. Cindy will be fine. We'll take care of her." Jessica said.Mike quietly took the clothes that Jessica brought and he walked into the bathroom.Violet stepped closer to the hospital bed. She held her cousin's hand."Violet, have you called Aunt Ann?" Jessica asked."Yes. I called." Violet nodded. "Sh
Her heart beat faster and she felt her body tremble. Cindy clenched her fist. 'No. No. I can't do this.' She said to herself. 'This is a bad idea. I can't take the risk. I think I'd better stay in the cabin.'Just then, Jessica's secretary approached her and told her something.Jessica turned to Cindy and said. "Sister Cindy, I have some work to do, I'll be back in a bit."Cindy nodded. Jessica and her secretary left.Because Cindy was standing sideways, Jessica didn't notice her pale face.Right after Jessica left, Cindy decided to go back to the cabin, but just as she turned around, Linda blocked her way."What do you want my help with, Linda?" Cindy asked, trying to sound casual."Are not," Linda replied. She looked at Cindy's face as if she were studying Cindy."Your expression is quite pale. I heard that in the past, the director canceled the yacht charter because of someone. Everyone said that person was you. Could it be... you have a fear of water?" Linda didn't care, her tone
"Cindy." Violet excitedly entered the office, calling out."What?" Cindy was startled, looking up at her cousin.Violet is very excited."To celebrate Christmas, the company organized a picnic at the beach for all employees.""Oh, really?""Hey. There's more. I heard we're going to charter a yacht to go out.""Yacht?" Cindy asked back as if she didn't hear well."Yes." Violet nodded excitedly."I think I won't go," Cindy said."Why don't you go?" Violet frowned and asked."Violet, have you forgotten? I have a fear of water." Cindy reminded her cousin."Oh." Violet's excitement immediately dropped."Because I was so excited, I forgot that you have a fear of water every time you go on a cruise." Violet is sorry."You can still join other employees," Cindy said happily."I won't go without you," Violet said."Why not? You said you should get along with the other staff. Don't miss your trip because of me." Cindy tried to cheer up her cousin."Never mind. I'll stay home with you.""Violet,
