"It's getting late, let's hurry up and go upstairs," Mark interjected before Chloe could speak. He couldn't guarantee that Chloe would cover for him. He knew too well about her personality, always fearing that everything would fall apart.His remark made Alma even more suspicious, but she didn't want to continue questioning, so she followed behind Mark towards the elevator."I suddenly feel sorry for Miss Alma," Flora muttered softly as she watched Alma's figure.Linda glanced at her and said, "She's not worthy of sympathy. I feel more sorry for our Chloe!""Thanks for your sympathy," Chloe clenched her teeth and muttered these words, watching Mark and Alma get further and further away. When she looked back at the car, the bright red color suddenly seemed extra glaring, stabbing her heart painfully!Back in the guest room department, Linda immediately shouted to Chloe to find out Kevin Davis' room number. She didn't necessarily need to get him but just seeing him would be satisfying e
"Just a little bit..." Flora's facial muscles were so tense it felt like they had turned into dead flesh.Oh my god! When will this strange man stop? Why does he keep asking questions that make her heart race?"Maxwell Smith, Oliver Smith..." Kevin lightly parted his lips and softly uttered those two names. He looked at Flora's shocked expression and asked, "Are you referring to these two brothers?""How... how do you know them?" Flora opened her mouth, stuttering, but Kevin remained silent, as if he had no intention of answering her.Flora finally broke down and shouted in frustration, "I'm going crazy! You and these weird people are driving me insane! Can someone please explain what is going on?""Maxwell Smith! Oliver Smith!" Kevin looked at her expression, feeling somewhat remorseful but also cold. Seeing her on the verge of a breakdown, he sneered, "Miss Flora, just like everyone else in the world, you're beyond helplessly foolish!"Flora forced herself to calm down, clutching he
"Distinct traits?" Flora murmured, looking up. "In my opinion, the only difference between the two of them is their hairstyle." Of course, she didn't look at Kevin seriously. How could she dare to stare so boldly at a man?There was one more difference though, Kevin's personality fell perfectly between Maxwell and Oliver. Elegant with a hint of wickedness, his handsome face would alternate between cold and gentle, unpredictable!"Oh, by the way," Flora suddenly remembered something and looked up. "That bandit has a large dragon tattoo on his back with a terrifying mouth wide open. But... how can we see if Kevin has a tattoo on his back?" Her voice trailed off, expressing some helplessness.It was indeed a problem. She couldn't just barge in and ask Kevin to take off his clothes for her to see, right?"That's easy. You can wear fewer clothes, seduce him directly to the bed, and then problem solved," Chloe said sarcastically, waving her greasy hands before rubbing them on Linda's apron.
"Oh? Since when did the hotel upgrade to offer such services? Why doesn't headquarters know about it?"Kevin stared at her with a ridiculous expression, suddenly realizing that he recognized her. Yes, he had seen her yesterday when she entered the hotel, accompanied by Flora!With this understanding, he swallowed the words he was about to say to dismiss her. After all, she was dressed as a hotel staff member. Why was she seducing him here? He wanted to see what this woman was up to!"For the sake of international standards, our hotel has implemented a new program that hasn't been reported to headquarters yet, hah." Chloe explained with a hint of helplessness. This man was intimidating, and he talked too much! Oh! She was starting to regret doing this favor for Flora!"I see. Alright, come here." Kevin acted as if he had just grasped the situation, walked to the side of the bed, and beckoned to her with a smile that had hidden meanings.He accepted the offer, but Chloe suddenly became
Kevin rolled off Chloe and sat beside her, glowering at the intruder. Behind him, Chloe, with her clothes in disarray, caught sight of Mark and a hint of surprise flickered in her eyes. She calmly sat up, swiftly adjusting her clothes that Kevin had torn.Lowering her gaze, she chuckled lightly before lifting her head, leaning towards Kevin under the gaze of Mark, and embracing him, taking the initiative to press her lips against his. Deeply kissing him, she sweetly smiled and said, "Darling, we'll have a chance to continue later. You two can chat, I'll go back first!"After speaking, she glanced revengefully at Mark, stood up from the bed, and continued fixing her hair and clothes as she walked towards the door."Mr. Kevin, here are the documents you wanted. I'll take my leave now," Mark placed the documents in front of Kevin, gritting his teeth, resisting the urge to pummel him, and turned to chase after Chloe!"Chloe! Stop right there!" Mark chased after Chloe, shouting at her retr
Chloe paused with her fork halfway in the air and shook her head after thinking for a moment, "I don't remember. In a moment of emergency, I didn't have the time to study its details.""Oh... why didn't you take a picture of it with your phone?" Flora wailed softly. Oh my God! Finally, she had a chance to see it, and this woman insisted it was a snake, making her doubt whether Kevin was one of the brothers of the Smith Family!"Take a picture? I'm lucky to have come back alive!" Chloe exclaimed with lingering fear. "Darling, do you know Kevin's identity? Heaven help me, if I get fired tomorrow, I won't let you off the hook!""What identity? Isn't he just an assistant in the company?" Flora asked cautiously. As far as she knew, he was just an assistant!"Just an assistant would have been fine, but Mark informed me that that man was the CEO who took office in the company three years ago! Oh my goodness! This is a big mess!" Chloe panicked at the thought.Flora was shocked, staring at he
"Oh, um... she never mentioned it. She suddenly moved to Germany. Maybe she had been planning it for a while but just didn't tell us," Mrs. Smith chuckled. After speaking, she lowered her gaze slightly, avoiding Maxwell's piercing gaze.She felt that it wasn't necessary to tell Maxwell about this question. It wouldn't have any meaning even if she did!"Alright, you should go out early. We'll talk again tonight," Mrs. Smith urged, trying to steer the conversation away from this topic, as she didn't want Maxwell to continue asking.Maxwell had his doubts, but seeing that Mrs. Smith seemed unwilling to discuss the topic further, he didn't press on. He lightly nodded and said, "Then I'll go out first." After speaking, he turned and walked towards the door. Chiyoko, who had been excited all along, hurriedly caught up. It was rare for Maxwell to agree to take her out, and she didn't want to miss this opportunity!Sitting in the car, Maxwell controlled the vehicle expressionlessly. He agreed
After all, he was a handsome man, and Flora felt embarrassed to look at him. Moreover, that face was once something she despised deeply, and looking at it would only bring up painful memories. She lowered her head, holding the documents, preparing to leave.As she had just taken a few steps, Kevin's calm voice suddenly came from behind, "Bring me a glass of water.""Oh, okay," Flora responded professionally, turning back to the water dispenser, pouring a glass of cold water, and walking over to him. Staring at his strong back, she suddenly wanted to see clearly, what kind of tattoo was hidden beneath the blue shirt. Was it as Chloe said, a snake?While Kevin's personality was somewhere between Maxwell and Oliver, that touch of elegance was something she could only see in Oliver. She had never seen Maxwell carry himself elegantly!"Miss Flora, what are you daydreaming about?" Kevin glanced at her disdainfully, mockingly. In front of him, she seemed to enjoy daydreaming, was it just bec
"Who are you exactly?" Flor asked in a stern tone once again, half of her body forced to lie on his legs, no longer struggling or resisting, because she knew it would be futile. Deep down, she was reluctant to let go of his body!"I am your lover, your husband," Maxwell whispered in her ear, holding her body close again and assessing her rapidly changing expression. There was excitement in his heart as he said those words, and he reached out to tidy her clothes."It's not possible..." Flora shook her head in horror and said, "My husband is Henry!"Maxwell glared at her angrily and asked, "I was just about to ask you, how did you become Henry's wife?" The hand that was once caressing her tightened its grip, causing Flora to wince in pain. She furrowed her brows tightly, enduring the pain he inflicted on her."I..." Flora tried to speak, but Maxwell interrupted her, his voice icy as he said, "What has Henry done to you? Tell me!"Flora stared at him, anxious and bewildered, shaking her
In the President's office of the Smith Family Group, Joshua cautiously presented his work report to Maxwell. Ever since Flora died, he no longer dared to be negligent in his work or treat Maxwell with a disdainful attitude out of guilt.He had even quickly married to prove that he had long given up any fantasies about Flora and never had any intention of competing with Maxwell for her.Maxwell quickly skimmed through the report and handed it back to him calmly, saying, "From now on, you can make your own decisions regarding these projects. You don't have to ask me anymore.""Oh... alright." Joshua nodded obediently, clutching the report, and hurriedly walked towards the door. Meeting Maxwell had become a mental torment for him since two years ago. He was afraid, so he always wanted to escape!After Joshua left, Maxwell packed up and prepared to go home. His gaze involuntarily fell on Flora's photo on his desk. He couldn't bear to look away for a long time. Now, going home was no longe
Two years later.It was spring, the season when flowers bloomed. Inside a luxurious mansion, roses were blooming beautifully. Pink petals fluttered, decorating the green grass.Two children, who looked almost identical and like angels, were laughing and playing on the grass, chasing each other in the sea of pink flowers.They appeared to be about two years old, with blinking big eyes and fair skin. The most enchanting feature was their sparkling eyes. The only difference between their little faces was that the boy had a touch of masculinity, while the girl exuded a sweet charm.A nanny stood nearby, carefully watching over them, not daring to look away for a moment, afraid that the two little angels might fall or collide. From the nanny's expression, one could tell that these little angels were of high status.At that moment, the sound of a car approaching could be heard from the entrance. Soon after, a silver car slowly drove into the yard and stopped in front of the main house. The
The sun rose as usual, and after a night of turmoil, the Smith Family mansion remained engulfed in a somber atmosphere. Maxwell sat on the bed, eyes wide open, unable to sleep. With Mrs. Smith's consent, Darren gave him a sleeping pill.This tactic proved effective; Maxwell soon fell asleep, entering a deep slumber until the sunset.Upon waking, Maxwell's gaze was sharp. His first command to Darren was, "Go and bring Flora back."Darren thought he might be delirious from sleep, cautiously saying, "Big Young Master, Miss Flora... she's already...""Even if she's dead, bring her back!" Maxwell roared, abruptly sitting up from the bed. The sudden burst of anger startled everyone present!Even in death, he wanted Flora back by his side. They had promised not to part in this lifetime, yet she left him just days after making that promise. She was his wife, forever!"Maxwell..." Mrs. Smith comforted him by patting his shoulder. "The dead cannot come back to life; don't be like this. Flora is
Maxwell's expression froze, and his anger erupted instantly from within him. He shouted, "What did you say? Say it again if you dare!" Flora was dead? Who dared to say that she was dead? Who dared to let her die?Everyone knew that his shout, his anger, was just an attempt to avoid and mask the truth. What's the use of refusing to admit it? Flora wouldn't come back to life because of this, she wouldn't return to his side because of this!"Big Young Master, this is the truth. Miss Flora was killed by Chiyoko Tokugawa!" Darren reiterated this painful fact, restraining the danger of being beaten up by Maxwell. When he received this news, he was also shocked and immediately came to personally inform Maxwell instead of telling him over the phone. He was afraid that Maxwell might do something irrational and harmful!"It's impossible! Chiyoko doesn't have the guts!" Maxwell shook his head and spoke coldly. His body was already trembling so much that he couldn't stand steadily, leaning agains
Joshua's legs gave way, and his strong body fell to the ground. It took him a while before he struggled to prop himself up and stumbled into the room where Flora was.On the makeshift operating table, he saw Flora lying quietly on the bed, covered in a thin white silk sheet. Her once prominent belly was now flat."Flora!" Joshua's mind went blank as he rushed forward, frantically examining Flora, who lay peacefully on the bed. Was she dead? What had he done? He had caused harm to Flora! Even if he hated her, he had never thought of using such a cruel method to harm her!Trembling, he lifted the thin sheet covering Flora. She was dressed in a set of bright white silk pajamas, stained with traces of blood. Her face had turned deathly pale, and her hands were alternately placed on her flat stomach.Overwhelmed with shock, Joshua fainted. In his last moments of consciousness, he thought about how Maxwell would punish him. Flora might never forgive her even in the afterlife!Philip immedia
Flora stared at Joshua, who unexpectedly appeared in her bedroom. Startled, she took a step back and braced herself against the desk, barely keeping her trembling body steady. She lamely asked, "What did you say?"Joshua anxiously repeated, "Big Brother has been captured by the Yota Gang. He's now being held in a villa in City W. Chiyoko said she wants to see you, otherwise..." Joshua couldn't continue speaking and instead let silence take over. He lowered his head slightly, hiding his emotions beneath his eyelids."It's impossible! Maxwell called me just two hours ago!" Flora screamed, her eyes red and her body trembling slightly. It was unclear whether she was angry or devastated. She stared fixedly at Joshua with wide eyes, as if he was lying, intentionally deceiving her. How could Maxwell, who was so cautious, fall into someone else's hands so easily? She didn't believe it!Joshua urgently pressed his finger against her lips and said, "Flora, please don't be so loud. If my mom hea
Chiyoko stood at the entrance of the Smith Family Group building, looking up at the luxurious structure in front of her. In the end, she couldn't control her actions and walked into the lobby.The receptionist stood up and politely smiled at her, saying, "Hello, miss. How can I assist you?" Although her tone was polite, her gaze couldn't help but wander over Chiyoko's body.Having adapted to this mixture of surprise and contempt over the past two days, Chiyoko was no longer as sensitive. She lifted her golden-framed glasses and calmly said, "Could you please find Maxwell for me?"The receptionist lowered her head apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Chiyoko. Mr. Maxwell has instructed that due to your recent high-profile appearances, to avoid any scandals, he is unable to meet with you in the short term."The receptionist's words were polite, but the disdain in her tone was hard to conceal. Chiyoko could naturally sense it, causing her anger to flare up. She couldn't believe that
Flora, startled, instinctively asked, "Who is it?" As soon as she saw a couple naked on the screen, she quickly closed the laptop, without closely examining who it was. Now, after Kevin mentioned it, she was really curious."Just see for yourself," Kevin chuckled.Flora opened the laptop again, continuing to watch the embarrassing scene that made her blush. When she saw the figures clearly, her face was covered with a look of shock.Rubbing her eyes vigorously, yes, it was indeed Chiyoko and Philip! It was them? Flora asked in astonishment, looking at the silent phone, "How do you have... um... this kind of video with them?""It's everywhere on the internet now. I just randomly downloaded it from a website, and the first thing I thought of was to show it to you. Aren't I so considerate?" Kevin proudly invited attention.Flora slapped her flushed and heated face with her hand, unkindly saying, "Although it is indeed surprising, you didn't have to think of showing it to me first.""It's
