Flora instinctively leaned back and stared at him, asking in a daze, "What do you want to do for me?" His smile looked so unreal! It made her feel uneasy. "I will avenge you," Kevin glanced at the Sunshine Hotel building and said. Flora looked at him in surprise, observing him. He wanted to avenge her? Was he this kind-hearted? "How?" she asked curiously. What kind of trick was he playing again? "Kill him!" Kevin said those words while keeping a smile on his face, as if killing someone was a trivial matter, one that didn't even warrant blinking an eye. "Kill him?" Flora asked, dumbfounded, unable to grasp the concept behind those words for a moment. It wasn't until Kevin nodded that she finally reacted, but she didn't answer him. Kevin opened his specially designed notebook and began effortlessly typing away with his ten fingers. Flora leaned against the car door, staring at him with a mixture of fear and disbelief. He was going to help her kill Maxwell? She should be happy about
"Damn it! You're such a troublemaker!" Maxwell muttered under his breath as he dragged the terrified Flora towards the nearest exit. He should have let her go and fend for herself, but his grip on her hand remained firm, unable to let go. Did he not want her to die? He didn't even care that she might drag him down! If something happened to him today, it would be because of her inexplicably complex feelings! "Where is the emergency exit?" Maxwell asked coldly. Flora, who had a moment of clarity upon hearing those words, pointed in another direction and said, "Over there, follow me." She grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the direction of the emergency exit. However, instead of leading him to the safety door, Flora led him into the employees' break room. Several lazy employees were startled by their intrusion. Before they could utter a word of complaint, their attention was captivated by the astonishingly handsome Maxwell, their faces filled with both surprise and admiration. M
"Well, then... Why did you come to the 30th floor?" Flora asked in astonishment. Did he know that someone wanted to kill him? Then didn't she just do something incredibly stupid? And she even courageously came out to save him. Oh my god!"I just came up to show my face, considering the enthusiastic invitation from those pesky Japanese. Who knew..." he laughed, who knew she would come in for no reason and ruin his whole plan! He should have been angry, but there was something unexpected that made him even more delighted, and that was finally seeing this audacious woman."Why... didn't you say it earlier?" Flora murmured, her face full of frustration. Kevin! That damn bastard! It was because of him, not his nonsense, that she wouldn't have come back!"What? Having regrets now?" Maxwell took a step forward, one hand gripping her slender waist, pulling her into his embrace, closely examining her tearful face.Flora nodded, "I regret it!" She truly regretted it, she was filled with remorse
"You seem eager to stay by his side," Maxwell raised an eyebrow.To provoke him, Flora gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, staying by his side is a thousand times better than staying by yours!""Really?" Maxwell lifted her from the floor, staring at her intensively. "Alright then, I'll let you continue to stay by his side, continue to be his assistant!""Really?" Flora stared at him in disbelief, his furious expression sending shivers down her spine. His sudden change of heart and this expression didn't seem like he had any intention of letting her go. Whatever he was planning, it was still better than staying at the Smith Family mansion. Let him have it!"Of course it's true!" Maxwell sneered, his mind quietly calculating something. Kevin! What was he up to? He couldn't wait to find out!While Flora was still in doubt, the sound of a key unlocking the door suddenly came from the entrance, and a group of ladies who had just left rushed in. They surrounded Maxwell, pushing Flora to a cor
"Write it down on this piece of paper," the officer pushed a memo paper in front of her.Flora obediently wrote down the name 'Irma Brown'."Check it online," Frank Garcia ordered flatly, not understanding why he had to deal with this trivial matter. Perhaps Flora's personality reminded him of someone, with the same playful and cute demeanor.As soon as she heard the word 'check', Flora felt panicked. 'Irma Brown' was a name Chloe made up on the spot to anger Miss Alma. There was no way to verify it online. But if she changed her mind and said that she's not called Irma Brown, wouldn't that be a bit misleading?"Take out your ID card," the officer stared at Flora and ordered."I forgot to bring it," Flora answered cautiously."Recite your ID card number," the officer reluctantly changed his tone because of Frank Garcia's presence."I can't remember," Flora's voice was as small as a mosquito's, instinctively grabbing her head, looking like she was planning to escape like a funny charac
The next day, when Flora arrived at the hotel, she heard a girl calling her from behind, saying, "Irma Brown, Mr. Kevin wants you to go and find him when you start work. Don't forget, I'm leaving."Flora stopped in her tracks, didn't turn around, and angrily gritted her teeth, "Kevin! Tell him to go..." Suddenly, an icy smell came from behind, making Flora shiver, and she quickly turned around.When she turned around, she came face to face with Kevin's gloomy handsome face. She couldn't bring herself to say the word 'die' that she had held in her mouth; instead, she had to swallow it back, looking somewhat stunned at the unexpected appearance of Kevin behind her!How did he end up on the 25th floor? And why did he suddenly appear behind her like a ghost? The girl who had just called out to her heard her bold words and saw Kevin, so she turned and fled. As she left, she even gave Flora a sympathetic look. In Flora's eyes, it seemed like it was time for her to pack up and go home.Flora
Inside the Smith Family mansion, a well-dressed man walked with steady steps toward Maxwell's study. After a few knocks on the door, he pushed it open and walked in.Standing in front of Maxwell who was busy working, he respectfully spoke, "Big Young Master, Kevin Davis' information has been investigated. Do you want to review it now?"The man spoke cautiously. Every time he appeared in front of Maxwell, he was always serious. Today, unexpectedly, there was an unusual expression on his face."Darren, did Flora arrive at work on time today?" Maxwell didn't answer his question but instead asked about Flora.Darren nodded, "Yes, she went in, and everything seemed normal."Hearing his words, a moment of relief washed over Maxwell.If she went to work, that meant she hadn't been arrested. For some reason, he was strangely worried that she might end up being thrown into jail. Perhaps it was because she had foolishly returned to the hotel for his sake and ended up getting into so much troubl
"I was just curious, so I asked you," Maxwell replied with a smile. His mind was racing rapidly. 25 years ago, was it really 25 years ago that he was adopted? How was that possible!?Mrs. Davis and Kevin had ulterior motives for their return. No wonder he felt something strange in Mrs. Davis' expression that day, and there was an eerie feeling behind her smile! So, that's it...!"Maxwell, is there anything else? If not, I'll leave first." Mrs. Smith stood up from her chair, looked herself up and down in the mirror, and showed a satisfied expression."Aunt..." Maxwell called out to her, but he opened his mouth and couldn't say anything. He couldn't understand the purpose of Mrs. Davis asking Mrs. Smith to meet Kevin. So, he couldn't let Mrs. Smith go!Mrs. Smith finally noticed his abnormality and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Maxwell, did something happen?"Maxwell shook his head and looked Mrs. Smith in the eye, solemnly saying, "Aunt, can you please not go to the Davis house an
"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
