Ethan frowned at Jazzie and said, "Why are you crying instead of Evelyn if her partner is the one who is in a vegetative state? Everyone might assume that the two of you are having an affair if you do so."His voice brimmed with jealousy when he said that.Those words made Jazzie so angry that she couldn't help kicking him again. She complained, "Ethan Xavier, will it kill you to shut up? Why must you say such infuriating words? In fact, how are you still alive? Why hasn't someone killed you in a fit of anger yet?"Ethan grinned mischievously and replied, "If I die, no one will be around to piss you off. Won't that break your heart?"Jazzie nearly fainted from anger.She felt as though the two of them were destined to be enemies.She glared at Ethan and then smiled nonchalantly. After that, she said, "I'm not a fool, so why would I ever be heartbroken for you?"As soon as she finished saying that, she made her way to Evelyn's side. Holding Evelyn's hand, Jazzie promised, "Don't
Davina Teller appeared in trouble when she looked at Ethan.Ethan was in a hurry, so he didn't even think about it before he agreed to help. "Get in the car," said Ethan.Davina's heart started to thump at his consent. She couldn't help her fingers trembling a little as she opened the passenger door. She was about to get in the car when she heard Ethan order, "Get in the back seat."Davina was stunned momentarily. She smiled and replied, "Have you forgotten that I get carsick if I sit at the back? I thought you knew that since we were studying together at the university."Ethan didn't even spare her a glance. His gaze was fixed on Jazzie.When he saw Jazzie staggering toward the entrance and reaching out to hail a cab, he immediately ordered, "Get in quick!"He didn't wait until Davina had settled in. He immediately stepped on the gas.It scared Davina so much that she quickly grabbed the armrest. She was a little angry at him when she looked at him and complained, "Slow dow
Rumor had it that Ethan enjoyed partying at clubs.Thinking that something was about to happen, Davina's heart began thumping even faster.Her face began blushing and feeling hot as well.Unfortunately, she heard Ethan saying something else in the next second. "The train station is right there," said Ethan. "I'll drop you off there since I have to do something today."After saying that, Ethan hit the brakes and unlocked the door. He nodded at Davina to gesture for her to get out of the car.Snapping out of her fantasy, Davina secretly gritted her teeth.The smile on her face stiffened as well. "Okay," replied Davina. "Drive safely, Ethan."She got out of the car unwillingly and noted how Ethan never even said goodbye. He left just like that.That infuriated Davina so much that she stomped a little. The warm gaze in her eyes instantly turned sinister.Ethan drove quickly. In less than ten minutes, he caught up with the car Jazzie was in.The car stopped outside a club.Benjam
Hearing Ezra's response made Ethan chuckle nonchalantly. He replied, "That's not possible. How can I possibly be in love with her? The woman of my dreams is sweet and graceful. She is nothing like the person I was talking about."The person I'm talking about has a sharp tongue and is so violent. I'd rather stay single forever than be with her."It seems you have learned nothing from your marriage. You can't even figure out something so simple. You might as well get a divorce."Ezra chuckled in exasperation and said, "Even a dumb mutt can tell that you're into Jazzie, so don't bother denying it to me.""You can tell?""Of course."While at ease, Ethan refuted, "Then you're an idiot."He hung up the call mercilessly and cussed angrily at Ezra.Ethan's carefree smile remained even as he fished a cigarette out of his pocket.There was no way he was in love with Jazzie. He was simply taking care of her because she was Evelyn's best friend. He was certain that he wouldn't have cared
Chuck tapped his chest and smiled proudly. After that, he bragged, "Ever heard of Ally Productions? It's the biggest production company in the country, and I am their go-to director. I have what it takes to turn an extra on set into the biggest star within a day."Who the hell are you? Do you have what it takes to compete against me? What resources can you offer her? That pretty face of yours is useless. Only real power, like the one I hold, can make a difference."Ethan remained at ease and chuckled. "Wow, how intimidating," said Ethan sarcastically. "I'm so scared that I can't even speak anymore.""If you know what's good for you, leave her to me. I will forgive you for butting in. If not, I will have to be merciless."Ethan arched his brows and challenged, "Oh, what if I still refuse to do so?""Then you have this coming," replied Chuck. He shot a look at the bodyguard behind him. The latter went after Ethan right away.Unfortunately, Ethan landed a kick between the bodyguard'
Jazzie was so surprised that her eyes instantly bulged. It took over ten seconds before she regained her senses and realized that he had kissed her.Worse still, the kiss was more than just a peck. Ethan even used his tongue.Jazzie cussed internally when she thought about how that was her first kiss and how Ethan had essentially stolen it.It infuriated her so much that she gave it her all as she bit his lips. It hurt him so much that he let her go right away."Jazzie Hoffman, are you a dog?""I was about to ask you the same question. Why did you kiss me? How is the way you behave any different from that of the pervert earlier?"Ethan wiped the blood off his lips and chuckled for a bit. He replied, "I saved you earlier. Is it too much to ask for a favor in return?""That is not a favor, you ass. Don't assume that I'll be afraid of you simply because you are the heir to Ally Productions. I can sue you for harassment, you know?""You heartless little thing. It's bad enough tha
Chester mercilessly gripped Iris' collar and threw her onto the floor.His eyes glowed with fury and hatred. There wasn't even a hint of pity in his gaze."Iris, let me be clear right now. You had better pray that Warren wakes up soon. If he dies, you will die with him!"Iris immediately shook her head in terror. She begged in tears, "Chester, this is all my fault. All I wanted was to scare you for a bit. I never thought that the fire would spread so quickly. I didn't realize that Warren would get hurt because of me."I am so sorry. Please let me see how he is. I carried him in my womb for nine months, after all. Knowing that he is unconscious in the hospital breaks my heart."Chester grabbed her by her neck and choked her. Through gritted teeth, he said, "Oh, you're heartbroken, are you? You blame yourself so much that your guilt is driving you insane, huh? Good! My son is gravely wounded and his survival is still hanging in the balance."Why should I let you lead a good life un
Warren looked calm when he replied, "Release the bait. Wait for the big fish to bite."He wanted to see who was powerful enough to rally the four most prominent families in the city to go after the Larkin Corporation.When Warren hung up, he realized Evelyn was about to open the door and leave.He quickly asked, "Where are you going?"Evelyn turned around and smiled at him before replying, "I'm going to visit Mrs. Potter. You and Mr. Larkin can talk."Warren's gaze brimmed with sadness, and his voice carried a hint of sorrow."Mrs. Larkin, I'm in a vegetative state and need you to take care of me. Are you sure you want to leave me alone to hang out with another man?"Evelyn arched her brows and replied, "The two of you need to discuss matters regarding the company. It'd be inappropriate for me to stay. I'll be right back."She didn't wait for a response from Warren before she turned around and left.Chester got up immediately after. He said coolly, "You don't really need me to
