The anniversary party was bustling with guests. While half of them mingled in small groups, enjoying appetizers with wine or juices, the rest were captivated by the intriguing interaction between the Wrights and Adrian King.Everyone's expressions varied. Some were simply dumbfounded, a good number
'What's happening?' Leni wondered, seething with anger at the way she was being treated. She couldn't grasp why Kyle Wright was backing Adrian, especially after all her efforts to tarnish his reputation. It was as if her status as an Eros meant nothing!Wasn't it a practice for the powerful and weal
When Leni turned to the Kings, she saw Tonet point at Adrian, Abner, and Anthony, saying, "That means you will be kicked out of the company, officially!""Yes," Nolan echoed. "Anthony, Abner, Adrian, we agreed that you would sell your shares if Fredrick secures the hundred-billion-dollar project fro
“I don’t understand!” Fredrick screamed. His face looked tense as he turned to Leni and called, “Leni? What is going on?”Leni quickly approached Charles and asked, “Dad? I meant for you to give the project to Fredrick, not Adrian.”“This is a big mistake, everyone,” Leni quickly laughed and faced t
Clint had been logged in to Adrian's access the whole time. He navigated the CEO’s network folders."Hidden within a secret folder, Fredrick had kept all the information and had probably forgotten about it, thinking he had gotten away with it all these years," Adrian suggested. "What the—" Fredrick
As Adrian finished speaking, the venue erupted in thunderous applause. From the stage, he could see Abner and Anthony with tears in their eyes, their pride unmistakable.‘I’m proud of you,’ Adrian saw Anthony silently mouth the words, and it tugged at his heart. There was no greater reward than rece
Charles had no intention of blaming Leni. Despite her unpleasant behavior, she appeared to be innocent of Ramona and Calvin's schemes. However, his plans changed when he heard Leni call his daughter a whore!He wasn't supposed to show up when he did earlier. The truth was that Charles prematurely mo
After seeing all their rivals escorted out of the ballroom, Riley watched as Adrian announced, "I know this is all very shocking for most of you and at some point frightening, but rest assured; the changes can only get better from here.""The growth of the King's Medical Center is a testament to tha
Dawn shook her head. “Let’s start with the good news.”“We have actual clothes. I found two of your shorts in here. They probably got mixed in with mine,” Maxwell said. “But the only shirts we have are these.”He pulled out one extra-large T-shirt with a print that read: [I Put the ‘Max’ in Maximum
Dawn felt the pain, but as soon as Maxwell pinned his bare body against her, the pleasure returned. The fact that they were skin-to-skin gave her a different level of happiness.“Max,” Dawn shut her eyes, noting how it felt to have something long and big inside her.It honestly scared her at first,
“Mmmm.” He heard Dawn react.He continued to kiss her jaw, then her neck. He gave her soft bites, licking a few parts of her skin while slowly moving down.“You smell so good, Noodle,” he said softly.When he stared at her breasts, his breathing hitched. He had been looking forward to getting his mo
Standing in front of Maxwell was a very slender Dawn wearing sexy, soft pink silk nightwear that flowed a few inches below her hip.And Dawn? She was covering herself with her hands. Her fair skin was on full display—from her chest, arms, and long legs. Her face was red, and she averted his gaze. Sh
By Friday, Maxwell still drove Dawn to the hospital. They had lunch together and came home together.Dawn was preparing to give a little more to their relationship—because why not? They had the ultimate green light—not just a nod, not just a wink. It was like their mothers were holding up signs: “GO
Yes, they welcomed Thomas into the house, but no, he wasn’t comfortable in any way.He was standing before Dawn while she was seated on the couch.And the entire time, Maxwell paced around the living room, repeatedly thrusting his fist into his palm as a warning. Mina stood behind them, throwing dag
“Thank you, Mrs. Hamilton. I’m really glad we talked,” Dawn said.But, it wasn’t just Mrs. Hamilton. At 10 a.m., Andi walked up to her desk.“Wow, I saw you and Maxwell Turner kissing outside. I—” she gulped, “I’m sorry. He’s hot, by the way. You’re so lucky.”Dawn just stared at her, then calmly re
Luxford Iron Pulse was taking a one-week break. So, many of the players were in their hometowns, resting and spending time with family.Since Maxwell was free, he brought Dawn to work on his motorbike.Dawn was fixing her hair after removing her helmet in the parking area. She was about to head into
Maxwell was so confused. When did they kiss before?“I was twelve, and your mom invited us over for her birthday. We were hanging out in your room when you fell asleep,” Dawn began.“You didn’t,” Maxwell reacted, his heart swelling. “Fuck.”She pouted and admitted, “I did.”“That barely counts, but
