However, as soon as Caleb said those words, Tyrone became even more pensive.Heather was doing it for his own good?Ha! How considerate of her!When Caleb saw Tyrone's brooding face, he regretted what he'd just said. Had he said something wrong?With his thin lips tightly pressed together, Tyrone took out his phone, only to realize it was switched off.He turned it on. There was nothing. There were no missed calls or messages.Tyrone chuckled.Seeing him smile, Caleb breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked, "Mr. Elkin, did Ms. Sutton call you?""Did she call me? No!" Tyrone's expression suddenly turned a terrifying one. He forced the words out coldly through gritted teeth. He stared furiously at the phone screen, which showed no notifications.Tyrone had a gut feeling that if he didn't reach out to Heather, that woman would never contact him!The veins in his tightly clenched hand bulged, as if he wanted to crush the phone. There was suffocating air in the car.Caleb t
Outside that café by the roadside, there was a white coffee table by the floor-to-ceiling window.On the table, there was a vase with a pink camellia. The delicate flowers were vivid and alluring under the sunlight. However, the flowers were overshadowed by the woman seated next to it.Heather was dressed in a light gray turtleneck sweater and a brown coat. Her soft hair cascaded down her back, with a few strands gently touching her face. It was as pretty as a painting.She was holding a cup of water and conversing with Craig, who was seated across from her. Her expression was focused.Craig was in a black suit, listening attentively to Heather.The warm autumn sun shone on them. The scene was unbelievably picturesque.Yet, to Tyrone, the scene stung badly. Sitting in the car, his judgmental gaze fixed on them. The gloomy look on his face was terrifying!For a week, she hadn't called him. Yet, here she was, dressed to the nines, meeting another man!"That's Ms. Sutton! What? An
Jay was consumed by the thoughts of revenge, to the point of sending people to the hospital to kidnap Whitney. With such intention for vengeance, he might do something even crazier.Heather didn't want any trouble, which was why she'd wanted to meet with Craig to tell him about this.Craig broke the silence. His tone was calm but chilly. "You asked me to meet you just to tell me this?"Heather sat there with a complicated look flickering in her eyes.She had wanted to ask him how he had been lately, but given their relationship, it didn't seem appropriate to ask."I understand your feelings of resentment, but since Thomas is planning to sue you, I believe he may not be the one responsible for your father's death. "Maybe you've made a mistake. I assume you wouldn't want to target the wrong person as well, right?"Heather looked at Craig."Did Thomas tell you this? Do you believe everything he said?" Craig's gaze turned colder, and his tone became icy and assertive.Heather fro
"Heather!" Someone called out to her in a chilly tone.Heather paused and turned around. It was Craig. He said coldly, "Since you've chosen to be with Tyrone, stay by his side and don't disturb me anymore! Don't come near me in the future. I don't want to see you again!"Heather looked at Craig with her teary eyes and pursed her lips. "I also wish you and your wife a long and happy marriage!"With that, she left without looking back.Craig sat in his seat, staring coldly at Heather's retreating figure. There was a fleeting hint of pain in his gaze. He had once said he could protect her, but now, being with him would only put her in a dangerous situation.One thing Heather said was true. If she was with Tyrone, Jay couldn't harm her. The man he had once scorned was now the only one who could protect her.Craig coolly looked through the floor-to-ceiling window, watching Heather bend and get into a cab on the roadside.Although he should hate her and take revenge on her, when h
Heather suddenly felt a reluctance to get into the car. She had a strong intuition that nothing good would come from getting in."Ms. Sutton, please get in the car quickly," Caleb urged her.Since she was already there, she couldn't leave. Heather bent over and got into the car.Soon enough, they were on the road. The oppressive vibe inside the car grew even stronger.Tyrone continued to ignore Heather, sitting there as if she were invisible. She turned to look at him and asked, "How did you know I was in that cab?"Tyrone's gaze was cold. He gave Heather a side glance and sneered, "What? Don't you think I can see?"Heather was taken aback. Did he really need to be so sarcastic? It seemed like he was fuming.Knowing that he was in a bad mood, Heather did not want to waste her time entertaining him further. She said nothing and turned her head to look out of the window.Beside her, Tyrone gazed coldly at her delicate side profile.They hadn't seen each other for many days yet s
Tyrone remained silent. The driver, of course, did not dare stop the car. He pretended not to hear and continued driving.Caleb almost wanted to jump out of the car whens Tyrone and Heather started arguing. He quickly intervened, "Ms. Sutton, we saw you at the café. Why were you with Craig from the Simpson family?""You saw me at the café?" Heather's heart skipped a beat."Yes, we happened to pass by." Caleb paused for a second and continued, "Ms. Sutton, did Craig ask to meet you to get close to Mr. Elkin through you?"Heather was taken aback and turned to look at Tyrone.So, she wasn't mistaken when she'd felt like she'd been watched at the café. Tyrone had seen her with Craig and had been observing them the whole time!They thought Craig was meeting her for business purposes, trying to get close to Tyrone through her.Tyrone believed she was scheming against him, hence his anger and questioning. Was that what he wanted her to explain?Heather said with determination in her e
When Heather regained her composure, she bit her lip, mixed emotion flashed through her eyes.She was just a toy that Tyrone kept around to expend his energy.When Tyrone was in a good mood, he would tease her. When he was in a bad mood, he would use her to alleviate his boredom. When he was in need of it, he would use her to vent out his sexual frustration.Those were the only uses she had.So what if he was throwing a temper tantrum? What right did she have to be upset about it?Heather looked down and didn't look at Tyrone, and said faintly, "Can you let me go first? I'm not feeling comfortable."The car stopped at this time, and Caleb respectfully notified him, "Mr. Elkin, we're here."Heather turned and looked outside the car window. There was a beautiful, white Western-style building not far away. "What is that?""That's… Ms. Sutton, Mr. Elkin is having a meeting today. That's where he'll be having his meeting," Caleb answered with a smile.The reason he said that was be
"You can't…" Heather pushed Tyrone away and wanted to say something nervously, but her lips were quickly sealed by his lips. All she would do was murmur against them."I can't?" Tyrone raised his eyebrow unhappily. Normally, he wouldn't allow her to refuse this."I'm on my period." Heather finally found a chance to speak as she gasped for air.Tyrone was speechless. His expression darkened, and he stopped. His fingers moved and touched a sanitary pad under her, and he instantly lost interest.He said nothing more and pulled his hand out. He also tidied up Heather's outfit a little and held her in his arms. He then rolled down the car window to cool himself down.Heather sighed in relief. It was fortunate that she really was on her period. Otherwise, Tyrone would have seriously ignored her wishes.At this time, Tyrone's phone rang. He took his phone out, and the name "Janine Seel" flashed on the screen.Tyrone frowned and immediately hung up without even picking it up."I need t
