On the hospital bed, Craig was looking at Heather.Heather quickly said, "You're awake. The doctor said you have a broken rib, and the facilities here are not great. I've informed Jay. He will come to take you back soon. Just bear with it for now."Craig nodded lightly. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed the bruises on Heather's wrist. His gaze sharpened instantly.Heather paused for a moment. She followed his gaze to her wrist and subconsciously pulled her hand back.The shirt she borrowed from the landlord was too short. It didn't cover the marks on her wrist.Seeing that Heather had borrowed someone else's clothes and had bruises on her wrist, it didn't take much for one to guess what had happened."He dared do that to you?" Craig's voice was cold.Taken aback, Heather frowned. "You shouldn't have said those things to Tyrone today.""I couldn't stand to see him treat you like that."In the past, he believed she was safer by Tyrone's side, but he never expect
With such deep marks, how could it not hurt?Ivy was furious. "Did Tyrone abuse you? Who does he think he is to treat you like this? I'm going to find him! Seth, let's go to Magnolia Creek!""We can't go!" Heather quickly held her back.Ivy's beautiful face looked angry. "Hattie, you don't need to fear him. With me there, I dare him to lay a hand on you!""Please calm down first!"Seth dared not let her actually go and cause trouble with Tyrone, so he looked at Heather with a frown. "Hattie, what happened between you and Tyrone?"Since Heather had called Ivy instead of Tyrone after she'd arrived at the airport, it evident that she'd had a falling out with Tyrone.Sighing, Seth tried to mediate. "Tyrone dotes on you. No matter what mistake you've made, apologize to him nicely. He won't really be mad at you—""I broke up with Tyrone."Seth almost bit his tongue, looking bewildered. "You broke up with him? Did Tyrone dump you?"It couldn't be. Wasn't Tyrone infatuated with Heath
Heather hadn't terminated the rental contract of her previous apartment. So, Seth took her home, and Ivy, who'd taken a break from filming these days, stayed behind to take care of her.In the evening, after Heather had finished showering, she lay down on her familiar small bed, feeling strange and disoriented."Hattie, do you really not need to go to the hospital for your injuries?" Ivy looked at Heather's foot with concern."There's no need. When we were in town, Tyrone had the doctor treat me. It's not serious; I just need to rest for a few days," Heather replied.Ivy's eyes shimmered as she sat down on the bed, looking at Heather intently. "Hattie, are you really going to break up with Tyrone?"Heather was taken aback for a moment. She couldn't help but find it amusing. "This isn't a joke. Is there such a thing as a fake breakup?""But I feel like Tyrone is really good to you. If he got so angry when he found out about your relationship with Craig, he must be jealous! Hattie,
A deafening crash sounded from upstair.Both Lucy and Caleb were startled, and they quickly ran upstairs.They saw Tyrone standing inside the master bedroom, looking particularly menacing. His clenched fist oozed blood, and his breathing was slightly ragged.Heather's belongings were scattered all over the floor."Oh my, Mr. Elkin, your hand is injured!" Lucy hurried into the room, opening a drawer and taking out the first aid kit. "I remember Ms. Sutton also has one in her room..."Before she could finish her sentence, Lucy suddenly felt the terrifying chill. Her heart skipped a beat. As she turned her head, she saw Tyrone staring at her with a horrifying gaze, sending shivers down her spine.Tyrone had said he didn't want to hear Heather's name!Although Lucy had seen Tyrone and Heather fight before, it had never been this bad. Feeling anxious, she said, "Mr. Elkin, your hand is injured. Let me treat the wound for you first."As if ignoring her, Tyrone turned to Caleb with a
The thought of running into Tyrone upon returning made Heather inexplicably nervous.Not wanting to bump into him, she thought for a moment and then called Lucy, asking her to help pack her luggage."Ms. Sutton, I am unwell and have taken a few days off to rest at home. I'm not at Magnolia Creek these days, so I apologize that I can't help you pack your luggage," Lucy said.Heather was surprised. "Is your illness serious?""Oh, it's not serious. Thank you for your concern, Ms. Sutton."After a pause, Lucy decided to give Heather a heads-up. "Ms. Sutton, you had such a big argument with Mr. Elkin this time. When you come back, have a talk with him. Clear up any misunderstandings between the two of you. You really made Mr. Elkin angry this time, and it's not good for you."After a moment of silence, Heather whispered, "Lucy, thank you for your concern. Take care of yourself and get well soon. I'll hang up now."With that, she hung up the phone, feeling a bit dejected.Lucy was si
Tyrone narrowed his eyes and smirked. "I stopped Snyder Corporation's project, and now she can't stand it anymore. She purposely wanted you to inform me!"Caleb was confused. He didn't think Heather meant that. Just now, she hadn't mentioned Tyrone at all. Moreover, she'd specifically chosen to go to Magnolia Creek on a weekday morning. Wasn't that to purposely avoid bumping into Tyrone?Caleb really wanted to tell Tyrone that he was overthinking a bit too much. But seeing Tyrone's mood improve slightly for the first time after a few days, Caleb didn't dare to offend him at this moment. He could only agree, saying, "Ms. Sutton definitely meant that.""Of course she did!"The chilling air surrounding Tyrone dissipated slightly. He casually pushed aside the documents and stretched out on the couch. A glint of darkness flashed in his eyes.The Snyder family still relied on her. Only he could give her support, so she had to come back to him. He wanted to see what that woman would
Heather watched anxiously as the cursor on the laptop screen kept spinning in circles.Was the laptop broken?Little did she know this laptop had suffered some damage last night. Someone had thrown and broken it, so of course it wouldn't start.Afraid that Tyrone might think she wanted to stay longer here, Heather awkwardly explained to him, "I'll be done soon."Tyrone remained silent. He walked over to the couch and casually wiped his hair with the towel. His dark eyes ran down her figure from top to bottom.He thought she was purposely standing that way to show off her good figure to him. However, the thought that she'd left him for a man who'd dumped her made Tyrone's gaze turn colder.Did she think that by intentionally delaying things, he would start talking to her? If she didn't apologize properly today, he wouldn't forgive her!Neither of them spoke. The atmosphere in the room became unbearably tense because of Tyrone's presence.Heather felt like she was sitting on pi
"Do you really know how to fix it?" After watching Tyrone work on the laptop for a while without any signs of improvement, Heather began to doubt his abilities.As she spoke, her warm breath brushed against Tyrone. His body stiffened up slightly, and he subconsciously tightened his grip on the mouse.At that moment, a loud rumble sounded from Tyrone's stomach, and his handsome face tightened."Are you hungry?" Heather asked subconsciously.As she said that, she realized that it was inappropriate to ask such a question given their current relationship.Tyrone replied coldly, "Yeah, I'm hungry. Go make me some food!" It had been a long time since he had eaten a meal she had cooked."Huh?"Make food for him? Heather had thought that he'd just tell her to leave.Tyrone's gaze turned icy. "What? I'm fixing the laptop for you, aren't I? Is it too much to ask you to make some food for me?"He paused. "I don't want to fix the laptop while I'm hungry. Do you not want your documents any
