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
As Heather was cooking, she suddenly felt a strong gaze on her and turned to see Tyrone standing in the kitchen.Their eyes met, and Tyrone's gaze instantly turned cold.Heather was taken aback. His expression didn't seem like it belonged to someone who was hungry for food, but someone who was hungry for her. He was definitely deliberately torturing her.She averted her gaze, ladled the soup into a bowl, and placed it on the dining table. "The food is ready. You can eat now. Is the laptop fixed?""Yeah," Tyrone said coldly."Then go ahead and eat first. I'll work on the documents." Hearing that the laptop was fixed, she turned and headed upstairs.Tyrone frowned disapprovingly. Wasn't she supposed to stay and keep him company and try to ask for forgiveness?"Mr. Elkin, Ms. Sutton put a lot of effort into cooking for you just now. She made dishes you like, so she must care about you. You should have a good talk with her later," Lucy said respectfully and nervously.Tyrone glan
As Heather finished speaking, she picked up her suitcase and intended to leave.Once, she'd been willing to make a deal with him for the Snyder family, but now she was determined to cut ties with him completely.She'd even used him to save someone's life before. But now that he had no value to her, she wanted to kick him away. When she was by his side, she'd even thought of other men. What did she take him for?Just as Heather was about to pass by him, Tyrone suddenly grabbed the handle of her suitcase."Heather, what makes you think I will let you go?" Tyrone's icy voice was terrifyingly menacing.Heather looked stunned. "Tyrone, you said that once I walked out that door, we'd be completely done!"They had already broken up. What did he want now?Tyrone's gaze turned sharp, and suddenly he kicked open the suitcase.Heather was startled. Before she could react, Tyrone forcefully grabbed her wrist and pinned her against the wall. His gaze was cold and intimidating."Heather, am
The sound of rustling leaves surrounded them as the wind blew.The exquisite ivory-carved architectural model in Heather's hands felt like it weighed as much as the world itself. Tyrone had gifted her a lot of valuable things in the past. However, this architectural model seemed to be something completely different.She wondered why he'd get it for her.Heather's eyes shuddered before she gave the architectural model back to Caleb. "It's very beautiful. Please thank him on my behalf. Also, please come and find me later so I can transfer the title transfer agreement as soon as possible."After Heather finished speaking, she then picked up her luggage and left.Caleb was shocked. Heather had always been quite soft-hearted. He'd thought she'd seek Tyrone out and make peace after listening to those touching words. He'd never expected her to choose to leave despite everything in the end. Since when had she been so cold-hearted?…Once Heather was outside the gate, Ivy helped her
Heather was deep in thoughts as she approached the door.Behind her, Craig opened his mouth, wanting to tell her to stay. However, he didn't know what kind of excuse he should use.If he hadn't used George as an excuse, Heather wouldn't even have come to see him at the hospital.Heather left the ward, only to encounter Selena, who was coming over to see Craig. "Heather! You're here to seduce my husband again!"Selena walked to her angrily and raised her hand, wanting to slap Heather.Heather narrowed her eyes and caught Selena's wrist in midair.She furrowed her eyebrows and said, "I'm here to see Craig for something serious. Are you really that insecure, Ms. Huntington? Do you think a few words from me is enough to seduce him?"Selena's expression froze for a moment, then she smiled coldly. "Oh, Heather. How can you still be so arrogant when Uncle Ty is no longer backing you? Crushing you is easier than crushing an ant now."Heather caught the meaning behind her words and look
