Heather smiled and said mockingly, "I never said you two met today, so why did you mention that it was today?"Selena was dumbfounded.She was eager to prove that Heather's recording was fake, but she accidentally slipped up."I didn't mean to... I just... spoke too quickly..."Selena desperately tried to find an excuse for herself, but she couldn't come up with a convincing excuse."Selena! You bitch! You actually wanted to harm me!"At that moment, a man's angry roar was suddenly heard.Several bodyguards dragged the man up to the top floor. The man's eyes were filled with resentment, as if he wanted to kill Selena. "You terrible woman! You tricked me into going back and waiting for the money, just to buy yourself time and have me killed! You heartless woman, I won't let you off the hook!"Several policemen appeared and approached Selena. "Ms. Huntington, we now suspect you are involved in a murder case. Here is your arrest warrant. Please cooperate and come with us for furth
"I'm fine," Heather said in a flat tone. "If there's nothing else, I'll get going..."Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly felt a familiar suffocating atmosphere in the air.Heather subconsciously turned around and indeed saw Tyrone walking toward them from a few meters away. His gaze was as cold as ice.Heather was worried. If Tyrone saw her with Craig, he would probably explode in anger again.Craig also noticed Tyrone, and his expression darkened.With only a few meters between them, Tyrone quickly reached her. Heather smiled. "What are you... Ah!"Tyrone suddenly swept her up in his arms. Heather, who was taken aback, instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck and asked, "What are you doing?""Who hurt your leg?"Heather was momentarily stunned, looking down at her leg.She saw several bloody wounds on her leg, most likely cut by glass when she dropped the wine bottle.She hadn't noticed it until now. No wonder she felt a slight pain in her leg while wal
"Pfft…"Heather accidentally spat out some water directly onto Tyrone's chin and neck."Heather!"Tyrone, who was a neat freak, gritted his teeth and clenched his jaw."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to! My bad!"Heather quickly wiped off the water with her hand, inadvertently brushing past Tyrone's prominent Adam's apple. Tyrone suddenly turned his head away to avoid her hand and said, "Don't think I will forgive you if you flirt with me!""What?"When had she ever flirted with him?She didn't expect him to still be fixated on this issue. Heather found it baffling and said, "I really didn't talk about anything with Craig. He just called me and then you came over."Tyrone grabbed a tissue to wipe his jaw. "Are you blaming me for interrupting you two?""No."She didn't mean that at all…"Then why were you talking to him?""Because he called me.""Just because he called you, does it mean you have to talk to him? If he's still interested in you, would you want to be with him?" T
Tyrone was scolding someone again.Heather silently sympathized with the person on the other end of the call, then knocked on the door."Come in."Tyrone's stern voice came from inside the room.Heather pushed the door open and saw Tyrone sitting behind his desk, his gaze fixed on her."Are you busy?" Heather asked with a smile.Tyrone glanced at her coldly, then lowered his head to focus on the documents, ignoring her.Clearly, he was still upset.Heather walked in, approached Tyrone, and placed the bowl of fruit salad on the table. "I made some fruit salad, try it."Tyrone glanced at her but remained silent. His expression clearly said "I'm not eating, I'm busy."Heather then used a silver fork to pick up a piece of strawberry, bringing it to his lips. "I made this especially for you. Won't you try it?"The bright strawberry was coated with a bit of salad dressing, and it looked appetizing.Tyrone didn't even bat an eyelid, acting as if she was invisible.Heather put the
The setting sun cast a warm orange glow in the study room.Heather sat on the office desk, and Tyrone stood in front of her. His one hand held her slender neck, the other arm tightly around her waist, pulling her closer in his embrace, kissing her deeply.A breeze brushed by, lifting Heather's white skirt lightly against Tyrone's black trousers.After a while, Tyrone released Heather.His thumb gently rubbed against her crimson and tender cheek as he whispered in a husky voice, "Are you hungry?"Heather's eyelashes fluttered slightly as she slowly opened her eyes, blushing as she looked at him. "Didn't you book a restaurant? Let's go.""How did you know?" Tyrone raised an eyebrow."Um, Caleb told me. He said you were scolding someone," Heather said.Tyrone was speechless. How dare Caleb complain to Heather. He must be tired of living!Meanwhile, Caleb suddenly sneezed. He rubbed his nose and felt a sudden chill down his spine. What was happening?…At Vista Palace.The rest
Shortly after, Mr. Caldwell left.Heather asked, "Can we go back now?""Are you angry?" Tyrone frowned and gently pinched Heather's cheek. "You don't need to care about what he said. I've told you, nothing will happen."It seemed like Tyrone was assuring her that her position as his lover was secure.Should she be happy about it?Heather wasn't actually angry. She just didn't want more people seeing them together, especially now that Janine had returned to the country. If rumors reached her, it wouldn't be a good thing."I'm not angry. I just want to go back. Shall we?" Heather said."You're really not angry?""I'm not.""Then give me a smile."Feeling helpless, Heather reluctantly curved her lips into a sweet smile."Heather, your smile is so ugly."Heather was speechless.She wanted to hit him!…Back at Magnolia Creek.Heather put down her bag and headed toward the bathroom.Suddenly, she was lifted up. Startled, she instinctively wrapped her arms around Tyrone's ne
The room fell silent."Heather, you know I need to have an heir."Tyrone stared at her for a moment, frowning as he spoke.Although he and Janine had a marriage for business purposes, they were still husband and wife. It was normal for their families to urge them to have children.A complex emotion flashed in Heather's eyes as she gazed at him seriously. "Then let's break up."Tyrone seemed displeased. "Are you finding reasons to break up with me again?"Heather shook her head. "It's not about that. Although you and Ms. Seel married for business purposes, the child is innocent. How will you explain to the child in the future that you have another woman? That would be too hurtful for the child, and I cannot do that."Having grown up in a broken family, she knew firsthand the psychological impact it could have on a child.Tyrone narrowed his eyes, looking at her abdomen. "If you won't let me have a child with her, then you can have one with me."He and Janine having a child was
Tyrone suddenly asked, "Caleb, do women generally not like to have illegitimate children?"This was a sensitive topic.Caleb paused, then cautiously asked, "Is it... related to you and your mother...?""No," Tyrone interrupted him. "It's Heather. She doesn't want to have children.""Do you want Ms. Sutton to have a child?"Caleb was shocked and almost bit his tongue. "Mr. Elkin, you are already married to Ms. Seel. If you have a child with Ms. Sutton, it would be extremely troublesome!"Tyrone spoiling Heather was one thing. But asking her to have his child was another!Was he under Ms. Sutton's spell?"I am capable of protecting both her and the child," Tyrone retorted.Whoever dared to harm her and the child was provoking him!Sensing his seriousness, Caleb's tone became more serious. "Mr. Elkin, the Elkin family is complicated enough. If people found out that you have a child with Ms. Sutton, it will put her and the child in a dangerous situation. Even if you can protect t
