Caleb understood that Tyrone was referring to Heather. His eyes flashed with astonishment.Tyrone actually viewed Heather as his pet. Despite knowing that she might pose a threat, he still wanted to keep her and train her?A dark glint flickered in Tyrone's eyes. He dropped the pen, picked up his suit jacket, and strode toward the door with long strides.Caleb followed closely behind. "Where are you going, Mr. Elkin?""To her place," Tyrone replied without looking back.Caleb's face changed drastically at his words. He hurriedly stepped forward to stop Tyrone and said seriously, "Mr. Elkin, Heather is very dangerous to you now. You can't risk approaching her again.""Move," Tyrone said calmly."Mr. Elkin!""What? Are you not listening to my orders anymore?" Tyrone's eyes suddenly took on a dangerous, intimidating look.Tyrone had already decided to go see Heather, and Caleb knew he couldn't stop him. He could only reluctantly step aside.Tyrone's face remained emotionless as
Heather thought Tyrone had something important to discuss, so she walked over. Just as she reached his side, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her onto his lap. His strong arms encircled her soft waist, pulling her into an embrace.Heather's expression changed immediately as she tried to stand up. "Mr. Elkin, you said you'd give me a week—""How's that consideration going?"Tyrone had originally intended just to hold her, but as soon as he touched her fragrant and soft body, he regretted his decision to give her a week's time the day before.But since he had already said it, he couldn't go back on his words. Tyrone held her hand in his, idly toying with it.So, he had really come over for this.Heather had indeed considered it, but all her thoughts had been about how to escape.Just as she was about to speak, the TV blared with the voices of actors."Why are you bothering me? What do you want from me? Haven't I made it clear enough? I'll never be with you! Leave me alone! If yo
Heather sat down beside Tyrone. "I need to talk to you, Mr. Elkin.""Go on."She opened her palm, revealing a small white bottle and a check. "Your brother approached me today and asked me to drug you. This is the drug and the check he gave me."Tyrone's pupils contracted suddenly as he stared intently at her.He didn't speak, but his expression was peculiar, leaving Heather puzzled. "You don't believe me? This really is a drug. I'm not lying."Of course, Tyrone knew it was a drug. With narrowed eyes, he took the bottle from her hand and said in his deep voice, "Why didn't you listen to him?"Heather's eyes flickered. She replied calmly, "You've helped me before. I wouldn't harm you."She had deceived Greg to get out of that place.She wasn't foolish. After Greg used her, he surely wouldn't spare her. If she really drugged Tyrone, she might not live to spend that hefty sum.Moreover, Tyrone had helped her so much that she couldn't bring herself to harm him.Tyrone silently lo
Heather was rendered speechless.She had thought that she could exchange her freedom by revealing Greg's plan, but Tyrone wasn't playing by the rules.Heather couldn't even utter a single word in her frustration. She furrowed her brow tightly, her face displaying stubborn refusal.As Tyrone watched that, his desire to conquer was ignited. He pinched her chin and forcefully kissed her."Let me—"Heather resisted. With her hands pressing against his chest, she attempted to push him away.Her soft lips were like candy, irresistible upon contact. Tyrone disliked sweets, yet he was particularly fond of her lips.He wouldn't allow Heather to escape.He used his large hand to firmly hold the back of her head as he pressed her down onto the couch. His tongue forcefully pried open her teeth, deepening the kiss.The two entangled figures in the room kissed passionately, shocking the one spying on them outside."My goodness!" the bodyguard exclaimed."What's wrong?" Caleb was shocked.
Tyrone's eyes remained indifferent as he hummed in response. Heather's pupils quivered. So, he had been acting all along."We know everything. Are you going to deny meeting Mr. Greg?" Caleb's usual politeness had vanished, replaced by a chilly demeanor.Heather remained silent.Still holding her waist with one arm, Tyrone picked up the small bottle from the coffee table and tossed it to Caleb.Caleb instinctively caught it, but he was slightly bewildered. "Mr. Elkin, this is—""The drug that Greg gave her," Tyrone replied coldly."What?"The drug was in Heather's possession. Tyrone's words seemed to imply that Heather had handed it over willingly.The situation had taken a turn far beyond Caleb's expectations. He looked at Heather in astonishment. She hadn't intended to harm Tyrone after all.Greg was resourceful and generous. Yet, Heather, despite her poverty, hadn't wavered."What are you thinking?" Tyrone lowered his eyes to Heather, who remained silent in his arms.Hea
Tyrone sat on the couch and casually took off his tie. Then, he took out his phone and dialed a number.The phone rang for a long time before it was answered. He could hear a man's voice coming through. "Tyrone, it's already so late. What's up?""Greg, do you know a scientist called Charlie King?" Tyrone's voice was calm and emotionless."Hmm, that famous astronomer? Do you want to recruit him?" Greg's tone was casual, as if he didn't have any ulterior motives.Tyrone replied calmly, "I heard he has ALS and has become completely paralyzed. It's a miracle that he's still alive. Greg, you just can't walk. You're in a much better situation than him. Do you want to become the second miracle?"Tyrone's cold voice suddenly became harsh. "Greg Elkin, if you touch my people again, you'll become the second Charlie!"Compared to Greg's hypocrisy, Tyrone had always been straightforward, never pretentious. So, his threats were direct and cruel.Greg hung up the phone directly. Tyrone's eyes
"Ms. Sutton, it's great to work at Elkin Group. Just stay. By the way, we've fixed the door of your apartment." Caleb thought this news would make Heather a little happier.Tyrone wouldn't let her resign. Regardless of whether she was willing, she had to continue working at Elkin Group. Any resistance was just futile."Thank you. I'll get my phone and get ready for work." Heather felt annoyed as she got up and walked toward the bedroom."Mr. Elkin, don't you think Ms. Sutton seems to be in a bad mood?"Caleb looked at Heather's back in confusion, but when he turned around, he saw that Tyrone was staring at him coldly. He felt a sudden thud in his heart.Tyrone then said in an icy tone, "Did you need to fix it so quickly?"Caleb became speechless.…After a busy morning, Heather went to the company cafeteria for lunch.She took the elevator to the floor where the cafeteria was located and walked past a fire exit. It was then that she heard a woman's moan."Don't… Ah…"Heath
Two hours before the end of the work day, Caleb came to inform Heather that she needed to accompany Tyrone for dinner.She was allowed to leave earlier and head to a stylist for a makeover."Mr. Hall, I have a part-time job tonight. Can I skip dinner?"Caleb smiled and said, "Ms. Sutton, I'm just a messenger. If you don't want to go, you need to talk to Mr. Elkin."What was the point of talking to Tyrone? He wouldn't agree anyway.Heather had no choice but to call Scarlett for a leave, and then she hurried to the stylist.It was a very famous stylist, and many of the celebrities' trending styles were made by her.The stylist, who had received advance notice, greeted Heater at the door. She bowed and escorted Heather to a VIP seat. Then, she asked Heather what style of makeover she preferred.After three hours of fussing around, Heather finally had her makeup done and changed into a light pink long dress at the stylist's request.The dress gave off a fairy-like vibe with its of
"You have the hair. You can leave now," Tyrone said as he started to drive both Greg and Hector away.He was feeling sorry for Heather for having to deal with this when she had just woken up and when she was still quite frail."Arrange a room opposite this ward for me," Greg ordered his bodyguard.When Tyrone heard what Greg was saying, he frowned and said coldly, "You're going to stay here?""There are so many reporters outside. Do you think it's suitable for me to leave in less than 20 minutes after I've just visited my girlfriend who has been admitted to the hospital?" Greg remarked casually.However, he kept on poking at Tyrone by referring to Heather as his girlfriend again and again.Tyrone's expression was extremely cold as he said, "You're really treating yourself as her boyfriend now, huh?""It doesn't matter if I want to be her boyfriend or not. Most importantly, the entire nation believes I'm her boyfriend.""Looks like you want me to get you some work.""Ha!" Greg
Tyrone's eyes became a little colder as his arms around Heather's waist tightened.Greg scoffed at Tyrone's act of announcing his ownership and simply shot Heather a look. "Are you feeling any better?"He was here to visit a patient, so there was no need to get into a scuffle with an amiable person.Heather couldn't show Greg a sour expression, so she simply nodded. "Yeah."Greg let out a laugh. "You're so fortunate. Otherwise, you're going to die from some garbage's uselessness."He was inferring something else.Tyrone frowned and his attitude became even colder. "If you don't want me to throw you out, you should learn how to watch your tongue."Greg scoffed. "Which part of what I said was wrong?""Alright, now that Hattie's back, you two should stop fighting," Hector said. His gentle nature and charm easily make others have a good impression of him.He might be Heather's older cousin, so they had to show him some respect.Tyrone's eyes were cold as he bit his lips and said
Tyrone's body stiffened and the atmosphere suddenly turned tense."Tyrone. He shielded me from an attack. I saw him get hurt. I just want to know how bad his injury is."Heather knew Tyrone didn't like her talking about Craig, but she was genuinely worried about Craig. Heather explained to Tyrone using a gentle voice and tugged at his clothing.There was some anxiety in her eyes. She was being very careful, worried that he might get angry.It was true that Tyrone was somewhat upset, but what else could he say when she was already having that kind of attitude?Tyrone stayed quiet for a while and said, "He's no longer in danger."Heather sighed in relief. "I want to see him."Heather knew Tyrone was going to get upset again if he found out she sneaked out to see Craig, so she might as well tell Tyrone now.Tyrone was silent for a few seconds before he coldly said, "You can see him when you're in a better condition."Heather wanted to go immediately. But she knew if she showed to
Seth had already planned to go for a game of gold in the afternoon.Ivy didn't want to stay to become a third wheel, so after telling Heather to take good care of herself, she then left together with Seth.The ward instantly fell silent.Tyrone looked at Heather with dark eyes. "How do you feel? Do you still feel any pain?"Heather simply said, "I want to take a shower."She had sweated a lot after she recovered from her fever, and she wasn't feeling that comfortable from the sticky sweat.Tyrone's eyes darkened and didn't say anything. He pulled the blanket aside and picked her up, taking her to the washroom.The moment they were inside the washroom, Tyrone placed her on the toilet. He first filled the bathtub with hot water before turning around, wanting to remove her clothes."I can take a bath by myself. You should go out," Heather said as she held onto her outfit tightly, blushing.Tyrone raised his eyebrow. "How can you take a bath yourself when you're so weak? What if a
When Heather opened her eyes once again, the first person she saw was Ivy."You're finally awake, Hattie! You're scaring me to death! Are you alright? Are you feeling any discomfort?"Ivy quickly held Heather's hand when she saw the latter opening her eyes. Then, she asked a string of questions.Heather's entire body was feeling numb and her head was spinning. "I feel weak. Is this the hospital? Why are you here?""I found out from Seth that you have been kidnapped and Mr. Elkin has been searching for you all the while," Ivy said nervously. "You've been having a fever for the past two days and you scared me. It is so fortunate that you turned out alright."She paused a little before saying angrily, "Selena must have gone crazy. She was trying to starve you to death. I know she's not a good person, but I didn't expect her to be so malevolent."You can't even call her a human anymore. She's been arrested, and it's over for her this time."Ivy still couldn't forget how she first sa
Craig was too calm. Perhaps it was because he already knew how duplicitous Selena was.The gentle Selena was just an illusion he saw when they first met, and after he was charmed.That was why, despite feeling angry and shocked once finding out Selena's pregnancy was a lie, he didn't find it completely unbelievable.There was nervousness when Selena was looking at Craig, but it slowly turned into disappointment. Her lips curled into a bitter smile as she said, "You must be so happy when you heard I've faked my pregnancy. You think that you've finally gotten rid of this burden, haven't you?"Craig… Do you know how much I wanted to have a child with you? But you don't look forward to having a child with me at all!"Then let me tell you one more thing. Nothing happened between us that night at the hotel. I've always been lying to you."Aren't you even happier when you hear this news? She spends every waking moment with Tyrone, but you're still keeping your virginity for her… Do yo
Light reflected from the sharp blade."Hattie!" Tyrone yelled loudly.Selena was already right in front of Heather in the blink of an eye, wearing a twisted expression on her face as she held the dagger in her hand.Suddenly, Craig appeared right in front of Heather. He protected Heather, and the sharp blade sliced open a deep wound on his face.Craig grunted, and his towering figure shuddered.Heather looked at the figure standing right in front of her as she could only weakly shout out in shock, "Craig!"Why was he there?Craig was showing Heather his back as he raised his hand to cover his face, blood coming out from between his fingers and dripping on the ground as it flowed from the back of his hand."Don't worry, I'm fine."Craig glared at Selena coldly as he responded to Heather.Selena was completely stunned as she couldn't move her eyes away from Craig.Tyrone kicked Selena's bodyguard in the chest, and he fell to the ground, unconscious. It was at this time when Ca
"But what did you do?"Selena's eyes were suddenly filled with savagery, as if she wanted to turn Heather into shreds. "We were fine when we went on our honeymoon, but everything changed the moment we met you!"Why wouldn't you leave? Why must you string him along? He was going to fall in love with me soon!"Heather, you ruined everything for me! It's you… It's all because of you!"Selena screamed in hysteria.She still believed that the root of all her issues was because Heather refused to leave.Heather never expected Craig and Selena to have such a deep history. "I've never wanted to steal Craig from you. You're the one that's being too suspicious."Selena kept staring at Heather. "It doesn't matter, because you're going to die today, anyway. Even if Craig won't ever love me, he can forget about being together with you!"Even if she couldn't get Craig, she wouldn't allow them to be together.All Selena cared about was revenge.Selena pulled out a dagger from her purse. The
Caleb moved very quickly. He had already found out that Selena had been keeping in touch with a number every day.The owner of that number was a bodyguard who worked for the Huntington. According to the GPS signal from the phone with this number, the phone had been staying in Suthurn Hills on the northern side of Royalton.At the same time, Caleb's phone started to ring. He picked it up and listened to his subordinate's reports. He frowned and said, "Sir, Selena had suddenly left the hospital. Her car is leaving the city.""If she really is leaving the city, is it possible that she's heading to Suthurn Hills? Maybe her bodyguard is keeping an eye on Heather?" Hector made an educated guess.In reality, Hector's guesses were all spot on."The mountains stretch across a wide area. We need to find a way to pinpoint the phone's exact location and then send out our men to search the area," Greg said.Tyrone said nothing as he pursed his lips. Suddenly, he walked in the direction of the
