“No, not yet," Jasper said, on the verge of tears. He felt even more scared than when Luke’s older brother and mother were involved in that incident.

“Gavin, tell Melvin immediately that if he can’t locate the coordinates of the call right now, he can forget about living,” Luke’s expression was icy. On the surface, he seemed impassive, but he was the only one who knew how nervous he was. He even had cold sweat on his palms.

“Understood,” Gavin replied with a trembling voice. He hurried to call Melvin, but as soon as the call connected, Melvin’s response gave him some hope.

“We have found it. We traced the phone call back to Black Bar. The coordinates show it came from the south side.”

“South side? Are you sure you have inspected all the rooms?” Jasper asked. Suddenly, he remembered something and hurried to exclaim, “I know where it is. There is a room we haven’t checked yet!”

As he said this, he turned around and led a group of people to the elevator. Soon, they arrived at the seventh

    After pondering for a while, Jasper realized that there was only one effective method to cure his sister-in-law. If he stayed in the car, he would certainly disrupt the flow of things.He didn’t dare to go against Luke’s words. Jasper understood that Luke didn’t plan to explain himself. So, he parked the car by the curb and got out with tremendous exasperation.“Luke, are you sure you don’t need my help?” Jasper inquired, staring at Dexie with concern.Luke turned to look at him. “Go find that woman named Paloma. Bring her to the Huxley residence in two hours.”Jasper didn’t dare to ask more questions but scrutinized Luke with amazement. Two hours? It wasn’t obvious, but his endurance was quite good!Jasper walked away, leaving Dexie, who was still dazed, alone in the car with Luke. She murmured to Luke in a hoarse voice, “Save me, Luke. I feel very uncomfortable.”She felt like she was about to lose all rationality. At this moment, Dexie was like a tempting and fragrant delicacy t

    In fact, he found it amusing to see Dexie in such a desperate and anxious state.Dexie felt bitter about this. However, she had no way to refute his statement.Everyone knew that the CEO of the Huxley Group did not like the company of women. However, she had woken up next to him. When she imagined herself committing the act, she was completely convinced that she was wrong. Regardless of how she looked at it, Luke was the one who had suffered.Luke pretended to think. Dexie worried even more when she saw him deep in thought with a furrowed brow.After a long pause, he finally spoke and said, "So... I will temporarily withhold your salary. In the future, you will take care of Danny, receiving no income."Since she was his wife, the assets and money of the Huxley family would belong to her in the future. Naturally, she would not need income."Oh..." Dexie's voice was filled with misery."But your salary alone will not be enough. Even if you starve and save for ten years, it will not be e

    “Boss, are you saying that?” Gavin looked at Luke. A trace of cold and murderous intent passed through his eyes. His intention was as clear as day.Luke did not give him a response. He looked at the documents and contemplated what his next steps would be.He placed a hand on the table and drummed his fingers in an arrhythmic manner. The sound of his drumming broke the silence of the quiet room, causing Gavin to break out in a cold sweat...This was his boss’s standard behavior when he was angry.Who could ignore Luke’s terrible cruelty? He had almost forgotten this. After his boss met Miss Hansley, he seemed to have completely changed.“Let’s see how Dexie wants to deal with her later and if she should be kept alive.” After a pause, Luke finally spoke. Gavin silently breathed a sigh of relief.“Then we pretend to know nothing. No one may deal with the William family issue. Not a word should be leaked,” Luke said.That girl was someone who valued her relationship and was a strong-minded

    Dexie was perplexed. Her eyes darkened instantly as she looked at Eric in confusion. “Weren’t you the ones who said you didn’t want to see me?”“Hmm?” Eric remained silent for a moment. Suddenly, he seemed to have realized this, and his expression darkened. He asked Dexie coldly, “Did that horrible Paloma tell you this?”Dexie nodded.“What did she say?” Eric’s face darkened. However, he couldn’t help but inquire further.Dexie hesitated for a moment. However, she remembered Paloma’s style of doing things, as well as her character. It was likely that Paloma had lied. Since there wasn’t much to hide, she sighed and replied, “She said the William family only wanted money. Once you received the money, you expressed no desire to interact with me, and it appeared unnecessary for us to meet.“Indeed, she is an ungrateful, shameless woman.” Eric coughed coldly. His voice was icy as he said, “She told us you cared little, especially because you didn’t grow up in our family. She mentioned you

    At the end of the call, Oswin was perplexed. He seemed to be at a loss for words. Dexie also didn’t feel very good about this and felt an incomparable sense of anger welling up inside her. But before she could speak, she heard Oswin say, “Dexie, the date of our wedding has already been set and it will be held soon. Currently, she is missing and both the Hansley family and the Blake family will become jokes within the City. Can’t you...?”The appreciation and affection Dexie once had for Oswin had completely vanished. Her voice turned chilly as she said, “Do you know what she did?”Oswin stammered, unable to give a response. Dexie scoffed, her voice icy, “Oswin, since high school, I always thought you were going to be my future husband. I don’t exactly know how I felt about you, but I had never imagined having another man besides you. And you? And your family? What did you all do?”Oswin was speechless.Dexie’s voice was icy as she said, “Since Paloma returned to the Hansley family, y

    When Luke noticed the uncomfortable expression on her face, he couldn’t help but ask with a furrowed brow, “What happened? Are you feeling unwell?” Her face didn’t look very good, and she was even clutching her stomach.“I’m fine.”“Did you start your period?” Luke froze. It was their wedding night, and he was wondering if they could. He didn’t expect her period to start. When Dexie heard him ask this, her face immediately turned even redder.“I’m fine. Please, hurry and leave.” Luke nodded.“Paloma is locked in the basement. You can deal with her as you please but show no mercy.” Dexie was completely perplexed. When she realized Luke would not question her about her period, she sighed in relief.At that moment, Eric had told her something similar. Besides her blood relatives, only Luke understood and cared for her. Luke gently closed the door. However, he secretly went to a nearby high-end convenience store to buy sanitary pads for her. Once, she accidentally overheard her maids tal

    Danny was paralyzed for a moment. This was the first time he had seen Luke act so severely towards him. However, he was not afraid. Despite having autism since he was young, he was a little genius. His small face, white as snow, tensed up and seemed extremely serious when he said, “Dad, I said I wanted to marry Dexie.”“Why are you suddenly saying this?” Luke was quite confused. He looked at Danny in bewilderment.After thinking for a moment, he stretched out his chubby pinky and pointed to his cheek. “She kissed me.”“So?” Luke narrowed his eyes. A dangerous look shot out of his eyes, and he suddenly seemed on the edge.Did his son want to touch his wife? Did his son want to fight for his wife? That was his wife! Not even his biological son would be spared! He was going on the offensive!“Didn’t Dad say that a man and a woman shouldn’t touch each other randomly? I want to take responsibility!” Danny said.“This is not how this concept works. Danny, Dexie just treats you like a child

    As he said this, the man who had been tied to the pillar struggled with all his might. His eyes were filled with fear.As a former bodyguard who used to work for the Huxley family, he was naturally aware of the miserable end he would meet if Luke took matters into his own hands. But that stupid Paloma had argued with this girl instead of begging for mercy!“What? Didn’t you ask me to bless you and Oswin’s son? Are you suddenly regretting it?” Dexie mocked, “Paloma, Paloma. No matter what tricks you have up your sleeve, today you will not be a match for me. Luke has my back. Even though I am just a therapist taking care of his son, I will still be able to kill you a hundred times.”“Dexie, you can’t treat me this way.”This time, Paloma was truly terrified. Although her heart was filled with sorrow, she was not willing to admit her mistakes to Dexie. She gritted her teeth and looked at Dexie. The fear and recognition that Luke’s name provoked were enough to drown everything out. The sh

    This matter was troublesome.“Are they in the restaurant right now?” Dexie calmed down and asked.This batch of lunchboxes could not be returned. They would have to resolve it in some other way.“Yes, they are in the restaurant,” Eric quickly said, “If this matter is not resolved, I’m afraid of reporters will find out, and then it will be even worse for us.”“I know. Keep them occupied, and I’ll come soon.” Dexie had not yet thought of a solution. The only way to solve this was to buy them new ones. However, if the other party refused, she wouldn’t be able to do anything.When she thought about this, Dexie frowned and had a headache.What can be done about it?For now, they could only take it one step at a time and try to stall. After all, the boxes were in their hands, and it was impossible to return them. So, they would have to resolve it in another way. As for Dexie, she certainly was not willing to return them.Dexie told the driver to leave quickly. When she arrived at the resta

    The burning red roses were arranged in the shape of a large heart that was beautiful beyond words. Dexie instantly understood why Luke had asked her to come. It turned out to be a surprise for her."Wow, what beautiful flowers. Dad, did you give them to Mom?" Danny's voice came from somewhere, so Dexie turned around and saw both Danny and Luke standing behind her, smiling at her.Dexie turned to look at Luke and laughed when she said, "How can you continue to act so frivolous when you are the president of the Huxley Group?"Although she said this, she felt extremely happy.Luke approached Dexie and couldn't help but grab her waist with a smile on his face. He said, "As long as this frivolous trick can make my wife happy, it's worth it."Dexie couldn't refute a single word he said, so she smiled and nodded as she said, "Okay, you're right."Only then did Luke smile and ask Dexie, "Do you like it?"Dexie nodded and said, "Yes, I like it."Which woman wouldn't like flowers? Which woman w

    He threw the remote control he had in his hand at the television, which was hanging on the wall. It made a loud noise when he threw it, and the television wobbled a bit as if it were about to fall at any moment.On one hand, Weston's face was expressionless. He wore a mask, so he could have had an expression on his face, but it couldn't be seen.He walked towards the television and reached out to gently hold it before turning his head to look at Zoey and said in a deep voice, "What's your plan?""I underestimated this woman," Zoey breathed twice to calm herself down before saying, "I can't believe she came up with an idea so quickly, but why do those lunch boxes being sterilized look so familiar?"Weston's voice showed slight fluctuations as he said, "Those were the ones, Mrs. Jensen prepared to donate to the children at the orphanage last time. She bought more than necessary and intended to return them.""In that case, how did they end up in her hands?" Zoey's eyes were cold, and her

    In this kind of situation, William’s Fast Food would make headlines regardless of the news, so it was a good deal for them, and they could also take advantage of this opportunity to promote the restaurant.A reporter pushed through to ask Dexie, “Miss Hansley, you’re not deliberately promoting things to get in the headlines, are you?”Upon hearing this, Dexie was not offended but simply smiled at the reporter in the crowd and chuckled as she said, “You probably haven’t worked in any other industry, let alone the food industry, have you? Everyone will make headlines, but no one will use this method to do so. Wouldn’t that be counterproductive? You’re joking, but that joke isn’t funny.”After Dexie said this, the reporters around looked at the reporter strangely, and the reporter also seemed to realize she was out of place and did not speak again.Seeing this, Dexie said, “Alright, everyone, please come in. If you want to take photos of something, do so, and if you have questions, ask.

    “Dexie, what’s the point of ordering a cabinet disinfection machine now?”Eric was confused and said, “There are already several units in the store.”“That’s not enough. By the way, instruct the staff to go to the store and remove all the cabinets from the cabinet machine so they don’t take up space. The kitchen will continue to operate as usual today. There’s no need to be deliberate, but everyone should be careful not to make the slightest mistake. Later, there may be reporters coming in to take photos. No one has to do anything consciously, just follow the usual routine,” Dexie told Eric.“Dexie, what do you want to do?” Eric was confused. He had never experienced this kind of situation before, and it was such a big spectacle that he was now a little scared.Dexie’s voice sounded extraordinarily calm and serene as she said, “Eric, I have already thought of a solution, so don’t be anxious and do as I say. I will communicate with you later.”“Have you already figured out what to do?”

    “Did you just find out?” Dexie asked with a gossipy expression.Luke nodded and said, “Yes, I just found out, so I’m telling you.”Dexie was very puzzled, and after thinking for a moment, she said, “With this evidence, Ava will be convicted in front of your father in the future and directly expelled from the Huxley family. Without her interference, your father would probably not have me a hard time so often in the future.”“Although my father doesn’t agree with this marriage, if she were an understanding person and advised my father, our relationship wouldn’t be so bad.” Luke’s tone of voice cooled.“So when are you going to tell your father?” Dexie asked.Luke sighed and told Dexie, “Not yet. Now is not the time. Regarding the previous maritime incident and someone who bought internal shares of the Huxley family, she and my uncle were the ones who conspired and joined forces to cooperate with the York family.”So that’s how it was.Dexie nodded and said to Luke, “What about...

    As he spoke, he approached Dexie and once again tapped her cheek twice. The meaning couldn’t be more obvious.He had to kiss her. Dexie’s mouth pouted as she looked indignantly at Luke, then reluctantly moved and gave him a peck on the cheek while saying, “You can say it now, right?”Luke said with a serious face, “I feel like there wasn’t enough sincerity.” Luke seemed quite serious.Upon hearing this, Dexie snorted and said, “You’re playing with me.”Luke laughed and said, “Letting my wife kiss me is not a joke, right?”Dexie was defenseless and said, “So, what do you want?”Luke calmly said, “Just a kiss on the lips.”Upon hearing this, Dexie blushed as she said, “Luke, you, you... rascal...”However, Luke acted pitifully as he said, “God, to ask for a kiss from my wife, I even have to use this kind of trick. Don’t you think I’m pitiful?”When he said that, he looked at Dexie with a pitiful expression, and his eyes were filled with complaints, as if Dexie had done something unforgi

    Dexie nodded as she looked at the distress and anguish in Sabrina’s eyes, and couldn’t help but force a smile when she said to Sabrina, “I never expected that one day, meeting my mother would also require cunning.”Sabrina smiled bitterly, her tone becoming helpless and sad as she told Dexie, “Dexie, hold on a little longer. Just... you can’t reveal this matter to anyone now, for your safety. Your restaurant also has good business, so I’m afraid it could cause trouble, so you must be more careful.”Dexie smiled and said, “There’s nothing to be aggrieved about when I can see mom. I’m thrilled, and I won’t tell anyone yet. Mom, be careful when you go back alone and don’t expose yourself.”After Dexie finished speaking, she wiped Sabrina’s tears and took out her makeup cushion, asking, “Do you mind if I use this to fix mom’s makeup?” Sabrina quickly took Dexie’s hand and said, “Silly girl, why would mom mind?”Dexie opened the cushion, dabbed away Sabrina’s tear marks, before smiling an

    Sabrina's voice was sad and relieved, making Dexie also overwhelmed with emotion. She first stiffened for a moment, then hugged Sabrina tighter and whispered, "Mom, I also thought I would never find my biological mother again, but I never thought it would be you. Mom..."As if she had been waiting for a long time, as if she had been waiting for a century, Dexie couldn't help but scream repeatedly.Sabrina, who looked so much like her, was her mother...Sherry also wiped her tears aside and said, "Look at us, this is a joyful occasion, so why are we crying? It wouldn't be good for people to see us when we go out later! Miss Dexie and Mrs. Jensen are both kind-hearted people, so you two deserve to reunite. I finally achieved something this time."If it weren't for Sherry's words this time, no one would have remembered this matter. She didn't want to take credit for it, but she was trying to joke and lighten the mood so that mother and daughter wouldn't continue crying without thinking o
