"I don't know, Nina, do you want to tell me?" Leonard asked with a smile.Nina shook her head in frustration, facing happiness, she suddenly didn't dare to try.Seeing her hesitation, he asked: "Are you afraid?"Nina knew she was afraid of heights, but she no longer had this bad habit after saving Lucas."Or let's go car driving." Her weakness defeated her."Okay, I agree to whatever you want today."At that moment, Leonard's phone rang. He went to another place and said to his assistant in a low voice: "Those people will take advantage of these days to attack, we will arrange everything well and wait for them to take the bait."Her heart was heavy, no matter how much love, there was no way to dispel the pain and anxiety in her heart. Leonard saw through her strangeness."Nina, are you hiding something from me?""No, I'm just a little tired. There's still a lot of work to do tomorrow, let's go home early and rest a bit."Leonard looked at her seriously, then nodded silently.---In Em
Esmeralda put her arms around her shoulders, her face cold. She originally wanted to take Lucas to the exchange, but suddenly, the child had a serious fever.Standing in front of her red Ferrari, she suddenly thought of someone—Adrian. But before she could think of where to go, a dark figure suddenly appeared in front of her. She was terrified and retreated, unable to avoid the opponent's pressure. The opponent's attack was a series of kicks. In the martial arts world, only Courtney used this attack, but it was said that she was currently a member of the Dragon Blade Gang."Courtney," Esmeralda shouted. The opponent flew up and kicked her away. Even Courtney appeared, it seemed that tomorrow there would be a melee."Esmeralda. What are you doing sneaking around our company in the middle of the night?" The person called Courtney said."The world is so big, can't I go to your company?" Esmeralda fixed her hair."Your White Tiger Gang has always been petty thieves. Tomorrow is my young m
The gloomy sky left a gray color in Tawny Matthews's eyes. She stared at the divorce papers before her, her heart breaking into many pieces.Three years was so short, but also so long. So short that when she closed her eyes, she could see how boring her marriage was. So long that the loneliness and resentment she had endured for many years had piled up like a mountain, weighing down on her panting heart. It turned her into a mobile iceberg, only knowing how to walk, stand, and lie down, but no longer knowing how to cry, laugh, be sad or happy.That period was enough for Tawny to understand that today she was determined to sign the divorce papers, ending the days of suffering and despair.Two streams of hot tears rolled down her cold cheeks, Tawny painfully looked up at everything around the empty room, the place she still considered her home, her nest.But her husband, Leonard, never thought so. To him, this place was hell, a place where he was imprisoned in freedom, a place filled wi
"There was a serious car accident on xxx street this morning." Leonard turned on the TV and saw the news.He sat down on the sofa and heard the announcer say, "The victim is identified as Tawny Matthews. She was dragging a suitcase on the road at that time." Hearing this, Leonard immediately sat up. The camera just turned to the scene of the accident. Around the scene, fresh blood was splattered all over the ground, and a pair of dark glasses was lying in the middle of the road.Those glasses were so familiar.How could this be? Leonard could not imagine that this tragic incident would happen.He immediately asked the staff to find out which hospital Tawny was in, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw a group of reporters."Mr. Leonard, may I ask you what is the relationship between Miss Paige and you?""Mr. Leonard, someone saw your wife being hit by a car twenty minutes ago. She was holding a suitcase. "Did you kick her out of the house?""Mr. Leonard.""Go away."Leonard shoute
In the lobby of Roberts Group, Leonard led a group of people in charge into the lobby. As soon as he entered the door, he noticed the young man sitting in the middle. This person wore gold glasses and a carefully tailored suit. Compared to the sharp Leonard, he looked gentle, elegant, and leisurely.“This must be Mr. John.”Based on the previous documents, Leonard concluded that this was the CEO of Gelex Group in North America.“Mr. Leonard, nice to meet you.”Because the two people's personalities were completely different, the atmosphere between the two was a bit strange when they talked. Leonard was too sharp, while John was too gentle.“Tell me, how much will you pay for this project?” Leonard sat down and threw the documents on the table.“Mr. Leonard, the problem is not the price. The problem is that we want to have the right to buy this project,” John said with a smile.“Buy first, we can give it to you, but the price your company offers is not sincere at all.”The two talked f
“What do you want to do?” After being chased for a while, the police finally spotted the sports car behind them, so they pulled the police car to the side of the road and stopped.“I’m sorry, officer,” Nina said incoherently.Adrian pulled Nina behind him. “I’m sorry, officer, that’s how it is.”Adrian explained everything to the police. Despite being criticized by the police, he still brought Lucas back.“What kind of parents are you to not pay attention to the child.”“I’m sorry for bothering you.” Nina blushed and bowed her head.To avoid traffic jams, the police asked Adrian to drive away immediately.“Lucas, you’re too much. Why are you running around alone? Do you know how worried your uncle Adrian and I are?” Nina began to scold Lucas.“I’m sorry.” Lucas silently bowed his head. “Lucas won’t do it again. Mom, you don’t have to be angry, okay? And Uncle Adrian too.”“It’s okay, Lucas. It’s best if you don’t do it again. You’re still young. It’s dangerous to go around alone and g
"It's okay. I like this job." Nina smiled like a blooming sunflower, making people feel full of sunshine.The shop owner nodded with satisfaction. "It can be done right now. This bouquet of forget-me-nots is for Roberts Group, remember to sign for it carefully." Nina took the bouquet and walked towards Roberts Group."Excuse me, do you know this person?" Nina pulled the guard to point at her notebook and asked."Leonard Roberts. This is our general manager." The guard widened his eyes, finding it hard to believe that there was someone who didn't know the CEO of Roberts Group. The guard conveniently took out a magazine cover, on which was a picture of Leonard, a handsome face that made everyone admire.Nina let out a soft cry, suddenly feeling a little scared. How could the first day of work be so hard? But no matter what, she couldn't give up halfway.Nina held the large bouquet and walked into the first-floor area."Ma'am, please wait a moment. Who are you looking for?" She was about
“Are you awake?” The gentle and soft voice sounded like a blessing from heaven. Nina opened her eyes and saw a strange young man sitting in front of her hospital bed.“I…. where is this?”“This is the hospital. I almost bumped into you just now, so the CEO ordered me to take you to the hospital. Moreover, the CEO said that you are not allowed to come to the company to send flowers anymore.” The man’s words filled Nina’s stomach with resentment.“Nina, you are really good. You can make Leonard sign the receipt.” The flower shop owner's eyes lit up with admiration. Although Nina had gotten Leonard's signature, she also encountered many difficulties.“Do you know why I still can't find a flower delivery person? Because most of my bills are from Roberts Group and Leonard, as you can see..." The salesman said softly. After Nina heard that, she felt scared all day yesterday. If that unexpected event hadn't happened, she would have returned home in a mess. Why is that CEO so arrogant?"Nina

"Nina, I'm sorry." He apologized as soon as they spoke, "These past few days, I've been harassed by the media. But I'll do my best, no one can stop us. Tomorrow at the Day nine Hotel, we'll hold our engagement ceremony there. I'll send my subordinates to pick you up.""Day nine Hotel?" Nina slowly read these words in her mind, suddenly her thoughts became chaotic, she felt something flowing out of her nostrils, she reached out and it turned out to be fresh blood. Why did this name sound so familiar, where had she heard it? She muttered, almost fainting."Nina," Leonard shouted through the mobile phone."I'm fine, I'm a little tired, tomorrow..." She tried to maintain her last bit of consciousness.Nina persisted in saying that over the phone and immediately fainted.This time, the white world was different; there was a man's silhouette there, he was turning his head back…"Leonard." She was surprised to see that it was Leonard. Did they know each other before?Leonard coldly pushed he
"I was the man in that story, and the woman was Tawny. At that time, he was young and didn't like her at all. When I learned that Matthews Group went bankrupt and my ex-girlfriend came back, I divorced her and kicked her out of the house, which is why she had an accident." Leonard took a deep breath. "I'm so sorry for her."Although Nina also thought that it might be so, when she heard him say it with his voice, she was still startled. No wonder Hatice hated Leonard so much. What he did at that time was reprehensible, but was he happy to be tormented by his conscience for five years? After all, the dead cannot be brought back to life.Nina hugged Leonard and gently stroked his hair."Nina, if you were Tawny, would you forgive me?" He said."Yes." She didn't think about it at all. "Everyone makes mistakes. It's good to know that you're wrong and be able to correct your mistakes. If I were Tawny, I would forgive you.""Thank you." Leonard looked at her affectionately, tears welling up i
"Paige, wake up." Her father urged her earnestly, "What's the use of doing this?""I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear it. Go away." Paige calmly picked up a vase and threw it straight at the door. A moment later, she suddenly opened the door. "Dad." Paige's entire face was covered in tears. "Go beg Leonard, beg his father. Please." She begged."Paige. Wake up." Her father shook her hard. "He doesn't love you. This matter has been settled for five years, why are you still so stubborn? Listen to me, daughter, let go.""I don't want to. He said that after divorcing Tawny, he would marry me. I've waited for five years. Because of him, you went to France to study design. For him, I tried my best to change myself. How could I give up? I can't just admit defeat like that." She grabbed the door frame and slowly slid down. "Why did he lie to me?"Seeing her daughter's extremely sad appearance, her father felt heartbroken. He walked over and hugged her.---Nina looked in the mirror
"Is Shanley the mastermind behind this?" Nina asked."Shanley? He wasn't the mastermind, but he was the one who tried his best to deal with the Roberts family because the Roberts family were his enemies."Nina wanted to ask more, but Esmeralda ordered the guests to leave. "You should quickly go back. Remember that tonight's matter absolutely must not be known to Leonard, otherwise you and your son will die miserably."Nina glared at her fiercely and went out.—After a day of being unconscious, Hatice finally woke up. In her daze, she felt that her mouth and tongue were unusually dry.“Thirsty….” She found that wanting to say something was much harder than thinking. She spoke softly, but the wound on her abdomen was aching. Emery, who had been taking care of her, heard her words and immediately walked over.“Are you awake?” Under the dim light, Emery’s entire body seemed to be surrounded by a layer of halo, but in Hatice’s mind, his image suddenly became unusually fierce.“Don’t come
“Dad.” Leonard just entered the door, his son immediately ran out to greet him. “Son.” As soon as he saw the little treasure, all of Leonard’s worries immediately disappeared. “Dad, when will you marry my mom, so she can come live with me?” Aaron hugged his father and asked. Leonard kissed his son’s cheek, “Soon. When the time comes, you have to be good, don’t make your mom angry.” “I won’t make Mom angry.” Aaron raised his head and said, “Dad, hurry up and marry my mom, I’m worried, she’ll leave.” “Go? Where?” “I don’t know either, anyway, you have to bring her back quickly, the sooner the better.” Aaron said seriously. Leonard put Aaron down, turned on the TV, “The gunfight has been paused for the past few days because the leader of the Dragon Blade Gang, Kenneth Roberts, has been arrested.” Leonard was shocked to learn that his father was arrested. Or was it because of personal matters? Recently, the news about the Dragon Blade Gang has been increasing.He carried Aaron int
Meanwhile."Auntie, didn't you say you wanted to take me to see Uncle Adrian?" Lucas asked."Uncle Adrian isn't here right now, you can only play with me." Esmeralda sighed. The woman still refused to take action to get Plan A, so she could only resort to this last resort."But I want to go home, my mother will come to find me," Lucas replied."I think you will have to stay here for a while until your mother gives us Plan A." Esmeralda caressed Lucas's small face. "Don't worry, you have a place in Adrian's life, so I won't hurt you. But the prerequisite is that you don't cry."How could Lucas, who was as smart as he was, not understand? He suddenly became scared, afraid that he would never see his mother again."It will be soon," Esmeralda said, handing him a carton of fresh milk.—“Hey, someone just saw Leonard bring Nina to the company.”“This girl is amazing, she has already seduced our boss in such a short time.”“Haven’t you guys found any clues from the charity party last time?
Paige stuttered, unable to explain the reason.“Paige, thank you for telling me that Tawny is not dead, so I can rest assured. I will take her to the best hospital, you don't need to worry about the rest. That way, I can live peacefully with Nina.” Leonard looked at Paige and said coldly.Paige was completely confused, she didn't expect Leonard to say that. She originally thought that he was with Nina only because he felt sorry for Tawny, but now?“Do you have anything else?” Leonard asked Paige.“Aren't you with Nina because of Tawny?” She tried to probe.“After so many years, you still don't understand me, you always judge me based on your emotions. Paige, wake up.” Leonard walked out of the hospital room.“Leonard. Leonard.” Paige chased after him.“That’s right, I’m engaged to Nina. I hope you can come to bless us.” Leonard paused.“What?” Paige stood still, the thing in her hand fell to the ground, “Are you lying to me?” Hot tears rolled down her cheeks, awakening Paige’s emotion
