Everyone was shocked when they heard Leah's voice coming from inside.

Still in a state of languor, Margaret suddenly looked up, incredulously gazing at the two people inside.

Dave's hand also tightened, and he heard the continued conversation between the two inside.

"Ms. Dawson, did I make a phone call to threaten the Dawson family? Did I ask them to come and save you?"

Leah nodded, her face filled with a confident expression.

This man had already become familiar in front of the Dawson family, whenever his voice appeared, the Dawson family would definitely be flustered.

Her lips curved up, her face filled with pride, and this pride was captured clearly by the camera.

Margaret's phone rang quickly, and she lowered her head in a daze, taking a long time to answer.

The man asked Leah, "What should we do if no one answers?"

In Leah's mind, this man would soon be dead, so she is not hiding anything now.

    In the hospital, Dave had already been pushed out, and he was just furious.Lena noticed that all the hair at his temples had turned white, indicating how much of an impact seeing that scene had on him.She stood by the bed without saying a word, suddenly feeling some regret.Dave stared blankly at the white ceiling and after a while, he asked, "Has Leah come back?"It had been one evening already, and no one went to pick up Leah.Margaret still loved and respected her so-called husband very much in the past, and at this moment, she cried so much that her eyes were swollen."You suddenly fainted, and I couldn't even remember this matter, let alone the fact that the kidnapping was fake. She will definitely come back on her own. How do you feel now? Are you okay?"Dave's condition was really poor, as if he could not hold on for long at any moment.He closed his eyes, took several deep breaths, and then opened his eyes again, his

    What she had to do now was to figure out how to get the Dawson family's project back.The funds involved in this project amounted to several billion, which was just a medium-sized project for the Reid Group, after all, given the scale of the Reid Group.The contract has already been signed, and the Dawson family is too late to change their minds.The Reid Group also knew about it and couldn't just let go of this opportunity.Although she had been getting along well with Hunter recently, she had no right to think that Hunter would cancel this contract just to save face for her.She took a deep breath, she hadn't slept all night, and now she had to rush to the Reid Group, her face showing exhaustion.When she sat down at her desk, she was still carefully reviewing the project of the Dawson family.Dave valued this project so much because there were no other participating companies in it, and the Dawson family had the final say.T

    He was stunned for several seconds, and then he saw her fumbling to take out the bag she had brought.Because she was blindfolded, she also didn't know which card had five million, so she held all the cards in her hand."You chose the silver one, and there were just five million transferred into it."As soon as the words were spoken, the man forcefully pushed her down and passionately kissed her.All the cards in Lena's hands fell onto the bed. His enthusiasm made her feel a little dazed, and then very pleased.There is no one who doesn't love enthusiastic people, as no one likes to have a warm face and a cold butt.Her lips curved into a smile, and she raised her hand to pat his back.In her perception, this was a waiter who had a previous relationship with her, specifically responsible for customers like her.But after they had a relationship, he fell in love at first sight and had been waiting for her.But she had a b

    Although everyone was sitting in their seats, no one said a word, as if Lena was invisible.Lena didn't break down, she was just anxious about the rule set by Dave that year. A major project required the approval of seventy-five percent of the senior management, let alone making such significant decisions to modify the project after it was completed.In the past, Dave did not exercise his veto power in order to satisfy everyone.Lena furrowed her brow and said to the remaining executives, "I will discuss this matter with my father, and I hope that within three days, all of you can provide a solution."After saying that, she also left the company.Today was indeed her first time coming to the Dawson Group, and it was normal for this group of people to not accept her.To achieve this plan now, the only way is to obtain the executive power of the Dawson Group, as she said.Execution power is not just a matter of Dave's words. It also req

    Lena stayed in the ward for half an hour, but she still didn't mention anything about the execution.She was afraid that Dave would really think that she had taken advantage of the situation, after all, her past actions were indeed terrible.But when he was about to leave, Dave asked a question."Tristin troubled you, didn't he?"Tristin was the senior executive with extensive experience.Lena simply admitted openly, "Well, he has shares in his hands, and now he doesn't listen to me. Dad, actually I want to ask you for the executive power of the company. You can transfer some of the shares to me first, and when this matter is over, I will transfer them back. I never thought about wanting anything from the Dawson family."As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a trace of sadness flicker in Dave's eyes, as if he had been touched by pain.Lena had nothing more to say, so she just stood there dryly.It was a long time before he

    The senior executives were feeling pleased with their proposal, but they saw Hunter put down the documents in his hand with a nonchalant tone."Did you finish talking?""That's it, that's it. I know you're busy, President. Just leave this kind of person to me to handle!"Hunter called James in.James pushed his glasses up on his nose and said with a smile."You were fired."The senior management thought they had misheard, straightened their backs, looked at James, and then looked at Hunter.Hunter never looked up at him, maintaining a cold and indifferent posture.The high-ranking official's cheeks turned bright red, and their lips trembled several times."President, my recent business has been fairly successful. I made money on several projects and I want to know why."Hunter put down the pen in his hand and pulled out a few reports from the side, his tone was very indifferent."Private account became publ

    Arriving at the Moonlight Lounge, Lena considerately lowered the wheelchair and helped him onto it, then pushed him towards the private room.Just then, her phone rang, and it was a message from Mr. H.I was very happy and wanted to kiss you.Lena's face suddenly became hot. This person, really, spoke too bluntly.She didn't have time to reply to the other person's message, so she pushed Hunter into the private room. When she opened the door, she only then realized that Zander, Emmett, and Jordan were inside.These four people seemed to gather frequently.As a woman, she really didn't want to stay alone in the compartment.Hunter seemed to notice her discomfort and said to her, "You go play outside."This tone is like coaxing a child.Lena didn't go to see Emmett either, after all, every time this person saw her, he would shout and threaten her, so after receiving Hunter's command, she immediately left the private room.

    His fingertips were bitten by him, and his voice still carried a hoarseness immersed in the affair."You said you came with your boss?"Lena was feeling a bit tired and yawned, "Hmm, yeah.""How are other people?""It was good.""Compared to me?"Lena's eyes opened instantly. The lights in the compartment were dim, and she could only see a rough silhouette of him. His figure looked exceptionally good, and no matter how she looked at him, she didn't feel shortchanged."There is no comparison, you two are extremes. He, that person, is quite cold, indifferent to everyone, like the snow on the high mountains. You, on the other hand, are like a red plum, passionately likable. My boss can only admire you from a distance, not defile you.""How do you know that he is exactly as you say? Maybe you just don't understand, just like you don't understand me."Lena frowned and cupped his face with both hands. "I didn't know you, so ca

    She immediately thought of the drink, but with such a big party, it was not easy to accurately deliver the alcohol to her hands.Her gaze searched the scene and soon spotted a familiar person, Hayden.After seeing her, Hayden also immediately walked over."Lena, what happened to you? Are you feeling unwell?"Lena opened her mouth to say something, but a surge of heat suddenly rushed up, as if her skin was being bitten by countless ants.That kind of itch seemed to overflow from the deepest part of the bone, and just scratching it lightly couldn't relieve anything at all.She lowered her eyelashes and shook her head.Many of the people who came tonight were insiders. If she got involved with Hayden in front of everyone, rumors of her being a "licking dog" would immediately spread like wildfire.She instinctively turned around, wanting to find a place where no one was and hide.But Hayden raised his hand and grabbed her wrist."Lena, what's wrong with you? If you're not feeling well, I

    At 7 o'clock in the evening, Lena appeared at the entrance of the charity gala on time with the invitation letter.As soon as she got off the car, she saw Lillian, who was dressed exquisitely and beautifully.Lillian didn't expect to see Lena here, as she shouldn't have received an invitation letter.Lena did not greet her and handed the invitation to the staff next to her, then walked in gracefully.She didn't dress so flamboyantly tonight, wearing a black sequined mermaid skirt, paired with a silk blouse that perfectly cinched her slender waist, making her look like a mermaid that had just come ashore.Lillian stood still for a moment, not rushing to find trouble, but instead made a phone call to Hayden."Bro, are you really not coming over? I saw Lena at the party."Hayden's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he smiled, "I came over now, Hayden, don't go looking for trouble with her anymore."It seemed as if all the men in the world were doting on Lena, and this was something Li

    Lena, upon seeing Lillian again, lost all appetite and went straight to take a shower before lying in bed to sleep.The next day, she woke up and went to the company. After having a meeting with the senior management, her attention was drawn to a project recently launched by the government.This project could only make a profit of one billion, so those big companies wouldn't come to compete.Her fingertips tapped on the project and she looked at Maxwell beside her, asking, "Who was in charge of the government bidding for this project?""He was recently promoted and tonight he is going to attend a large charity event, it seems that the Gomery family is the host."The Gomery family had a relatively strict family style, as many members of the family were involved in politics.Mr. Xie and Cayden were almost the top leaders back in the day. After both of them stepped down, the younger generation gradually started to emerge.The Gomery family's Jordan was the new heir, managing companies th

    Her lips trembled several times, her eyes seemed to devour Lena alive, fiercely and menacingly like an evil spirit.Lena frowned and saw a floor covered with flowers, which made her very angry.Lillian pursed her lips coldly and then said deeply."You wait for me."After saying that, she turned around to pay, and asked someone to send all these plum blossoms to Palm Bay.Lena stood still and instantly felt a complete absence of any emotions.Clara patted her shoulder."Pay more attention during this period, I felt that she was not quite normal."Lena tugged at her lips, far from normal, she felt like she had been chased by a mad dog.Taking a deep breath, I decided not to buy flowers anymore and just planned to go home with the little bit of food I was carrying.Lillian arrived at Palm Bay with a bunch of plum blossoms in her hands and happily handed them to the servant."You all be careful and put these plum blossoms in a good vase."The servant couldn't help but say, "The best bottl

    When the car stopped in Westfell Palm Bay, she got off first and then reached out to help him.Hunter's hand curled up fiercely, as if it had been burned by something.Lena was a bit speechless, thinking to herself that when you were confused in the car, you were still holding her hand tightly, but now that you're sober, you're being picky.She took several steps back, signaling the others in Palm Bay to help.Hunter was helped out of the car, still holding the plum blossom in his hand.Lena's heart suddenly softened, well, considering that he did indeed share the same taste as Mr. H."Mr. Reid, then I will go back first. Remember to take your medicine and don't strain your body.""Hmm."He had already been pushed in, without looking back.Lena also didn't want to stay here and see his expression, so she just left.This place was not easy to catch a taxi.In no time, a car was driven out in Palm Bay, saying it was going to take her back.She did not refuse, after all, it was still sno

    In Hunter's sight, a thin figure approached from a distance, and because this world was too white, the red she held in her hand appeared particularly eye-catching.When Lena got on the car, she first brushed off the snowflakes from her hair.Then I closed the car door and handed him the folded plum blossom.Hunter didn't answer, but instead looked at the faint traces of snow on the petals.Lena thought he was afraid of the cold, so she raised her hand to shake off the snowflakes. However, she heard him ask, "What if this tree has an owner?"Almost instinctively, she answered, "Take it off for you, and its owner will be you."Hunter was about to reach out, but upon hearing these words, his hand clenched instantly, and the veins on the back of his hand tightened.Lena, who had originally just blurted out the words, quickly asked, "What's wrong?" when she noticed that his expression didn't seem right.He lowered his head and made a "hmm" sound, took the plum blossom, and didn't forget to

    The heavy snow was still falling outside the window, not far away was a wasteland, and in the distance, there was a hazy gray sky that seemed endless.Hunter's fingers intertwined with hers, the warmth of their palms resembling a simmering volcano of silence.Lena also didn't want to blame the patient, as he said, let him be.Time passed slowly, and the heat on his body did not decrease but instead increased.She finally couldn't sit still anymore and had to feed him water.He slowly opened his eyes, with a mist in his eyes, as if he had no idea what had happened."Mr. Reid, James also didn't know where to go. Let me drive you back first. Although the place you live doesn't have medicine, at least it will be more comfortable to lie down there."Hunter slowly loosened his own tie, as if it had become unbearably hot.Lena quickly covered his collarbone and re-tied his tie.Hunter was always meticulous in his daily life, even buttoning up the top button of his shirt.She lowered her head

    Because he was a patient, Lena couldn't be too heartless, so she didn't do anything and let him hold onto her.She saw Hunter, who was so fragile for the first time, and thought that he was unattainably strong. However, she didn't expect that after falling ill, he would also cuddle up in a woman's arms.His body was very hot, as hot as a fireball.Lena suddenly remembered a few days ago when Mr. H fell ill and lived alone in that dark little building.He was completely different from Hunter. When he got sick, he wanted to hide himself, licking his wounds in solitude.But Hunter doesn't seem to have deliberately hidden these?She didn't know if her feelings were right, and she didn't dare to move at all.Three hours later, the car stopped at the destination.Lena looked at the ruins outside and a wave of anger surged within her."James, are you sure it was here?""Hmm."She was so angry that her chest trembled several times. "This place has turned into a ruin, you can't even tell where

    The next day, she woke up very early and felt that the body next to her was burning hot.She quickly propped herself up and reached out to touch his forehead, "Mr. Reid, you had a fever!"The fireplace in the room was burning all night, and the temperature was very comfortable. How could he suddenly have a fever?Hunter slowly opened his eyes and made a sound of "hmm".Lena was extremely worried. Last night, when the two of them went to sleep, they only took off one jacket.She quickly grabbed his coat and put it on him."I'll freshen up quickly first, and then I'll go ask the front desk if they have any medicine."She helped him to wash up, and accidentally touched the skin between his wrist with her fingertips, which was scorching hot.Hunter's entire face was red, with drooping eyelashes, making him look like a sickly beauty.Lena quickly finished washing up herself and pushed him downstairs.She ran to the front desk and asked, "Do you have any medicine? We have someone with a fev
