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

    The two of them were arguing when they heard Hunter speak, "If there's nothing important, I'll go back first."Emmett took a deep breath and pointed over with his hand."Look, just look at his attitude. Whenever we mention women, he wants to leave. Who does he expect to wait for him? It's already a miracle that he hasn't married his computer. I think he'll just spend the rest of his life clinging to the money he earns."Hunter turned around directly, too lazy to bother.Lena silently pushed his wheelchair and found it amusing when the compartment door behind her closed.Hunter heard her soft laughter and felt a bit gloomy, "Is it really that funny?"These words seemed to have sprung out from between the teeth.Lena's laughter immediately stopped."I just felt that Mr. Wright made a lot of sense, but there's nothing wrong with Mr. Reid either. There are very few people like you in today's society."Treating emotions since

    The signing of the shares took place the next day, and Randy was very excited, talking to her non-stop.Lena appeared somewhat indifferent, only after confirming that all of Tristin's shares had been transferred to Randy's name, did she finally relent and allow Randy to transfer the money back.After the transaction was over, Randy even reminded Tristin to get on the car."Tristin, then I wish you all the best in the future."Tristin's face wore a fake smile as he raised his hand to pat his shoulder, "Take good care of the company from now on. Under your leadership, the company will definitely do better."Randy nodded and only turned around to look at Lena after the car had driven away."Lena!"He looked at her with excitement and admiration on his face, "How did you do it? You're so amazing!"Lena looked at the sincere face and rubbed it on his head.She knew that Tristin would definitely have a trick up his sleeve, but at the moment, she was not sure what the trick was.Randy still

    For the next week, Lena stayed quietly at home.She inquired about the situation at the company and during the past week, Tristin was extremely pleased with himself and replaced all the people he couldn't stand.A large portion of the senior management supported Tristin, but there were also a few conscientious individuals who remained neutral. Now, all the neutral individuals have been dismissed, so everyone has no choice but to call Lena."Ms. Dawson, what do you suggest we do? We have also been with the company for many years."And at this age, they were too lazy to bother with job hopping, and if they were to bid farewell to the workplace at this point, they would feel somewhat reluctant.In their view, the position of the president is similar to that of an ancient emperor. It is necessary for the top executives to take their positions, and once they succeed, they will have the power of the dragon, bringing immense wealth and prosperity. Clearly, Tristin does not like these neutral

    Hayden stumbled back home and, before even stepping inside, heard Helen's crying."What does she want in the end?! How long does she want to torment me?! I've had enough of her!!"Helen has been highly stressed recently, and whenever she closes her eyes, all she sees is other people mocking her.My husband got involved with my older sister, and everyone was watching her as a joke.Husband Branden couldn't stand her going crazy at home, so he never came back.Helen wanted to go and complain to the old man, but after going multiple times, the old mansion started refusing to see anyone.She could only stay at home and argue with Stella every day, like a crazy person.Hayden was soaked with water when he entered the living room and was coincidentally hit by Helen's ashtray.He didn't even feel the pain, and took several steps back, staring blankly as the blood flowed on the ground.Helen was startled and quickly took a few steps forward. "Hayden, are you okay?"Hayden raised his hand in a

    Lena, however, ignored him and turned around to leave.Hayden stood in place for a while, and when he came out, Lena's figure was long gone.He drove back in a daze, but because his mind was completely elsewhere, he and the car ended up flipping into the river.When he saw the river water fiercely pouring into the car, the first thing he thought of was not to escape, but to take out his phone and call Lena.He remembered all the kindness Lena had shown him before, and now he truly regrets it.He had argued back then that the first time with Leah was a set-up, but Lena asked about every time after that.He couldn't come up with an answer. At that time, the thought he held was, anyway, since he was already asleep, what difference would it make to sleep a few more times.And Lena loved him so much, she would definitely forgive him.He had always believed rationally that no matter what mistakes he made, as long as he turned back, Lena would definitely be waiting for him in the same place.

    Lena leaned against his arm and coquettishly, seemingly just then noticing the woman across from them."Hunter, who is this?"The woman tightly bit her lip and forcefully slammed the knife and fork in her hand, "I also want to ask you this question, who are you?""I was Hunter's girlfriend, and we had just recently started dating. Hunter, do you want to eat this?"She used a fork to pick up a piece of steak and fed it to Hunter's mouth.Hunter didn't say a word, and Lena quickly leaned in, whispering in his ear, "Mr. Reid, you should eat, otherwise this play won't be able to continue."Hunter's gaze fell on her scarf, and a flicker of something quickly passed through his eyes. He wanted to avert his head as usual, but Lena directly held his face and brought it back.Her hands were placed on his face, with a smile still lingering in her eyes. She then shook the steak on the fork and said, "Eat it."Their noses were almost touching, their breaths intertwining.Lena's gaze fell openly on

    Lena woke up from the car and went straight home to sleep until the next day. Then she took a bath and looked at her refreshed self in the mirror before finally giving Hunter a call."Mr. Reid, were you free tonight? I wanted to invite you for a meal."Last night, she had already chosen the restaurant and checked the dishes that the restaurant would prepare. There was no seafood, all of which were in line with Hunter's taste.Hunter held the phone and remained silent.Lena thought he was busy, just about to make up for it, when she heard him say, "My father has arranged another blind date for me."Lena was taken aback. If the old man had known about the words she had said earlier, he would have been aware that she and Hunter were now a couple, yet he continued to arrange blind dates in this situation. There was only one reason for this - the Reid family looked down on Lena.Lena had said that she would protect Hunter from any romantic entanglements, so now it was certainly her duty to

    Randy's face turned red with anger, "You!"But he didn't know how to refute, he pursed his lips, not wanting to cause trouble for Lena, and could only stand in front of her in a protective stance, "Lena, let's go."He had already packed up all his things.The eight billion that Dave used to buy the land back then was his own, so it also depleted all the cash flow. Now, the money from selling the land naturally goes into Randy's account. Although he has money, he feels empty inside.When Lena got on the car, he was still feeling a little disappointed."Lena, I will transfer all this money to you. In the future, we won't come to the company anymore. I might have to go back to school, and you shouldn't think about working either. As long as you don't spend this money recklessly, it will be enough for you to live a good life for the rest of your life."Twenty billion, he didn't want to keep a single penny for himself, he gave it all to Lena.Lena was feeling a bit tired at the moment, aft

    Rodrigo sneered and touched his own eyes.The scene when the bottle smashed into his eye years ago played repeatedly in his mind like a nightmare. He dared not go out to see people, hiding in dark corners every day. Now, upon hearing that Dave had died and the Dawson family was in chaos, he finally had a chance.He wanted to make Lena's life worse than death, to make her lose her eyes, lose her legs, and be confined to the bed every day, like a rag doll.Just thinking about it, Rodrigo got excited and let out a hoarse laughter.But this laughter was like a strong wind blowing into a torn cloth pocket, making it particularly terrifying.Leah quieted down at this moment and curled up in the corner, with a puddle already scared out from under her pants.The more disheveled she was, the more she hated Lena.If it were not for Lena, her world would have been a smooth road.Two days later, Tristin came out of the police station. His personal matter had now become known to everyone, and both

    After Lena returned home, she investigated the people who had contact with Tristin and, surprisingly, she actually found one.When Dave was still alive, Tristin had always wanted to take full control of the company, but he had a small number of shares in his hands, so he could only rely on his seniority.Later, he got involved with Guerrero Capital, and he became much more tough.And this Guerrero Capital originally had no connection with the Dawson Group, the reason for supporting Tristin was entirely because Lena accidentally offended the son of Guerrero Capital five years ago.As for how she offended him, no one is clear, but that young nobleman held a grudge against her.When Lena saw this, she only felt a headache. She didn't even know who the so-called young master was.She continued to follow this line of investigation and finally managed to find a name - Rodrigo Sandoval.She pondered for a while in her mind, but couldn't remember, so she called Clara.Now Clara has become her
