He withdrew his gaze and asked, "What's going on?"

At the mention of it, Jordan's tone turned a bit impatient. "That brat stirred up trouble again. I've been sick of him for a while now."

The group walked out of the private room.

Lena had noticed something earlier. Hayden's circle was filled with the upper echelons of the elite circle.

In contrast, those around Hunter were heirs from prominent families, the ones at the very core of the privileged class.

They were reckless, arrogant, and well-mannered, yet also very lofty.

She let out a soft sigh and went to return the clothes to Joanna.

Joanna hesitated before asking, "Lena, do you really not care about Hayden anymore?"

Lena changed back into her own clothes and nodded. "I've thought it through. I'm done being a pathetic fool."

Joanna's eyes flickered with complexity as she put away her work uniform. "So, you really went to the Reid Group just for Hunter?"

Lena chuckled and said, "No way! When I first lost my memory, I thought maybe H

    If she could turn back the time, Lena would have dragged herself to the Dawson family last night, even if she had to crawl there while sick.She took a deep breath and completely ignored him.Hayden felt satisfied. He had known Lena for years, but ever since Leah appeared five years ago, everyone had naturally gravitated toward her. She was like a fragile doll, too pitiful to ignore.Unconsciously, everyone had sided with Leah, and it had become completely normal.Everyone thought Lena was just throwing a tantrum. They assumed she would go back sooner or later anyway.When the drinks arrived, everyone thanked Vivian. No one remembered that it was Lena who ordered them.Lena could not be bothered to argue over something so trivial. She focused on completing the documents in her hands.She had an appointment with a real estate agent that afternoon to look at some houses. Since she had received a free 3.2 million dollars last night, there was no reason to keep living in that rundown plac

    Lena acted as if she had not heard a word from them and instead turned to her agent. "I just want a two-unit building. I'm not considering standalone or townhouses. Do you have any other properties available?""Yes, there's a two-unit building right near here. Would you like to take a look now, Ms. Dawson?"Lena nodded and followed the agent without hesitation.Margaret realized she was being ignored and became furious."Lena! What exactly are you doing here today? Can't you just stay out of trouble?!"She walked briskly towards Lena and grabbed her wrist. "We agreed to break off the engagement last night. You've stood so many people up, and you won't answer my calls. Now you show up here like nothing happened. Do you have no shame?!"Lena yanked her hand away, her expression icy. "Are you done, Ms. Sullivan?"Margaret was stunned, caught off guard by this form of address."What... what did you just call me?"Lena smiled at her and said, "Ms. Sullivan. Didn't I say I want to cut ties

    Tonight, Lena stayed at the hotel again—still in Hunter's suite.When Lena left home in the morning, she took the room card with her. After spending the afternoon dealing with the hassle of buying a house, she was too exhausted to think. Without hesitation, she swiped the card and entered the room.She leaned against the sofa and yawned.In a daze, she heard the sound of water coming from the master bedroom's bathroom. As she looked up, she saw Hunter.He was wiping his hair, with only a towel wrapped around his waist.He was not sitting in a wheelchair now, but his feet were touching the ground. However, he walked very slowly.Lena snapped back to her senses in an instant. She immediately stood up from the sofa.Hunter stood still and wiped his hair twice casually. He glanced at the door, probably wondering how she had come in.It was the first time that Lena saw Hunter with his chest exposed. Water droplets rolled down from his neck, following the contours of his muscular body, and

    Lena booked herself a new room. When she was about to lie down and rest, her phone suddenly vibrated. It was a message from the workgroup.She opened it and found that her colleagues in the department were gossiping about her.Someone took a picture of her from the back."Why is Lena staying at a hotel?""Maybe she has plans with someone in the evening. She always has many men around her, right?""She was only able to join the company because of Mr. Reid."Lena raised an eyebrow. This group of people probably forgot about that she was also in the group.She sent a message to the group."How many men are there around me? How come I don't know about that?"The discussion within the group was originally lively, and everyone even started speculating that she had joined the Reid Group by sleeping with Hayden several times. However, when they saw Lena's message, they remembered that she had already been invited into the group.The group instantly became quiet, and Lena directly mentioned th

    Lena recalled the information Hunter had given her. She remembered the relationships very clearly.Hayden's mother, Helen Kent, was a mistress who had successfully replaced the original wife. Helen was indeed beautiful, and once she had forced the first wife out, her position remained secure.However, Helen didn't come from a good family. She had two older sisters and one younger brother.A family with three daughters and one son—it was obvious what kind of dynamic that would create.Travis, the youngest son, was born when the Kent couple were already old. Their only goal was to marry off their daughters for a good price and use the bride price to buy their son a house in Westfell.Unexpectedly, their youngest daughter, Helen, proved to be the most capable. She managed to climb her way up to become a wealthy socialite, bringing the entire Kent family along with her rise.Travis, utterly useless and uneducated, ended up hanging out with Hayden. Even the scraps that fell from Hayden's f

    Lena's eyes darkened as she walked out, carrying her bag. Joanna followed behind her and asked a question."Did you really want this bag?""Is there a problem?"Joanna shook her head, a touch of disappointment flickering in her eyes. She had thought..."Joanna, let's go. Let's go see my new house tonight. I'll cook us dinner."Joanna's lips twitched, and she forced a smile at the corner of her lip. "Okay."After leaving there, Stella directly called Hayden."Hayden, I heard that your uncle was hospitalized. What exactly happened?"Hayden didn't know what was going on. He only heard that Lena caused a big scene in the private room, humiliating Shane. He'd heard that Jordan had even stepped in.But Shane didn't want to say much about why Travis was hospitalized.He also personally asked Travis, who only said it was because of Lena.Lena was really troublesome, causing trouble everywhere.Hayden felt extremely irritated. He didn't really like his relatives from his mother's side, especia

    In the morning, before Lena went out, she made breakfast for herself first.This house now completely belonged to her. She no longer had to grovel at the Dawson family's feet. She still had about 600,000 dollars in savings. From now on, she wouldn't have to beg for help just to cover a 3,200-dollar medical bill.Thinking about the medical expenses, she immediately looked up Hunter's phone number and added him on WhatsApp.But until noon break, her friend request still wasn't accepted, so she could only text him."Mr. Reid, I still owe you 3,200 dollars. Can you add me on WhatsApp?"Hunter did not reply. He had always been so indifferent.Lena sat at her desk for a while. Suddenly, she saw Vivian approaching her, placing a project contract on her desk."You're required to personally oversee the agricultural assistance project in Mossfell. Pack up now and set off immediately. If you can't handle it, you're free to resign. After all, whether you're in the department or not makes no diffe

    She got into the car, and upon realizing that her travel companion was Hunter, that deep-seated fear buried in her bones resurfaced.Hunter had documents on his lap, as he spoke in a calm tone."There is more than the agricultural assistance project in Mossfell. The government announced a tourism development zone bidding just half an hour ago."Tourism development zone?The Mossfell were poor, but there was an advantage to its poverty. Its natural scenery was pristine.In the past, the authorities had hesitated to push for tourism development. Now that they had finally started to warm up to the idea, plenty of companies were eyeing the opportunity.Moreover, there were many locations between Mossfell and Westfell that could be linked together. If this entire region could be developed, the future profits would be immeasurable.Lena immediately turned on her newly bought laptop and searched for nearby attractions in Mossfell.At this moment, Lena finally understood why Hunter had person

    Lena walked into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and randomly picked some ingredients before starting to busy herself.Just thinking about Mr. H's situation, she was a bit absent-minded and accidentally cut her finger. It was a small wound, but it still bled quite a bit.She quickly composed herself and persevered to finish the remaining tasks. Then, she took out the bottle and dropped two pills into it.What she didn't know was that the kitchen door was specially customized, making it impossible to see anything outside from the kitchen. However, from the outside, this door was almost transparent, leaving her every move almost impossible to hide.Lena carried a few small dishes to the table and smiled at him."Mr. Reid, come and eat."Hunter slowly closed the file in his hand and maneuvered the wheelchair over.Lena gave him vegetables and served him a bowl of soup.Hunter, however, did not answer, his gaze fixed on the s

    Lena had never thought about investigating her own amnesia before.She raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, seeing that Hayden had sent another message."I will continue to investigate, you don't have to worry. When you go out, you must be careful. I always feel like someone is following you."Lena got out of bed directly and rummaged through her wardrobe, finding several certificates she had brought with her before. These certificates required strong abilities to pass, so she couldn't have been a fool in the past.It seems that we really need to thoroughly investigate the so-called car accident.The next morning, as soon as she arrived at the Reid Group, she ran into Grady.Grady has been coming frequently lately, and when I saw her, it was that kind of expression with a hidden agenda behind her smile.He followed Lena to the pantry and asked, "I heard that Hunter went to have a meal at a street food stall with you, is he still r

    When Clara walked out of the elevator, she happened to run into Lena, who was about to go downstairs to throw away the garbage.She hurriedly pulled up her collar and tidied up her messy hair.She didn't know that Lena had seen her in the private room last time.Lena was also a bit embarrassed. She really didn't pay attention to the auspicious time before going out. Why did she happen to come out to throw the garbage at this time? It's really...She quickly spoke up to ease the awkwardness, "Um, I parked your car in the garage, I'll give you the car keys later."Clara used to be a very calm person, but now she can't even pretend to be calm.She knew Zander's possessiveness too well. If he intentionally left a trace, it would not disappear for the next week.Not to mention, she was not even wearing a turtleneck tonight, Lena definitely saw it clearly.She opened her mouth to explain, but when it came to her relationship with Zan

    Zander stopped talking and slapped away the hand that was rubbing her face.Clara's back of the hand was slapped painfully, but she didn't mind and instead got off the car and went to the driver's seat. "I'll take you back. You're already the CEO now, don't always go out alone. Many people are watching the Farley family, and you could encounter danger at any time."Zander sat in the back seat, suddenly feeling a bit despondent."You made me die, fine, I didn't want to live anyway.""Chirp!"The car suddenly stopped, and Clara tightly gripped the steering wheel with both hands. "What do you mean?"Zander, as if he had caught her handle, suddenly grinned and said, "So you were afraid of me dying."Clara turned around, wanting to scold him harshly, but upon seeing the madness in his eyes, she closed her mouth and only left with one sentence."I will take you back first.""I didn't go back.""Then I will take you to t

    When she got up from the hot spring pool, she only then noticed the new clothes she could wear on the chair beside her.She slowly put on her clothes, sat on the chair and rested for a while. After soaking in the hot spring, it seemed like every pore had opened up and her mind had become much clearer.She took out her phone to send him a message, but saw Clara asking her where she was. It turned out that an hour had passed without her realizing it.She quickly got up and walked outside, but when she turned a corner, she suddenly collided with a man walking towards her.The man's cheeks were adorned with a silver mask, tall and imposing.Unlike Hunter's cold and dull demeanor, this person's temperament was like a unsheathed blade, as if getting even a little closer could result in being cut.Lena's nose hurt from the collision, so she quickly apologized and hurriedly entered the nearby elevator.The man did not come in, but instead wal

    Lena looked at the flower in front of her and then glanced at the surrounding scenery.The scene that just flashed through my mind is here, and the protagonist inside is her.So her first time with Mr. H was here?Furrowing her brow, she lowered her head to try and recall some details, but the more she thought, the more her head ached.She raised her hand wanting to massage her temples, but a pair of slender hands pressed against her temples and slowly began to rub.Lena wanted to turn around, but the blindfold that covered her eyes fell on them again.She sighed, "Is your body feeling better?""Um."It seems it wasn't good yet, otherwise why would there be so little conversation.She did not struggle and quietly waited for him to tie the cloth before turning around and asking, "Have I been to this place before?"As soon as the words fell, the man's grip on her wrist tightened instantly, so tight that it caused he

    Lena was at a loss and immediately found the villa caretaker watering the garden. She gave some instructions and hurriedly went back home.On the way, she sent several messages to Mr. H, but he didn't reply to any of them.This person used to reply instantly all the time.She was feeling restless at home and decided to go out to the gambling estate to try her luck. As soon as she left, she ran into Clara.Clara dressed up nicely today, with big wavy hair flowing freely, and a waist-cinching little black dress that showcased her figure perfectly.Lena's eyes lit up for a moment, she pressed the elevator button, and the two of them went to the parking lot together."Ms. Farley, were you planning to go on a date?"Clara flicked her wine-red hair and said, "Go somewhere to have fun, do you want to come along?""Where?""Wraith Manor."This is the estate Lena visited last time, and at that time, she overheard the gambl

    Lena's knees were covered in blood as she knelt, unable to overcome the anxiety in her heart.She had been paying attention to the direction where the old man was until she saw the old man go upstairs again. Only then did she take out her phone and reply to the message.How serious was it? Did you take the medicine?The old man pushed open the door where Hunter was, his face very serious."Hunter, this time you stayed at home and rested well."Hunter leaned back on the bed and made a sound of "hmm."The old man knew that his son had always been reticent and felt somewhat helpless. "I don't want this kind of thing to happen again, otherwise Lena won't just be simply kneeling down there," he said.Hunter slowly clenched his hand, which was placed on the bedsheet, as he heard Lena kneeling, but he didn't show any expression on his face.The old man saw that he was indifferent and breathed a sigh of relief.

    Has Hunter really gotten this bad?If Hunter had died...A chill ran down her back, causing her to straighten up even more.After kneeling for another hour, she saw James approaching, and her eyes lit up.James was still wearing the clothes he had on for work, and he quickly placed a bun in front of her."Have a meal."Lena, who was not in the mood to eat, quickly asked, "How is Mr. Reid? Is he still not awake?"I woke up and was being scolded by the old man. I can't go in now. This time, the old man was really scared. Those few people also came over. They will probably talk for a while. The president's phone was also taken away. He might have to rest at home for several days.Lena breathed a sigh of relief, she woke up and that's good.She is really regretful now, Hunter was so good, but because of her...Her eye sockets turned red instantly, and she sniffed.James saw that she seemed like she was about to
