Lena hung her head down, feeling intense pain all over her body. When another whip struck her chest, she even felt like spitting out blood."Lillian, did you find it amusing to do this?"Lillian heard this and became so angry that she tightened her grip on the whip. "Of course it's interesting! Lena, it's your own doing! You're just a despicable person, seducing my brother wasn't enough, now you want to seduce the person I like. Today, I will ruin your face and see how you try to seduce them with that."She quickly approached, grabbed the dagger next to her, and was about to swipe it across Lena's face.But Lena spoke up, "Aren't you the one who wants Hunter's heart? I can help you, and I have a boyfriend, Mr. Reid himself knows that I have a boyfriend, just as you said, I approached him for the sake of my company, after he knows my true identity, he will only despise me."She lowered her eyelashes, her face expressionless. "In my eyes, he is far less important than my company. You wh
She seemed to have slept for a very long time.The scenes in the dream were like various fragments piled up and mixed together.The last scene of the dream stayed in a pitch-black cave, with only a beam of light shining down from a high place, and no one went to appreciate this beautiful Tyndall effect.In the dream, she seemed very young, around seven or eight years old. She kept patting a boy's cheek, asking him not to sleep.But his injuries were too severe, and his body grew colder and colder.On the second day of being trapped, she bit her own wrist and fed him the flowing blood.A seven or eight-year-old child, unexpectedly thought of using this method to save people.She fed him intermittently with fresh blood for two days, and the person in her arms finally woke up.Seven or eight-year-old Lena had a very pale complexion, but she held her face in her hands."Are you okay? You scared me. Don't worry, someone will come to rescue us.""What did you feed me?""Blood, it can save l
Lena was taken aback, suddenly remembering that every encounter with Mr. H had been intense, and afterwards she would secretly take medication, so it was impossible for her to be pregnant.She lowered her eyelashes and tugged at her lips, "It shouldn't be possible, we took precautions."Speaking so openly like this, it is evident that there was truly no interest in Hayden.Hayden's fingers on one side curled gently, and then he took out a five million dollar check."Last night, Lillian voluntarily confessed to Hunter. This was passed on to you by Hunter, who also arranged for foreign experts for you. Those whip marks will not leave any scars. Do you need to go to the hospital?"Lena looked at the check in front of her, and in her mind, she could imagine Hunter's carefree face.After receiving a beating, this money is not to be wasted in vain.She took the check and flashed a smile, "Please thank Mr. Reid for me."Hayden was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, so he offered words
Some things are deeply engraved in one person's memory, while for another person, they are just a gentle breeze on their fingertips. It's unfair in some cases.Lena felt his emotions and quickly grasped his hand."Have I ever done anything to hurt you in the past?"As soon as this sentence came out, she clearly felt his body become more stiff.Lena actually didn't know much about her past, except for being known as Hayden's lapdog in the public eye, she seemed to have left no other clues."No, you were fine."She breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile reappeared on her face."I'm sorry if I never said sorry to you. In my dreams, I always seem to be a young child, maybe around seven or eight years old. If you had liked me since then, it would mean you have liked me for many years, wouldn't it? Speaking of which, I remember Hayden mentioning that during my high school years, someone stole my school uniform, so I had to wear different clothes for my graduation photo. I was the only one i
Lena took a few more steps towards him, but every time she approached, Randy would quickly step back.Her face became even more unpleasant, and her tone was very serious, "Stay where you are and don't move."Did he smoke? Just smell his fingers and you'll know.Randy instantly dared not move.After Lena approached, she grabbed his finger and took a sniff, there was a very distinct smell of smoke on it."Randy, have you learned to lie?"Randy was startled all over and immediately started apologizing, "I was just afraid that you would be angry."Lena put down his hand and said, "This is not to be repeated.""Lena, I didn't smoke anymore. I had some issues at school and my mood wasn't great, I'm sorry."Seeing his sincere apology, Lena didn't know what else to say, so she just raised her hand and ruffled his hair.But after leaving here, she still went to school the next day to find out if Randy was really busy with school matters.She didn't know Randy's major, so it was difficult to fi
The police officer, seeing her act so decisively, quickly pulled her aside and said, "Ms. Dawson, calm down first."Lena was really infuriated to the point of losing her sanity, raising her hand to rub her forehead."Mr. Police Officer, I am willing to fully cooperate with your investigation."In the past month, she ignored Randy, thinking that as long as he followed Keon, there would be no problem. She didn't expect that he would cause such a big trouble.She quickly called Keon and only then found out that Keon's family had been sick recently and had been remotely guiding Randy.Randy had completed all of his online courses well, so he didn't say much in front of Lena.Keon's tone was cautious and serious, "Ms. Dawson, what happened?"It would be better if fewer people know about this matter now, after all, the Dawson Group is currently going through a turbulent situation. If it is known by others, the stock will plummet.After Lena gave a few perfunctory responses, she hung up the
After Lena left, she didn't have time to think about anything else. She immediately checked the house Randy had recently rented.When she arrived at the villa, she indeed saw Leah.At this moment, the room was filled with sunshine. Leah, with disheveled hair and a dirty face, sat on the floor, constantly giggling.Lena approached and kicked her, causing her to fall over.Leah's head bumped into the corner of the table, causing her to grimace in pain, "Who?!"As soon as Lena saw her, hatred instantly erupted in her eyes."Lena!"She wobbled to her feet and pounced directly.But she was malnourished recently, and she was no match for Lena at all.Lena gave a hard kick, sending her several meters away, and then stepped on Leah's face.Leah lay there in humiliation, with a shoe on her cheek.Lena exerted some force and spoke in a cold tone, "Did you induce Randy to get involved with that thing? Were you manipulating public opinion behind the scenes?"Leah's eyes were filled with malice as
Leah's eyes were filled with fear, desperately trying to open the door, but her hands started to disobey.She didn't expect to end up in this situation. Joanna had promised her that if they worked together, they could definitely make Lena fall from the clouds, right?Why did you deceive her?"Joanna, why did you deceive me?"Joanna's lips curved, and the kind-hearted person squatted beside her."I didn't deceive you, I said that as long as you take the blame, I would get rid of Lena. Now the Dawson Group is almost finished, Randy is also on the verge of collapse. Isn't what I promised you about to come true? And shouldn't you pay a little price? At least we shouldn't let Lena suspect me, right?"Leah, with only a last trace of consciousness, slowly reached out and grabbed a corner of her pants."I beg you, don't treat me like this, don't treat me like this, give me the antidote, the antidote!"Joanna got up and kicked her, "To be superior, one must have the ability to be bad. You are
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
