Dave used to not care about Lena's affairs, as they were just petty jealousy and minor quarrels between children.

But this time, involving the company's interests, he could no longer stand by and do nothing.

He immediately made a phone call to Lena.

Lena had previously blocked both Margaret and Randy, but she had forgotten to block her supposedly father.

Seeing the flashing message, she was somewhat surprised and pressed the answer button. On the other end, Dave's voice came through.

"Lena, what were you doing?"

This was a tone of questioning and seeking punishment.

"Is there something wrong?"

"Something's happened! Why did you have to cause trouble over at Mossfell? Now Leah's car is surrounded by those farmers, and since they can't find you, they're taking it out on Leah. I didn't care how you messed with me before, but this time Leah was representing the company. Only if the agricultural assistance mission is successful, can the company get a share in the tourism development. Are y

    The person in charge took a deep breath."Ms. Lena has already sold hundreds of thousands of pounds of apples from Stonemarsh. The CEO of the Reid Group also took an interest in a few locations in Stonemarsh and decided to develop tourism there. Initially, we had two locations in Mossfell that were shortlisted, but Ms. Dawson's ten million dollars satisfied the farmers' appetite. They believed that the Reid Group had unimaginable wealth, so they directly offered a billion dollars to secure those two locations. However, the Reid Group declined the offer, and now both locations in Mossfell have been kicked out of the development zone."Leah heard the leader blaming herself, but she didn't get angry, she just pretended to be weak and leaned on the side."Sorry, I had intended to use ten million to minimize everyone's losses, not to break the contract with my sister or to consider that it would fuel their greed."She seemed very innocent when she spoke, but upon careful reflection, when L

    Lena had just woken up when she heard a noise outside.Her fever still hadn't gone down, and she had lost five kilograms.When she went out, she saw Charlotte running excitedly towards her, grabbing her hand and quickly walking out."Hurry, hurry, hurry! There are many fruit farmers outside looking for you. They said they want to give you a banner!"Lena was a little surprised, a banner?She was pulled to the hotel entrance and saw a bustling crowd standing outside. Leading the group were those few young people.Everyone's faces were filled with excitement, as if it was New Year.She was still a little confused, and then she saw several fireworks exploding in the air."Lena, this is everyone's heartfelt gesture, you must accept it, we have all signed it.""We heard that a big boss has set his sights on this piece of land and wants to develop it. Many of our properties have been targeted. In the future, when you come to Pinedell County for tourism, it won't cost you a penny. We will de

    Leah's chest heaved with anger as she maliciously glared at Lena, who was surrounded by people.Lena was surrounded by Hunter, whose temperament was too cold for anyone to dare to stand in front of him. Everyone stood behind him.There was only one Lena beside him, as if the two of them looked the most compatible.Leah's hand on the side slowly clenched, with the taste of blood in her mouth.She had previously vowed to take away all the happiness that belonged to Lena, but now everyone is praising Lena, making herself look like a clown jumping around.Dave stood by her side, still holding his ground, waiting for Lena to approach him and start a conversation.As the photo shoot was about to end, the journalists were about to leave, and Lena showed no intention of coming to greet him.Dave couldn't hold it anymore until the person next to him reminded him."Dave, don't you say anything to your daughter? How come she is representing the Reid Group? If she was representing the Dawson Grou

    After spending another two hours with this group of people, Lena finally got into Hunter's car and planned to return to Westfell.But all the people of Stonemarsh stood outside, their faces filled with reluctance."Lena, when we have developed it over here, you must come and take a look.""My family received several tens of millions of resettlement funds this time. I will go to Westfell to buy a house and then come to see you.""Daughter, is the wound on your back better now? Last time, I was impulsive and shouldn't have hit you with a rake."With the car window wide open, the voices of the fruit farmers could be heard. Although they had only spent a few days together, they truly didn't want to part with Lena.No one had ever been able to pull the Stonemarsh apple out of the mud, and it even turned this place into a tourist development area.Decades-old grudges finally came to an end at this moment, and they no longer had to care about the people over at Mossfell.They had already wan

    Lena's footsteps didn't stop at all, and she went straight back home.Margaret sneered, knowing that sooner or later she would return to the Dawson family. It remained to be seen how long she could pretend this time.The next morning, Lena went to the Reid Group to report.She lost a lot of weight during her one-week business trip and just ran into Hayden as soon as she got off the elevator.A trace of disgust flashed in Hayden's eyes as he pretended not to see her, intentionally walking a few steps ahead of her, thinking that this would make Lena sad.But Lena didn't say a word, and didn't give any feedback to her colleagues about the schedule of the task.She completed it very successfully, and the email for a salary raise has already been sent.Vivian heard that she had received a salary increase just by completing a farming task, and she rolled her eyes. During the lunch meeting, she couldn't help but start attacking."I hope everyone in the department will also work harder. After

    Lena's gaze remained on her phone.The next second, the phone was snatched away by someone, and Hayden was so angry that his chest was heaving."Who are you chatting with so obsessively? I was asking you a question, are you blind? Someone wants to take advantage of me."Lena's face didn't look good. She opened her hands and said, "Give me back my phone."Hayden felt even worse in her heart because her attitude was so cold, making it seem like he was chasing after her.But between them, wasn't it always Lena who made the first move?Why didn't she seem like she was pretending this time?A moment of panic crossed my mind, but I remembered how Lena had been willing to jump into the river for him in the past, and love doesn't just disappear so easily.She was definitely pretending not to care.His lips curved into a smile as he raised his phone high. "Lena, I must admit that your little trick this time really got to me. Did you find someone to help you come up with this plan? You've truly

    Lena had no strength to struggle, and the fresh blood kept flowing down her forehead.The man had already torn open her blouse and was about to proceed further, but suddenly felt a strong force kicking him forcefully.He was kicked and sent flying, his back hitting a sharp edge, immediately spitting out a mouthful of blood.The door of the men's restroom had already been closed, and Jordan, dressed in all black, stood outside, lighting a cigarette. He said to the others who were about to enter the restroom, "Go somewhere else, there's a private matter that needs to be resolved here."Jordan was already not someone to be messed with, and now with his narrow phoenix eyes, he looked even more intimidating.After someone recognized him, he got scared and quickly left with his friends.Jordan took a puff of his cigarette, leaned against the wall, and didn't forget to give instructions to the people inside."Your leg was still undergoing rehabilitation, be careful."Hunter was squatting nex

    When Lena woke up, she felt that the sunlight was a bit dazzling.Surrounded by unfamiliar decorations, she got up from the bed and raised her hand to touch her forehead.Ouch, a bandage was wrapped around it.This bedroom was very spacious, exuding a luxurious style in every corner.She suddenly remembered the person she had seen before she lost consciousness, it was Hunter.I looked up and indeed saw Hunter at the door.He was still sitting in a wheelchair, holding a bowl of white porridge in his hand, slowly moving over and placing it on the bedside table."How are you doing?"It is false to say that she was not moved, she really thought she had failed last night."Are you feeling better, Mr. Reid? Is your leg okay?"Although she was in a daze, she still remembered him kicking the man away. His leg was still undergoing rehabilitation, and if anything went wrong, she would become a criminal for eternity."No problem."He picked up the porridge next to him and placed it in front of h

    After Lena got on the car, she was still feeling palpitations from the recent turmoil caused by Hunter.Hunter was a naturally cold person, I guess it wasn't intentional.She just happened to encounter him with low blood sugar, which scared her and made her break out in a cold sweat. Now her back is all wet.Lena raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, took out her phone and called Mr. H again, but still no one answered.She still doesn't know if Grady really caught Mr. H, but she doesn't dare to bet.She found Grady's address and drove slowly over there.But upon arrival, I found out that Grady had already gone to the Reid family.In Grady's mind, Hunter had already died, and the Reid family would soon be in chaos. The old master would definitely appoint a new heir.And this person could only exist between him and his own younger brother, Marvin Reid.Hayden's thing is unreliable, the old man had long been disappointed

    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.
