Bianca became furious upon hearing this, but she didn't know Alessia's exact background, so she could only speak up to defend her, retorting, "Hmph, you're dreaming! If Alessia wants to expand LR Studio in Canada, my family will help. We don't need Ramirez family, which is on the verge of collapse."
"Well said, Miss Carter," Riley chimed in to defend as well.
Margaret sneered, "The Carter is indeed powerful, but, Miss Carter, isn't your brother in charge of the Carter’s affairs? And Dr. Riley, even if your medical skills are superb, do you have enough money?"
Margaret spoke with arrogance. However, she failed to notice the drastic change in Harrison's expression, who had been calm until now.
Harrison seemed to have reached his limit and unexpectedly lashed out, forcefully slapping Margaret twice and cursing, "Stupid woman, shut up!"
Margaret was stunned by Harrison's sudden
"Ava, you venomous woman! It's because you brought back Alessia that my son ended up with a crippled leg. I've put in so much effort, and instead of reaping rewards, I've caused myself trouble. You're really capable. I'll compete with you."Ava looked at Margaret without dodging and instead confronted her, engaging in a physical struggle.At this point, she wasn't afraid to confront her openly.Ava said, "Margaret, what are you accusing me of? Whose fault is it if you didn't raise your son properly? My friend saw Nolan return to the country yesterday, I don't know what trouble he's brewing this time. Don't end up losing his life.""What did you say? Nolan returned to the country?" Margaret stopped her actions nervously upon hearing this, forgetting about the scratches on her face caused by Ava.Margaret released her grip first, and after Ava had vented her anger, she showed no in
Alessia gently patted Bianca's back and asked with concern, "Are you okay?""I'm fine, maybe I just ate something bad," Bianca shook her head.Alessia nodded and looked at the bar street in front of her.Seizing the opportunity, Riley handed a handkerchief to Bianca.The handkerchief was blue, with a faint scent of mint.It was rare for someone to carry a handkerchief nowadays, and it was even rarer for a man to do so. Bianca was stunned for a moment before accepting it.She wiped her mouth clean and was about to speak when she noticed Riley looking at her hesitantly."Do you need something?" Bianca asked.Riley furrowed his brows and lowered his voice to ask, "How long has it been since your last period?"Bianca was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, "Uncle, you don't think I'm pregnant, do
Riley walked all the way towards the direction of the restroom until he reached a quiet place where no one was around, then he let go of Bianca.His fox-like eyes were filled with anger as he questioned displeasedly, "Bianca, do you even know what you were doing just now?"Bianca arrogantly lifted her small face, smiled recklessly, and provocatively said, "Uncle, what I do seems to be none of your business, right? What relationship do we have anyway?"Riley choked, recalling the words he said to Bianca before in the bar.He couldn't be with Bianca.His momentum involuntarily weakened, and he replied, "Friendship.""Oh, friendship," Bianca smiled mockingly, extended a finger, poked Riley's strong chest, and said flirtatiously, "Sorry, uncle, I, Bianca Carter, have too many friends, and I don't need you. So, uncle, you'd better stay wherever you feel comfortabl
Alessia looked around, frowning at the disappearance of Enzo.This man intentionally lured her here.However, she had already predicted this situation when she left the bar with him.So, she wasn't worried.Alessia calmly glanced at the men in front of her and calmly asked, "Who are you guys?""Miss La Rosa, who we are is none of your concern. You just need to know that you've offended someone," the lead man arrogantly replied, picking his teeth with a toothpick and making a gesture, signaling the other men to attack Alessia.Alessia dodged left and right, and after the scuffle, not one of the men managed to even touch her clothes.The lead man seemed surprised by Alessia's skill and began to take her seriously.He dropped the toothpick and grabbed a wooden stick to join the fray himself.With the
Not close?Seen each other a few times?They already have children, and not just one, but three. Can she still say they're not familiar?" Dominic took a deep breath once again.Not far away, Alessia got into Enzo's car and, in no time, they drove away, along with the business car.Tiffany asked with concern, "Dom, Miss La Rosa left with Enzo. Is everything okay? Should we follow them and check?"Dominic didn't answer immediately, he turned and walked inside.In this silence, Tiffany thought that the matter with Alessia was over, and Dominic wouldn't bring it up again.She never expected that, just as they sat down, Dominic suddenly said, "Don't worry about it, I'm not familiar with her."Tiffany, who sat down with him, was stunned for a moment before understanding what Dominic meant.However she i
The iron gate opened with a creak, and Enzo looked up to meet Alessia's face, which was still clean and expressionless, just as it was before entering the courtyard. If there was any difference, it was that she now held a wooden stick, stained with blood."Hey, Miss La Rosa," Enzo said, looking away from the stick, waving his hand in a rather forced manner.Alessia made way without any extra expression, gesturing for Enzo to come in.Enzo's face immediately turned bitter, and he chuckled awkwardly, "Um, maybe I shouldn't come in after all!"Alessia didn't say anything, just looked at him.This made Enzo feel embarrassed. Finally, he hung his head, but still walked in.As Enzo entered, the scene in the courtyard unfolded before him.Under the light, the old courtyard was in a mess, with more than twenty men lying on the ground, unable to g
Enzo was taken aback for a moment, revealing his white teeth. "Not bad. After all, Nolan and I are close friends, so I naturally know about your situation since he hates you so much."Alessia narrowed her eyes. Although she felt something was off with Enzo, his explanation seemed reasonable.She had been so high-profile at the Ramirez family banquet today that anyone in the city who followed entertainment gossip would probably know about her divorce and her two children.As the two of them walked out of the alley, they saw a car coming from a distance, stopping right beside them.The car door opened, and out came Dominic!When Dominic's gaze fell on the bloodstains on Alessia's body, his eyes darkened.He bypassed the front of the car and came to her, looking her up and down. "What happened? How did you get blood on yourself?""Mr. Carter
Dominic finished speaking with a serious expression, but even after waiting for a long time, he didn't hear Alessia's response. He cleared his throat, thinking that Alessia was unhappy, and began to lecture her."Alessia, every family has its rules. It's a rule in the Carter family to be home by eleven o'clock. If you think it's too strict to be home by eleven every night, you can inform me in advance if you have other plans."After Dominic finished these words, he still didn't hear Alessia's response.Dominic's expression became even more unnatural, anger rising in his eyes. He turned his head and said, "Alessia, don't push it too far..."What did he see?Dominic stopped halfway through his sentence, stuck in his throat.At this moment, Alessia, somehow, had already tilted her head and fallen asleep.She looked particularly obedient when
