Alessia heard the words and looked at the big screen, where Eagle replied to Tiffany: [Okay, after passing the assessment.]
The tone was not enthusiastic, but it was a genuine agreement.
Alessia had no thoughts on this matter. Everyone has different preferences and different ways of doing things.
She didn't know the relationship between Eagle and Tiffany, so she had no qualifications to comment.
Even if they were very close friends, they still had the freedom to make friends, and there was no need for anyone else to gossip about it.
Alessia quietly peeked at the screen, but M's character was one that couldn't let things go.
M: [Some people, haven't even formally joined the organization yet, and they're already looking for favors in public. No matter how good the relationship is, if you haven't passed the assessment, you
[Congratulations!][Thank you!] Tiffany's lips curved up slightly, and she carefully continued messaging: [Senior Eagle, now that I am officially part of the organization, can I ask you for a favor?][What is it?] Eagle's response was still concise.This succinct way of speaking, familiar to her, unexpectedly stirred something inside her.Tiffany couldn't understand why, but she suddenly thought of Dominic, and her face flushed. She replied: [It's about finding someone, definitely not a big deal for you.][Who?] Eagle remained straightforward.Seeing that Eagle didn't refuse, Tiffany felt confident that things were going smoothly. She sent another message directly:[It's about Dr. Ath
Fifteen minutes passed, and Dominic's car appeared within sight.Tiffany straightened her dress and walked towards him.Dominic opened the door and stepped out of the car, his tall figure leaning against it as he watched Tiffany approach.Tiffany's heart was pounding from nervousness, but she still smiled and spoke first, "Dom, I'm sorry, I lied to you."Dominic raised an eyebrow, the coldness in his eyes dissipating slightly as he listened to Tiffany continue."I thought about it and decided to tell you the truth. I asked you to find Dr. Athena not to discuss academic matters, but to ask her to perform surgery for Auntie Evelyn. I know you had some unpleasantness with Uncle Gordon, and I was afraid that if you knew, you wouldn't be happy to help. I was narrow-minded about this. Dom, how could you refuse to help just because of a little disagreement? So, Dom, can you forgive me?"
Just as Dominic was about to drive the car into the yard, Tiffany suddenly overtook him. Dominic, fearing an accident, hurriedly avoided, but it was too late.As Dominic's car turned, the front of the car still collided with Tiffany's car.With a loud ‘bang,’ the car shook violently, and Dominic almost hit his head.The collision of the two cars was not small, although it was muffled by the sound of rain, but in the living room, Alessia and Riley, who were drinking together, still heard it.Alessia and Riley got up, went to the window, and pulled open the curtains, only to see the two cars had collided.The neighborhood road was not wide, but it wasn't narrow either, completely allowing two cars to drive side by side.How could a collision happen when everything was fine?"Another accident happened. Dominic has been reckless with his driv
Dominic entered the house and called Jonathan again, then ignored everything else. After taking a shower, he uneasily called Alessia.No one answered the first time, and the second time, her phone was turned off.Dominic furrowed his brow, feeling inexplicably restless.He scrolled through the messages he had sent to Alessia before, and this unease became even more pronounced.Twenty minutes later, the sound of a car came from outside the yard, and he stood by the window, looking down.It was Jonathan.In the heavy rain, Jonathan took Tiffany away, and until late, the villa across the street remained dark.On the other side, a car entered a residential area and stopped in front of a villa.Someone was already waiting at the entrance of the villa.In the darkness, a man with a height of 188 cm appr
In this tense moment of mutual probing, Enzo's mouth also carried a smile, and Alessia didn't feel any danger from him.Alessia didn't look away or speak, neither admitting nor denying.They maintained this posture for about a minute, and in the end, Enzo was the first to straighten up and step back.He poured himself another glass of wine, drank it in one go, and when he looked at Alessia again, a layer of mist had covered his eyes.Now it was clear that Enzo, even if not completely drunk, was at least quite intoxicated.He rubbed his very short-cropped hair, hands in his pockets, and coolly said to Alessia, "Sia, since you're at my house and haven't seen the rooms yet, come on, let me show you around."With that, he twisted and turned, leading the way ahead.Alessia had come tonight with a purpose, no matter what Enzo wanted to do.
"Sia, are you guarding against me?"Enzo stood up, leaning on the nearby chair. He seemed genuinely sincere, as if having difficulty standing due to having drunk too much. "You see, I even set the password lock on the room to your birthday number. How could I possibly harm you?""Then what about the emails on the computer just now?" Alessia asked.She wouldn't blindly believe Enzo's words, only trust her own judgment.Enzo didn't answer at her question. Instead, he picked up the cigarette box from the cabinet, took out a cigarette, and put it in his mouth.Just as he was about to light it, he suddenly remembered something. He looked up at Alessia, who was staring at him, and took the cigarette out of his mouth, sniffing it under his nose.After doing all this, Enzo seemed to calm down a bit. He took a few steps forward, coming to stand in front of Alessia.
Dominic felt restless, as if his heart and liver were being scratched. The first thing he did upon opening his eyes was to reach for his phone. The screen lit up clean as a blank sheet of paper, with not a single new message. This confirmed that despite calling Alessia several times last night, she hadn't replied to any of his messages.His heart was engulfed by a profound sense of loss, causing his brows to furrow even tighter. Long lashes cast shadows as he tapped on his phone screen with his slender, jade-like fingers, ultimately convincing himself.Forget it, he'd forgive her for not replying, considering how much she liked him.Dominic dialed Alessia's number, and a mechanical female voice answered. Had her phone been off since last night?Dominic sensed things weren't so simple. Contemplating for a moment, he quickly used hacking techniques to change the phone number and dialed Alessia again.
Eleanor looked at Christian's confident demeanor and no longer doubted.Her brother, of course, had to be believed.Soon, Christian was the first to stop. He looked up at the ward number in front of him—Room 28 in Ward A."Elle, this is it," Christian let go of Eleanor's hand and politely knocked on the door."Knock, knock!" After two knocks, the door was opened from inside.It wasn't Gordon or Evelyn who opened the door, but a tidy-looking woman around fifty years old."Hello, grandma, I'm here to see Grandma Evelyn," Christian grinned, showing his white teeth, his smile bright and sunny."You are... Christian?" The woman looked at Christian hesitantly for a moment before speaking.Seeing that the woman recognized him, Christian's smile became even brighter, and he nodded eagerly, "Yes, yes, I am Christian.
