While the servant went to call Julia, Britney glanced at Manuel and saw him raising his eyebrows, looking at her with a satisfied expression, as if he was pleased with her performance.
Don't turn around, Britney said, "Everyone is well aware of what happened this morning. The painting that Livia gave me yesterday appeared in the pool outside this morning, and it was torn in half."
"And I became the culprit! Even though I was the jealous sister-in-law who went crazy, I wouldn't be foolish enough to tear up the painting of Livia that was given to me and throw it into the villa's pool! Isn't it obvious that I am that kind of person? What benefit could I possibly gain from this? Will Manuel love me more because of it? Or will everyone think I am malicious? In the end, I don't gain anything from this whole situation!"
Everyone heard what Britney said, as if it was the case.
"I could have gone home the next day to deal with this painting, since I only stayed fo
This is where Livia's strength lies, using her vulnerability to her advantage, making everyone sympathize with her at crucial moments."Livia, stop pretending! I asked a doctor about heart disease, and they said that you just took your medication, so it's not possible for you to have an attack so soon. Don't play games with everyone." Britney didn't care how she appeared to others, but this time, she wouldn't let Livia off so easily.Livia, using her illness and disability, gained everyone's sympathy, but deep down she had extremely evil intentions. If this is not dealt with sooner, one day she will take advantage of these two things and no one in the family will dare to do anything to her. Eventually, the outcome will be similar to Geovanni's.If someone in the Castro family pretended to be ignorant, she wouldn't mind exposing this facade!"Britney, it wasn't me. It wasn't me who did it! I didn't pretend..." Livia cried in pain, with tears streaming down
Your sister's benefits, ah!Today, I worked hard all day. Is it tiring for someone to think about problems using their brain?This man, he always asks for benefits as soon as he opens his mouth!A man in his thirties, not even ashamed!No wonder when I came out of the hospital this afternoon, I didn't see the Castro family's elderly couple in the villa.Thinking, Britney opened the door and leaned in, planting a kiss on Manuel's face as a reward.This man's trust was worthy of this kiss."Is it just like this?" Manuel stared at Britney's rosy lips, the meaning was quite obvious, she must have understood it as she was so intelligent.This man...Britney pursed her lips, and the next second, she tilted her tender pink lips towards those attractive thin lips...The next moment, Manuel, however, was faster than her, anxiously kissing those delicate lips. Manuel's heart was instantly filled, very satisfied.Grad
In the end, breakfast lasted for a long ten minutes.After finishing, Britney wiped the corners of her mouth with a tissue.Parker appeared to be a very well-mannered man, despite being a man, his culinary skills were truly impressive. He had breakfast here twice in total, and not a single dish was repeated, and the taste was truly excellent.She, who originally had no appetite, ate even more than usual."If you still like to eat something, you can tell Parker. He is basically a jack of all trades, if there's something he doesn't know, he will learn it." Manuel put down his knife and fork."That's enough! Actually, there's no need to come up with different ways every day.""I couldn't tell, but Britney seemed quite concerned about Parker," Manuel suddenly became serious.There is a hint of sourness in the words...Britney smiled and said, "I went upstairs to change my clothes."After speaking, he quickly went upstairs.
Britney looked at all of this coldly.The bandage on Geovanni's head had not been removed yet, but the Maxwell family had already started eagerly dealing with Geovanni's matters."Uncle Quinten, Geovanni has almost recovered from his injury! We discussed and decided to let Geovanni go to work at the company first," Stephanie said, gently, while holding her visibly pregnant belly.With the urging of the Schwartz family parents, she also wanted to lift her head earlier in the Schwartz family.So, she had to pick up the pace. Britney's previous threats had temporarily delayed her plan, but she wouldn't let Britney continue to have control over the company. She had to get Geovanni into the company and make sure he performed well.One important reason for coming over today is that Britney's husband is also present. She hopes that not only Britney's family will take his presence into consideration and be more accommodating but also she wants to have a ch
"Manuel, you spoiled me!"Having witnessed Stephanie and Conrad's betrayal with her own eyes, she never actually considered getting involved in another relationship.Unknowingly, she was irresistibly drawn to this man, who unconditionally trusted and indulged her, causing her to become deeply entangled."I will spoil you so much that no one can stand you, and you will never be able to leave my side in this lifetime.""I really doubt that you have never had a girlfriend before, you are so good at sweet-talking." Prior to this, her only previous relationship was with Conrad, but Conrad rarely said romantic things, while Manuel seemed to effortlessly come up with them, making her suspicious of this man.Manuel's pitch-black ink eyes gazed at her delicate brows and eyes, and his thin lips pressed against her forehead."Britney, you had to believe me!"Before they had more time to enjoy themselves, I, Diana, came over and called them in fo
Stephanie looked at her younger brother with frustration.Jamiya listened to her daughter's words without chiming in. But she didn't think her son was at fault either; it was just a child's nature, and she could only say that her son was not yet very sophisticated.Of course, both the palm and the back of the hand were flesh.So Jamiya chose not to speak."Sis, I had ways to develop the Hammond Group even better," Geovanni said. As long as he took that position, he could fulfill his ambitions and overcome any difficulties according to his own will."Little brother, I know you are smart. Sister has things to consider, but before that, we must find a way to regain the Hammond Group, so you must learn to be patient first." Stephanie, who is also the future inheritor of the Hammond Group, couldn't speak too harshly to her younger brother, so she could only coax and teach him at the same time."Alright!" Geovanni responded.Seeing her youn
With the air conditioning on, Karsyn started sweating after a while.When I was resting, I suddenly remembered, isn't Ernesto the boss here?Karsyn walked over and said, "Ernesto, you let the people outside open the door.""My phone was taken by Raiden."Ernesto's casual remark hit like a bolt from the blue."This, my phone is for you to use!" Karsyn handed his phone to him."It's useless. Instead of struggling in vain, it's better to sit down and have a drink." When Karsyn walked in, he already knew.Karsyn placed her phone and bag on the couch and sat down. "When did Raiden let us out? It's impossible for us to stay here overnight, right?"Ernesto handed her a cup filled with wine, "I don't know."Seeing Ernesto's indifferent expression, Karsyn was on the verge of going crazy. Trying hard to calm the anger inside, Karsyn scanned the entire room.This is a private room specially designed for couples. Couples' ite
Raiden watched Ernesto's actions on the monitor, turned around and walked away hurriedly."Raiden, where are you going?" Andreas shouted.Raiden turned his head and looked at the foolish child, saying, "Hurry up and go! Ernesto is showing his power, are you still waiting to be beaten by him...""..."Andreas was speechless.Returning the gaze back to the surveillance footage...In the resulting scene, Ernesto's face grew larger and larger, and then the screen shook a few times, swiftly turning into a straight line with a loud snap.Everything went wrong!"Ah, Raiden, wait for me..." Andreas quickly ran out of the room.In a couple's private room.Karsyn saw everything calm down and shouted at Ernesto."I'll take care of it!" Ernesto said without even looking back."Damn it, Ernesto, what do you have to take responsibility for!" My beautiful face...Ernesto threw the miniature camera he had in
Looking into the mirror, Sierra touched the necklace around her neck.The more people praised her, the more her heart floated with beauty...Regardless of whether the other person was flattery or adulation, the more she looked at herself in the mirror, the more beautiful she felt. Especially with the expensive necklace around her neck, it further accentuated her beauty.Unfortunately, as soon as she thought about it, she realized that the necklace did not belong to her. She was only helping someone else choose it to give to someone else. She felt extremely frustrated.In fact, beautiful jewelry did enhance people's facial features.But in Raiden's eyes, they were all the same, just a few diamonds, like glass beads, then added to various parts of a little cat or put on wings or something, just changing the design...He generally wouldn't choose these seemingly complicated things, just paying the money is fine.He just wanted to make th
Actually, she had always had a dream in her heart, which was that the prince would drive a luxury car and stand in front of her with a bouquet of flowers...This scene appeared many times in her dreams, but she never expected that someone would actually do it."Um. I had time."Sierra nodded shyly.I thought to myself that I hadn't been able to contact my aunt and uncle, and I didn't know if they were at the villa or not. I decided to go out with this man first and check on them later when I could get in touch with them.Now, she completely forgot that Stephanie had warned her before that Raiden was a playboy.Raiden smirked and gentlemanly opened the door of the passenger seat for Sierra. After she sat inside, he walked around the front of the car and sat in the driver's seat.Sierra sat in the car, lowered her gaze, and looked at the large bouquet of roses, immersing herself in the fragrance of the flowers. It was her first time rec
On the balcony outside the second floor of the villa, a slender figure was wrapped in a dark robe, standing there. The faint sunlight shone on the tall male body, creating a golden halo around the figure. The sharp short hair was topped with water droplets, giving it a cool and sexy look.Manuel had just finished taking a shower when he received a call from Cortez, reporting on the situation of the Maxwell family at the hospital. The cigarette butt flickered at his fingertips, and his sexy Adam's apple rolled up and down with each exhale of smoke rings.His cold narrowed black eyes deepened in color when he heard Cortez say that Maxwell had been arrested and the conflict between Jamiya and Stephanie had escalated. However, there was no extra expression on his face, as if everything had been expected long ago."Um." There was only a faint response before hanging up the phone.After finishing the cigarette in his hand, Manuel entered the bedroom. He pulled
"Stephanie, how could you..." Jamiya scolded.With an incredulous expression on her face, she couldn't believe that her daughter had easily pointed out her son.But compared to Jamiya's strong protectiveness towards her calf, Stephanie appeared much more rational."You should go and ask the doctors and nurses here first, to see if you can take him away," Stephanie said calmly, but beneath her calm exterior, there was a storm brewing.The remaining two police officers heard Stephanie's words and did not give them a hard time. They approached the glass and took a look at the person in the intensive care unit she had just pointed out. One of them went to find the doctor, and after a few minutes, Geovanni's attending physician, Dr. Cortez, rushed over. The three of them were communicating.At this moment, Jamiya finally realized that her daughter's actions were entirely because of Geovanni's current state, which the police officer couldn't take away.
The entire Goldmoor was cleansed by the night rain, seemingly washing away the sins of the night. The sun slowly emerged on the horizon, heralding the start of a new day.Karsyn held her phone nervously."How are you? Where is Britney now?" Andreas sat on the edge of the bed, shaking his silly sister.When he was heading home from the Seventh Club, he overheard people talking about something. Curiously, he approached and listened. To his surprise, it was actually about his friend Britney...What happened to them in the end?They all didn't know. According to Mr. Castro, they sent the person who was rear-ended to the hospital and then came back, but with Mr. Castro taking care of the rest, there shouldn't be too much of a problem.He didn't want to hear that there was no major issue. All he wanted was one hundred percent certainty.He made several phone calls, Britney's phone was turned off, Bryant's phone couldn't be reached, and Raid
People over here haven't even recovered from their sadness to make a decision, but these two individuals have already started discussing calmly about which arm or organ the person is missing.Everyone wanted Bryant to stay in the hospital for a few days, worried that he had hit his head and might have some aftereffects. However, he couldn't hold on and insisted on going back...So Manuel instructed Raiden to take Bryant home and have him rest for a few days.Manuel and Britney returned to the villa, and it was already dawn."I'll go take a shower first." Exhausted after a night of tossing and turning, Britney, who was already extremely tired, looked at her muddy body and didn't want to just lie down and go to sleep like that. She decided that even a quick shower would be more comfortable than sleeping in her current state."I helped you!" Manuel took a step forward and opened the bathroom door for Britney."No need! You were injured too, but
The doctor in his fifties walked out first, while the other unrelated medical staff left from the other side.Jamiya immediately got up from the chair and ran over, with Stephanie following behind. The two of them hurriedly asked, "Doctor, how is my son (brother)?"Maxwell walked with heavy steps and followed along.The attending doctor was surrounded by three people, took off his mask, and said, "The person has been saved, but once his condition improves a little, we will proceed with the next surgery.""Being alive is enough, being alive is enough... Doctor, don't worry, we will definitely cooperate well and let him recover quickly and undergo the surgery." Jamiya's suspended heart finally settled.No matter what, as long as you are still alive, it's good.Before, they said her son had only one breath left, and she knew it couldn't be true when she saw him for the last time.How could her son have had any trouble?Maxwell and
That night, there was a close encounter with life and death.The lights in the hospital poured down, Manuel's cold and rigid facial features were too terrifying, and his aura was too powerful, leaving the nearby doctors standing there at a loss, not daring to say a word."If your hand were disabled, I would have to find someone with all four limbs," Britney threatened, seeing that Manuel was still unmoved.This man really didn't take care of himself at all. Although he knew he wanted to protect himself, his hands were definitely injured badly.The man, who had been staring at Britney's wound, barely reacted when he heard her words. "Let's go!""Mr. Castro, come with me over here," the doctor said in a pleasing manner.At that moment, Raiden walked up to Manuel from a different direction."You go first, I'll follow," Manuel glanced at the older doctor.The doctor quickly said, "Okay!"After the doctor left, Raiden whisper
Raiden bumped Bryant's arm, indicating him to look at the affectionate couple after the robbery.Raiden has always been puzzled as to why there are so many flowers and plants outside, yet they insist on hanging themselves on a tree.However, seeing Manuel cherish someone so much, Britney wondered if she had saved the Milky Way in her past life.Britney let Manuel carry her onto the car.Now she is covered in mud everywhere, originally wearing a white evening gown, but now she looks like a beggar who has just come out of a garbage dump.There was not a single clean spot, whether on the body or on the face.Just as she was putting her down, Britney caught sight of the large patch of crimson on Manuel's arm, illuminated by the dim light inside the car."Manuel, what happened to your hand?" Britney pulled his hand over, blood had already soaked through his white shirt, flowing down his arm onto the back of his hand.It was as if at
