Britney approached and grabbed her father's clothes, whispering, "Dad, let's go!"
Quinten glanced at her, then looked at Maxwell, "But..."
"We are not helping here either, on the contrary, it is detrimental to Uncle's illness. Taking this opportunity, I would like to discuss something with you," Britney kindly said.
Quinten hesitated for a second, turned around and walked up to Maxwell, saying, "Big brother, take good rest. I'll come visit you when I have time."
"You look at me? When the time comes, it will still be me going to the prison to visit you!" Maxwell sneered.
Quinten paused for a moment, then smiled gently and said, "Well, then I'll go first."
Saying that, he took Diana's hand and left with Britney.
Three people got into the car, and Bryant was still driving.
Britney pursed her lips and said to Quinten, "Dad, Uncle Ken was definitely pretending just now."
"Is it fake? How do you know?"
"Uncle has had hi
In Britney's words, there was apparent respect towards the Maxwell family.At that moment, the journalist's attention was also focused on Britney, with her back turned to the black car, so she didn't notice at all."So, Ms. Hammond, are you saying that this matter was the fault of your uncle's family?" a daring journalist asked, with sharp questioning.Britney's gaze shifted from the car back to the journalists.The corners of the lips curled coldly, "Sorry, when did I say that?"Although she secretly wanted to convey this meaning, she answered cleverly, regardless of how they guessed the meaning behind her words...She believed that justice lies in the hearts of people, and as for the truth or falsehood of the whole matter, there would be someone to judge."Ms. Hammond, do you have any feelings of dissatisfaction towards your uncle's family?" the journalist asked immediately.Britney smiled gently, but her words were full of d
Manuel always managed to conquer everyone with his unique charisma."Dad, don't give him too high of an evaluation, or he will become too proud!""Britney, you were jealous of me..."Although the couple used to argue, one could still sense the deep affection between them.Quinten and Diana exchanged a smile and served her favorite dish for her. They both ate their food without disturbing each other."I heard from your mom that you have recently started preparing to have a baby?"Quinten's words almost made Britney burst into laughter.When did mom become such a big mouth!"Wait until I finish the work in my hands, then I will consider the situation."Manuel took over the conversation and said, "Britney means that once she is done with her work here, we will start having children.""Did you see that I didn't lie? So, reduce some workload with Britney and let them have a baby earlier!" Diana scolded Quinten.
However, Britney was still asleep, feeling as if someone was playing tricks on her.At the beginning, I didn't know whether it was a dream or reality...Suddenly, Britney realized - this wasn't a dream.She pounded the man, "What are you doing?"The sky outside was barely getting light, and being caught off guard like this, it would be strange if she could speak properly.The man smirked, unabashedly, "That's exactly what I meant at the time. You said it so well, didn't you agree?""..."The fact is, she couldn't afford to think too much.Manuel tucked her sweaty hair behind her ear, "After a few times, you'll get used to it.""Don't come and deceive me again! You can slowly get used to it yourself..."Britney turned away, unwilling to pay any attention to the man. She didn't want to say a word now.In the bathtub, there was warm and moderate water, coupled with the effect of massage, which made the tired b
Britney bit her lip.I was completely consumed by this man now!She could go find a spare tire, that's for sure!Someone could knock her down with just one arm.Manuel planted a kiss on her forehead and said, "Sweetheart... I'm going to take a shower!"Britney could almost spit out blood, thinking that she was treated like a pet...***Conrad's villa.Hearing the voice coming from the phone, Conrad held his mobile phone and went crazy with anger.Manuel!He really didn't expect Manuel, this man, to anger him to such an extent! It was nothing more than using his and Britney's affair to provoke him!Apart from these things, this man had no other abilities. I really don't know how Britney could have been attracted to him.Conrad's face darkened.So, compared to Manuel, he definitely had an advantage.He believed that he was only going through a temporary slump at the moment.As long
This sound caught everyone's attention.Everyone turned their heads and looked back.Not far away, Manuel was dressed in a black suit and wearing a striped tie, looking mature and steady.He elegantly closed the car door and walked towards the steps with a graceful stride.Conrad's face darkened, and his gaze towards Manuel was filled with hatred.That damn man, he stole the woman who originally belonged to her, and now he wants to take away his own glory...In the face of Conrad's gaze, Manuel, however, did not deign to respond with any expression.The journalist, of course, did not miss this great opportunity and quickly approached to ask, "Mr. Castro, are you saying that Quinten will be acquitted? Mr. Castro, why are you so confident?""I believed in my wife, and I believed in her family, that they would not do anything illegal.""Did Mr. Castro say this? Was he being too emotional? Was he treating the law as a joke?"
Maxwell sat in the jury box, wearing a cold and mocking smile.After so many years, today is finally the day to vent all the frustration.He took away what should have belonged to his company, as well as his woman...Diana, the woman who could only suppress her inner thoughts every time, could only watch from afar as she and Quinten were deeply in love, calling her a sister...Just because they had an argument, Quinten took advantage of the opportunity.He was ready for the second scene and was waiting to fight with Quinten in the prison!Quinten wanted to hand over the company to someone else, dream on! The company could only be his, his son's... How could an outsider take over?So he had been guessing right all along! Quinten was the kind of person who appeared honest and sincere, and if it hadn't been for his calculations back then, how could the company have ended up in his hands?The more Maxwell thought about it, the angr
Britney looked at the woman on the witness stand and smirked.She found the accountant responsible for liaising with Trust Technologies at that time based on the clues provided by her friend Abbigail, who knew Malia."My name is Jazmine Dunlap, the accountant at Trust Technologies, responsible for the negative interface and the procurement contracts with the Hammond Group. Last year, I handled the Hammond Group contracts in January, March, and June. At that time, the CEO instructed me to follow the formal process and apply for the contracts, and then the contracts became effective. After they became effective, the CEO instructed me to transfer the fifty million dollars mentioned by Chairman Quinten to different accounts as stated in the contracts. I have the bank receipt of the payment." The staff member took the documents from Jazmine's hand as he spoke.The president checked with the judges, and they all nodded in agreement.Jazmine submitted the receip
Some people were happy, while others were sad.Sitting in the audience, Jamiya was originally there to watch Quinten perform, looking anxious."Maxwell, what should we do? Will Rafael expose you?"Maxwell glared fiercely at the foolish woman in front of him.Is this the place to speak?Although she spoke softly, there were people around both before and after... It's amazing that she could ask!The courtroom was noisy, with a lot of discussions.The president of the court suddenly banged the gavel, and the whole courtroom immediately fell silent. He said, "Due to the suddenness of this case and the defendant's last-minute submission of evidence, we need to further verify. The final trial will be held again at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, and the court will be notified of the trial time regarding Rafael's criminal facts according to the situation.""Everyone stood up and left the courtroom."Because he was not able to be ac
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
