"Geovanni, apologize to Mr. Fletcher!" Britney turned around and sternly addressed Geovanni behind her.Geovanni thought he had misheard and pointed at himself. "Let me apologize to him! Britney, did you lose your mind? Why should I?""If you don't apologize, I'll let you experience what it feels like to get caught in a door!" Britney raised her eyebrows, showing strong determination. "If you're not clear about it, let me tell you, the person sitting here right now is your immediate supervisor! Moreover, who gave you the right to casually throw the company's documents on the ground? Every single one of them from the Hammond Group, even a scrap of paper could be a company secret! Can you handle the responsibility if something goes wrong?""You!" Geovanni stammered. He never expected Britney to air their personal grievances and make him, the future successor, apologize to a Sales Department manager in front of so many people.How can he hold his head up at the Hammond Group in the futur
After finishing their meal, Britney took Karsyn shopping.From Universal Mall to New World Mall, over the years, Britney couldn't be considered to have fully understood the Schwartz family's preferences, but at least she had some understanding. The Schwartz family liked high-end and tasteful things, and they were very particular about this aspect. Britney also put in her best effort to select items for Karsyn, hoping that when Karsyn met the Schwartz family for the first time, she would leave a good impression.Having picked a good gift, and seeing that it was still early, the two of them walked into a luxury lingerie store. The store manager immediately recognized the two esteemed VIP customers and warmly introduced the newly arrived collection."Britney, this lingerie suits you so well! How about I give it to you as a wedding gift?" Karsyn grinned wickedly.The pink leopard print, combining the tempting elements of leopard print and black lace, was both enchanting and graceful. The
C&B Winery.Today, Geovanni felt frustrated all day long and had nowhere to vent. He asked Stephanie for Conrad's phone number and arranged to meet at the winery after work.This private winery was Conrad's own private property, named after the initials of Britney and Conrad. It symbolizes Conrad's love for Britney.Conrad took out a bottle of red wine he had cherished for a long time and sat down across from Geovanni with his long legs."What's wrong? You look gloomy."Geovanni was torn inside, whether to tell his brother-in-law or not. However, he thought about everyone around him and couldn't find a suitable confidant."Conrad..." Geovanni slowly opened up and faithfully recounted everything that had happened at the company during the day to Conrad, leaving out not a single detail.Conrad shook the liquid in his cup and listened attentively. He looked down upon the inexperienced Geovanni. However, Alexzander had instructed him to win him over, as it would be beneficial for them in
"The Melton girl was devoted to you; you should have taken advantage of it long ago!" Alexzander said, sounding somewhat reproachful.Franklin looked at Alexzander without much expression. "I hope you won't regret it later.""The members of the Schwartz family all share the same blood. I know you are fully focused on managing the district, but if there is profit to be made in the business world, do not easily give up," Alexzander said as he took a sip of herbal tea.Franklin's mother was not exactly fond of him, but rather saw him as a business alliance. Although her demeanor changed drastically after her death, Franklin was still her own biological son."Usually, I often help your younger brother... after all, you two are brothers! Your mother's matters..."Franklin's dark eyes narrowed slightly as he concealed his emotions. "I didn't have a younger brother, my mother only had me as her son!"Watching Franklin's back, Alexzander also knew how outstanding his son was, but he was stuck
I originally wanted Britney to be envious and jealous, but I didn't expect Britney to actually see herself as Manuel's future wife.She came to the Castro's villa and only then did she find out that they had already set a wedding date.However, it seems that Britney still didn't know the true situation of Manuel. This made Nylah feel slightly superior."Misses, dinner is ready!" the servant came over and reported, pushing Livia, who was sitting in a wheelchair, away."Two sisters, I went to change my clothes first."In the back garden, only Britney and Nylah remained.Britney had a breathtakingly beautiful face, with porcelain-like fair and tender skin. Against the backdrop of a white down jacket, her complexion appeared even more translucent. Her bright eyes sparkled like stars in the deep sea.From the moment Nylah laid eyes on her, he thought the woman in front of him was flawlessly beautiful. Every gesture and movement she made exuded a natural elegance that couldn't be imitated b
Noticing Manuel's increasingly deep gaze, Britney lowered her head and took a look. She had just rushed out of the house in a panic, without even zipping up her coat. Although it was winter pajamas, she wasn't wearing anything underneath! Although it wasn't visible, it was the first time she had appeared like this in front of a man! Although she had been in a relationship with Conrad before, they had never crossed that line.Britney adjusted her coat and said, "Wasn't the divorce ceremony still a while away?""I missed you! So I couldn't help but come back."Britney also gradually got used to it, Manuel never buried his feelings for her in his heart."Are you still leaving?"Manuel held Britney's hand, applying a little pressure. Britney's soft body was easily brought into Manuel's embrace. "I will leave tomorrow," he said. Some details of the wedding still needed his personal attention.Britney felt a faint tobacco scent coming from Manuel, and when she heard that Manuel was leaving
In the early morning, Britney was not feeling particularly well. She had dark circles under her eyes, so she had to use more concealer.Last night, when I returned to my room, I couldn't fall asleep anymore. So I got out of bed and looked at some electronic files.Unconsciously, the sky had already become dimly lit. Realizing it was almost time, I changed my clothes and noticed a gift box on the bed. After contemplating for a while, I took out the gift Manuel had given me and put it on. Standing in front of the mirror, I realized Manuel had a great taste.After having breakfast, I went to the company as usual. Today was Saturday, which was originally a day off. However, Hugh came back today, so the entire department had to work an extra day. As a result, the company was unusually quiet today.Walking into the company, Malia greeted me, "Team leader, Hugh is already inside."Britney glanced at Hugh's office area and saw a silver-gray suitcase. As expected, he had just arrived from the
Britney and Hugh finished their meal and walked towards the elevator, without noticing that someone was staring at them intently.Because she didn't know how long it would take, Britney didn't ask Bryant to wait. It was only when they left the restaurant that she realized Hugh didn't have a car...Standing outside, the cold wind was biting.Britney tightened her cotton coat a little, "Let's take a taxi!" Even though she was fully dressed, she couldn't withstand the cold wind.The air was filled with mist as they spoke. These days, Goldmoor had entered its coldest period.Gentleman Hugh took off his coat and draped it over Britney. "So, you're actually afraid of the cold."In foreign countries, there would not be such cold weather like Goldmoor."I was fine, you can wear it yourself!"Hugh had already stood by the roadside and hailed a taxi. But it was during the peak dining hours, with not only many cars but also a large number of people, causing traffic congestion."It seems like I h
The sky was gradually getting dark...Karsyn received a call from Andreas, but it was not his own voice.Albert, who was Andreas' childhood friend, was Albert Fitzpatrick.The voice on the phone was very noisy, and Karsyn couldn't hear very clearly. However, she understood roughly that she was asked to hurry to Seventh Club because Andreas had an argument with someone.That person was none other than Geovanni from last night!"Franklin, I'm really sorry. I'm going to stand you up today!" Hanging up the phone, Karsyn stepped on the gas pedal and accelerated the car to 150 miles per hour."Do you want me to accompany you?" It was evident that Karsyn was anxious."No need! It's nothing, I'll just take you back to the apartment," Karsyn forced a smile to reassure Franklin. She had noticed earlier that Franklin seemed a bit tired, and although she didn't understand the details of his work, she didn't want him to be distracted or burdened b
This piece of music, she and her mother played together for no less than twenty times in the past. This time, they were able to find the feeling so smoothly, thanks to Gregory's patient guidance on stage just now.For some reason, whenever she played with Gregory, she could always find the same feeling she had when she played with her mother, it was almost identical.When Gregory first saw Britney's appearance, he was also slightly surprised. However, when they played together, that feeling was too familiar!For over twenty years, the feeling that had been missing all this time has reappeared!The two of them finished their duet and thanked the audience below the stage.The female host walked over and said, "Wow, really! I was completely stunned when I heard it just now. It was not a duet between two people at all, but a solo performance by one person!"An opening remark resonated with everyone."Ms. Hammond, I would like to interview
There was one week left until the scheduled wedding date.Tonight was the first solo piano concert, "One Life, One Love," held by Gregory Preston, Britney's favorite pianist.Gregory was a Goldmoor native who started playing the piano at the age of four. At the age of twenty-one, he went abroad to perform and achieved great success, eventually settling down overseas. This was his first visit back to his homeland after twenty-five years, and he chose to hold his first solo concert in his hometown. Gregory seemed destined for the piano, as it sang poetically with its unique sound in his fingertips. His playing always had a romantic quality, distinct and charming.Britney was no longer surprised that Manuel knew everything about himself.Ford drove into the parking lot, while Manuel held Britney's hand and headed towards the music hall.As it was the first show in the country, it is said that there were also some original songs created by Gregory, whi
Today, Geovanni did not come to the company and did not ask for leave from the company.And Malia told her that on that day, as soon as she and Hugh left, Geovanni claimed to have something to do and didn't go to the dinner. They should have left the company one after the other.Originally, Malia didn't pay much attention to it. However, after two consecutive incidents, the team leader asked her to pay attention to the morning news, which made Malia think that this matter might be related to Geovanni, so she reported it to him.Britney had just come down from the Board of Directors and let Hugh into the office, instructing Malia to brew two cups of coffee.Britney sat on a leather office chair, while Hugh sat across from her."Hugh, put aside what you have on your hands for now.""Did you want me to investigate this matter?"Hugh and I were truly on the same wavelength when it came to work, we could basically think as one."Yes
She should have realized the reaction of Uncle's family earlier, but she didn't expect Maxwell to actually threaten her father."Dad, I'm sorry!"If Uncle's family targeted her, she could handle it on her own or ignore it. It seems that this time, the Maxwell family wants to take advantage of this opportunity to force her father to step down.Quinten lovingly patted Britney's head and said, "Britney, you did the right thing! If Geovanni continues to be spoiled like this, he will surely be ruined!""Yeah! Big brother and the others were completely unaware of Geovanni's problem and were still protecting him," Diana said."But, big brother said so, what should we do next?""Mom, it's okay. You don't need to worry," Britney reassured."Diana, you go to sleep first," Quinten pulled Diana's clothes closer, considerately escorting her to the bedroom door and comforting her with a few words.Seeing Diana return to the room, Quinten fin
Manuel didn't eat much, but Britney did. Manuel kept serving her food, and unknowingly she ended up eating more.After dinner, Karsyn quickly disappeared with Andreas.Manuel gave a perfect score to the actions of these two siblings. Britney ate a bit too much and suggested that they take a walk together.The two of them, like an ordinary couple, walked hand in hand and took a stroll in the nearby park. There were elderly people exercising in the park, and when they saw the two of them, they chuckled and smiled at them.Britney still couldn't figure out why Manuel kissed her in front of their grandparents. Britney lightly tapped him, but it was misunderstood as playful banter between the couple, and they laughed even harder at them."These two make such a perfect couple!"When leaving, these words entered the ears. However, the uncommunicative Manuel, instead, turned around and said thank you.After a while, the two of them returned t
If marrying her was more based on the memories from childhood and my hidden feelings for her all along.So now, he had gained a deeper understanding of her.And, it seemed that he had discovered a secret, possibly a secret that she herself was unaware of.This made him very happy, sweeping away the gloom he had just experienced.Geovanni's face turned pale as Manuel released his grip. "Ouch," he exclaimed, using his other hand to cradle the one that had been squeezed. He took two steps back. That hand was practically immobile; even the slightest movement caused excruciating pain.Under the myriad of lights and shadows, Manuel, a mature man with a deadly charm, inserted his slender hand into his pocket.Actually, Manuel didn't use much force, otherwise Geovanni's hand would have been injured long ago."You guys accompany him to the hospital and take a look." Britney looked at Geovanni's swollen wrist, which had been pinched, and said t
Geovanni was called out by his friend to have a hot pot and, by the way, to discuss his interest in working for the Hammond Group. Being persuaded by his friend, he ended up having a few drinks."Isn't that Andreas?" Geovanni immediately recognized Andreas, who was sitting there fishing for meat.People always have a tendency to compare themselves when they are together. Geovanni and Andreas are the same age. They attended the same school, in the same grade, and even the same class since childhood. They are both heirs to wealthy families, known as the Hammond family and the Melton family, respectively. It is inevitable that they will be compared by others in the future.The Hammond Group was Goldmoor's leading conglomerate, and Geovanni had a sense of superiority, naturally unwilling to be surpassed by others.In his eyes, Andreas was just a wild and unruly little brat."It's really Andreas!" said Korbin Fuentes. Andreas also recognized him, as the
The three of them were together, as if they had returned to their past lives.Time has passed, it has been almost half a year since Andreas last came home."Andreas, what is the schedule like in your training area?" Britney, sitting in the passenger seat, remembered the last time she called Manuel and realized she didn't even know his basic routine.Before, I had the idea of asking Bryant, but that guy is just like a block of wood. Besides driving, when it comes to anything about their training area, he doesn't say a word.Always makes people feel mysterious.Andreas squeezed forward from the back seat and said, "I heard that my future brother-in-law is also from the training area.""Yes, you're quite proud! Recently, during this period of time, Britney is the headline figure of Goldmoor. She's showered with love by your future brother-in-law.""How come I smell something sour..." Andreas laughed, revealing a row of small white teeth,
