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

    Maxwell was overweight, Geovanni was thin, and Stephanie and Jamiya... even less likely...Britney was searching hard in her mind..."Britney, how was it? Do you remember?"Britney shook her head. The video had ended, and besides confirming that the people in the video were not the Hammond family, she couldn't find anyone who even remotely matched for the time being.Carlos sighed, "Yeah, I can't recognize it either, just from the back.""Sorry!" Britney watched as Carlos impatiently lit a cigarette, furrowing her brows in concern. She also felt a bit guilty inside.I made my own matters so troublesome that others were even more worried than me."It's okay, maybe I was just too impatient. However, during the investigation, we found that there were other people also looking into this matter!" Sometimes when handling a difficult case, Carlos would habitually smoke, and his addiction to cigarettes was getting worse.Last night, I was working on a case and only managed to take a short nap

    "I will handle this matter well!" Britney clenched the newspaper in her hand."Since this incident happened today, the meeting ends here!" Quinten, after all, is the chairman of the company. This matter not only concerns his own daughter but also the entire company, and it must be dealt with fairly!"Britney, I contacted the Public Relations Department to assist you.""Thank you, Chairman!"Coming out of the Board of Directors, Britney was thinking all the way about how to handle this matter...Back in the Marketing Department, Britney walked straight into the office and then closed the door.Was this deliberately done by someone, or did the paparazzi stumble upon it...Looking out of the window at the constant flow of vehicles, Britney's heart gradually calmed down.At that moment, the phone on the table rang, and a series of numbers that Britney recited fluently."What's the matter?" The tone wasn't particularly good, and Britney became even more impatient with him.There, Britney's

    The press conference came to a perfect end.This is Britney's first time facing the media on behalf of the Hammond Group, but every move and gesture she makes is full of the elegance and grace of a young lady, without losing the professionalism and intelligence of a businesswoman. She completely lacks any trace of pettiness and has received unanimous praise from the outside world.Conrad watched the live and replay broadcasts on TV over and over again, and Britney's rational behavior drove him almost crazy.I didn't expect that she had such a side!Conrad tightly gripped the phone, "What's going on?""Mr. Schwartz, it's really not our fault. The Hammond Group simply didn't let us in at all!""Don't let you in?""Yes! But it seems like the media reporters they put in were all from the Melton Group."The Melton Group! Karsyn?It seems that he really underestimated her ability... He actually came up with this trick to deal with it."You like this..." Conrad's lips curved into a wicked ar

    The tone, similar to acting spoiled, and just now being cold and terrifying, were like two completely different people.Manuel leaned lightly against Britney's shoulder, being careful not to exert too much pressure on her. He had not slept for over thirty-six hours...How come he couldn't sense her emotions, so he hurried to finish earlier and come back sooner.As a result, as soon as the plane landed, Bryant heard about her situation and rushed over. However, he did not expect that his woman was actually surrounded by that group of people!Britney felt the breath next to her grow heavier, and she gazed lightly at the scenery along the window.Should I find an opportunity to talk to him later?Not knowing if she was infected by him, Britney also felt her eyelids getting heavier and heavier. Just sleep! After all, Bryant couldn't possibly take them both to sell.We arrived at the destination, but there was no movement behind. Bryant turned his head and found that both of them were asle

    In the bathroom, Britney, who took the opportunity to leave, looked at herself in the mirror and patted her flushed cheeks with her hands.Even though I had been in a relationship before, being with Manuel made it feel like it was my first time. Damn it..."What? Are you so shy because of a man's sweet talk?" Stephanie walked into the dressing room, a malicious smile playing on her lips.Britney glanced sideways and looked at Stephanie with a half-smile, "Didn't Conrad ever tell you before? If he didn't, I don't mind lending you an ear."This sentence seemed to touch Stephanie's fragile nerve. Conrad now, apart from going to work, the first thing he does when he gets home is to go into the study, and only goes to bed before falling asleep. He wouldn't say sweet words to her anymore, the only time was then...But how could she possibly show it, restraining her overflowing emotions. "Conrad is a cultured man, how could he constantly have sweet words

    "Conrad!" Stephanie, though foolish, understood the silent war between the two men, especially since she was not foolish herself."Swipe!" Conrad took out a gold card from his wallet and handed it to the waiter.A meal costing over five hundred thousand is not considered expensive! However, it depends on where the money is spent. Being taken advantage of by Manuel and being made a fool of is something that no one would feel good about!Manuel got in the car, while Britney was still reminiscing about the scene just now."Britney seemed happy?"Britney didn't hide either, she smiled and said, "Manuel, luckily I didn't choose you as my enemy."The delicate laughter of the petite woman caught Manuel's attention, and he wished he could embrace her tightly. "Even if you are my enemy, I can't bring myself to harm you."Resting on his strong arm, Britney still managed to ask, "Did you know from the beginning that the car was targeting me?"

    Britney's ears turned red. "Manuel, you are shameless!"He actually wanted to take advantage of her curiosity to satisfy his own desires!No one is more shameless than him!Manuel seemed satisfied with Britney's reaction. The corners of his mouth slightly lifted as he forcefully blocked her with his strong arms, and he attacked with one hand...The sound of a man's voice lingered in her ear."What is a face?"He had long abandoned her when he was with her. Besides, can a face provide him with meat every day?No!What was it used for?His gaze deepened, he lowered his eyes and glanced at her body pressed against his chest. With each rise and fall of her breath, just one look was enough to drive someone crazy.Although both of them were wearing clothes, their posture was ambiguous. Manuel had one hand around Britney, preventing her from escaping, while his other hand was groping her tender flesh around her waist, th

    "To be honest, at that time, I was really confused!" Carlos shrugged.At this moment, the boy who had just gone out to fetch water bumped into the door with his body, holding two cups of water in his hands.Specifically, Britney's drink was bought outside.Britney took it and thanked the boy."Carlos, there was no milk tea that Ms. Hammond liked. So I just bought a random cup..." The boy leaned in closer to Carlos's ear, his voice getting quieter as he spoke."It's all good! You don't have to go out and buy it just for me," she heard the boy's voice in the quiet environment, as they were close by.She also knew that in a place where such men were prevalent, it was impossible to have any other options, so she started off by saying plain water.Carlos raised his hand in the air, but he didn't wave it down. "Get out!"Britney looked at the way the two of them interacted and couldn't help but wonder how they ended up together.

    Britney lifted her fingers lightly from the computer keyboard, a mocking curve forming at the corner of her mouth.She would look quite attractive if she could use that confidence to work hard. But the key is, what's the use of just boasting about it without actually doing anything?Geovanni, with his unrestrained nature, was only suitable for living under the radiance of his parents and coming to work at the company.Laughing and shaking her head, Britney continued to type on the keyboard.Her patience with Uncle's family was only limited to this point. If they caused any more trouble, she would no longer tolerate it. No matter how much she said, it was useless; the other party needed to know when to stop.Britney's work status was still good for the day. She managed to consolidate the reports submitted by each person before leaving work. She planned to take the remaining work home to work overtime.She did not forget the phone call in the

She loved flowers and took great pride in her beautiful roses. In the afternoons, she would often visit her neighbors and chat with them over a cup of tea. She was well-liked by everyone in the community. Unfortunately, Mrs. Castro passed away last year.

    Britney applied ointment to herself in the bathroom.Suddenly, the body no longer had the burning pain, but instead gained a cool and comfortable sensation.The pain momentarily eased...Manuel, this man, is truly someone who evokes both love and hate!Britney twisted the ointment cap, turned on the water in the sink, released hot water, and began washing her face and brushing her teeth.I applied skincare products and saw my face in the mirror. I didn't know if it was because Manuel had just made me angry, but my cheeks were still a little red.After leaving the bathroom, Manuel was no longer in the room.As Manuel said, the ointment's effectiveness was indeed quite good. After a few minutes, walking became much easier, and the pain that felt like tearing was no longer present.When Britney was changing clothes, she almost didn't recognize her own body.His whole body was covered in bruises, as if every pore was complai

    At this moment, the sound of a text message suddenly came from the phone on the bedside. Before I could reach out to touch it, Manuel pressed down my jade arm.The smooth and tender skin was like the finest silk, with a faint pink hue on top."The light..."Britney, who was pinned down on the bed, slowly opened her lips. Manuel looked at her slightly parted lips, and his eyes sparkled with a radiant and gentle light.In the end, she couldn't really let go of these things.Manuel turned to the side and switched off the dazzling crystal chandelier in the room, leaving only a warm yellow bedside lamp.The atmosphere became even more enchanting, with a hint of ambiguity.The long black wavy hair was spread on the soft bed, with fair and delicate facial features. Her eyes, as black as ink, shimmered with a mesmerizing glow under the warm light. A gentle smile slowly appeared at the corner of her lips, and her eyes were filled with a tender

    Diana seemed to be immersed in memories of the past."He actually asked me out, but he didn't mean anything else. We just talked about the past, and he also knew that I was already married and had a happy family with a precious daughter, which made him happy for me. He also kept praising you in front of me, saying that you are more outstanding than me."At this point, a proud smile appeared on Diana's lips."I went... I was almost scared to death! I thought a cheesy plot from a children's book was going to come to life. Turns out, Britney is actually that person's child!"Karsyn couldn't help but interrupt.Britney gritted her teeth and tapped the driver's seat. "What are you saying!""How is that possible? He had been abroad for several years when I got together with Britney's father and had her," Diana patiently explained, without blaming Karsyn for his thoughtless words.Karsyn sighed and patted her chest.Damn it!Th

    Outside the luxury boutique, two women left."Baron, I..." Skyler hesitated, unable to speak."Skyler, let's terminate the contract! I can't afford it anymore..." The obese man handed the drink he had bought to Skyler and left without looking back.Skyler stood in place, looking dejectedly as the man walked away, the drink in his hand still warm.The heart felt like it was missing a piece.In this unfamiliar city, it was him who brought himself from the countryside to this city, and now he is also leaving. So what will she do? Go back to the countryside again?Britney and Karsyn exchanged glances, and Karsyn shrugged.They really wanted to watch a play unintentionally.Britney whispered a few words into Karsyn's ear, and Karsyn's eyes lit up.

    Britney had already started surrendering her weapons while accompanying Karsyn to browse through the entire women's clothing stores at Universal Mall, even though they hadn't finished scanning half of them.Finally, Britney was exhausted and dragged Karsyn to a restaurant, intending to take a break and replenish some energy.Karsyn's combat effectiveness was famously good, and she had a fruitful harvest. Britney just picked two pieces of innerwear.Britney picked a spot with a good view, and she felt like this whole trip was just for seeing Karsyn and being bothered.Britney put her shopping bags away, sat down in her seat, and felt completely relaxed.I was exhausted by Manuel in the evening, busy with work during the day, and then came back to clean up the clothes after work.That was not enough energy, no matter how good it was."Why did you only buy two pieces of clothing today? And they are all innerwear..." Karsyn looked at Brit
