Matthew discovered that Norman had secretly accessed his accounts, stolen the designs, and used them successfully in the new product development at Emilia's company. After finding out, Matthew discreetly made some changes to the design, which Norman overlooked. Norman continued to use the altered design, resulting in serious flaws in the products entering the production phase, rendering all previous investments useless. The National Aerospace Corporation was not a charity. Moreover, Matthew had already informed a previous colleague about the situation. After detecting the issues, they decided to terminate the collaboration and sue the Watson family for compensation.Norman was honest with Matthew and Lana. He revealed the whole truth about his actions and expressed concern that the vengeful Emilia might harm his child. Matthew initially prepared to retaliate against Norman. However, he found himself unable to proceed upon hearing about Norman's worry for his child."Lana, w
"Hey Howard, I noticed your glasses are quite dark. You actually think I'm the playboy type?"Howard took a sip of his drink but didn't say anything, only smiling.Howard and Alex had been childhood friends since kindergarten. Alex had been charming since then.In high school, with his outstanding looks and a good family background, Alex changed girlfriends every three days. Despite his heartlessness, women continued to flock to him, earning him the nickname "Vitiligo".As an adult, Alex's love life became more wild. From A-list actresses to car models, as long as they offered themselves, Alex accepted. Perhaps due to his dissolute lifestyle, his family didn't place any hope in him. To avoid seeing him lead a debauched life, his grandfather sent him abroad for studies, turning a blind eye.Now, after three full years, Alex had returned. He was putting on an act again, claiming that this time, his grandfather had asked him to return. Howard didn't believe a word of it."Hey,
Alex, known for his playboy reputation, had girlfriends everywhere. Fortunately, he was generous in his relationships, and none of his ex-girlfriends spoke ill of him. Moreover, he was exceptionally gentlemanly and especially considerate toward girls. Combined with his handsome appearance, almost no girl could resist liking him.So, when it was known that Alex was returning to participate in the company's operations, all the girls at the headquarters eagerly awaited his arrival. Today was the day Alex returned. Almost all the girls at the headquarters had meticulously dressed up for work, aiming to catch Alex's attention.Alex was fully aware of the girls' intentions. He spared no effort in complimenting them, earning positive reviews from all the girls. However, his gentlemanly demeanor had no effect on Emilia. Instead, she considered it evidence of his playboy lifestyle."Come on, your brother has finally made a trip back to the country. It's fine if you don't warmly wel
"What?" Emilia was greatly surprised. "Are you saying he completed all those tasks by himself?""I'm telling the truth, Ms. Watson."Wayne's answer left Emilia even more puzzled. Alex wasn't the type of person who loved working, right? Since when did he become so obedient and diligent?Emilia instructed Wayne to continue working and supervising Alex. Meanwhile, she fell into contemplation. Alex becoming so proactive explained why even Danny praised him last night and even gifted him a discontinued car that Alex had been eyeing for a long time. It seemed she needed to prepare well. Otherwise, at this rate, the company might eventually return to Alex's hands.…"Ms. Garrison, your skin has been getting better and better recently. If you keep this up, I believe you'll be the most beautiful bride in the world at your wedding."Freya lay on the massage bed and smiled ear to ear at the masseur's compliments. Her wedding with Sawyer was already set for the fifteenth night of the
Because of Marcel, Liam hadn't been intimate with Lana for quite some time. Today, Lana took the initiative to seduce him. As a normal young man deeply in love, how could he resist his lover?In the car, Liam was embracing Lana, in a rush to love her. Lana was taken by surprise. But with the confined space of the car, combined with Liam's towering stature, it was impossible for her to push him away no matter how hard she tried.What was he planning to do in broad daylight? Moreover, it was the end of the day at work, with several of Liam's employees passing by outside. His audacity was beyond belief, not to mention ...Smelling her unique fragrance, Liam found it hard to control himself. His fingers swiftly undid the buttons of his suit. His large hands, carrying an intense warmth, continued to roam over her body."Ah, Cherry, hurry up and come to the headquarters to pick me up. Hurry up, or I might be blinded by these two lovers."Violet felt that if she didn't speak up, Liam
Lana spent almost an hour waiting for them to finish that round of chess. In the end, Marcel won the round by a hair's breadth. Marcel had not once lost a game of chess in his life. This was the first time someone had almost beat him in the game. Moreover, he could tell that Liam had intended for him to win the game just now. Liam even managed to let him win without losing too much on his side. Marcel could tell how bright and quick-witted Liam was throughout the game. It completely changed his initial perception of Liam. Lana was oblivious to any of that as she led Liam and Marcel to the dining room. Marcel was so engrossed in the game earlier that he finally realized he was already feeling hungry. However, his smile froze when he saw the dishes on the table. He scrunched his face.Beef steak with truffle oil drizzle, beef meatballs, beef bolognese … Every dish on the table consisted of beef. Marcel scoffed. "Have you slaughtered all the cows in this city?" Lana smi
On the day they had lost the ownership of their fourth subsidiary company to the Garrison family, Emilia came home and overheard the sounds of Danny laughing coming from the living room. "Howard, you're so smart and knowledgeable. Even Emilia would sometimes find it difficult to answer these topics. "Yet, not only were you aware of these issues, but you could also make a thorough analysis of them. You're a very impressive young man."Alex said proudly, "You're spot on, Grandpa. After all, he's the most famous model student of all time in our school. "Back then, one of our teachers had to be away for a month on sick leave. This guy taught the rest of us history lessons for that entire month. It was unprecedented."Howard frowned slightly. "You need to stop exaggerating, Alex. Learning is a lifelong process. In front of someone like Grandpa Danny, a young and inexperienced man like me could only say so much about what I know." Danny let out a hearty laugh. "It would be great if
"Don't worry. I'll have those people return everything they've received from your family soon. You should just forget that we were ever engaged." Emilia had made it clear what she wanted. On the other hand, Howard still appeared calm and collected. However, there was no longer any hint of politeness in his voice. "Those people? You're truly stone-hearted." Emilia jutted her chin. "Have you forgotten that I'm now the Watson family's successor? I've even changed my last name. Should I still be keeping in touch with those people now?" "If I'm not mistaken, you've only been acknowledged as the successor by Mr. Watson Senior verbally. You're still far from being confirmed as the legal successor of the Watson family." After saying that, Howard walked over to his car and got in. Then, he drove off without sparing Emilia another glance. Howard knew all along how Emilia had always thought he was unworthy of becoming her fiancé. Still, he had no choice but to try to win her favor
