Carol did not turn around. She pretended to be calm and, together with Kieran, stepped aside to make way for Titus. He approached Richard with a wickedly charming but serious smile and handed the man a folder. “Here. Your present.”He then gave Abatus and Melecio indecipherable looks. Was she imag
Carol’s heart raced. She shut her eyes so that she would not see him anymore and prayed that Titus would not discover her. Titus did not know that there was someone else on the stairwell. He yanked off his tie, unbuttoned the two buttons on his collar, took out a lighter from his pocket, lit up a c
Even if Carol was going to divorce Kieran, she would not choose to be with Titus. If she got involved with a man like him, she would just invite her own doom. “You might have forgotten, but I’m Kieran’s wife. As long as I don’t get a divorce with him, I won’t need to return the money I owe to the
Titus wrapped an arm around Carol’s waist and pulled her into the room. The moment the door closed, he pinned her against it and grabbed her chin while looking at her in disdain. “Are you playing hard to get? Did you make me angry on purpose so you could come over to apologize?”“Apologize, my *ss!”
Rivas did not just bring a shirt over. He also brought medicine and gauze. But he did not stay for long. Due to a great sense of judgment, he left. He had noticed a pair of women’s heels at the entrance!Once Carol heard the door closing, she immediately came out of the bathroom, but, unfortunatel
Over the next few days, Carol could not calm down at work. All she could think about was Titus’s well-being. She had not seen him since the birthday party. There was a news report in the afternoon saying that Titus had officially joined Black Corporation and become its president. His authority was
Carol drove to the factory. When she arrived at the warehouse, she saw Myka guarding more than ten containers while looking dazed. She went over and pulled her up. “What did they say?”“They said that our business operations are illegal! And that we’re plagiarizing Yapan! They’re going to sue us fo
When Carol saw Titus’s sharp gaze, she set aside her urge to ask him what he was trying to do. Instead, she said, “I recall you mentioning in your complaint that our products weren’t effective. Sex toys only add spice in bedroom activities, so it’s impossible.”“Oh? Are you saying that you’ve perso
Since then, the Fritzgerald family fell from grace, and the shock was so great that Robin died in prison. During the funeral, Aster stared at Robin’s photo on his tombstone and smiled. “See, Grandpa? I still managed to destroy the Fritzgerald family’s cage in this timeline.”The Fritzgerald Corpora
“I know that you’re trying to fool me into becoming your puppet again. Over the past decade, I worked hard for Fritzgerald Corporation. I did whatever you asked me to, but I won’t listen to you when it comes to marrying someone who will spend the rest of her days with me. If you really want a puppet
Sirius could not figure out what she meant and could only nod. Myka did not want to stay here any longer and left to look for Aster. He was at the door of the doctor’s office. By the looks of it, he had just come out. “Well? I’m fine, aren’t I? I told you I was.”Aster ruffled her hair affectionat
He took over the report from Myka’s hands and took a look. But it only made him angrier. “You’re pregnant?”Myka slapped her hand over her forehead. She did not even have the time to explain what had happened and could only say, “Look at the name.”Feeling skeptical, Sirius checked the name, only to
What she said made Aster so happy that he rushed over to Myka like a child and kissed her forehead gently. “Alright, sweetheart.”If she were not injured, he would have picked her up and twirled her around simply because he was too happy. After Aster bade her goodnight, he turned the lights off for
In her despair, she gave up on fighting back. Suddenly, they heard a gunshot from outside. The three men were shocked. Did they interrupt some trade between criminal organizations? If that was the case, they could not stay anymore. They had to leave. But soon after they stepped out, they retreated.
She reached the third floor. The two men were about to meet up with the man on the first floor. Myka quickly went to the second floor. She had to seize the chance to jump. Otherwise, when the three of them came up to look for her, she would have a hard time escaping. Myka looked out one of the wind
Those two men did not search quickly. She only heard them getting closer after more than one hour passed. They were right outside. They had even entered the apartment. Myka held her breath. Her heart raced. “There’s a closet here. She might be hiding inside.”“Are you blind? The drawers are small
Robin hung up. All he could think about was what Aster told him just now. He wanted familial love? What a joke! The Fritzgerald family had built a business empire. If they had let themselves be controlled by those useless emotions, their empire would have fallen to ruins a long time ago!He answere
