Myka answered without hesitation. “Take it. Buy your family’s house. We’ll discuss the rest later.”“Thanks, Myka. Really.”Carol teared up. Myka was always the one who helped her during the most crucial moments. “Why are you thanking me? Without you, we wouldn’t have been able to build Tiny Blessi
When she took a turn and got to the smoking area, she saw Titus having a smoke. She immediately pretended to be shocked. “What a coincidence, Mr. Titus. Are you having dinner here as well?”Titus just gave her a cool glance. “Didn’t you see me just now? Why pretend to look surprised?”Carol laughed
“Aren’t you hungry, Miss Carol?”Carol shook her head. “I’m not really hungry. Please enjoy your meal, Mr. Titus.”In all honesty, though, she was really hungry. Titus picked up his cutlery and cut open the abalone on his plate before he said, “Even if you’re not hungry, try the abalone. Trust me,
She only cared about whether she was his wife? Hah!Titus gripped her chin tightly. Scorn flared in his eyes. “Is being his wife so important to you?”“Yes.” Carol met his gaze fearlessly. “We live in two different worlds, Mr. Titus. You’ll never understand how hard it is for people like me to climb
After Carol returned to Maple Residences, she immediately ran into the bathroom. Without even removing her clothes, she turned on the shower and let the water wash over her. A tidal wave of upset tears spilled out of her eyes as well. She kept scrubbing her neck and the areas underneath her collarb
Carol immediately left for Tiny Blessings without even taking leave. Myka was holding a form that Titus had ordered Rivas to send over in the morning. “Carol, Titus Black is serious. He really wants to pull back his investment.”Once Carol took the form, she saw the reason: dissatisfaction toward
When Carol noticed that Titus was about to pull back, she tightened her hold over his wrist and repeated, “I really am a virgin!”“What does that have to do with me? I can get whichever woman I want! Do you actually think I care about whether you’re a virgin or not?! Let go!”Titus grabbed her wrist
Boaz stopped talking. Together with Sirius, they watched Titus continue drinking. Once he got black out drunk, they carried him to the presidential suite.…Carol went over to Myka’s place, but she did not tell her what Titus did to her. Myka sensed that something was off about her, but she did no
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
