Carol could not understand what he meant. Shouldn’t the chances of Aelia coming back be higher if Kieran were divorced?So, when they returned to Maple Residences, Carol voiced her question. “Are you really going to sign the divorce papers once Aelia comes back?”Kieran’s legs had yet to fully recov
Laverna picked up her handbag and started wiping it. She did not even care about how oily it was. “Carol, I’m going to make you pay for this! Pay for my bag!”She stood up in anger and stormed over to Carol with the stained handbag in her hand. The oil stains on the floor made the floor slippery, a
Myka was furious. “Our reporters worked really hard, you know? They even went to Swisserland to get a scoop on Titus, and they finally did it! But before we could publish it, his assistant stopped us! Hah! He sure was generous. He paid ten million dollars just to buy our silence! Is money simply pap
“Will do.” Carol nodded but felt resigned. Since she got up too quickly, the searing pain between her legs shot up her body. At that moment, she finally realized that she would constantly get hurt while she was in a relationship with Titus.“What’s wrong, Carol?” Myka saw the cold sweat on her fore
“Why are you still being so stubborn?”He gripped her chin tighter and made her wince, but she refused to say that it hurt. Had she not learned her lesson yet?“I told you, stop with the petty tricks in front of me. If you’re hurting, say it. If you’re scared, say it. Stop trying to sweet-talk me w
The assistants whispered among themselves about how “someone’s relative saw it for real” and did not bother to verify whether the rumors were true. That was how the modern age worked. The bystanders never cared about how the rumors would snowball. They just spread them. Even if something had never
She took a look into the mirror and noticed that she had eyebags. Quickly, she took out her foundation and eyeshadow palette to touch up her makeup. Once she concealed her eyebags, she left the washroom. …After the morning meeting, Carol noticed that Kieran had switched his secretary to a lady in
On Tuesday, Carol braced herself and sat down together with Kieran in the first-class cabin. Their seats were right next to each other. Once they sat down, the air stewardesses occasionally snuck peeks at them. After all, they were both attractive people, and they had not actually told the entire w
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
