Titus was rough with Carol. He grabbed her waist and pressed her flush against him. Even if there was no longer any space between them, he still felt that it was not enough. He picked her up. “No! You’ll leave marks!”Carol pushed his head away and tried to push his hands as well, but she could no
Carol collected her thoughts and heard Myka say, “I heard from Sirius that Nancy Lilac was high on the autism spectrum when she was a child, but Titus Black helped her become normal. She became a fashion designer later on because of him too.”Carol did not understand. “She became a fashion designer
Sirius had never seen Titus so angry before. No, more accurately speaking, he had never seen Titus angry at all. Even though Titus was infamous for having a hot-temper, he was also famous for being able to keep it in check. Even when Abatus and Melecio’s assassins almost killed him, Titus did not f
Nancy immediately teared up and bit down on her lip with her head bowed. Then, she looked up at Andrew eagerly. “If you keep quiet, Titus will never know.”“There’s no such thing as absolutes in the world.” Andrew was disappointed in his sister. “You just don’t understand what you’ve done wrong, do
Toy.That one word stung Carol’s heart like a stake. Even though she already knew that a businessman like Titus would never do something that would bring about negative consequences to him and cast aside his reputation for a “toy” like her, hearing that still hurt. “Kieran, you’re being childish.”
Did a woman come in before him?“What’s this?”Titus looked at him and exhaled. When he spoke, his tone was one that said he would not take no for an answer. “Within a week, I don’t want to see Kieran Abner and Abner Corporation in Northvale anymore. You know what to do.”In the end, he still decide
By the time Carol returned home, it was already past midnight. Exhausted, she sat in her car with her back against the seat and her eyes closed. She almost did not have the energy to get out of the car. Too many things happened today, and she did not even have a good sleep the night prior, much les
All she could think about was what Bella said.You should have died! You brought about your parents’ deaths, and you got Adam into a coma! You should have died to keep Adam company in death!”She had died once. After her parents passed away, she overdosed on sleeping pills to take her own life.
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
