“If I don’t, you’re going to kick up a fuss again, aren’t you? But we can’t get a divorce right now. You should know that Abner Corporation’s survival depends on this month. Everyone is waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves. Our 20th anniversary is in ten days. If we don’t hold a celebration, e
When Titus saw that Carol was awake, he put out his cigarette before walking over to the bed and lifting her chair. “Why can’t I be here?”“Aren’t you supposed to be in Surich?”“Are you disappointed to see me here?”Carol shook her head. “You should know why I asked what I did. This is a hotel, and
Titus gave Carol no time to answer and just kissed her. Against her own wishes, she wrapped her arms around his shoulders and dug her nails into them. “No, Titus…”…In the end, Carol had to admit it. She lost. Terribly. …Titus never hid his desires. If he wanted to sleep with someone, he would e
Aelia’s words made Kieran wonder. He did not suspect her. He was just surprised that Carol had opened a s*x toy company behind his back. He immediately headed to Seventh Heaven to ask Carol about it. …After parking her car at Seventh Heaven’s parking lot, Carol was not in a hurry to get out. Her
“It’s nothing. Go do whatever it is that you need to do.”Carol could tell that Kieran had something to say to her, but she did not ask him about it. She went over to help the hotel staff set mineral water bottles on the tables, then position the chairs. Once she was done with work, Kieran was nowhe
Carol ignored Aelia’s words and went straight to the top level. She did not even knock on the door and just barged into Kieran’s office. “Let’s talk, Kieran.”Kieran looked up and gave her a cool look before he shut the folder in his hands. “What do you want to talk about?”“About what I did behind
“The experience would be improved by having a pretty lady with me? Sure, I can certainly agree with that statement. Should I go back and bring you here?”Carol gave up on teasing Titus. What if he actually came back to bring her over?“Um… I’m at Seventh Heaven. I can’t stay away for too long. I ha
“How did you know I don’t sleep on white bed sheets?”Kieran gave her the stink eye. “I’m your husband. How could I not know your likes and dislikes?”Carol had no retort for that. Kieran helped her change the bed sheets and blankets. When Carol saw that Kieran had no intention to leave, she said
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
