Carol did not care about how the shopping assistants perceived her. She grabbed the box of condoms and stuffed it back into her handbag. Lily wanted to continue yelling at Carol, but she could not. She could only glare at Carol while she left. “Mom.” Laverna was worried that her mother would get e
When Taylor heard that Adam could already sense the world around him, he looked displeased. “Since you believe in Adam, why don’t you wait for him in Swisserland? You’ve already gotten a divorce with Kieran, and you know how he feels about you.”“I’m Adam’s sister,” Carol said firmly. “No matter wha
Taylor said, “Once a businessman gets involved in politics, he also finds himself tied with underground organizations! Titus Black has a really complicated background. You can’t get too close to him! It’s dangerous!”Carol knew that Taylor was saying it for her sake, especially when he mentioned the
Even so, no one came forward. Titus crushed the cigarette and said coldly, “Do you really believe that old coot can protect you?”One of the security guards stationed at the gate stood forward, but it was not to admit that he was the mole. “Boss, we’ve been working under you for some time, and we r
Carol watched Titus with a grin. His face remained calm, which went to show that he had gotten used to the question. “It’s fine. If you’re not going to marry me, just say it. I’m shameless, so I won’t feel sad about it.”She smiled and continued plucking the spinach. When Titus saw how nonchalant
Titus gave her a cool look, then clicked on the next report. “What is it?”When Carol saw that he was no longer paying attention to her, she tightened her grip on the gift box behind her and thought that she should not invite ridicule. “It’s nothing. I was just here to tell you that it’s late and y
Aqua’s answer was basically telling everyone that she was together with Titus. She had also deliberately not told the people that the pictures were taken five years ago in order to deceive them. By the looks of it, she intended to use this method to force Titus into admitting that she was someone i
“You’ve targeted my life repeatedly. Did you actually think I didn’t know the two of you were behind all those attempts? You worked with Leah Louise to embezzle company funds behind Dad’s back, and you used that money to hire assassins to kill me. Why should I keep this a secret for you?”“That’s 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
