She was calling him by name?She remembered that Nancy too, called Titus by name, and her instincts told her that this woman had a special relationship with Titus. Hence, Carol did not beat around the bush with him and said, “Ex-mistress. Does that count?”“Ex-mistress?” The tattoo artist chuckled
Titus did not wake her up. He tiptoed to her bed. When he saw the crown of leaves on her back, he smiled in satisfaction. There was also a wicked glint in his eyes. Ever since Aster showed up, it had been a long time since Titus was in such a good mood. He took a step forward and looked further dow
“You *sshole!” Carol swung her hand at his face. But just when her hand was about to land on his face, Titus grabbed her wrist. “You only just realized it? It’s too late. You can never get rid of those tattoos. My name will be forever branded on you until the day you die!” “Why did you do this to
Everything that she saw was just far too shocking, but she also felt jealous after that shock subsided.The room was over 100 square meters big, and portraits of a woman filled its walls. Carol could see that the woman was Aqua. The person who drew these portraits must be really close to her. If Aq
But she was about to die of boredom here!Aside from going to the movie room to watch movies, she had no other ways to divert her attention. Even though she could go to the study room, she could not calm down and read in this place that was no different from a dungeon, no matter how beautifully dec
Sirius could not rebut what Myka said. After all, he did not think favorably of the prospect of Titus getting together with Carol either. Both of them were too extreme. Titus was decisive, and he belonged in a family full of conniving b*stards. His brothers coveted Black Corporation, and Richard wa
When Nancy was the only one left, her smile faded away. She looked down at the bandage around her left wrist. She knew that if she removed the bandage, she would come face to face with an ugly scar. She also knew that the scar would stay with her for life. When she slit her wrist, she was already aw
Titus stood at the doorway and stared at Carol for a moment. When he saw the panic in her eyes, he stepped in and shut the door. Then, he unbuttoned his shirt while staring at Carol, whose hair was still dripping wet and who only had a towel around her. He said coldly, “Come here.”Carol realized th
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
