Hence, after she watched Titus leave, Carol picked up the card and said, “I don’t like owing anyone anything either.”…Half a month later, Carol surprised Aster by visiting him. When he saw her appearing before him with delicate makeup on, he thought that he was seeing things. “Have you broken up w
Titus had ignored her several times before, but Carol could sense that this time, it was different from the previous times. During the previous times, his gaze burned with anger, but this time, his expression was just like hers. They were both calm. He also ignored her intentionally in the past, b
Sirius, struck by the punch from Titus, was a bit disoriented. After a moment of shock, he suddenly came to a realization!“Oh, I can’t believe I didn’t think of that!” He smacked his forehead, then turned around and admonished Boaz. “Apologize to Titus now!”“Why should I apologize to him?!” Boaz s
“It’s a long story. I’ll tell you later.” Aster looked at Carol and said nothing else.Carol could tell he was keeping her in suspense on purpose. After passing through security, she went to retrieve her bag. “You guys can take your time with the story later. I’ll head off first.”Myka, seeing her a
In the restroom, Carol clenched her teeth in pain with beads of cold sweat forming on her forehead and trembling hands. Once the intense pain subsided, she stood up. Catching a glimpse of the crimson stains, she recalled the doctor’s warning. If such conditions occurred frequently, she needed to rev
The gentler Adam smiled, the more frightened Carol felt. She felt a little helpless. “Adam, back then, I…”“It’s all in the past.” Adam interrupted her. He raised his hand to gently stroke her cheek and gazed indulgently at her. “From today onwards, you are still my Carol.”…Carol was tossing and t
From that day forward, Adam’s personality underwent a drastic change. During the day, he diligently worked on his rehabilitation with Carrie’s assistance, but at night, he willfully unleashed his lust on her.Or, more accurately, Carrie unleashed her lust on him.Because in the first six months afte
Carol admitted that she did have feelings for Adam before meeting Titus. However, those feelings had evolved into a sibling-like affection.She felt an extreme repulsion to Adam’s kiss.“You can’t do this to me!” She broke free with all her strength and quickly ran away.Adam wiped the corners of hi
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
