“So, you’re saying that I’m the one in the wrong here?” Aster put on the expression of a blameless person. “If I hadn’t told you those things, you’d just hate me even more after you come back and hear it from someone else in the Fritzgerald family. I was thinking that you’re smart, so I should prepa
Aside from Prime International, Aster also had Central Real Estate and Paramount Trading. He was chased out of Prime International because the Fritzgerald family gave him monetary support when he first built the company, and they had 50% shares. Robin also wanted to crack the whip on Aster, so he b
Gavin did not complete his sentence, but Carol was not an idiot. She knew that if Kieran told her that he did not go to Royal Court, there was a high chance that he killed David. After leaving the law firm, Carol drove to a road that had less traffic. She was filled with complicated emotions at the
Carol just thought that the question was absolutely ludicrous. “What are you doing here other than trying to drive me to my death?”“I just don’t want to see you continue falling into depravity.”“Is smoking depraved, now? Plenty of women in Northvale smoke! Who on earth decided that a woman is depr
By the looks of it, Aster had really biased views against Titus.At Seventh Heaven Hotel, Rachel learned that Titus did not want to marry her but Carol, the very woman she had called a sl*t just two days ago, and she was so angry that she shot to her feet. “Where are you going?! Stop!” Matthew shou
To hell with chief responsibility!Aster slammed his hands on the table and rose to his feet. He pointed at Titus angrily. “You’re never marrying Carol!”“We’ll just have to wait and see.”Titus’s eyes were full of confidence, as if everything was within his control. …Carol had thought that Titus
Since this was her own problem, Carol thought that she should solve it on her own and not rely on someone else to do it for her.Besides, she was never a puppet who would allow herself to be manipulated. Unless she was willing to get married, no one could force her to, even if they threatened her.
Carol knew Laverna far too well. While she acted like a spoiled princess, she was not a conniving person skilled in hiding her true thoughts. She might have really wanted to treat her to a meal as thanks that day but was not expecting Melecio to show up. Yes. That must be the case. Carol could only
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
