She was feeling guilty about Adam at first. Seeing him with Carrie had actually made her feel much more at ease.Therefore, without hesitation, she replied to the person who sent the photos. [Thank you for the photos. I don’t know what your intentions are, but thanks to the pictures you sent, I can
Despite Carol’s attempts to seduce him, Titus felt a rising sense of disgust deep within him, particularly when she began to unbutton his shirt. He promptly held her hands down. “Carol, do you really think you know me well?”“I don’t know you well enough.” Carol squinted her eyes and scratched his t
Adam responded with a chuckle. “Who cares? I saved her life back then. Besides, maybe she decided to marry someone else because she saw me become a vegetable. Since she chose the high-class life, she has to endure the loneliness that comes with being a wealthy man’s wife. Otherwise, do you think mar
In the late night, the sound of running water came from the bathroom. Carol lay on the bed. She was completely drained of energy. The disheveled sheets and scattered clothes all around served as a reminder that everything that happened more than two hours ago was not a dream.She did not know what s
She said he looked familiar on purpose. She wanted to see if Adam would admit his identity.“Hello, Miss Caroline. I’m Adam Snyder, President Henry’s partner. Nice to meet you.”As soon as Adam finished speaking, Carol responded with a series of mocking remarks. “There is no need for such niceties,
“Answer me.” Titus leaned down to rest his forehead against hers. “What exactly is love to you?”His scorching breath spread between their noses. Carol felt a sudden rush of heat surging through her body. This sensation reminded her of last night by the windows, where this heat had led her to lose c
Adam did not stop Carol anymore. As he watched her leave, the sorrow in his eyes turned into anger.Titus must have told Carol about it, or else how could she find out about everything?That was what he told Carrie, but he only said that so that Carrie would stop being jealous of Carol.Carrie might
“So, it wasn’t like the media said. Miss Aqua didn’t reject his proposal since she left early that day. But even if she stayed, Mr. Titus wouldn’t be with her.”After hearing Rivas’s explanation, Carol remembered what Nancy had said earlier. It made sense why Nancy had such disdain for Aqua. It turn
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
