When Titus heard Carol calling out to him, he quickly put out his cigarette and went over to help her up. “I’m thirsty…” Her throat was on fire. It was dry and scratchy. After putting a pillow behind her, Titus left the bedroom. When he came back, he had a glass of water in his hand. Carol had dr
Aster had spent his wedding night in his office, and his head was hurting a little from his hangover. He sat up from the sofa and massaged his aching temples. “I’ve looked into how he got the money. He got it through legal means.”“Even if he did, you shouldn’t work with him! Have you forgotten that
With a disdainful look in her eyes, Carol said, “Have you heard the story of the farmer and the snake?”“Are you saying I’m the snake?” Adam had a cigarette between his fingers. His smile grew resigned. “If I were really the snake, you’d have died a long time ago.”“Should I be thanking you?”“Even
Titus never removed the tie from Carol’s hands, even though Carol kept begging him to do it. “Honey, untie me, please…”He ignored her and pulled her closer by the waist. Two hours went by. In the president’s office, the ashtray in front of Adam was filled with cigarette butts. He had a cigarette
After learning why Titus invested in Insignia Corporation, Carol could already imagine how angry Adam was after learning the truth. Considering how jealous Adam was, he would not allow Titus to walk all over him. As of current, Titus was the second largest shareholder of the company. If Adam did n
Carol rubbed her eyes to make sure that she was not dreaming. Once she was sure that Titus was indeed kneeling in front of her, she covered her mouth. She was in so much shock that she found herself speechless. At the sight of her wide eyes, Titus knew that his apology was effective. If he had be
Carol did not sleep well that night. When Titus went to the company, she quickly went to the bathroom and opened another test kit. Five minutes later, she saw two red lines on the test, and she was so excited that she wanted to cry. She covered her mouth and wanted desperately to tell Titus about
Aster smiled. It had been a long time since Myka dissed him, and his mood turned better. “Do you have time tonight?”“What’s this? Miss me?” Myka intentionally licked her lips and walked over to wrap her arms around his neck. She even pressed her body flush against his. “Or is your wife unable to sa
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
