While Myka was working part-time at Lucius’s company, she sought out information about Prime International in order to understand what Aster was doing, even if most of the time, she did not get any useful information. Aster was a powerful man in the business world. It was practically impossible for
If no emergencies happened, he would not show up at the company, much less in front of Myka. Even if he knew that she was looking into what he was doing ever since that day, he never thought about appearing in front of her. However, recently, he had been hearing that the boy who helped steady Myka
When Aster walked past Myka like she was not there, she pouted. That b*stard… he really thought he was superior to everyone else, huh?!While Aster did attend the award ceremony, all he did was show his face briefly to give the award to the champion. He did not say a single word. Myka had practiced
…“Laura, can I clock off work early today? Felix is celebrating his birthday, and he insisted that I come.” Myka checked the clock and found that it was almost time for the party. “Alright. Go on. I’ll notify you if anything crops up.”“Thanks, Laura.” She grabbed her handbag and hurried out of th
Sirius sensed the gaze of the woman he walked past. It would not be an exaggeration to say that her gaze was glued to him. Did they know each other?He turned around and met Myka’s gaze. After observing her face, he found her familiar, but he honestly did not know from where. In order to avoid thi
On the second day, Myka was about to attend the only lecture she had when she saw Carol at the foot of the dorm. Stunned, Myka mumbled in disbelief, “Carol? Why is she…”Then, when she saw Adam standing beside Carol, she was completely dumbstruck. Carol was saying goodbye to Adam. Judging by what
One day, after lectures, they went to the cafeteria for food, only to see a huge billboard at the entrance of the cafeteria. It had a poster for a talk held by the university. Aster’s picture stood out like a sore thumb on it. Quite a number of people stopped by to look at it, and Myka heard a lot
After the brief exchange (really just the emcee kissing Aster’s b*tt), it was time for him to give his talk. Aster said that he had prepared some powerpoint slides, which he showed really quickly to the audience before he told them that he was not going to give his talk according to the powerpoint
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
