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
But why would he pretend to not know her, then?Myka felt thirsty and wanted to grab some water when Felix took the bottle and opened it for her. Myka grabbed the bottle and took a sip. Aster saw the entire thing again. He really did not want to see Myka being lovey-dovey with another man. When sh
Everyone felt a little awkward. When the emcee wanted to come forward to salvage the situation, Aster said, “I don’t know why you’d ask such a question, but here’s your answer: I didn’t know you a second ago, but I’ll remember you after today.”What on earth was that answer?! He might as well not ha
“Regret? Girl, have you watched too many soap operas and think that company presidents all fall in love with university students? Do you think that you can attract my attention if you act like an airhead?“Rich men are creatures who think with their d*cks. Don’t go thinking that you’re different jus
“Sure. That’s exactly what I want. Otherwise, someone is going to think that I’m an idiot and keep trying to look for ways to attract my attention. I don’t want anyone sticking to me like glue.”Myka knew that he was talking about her, but despite all of his denial, she was sure that he had returned
Phoebe was down with leukemia…Myka’s mind went blank. It was at this point that she was certain that everything in the original timeline had been brought forward. “Don’t be sad, Myka. Leukemia can be treated.”Once Myka thanked Mrs. Lawrence, she immediately went to Northvale Hematology Hospital.
…The next day, Myka returned to the university to grab her bank card. The money she had saved up over this period of time was all there. She went to her counselor to apply for leave before she went to the hospital. On her way, she ran into Felix, who was going back to his dorm after training. The
As Myka was shackled to the cross, she cast a cool look at Aster, who sat in the VIP booth. The sight of his shock and puzzlement made her scoff. Heh. Why put on the surprised act when he had the memories of the original timeline? He was so fake!Suddenly, Aster regretted his actions. He had though
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
