Hansel was in the middle of a candlelit dinner with Ingrid at an upscale restaurant. When he saw the messages, his face fell.Ingrid saw how his expression turned dark all of a sudden. "What's wrong?" she asked cautiously. Biting back his anger, Hansel said nothing. He unlocked his phone and typed
Sam didn't ask further. Smiling, he said, "We just opened a bottle of Burgundy. Do you want a glass?"As he spoke, he filled half a glass and handed it to Hansel.Hansel took a small sip. "Not bad." After a pause, he pretended to ask casually, "Didn't you say Miranda was here earlier? How come I don

Ingrid's heart was beating loudly. She took a deep breath before following Hansel inside.She already knew the mansion was huge and bright, but this was still her first time inside after all. The architecture was very modern, and the color scheme mostly consisted of neutrals. It looked low-key, but
"Hmm?" Hansel raised an eyebrow."Would you dare register my fingerprint here?" Ingrid pointed at the electronic lock on the door. She pulled a sad face, looking like a kicked dog. "I've had to wait outside your door a few times. Look, I have three mosquito bites on my arms and another one on my le
No one knew when or how the Snider family would retaliate against the Cliffords, and Joli couldn't risk gambling with his family's safety. At that moment, he was trapped in a dilemma.Sam noticed his inner turmoil but chose not to press the matter further. Everyone had their path to follow, and as o
Sam wanted Joli to understand that taking down the Sneider brothers was just the beginning. Their father, Weston, was bound to step in, and he would be an even bigger problem. This was his way of reminding Joli to start planning ahead."…Right now, the Sneider family's biggest concern is getting Ken
Paul also seemed stunned as well. As their gazes locked, Miranda suddenly shot him a radiant smile. The unexpected brilliance of her smile dazzled Paul and threw him off guard. The calm waters of his heart stirred and caused rippling waves of emotion that he couldn't suppress. At that moment, Sam
Sure enough, the lead officer from the city police department nodded slightly toward Paul. "We'll take them away now.""Good, I recommend doing a drug test on them," Paul said."Rest assured. We've got it covered."The Sneider brothers' faces turned ashen when they realized they had underestimated t
"Not bad." Sam nodded with satisfaction. "That's good to hear," Gerald said.After all the commotion, it turned out the burly men were sent by Gerald. Kenny and Shawn exchanged a glance. Their faces visibly turned pale. Just as the brothers were about to sneak away, Gerald's men had already antici
That man was the so-called, fearsome "Mr. Black". When they saw their backup arrived, the thugs who had been taken down earlier scrambled to their feet. They rushed behind the newcomers to seek protection while complaining loudly."Mr. Black, it's them! Not only did they hurt Kenny and Shawn, but t
Sam said, "Drop us off at the entrance of the village in a bit."Micah was surprised. "Huh? You're not going to the Clifford residence after all?"…Madison glanced at the two burly men in the distance. "So, Mr. Cooper went to call for backup?"Sam nodded.Madison blinked as a curious thought appear
The two of them had gotten into the pickup truck at 7:30 am. Sam was unable to handle the bumpy ride and ended up vomiting. Paul turned his head to look out the window. After he rinsed his mouth with bottled water, the first thing Sam said was, "I'm not carsick."His next words were, "There's some
Paul withdrew his hand, and Kenny collapsed to the ground like a crumpled rag. He stepped forward and crouched down to examine the wound on Shawn's leg. "You won't die," he said nonchalantly. Whether unintentional or not, Paul stepped on Shawn's wound as he stood up. The blade was driven deeper int
