Hansel wasn't one to back down either. He raised his fist and swung back at Paul. "How dare you hit me? Who do you think you are?" he snarled as he attacked Paul. "When I was being intimate with Miranda back then, you were just a nobody!"Paul intercepted his punch easily. Unlike Hansel's furious a

Once Miranda returned home, she immediately started arranging her books. She was drenched in sweat after she finished placing them neatly on the shelves. Walking into the living room after her shower, Miranda noticed the ointment she'd left on the coffee table. She picked it up and unscrewed the ca
"Come over," Hansel replied. On the other end, Ingrid almost jumped for joy under the covers when she read the message. She'd intentionally tried to test Hansel many times before, even with some hints of seduction. However, he'd never responded.Ingrid thought it would be the same this time as well
"Have you finally come to your senses?" Zach shot to his feet. "Are you going to stop acting like you're a man without any mortal desires?"Despite the sarcastic remarks, Hansel remained expressionless. He didn't even raise a brow."There's no special meaning to it, and it's not my first time doing
Miranda chuckled. "Shouldn't I be treating you instead?"Winter raised her brows. "We're best friends! It doesn't matter who treats who. Alright, it's decided! Get ready. I'm coming over to pick you up now."Miranda put her phone down and went to her room. She opened her closet and picked out a v-ne
Miranda raised her head and found that Paul's chin was almost touching her forehead. If she hadn't grabbed onto his arm, she would've ended up pressing her face right against his chest…Miranda snapped out of her reverie and took a few steps backward.Paul swallowed unnoticeably and put his hands do

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
