Let Me Go, Domineering Presidents Second Chance at Happiness(10)
19Zachary was sitting on the couch alone. Hearing my voice, he raised his eyes to look at me. His calm gaze differed from the crazed look in the private room that day."I've been waiting for you."He spat out a concise sentence as he stared at me. It was like he was a vampire that had locked on to its prey.I broke out in cold sweat.Wasn't this my house?Where was Fabian?Where was the staff in my house?Why was he alone?I immediately remembered a series of movies I had watched in which the male lead's love had grown into hate, and he proceeded to slaughter the female lead's whole family.With that knowledge in mind, cold sweat dripped down my back when I looked at the calmness on Zachary's face. It was normal for a psychotic killer to act this way after they did their deeds.Zachary stood up and walked over to me without waiting for me to finish overanalyzing the situation. "Let's go.""Huh? Where are we going?" I asked subconsciously, but he didn't reply. Zachary just

21"Ouch! Can you be more gentle? I got injured because of saving you, after all.""How about you do it yourself?" I retorted angrily. Even at such a moment, this overbearing CEO still wouldn't change his arrogant and brat-like temper.The kidnappers snatched Zachary and me from the main road. When we got in the car, they covered our heads with hoods. They turned around all the way and stopped until they reached a remote spot.It seemed that there was an abandoned warehouse before my eyes. The kidnappers were helping each other apply medicine. With my silver tongue, I shamelessly asked the kidnappers for some iodine and gauze on the grounds of "protecting the well-being of the hostages." However, Zachary still complained that I used too much strength when picking out the glass residue from his flesh.Even by looking at Zachary's bloody and mangled arm, I could feel the pain. Zachary's face had already turned pale.I could tell that he was still holding up forcibly and joking with

23In the detention room, a woman sat silently. Her plain clothes showed she lived a hard life, and her beautiful face also displayed signs of aging."Ms. Hill, the kidnappers confessed immediately after they were interrogated. However, this suspect, Rosalie Miller, has remained quiet no matter how we interrogate her ever since she was brought back. Hence, we have no choice but to ask you to assist in the investigation."It was the police officer behind the monitor speaking to me. I guess they had no choice but to come to me. After all, they couldn't torture a silent old woman to extort a confession."Thank you. I happened to want to see her, too," I said to the police officer expressionlessly as I looked at this old woman who had never crossed paths with me."Lili." With a worried look on his face, Julian grabbed me as I was about to leave. "Do you want me to go in with you?""It's okay. I can go there myself."I broke free from Julian's hand that was holding me and left.I no

25A few days later, a rare visitor came to the ward."Ms. Hill, there's someone who wants to meet you."It was Natalie. Judging from her pale face, it was evident that she wasn't doing well these days."Let's have a chat outside."I turned around and walked out, thinking that Fabian, who was still in a coma, wouldn't want to see us quarrel.At the corner at the end of the corridor, Natalie and I stood face to face. "What are you doing here?" I asked.Natalie's eyes turned red and looked even more pitiful, but I wasn't going to watch her cry. "If you're here to let me see you cry, I won't waste my time with you doing so.""Liliana." Natalie held me back before I could leave. Trying to hold back her tears, she said, "Please spare my mother; I beg of you.""You should talk to the police instead of me." I shook off her hand emotionlessly.Natalie looked up at me with a darkened expression and said, "If you let my mother go, I promise not to pester Zachary anymore. From now on, I

27After a series of persuasion, the fickle people in the meeting room calmed down, but they still exchanged glances, calculating the benefits they would get.I took the opportunity and said, "A few days ago, I contacted Shane, the wealthiest man in Broburgh. Larson Group plans to expand its business in Acocester and needs guidance. We have finalized the cooperation, and I am preparing to hand it over to the marketing department for inspection."Those not blinded by the benefits questioned, "I am sure Larson Group is expanding its business in Acocester not solely to help us. If it backfired on Hill Group, how could we handle it, given our current situation?""So what if they have ill intentions? It is up to us whether they could dominate Acocester's market. If they wish to expand their business, they must give in to cooperate with us. Now that the share price of Hill Group has dropped significantly, we also need help to overcome the crisis," I stated.Coincidentally, when I was wo

29For several months, Zachary and I devoted ourselves to planning and investigating.If this collaboration succeeded, the benefits it brought would be continuous, and Hill Group would be able to survive.So I thought about every detail with great care. Although Zachary made things difficult for me in the beginning, he later changed his attitude and finally, we could work together peacefully.Zachary, who began to work hard, made me feel as if all the problems could be solved.In the blink of an eye, I also welcomed my senior year. However, due to how busy work made me shuttle between the company and school, I couldn't even find the time to seek out Julian.As always, he continued to tolerate me, appearing whenever he was needed.Whenever Zachary and I worked together, he never got involved.His thoughtfulness made me feel extremely guilty. When the collaboration became official, I vowed to make it up to him.After nearly four months of preparation, Larson Group finally entere

31"Liliana, do you want me to give you one last chance?"Through the phone, I couldn't help but hold my forehead and replied, "Zachary, what exactly do you want? I thought we were cutting ties with each other."Zachary did not understand my mockery and continued, "Let's meet at Xemora Cafe at five in the afternoon." It seemed that he was afraid that I would not come, so he paused for a moment before he said, "This is my last warning to you and Julian."Although reluctant, I had to show up on time due to Zachary's half-threatening words.In the cafe, Zachary and I sat in the room with a half curtain blocking the view outside.It was the first time Zachary and I met each other after the banquet. After being disgraced by me, he did not withdraw the fund immediately but acted as usual. I did not know what he was up to and dared not to act rashly for a moment."Zachary Zeller, what do you want to do again?"Looking at my defensive and annoyed look, Zachary smiled bitterly. "Liliana

Author: Zhen Zhu Niao Before I could talk to my crush, my dog was already sleeping with his dog.After half a month of dog walking at night in Civic Plaza, I finally ran into my crush again, who was also walking his dog there.Just as I worked up the courage to strike up a conversation with him next to a small bush, he frowned and looked behind me in disbelief.He said in a trembling voice, "Your dog...""My dog?"I turned my head in confusion.My dog.A husky.His name was Lucky.He was on top of my crush's dog, an adorable Border Collie.He was sleeping with her.1Hearing the increasingly rapid breathing behind me, I kicked Lucky twice in a hurry.Lucky, you would ruin my possible romance!With sweat on my forehead, I said anxiously, "Sorry, looks like Lucky can't finish it for now."My crush looked down at me with cold eyes, which made me wrap my jacket tightly.Therefore, a weird scene emerged.My crush and I, one standing and one squatting, watched in sil

15Anyway, there was a more important matter. I asked seriously, "Lionel, are you sure you're with me because you like me and not because of your grandfather?"Lionel looked at me as if I were an idiot. He furrowed his brows slightly with an unhappy look."Of course."His words were concise but the meaning was clear.His voice was not loud but enough to make my heart pound like a drum.My breathing hitched and I couldn't help but stare at him. I turned red from my earlobes to my neck, and he turned his face away and stopped looking at me.It was then that I realized that Lionel also gets shy sometimes."Got it, so I'll go work now!" I said haughtily before sitting back in my seat and discreetly stealing glances at Lionel across from me.The group chat was buzzing with messages, and I quickly scanned through them.[Ms. Barrett has made Mr. Graham happy! Hooray!][Yay! Thank you, Ms. Barrett!][I'll sing you the "Thank You" song!]I always thought that gossip was more common

11That night, I received an exquisitely packaged gift and when I opened it, it was a stunning red haute couture dress.It was from Lionel, and the accompanying card read, [Wear it to the party tomorrow.]I was speechless.I guess I was supposed to thank him.Morgan excitedly felt the texture of the dress and praised it endlessly."Ella, you have fair skin, so red looks good on you. Lionel has good taste! He's not as stupid as you make him out to be."How could I have such an idiotic bestie who liked this kind of red color that even my mother wouldn't wear?Of course, I could only vent to her, and the next day I still wore the festive red dress to the banquet.Lionel looked at me for a long time before looking away as his ears turned unusually red again.I was wearing high heels. Swaying and trying to avoid falling, I had to stick close to him while holding onto his arm tightly.Lionel's body stiffened even more, and I reminded him softly."Why are you more nervous than me?

8When I woke up in the sterilized hospital room, I saw Miranda looking at me anxiously."She's awake, she's awake! Lio, your wife is awake!"When I heard that, I almost choked on my breath.Lionel's eyes were dark, and his expression was indifferent.Miranda noticed that he didn't say anything, so she patted him on the shoulder anxiously."Lio, you're really something! Young people should indulge themselves when they want to. Holding back for too long can lead to problems. Look at Ella. Her nose is already bleeding."I had just woken up and was still a bit dizzy. For a moment, I didn't understand the connection between indulgence and nosebleeds.By the time I figured that Miranda was talking about sex, she had already arranged a presidential suite in a five-star hotel for me and Lionel.It was a sea-view room with floor-to-ceiling windows that looked out onto a stunning sunset vista.My legs were shaking. It was my first time sharing a hotel room with a man, and it was even

4As a competent secretary, wherever the boss was, I would be there.If my boss wanted to check out the snowy scenery, I would accompany him to the outdoor balcony to enjoy the white snow.Of course, the boss sat while I stood."Don't you have anything to tell me?"My heart tightened. Did he guess?The check in my pocket instantly turned into a hot potato. After all, the money belonged to the Graham family.After brainstorming, I recalled all the novels and TV dramas I had read and watched. Was it a trap set by Lionel and Miranda? Were they waiting for me to fall into it?I smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Graham, you're truly brilliant. This check was given to me by Mrs. Graham, and she asked me to take good care of you. I never intended to embezzle these 150 thousand dollars. Even if you didn't mention it, I would have spent every penny of the money on you."I endured the pain in my heart and handed him the check.Lionel lightly tugged at the corners of his mouth, revealing

Author: Chen Chen My bestie suggested to me a get-rich-quick scheme; seduce a CEO and wait for his mother to bribe me with money to get rid of me.To my surprise, when his mother arrived, she cried tears of excitement and said, "Finally, someone dares to seduce my son!"That left me utterly bereft of words.1The road to riches was paved in many ways, but I chose the most difficult path.Finally, my hard work paid off. After experiencing repeated setbacks, I adopted a life philosophy of "the more setbacks, the braver one became." Eventually, I was summoned by the CEO's mother.Contrary to what everyone saw in dramas, this "domineering CEO's mother" was gentle and soft-spoken. She even took me to a hot spring.Despite the snowy weather, I wasn't cold while soaking in the outdoor hot spring, but I was a little scared.Various scenes of family conflict and murders played out like a TV drama in my head, and I couldn't help but shiver.I wanted to confess to her that I was
Let Me Go, Domineering Presidents My Dear Shaun(4)
11No wonder Shaun acted unusual the night before. He was forced to go on blind dates by his family with these beautiful and excellent girls from good families.I didn't know how I parted with Adelia in the end. When I returned home alone, it was dark already. I buried myself in the quilt and stuffed myself for a while until Shaun called me.I didn't answer.I just sent a message to tell him that I was tired and would like to have a rest.Shaun didn't say anything more. He only texted me to have a good rest and didn't come to me after.Looking at the phone with a black screen, the gap between Shaun and me that I deliberately ignored seemed to vaguely appear.Shoot!I didn't want to think about it anymore. I just want to sleep.The next day, I went to Palmer Group to report for my duty.While filling in the form at the front desk, I saw Shaun coming down with people surrounding him.Shaun was so dazzling and outstanding.When Shaun's gaze was about to shift in my direction,
Let Me Go, Domineering Presidents My Dear Shaun(3)
7That day, Shaun talked a lot. And I finally realized, after spending so much time with him, Shaun had gained a special place in my heart.Then, Shaun and I became a couple just like that.The first thing that Shaun wanted to do was to teach Adelia a lesson after being in a relationship with me. Yet, I stopped him. I didn't want our relationship to be made public for the time being, and I planned to tell Adelia once I graduated.Nonetheless, I had not made our relationship public until then. Shaun accused me several times of not publicly acknowledging him as my boyfriend and forcing him to become a jerk who dared not tell people about his relationship with his girlfriend.I had no words.I just realized what an awful person I was.Especially on the night of graduation, I was drunk again after attending a gratitude dinner with Adelia.The last scene I remembered was Shaun pressing me against the wall and kissing me."Emma, what are you thinking about? Why is your face blushing

4The weak couldn't win against the strong. Of course, I couldn't go against Shaun.He dragged me into the mall with a clear target in mind. After a while, Shaun stopped at the entrance of a shop.I raised my head, and an alarm blared in my mind. I immediately understood what Shaun meant when he said he was going to shop with me.Ha.Men.I was certain that men like Shaun, who appeared to be composed and reliable, were actually seducers.Looking at his perfect side profile, I remembered the scene when I first met Shaun.I was in my sophomore year at that time. After hanging out for a whole year during freshman year, Adelia and I established a strong relationship and became best friends.One day, Adelia asked me to accompany her home. When I saw her acting like a thief when she was just going home, I was puzzled.Adelia told me that her uncle was at home that day and that he was the person she feared the most in their family.He was serious and solemn, and only a glance from

Author: Chen Chen After taking a shower, I walked into my best friend's room with a bath towel around my body.I took out a few pieces of bralettes and asked her which one looked better with my new red dress.My best friend, Adelia Palmer, didn't respond for a long time.Just then, a low and deep voice came from the phone."The black one looks good."1I was going for an interview at Specter Technologies the next day. For this interview, I specially asked Adelia to accompany me to the mall to buy a red dress.Red made me look energetic, and it made me feel positive.In fact, I had worn a red dress during my university entrance exam, my thesis defense, and even when I dumped a jerk.During dinner time, Adelia answered a phone call, and her face immediately fell. It seemed that not even a limited edition bag could cheer her up."Emma, Uncle Shaun is back. I'm going to sleep over at your place tonight."I froze.The ravioli in my bowl suddenly became tasteless as a tal
