2024-10-29 19:42:56Catherine's POV:
I never expected that today would turn out to be the darkest and unluckiest day in my years with the Greene family.
"This is insane! That guy named Brenda... whatever? Branka or Brandi, that arrogant brat! Who does he think he is?"
My adoptive father, Bennett, paced around the living room with his hands behind his back, infuriated, like an irritated sled dog with a full bladder.
I truly couldn't understand what was the point of him pacing like that. It was just annoying to watch.
"He's probably just an arrogant hoodlum," my adoptive mother, Marian, fumed. "Daring to act like he's above the Greene family? I think he's just toying with us; he's after Fiona's money!"
"Mom," I quickly walked up to her, concerned, and said, "Doesn't that mean my sister is being deceived? What are we going to do? God, she's not still in the dark about this, right?"
Marian came up to me and cradled my face in her hands.
She always did

The car was heading towards the Silver Star Bay Estate—Mine and Brenda's home.After over an hour of bumpy travel, I somehow fell asleep.When I woke up, I found myself in Brenda's embrace. I wasn't sure when he had carried me over or how long he had been holding me in this position. But I could feel that he had become somewhat stiff from being half-crushed by me, yet he still maintained this exhausted posture, not wanting to wake me up."Are you... tired?" I asked, concerned."I can endure this level of tiredness for a long time," Brenda replied, mentioning 'endurance,' which instantly made my face turn red.I felt so strange. How come I've been thinking about that kind of thing all day? The old me would never have been like this. With him, I was gradually transforming into someone even unrecognizable to myself.Smelling the faint scent of sandalwood on Brenda's body, I rested my head on his chest. I found myself greedily wish

Katherine seemed to not notice me and went straight up in the president's private elevator.I knew that only members of the company's board were qualified to use that elevator.Could it be that Katherine is joining Pica Jewelry?It's really intriguing—what could she possibly do here?But all of this doesn't concern me anymore. I haven't forgotten why I'm here."Fiona, you're back!"As I entered the office, my colleagues greeted me warmly.I believe most of them are still wise and friendly—The rumors about my wedding and my relationship with Damon have become off-limits topics."By the way, Fiona, there's a department manager meeting at 9:30. You're aware of it, right? I heard Mr. Patrick has something important to announce."A colleague informed me.My heartbeat slowed down for a moment.Could it be that he's going to announce his wedding with Katherine?The irony is just too much

"Next, I announce a new appointment effective from the first day of the next month. Katherine Green will be appointed as the Design Director of our jewelry division at Picard Group."Damon spoke, and the room fell silent.All eyes turned to me simultaneously, as Katherine was about to take over my position.The few colleagues who had challenged me earlier from Katherine's side couldn't help but wear triumphant expressions.It seemed like they felt they had made the right bet.Damon also looked at me. "Fiona, as the former Design Director, you will be transferred to the position of Design Consultant. The job responsibilities and salary will remain the same, but following the procedure—""Thank you, no need. I came today to resign and hand over my duties."I interrupted Damon firmly, which caused murmurs throughout the room.Damon's face darkened. "Your resignation application has not been approved yet. Currently, you are s

Maybe they were intimidated by my aura, as no one dared to speak up after that.I didn't want to waste any more time with them, so I turned and left the conference room."Fiona!"Damon ran up and grabbed my arm."What do you mean? Are you trying to ruin me?"I looked at him with a puzzled expression, "That's quite a fresh question, Damon. Weren't you the ones trying to ruin me first?""I'm just being truthful, asking you to return what belongs to Katherine."Damon said with sincerity, "Fiona, I thought I had given you enough face. But it seems you're the one who doesn't care about face anymore. Katherine was still pleading with me this morning, begging me not to reveal this. It's unbelievable; I can't believe I've let her down for so long!"I shrugged, "So now you have plenty of time to make it up to her. All I need is a resignation letter signed by Mr. Patrick."Damon replied, "I won't sign it."He put on a stubb

The car arrived, but I didn't see Brendon as I had been eagerly anticipating. Instead, his driver, Percy, was there."Madam, Mr. Capie has some unexpected matters to attend to, so he can't come right now. He asked me to escort you to the office lounge and wait for him there. Alternatively, if you'd like to go home first, that's also an option."Percy explained to me.Although I felt a slight disappointment, I completely understood. I knew Brendon's work was demanding, and I also felt embarrassed about my emotional outburst this morning."It's alright, I don't have any other plans. I'll wait for him here."I replied.I hadn't been to Brendon's workplace before, but I knew it was located in the city hall. However, the city hall was vast, with several office buildings in different sections.Percy led me to a lounge that was luxuriously decorated, resembling an executive suite in a five-star hotel. There was a comfortable relaxation area

They were sitting by the window, cuddled up on the same side.I hoped they wouldn't notice me.I thought that I wouldn't have to deal with these jerks for the rest of my life, but my luck seemed to be really bad.Well, since we were already here, I didn't want these unworthy people to ruin my and Brendon's good mood.Seeing my expression change, Brendon followed my gaze and also spotted those two."Do you want to change restaurants?"He understood my emotions well and it touched me.I shook my head, "No need."There's a saying that goes, 'Different roads lead to the same destination.' I haven't done anything wrong, so just because these two are here, should my husband and I not even have the right to enjoy a delicious restaurant?Brendon nodded, respecting my decision."What are your plans for the future?"Brendon asked me.I knew he was referring to my career plans, and just mentioning it excited me
Love After Marriage： My Poor Husband Is A President Chapter 023 Damon's warning
Damon's POV:I stepped out of the restroom and noticed a man on the adjacent balcony, talking on the phone.It was him!I had seen him twice before. The first time was near the city hall when I chased after Fiona's car and he abruptly blocked my way.The second time was at Catherine's house, where he audaciously accompanied Fiona into her home!Rage boiled within me as I walked towards him.I knew he was the root cause of all this.If not for him, would Fiona have left so resolutely?The Fiona of the past was like a docile little bird, always obediently staying by my side, never resisting whatever I asked of her.Now, because of him, Fiona had changed. She was no longer the person I once knew.I saw Brenda hang up the phone and turn to walk in my direction.He saw me too, yet there was not a trace of surprise or unease in his eyes, as if he hadn't seen me at all!I was infuriated and charged straight

I pushed the door in, and before I knew it, he was pulling me in."Brenda, are you --""Just miss you a little."He picked me up and laid me on the counter.With one hand on my waist and the other on my cheek, she leaned in to kiss me.I gently pushed him away, crying and laughing, "But I'm just outside in the bedroom."His deep blue eyes were like a whirlpool that was about to trap me."I can't wait these distances."He wrenched my jaw and stole my tongue.He put me in a rhythm, and I found myself in the right place.Beneath him was a cool marble platform, behind a smooth, watery mirror.He took me by the waist, pushed up my knees, and slowly inserted the sex organ.It's hot, it's bloated.I felt the thrill of both fire and ice and buried my face in his neck.He only smoked about a dozen times before I had one of the fastest orgasms ever.Apparently, he was caught off guard by m

"No, I'm wearing two masks." Eufez comforted her. I then noticed that beyond the mask, there were some bare scars extending out. I couldn't help but frown: "You did it yourself?" "Damn it, Brenda, would you stop talking. I've just coaxed her." Orpheus complained and said to Fiona, "Don't worry, it's just a little hurt." Detectives, you know, always bleed a little." Fiona whimpered, "Take off your mask and let me see it." "No." Eupheus took a step back, covering his mask. Fiona wants to come forward. I took her by the arm and sarcastically said, "It's too embarrassing to be like this." Come down with me and I'll have the doctor change you back." Fiona looked back at me immediately. "Can the wound on his face be healed?" I said, "Of course you can. It just takes a lot of suffering. But don't worry, he brought it on himself." Fiona was relieved to hear me say that. After all, even a little pain, but still better than this. Then she wiped away her tears and begged earnestly,

Brenda 'Pov:Another call from the kidnapper.I don't know what those people in Security do!All those people, and they can't even look at a cabin on top of a mountain!'Excuse me, Sir. But we did the best we could."The man I sent trembled and replied, "Even on the opposite hill there are our men." We're even using satellites and underground detection systems. Even he couldn't have dug the tunnel without our knowledge.""So he's a magician who teleports himself into it?""... I'm sorry we failed in our duty."Rarely have I been so angry.I feel like I'm on the verge of losing control.A group of them stood in the room with their heads down, looking as if they had done something wrong.But scolding them won't help.I rubbed my brow helplessly: "Forget it. Angelus, didn't you say there was a satellite? Start three days ago, see how people get in. Assistant get the car ready, and contact the local poli

Fiona 'Pov:Brenda wanted to say something else.But the man in the mask just hung up."Do you think he'll come?""I don't know.""Ha ha, you don't trust him so much?" The masked man laughed.I waited for him to laugh enough before he replied, "I was tied up last time, and I'm tied up again this time. He probably thought I was lying to him.""Oh, that makes sense."He nodded thoughtfully."Maybe I should have sounded a little more aggressive, or... Why don't you send him some markers? Do you think I should send him your ear or your finger?""Neither, thank you.""Ha ha, that's not up to you."With that he strode toward me.And at once I took from my waist the pistol that Eupheus had given me: "Stop still!""Ha ha, good."He stopped, but still looked at me with a smile on his side. "Can you shoot?""......"I froze for a moment, but I couldn't help thinking of Brenda

Jenny 'Pov: He bowed his head obediently. And that's when I saw his eyes behind the mask. His eyes were dark blue, like a blue lake, a frozen lake. At first glance, it is filled with light, happy, clear and crystal thin ice. But a closer look revealed that the lake was filled with a thick sadness and a deep, suffocating melancholy. I feel like I've seen those eyes before. Unfortunately, his eyelids and eye sockets were also slashed, and I couldn't make out his face. "Beautiful eyes indeed... I'm kind of falling in love with you, too." "Control your heart, miss. I don't want to be blinded one day." "Ha ha! I laughed a few times and couldn't help but sigh: "You are not an ordinary killer." "Well, what do you mean?" "Because of your eyes, of course. Also, you seem to be wearing a little too much perfume, Mr. Killer. Assassins don't wear perfume this strong, unless you're in a hurry
Love After Marriage： My Poor Husband Is A President Chapter 091 The Killer Friend of Eupheus
Ofez 'pov: I thought about it all night. I want to end this sinful partnership with Jenny. But Jenny, this woman is not that easy to talk to. She already had a fight with me the last time I tried to break up our partnership outside the hospital. This fucking woman has all the evidence she needs to work with me. I underestimated her skills and overestimated my judgment. Every time she came up with a plan of action, I was completely caught off guard. Because I'm full of Fiona, and I miss her and I owe her. I don't have time for anything else. She said that unless we continued to work together, she would tell Fiona everything I had ever done with her. Damn it. I had to keep working with her. At the very least, I need her to think that I'm still going to cooperate. But it never occurred to me that this serpent-hearted woman was thinking what I was thinking. She's cheat

Fiona 'Pov: Which is weird, because they used to hate each other. It's hard enough for Orpheus not to scold Brenda, but why the sudden change of heart today? "I don't know." Ophius sighed and said, "Maybe I did do something wrong." "Ophius?" "I'm fine." Eufez raised his lips and smiled, but his brow was still bitter. I couldn't help but say, "Has anything happened recently? You don't look very well." 'I'm fine, Fiona. Really, I just... Reflecting on myself." "But you look tired." "Is it? Ofeisqiang cheered up and smiled, "Maybe I've been working overtime too long recently." Work, you know, it's always with us, we never lose a moment, more than the family dog." "Ha ha, you really need to have a good rest and take more care of your health." 'Yes, Fiona, I'll have a good rest.' Eufez looked into my eyes, and there was something sad in his eyes, and something... You don't want

Fiona 'Pov: "Oh, yes, one more thing." Ophius suddenly said, "As for the photo problem I mentioned last time, the Criminal investigation Center has given the latest results." "Oh," he said. I doubt it. And he sent a file directly. "This is the thing." "Someone put this virus in my phone. That's why your photos were stolen." "Is there such a virus?" "Of course, my colleague told me that this virus has been in my phone for more than half a month!" If you hadn't warned me, I wouldn't have found out now." "All right." I secretly saved the virus source file and sent it to my company secretary, asking her to help verify the authenticity. Then I asked him, "Well, can we find out who planted this virus?" "Of course." He agreed very easily. But when I asked who that person was, he suddenly fell silent. "Brenda." Ofez hesitated for a long time, then said, "The virus came from Branda

Brenda's eyes darkened for a second when she heard what I said.But he didn't say much, just a light response: "Very good.""Yes. He loved me very much and was always good to me."I said, "Are there any other questions? If not, I should get back. I don't want to keep Eufez waiting too long. '"All right." Brenda offered to move out of the way. "Be careful.""Thank you."I nodded thanks and walked quickly out of the hospital.On the way back, my chest was stuffy and my eyes were pantothenic.But I have clearly convinced myself to give up this relationship, why still heartache?Maybe you don't want to be wronged...Brenda 'Pov:Got shot again.The bullet came from Fiona.The doctor said if it had been a few centimeters to the left, it wouldn't have been an arm.But I'm happy.Because Fiona's worried about me.I hadn't seen that look in her eyes in a long time.

Fiona 'Pov: Rachel and I walked out of the hospital. Yet Eufeus is not here. "Strange, where is my brother? I was waiting here." "Perhaps he has his own business to attend to." "What could be more important than picking you up? Just wait and I'll call him." "No need." It's good that Orpheus isn't here, because I don't want to leave the hospital just yet. Rachel looked at me in surprise. "Why? You don't want to go back and see Brenda, do you?" "HMM." I wanted to see him today. How could I just leave? "All right, all right." Rachel rolled her eyes helplessly. "I knew you couldn't let him go." The two of us hid in the store across the street from the hospital, planning to go back to the hospital to visit Brenda after Jenny left. But unexpectedly, Jenny did come out, but the person who came to pick her up was actually... Ofez? "Why your brother..." In addition to my su
