Love-Battle Executive: Husband of High Society Fails 68: What Makes Her Worth My Love?
Ruoya was deeply in love with Jacob, a fact Lizzie was well aware of. Lizzie had known ever since they returned home together, back to their mansion."But how could he treat you like this? He doesn't care about you at all! Why do you still stay by his side?" Jacob touched her face, his voice filled with anguish, "You've lost weight.""Jacob, don't be so kind to me. I don't deserve your kindness anymore." Lizzie shook her head.Time changes everything, and some people, some things, could never go back to the way they were."No, you are always worth it!" Jacob held her tightly, "Lizzie, I've missed you terribly this past year. I know I was wrong. I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"Lizzie struggled, "Jacob, don't..." Her beautiful eyes shimmered with unshed tears.Jacob held her even tighter, allowing her to lean on him, "Lizzie, why do you insist on torturing yourself? Why must you endure so much pain?" He understood her; he always did.At that moment, Lizzie couldn't hold back her tears anymore. H

Bruno cast him a glance, "How's the investigation going?""Turns out, it's true. Yufenly lost quite a bit of money gambling." As soon as the conversation turned serious, Jepan straightened up. "Boss, you're incredible! How'd you guess it?”"It's not guesswork, some things are just obvious." Bruno snorted coldly. Jianmin Jiang lacked the talent to run a company. A small firm like his only stabilized after the Kolo family's investment. How could it withstand such turmoil?Jepan sat, legs casually crossed. "Boss, are you going to let Jianmin Jiang continue to climb up by relying on the Leng Corporation?" He couldn't understand why Bruno would let Jianmin Jiang leverage the name of the Leng Group, and even land quite a few projects."The higher they climb, the harder they fall. Let them have their fun!" Bruno's eyes hardened. What did it matter if he let him enjoy some temporary delight?"But boss, Lizzie is innocent. Shouldn't you treat her better?" Jepan asked while watching Bruno, but

As Lizzie stepped into the hotel, Manager Chen rushed up to her. "Lizzie.""Manager Chen, what's up?" Lizzie smiled."The boss has made arrangements. Your part-time hours are now down to two. It's still early, so why don't you head to the dining room and have dinner?" Manager Chen suggested, leading Lizzie towards the dining room.Unlike before, Lizzie usually dined with the restaurant staff in the cafeteria. But today, Manager Chen brought Lizzie to a spacious private room. "Manager Chen, what is this about?""Lizzie, I'm just following the boss's orders. From now on, you'll be having your dinner here." Manager Chen smiled.Looking around the luxurious dining room, Lizzie said, "Manager Chen, you really don't have to go through all this trouble. A simple meal in the cafeteria will do.""Lizzie, since the boss personally called and instructed, I can't just change things on a whim." As Manager Chen finished, the waitstaff brought in the prepared dishes."But I feel..." Lizzie hesitated
Love-Battle Executive: Husband of High Society Fails 71: Can He Make Room in His Heart for Her?
Jacob glared at Bruno, "A family matter? Impossible! As long as it involves Lizzie, it's never just a family matter. I won't let Lizzie suffer the slightest insult!" His eyes were burning with rage at him."What do you want to do then?" Bruno's brows furrowed."Bruno, he's drunk, let's not pay him any mind. Let's go," Adeline said, her gaze on the intoxicated Jacob before her. She felt triumphant. As long as Jacob still loved Lizzie, as long as he kept chasing after her, let him see how much faith he had to win Lizzie back. As long as Lizzie left Bruno's side, she wouldn't have any worries.In fact, Adeline was scared. She was scared that one day, Bruno would fall in love with Lizzie. On that day, the one to stay by Bruno's side will always be Lizzie, and she would lose everything.With a casual glance, Bruno prepared to turn and leave."Stay where you are!" Jacob strode forward in two large steps, catching Bruno by the arm. His hand balled into a fist, he swung at Bruno.Bruno dodged
Love-Battle Executive: Husband of High Society Fails 72: She Must Be in His Control
As soon as Lizzie entered the apartment, she saw Bruno sitting on the couch in the living room, legs crossed, holding a cigarette between his slender fingers. He had a relaxed demeanor. When he saw Lizzie walk in, he didn't say anything. He just coldly glanced at her.Feeling uncomfortable under his gaze, Lizzie turned her head and grabbed a pair of slippers from the shoe rack before walking in. "You came back early today!""You came back late, didn't you? Did you have enough time downstairs?" Bruno looked at her, noticing her pale complexion and even paler lips, but he continued to stare at her coldly."I come back whenever I want, do I need to report to you?" Lizzie glared at him, waving away the smoke from his mouth.Bruno extinguished his cigarette and stood up, walking towards her. "Seems like you're very dissatisfied with my arrangements!" He emphasized the word "very," indicating that he knew she had rejected all his arrangements and goodwill."I never needed you to arrange eve
Love-Battle Executive: Husband of High Society Fails 73: She Desires Him
Ruoya gazed upon an enormous portrait adorning one of the living room walls. The exquisite beauty captured within the painting could rival a living person, its enchanting smile causing hearts to flutter.Jacob gently pushed Ruoya aside, his eyes firmly fixed on the picture. "Lizzie, I'm back," he said, his voice carried a tranquil air.His casual remark made her body go weak, and she supported herself against the wall, "Jacob, so this is why you've been hiding here, avoiding the villa because of my sister." Her heart shattered in that instant, aching like an open wound dripping with blood.Ignoring Ruoya's words, Jacob staggered to the couch, picked a beer can from the coffee table, popped the lid, and began to drink.Rapidly approaching, Ruoya snatched the beer can from his grasp, "Jacob, what do you intend? My sister is married. Do you find solace in drinking and staring at her picture all day? Does she care about you? Because of her, Bruno has been oppressing your company for a lon
Love-Battle Executive: Husband of High Society Fails 74 What Does She Want Him For?
"What... what are you laughing about? I see nothing funny here!” Lizzie struggled to keep her composure.“I’m happy. Is there a problem?” Bruno retorted, a mischievous pleasure barely concealed on his face.“Suit yourself. Did you call this early just to tell me you’re happy? No need! I’d be very happy without your call.” Lizzie’s good mood was entirely ruined by him.“I just wanted to remind you that we’re dining at the villa tonight. Arrange your work accordingly.” Bruno hung up abruptly.“Hello!” Lizzie was about to say something when she realized Bruno had already ended the call. All she heard was the beeping of the line. “Such an impolite jerk!” she muttered.Though she complained, she got up from bed. Since she was going to the villa, she might as well get some gifts to take with her. She also had to inform her manager, Chen, that she couldn’t make it to work tonight.Upon entering the office, Adeline noticed the faint smile on Bruno’s face and asked, “Bruno, what’s got you so c
Love-Battle Executive: Husband of High Society Fails 75: Does a Cold-hearted Man Deserve Her Sympathy?
Adeline watched as Lizzie walked away, a surge of anger swelling within her. Did she really not care about Bruno at all? If she didn't care, then why would she come along to the coffee shop, to listen to all these things? Could Lizzie really be that indifferent?She wondered if Lizzie had a heart at all? Or was it that she was still in love with Jacob, that's why she was so indifferent to Bruno?Adeline watched her retreating figure in bewilderment, the hand resting on the coffee cup clenched tightly, turning pale. Why did she feel like she was the loser here? She wanted to strut her childhood love story with Bruno in front of Lizzie, but why was she the one ending up angry?She leaned back into the chair, a picture of dejection.Lizzie walked out of the coffee shop, step by step, telling herself to stay calm, yet her steps grew heavier. At the corner of a street, she squatted down beside a wall. Was this a wound in his heart? Was this the reason for his cold demeanor?Why did her hea

On a sunny weekend, a month later, Bruno drove with Lizzie to the orphanage.Although it was already afternoon, the orphanage was still bustling with activity. Bruno walked hand in hand with Lizzie through the sprawling garden, watching the children running around on the grass, unaffected by the heat. Among them was Adeline.Her once long hair had been cut into a stylish short style, making her look refreshed.There was a pure and genuine smile on her face, devoid of any traces of pain. She had forgotten the past, forgotten the pain she had endured. She was genuinely happy.Xu Wan approached them. "Adeline has been doing well during this time."She stood beside Bruno and Lizzie, reminiscing about Adeline's past. "Adeline used to have a strong sense of inferiority because she felt abandoned by her parents. She always wore a mask of strength and tried to distance herself from this place. But who would have thought that after all these years, she would come back completely transformed."

Bruno gave a nod, "Alright, I understand. I'll accompany Lizzie.""But, boss, what about Adeline?" Lycan spoke up, noticing that Bruno hadn't mentioned Adeline at all."How is she?" Bruno asked flatly. Even though Adeline had taken a bullet for him, his attitude toward her hadn't changed."The details are still unclear. She's currently in surgery," Lycan reported, "What if the situation isn't promising?" Given Adeline's critical condition upon being taken to the hospital, it was uncertain if she'd survive."We'll cross that bridge when we come to it. Keep a watch on her and keep me updated. Lizzie was deeply shaken by this. I need to be with her." Having said that, Bruno retreated into the patient room.Watching the closed door, Jepan murmured, "Lycan, did you notice? The boss doesn't really care about Adeline, even if she took a bullet for him. He didn't even blink.""I know. In his heart, there is only room for Lizzie. She must be scared after what happened. And if the bullet had hi

Lizzie struggled with all her might, but her white blouse was ripped apart, buttons scattering across the floor.Charles stared at her exposed, smooth skin, his eyes locked onto her."Bruno certainly has a good eye," Charles remarked, tut-tutting softly.Lizzie pursed her lips in anger. The way Charles was looking at her felt like an insult."It's just the two of us here. Don't be shy." Charles pulled her close into his arms, planting a kiss on her cheek. The light contact made her feel nauseous from the bottom of her heart.Just as Charles was about to rip off the remainder of her blouse, a loud commotion erupted outside.Before they could react, the wooden door was kicked down. Bruno, dressed in a black suit, stood at the entrance."Bruno," Lizzie cried out in relief. Her heart, held tight with worry, finally eased. She tried to move towards him, but Charles held her back.Charles was taken aback by Bruno's appearance. "Bruno?""So you recognize me, and yet you dare touch my woman."
Love-Battle Executive: Husband of High Society Fails 169: Everything on the Line for Her
Lizzie was tied up, unable to move. Even if she wanted to escape from the high-rise building, she was trapped.Footsteps echoed from outside. The sound of shoes on concrete indicated there were a lot of people approaching. Lizzie shrunk into a corner as the door was thrust open, and to her surprise, Charles was the first to enter."You," Lizzie looked up at him."Miss Lizzie, hello. We meet again." Charles approached her, looking down from his superior height."What do you want?" Lizzie was taken aback; she never expected it would be him.Charles crouched down to her level. "Of course, I've been thinking about you." He caressed her face gently, "I've missed this soft cheek of yours."He was ready to risk it all for her. Bruno had canceled their partnership because of her. Charles wouldn't be lenient either.Lizzie turned her face away, "Don't touch me. Take your dirty hands off me." Was this man really intending to possess her? Just because of that one meeting at the nightclub?"Miss
Love-Battle Executive: Husband of High Society Fails 168 Lizzie is being hunted
Just as Lizzie had risen and was attempting to guide Yelun back to the villa, two men suddenly appeared beside her. They forcefully shoved Yelun's wheelchair away from her grasp. "You guys..." Lizzie advanced to grab the wheelchair, but was held back by one man gripping her arm, preventing her from moving forward.Helplessly, Lizzie watched as Yelun's wheelchair rolled a considerable distance before tipping over, taking him with it.She tried to scream for help, only to realize the park was eerily devoid of people."Who are you and what do you want? Let me go!" Lizzie struggled in vain against their firm grip."Dad!" She yelled, but was swiftly restrained by the two men and forced into a vehicle.With the engine roaring to life, Lizzie watched as the park faded into the distance. She frantically pounded on the car window shouting, "Let me out, let me out!"The car sped further away, and Lizzie swivelled around to look at her captors. She reached for her mobile phone, only to realize i

Bruno rose from his seat and walked over to her. "How did you get here? Did you drive yourself?" he asked. "Yes," Lizzie nodded. "Don't worry, I drove carefully." She was aware that her driving skills were not the best, so she seldom drove on her own. "Next time, let me know if you want to go out. I'll come pick you up," Bruno said, gripping her hand tightly. Lizzie nestled into his arms with a smile. "Understood. You must be hungry. Let's eat before the food gets cold. I made this meal myself." She led him to the couch, opened the lunchbox she had brought, and prepared to serve the food. "Nothing beats having a wife who knows how to take care of me and cook such delicious meals," Bruno said, wrapping one arm around her while picking up the chopsticks with the other hand. He reached out to feed her a bite. "You haven't eaten yet, have you? Try this." "I had a late breakfast. I'm not hungry yet." Despite her words, Lizzie accepted the piece of braised pork he held out to h

"Bruno, Bruno," Adeline watched as the elevator doors closed, was he really so heartless? Just to go back to Lizzie, he could abandon her so easily.Jepan stood beside her, watching Adeline's pale face, "Adeline, should we go? Do you need me to carry you?" he teased, grinning wickedly.Adeline was about to respond when Jepan interrupted her, "I might have thought about it, but I don't have the guts. I don't want to be misunderstood by Louise.""YOU!" Adeline glared at Jepan, who had never shown any kindness towards her. Especially now, when even Bruno had abandoned her, he became even more ruthless."No need, I can walk on my own." Adeline hobbled slightly as she entered the elevator, Jepan followed with a leisurely laugh.Bruno drove back to the villa at top speed. The villa was still brightly lit, were they not sleeping yet?In the living room, Lizzie held their son, both sitting there. Lizzie had a finance magazine in her hand, and their son was playing video games in front of the

The hotel banquet hall, Bruno in a black suit, with Jepan trailing him, still dressed casually."Boss, did you come in person because you wanted to confirm something?" Jepan asked."Isn't Charles coming too?" Bruno looked at Jepan, his smile inscrutable.Jepan nodded, "Boss, I bet you don't know someone else is coming.""Who?" As Bruno's words fell, a familiar voice came from behind."Bruno." Adeline, dressed in a graceful purple, approached from behind.Bruno's face fell as he watched Adeline approach him."Boss, I guess I'll go in first." Jepan wisely withdrew, regretting he hadn’t warned Bruno earlier.Seeing the gloom on Bruno's face, Jepan figured it was best to make himself scarce.Bruno was about to move forward when Adeline grabbed his arm, "Bruno, we're not strangers, are we?""How did you get here?" Bruno halted, addressing her."Bruno, I knew you were coming. You don't want to see me, but I had no choice but to come here." Adeline clasped his arm.Bruno pushed her hand away
Love-Battle Executive: Husband of High Society Fails 164 A Good Choice
Bruno held her tightly, "You should go home early today, I have things to do tonight.""Okay." Lizzie nodded, understanding that he didn't need to tell her everything, aware that he was very busy. Although there was nothing she could do to help, she didn't want her presence to disrupt his work.Before the end of the workday, Bruno had his driver take her back to her apartment. Lizzie had a small meal, her appetite wasn't great. She made herself a bowl of noodles, but only ate a few bites and settled in to watch TV. Bob, her dog, was sitting next to her, more engrossed in the TV than she was.Bruno and Adeline sat in a French restaurant that evening. The dim yellow light and soothing music made the atmosphere elegant and romantic."Bruno, I ordered a couple's set meal, hope you don't mind?" Adeline had already ordered when they were seated."Of course I don't mind, as long as you like it." Bruno was not particularly fond of Western food. As he looked at the premium steak set meal in fr
