"Bang!" The door collapsed from the force of the kick, slamming into the trash can next to it and sending dust into the air. The loud sound echoed in the air, proving the strength of Faye's kick. Lincoln was dumbfounded. He had always known that Faye was powerful. But for a delicate woman like Faye to kick down a door, just how hard did she kick? Most importantly, how could a young woman with a short stature possess such great strength?Did the strength come from the thought that Cedric had betrayed her? Still, it was shocking. Faye couldn't be bothered with the look on Lincoln's face. She stepped over the door. Despite not exerting much strength, the door squeaked like it couldn't withstand her weight. Lincoln trembled in fear. When he stepped on the door, he found that it didn't make a sound; he couldn't help but look at Faye like she was a monster. Faye walked past the general office area and stood before a door leading to a bedroom. As the vice president and the pi
Cedric carried Faye to Nathan. When Cedric carried her into the emergency room hurriedly, shouting for Nathan. Nathan thought something horrible had happened. Cedric said Faye’s leg was injured and asked Nathan to check on her and prescribe some medicine. Nathan crouched down before Faye and stared at her perfectly unharmed leg thoughtfully. Did he fail as a doctor for failing to spot the injury? Or did Cedric love his wife so much that her reddened foot due to walking too much was considered an injury?"Ahem!" Sensing his awkwardness, Faye felt uncomfortable as well. "Dr. Nealand, it’s been a while since I’ve worked out, and I exhausted the muscle on my leg just now. "The tip of my foot hurts a little, and my calf is numb. Just give me some medication to help with blood circulation."Though her medicine would work just as well as Nathan’s prescription, Cedric cared about her, and she decided to give him a chance to prove himself. After all, if she could do everything herse
When Faye and Cedric arrived at the ward, Frederic had just woken up. He remained dazed when he saw them. "What … happened to me? Why am I in a hospital?" He glanced at Cedric with confusion, his eyes lighting up when he saw Faye. "Faye is here, too?"Faye nodded. "Father."Cedric glanced at Frederic. "Don't you know how you ended up here?"Frederic's heart sank. "I-I …"Memories of Astrid meeting him flashed by, and realization dawned on him. Frederic frowned and asked, "Did that Moore girl do this to me?"Cedric raised an eyebrow without saying a word. "But why? She came to ask for my help, and I've already agreed to do so …""What if asking for your help was just an excuse? And she went to you to knock you out so that she can get me here?" Cedric's words stunned Frederic. "So … It was you that she was after?" His eyes widened as he glanced at Faye, then at Cedric. "You little jerk. You didn't do anything to Faye, did you?"Cedric couldn't be bothered to look at him
Cedric didn't share all the disgusting things Astrid said as Frederic was there, so he simply briefed through it. All he said was that she worked with Anastasia to set both him and Faye up. Because of that, Cedric snapped and decided to teach Astrid a lesson himself. Faye initially thought that Frederic would reprimand Cedric for being reckless and that he shouldn't have resorted to violence. After all, what he did was illegal, especially when he crippled Astrid. However, Frederic slammed his palms on the table and yelled angrily, "It's bad enough that she set my son up. How dare she set my daughter-in-law up? "The Moore and Streep families have stepped out of line!" His expression darkened, and he continued, "If it weren't for the Shaw family's support, those two families wouldn't have gained power as they did! Both Astrid and Anastasia are plotting to get my son. "They couldn't marry into the Shaw family with their own abilities, so they turned and bullied my daughter-in-
Anastasia woke up the next morning past ten to someone banging on the door. She opened her eyes dazedly, couldn't remember where she was and what had happened for a moment. She was sore all over, feeling almost as though she had been run over by a car. There were bruises, wounds, and dried fluid all over her body. Her throat was dry, and her eyes were swollen. Powerless, she could barely get out of bed. What happened to her? What happened last night?She tried her best to remember and realized she couldn't recall a thing. The banging on the door woke Anastasia and the men who hadn't left the room. Compared to her exhausted and aching state, the men were all refreshed and satisfied. "Wake up! Hey, someone is there!" The man who woke up first rolled out of bed and accidentally caught a glimpse of Anastasia, who was still naked. He jolted and couldn't help but react to the sight. The scenes from the night before flashed through his mind, and he swallowed hard. Realizing
The next morning, Faye sat in her office and discussed the collaborative designs with Cameron. The high-value order for Anastasia had been completed, and whether Anastasia would come to collect it was none of Faye's concern. Whether she came to collect the order or not, Faye wasn't going to let her escape paying.The collaborative designs for the new collection were almost ready. Faye only needed to finalize them with Cameron in Jorn City, followed by preparations for customization and the launch event. At this point, Cameron's fight against Allure Designs had concluded, with Allure Designs falling. His inclusion in Light Moon Designs would certainly mark history. Then, Light Moon Designs would reach new heights. With Cameron on board, Faye could relax a bit. Over the past two years, Light Moon Designs had heavily relied on Faye. While there were skilled designers on the team, they were too few. They often said it was because Faye was so outstanding that other senior desig
Anastasia came with a large group of people who clearly looked hostile.Some even had weapons, so it was hard for anyone to believe they weren't here to cause trouble. Faye simply glanced at them and didn"t pay them any mind. With a smile, she said, "You must be joking, Ms. Streep. "Light Moon Designs has always honored its commitments. We promised to deliver the dress to you today. Of course, it is ready."With that, she calmly stood in front of Anastasia and gestured politely. "Ms. Streep, this way, please."Anastasia snorted and held Caleb"s arm. "Do you mind if I bring my bodyguards with me? After all, considering how capable you are, Ms. Fischer …""Of course, I don't mind, Ms. Streep. You are the one who needs to try on the gown. If you don't mind having them watch, I wouldn't have any objection either," Faye replied pointedly. Anastasia wasn't the only one who could be sarcastic. Faye could be sarcastic, too. Anastasia was clearly hinting that Faye had plotted agains
"Ms. Streep, have you always worn dresses yourself?" Faye chuckled, her eyes filled with amusement. Accompanied by her beauty, her laughter was charming and captivating, causing hearts to race. Caleb was drawn to her; he could hear angels singing each time she spoke. However, Faye paid no attention to him and simply smiled at Anastasia. "How do you plan to put on such a large gown that requires assistants by yourself?"As soon as those words left Anatasia's lips, she regretted it. Indeed, anyone with common sense knows that wearing such a gown could be difficult. Given the heavily designed custom pieces, it was practically impossible to do it herself, except if the gown had a simple design with a zipper or a bow. For these specially tailored complicated designs, they couldn't be worn easily. If Anastasia insisted on trying it herself, she would practically be admitting that she wanted to damage it. "Here at Light Moon Designs, we are famous for our design, quality, and ser
