Her heavy footsteps were as if a hammer was steadily hitting on one's heart. It was not painful, but one could feel her darkness and sorrow. As soon as Emmeline disappeared into her bedroom, the door of the study was quietly opened. With a cup in his hand, Jara happened to see her door being closed up, Then, he raised his eyebrows. Suddenly, a man was heard laughing at Jara through his earpiece. "Boss, Ma'am has already taken the initiative to come to you in the middle of the night. Why didn't you show some love?" The man was teasing him over the earpiece. Meanwhile, Jara's lips were pressed into a thin line, as the scene two minutes ago appeared in this mind, where Emmeline was in her maroon-colored pajamas, lazily leaning against the door of his study. Then, his eyes darkened, and he said coldly, "It seems like you're pretty free recently. Should I call Sumo here to train with you?" "Ah! No, no!" Immediately, the man took back his words. "Bo
In the living room of the main building. Jara had already changed his clothes and was waiting there. Today, he wore a white casual outfit. Without his usual solemn temperament, he looked bright and handsome as if he had time-traveled back to his college years. Sitting next to him was a man who looked ruffled, leaning on the sofa and eating grapes. "Say, Jara, did you suddenly change your personality? Didn't you say that you will never wait for a woman? Now, which beauty are you waiting for today?" Isaac had arrived since early in the morning, so he had been sitting there for a while. In the meantime, Jara was browsing through the news on his iPad when he gave Isaac a look. His expression was as cold as ice. "If you're impatient, you can leave first." When Isaac heard the response, his expression suddenly changed, and he quickly added. "Hey, don't take it seriously. I'm just joking with you." As he spoke, his body relaxed and
Along with Kayla, Jara got into the Rolls-Royce. On the other hand, Emmeline was standing there for a few seconds before Isaac caught up behind. He was a shrewd and sharp-witted person, so when he saw Jara and Kayla getting into the first car, he couldn't bear to see Emmeline feeling awkward. Immediately, he walked up to her with a smile and said, "Miss Illington, if you don't mind, can I take a car with you?" While Emmeline didn't present any expression on her face, she opened the door of the Lexus and stepped into the car. At the same time, she replied, "Whatever." Again, Isaac was stumped. He felt as if Jara and Emmeline were a couple in a quarrel, and he was sandwiched in the middle, acting as a punching bag. But as he thought of the immense feud between them, he shook his head and didn't bother too much about it. Instead, he walked over to the other side and got into the car. The golf course was not far away from the castle and it w
Being pushed back by the force, Jara failed to hit the ball. Right away, Emmeline took the most advantageous position and prepared to swing when all of a sudden, her club was entangled with Jara's club. At that moment, it was as if her arm was pulled by a huge force, raising in the air, and once again, she lost her chance. Now, Emmeline became a little angry. At this point, the two of them had a good understanding of each other's strengths and weaknesses, so they did not dare to act rashly again. Slightly bending her body, Emmeline glared at Jara who was also in the same posture on alert. She gritted her teeth and said, "You're definitely going to lose today!" Hearing that, Jara sneered, "You're so confident?" "Of course!" As soon as she finished her words, she moved her right arm and suddenly went right under his armpit. Immediately, Jara narrowed his eyes, but before he could react, she had already grasped his club in her hand. Following tha
In the end, he lowered his head embarrassedly and said, "Okay, but as a friend, I still don't want any of you to be injured. Four years ago, I stood by him because of the situation, not because I had any malice against you. Emmeline, I hope you can understand." Upon hearing that, Emmeline didn't say anything. She looked incredibly calm, but in fact, there was a slight fluctuation in the depths of her eyes. Then, she answered in a low voice, "It's all in the past." That was right, it was all in the past! She could ignore those injuries she had suffered; she could forget all the pain she had endured, and she could forgive all those who had betrayed her. But there was only one thing that she could not ignore, forget, nor forgive. It was her subordinates who had died because of her. They knew the relationship between her and Jara, but they were still willing to believe her and the promises she made; they were willing to believe that she would not b
Then, Jara smiled sarcastically and faintly. "Seems like you're quite worried about me." However, Kayla did not see his expression as she lowered her eyes slightly and replied softly, "I like you, so of course, I would be worried about you." For some reason, Jara felt disgusted and annoyed. He didn't bother to look at her again. Instead, he walked forward. Realizing that he had walked over, Kayla froze for a moment. Feeling slightly surprised, she then felt an indescribable joy that rose in her heart as she quickly caught up to them. The group of people returned to the field. Meanwhile, Emmeline had been warming up her wrists and ankles when she said to Isaac, who was not far away, "Mr. Mills, please stand further away later. I'm afraid that if my movement is big, I might hit you accidentally." Looking at the two who were about to start a fight just because of a disagreement, Isaac felt awkward and helpless at the same time. At the end of th
in truth, Emmeline couldn't care less whether she was a woman or not in Kayla's eyes. At this moment, she felt that Jara was not even a man. After so many rounds of fighting, he had clearly lost, but he still refused to admit it. What was the matter? Did it really have to be a do-or-die situation? With the thought in mind, a hint of malevolence appeared in Emmeline's eyes. However, with Isaac around, he was not to let anything happen to them. Hence, immediately, he stopped Emmeline and said, "Well, Jara is just stubborn. Let's not argue with him. You both can solve your dispute later on. If one of you is dead, which side should I take? Emmeline, for the sake of our years of friendship, don't put me in a difficult position. I beg you." Upon hearing that, Jara spat out a mouthful of blood and sneered, "Isaac, why are you begging her? You don't know who's side you are on?" By this time, Isaac's good temper was completely exhausted. He tur
After Isaac and Kayla had a big fight, they left the castle. Whilst Kayla was being angry, she felt wronged and annoyed at the same time. After returning to Tower B from the main building, she locked herself up in her room and never went back. On the other hand, Jara returned to his room and took a bath before continuing with his work. Time went on and it was already time for dinner. Pinching the bridge of his nose, Jara glanced at the time on his wristwatch and realized it was already six o'clock in the evening. Then, he rang the bell and called for Uncle Poick. "Uncle Poick, is she back?" Obviously, Uncle Poick knew who he was referring to was. Slightly lowering his head, he replied softly, "Not yet." She hadn't come back yet? Upon receiving the news, Jara furrowed as an annoyance rose in him. He waved his hand, signaling Uncle Poick to excuse himself while he walked to the window and looked at lights coming alive in t
