After the Chairman and his wife left, the large dining hall, which was hundreds of square meters, was now only occupied by the three of them.Keith pushed Rose away, his gaze dark. "What's wrong with you? Milan isn't attractive enough for you? Are you willing to come back?"Rose suddenly lunged forward, wanting to embrace Keith, but he ruthlessly pushed her away."Keith, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong! I don't want to go to Milan, I don't want to be a model anymore, I want to marry you, I want to have your children..." Rose stared at Keith's face obsessively, speaking incoherently, "Shirley was just a gift I gave you. How could you marry a gift and ignore the person who gave it to you? Keith, I'm back, I'm back by your side, that gift can leave now."Gift? Shirley's eyes widened.What is going on?Shirley's disbelieving gaze instantly turned to Rose.Rose completely disregarded Shirley's gaze and continued pleading with Keith, "Keith, I really love you. Really! You know, Milan
Rose couldn't see Keith's mocking expression and gaze, as she continued speaking to herself, "As long as I don't explain clearly, Shirley will be seen as a shameless woman who seduced her best friend's husband! Do you think the Chairman of the Italian company will continue to cooperate with the Nelson Family Group?""Are you threatening me?" Keith still had his back turned to Rose, but the coldness in his eyes had reached the depths."No, I just love you too much!" Rose slowly walked up from behind and suddenly embraced Keith's waist from behind, greedily smelling his distinct scent.She could never get enough of that scent.This was a real man, the kind of man Rose desired.Only a man like this was worthy of her!"So, this is how you express your love for me?" Keith forcefully pried Rose's fingers apart with his hand and pushed her away, "Unfortunately, I'm not interested!"Rose tried to approach again, but Keith had already moved away with large strides."Tony, did you capture every
The Nelson family mansion was in City T, and they also owned a billion-dollar villa in City A.The butler had received Mr. Keith's phone call early on and was waiting at the villa.As soon as Keith arrived at the villa with Shirley, he handed her over to the butler and changed his clothes before getting in the car and driving away.As Shirley turned around, she only caught a glimpse of Keith's departing figure.Previously, Keith's back never evoked any feelings in her. But at this moment, Shirley felt like there was something different in her heart."Madam, Young Master just went to explain today's events to the Chairman of Italy," the butler thought Shirley wanted to know Keith's whereabouts and explained boldly.Although Tony had already cleared the scene of what happened in the bathroom today, the butler still found out through other channels about the things Young Master had done today that he had never done in his life.Shirley's eyes drooped, and she turned around gently, "Oh, I
By this time, Shirley had snapped out of her daze and was about to escape, but his arms tightened again. With a hint of irritation, Shirley looked up, only to meet a pair of tired eyes."Today, I comforted you by offering my chest. Now it's your turn to lend me your embrace," Keith softly said. "I won't touch you. I just feel lonely and want to hold someone who feels the same way."Shirley could hear the weariness in Keith's voice. He must have faced a lot of frustration in front of the Chairman and his wife, right? He had already been standing by her side at the company for so long, which was exhausting enough. But then he had to rush to apologize to the Chairman...Thinking about this, Shirley couldn't bring herself to push him away.A triumphant smile appeared on Keith's lips as he tightened his arms a little more and said, "Let's sleep! We can eat later."Before she could reply, Shirley heard the rhythmic sound of breathing above her head.Did he fall asleep so quickly? He must be
A voice came from not far away, "Oh, what a coincidence! Mr. Keith, I didn't expect to meet you here!"Shirley heard the voice and gently turned around to see an acquaintance standing in front of her and Keith.Tina's gaze shifted to Shirley and she smiled, saying, "You're here too.""Yes," Shirley smiled and nodded."It took me a lot of effort to come to City A for shopping. I didn't expect to meet you here! But it makes sense, since this is the headquarters of the Nelson Family Group. It's normal to see you here!" Tina said with a smile. "What a coincidence, would you like to have a drink together?"Shirley didn't expect to meet Tina here either, but immediately nodded and smiled. Shirley nodded, and Keith seemed to have no reason to refuse, so he followed along.The three of them quickly found a quiet place. Tina's seductive and enchanting image always attracted attention.Keith, with his handsome appearance and extraordinary temperament, immediately caught countless people's atten
Keith indeed had no intention of going to another room to rest. After washing up, he directly lay down on the bed.Seeing Shirley still stunned, a glimmer of light flashed in Keith's eyes. "Why are you still standing there? Not going to sleep?"Keith lay there, his solid and slender body wrapped in a pure white blanket, irresistibly tempting.Shirley could feel her ears turning red. Late at night... staying with a nude beautiful man..."We came in a hurry, and only one master bedroom has been cleaned up. This is my house, and I have the right to sleep in any room." Keith raised an eyebrow, his narrow and charming eyes glistening, as he softly said to Shirley, "There's no sofa here either. If you don't mind the baby in your belly, and insist on sleeping on the floor, I have no objections!"Sleep on the floor? Hmph, no way!In a huff, Shirley lay down on the other side. That's right, she's pregnant now and can't compromise! She absolutely won't sleep on the floor!Besides, she's pregnan
Upon hearing Shirley's voice, Tina almost lost her mind!Keith asked her to take care of Shirley, and now something had happened to their baby?Oh no, oh no!If something really happened to Shirley's baby, she wouldn't be able to explain it!That middle-aged woman had to stand exactly there, why couldn't she stand anywhere else?!Shirley, what were you thinking? What kind of heroism are you displaying as a pregnant woman?And that driver with out-of-town license plates, I won't forget you!Tina threw away what she was holding and dashed towards Shirley.The Chairman's wife, who was saved by Shirley, finally reacted when she saw Shirley lying on the ground, and she exclaimed in Italian, "I'm sorry... it's you!" Tina looked up at the woman and also spoke in Italian, saying, "Miss, she just saved you! Can you please help call a car to the hospital?""Oh... okay, my car is nearby, it will be here soon!" The Chairman's wife looked at Shirley lying on the ground and was also terrified! She
"The doctor said that the Madam and the baby are both fine. The reckless driver only hit the Madam's leg and did not harm the fetus in her abdomen," Tony succinctly replied, "The one who hit the Madam is a business partner of our subsidiary.""Oh? Which company?" A storm started brewing in Keith's eyes. Someone who nearly injured his woman wants to do business with the Nelson Family Group?"It's Flying Eagle Biotech, a manufacturer that specializes in providing raw materials for facial cream production. They just won the bidding earlier this year, successfully beating the previous year's supplier to obtain this year's supply rights. Flying Eagle Biotech is a subsidiary acquired by the Davis Family Group, and it has assets of around one billion. Their general manager is currently in City A. It's said that he came here to negotiate further cooperation with the Nelson Family Group and to meet Rupert Davis, the CEO of the Davis Family Group," Tony quickly provided all the necessary inform
Keith returned the Moore family, which he had previously acquired, back to them intact. He signed an agreement with Old Mrs. Moore, stating that the Nelson Family Group would annually provide free financial support to all industries under the Moore family and their research institute in Indonesia.At the same time, Keith ramped up collaboration with the Davis Family Group to compensate for the assistance and sacrifices their ancestors had made for the Moore family.Finally, Old Mrs. Moore let go of her prejudices and the so-called ancestral rule, stopped forcing Shirley to marry Rupert, and accepted Keith as her grandson-in-law.Keith, full of vigor, led Shirley back to the room, eager to explain everything to her.But before Keith could speak, Shirley's face suddenly turned pale, and she collapsed against Keith.Keith's words were swallowed up instantly."Shirley, what's wrong?" Keith scooped Shirley up and rushed out. "Doctor, nurse!""Keith, my stomach hurts. It hurts so much," Shi
After stomping out the cigarette butt on the floor, Lillian picked up the cup intending to take a sip, only to find it empty.Anxiously, she put the cup down and paced around the room.This shabby motel was tucked away in a corner of the old town, notorious for its crime and violence.Lillian really didn't want to be here, but she couldn't think of a better option for hiding out.The big hotels required ID registration, and she didn't want to risk being recognized, especially looking as disheveled as she did, with her scruffy appearance.She couldn't even bear to see herself like this, let alone others.This morning, while washing her face, she felt a lump in her throat, a sign that it might protrude again.This discovery made her extremely uneasy.In order to expedite the surgery and achieve the desired effect, she opted for a conservative procedure, leaving part of the Adam's apple intact.In other words, if her testosterone levels rose again, surpassing the estrogen in her body, sh
Shirley saw the flowers Simon had sent her blooming beautifully, and her mind wandered to the scene of Susan meeting Simon.Then, Shirley couldn't help but sigh.These days, Simon had been quite active in this circle, reminding everyone of Mr. Simon's presence.Hopefully, he could recover smoothly from Susan's death blow soon.Lost in thought, Shirley heard the doorbell ring.Naturally, someone went to open it, while Shirley stayed put.Lately, she noticed she was becoming lazier—moving only when necessary.Soon, Janet came over with a box, smiling as she said to Shirley, "This is from the Smith family, probably more flowers from Mr. Simon."These days, Simon had been sending over many flowers from his greenhouse.Thankfully, they had a dedicated gardener to tend to them, and a large enough greenhouse to store them. Otherwise, there wouldn't be enough space for all these flowers.You see, even a random potted flower would cost tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars!These were all S
Well, Lillian would if she could!She felt all numb now!She could only look at Evan with pleading eyes, hoping he would spare her considering she had given him her first time.Sure enough, Evan caught Lillian's plea and immediately said, "Hannah, that's enough. You must be tired from all the hitting, be careful of the baby in your stomach."Hannah stopped immediately as Evan spoke.Shirley and Tina were once again speechless in shock.What a nice way Hannah turned things around!Indeed, Hannah must have been tired; hitting someone was physically exhausting!Hannah pointed at Lillian, accusingly saying, "You heartless creature, I considered you my friend, and you slept with my husband!"Shirley touched her nose; why did that line sound so familiar?Despite Lillian being physically numb, her mouth could still talk. However, the voice sounded oddly off."Hannah, do you think I don't know how you got pregnant?" Lillian's face was swollen from Hannah's hits, and coupled with her hoarse vo
Keith nodded, "You do understand my style and methods. Indeed, anyone who dares to target the Nelson family won't survive more than three days. I spared your life for a reason. You haven't disappointed me; you've smoothly resolved the trouble I wanted to get rid of."Lillian was trembling even more violently, "You...you...""Lillian, you've got some nerve! You actually wanted to lay a finger on the Nelson family's influence in Europe. Should I praise your bravery, or mock your stupidity?" Keith sighed lightly, "You thought getting enough shares would let you meddle in Europe? That's incredibly amusing!"Lillian glared fiercely at Keith, her voice becoming even hoarser, lacking the sweetness and clarity it once had. Instead, it sounded like a cracked drum, extremely grating."If you know everything, then do what you will with me!" Lillian gritted her teeth.Despite her words, her eyes kept drifting towards the door, as if waiting for something.Suddenly, Keith chuckled softly."Why wou
Lillian heard Monica's words and burst out laughing without reservation!"I'm talking nonsense? Monica, can you swear you haven't fallen for Simon?" A strange flush suddenly rose on Lillian's face, letting the cold wind blow against her, but she felt nothing, turning to look at Monica like this. "Yeah, with this scandal, how could you possibly keep it under wraps? You love Simon so much, you went as far as warning Susan, stirring up trouble with Shirley. But no matter how you cover it up, do you think everyone is a fool?"Monica recoiled in fear, frantically trying to explain, "It's just sibling affection...""Enough, save those lies to deceive yourself, stop pretending in front of me." Lillian continued pressing on: "But, I wonder, how would Simon feel if he knew his adoring little sister, who's been in love with him for over a decade, what would be his state of mind?"Monica finally panicked, reaching out to cover Lillian's mouth, but Lillian slapped Monica's hand away, looking at M
Lillian's words caused the expressions of those around her to subtly change towards Albert.Many people present knew of Albert's background.Despite various disdain towards Mr. Albert, he was still connected to the Nelson family, an entity not to be crossed.Even if Lillian did not like Albert, she dared not openly confront him.Evan, grinning, approached Shirley, "Oh oh, your second brother was hit, as his sister-in-law, are you really going to remain indifferent?""Let's put aside the question of whether I am his sister-in-law, as the host of today's banquet, are you truly going to stay indifferent in the face of such a drama?" Shirley countered Evan.As Evan hesitated about whether to help, a commotion erupted at the entrance.Shirley followed the crowd's gaze. At the villa's entrance, a Rolls-Royce spun elegantly and parked perfectly.A group of well-trained bodyguards formed two rows, the car door opened, and an impeccably dressed figure leisurely got out.Shirley was speechless
Following Evan's gaze, Shirley turned around and saw Lillian in a white fur coat, wearing a red form-fitting dress underneath.Lillian walked in with a man in his forties on her arm."Lillian changes her man every time she appears," Tina remarked, crossing her arms. "Evan, did you invite her?"Hearing Tina's disdainful tone, Evan quickly replied, "Come on, why would I invite her? She's just a minor character, and doesn't have the qualifications. But the man next to her might be a potential investor tonight. Shirley, do you remember him?"Shirley looked puzzled at Evan, "Why should I remember him?"Evan smirked mischievously, "Because he's Director Alice's ex-husband!""Pfft..." Shirley and Tina both sprayed out the juice in their mouths!Shirley looked incredulous, "No way? Is Director Alice coming tonight as well?"Evan laughed more maliciously, "Yep, Director Alice will be here too! I wonder what it would be like for her to see her ex-husband attending this party with her actresses.
Mr. Flores suddenly looked up at the person handing him the pen. When he saw the face clearly, his fingers trembled, almost throwing the pen away!This was...one of Keith's assistants.Keith had many assistants—some were public, like Tony and Jim. Of course, there were also some who worked discreetly, like the current assistant in front of him.As a member of the board of directors, Mr. Flores had seen this assistant a few times.This assistant was a formidable figure with blood on his hands. Did his presence mean that Keith already knew everything?Mr. Flores felt like a fish in hot oil, suffering repeatedly.Mr. Flores had an unprecedented sense of regret.He had always thought he was watertight, but little did he know that Keith had long grasped his weaknesses.The assistant gestured for Mr. Flores to look at the document in his hands.His gaze fell, and when he understood the contents, his eyes became increasingly sinister!The assignee of this document was not Lillian, but Keith!
