The Jones family slumped to the floor. Due to the tense emotions, Harry's eyes were completely bloodshot.
"Mr. Jones, do you have anything else?" The girl on the phone asked gently, the emphasized smile in her tone seeming to mock his heartlessness.
Clutching the phone tightly, anger filled Harry's chest, veins popping on his face.
"Mr. Jones, do you have anything else?" The girl on the phone asked again.
Harry snapped back to reality, the next moment, loudly spat out, "DT Investment, damn you!"
Harry couldn't imagine how lively their home would become once the village redevelopment succeeded.
This new plan was clearly targeting their family, and if successful, they would be in a precarious situation.
With things reaching this point, he had no choice but to find other ways.
"Harry, what about approaching the Alter Group?" Grandpa Jones panicked, thought of Bob Alter after losing their composure. "Previously, if it wasn't for hi
"After you start working, you just need to sit there until it's time to leave. Occasionally, to deal with inspections, you may need to pretend, but these are minor things, happening only a few times in a few months."Kara explained it thoroughly, capturing the interest of Grandpa and Grandma Jones.Doing nothing and receiving so much money every month—what's not to like?Amara, however, held a skeptical attitude toward this matter. She questioned Kara, "How long have you been working there?""Two years," Kara answered sincerely. "Even when I was pregnant and gave birth, they didn't fire me. You see, isn't it good?""What a fantastic company!" Harry's parents clapped their thighs, happily dancing."Kara, quickly go and ask when we start working."Kara nodded. "I'll go back to the company now. Wait for me; I'll have news soon."The Jones family practically half-carried Kara out in front of Amara, who wanted to protest but w
Everything was developing according to the expected arrangements. While Ivy was busy with the clinical trials for her patients, Harry and his family were arranged to join the company mentioned by Kara.The company was named "Happy Commune."Just the name itself suggested a very happy place."Amara, rest assured, I won't marry Harry. I'll only accompany him with the child. If you don't mind, you can treat me as your best friend."Because she didn't care at all who Harry loved, Kara wasn't worried that Amara would be unhappy. She tried to be as humble as possible, hoping that Amara would stay.Because President Alter said, everyone in the Jones family, except for the child, couldn't run away!When Amara heard Kara's words, she was stunned.She looked at the seemingly innocent and foolish woman in disbelief. "Do you know what you're talking about?"In this world, who would willingly share their man with another woman?No, K
"Forbidden Fruit?" Ivy was puzzled. "Why do you say that?"Shawn said, "It's nothing. I'm just concerned about him. At this age, he has never been in a relationship, and it's embarrassing for the Livingston family."Ivy found it amusing and asked him, "Have you ever been in a relationship before?"Shawn was momentarily surprised, "Naturally, I haven't..."Ivy chuckled, thinking, "Boomerang."But since Shawn rarely came to see her, she couldn't bear to criticize him.With the help of Mr. Luke, Shawn and Ivy got into the car and headed towards the Livingston family."Professor Watson praised my professional skills in the email yesterday," Ivy said excitedly.Getting recognition from a professor like him was much more important than being called a rising star.Shawn gazed at Ivy's smiling face with a twinkle in his eyes, and only now did he vaguely feel her unique innocence.In the past, she had been too constrained
The next day, under Andy's hopeful gaze, Dom got into the car heading to City G.Coincidentally, Ivy visited various major hospitals in City G, gathering all the medications Professor Erica had instructed.Ivy shuttled between the major hospitals in City G, finally completing her task before dinner.Getting into Dom's car at the agreed-upon location, she carefully placed the things she gathered in the back compartment. From the corner of her eye, she saw Dom calmly reading through documents. It made her reflect on her preference for hands-on work, like being a doctor.Jobs such as being an entrepreneur or an executive were not her cup of tea."Brother, are you always this tense?" Ivy looked at his strained facial features. "It's not good for your health."Dom glanced at her with the corner of his eye."You've been busy the whole day; you should rest."In other words, she should just be quiet."What a weirdo," Ivy silentl
Thinking that Ivy is really something. She presents one image on the surface but has a completely different set of actions. She told him not to interfere with her affairs, so can't she manage herself and stay out of his business?Oh well, it's just a blind date, right? It's not like he hasn't been on blind dates before. He can just delete her later.So, he took the initiative to show his Line QR code to Krystal. "Hello, I'm Dom."Although Krystal lived in City G, she had heard a lot of gossip from the upper-class society. Among these, she admired Cato Alter the most and detested Dom the most.Unexpectedly, the person she admired introduced her to the person she detested the most.Krystal rolled her eyes, sighing at the uselessness of men."No need to add Line." Krystal, now feeling consecutive blows, was not in the mood. Seeing Dom's impatient expression, she couldn't help but mock, "I'm afraid I'll be deleted by you later."Krystal f
Back in the private room, Shawn found Ivy still enjoying a delicious dinner. With one hand holding her phone and apparently reading medical materials, she seemed carefree.Seeing her seemingly indifferent demeanor, Shawn felt helpless yet found her incredibly adorable."You're back," Ivy said as Shawn approached. She closed her phone, looking at his shirt for a while. Fortunately, the shirt was almost dry, and the man seemed unaffected.Shawn couldn't help but feel a mixture of frustration and adoration. "I'm back," he replied.She opened her phone to show Shawn, "This is the second-phase surgery plan I prepared for you. Take a look. Professor Watson has also reviewed it. He will be accompanying the surgery, so I'm very confident; it'll be fine."Ivy smiled, but deep down, she was somewhat anxious. She prided herself on maintaining confidence and absolute clarity in front of patients, but when the patient was Shawn and her love for him intensified,
These days, Emma unexpectedly felt uneasy, often getting lost in thought halfway through a task, subconsciously seeing images of Harry in her mind.She didn't think it was because she missed him, but rather some kind of connection developed over decades. However, after divorcing, such a connection was truly inauspicious.One afternoon, accompanied by her father for a medical checkup to confirm the surgery date, Emma noticed his daughter's distracted state and said with a smile, "Let's go, the two of us will go shopping.""Dad.""Emma!" Emma was about to refuse on the grounds of not wanting to waste time, but Andy stopped him."Let your dad be carefree and unrestrained, freely enjoying himself. I won't live much longer anyway.""Dad!" Emma, hearing his self-deprecating words, was so angry that she immediately covered his mouth. "What are you saying? The doctors said you're in good health. We also consulted with experts worldwide to develop a
Andy raised his crutch and struck Harry several times."You got one thing right..." Andy sneered, "Being rich is indeed impressive."He raised the crutch again and fiercely hit him a few more times.The shopping mall fell silent, and people gathered around to watch Andy beating Harry while mocking his cries of pain."Why is this old man bullying others?" Some bystanders who had just arrived were puzzled and asked.In the next moment, the onlookers interrupted him, "You know nothing!""This is the patriarch of H Capital, Andy Livingston. Next to him is his recently reunited daughter, Emma Livingston. The guy on the ground is Emma's ex-husband, a scumbag who abused her and her daughter for decades!""He not only abused them but also kept one mistress after another. He even secretly let Emma raise the children of his mistresses. He's a real scumbag!""He deserves this beating! Well-deserved!"In an instant, public anger sur
