Yves picked up the will. He went over it first, then cleared his throat, and started to read the information of the person who had the will. It was precisely Desmond's information. Hearing Yves read out her father's identity in a calm voice.The tip of Victoria's nose twitched, and she forced herself to continue listening carefully to what Yves was about to say."In order to prevent my family from property disputes after my death, when I am clear—minded and full capacity, according to our country's inheritance law and property law, I hereby leave the will."After reading up to here, Yves looked at Grace, Victoria and Kaylin. Then, he continued, "I own the Marquez Group, which is located in the Building 208, the middle section of Sunset Road." Following that, Yves carefully read out the company's business number and production certificate number, following that, he said, "This company should belong to me according to the law, and after my death, pass all of its authority to my wife, Gr
Sitting in Roderick's car, Victoria still couldn't help but cry. She bit her lips, her heart filled with anger and grief.Roderick reached out and wiped away the tears on her eyes, then said in a low voice, "Victoria, don't cry, even if the Marquez Group is truly taken over by Grace, don't worry, I will snatch it back and return it to you!"Roderick's voice was firm and forceful, as if he had made a promise.Victoria stared at him with her teary eyes, yet, she didn't know what to say."Right now, you only need to do one thing, and that is to be with me. From now on, I'll pamper you, protect you, and take care of you!" Roderick's voice was filled with caution and probing.After all he didn't dare guarantee that Victoria would definitely want to rely on him.Victoria was indeed unable to speak, she was moved by his words just now. She had never thought that in order to take back what was hers, she would be with him."I'll give you some time to think about it. But you need to know, even
"Mr. Arnold, I'm sorry, this is indeed the will that was hard to overthrow. Miss Marquez can only accept this loss."Roderick sent the lawyer away and when he returned, he saw that Victoria was not in the meeting room. He was shocked and hurriedly searched the second floor, but he was unable to find her. Then, he quickly ran up to the third floor and did not see her. In the end, he went straight to the top floor.He saw Victoria standing in front of the railings with a delicate figure, as though she was about to be blown away by the wind. At the same time, thinking of the despair in her heart, he felt a layer of fear.He let out a small breath and almost dashed to her back. He immediately reached out his arm and tightly pulled her into his embrace. With a low breath, he warned, "Victoria, don't do anything stupid."Victoria did not want to commit suicide easily, she only felt that the room was too stuffy, she wanted to go up to blow on the wind, but at that moment, she felt that the h
"I'll sign the will tomorrow." Victoria could not give up on those properties either, otherwise, ten days later, it would be a sign of giving up, she would not let Grace succeed."Okay! I'll go with you.""No need, I can do this myself. I've been troubling you for the past few days.""It's better if you trouble me. If you don't trouble me, then I will feel annoyed." After Roderick finished speaking, he held her shoulders and said, "I am most willing to be troubled by you."These days, it was rare for Victoria to have a smiling face, at this moment, she was truly amused by this man. Although her smile was a little ugly, at least she smiled.That night.A jewelry exhibition was held in a hotel at the center of the city. Grace was naturally dressed up to attend, and at the same time, her company released a few new products, wanting to display the company's power today.Grace's clothes were quite beautiful, and she paid a lot attention to maintenance, she would usually do some micro shapi
Grace proudly picked up the phone on the desk and called Victoria.Victoria and Betty were meeting up at the teahouse and talking about the recent things, when she saw the number on the phone, her heart immediately tightened. It was her father's office number.But very quickly, her expression became cold. Her father was no longer around and the one sitting in that seat was Grace."Hello!" She picked it up coldly."Victoria, when are you going back to the Marquez's residence to pack your things? You need to know that that is no longer your home. You are allowed to come here within three days to clean up, otherwise, I will immediately get a servant to throw out all your things.""Grace, don't be too complacent," Victoria gritted her teeth and cursed."So what if I'm complacent? What can you do with me? Right now, you are not as powerful as before, so what else can you do?"Victoria gritted her teeth and endured, then said to her, "I will go and pack my things today.""Alright, you'd bet
Roderick and Bryson naturally walked to the side of the table. Roderick observed Victoria's expression, which had calmed down a lot, and he sat down on a chair beside her.Roderick noticed Betty on the other side. She was holding the menu up high with her face buried in it, as if she was looking at the menu. However, anyone with a discerning eye would be able to see that she was hiding from someone.Other than Bryson who was beside him, there was no one else.Bryson snorted, "What's wrong? You don't have the face to meet others?"After saying that, he pulled out a chair and sat beside her. With his slender fingers, he pulled the menu away from her."Hello? Can you not be so rude?" Betty immediately glared at him with a pair of angry eyes.Victoria and Roderick who were looking at each other secretly. It seemed that this couple had become enemies tonight.Bryson looked at her angry face with his deep eyes and shook his head, as if he was helpless against her little temper.With a gestu
Bryson bit his lips and said, "That being the case, then I will not say anything for now.""I don't really want to know either." Betty's face also turned ugly.Bryson saw that her little temper had started to play around, and he couldn't help but laugh, "What I just said is still true, I can immediately give you whatever kind of video resources you want."Of course Betty want to! However, she wasn't the kind of person who risked everything to get the upper hand. It was just that she liked to perform, and only accepted the scripts that were suitable for her, so she could actually make a better living in the entertainment industry and earn more money. However, she had always been fond of her feathers and hadn't accepted a script that wasn't suitable for her.Betty didn't want to owe him anything, "No need, I want to rest now, I don't want to take part in the play."Bryson thought back to last night when she said that there was someone she liked, he immediately retracted his gaze and bec
That night, Bryson sent Betty back home. Victoria and Roderick went back after driving around. Victoria was really tired, she slept on the seat of the carriage, and when they returned to the villa, Roderick was the one who took her upstairs. Victoria slept all the way to the second day, and Roderick did not disturb her any further.Now, even if Victoria really had to agree to be with him, he would instead treat this relationship even more seriously. He could also endure the loneliness at night because he knew that this woman would become his person sooner or later.He wasn't in a hurry.Unlike before, when he thought that she didn't belong to him, he was anxious to use some actions to prove that she had to be his.The Marquez Group now completely belonged to Grace, but Grace was still worried about one thing, that was the person who murdered Desmond together with her, her old lover, Valentine. In the blink of an eye, she had fallen in love with Waldo, so of course she had to abandon V
Early in the morning, Amelie opened her eyes. She thought that she was at home, her hands habitually wrapped around her pillow, preparing to sleep for a while more.Then, she suddenly thought of something and quickly opened her eyes. Sure enough, she was in Presidential Palace's guest room, covering her forehead.She took her phone and looked at it. She had gotten up early out of habit, and it was only 7: 00 PM.She originally applied for leave, but now that she was in Presidential Palace, she felt awkward.This Presidential Palace was not like a hotel on the main streets where one could call a taxi and go home the moment they stepped out of the door. Here, without Chaim's decision, she could not leave.Amelie got off the bed and changed into a set of clothes. Since she was here, she could not wear her private clothes.Amelie thought that she should just go to work! If Chaim wanted her to work here.Inside the training room, Chaim's f
It was the first time that she had enjoyed being accompanied by the Mr. Leveson for treatment. She did not have a shred of vanity in her heart, on the contrary, the better Chaim treated her, the more uneasy she became."It's a bit late. Why don't you tell your family that you won't be going back tonight?" Chaim suddenly said.Amelie was shocked. If she didn't go back, then where did she live?"Come to my place." Chaim stared at her, and directly spoke out.Amelie took a light breath, she hurriedly lowered her head to look at her watch, which showed that it was already 9: 30, she said frantically, "It's still early, send me back!"Chaim frowned, "Why do you have to go back?""I... Didn't I apply for leave? I still want to go home.” Amelie found an excuse.However, Chaim felt that this excuse was extremely reluctant. He felt that this woman probably hadn't even entered the state of mind to interact with him, and still avoided his
Chaim also raised his wrist to look at the opportunity, "Accompany me for a while longer."Amelie nodded her head silently, holding her ten fingers together, her sexy chin on her hand. His deep gaze sized her up, as if the one sitting opposite of him was not Amelie, but a painting that made him enchanted.Amelie could not help but feel fear and trepidation from his gaze. She blinked a few times in panic, and under his scorching gaze, her entire body seemed to be burning.Amelie's long eyelashes fluttered, her eyes flickered erratically, somewhat flustered and helpless."Don't look at me." Amelie could only plead. This man probably didn't know how powerful his gaze was.Chaim revealed a gentle smile, "How come we've never met each other before? I wish I had met you earlier.”Amelie thought about it and said, "I have seen you before, but it was a long distance.""Oh!" Chaim asked interestingly, "Then you really should have appeare
He glanced at the phone on the table. If he took a closer look, wasn't that her phone?Chaim's gaze was always on the phone's screen, the words that occasionally floated up were all Lukas's attack on the information.Amelie heard two consecutive messages, and her heart immediately tensed up, she quickly picked up the phone, unlocked the lock, and opened the message. There were at least 10 messages, and even if the number was not displayed, looking at the content of the messages, Amelie knew, it was from Lukas."A blind date?" Suddenly, a man's voice without any emotion asked.Amelie's hand that was holding the phone trembled slightly, her heart strings also tensed up. She switched the phone to mute mode and put it back inside her bag.She felt a sharp gaze on her head, causing her to unconsciously feel nervous and uneasy. She bit her lips and raised her head to meet the man's eyes. She nodded, "Yes, we've met before."Chaim's face instantly
Amelie struggled to think about it for a good while before she finally said, "Alright, I'll come out."The man at the other end smiled in satisfaction. "Alright, my people will pick you up at your door at 6 o'clock on time."Amelie bit her lips and answered, "Okay.""See you later." Chaim ended his speech and hung up.Amelie held onto the phone, completely dumbfounded. In her mind, there was only Chaim's low laughter, as if a kind of alluring melody, was lingering in her mind.In the kitchen, Letitia was just about to eat her food when she quickly said, "Mom, I'm not eating at home tonight. If you're going to eat, don't serve my meal."Letitia could not help but ask curiously, "Who are you with?""That's right ... He's just a classmate; it's been a long time since we've been in contact." Amelie panicked.After Letitia heard this, she also felt that it was not bad. This daughter of hers should contact more people from the outsid
Amelie walked towards this matchmaking pair. When she sat down, she felt that the man in front of her had his eyes closely sizing her up, revealing a strong interest. Amelie wasn't really interested in him, but she maintained a polite performance.The name of the matchmaking pair was Lukas Fleury, a very popular name."Amelie, you look really young. It's obvious that we're only one year apart from each other ..." Lukas looked at her in surprise.Amelie almost spat out the tea she was drinking. Luckily, she maintained her grace, a difference of one year old? How is this possible?Lukas could feel that she was shocked, and immediately said calmly, "Seriously, I did not lie to you. I am 29 years old this year, and did not report my age, do you want to see my ID card?"Amelie forced herself not to laugh, and shook her head, "No need, I believe in you.""Amelie, our work is very similar in nature. We are all engaged in brain work, and I believe w
Amelie's words caused Valery to sigh, "You are a clever person. I am very at ease with you, as I am confident in my son as well. If he was someone who could be bewitched so easily, he would not have his current achievements."From the lady's words, Amelie heard her understanding of her son, as well as her confidence and pride.Indeed, she should be proud to have a son like Chaim.Valery pointed to the teacup on the table, "Amelie, drink a cup of tea!"Amelie was truly thirsty now. She picked up her teacup, drank a few mouthfuls of tea and put the cup down.Valery saw that she had finished her tea, and then continued to speak, "Amelie, I have come to find you, hoping that you will leave my son. Even if you fell in love with each other, could you please leave him?”Amelie's clear eyes, at this moment, were inexplicably tinged with a hint of bitterness. She pursed her lips and nodded.For no reason at all, she had to do it because that m
Amelie ran back home at 8: 30 AM. Letitia had already prepared breakfast for her.In the afternoon, Amelie was at home accompanying her mother and chatting when the doorbell suddenly rang. Amelie got up and opened the door.A middle—aged man wearing a suit stood at the door, smiling at her as he asked, "Excuse me, are you Amelie?""Yes, may I know what you need?" Amelie was sensitive enough to know that this man's identity was someone from the political world."I was entrusted by someone to go to a place and meet someone." The man was very polite.Amelie was shocked, she secretly thought, this person, must not be an ordinary person!"Excuse me, who would like to see me?" Amelie could not help but ask."It's the Mr. Leveson's mother." The man replied to her very calmly.Amelie's head exploded, this was truly shocking to her, why was it that the person who saw her, was Chaim's mother?Had he introduced himself to his
Amelie had received a call from Devan in the afternoon, and over the phone, Devan directly told her that he would give her another week of vacation time. By the side of the phone, Amelie was naturally very surprised, why did the three days of vacation extend for her?However, Amelie didn't ask further. She pretended to be extremely happy and agreed.After hanging up, the happiness on Amelie's face turned into deep thought. Whether it was decided by Devan or not, Devan was not her direct superior.Why did he suddenly give her more vacation time? Amelie only thought about it carefully for a while before coming up with a reason.Last time when he was overseas, didn't he say that he would meet the granddaughter of that general when he returned? He would probably go on a blind date in the next two days! So, he gave her leave to miss the time he wanted to see the girl.That's probably the only reason!Amelie's chest suddenly felt as if something w
