In the resting room next door, Carson knocked on the door and came in. He then spoke to Roderick who was sitting on the sofa: Mr. Arnold, Waldo is here.
A hint of worry flashed across Victoria's face. Roderick held her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, his arrival will not help with anything. Grace won't be able to escape this time."
"Waldo isn't the type of person to be kind and benevolent, his ambition forbids others to hold him back. If my guess is right, he didn't come here to save Grace this time, but to discuss a divorce with her."
"Really?" Victoria didn't really understand what kind of person Waldo was.
Roderick answered her with complete certainty, "Once Grace is convicted, he will definitely sue for divorce."
Roderick's guess was not wrong. The reason why Waldo came here today was not to help Grace, but to kick her when she was in trouble.
Waldo was definitely one of the scumbags, at this moment, his new wife was still in her c
In a black car headed towards the Arnold Group, Victoria snuggled quietly in Roderick's embrace, a trace of tiredness appearing on her face. Roderick spoke in a low voice, "Go rest in my office.""Alright!" Victoria replied. No objections.The car drove from the underground car park all the way to Roderick's personal parking space. Roderick took the initiative to get off the car, walked to the other side, and personally opened the car door for Victoria, pulling her out.Roderick walked into the elevator and caressed the messy hair by her ears, "I will prepare the purchase contract as soon as possible, and let the shareholders in the Marquez Group sign it. You don't have to be so tired."Victoria took a deep breath and shook her head, "I'm not tired. It's probably because I didn't sleep well last night."She had indeed not slept well last night, and had thought about it every day, and had thought about it every single time. She had always been think
Because Waldo was abnormal, she suffered a lot. Amidst Kaylin's anger, she suddenly wanted to let others see Waldo's abnormal side. Trembling, she placed his phone on the table beside and opened the recording method.In the past, no matter how much she suffered, she would only make her mother show her face. But now, the only thing that made her suffer this kind of treatment was that her mother was unkind when she met people, allowing her to get close to a pervert like Waldo, and let her suffer inhuman treatment.Waldo took a bath, bringing a cup of red wine down from the second floor, he was in a good mood and asked Kaylin who was on the sofa, "Kaylin, do you want a cup?""You're not a human, you're a beast." Kaylin scolded."You are already my woman, what else do you have to scold? Why don't you stay by my side from now on! I'll give you good food and shelter."Waldo asked disapprovingly."What did you do to me just now?" Kaylin sobbed, "You
Outside the window, the year was approaching. A cold rain was falling on the window and the sky covered the distance.Before her father fainted, the only ones present were Valentine and Grace. Now, after such a long time had passed, would the police still be able to obtain evidence regarding her father's death?Could they still pin this crime on Grace? Even though Grace had a life in her hands, which was already not far from her death, she would never forget how her father had died. Before her father had died, she had pointed that furious and trembling finger at Grace, as if there was a strong hatred in his eyes, What had Grace done?Behind her, a pair of warm arms wrapped around her waist. Victoria comfortably closed her eyes and snuggled against his chest, feeling the familiar aura. Only in his embrace could she put aside all her thoughts and immerse herself in his warmth."Soon, the truth will be revealed about your father's death." During this past mo
Kaylin flashed a hint of resentment, and she coldly replied, "No, it has nothing to do with her.Austin frowned slightly, "You don't have the qualifications to hate her, and she doesn't have anywhere to let you down.Based on Kaylin's temper from before, she would definitely be mad with anger now, but now, she laughed at herself, "Right, you all say it like that, Victoria is definitely extremely pleased with herself now, she has finally toppled my mother, but what is she leaning on? Isn't it all just relying on a man?"After saying that, Kaylin looked at Austin, "Are you and Roderick business enemies?""In the business world, they are either partners or enemies." Austin replied indifferently.Kaylin couldn't help but stammer out, "But the Lawson Group has always been subordinate to the Arnold Group in every aspect."Austin's expression changed slightly. He really did not like people comparing them this way, because he did not have a good imp
"Ms. Marquez, Mr. Arnold, you've come. Please follow me." A middle—aged policeman came to meet them."How is she feeling now?" Victoria asked."Ms. Marquez, when you go in and fight with her, we will give her handcuffs. Furthermore, we will also send two police officers to the scene.”"We have to keep her safe." Roderick cautiously added."Yes, we will definitely focus on the safety of Ms. Marquez."Since the day Victoria separated from her in the court that day, she had not come to see her."Will her daughter Kaylin come to see her?""She came here two days ago, but every time, she would leave while crying. Her emotions are unstable."Victoria naturally knew that Kaylin had always relied on Grace since she was young, and was used to relying on her. Grace was her world and once Grace fell, she would be at a loss for what to do.As her father's daughter, she only hoped that Kaylin could live a life that had already been lived, and not be affected by her mother's influence again.Her mo
The old policeman on the side nodded, "Alright! I'll give you guys a little more time.”Victoria was so angry that her entire body was trembling, she could be humiliated, but she could not tolerate others calling her son, much less cursing the Arnold family. Her entire body was trembling, and in the blink of an eye, a door was pushed open, and very quickly, an arm embraced her from behind."Oh, Roderick, I guess you have balls, but you won't have a good ending either." Grace scolded everyone when she saw them."Grace, I know why Victoria's father had a heart attack. Because back then, you and Valentine were having a secret affair in his office, and he met you, right?" Roderick loudly questioned.The expression that Grace had steadied earlier, seemed to have been pierced by something in the blink of an eye, and became sinister and distorted. She frantically lowered her head, as if she found it difficult to look straight at the two people staring at her.Victoria's breathing also stoppe
"Mom, what should I do?" Kaylin cried, but she gritted her teeth as she thought to send Waldo, the bastard, to jail. This was the only thing she wanted to do.Moreover, she was feeling quite happy. Helping Austin would be equivalent to helping her fight Roderick in the business world in the future. At that time, Roderick would be pressured.Roderick held onto his umbrella, and Victoria placed two bouquets of white chrysanthemums in front of her father and mother's tombs. She silently gazed at their pictures, and at this moment, it was as if she could see her parents loving each other from the depths of the sea."Dad, mom, I hope you guys will be safe underground. Don't worry about me anymore, I will live a good life." Victoria said to the cold tombstone.A gust of cold wind blew over from the side of the mountain. Roderick was worried that she would catch a cold, so he said gently, "Let's go back first."Victoria nodded and sat in the car. She sneezed a few times, caught off guard, an
After eating the medicine, the doctor and the nurse left. Victoria's body temperature dropped to 37 by 8, if she continued to have a relapse during the night, she would take another antipyretic pill four hours later. If she couldn't do it tomorrow, she would go to the hospital.Victoria also experienced her sickness and her entire body felt weak. A small bag was swollen where she had been injected with the needle. After taking a shower, Victoria went to lie on the bed and gave her some hot water to apply on her arms.Victoria felt warmth, and a hint of emotion flashed past her eyes. This man was too awesome, so good, it made her have the urge to never leave him for the rest of her life, the next life.Roderick looked up and saw her staring at him blankly. He smiled: "What's wrong?""Let's get married!" Victoria suddenly said.Roderick's heartstrings were suddenly pulled, and the light in his eyes instantly became exceptionally bright. Even his breathing became a little ragged as he re
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
