Alexia looked at Cecelia. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. All she could do is to wait and listen to what she was planning to do by coming to her, "Miss Desmond, what can I do for you?""Can you give me five minutes?"Cecelia walked out of the elevator and pointed to the corridor behind Alexia, indicating that they could go over to talk.Alexia shrugged slightly and turned to the end of the corridor."Alexia, I'm very sorry about what happened with my sister yesterday. I don't know why she lied. This entire thing has been completely blown out of proportion. You know, Master Franks was so angry that he had to be hospitalized."She glanced over to Alexia and then stopped talking.She looked at her and smiled slightly. She wanted to hide her emotions as best as she could, "So what are you trying to say?"Cecelia couldn't determine Alexia's reaction. She knew that the only way to deal with this matter was for Alexia to voluntarily delete her post."Rachael was lying. I won't deny
Alexia acted too swiftly. Cecelia wasn't expecting her to do that at all. Her expression fell as soon as she stared at her phone being snatched away. A contemptuous expression appears on her face and she shouts, while reaching out for the phone, "Give that back!"She smiled and pressed the button on Cecelia's phone. The screen lit up. It was a recording.Cecelia glanced at her mobile phone and her face turned pale. When she realised that she had been caught, she tried to frame an excuse, "I must have accidentally pressed it."Alexia gave her a sidelong glance. She sneered and asked her, "Do you think I'll believe you?"She was not a fool.However, ....She raised an eyebrow and threw the phone back to her. Then with kneaded eyebrows and a veiny neck said to her, "Cecelia, I'm warning you not to mess with me. My temper is not something you'll be able to withstand."After that, Alexia turned around and left.As for what Cecelia wanted to do with that recording, it didn't matter anymore.
Soon, Joanna came up with Bismarck."Miss Alexia."Bismarck had been working for Master Franks for more than 20 years, and he even sounded a little arrogant like Master Franks. She felt like the man in front of her was looking down on her but she tried to give him the necessary respect.She snorted, "I'm flattered by your visit, Mr. Bismarck."Master Franks used to look down on Alexia, and Bismarck followed suit. Although Alexia's identity had been revealed, and she was no longer the former Alexia, they were used to looking down on her. They didn't treat her any better than before.She had always respected Bismarck, who was Master Frank's secretary. It was the first time that Alexia had spoken to him in such a manner.Bismarck was a little dissatisfied, but when he thought of Master Frank's order, he endured it. His eyes looked her straight in her and he said to her in a commanding voice, "Miss Alexia, Master Franks wants to see you. Please come with me."She looked at him, and the sm
Master Franks was admitted into the hospital a night ago and had just returned home at 8 in the morning. On the way back, the more he thought about it, the stranger he felt.Alexia was the one who caused the incident. After thinking about it, he didn't think there was any substantial benefit for Alexia.After all, he had lived for more than 80 years. He could see through the trick of the Desmond’s sisters as long as he thought about it carefully.Rachael and Cecelia had put on many acts. He had already adopted Cecelia as an act of gratefulness as saving someone’s life in place of yours is an act of bravery. But it seemed to him that, she did that for what she could gain but not because she was kind and not out of love.But if Rachael wanted to marry into the Franks family, Master Franks would never agree. His family didn’t belong to the Desmond’s for them to go and return to however way they wanted. They weren’t of the same class and mingling with the lower class wasn’t something that
Edward already knew why his grandfather was looking for him. He could only guess one thing, but could not figure out the other. He arrived at the mansion with the usual temperament, all the servants watched him enter the office with a straight expression. But they were aware that he never comes out with a same face."Do you mean to let me and Alexia get married again?" Edward asked in a deep voice, his eyes throwing daggers at the Old man.Master Franks glared at him. His eyes knead and he asked in an unbelieving voice, "What? Do you want to marry Desmond Rachael?"Edward didn't want to marry Rachael, but he had no intentions of getting back together with Alexia.He looked away from him and looked at the door before he answered, "Who I am marrying is a different matter. But I will never get back together with Alexia."Upon hearing his words, Master Bo was upset. "What do you mean you will never? Alexia likes you. Now that so many things have happened, isn't it because she's mad at you
The arrival of Bismarck was just an episode for Alexia. She knew that it wasn’t going to end there but she also didn’t have the heart to put those things in thought.Alexia didn't take Bismarck's words to heart. After all, she had been the daughter-in-law of the Franks family for four years. Alexia could guess what Master Franks was thinking.Compared to Master Frank's thoughts, Alexia cared more about the plan for the event on the next day.Alexia rejected the plan proposed in the meeting, and Aaron didn't dare to go against her like before.She was the daughter of the Ferrero family. The entire Excellent Entertainment. Group belonged to the Ferrero family. Mr. Ferrero only had one daughter, making her the future owner of the company. Her brother had no time to think about those companies, he owned too much.Who would dare to ignore Alexia's words?As soon as the plan was rejected, the planning department had to redo it. Alexia looked through a few documents. She wanted to look throu
Edward was not completely lying to Master Franks about his lunch party.However, he was going to show up and leave everything to Robert before exiting the private room.Roses Appeal was designed to have great privacy. The private room was separated. Outside the private rooms were brick paths, and flowers were blooming beautifully as it was springtime.It was indeed a beautiful scene, but Edward didn't have the heart to appreciate it. He had too much on his mind to think about anything else.There was a small pavilion on the side of the corridor, which was a smoking area. Edward took a look at it, stopped for a moment, and walked over.The pavilion was a little remote. After leaving the main corridor in the yard, even the employees wouldn't notice the people at the pavilion.After all, the private rooms on this floor were not affordable for ordinary people. And even if one had the money, they needed the connections to book these rooms.The two waitresses who had served the dishes hid a
In the private room. Alexia looked at the porridge and side dishes in front of her. She had to admit that Damon was very considerate.She had not completely recovered from the cold and didn't have much of an appetite. She could eat a little, but she didn't feel like it.Along the way, Damon didn't ask her what she wanted to eat. Instead, he took her directly to Roses Appeal. It was a place that calmed the sick with its fragrances from the roses smell, one would feel good to eat no matter their appetite. He asked for this private room, which even the rich could not get. The dishes he ordered were mostly light. He took care of her, who was still sick.Alexia suddenly understood why none of Damon's rumoured girlfriends had spoken ill of him. People like him were sincere when pursuing a woman.Damon saw that eyes were still and she was out of it and so, he inquired, "What are you thinking about?"Damon took the empty bowl in front of her and gave her another bowl of porridge.Alexia looke
Not only the guests, even Damon and Edward were shocked. The other man went to Veronica and slid the wedding ring on her hand, she looked at the host and took the male wedding ring and slid it on his as well.Alexia didn't expect that Damon would come on stage. Days prior, she had told him not to act impulsively on the wedding day, but she didn't expect that Damon would still rush up.This was between her and the Franks family. Alexia didn't want to get Damon involved.Seeing him on the stage, Alexia called out to him in the chaos. "Damon."Her voice wasn't loud. The wedding that day was grand, but Alexia was standing under the stage. Before she even said a word, Damon had already seen her.Alexia was wearing a plain long dress that day. Her hair was tied up and she wore a pair of sunglasses.It was no wonder that no one noticed that Alexia was under the stage. Dressed like this, most of the guests thought that she was some celebrity.Damon quickly came to his senses. He turned around
The groom got ready much faster than the bride. After Edward finished his makeup, he went out to welcome the guests with Master Franks.When the guests saw Edward, although his expression was still as cold as ice, when they looked at him, it was obvious that he was in a good mood this day.At half past six, the wedding began as scheduled.As the groom, Edward was already backstage.After the host gave the opening speech, Edward was invited to the stage to share his love story.But everyone knew that Mr. Bo had always been a quiet and indifferent person. At first, the host was a little worried that Edward wouldn't answer at all.It turned out that he had worried for nothing.Although Edward's answer was not very exciting, it was still an answer."Mr. Frank, before I welcome the bride, I want to ask you a few questions first. I believe that everyone here is as curious as I am."As we all know, you and the bride have been married once. What exactly is the purpose of your marriage this ti
......Edward really didn't want to care about this wedding, because he clearly knew that this wedding was just for show.Be it him or Alexia, they were all tools for Master Franks to boost his reputation in exchange for benefits.It just so happened that he liked Alexia and wanted to remarry him, so he didn't say much.However, Master Franks' words changed Edward's mind.Did Alexia really go back to her parents in person the previous day just to persuade Mr. Ferrero to agree to the wedding?He thought of what happened that night. She was cold towards him as ever, as if she didn't want to get married to him at all.Edward had been feeling conflicted over the past few days. He even wanted to ask Alexia to call off the wedding.However, every time he felt the urge to do so, he couldn't help but look at Alexia's old messages telling him how much she loved him.Edward felt as if he had been trapped in a ball played on the field. He couldn't escape, nor did he know how.But now, he no long
He was taken aback by Alexia's question. Then he smiled and said, "Why? Do you think you've seen me before?""When I was 15, I passed out in an alley filled with gangsters from other universities. Before I lost consciousness, I faintly felt that a boy picked me up and sent me to the hospital."At this point, Alexia paused for a moment. "After I woke up, I only saw my parents beside my bed. But the uniform that the boy covered me with when he sent me to the hospital was still on me. There was a school tag inside, which said 'Edward'. I thought that the person who saved me was Edward. Eventually, I fell in love with him.""I've always thought that Edward was actually a gentle person. He's just cold on the outside but soft on the inside. But ever since that incident, I've never seen his gentle side again.""In the past few months, being with you has given me a feeling that I mistook the boy for someone else. You saved me, didn't you?"She didn't fall in love with Edward at first sight. S
Damon handed a suitcase to me and said. I lowered her head and looked at it. I was a little confused. And so, I asked, "What's this?""It's a money gift."Then, he placed the suitcase in my hands.Damon then loosened his grip. I felt the weight, so I subconsciously held the suitcase tightly and said, "What money gift?''Why are you giving me this for no reason at all?"Halfway through the sentence, I came to her senses. My heart beat faster as I asked, "Did Edward tell you?"There was no smile on his face and only darkness in his eyes. "Hmm."He answered and turned to leave.He walked very slowly, as if he was struggling with every step, but also as if he was waiting for something.I watched and felt that my eyes were burning. Before I could react, I had already opened my mouth. I called out to him subconsciously, "Damon."Hearing my voice, the man who had already walked to the corner stopped.For the first time, he didn't look back at me. He just turned his back to me and said, "If y
We were about to go home when we encountered three thugs. We walked to the car and saw them smoking by it. Damon wanted to move it and so, he approached them and said to themDo you mind moving from the car?But then it seemed that they had met bad company, one of them stepped forward and said to him,Dare to make us leave? I want to lean on your car for a moment. Dare you make me angry and you will go home with your balls in your hands.I realized that Damon was getting irritated and he wasn’t the only one. And so, I moved closer to him and said to him,Let’s not cause any commotion and leave from here.The other two looked at me and whistled and then said,You’ve gotten the hottest harlot for the night, do you mind borrowing her to us? We will…Before he could finish his words, they heard a bone crack and they saw Damon’s fist on the speaker’s cheek.And that was how it all began, three to one, I just couldn’t stand by and so, I joined him.Thirty minutes later, the police arrived a
I was in my office after returning from the dinner when Joanna presented a file to me. She said it concerned Charlotte who I thought I was done with. I wondered what that information was and so I looked through it. When I was done, I chuckled and said, "No wonder."No wonder Joanna couldn't find out anything about Charlotte connected to the Franks. It turned out that Edward had sent someone to clean up her mess.In the past few months, Edward's men had been watching Joanna's men.However, a few days ago, I had told Joanna not to look into Charlotte anymore. Edward's men probably thought that they finally stopped investigating. They didn't expect that Joanna would come back and find out about them.In my opinion, no matter how bad Edward was, he would never do such a shameless thing.However, it turned out that I didn't really know him.I had been hesitating about the wedding, but after finding out about this, I was clear about her decision.It was all thanks to Joanna that I found out
I made sure to take my time in the office, in fact I wanted to finish the day’s work before seeing him. But I thought about it that he might be feeling sore over for sitting at one place for two hours. My worry wasn’t on that one, he could fake collapsing and I didn’t want people talking about company with the Franks name attached and so I had to see him.I walked in with a faint smile on her face.Master Franks glanced at me and sat up on the chair. He then said with a pretentious smile which was very obvious. "Miss Alexia, you've been busy."I pretended that I couldn't hear the dissatisfaction in his words. And replied to him,"You're too kind, Master Franks. I've just taken over a project in another city, and I have a lot of things to do."I realized that talking to me was only pissing him off, so Master Franks decided not to argue with her. "Miss Alexia, you've worked hard. Shall we talk over lunch?""Okay."I responded and then led him out.As soon as they arrived, the dishes wer
Damon’s conclusion wasn’t his only, I knew that could happen. Jane had been punished by her family and so, without their permission, she couldn’t have attempted to hurt me once again. That family was that corrupt that, they didn’t mind using the only daughter of the family to commit bad deeds.I had had it to my neck and I couldn’t take it anymore, I had to do something which would put the franks family back in its place, off my back.I didn’t know what that could be but I began thinking about it when he visited once again. Damon had left and I was indoors browsing through the news about my so called pregnancy when I heard my door bell. I stood up and went to open up and there he was. I looked at him and thought of the information online and then asked him,“Are you here to verify that I am pregnant? If so, you should know that even if I am, you are not the father right?”Edward sighed before he replied to me, “It isn’t the reason that I am here. And I am sure that that you are not pr
