In the car.She glanced at Damon thinking he might be thinking about what she would do in that situation. She scratched her hair slightly and asked, "Are you curious, Mr. Damon?"Hearing her words, Damon smiled, "About what?""If I am going to model for them?"There was a red light in front of them. The car stopped slowly. Damon tilted his head and looked at Alexia. "Is it important? It’s your choice, you can do whatever you want."‘Was it important?’ Alexia thought repeating Damon’s words in her mind.Alexia didn't expect him to ask her such a question. All of a sudden, she smiled and answered him, "Not really."As soon as she finished speaking, Damon's voice came from the side again. "What I'm more curious about is when will you be willing to accept my feelings?"She was stunned for a moment, but she quickly recovered and looked at Damon. Then she looked into her palms and said in a low voice, "I want to know too."Damon looked at her and said, "It doesn't matter. Tell me when you d
She was mad about what happened that noon. Not only was she angry, but she was also upset. She almost cried in front of Edward.But hearing Veronica scolding him, Alexia found herself calm. Something that wouldn’t happen while they were married.Veronica had always been unhappy with Edward. Now that such a thing had happened, she couldn't vent her hatred with just a few curses.Veronica cursed. Thinking of the silly question that Chris had just asked, she was in a bad mood. She couldn't wait to slap Chris. "Chris is a fool too!"She was amused by Veronica. "It doesn't matter. Anyway, it's all over.""All over?"Veronica snorted and said, “Alexia, let me tell you, you can't let it go! Edward insulted you! Wait and see. Sooner or later, I will find a chance to avenge you."She knew that Veronica was very angry at the moment, but she didn't even dare to say a word to Edward's face. Alexia seemed to remember something and so, she asked.Alexia laughed, “Veronica, have you heard about my b
The noise outside the door finally stopped. Edward looked at his empty wineglass. After a while, he took the decanter beside him, poured it into his glass, and drank it in one gulp.Alexia's words from that noon were more resounding than the slap she gave him. Even now, he could still remember each word clearly."Edward, you disgust me!""People make some mistakes when they are young. I was young, so I made a mistake. I liked you, but it doesn't mean that I like you now."She said she was disgusted by the likes of him.How funny. She used to like him so much, but she felt sick at the sight of him now?Didn't she like him very much?Didn't she like him that she drew a picture of him as his birthday gift? Edward couldn't understand why someone who used to like him so much suddenly felt disgusted by him.Was it because he had exposed her feelings that she became angry out of embarrassment?Or was it because her feelings for him were just so-so?Thinking of this, Edward found it ridiculou
Alexia woke up the next day in a good mood, she stretched her body and looked at the pair of white flats on her feet as stood. She couldn't help but smile when she thought of hugging Damon when she was troubled the day before. And the words he had said to her then she thought, Mr. Damon was really good at chasing people.However, what playboys had in common was the lack of patience. Alexia stopped thinking about this and removed her flats. She was in a much better mood after Damon’s attempt to cheer her up. Jane had always hated Alexia to the core and wasn’t going to spare a minute to rub her image in the dirt. Jane couldn't swallow her anger when she returned to her room. Thinking of what she had overheard, she gritted her teeth and took out her phone to call someone.She saw her brother drive in when she was dressing up after shower. She wanted to come down to say ‘hi’ when she saw him walking to the garden with the maid. She followed them out wondering what the maid and her brother
By the time Alexia found out that she was the mistress, the news had already been published for more than three hours.When the public opinion was brewing, Alexia was in a meeting, so she naturally knew nothing about what was happening on the Internet.When Veronica found out about this, she called Alexia, but none of the calls connected. Veronica was so angry that she asked her source to find out the person who issued the draft.Before Alexia's meeting, she left her phone in the office. After the meeting, she found out that Veronica had called her countless times and sent dozens of messages.By the time Alexia knew the whole story, the public opinion about her on the Internet was already overwhelming. Even if Veronica asked her source to do something, it wouldn’t help much.When Alexia saw that all the details of the wallpaper’ had been exposed and criticized, she was no longer just angry.In the past, people praised ‘Only I Know’ that was how she named the wallpaper, but now they we
When Robert got the phone call, his heart skipped a beat. Edward had been in a bad mood recently. He didn't want to go to the man's office unless absolutely necessary. Veronica had run out on him and he couldn’t do anything about it.However, he didn't really have a choice right then. Edward had asked for him personally. Robert bit the bullet and knocked on the door, "Mr. Frank’s?"He strolled to the desk and called out timidly. Edward had his head lowered. He was looking at...a phone? Robert didn't know what was going on, but he didn't dare ask. After a few seconds, he called again, "Mr. Frank’s?"Edward finally noticed Robert. He looked up and commanded, "Get rid of that trash online."Robert nodded, and responded "Yes, Mr. Frank’s.Edward stared at his assistant for a long time. Then, he asked abruptly, "Have you ever liked someone for ten years?"Robert didn't know why Edward was suddenly interested in stuff like that. They had never discussed anything personal but work. He paused
The drunk man cried out in pain as Edward grabbed his wrist. He even talked about teaching Edward a lesson later, but Edward was unfazed as he gripped the drunk man with more force. The drunk man sobered up a little due to the pain and quickly apologized for his dumb actions.The man beat a hasty retreat the moment Edward let go of him.Soon, Alexia and Edward were the only ones left in the corridor. Edward already knew about Alexia's fondness for him over the past decade.He looked at the woman differently now. He couldn't really explain his feelings right there and then. He couldn't turn them into words.He stared at Alexia for a long time. He wanted to tell her about the phone, but he eventually decided against it. "Did that scare you?" It was rare for him to be worried about her.She shook her head and replied to him, "No. Thank you, Mr. Bo, for stepping in."Alexia gave him a smile, but she was obviously holding back. The indifference in her eyes was too obvious for him to ignore
Bismarck received Joanna's call, and he thought he had seen wrongly. Taking a closer look, he realized that it was really Alexia calling. Bismarck quickly answered and said, "Hello, Miss Joanna. It's me, Bismarck."After being taught a lesson by Alexia the last time, Bismarck was naturally not as arrogant as he used to be.Although Joanna didn't have a good impression of the Franks family, she had been with Jonas for so long. No matter who she was with, she was neither humble nor arrogant. She was simply polite. "Hello, Mr. Bismarck. I'm Joanna, Miss Alexia's secretary. Miss Alexia wants to meet Master Franks. I wonder if it's convenient for them to meet tonight?"Bismarck was surprised by what Bismarck had said. It was indeed surprising that Alexia took the initiative to meet him, but Bismarck didn’t dare to give an answer at this time. "Miss Joanna, I need to check with Master Franks. Can I give you a call later?""Okay, thank you."After hanging up, Bismarck immediately went to fin
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
