"Master Franks, something came up for me previously, that was why I had to reject your invitation. I hope you don't take offence." Alexia apologised as soon as she started. This only solidified the idea to Master Franks that Alexia was here to make amends.

He was initially cold, but when he heard Alexia's words, he smiled a little. "It was my fault for not thinking it through. You are a busy woman nowadays after all."

Alexia smiled and said to him, "I'm all right. It was such a coincidence though that I had a lot going on that day."

Her first sentence was fine, but she just had to mention that what happened that day was a coincidence.

If this was before, Master Franks’ face would have already darkened by now.

But he was the first to take the lead today, so he hadn't picked up on the double meaning in her words. Jane understood it though. She glanced at Alexia, but she didn't want her to look back at her. Jane was still feeling very guilty, so she chose not to say much.

    She threw the envelope in front of Jane and Master Franks. The pictures slid out of the envelope. The old man had shortsightedness so he couldn't see it clearly at first. But he could clearly hear the mockery in Alexia's voice. His face darkened. And he said feeling angry "Miss Alexia, what do you mean? I showed you respect by even coming here to eat dinner with you. I didn't come here so you could be angry at us!"She looked into Master Franks’ angry eyes, the smile on her face did not change at all. "What do I mean? I think you should take a look at the photos first, Master Franks, and then ask your beloved granddaughter what she has been up to recently."The old man’s face turned green, and he reached out to grab the photos. Beside him, Jane wanted to snatch them away, but she was so scared by Master Franks’ expression that she did not dare to move.The old man picked up the photos and looked at them. In the pictures, Jane could be seen talking to a man in a cafe. Master Franks cou

    As soon as Alexia finished speaking, Master Franks' face turned red from anger.The last sentence that Alexia had uttered had completely hit his weak spot. Having lived such a long life, there were not many things that he was afraid of. However, as people got older, they tended to care more about their reputation.When Master Franks was younger, he was often looked down open. He had to work hard to build the Franks up. And wasn’t an easy nut to crack, he knew his now and it was anything that could destroy the name he had made for himself. Nowadays, there weren't many people who dared to disrespect him. Regardless, no matter how arrogant he was, he couldn't stop other people's gossip.It was other people's freedom to say whatever they pleased. If Alexia really shared all these things out and people wanted to bad mouth the Franks family, it wasn't like Maser Franks could come out and tell them all to shut up.It was at this moment that Master Franks finally realized that Alexia wasn't h

    For a moment, the room was extremely quiet. Jane watched everyone in the room and she knew she was done for. Her grandfather was been trampled on because of her hasty action. There was no way she was coming out of the situation without getting hurt. She might as well curry some favour from her grandpa by coming clean and humbling herself. She couldn't help saying, "Miss Alexia, you're different now. We won't dare to treat you like before. Don't worry. I admit I did this. I promise to give you a satisfactory answer."When Alexia heard Jane's words, she laughed out loud. "Oh. Pray tell what kind of satisfactory answer you can give me?"As she spoke, she looked at Jane and smiled sarcastically. "Miss Jane, how do you know that I will be satisfied with your answer?"At this time, after a few seconds of silence, Master Franks opened his mouth and said, "Alexia, we used to be a family. Let's not take this so far, Jane has made a mistake. Tell me, what do you want? As long as we can, I'll ma

    After leaving Franks Jewellery company, Edward didn’t leave immediately.He sat in the car, lit a cigarette, and looked at the road outside the window. It wasn’t until he was done with the cigarette that Edward started the car and left.When Chris called, Edward had been parked at Alexia's apartment for more than half an hour.Before he came, the sky was still bright, but now it was completely dark. Night fell, and the lights in the City brightened the night. Edward withdrew his gaze from outside the car window and picked up his vibrating phone to take a look. He frowned upon looking at the caller ID.Edward didn't want to answer Chris's call now, but the vibration was too distracting.He tried to decline, but accidentally pressed the "Answer" button with his finger.The phone wasn’t on speaker, but in the quiet car, Chris's voice was still very clear. "Edward, are you crazy? Even if you despise Alexia, you don't have to put those things on the Internet, do you?"Hearing Chris's words

For the very first time in his life, Edward was at a loss.He narrowed his eyes and closed the comments. Then he dialled Alexia's number. However, he decided not to call in the end. The news had been on the Internet for several hours. He only found out about it after everyone in the City had seen it.Somehow, Alexia had become the 'third party' between him and Rachael.

    As soon as Jane finished speaking, Master Franks snorted coldly. "You know you were wrong? Didn't you say that last time? But did you learn from it?""Are you aware of the Ferrero family’s background in Southern world? Are you blind or deaf? Can't you hear or see? How do you benefit if our family has a falling out with the Ferrero family? Do you think that only Alexia will be disgraced from the mess you’ve caused? Everyone else will talk about our Franks family."Master Franks became more furious as he spoke. The veins on his forehead were popping. "You are the youngest in the family. You have an elder brother. I have never asked you to make any contributions to our family. I only asked you not to not cause any trouble. I wanted Alexia and your brother to get married again, but you offended Alexia! Do you think that after what you’ve done, there are still many good families who are willing to marry your brother? If people know what you have done, which man would dare to marry you?"Ma

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
