Hallie stood there and watched Darren’s car disappear in the distance. She swallowed up the lump in her throat and wiped her tears. She couldn’t believe the binding pain being caused by her breaking heart.Darren used to love her so much and spoil her. How could he be so cruel to her now? It seemed that everything they had shared and gone through meant nothing to him.And it was all because of Areiza. This was her fault. She must have bewitched Darren into staying away from me. Hallie could not hate her more. She greeted her teeth and thought, ‘Your day will come, Areiza. Let’s just wait and see.’Then, her phone rang, interrupting her thoughts. “Hello.” Hallie answered impatiently.“Hello, Miss Davis. I’m employee of the Davis Group.” The caller was a man with an unfamiliar voice.“And why are you calling me?”“I have a way to save your company,” the man searched firmly.Hallie’s heart leaped to her throat, “Is this some kind of a joke? Who the hell are you?”“Meet me in the booth 50
After speaking with Rose, Areiza frowned and wondered what Hallie was plotting again. That woman was always making trouble.While she was lost in thought, Darren sent her a video called Request. She beamed and answered.“Honey, with whom were you on the phone just now? I tried calling you many times, but I couldn’t get through. Was it a man or a woman?”The tone of Darren’s always cracked her up. He was trying not to sound jealous and possessive but was feeling miserable. “Relax. It was Rose. How are you?” Areiza wondered if she should tell Darren what Rose told her/“Did Rose tell you that Hallie was hanging out with a man named Kevin?”Areiza’s eyes widened in surprise. “Yes. How did you know?”“Kevin is a spy. Nancy hired him to approach Hallie. They are working together to destroy the Davis Group.”Areiza’s curiosity was aroused and she asked, “And what’s your role in this game?”“My role? An insignificant one. When are you coming home? I’m getting a little fed up with the little
Areiza tried going back to sleep. But before she could completely drift off, her phone rang. She clicked her tongue and thought, ‘Who could possibly call me this early in the day?’Areiza didn’t want to answer, so she grabbed the quilt and pulled it over her head. But her phone kept ringing. It seemed that whoever was calling did not intend to give up. She groaned and reached for her phone on the bedside table. The call was from coming from Rose.“Hey, Areiza. I heard that you’re back. Let’s have drink tonight. I have something to tell you.”“I can’t tonight, Rose. I have something to deal with. How about tomorrow night?”“That works for me and maybe there will be a good show for us to watch.”“Alright then, see you.”After hanging up with Rose, Areiza could not fall asleep anymore. So, she decided to just get up and wash up. While she was brushing her teeth in the bathroom, the heavenly smell of breakfast wafted in from the kitchen as a response. As a response, her stomach grumbled.
Not long after, Alex left Darren’s company and went back to the bar.Once there, a waiter ran towards him, catching his breath. “Mr. Alex, come with me please. Rose is drunk inside her car. We thought it wouldn’t be appropriate for us to get close to her, so we decide to lock her in the car for time being.”Alex frowned at him and asked, “Why the hell did you lock her in there? Couldn’t you just have helped her out?”The waiter appeared to be embarrassed. But Alex didn’t have the patience to wait for his explanation, so he just strode downstairs.Soon, Alex reached Rose’s can and opened the back door. It was then that he found that parts of her body were naked. His immediate reaction was to close the door.“Oh, Alex. It’s you.” Rose pushed the door open. She was leaning against the backseat, visibly drunk. Her coat and trousers had been casually thrown aside. One of the shoulders of her shirt was falling off, and her breasts were half-exposed. Alex was only a man, so he must admit tha
The Davis Group had gone bankrupt at her very hands. Defeated and regretful, Hallie drove away from the company, wandering for a long time before going home. But when her car arrived at the gate, it didn’t open.Frowning, she got out of the car. As soon as she approached the iron gate, she saw two black figures rushing towards her, followed by the sound of fierce barking of dogs.“Ah!”Hallie was so scared that she staggered back and fell awkwardly to the ground, causing her to accidentally graze her palm. The pain from the minor wound felt like it was burning her. “Damn it! Why are these dogs in my house?”She hobbled to her feet. The two German Shepherds were still barking at her as she looked across the iron gate, scanning the courtyard. On the lawn, Nancy was bent over, catching her breath as she threw a tennis racket onto the ground. At this time, Kevin ran to her side, wiping the beads of sweat on her forehead.‘What’s Kevin doing with Nancy? Have they known each other for a long
At that moment, Darren grabbed Areiza by the waist before lifting her off his lap. Then he stood in front of her. Areiza gazed crossed his shoulder, meeting Hallie’s resentful eyes. Hallie demanded angrily, “Areiza! Were you the one who instigated Nancy to destroy the Devil’s group?”“Hey! Who let this crazy woman in? Where are the bodyguards? Drive her out!” Rose immediately jumped to her defense and stormed over with a furry of a scorned woman.But Hallie suddenly brandished a large knife and began waving threateningly at Rose. Her eyes burned with manic ferocity. She seemed to breathe fire as she hissed, “Come at me if you have the guts!”“Rose, get away from her!” Alex stepped forward in a flash, holding Rose protectively in his arms to shield her.Emma screamed, horrified.Hallie’s expression was twisted as she aimed the sharp end of the knife at Areiza. She no longer looked sane, ‘Answer me, Areiza. Answer me, or else…”Areiza glared back at Hallie, and her lips curled up in a d
“Darren… I’m warning you, if you dare to do something this reckless again and disregard your life, I promise that when you die, I will immediately take my son with me and remarry another man. See, if you can jump out of the grave and stop me!” Areiza’s eyes were red and moist. Even though her words were harsh, but her hands, which were bandaging his wound, became gentle and gentle. Crystal tears fell from her eyes, streaming past her cheeks slowly.“It’s hurt…” Darren mumbled, pretending to be pitiful.“Humph! You asked for it!” Areiza was not moved. She was furious this time.“Areiza, I swear, I won’t do that again! For the sake of you and our child, I will cherish my life!” Darren promised to Areiza. His voice was stern and his eyes serious.Areiza looked quietly into his eyes and noticing the sincerity in his eyes, she gradually calmed down, sighed helplessly, and gently hugged him. “Darren you have to remember to think carefully before you do anything dangerous. You still have you
The following day, as soon as Alex walked out of his room, he saw Rose in a gorgeous dress. It looked like she had somewhere to be. “Rose, hang on! Are you going somewhere? And if you are, who are you meeting? Is it a man or a woman?” Naturally, Alex was upset.“Alex this is my life, and I don’t have to report everything to you. So, don’t interrogate me like nagging wife.” Rose rolled her eyes and made a face at him.“Who are you calling a nagging wife? Are you talking about me?” Alex could no longer regulate his voice at his point. And he was particularly shouting at her.‘Damn it. How is she always on a point?’ He wondered.“Whatever, Alex I don’t want to fight with you so early in the morning. Your blind date, Nicole, will meet you at the 10 in the morning. Don’t say I don’t remind you, okay? Anyway, I’m rooting for you!” Rose raised an eyebrow at him and smirked before she turned around and began to walk away.‘What’s wrong with her? Why is so happy that I’m going to see another w
Darren carried Charlotte to the suite upstairs of the hotel near the church, where the reception was held. Inside, he placed Charlotte on the bed while he sat on the edge of the bed and said, “When are you planning to open your eyes?”Charlotte kept her eyes closed and held her breath nervously, not daring to open her eyes.“Well, it’s good things you that you don’t want to wake up!”Before Charlotte could even begin to understand what he meant, she felt his warm breath seep into the skin on her face. Charlotte opened her eyes and met Darren’s deep-set smiling gaze. His face was inches away from her and he was about to kiss her. Fortunately, he stopped the second she opened her eyes.Seeing his smile made Charlotte excited. “You know that I just pretending?”Darren didn’t answer the questions. “Were you aware that I was outside at the time?”Charlotte couldn’t respond to his query, so she just looked at him blankly. She had won the bet. At first, Charlotte just hoped that Stella could
Today was Peter and Anna’s wedding day.Darren came to the villa early in the morning to pick up Charlotte. However, Charlotte didn’t want to show up with him in the same place.“Charlotte, if you don’t want to see news about us breaking up tomorrow morning, then you had better come with me.”Even if their relationship was on the verge of breaking right now, the truth remained that the public still saw them as a loving couple. Though Charlotte was uncomfortable about the idea, she had no choice but to go to the party with Darren.When they entered the banquet hall, Darren wrapped his arm around her waist and pressed her body against her.The fabric of Charlotte's dress was thin, so when his palm landed on her waist, Charlotte’s body temperature rose and she felt her blood coursing through her veins.All the other guests at the wedding looked at them with envy. Teasing and sighing at how sweet they were.Charlotte was so embarrassed that she turned to him and said, “Let me go, will you
Peter was right behind the door when he saw Stella badgering Darren. He watched as Darren pushed her away and ran after Charlotte.Stella fell to the ground, but she got up held onto Darren’s lap, and continued begging regardless of how humiliating her act was.“Darren, where are you going? Don’t go! Please.”“Let me go,” Darren growled. In an act of desperation, Stella shook her head, held on to him, and refused to let go. She was no longer the proud woman she once was.“Darren, I’m begging you. Just give me a chance to be with you!”Finally losing his patience, Darren pushed her away from him and stopped her before she could latch him again.“Stella, you have no idea why I’m letting you show your face to me. It’s not because you are my friend, nor it’s because I want to keep some sort of connection to you.”“Then why?” Stella asked with tears in her eyes.Peter didn’t hear what Darren said in the end. He saw how despair consumed Stella and it showed on her face. She fell on her knee
“Its fine. Rose and I share a birthday. Charlotte is a good friend with her, so I’m sure she will be willing to celebrate her birthday.” Stella said firmly.At that moment, Dora crap out by Stella so well-informed. ‘And she is so adamant on getting her hands on Darren.’The more Dora thought about it, the more she sensed something was amiss.As soon as Dora got home, she told Charlotte everything that Stella asked her to do.Charlotte pondered for a moment and said, “You should ask him directly. He can make decisions on his own.”“Aren’t you worried that rumors would circulate if he attended her birthday party?”“He probably won’t go,” Charlotte replied after some consideration.Dora nodded in agreement.The next morning, Dora asked Darren for his opinion. He just looked at her, and asked, “What did Charlotte say?”“She said that it’s up to you,” Dora answered.“Up to me?” Darren frowned in confusion.“Yes, but she also said that he probably won’t go,” Dora added.“Is that so? I will
“But I can’t stand it anymore, baby! Just let me fuck you, okay?” Darren lifted her chin with his finger and begins sucking on the tip of her tongue.Everything he did felt so good that Charlotte eventually gave in. He began caressing her tits, rubbing her nipples, and then pulling them. Soon, Darren loosened his grip on them. Charlotte’s breasts jiggled and bounced after he let them go.“Ugh,” A moan escaped Charlotte’s mouth, completely arousing Darren. He pressed his body against Charlotte. Thereafter, Charlotte felt he is huge manhood rubbing against her vagina. As Darren kept moving, Charlotte's desire grew, and she could no longer think of anything else.“Charlotte, can I?” Darren pressed his manhood against her, making her wetter by the second.“Darren, I want It. Give it to me.” Charlotte had no strength to hold back his neck. She wanted to grab something, but all she could do was to randomly wave her hands in the air.“What do you want me to give you baby? Tell me.” Darren be
After the meal, Darren touched Charlotte's forehead to check her temperature again and pulled her out of the Starlight restaurant.“Come with me to my office.”“But I wanna go home and rest,” Charlotte complained.“Well, you can sleep inside my office, too. Come on!” Darren put his hand on her shoulder and gently pushed her to his car.When Charlotte got into the car, she was about to fasten her seat belt, but then Darren leaned into it and fastened it for her. The tenderness in his eyes made Charlotte blush.Darren then cupped her cheeks, smiled at her, and leaned closer to her face. “Kiss me!” he said.“Huh?”Just before Charlotte could gather her composure, he lifted her chin and kissed her lips. Charlotte held her breath nervously too anxious to make any noise.It was already lunchtime, so many people were coming and going outside the place. Their car park was visible to many people. Passerby could easily spot them if they would look at them.Charlotte didn’t want other people wat
Because of how he reacted, the doctor felt tense and uncertain about what to do.Charlotte's face palmed and said to the doctor, “Honestly, I am feeling alright already. I’m sure I will get better after taking the antipyretic injections. Thank you, doctor!”The doctor nodded with a smile and left the room.Once he was gone, Darren sat back in his chair and directed his attention back to Charlotte. “You really can’t take your eyes off a handsome man when you see one, can you?”“What are you talking about? I was not looking at him.”He was so angry that he was practically snarling at Charlotte. “Are you not attracted to me anymore, Charlotte?”The look of jealousy and frustration on his face was amusing. He looks so childish!Once Charlotte's infusion was done, Darren held her out of the hospital while holding her wrist. By the time they reached the gate, their fingers were already interlocked. Charlotte’s heart felt a sense of comfort and warmth as she held his hand with him.After the
For a long time, Anna I stood frozen on the spot with her hand hovering above the door.Eventually, she dropped her hand with a sigh. She found a corner by the porch and curled up in it to cry her eyes out. the crowd.After a long time, Charlotte came back and was surprised to see her at the door. “Anna?”Anna looked up at her, her cheeks red with embarrassment. It was indeed abrupt for him to come here, but she had nowhere else to go. “Charlotte, can you take me in for one night?” She wiped the tears on her face and asked brazenly.Charlotte gaped at her for a few seconds before walking up to her. She held her hand and took it. “Come in!” Charlotte said.Charlotte asked the maid to cook some soup and bought it for her.Seeing the steaming hot soup in front of her, Anna felt the warmth and acceptance of the family, which was also something she earned for most. Anna picked up the bowl and felt a lump in her throat.Charlotte’s three kids sat opposite and looked at Anna curiously. Anna
Stella called Peter out of the blue and asked him to come to the bar where she was and keep her company.During her drunken speech, she broke into sobs several times.When Peter hung up the phone, he hesitated for a while but eventually decided to drive to the bar.Judging by Stella’s near-incoherent speech, she was very drunk. Not only that, she was a drunk woman in a bar alone. The number of things that could happen was too high for Peter to even contemplate.When Peter got there, he saw many empty bottles on her table. Stella was in the process of pouring more wine when Peter walked up to her and confiscated the bottle.“You have enough to drink!”With tears streaming down her face, Stella turned to look at him in disappointment. “Why are you here?”“Who else could it be if it were not for me?” Peter asked him confused.“I don’t want you. I want Darren.” And all of a sudden, Stella grabbed his shirt and looked up at him with hatred and determination.Her reaction pissed Peter off a
