Anyone in the company who had a basic knowledge of the CEO's life could easily recognize Lisa as the CEO's ex-girlfriend. There were even several videos of them circulating online.When reporters crowded around Lisa and accused her of being a homewrecker, Terry had swiftly come to her rescue, creating speculation within the company whether she would rise to power soon.However, to their surprise, Terry later returned to Jorvik alone. Therefore, most believed that Lisa had failed, yet here she was, seeking him out once again.Lisa blinked innocently at Terry and suggested, "Um... maybe we should discuss this in your office? You wouldn't want others to know what I left at your place, right?""I don't mind. What did you leave at my place?" Terry asked, growing irritated."Do you really want me to say it?" Lisa hesitated."Say it."Lisa cleared her throat and reluctantly revealed, "Well, the tampons you bought for me, I forgot to take them with me when I left. Also...""Enough!" Te
He would drink coffee from the couple's mug she bought, lean against the couple's pillow when he sat on the sofa reading, and even wear the fluffy Mickey Mouse slippers she bought for him (her slippers were Minnie Mouse slippers).She had even joked about taking their future child to Disneyland."I already threw them all away," Terry said without hesitation.Lisa paled, and she nervously bit her lip. After a moment, she seemed to regain her spirit and said, "It's okay, I can just buy them again."Terry appeared somewhat displeased and replied, "What do you want now, Lisa? I thought I've made things very clear yesterday. If you want money, speak to my secretary. If you don't want money, then leave Jorvik and go back to Solaria."He didn't want her to keep showing up in front of him like this, as it would make his mind a mess.Lisa gently tugged at Terry's sleeve. "Terry, won't you forgive me? I... I didn't know about the blood parasite. I also didn't know that you begged Monica Ha
"You didn't tell me anything because you're afraid that I would be heartbroken if you didn't survive the blood parasite removal, right?" Lisa asked, finally understanding his hesitation and silence.Terry didn't give her a direct answer. Instead, he said, "When I miraculously survived and all the blood parasites were finally removed from my body, what did I find waiting for me? It was you, in the hospital, planning to abort our baby. It was you who said you had no feelings for me anymore and would never love me anymore!"Each word felt like a painful blow to Lisa."I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry..." Lisa choked out, filled with remorse."There's no need to apologize. Even if you tell me that you love me now, it's already meaningless," Terry responded coldly.But Lisa's hand remained on Terry's cheek, refusing to let go."It's not meaningless. If I made your heart turn cold and lifeless, then I'll warm it up again. Terry, please, give me a chance. Just one chance!" Lisa pleaded desper
He instinctively resisted, refusing to even hear it! Terry ignored Lisa and proceeded to open the files on his desk, focusing on his work. Meanwhile, Lisa sat on the nearby sofa, placing the snacks she brought on the coffee table. She went to the water dispenser to pour herself a glass of warm water, then ate the snacks while browsing through parenting websites on her phone.In this unusual yet peaceful atmosphere, everything felt natural. Lisa stole glances at Terry, who was deeply absorbed in his work. At this moment, it felt like things had returned to the way they used to be.In the past, if he was busy when she visited him, she would relax on the sofa in his office, enjoying snacks and drinks. His office was always stocked with various snacks she enjoyed, to the point where she once playfully complained, "Look at me, I'm gaining weight. You always tempt me with the snacks in your office. I'm going to get fat.""What's wrong with that? Even if you get fat, I'll still love you,
Wait a minute... Lisa suddenly realized that her phone was not in her hand. She sat up abruptly. When she saw her phone on the coffee table, she let out a sigh of relief. However, she suddenly thought of something. She immediately grabbed her phone and opened the photo album to check...She almost choked on her breath from shock. Where were all the photos of him that were in her phone?! They're all gone! She was looking at them earlier before she fell asleep!Lisa, holding her phone, quickly walked up to Terry. "Did you delete the photos in my phone?" she questioned."I only deleted photos of myself. Don't I have the right to decide what to do with my own photos?" Terry calmly replied."You..." Lisa's eyes turned teary. "Do you have any idea...""All I know is that they’re all photos of me," Terry interrupted. "And also, I don't appreciate being disturbed when I'm working."Lisa was speechless. In the end, she silently sat back down on the sofa. She was initially happy when she
She was crying. Standing on the roadside, she kept wiping away tears from her face with one hand, while tightly gripping her phone with the other."Stop the car!" Terry shouted.The driver quickly pulled the car over to the side of the road. Terry immediately got out of the car and approached Lisa. "What are you doing here? Why..."His voice came to an abrupt halt when he saw her face as she looked up at him. Her eyes were red and filled with tears. The sight tugged at his heart."Waah!" Lisa suddenly raised her hands and pounded Terry's chest repeatedly.Terry grabbed her hands with a frown. "What's gotten into you? What happened?""They're gone! The photos... they're all gone! The phone repair shops all said the photos can't be retrieved anymore, they're completely erased!" Lisa sobbed. "Do you have any idea how important those photos are to me? How could you delete them?"Terry's frown deepened, his voice turning cold. "I already told you, those are my photos. I can do whatev
Because... that's their baby!He still cared about the baby after all!When the car arrived at the best maternity hospital in Jorvik, Terry carried Lisa out of the car. Inside the hospital, doctors and nurses were already waiting for them after receiving prior notification.Lisa was taken directly into the examination room for a check-up. Terry stood outside the room, still holding the phone that Lisa had been holding the entire time.He had no idea that she cared so much about those photos. She had actually spent the afternoon running around visiting phone repair shops to try retrieving the photos.They're her memories?Terry didn't know how to feel about that.Suddenly, the phone rang. The caller ID was "Mom."After a moment of hesitation, Terry answered the phone. "Auntie Hersha? This is Terry."Lisa's mother on the other end of the phone sounded surprised. "You... Why are you the one answering the phone? Where's Lisa?""She's feeling a bit unwell, so I brought her to the
When Terry returned to the White family mansion, he saw his mother, whom he had not seen for a long time, in the living room. She was elegantly dressed, adorned with expensive jewelry, as if she wanted everyone to know that she was now the mistress of the White family.Their relationship was not exactly good or bad; they were more like partners than family. She gave him life and fed and housed him, investing time and effort into his upbringing. Even when the family's main branch tried to get rid of him, she fiercely protected him. It could be said that she played a significant role in his rise to power.However, his mother only saw him as a tool to improve her own status. She had no real affection for his father. In the pursuit of a wealthy life, she chose to become his father's mistress. Of course, her ambitions didn't stop there; that's why she worked hard to conceive him and raise him.When he was young, his mother often told him, "You're a child of the White family. Just lik
