After hesitation, Charlie hoped that someone could stand out and answer him-—no! However, no one did answer him. David Pitt stood up and said, "Young master, this is our President Kyle. Is there a problem?" "Is, is he really Leo Kyle? The Leo Kyle who's in charge of Rovio Corporation Inc?" Charlie shook his head, hoping that David Pitt would deny it. For Charlie, this Kyle guy just happened to have Kyle as his family name and was working in Rovio Corporation Inc, but he definitely was not Leo Kyle of Rovio Corporation Inc. "Yes." David Pitt said coldly. "Impossible! That's ridiculous! How could he be Leo Kyle?" Charlie looked at Kevin Kyle again. Kevin Kyle was just Kevin Kyle. He was only Innovative Tech's CEO, and he had no major backup. How could he become the Leo Kyle in a blink of an eye? If Kevin Kyle was Leo Kyle, then the cooperation with Rovio Corporation Inc he wanted was going down the drain. As he thought about how he could no
Hehe... Karen Daly sneered and looked at Samuel Daly coldly. This was her sanctimonious father. She never knew that Samuel Daly had such skills to turn the world upside down. Samuel Daly said, "Karen, you'd better go back. I won't let you disturb your mother." "What else?" Karen Daly was not angry. She looked at Samuel Daly with a death glare. She wanted to see what kind of shameless words Samuel Daly could say today. Samuel Daly looked around but did not dare to look straight into Karen Daly's eyes. He waited for a while and said, "If you still regard her as your mother, you should be kind and let her leave with peace. Don't disturb her." As he said "Don't disturb her", Karen Daly's anger rushed up. If it weren't for Samuel Daly, her mother would still be alive. It was Samuel Daly who killed his own wife and Karen Daly's dearest mother. "Samuel Daly..." Karen Daly was about to get angry, but Kevin Kyle reached out and pulled
After crying for some time, Karen Daly stopped. Kevin Kyle's clothes and chest were soaked with her tears. Kevin Kyle had seen Karen Daly pretended to be strong before, but he never knew that she could cry so hard. He could not stop her. "Karen..." Kevin Kyle reached out and gently touched her swollen eyes with his thumb, wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes. Karen Daly's body shivered uncontrollably after crying. When she heard Kevin Kyle call her name, she shivered more. Kevin Kyle held her in his arms again and patted her back gently, just like comforting a crying child. Karen Daly raised her head from Kevin Kyle's arms, bit her lip, and tried to control her emotions. "I have to take care of my mother's funeral personally. I don't want Samuel Daly to get involved." Samuel Daly didn't want Karen Daly to see her mother because he wanted to threaten her and make her promise to do things she wouldn't do. But Samuel Daly would not say
Kevin Kyle had become Kristine Daly's boyfriend without knowing about it, and then he had been dumped by Kristine Daly without knowing about it? Karen Daly wanted to believe Kevin Kyle, but Kevin Kyle's explanation was too far-fetched and hard to believe. She glanced at him and did not speak. Then she turned her head and looked out of the window. Karen Daly did not speak, and Kevin Kyle did not know what else to say. Looking at her back, he reached out and pulled her into his arms. Karen Daly pushed him hard, but he was too strong. She couldn't push him away, so she raised her fist and punched him twice. "Karen, trust me," he said. His voice was deep and powerful, with a little sense of helplessness. Karen Daly did not struggle anymore. She bit her lips and asked softly, "Was it really just a coincidence that you had a blind date with me?" Kevin Kyle did not know how to answer this question. At first, he was appointed to be Kristine Daly'
It had been snowing for a whole day and night, and there was no sign of stopping. Karen Daly had suffered from the cold wind since 2 days ago and was heartbroken because of her mother's sudden death. She fell ill after returning from the cemetery yesterday. She had a high fever, which made her dizzy. The whole night she talked in her sleep. She kept calling out for her mom, crying and whining... Seeing her like this, Kevin Kyle's heart was almost in a mess. He hoped that she could open her heart to him and let him share some pain for her. But she didn't. She hid all the pain in her heart and slowly tried to fill it. She didn't want him to help her. He thought that after having physical intimacy with her, the relationship between them would naturally step forward, but it didn't. "Karen—" He touched her head, and his deep and sincere gaze fell on her pale little face. "Remember, no matter what happens, you have me." The things that Karen's
Hearing Karen Daly's voice, everyone looked over. She was wearing pajamas with a coat. Her long black hair draped over her shoulders. She looked so thin that it made people pity her, but there was a sharp light in her eyes. Kevin Kyle's heart sank. How long had she been here? How much did she hear? "Karen, you must have misunderstood daddy. We should sit down and talk about it as father and daughter." Samuel Daly didn't think about what Karen Daly had heard, or even bothered if Karen Daly would get hurt. He immediately put on a kind father's face. "For a person like you, who forced his own wife to death, I have nothing to say to you. You'd better get out of here right now and don't let me see you again." With such a father, Karen Daly did not think that she had anything to say to him. Seeing Samuel Daly, Karen Daly's remembered the memory of her mother lying in the morgue. Her mother was already in this condition, Samuel Daly still wanted to take adv
Now for Gook Corp and Samuel Daly, the Leo Kyle of Rovio Corp was their life-saving factor. As long as he spoke, the crisis of Gook Corp could be immediately resolved. The person who could help them get this life-saving factor was Kristine Daly. They pinned all their hopes on Kristine Daly. Standing in the dark, Kristine Daly listened to the conversation between the two men. Her lips curved slightly, revealing a desolate and indifferent smile. One of the men was her biological father, the other was the man she looked up to in her life, and also the father of her dead child. These two men were the closest people in her life. At this time, they were actually discussing how to send her away. She clenched her fists, trying not to laugh too hideously, and then walked lightly towards them. She looked at Charlie and smiled gently. "Charlie, you're here." "Yes." Charlie looked up at Kristine Daly. Kristine Daly wore a pink coat today, with a wint
"Don't think too much of it. Release, get rid of and destroy it. It's up to you." George Ken's smile was calm. Karen Daly did not understand what George Ken was referring to. She looked up at him quietly, and he continued, "Don't be so serious. Let me tell you a joke. I met a person a few days ago. He claimed to be the illegitimate child of the Gook family. He had been saying he wants to destroy Gook Corp. I suspect that he has paranoia." An idea flashed through Karen Daly's mind. She narrowed her eyes and looked at George Ken warily. "Who the hell are you? Why are you helping me?" George Ken smiled again, revealing his white and neat teeth. "Your psychiatrist, a doctor who treats your issues and shares your worries. Is there anything wrong?" Karen Daly looked at him in a daze, and then he said casually, "If you are satisfied with my treatment, remember to ask Matthew to compensate me more." George Ken said something else, but Karen Daly didn't pay attenti
...... Eight months later. Adrienne had given birth to a daughter, gathering the entire Yard family in Chatterton Town. Everyone was in high spirits but Jefferson had a sour expression on, as if that was the worst day of his life. Sierra found a moment and went over to Jefferson. "Hey, Jeff. Adrienne just gave birth but why do you have such a long face on? Did you want a son instead or something?" Jefferson responded rudely, "It doesn't matter to me whether it's a boy or a girl. That little girl is our daughter, and I'll love her no matter what." Sierra continued, "Why do you look so upset then?" "Must I have a reason for that?" Well, he was angry at himself. Adrienne had almost lost her life in the labor room earlier, but he hadn't been able to offer any help. Throughout Adrienne's pregnancy, Jefferson had done an enormous amount of research and found out that a C-section birth was relatively safer. Hence, he'd insisted that Adrienne und
...... Johan was still clamming up. Maxtor was so anxious that he couldn't stand still. "Johan, what happened between you and Sierra? Can't you at least explain the situation to me?" After a long silence, Johan looked up and out of the window. "There have been so many fights and misunderstandings between us in the past years and it seems that the past was a time that we can never go back to." Upon hearing this, Maxtor seemed to have put his finger on the crux of the problem. "Did Miranda make Sierra misunderstand you?" Maxtor said earnestly, "Johan, I've told you before that woman has a twisted psyche and you need to stay away from her. You pitied her for being an orphan, but look at what she has been up to." "It has nothing to do with Miranda. It's me. If I..." If he had explained everything to Sierra back then, she wouldn't have felt that insecure about their relationship. He knew everything, but he still got mad at her. Maxtor continued, "He
...... On the first day of school, Miranda was once again met with an unpredicted truth. She found out that Sierra was the top scorer in the entrance exam. She was the overachiever that every university was dying to recruit. Not only did Sierra come from a good family, but she was smart and beautiful to boot. Sierra possessed everything she could have in life. Miranda couldn't figure out why she had to take Johan away from her when she already had so much. What made Miranda even more disappointed was not her inferiority but Johan. On the first day of school, she was over the moon to see that Johan was at the gate to receive her. However, when Johan took her luggage from her and she was wallowing in her excitement to see him, He said to her, "Miranda, that is the girl I like, Sierra. She will be your sister-in-law in the future. You should get on well with her." She didn't want to be nice to her. Instead, she hated her. Mirand
...... Johan's words frightened Miranda so much that her face turned pale. "Johan, Mrs. Silas adopted me. I would have died a long time ago if it weren't for her. How could I have nothing to do with the Silas family?" Johan's face was somber, and his voice chilled Miranda to her bones. "You know that my mother was the one who took you in, but look at what you've been up to all these years?" "Johan, what-what did I do?" Miranda said, trembling with fear. Miranda was an expert at feigning a pitiful appearance and reaping sympathy from others. She even managed to tear up and gazed heart-wrenchingly at Johan at that very moment. However, Johan did not buy into her ploy at all. Not only did his eyes demonstrate her no pity, there was also a trace of disdain that Miranda had never seen before. He loathed her. Upon realizing that, Miranda's heart was broken. Johan had been her dream for those past years. She had worked so hard to do so many things in
...... Sierra wasn't able to refute because what Miranda said was the truth. It was indeed true that many could never compare with her background. However, although she was born privileged, that didn't spare her from putting in effort for her own future. Prestigious universities wanted her because she was the top scorer in the entrance exam but not because of her family background and connections. All of a sudden, Miranda smirked sinisterly. "I know you like Johan, and you want to be with him. Sierra, I like him too, and I want to be with him. You have everything so why do you still want to take my man away from me?" "Excuse me? Who took your man?" Displeased, Sierra said, "Miranda, you were the one who told me that you two were siblings, and that there was nothing going on between you guys. And mind you, you were also the one who encouraged me to go after him." Miranda shouted in a low voice, "Sierra, if I hadn't told you that, would you have remained fri
...... Averting her gaze, Sierra turned around with difficulty. However, just as she had taken a step forward, Miranda's voice sounded from behind. "Sierra, I didn't expect you to come to the airport to pick me up. Imagine my delight to be able to see you on the first day of my return." "You've misunderstood, Miss Attwood. I'm not here to pick you up." Sierra did not conceal her hatred for Miranda as she could not even be bothered to dole out the niceties at her. Miranda chuckled. "I haven't seen you for so many years, but you're still so adorable." It seemed that Miranda couldn't sense the despise Sierra had for her. She approached Sierra with a smile and wanted to give her a hug. Sierra stared at Miranda's outstretched arms and quickly dodged her. A single glance at Miranda and her eyes would be sullied. Sierra thought that she would even throw up should her body come into contact with Miranda's. Miranda was never good at reading between the
...... Stopping her car, Sierra quickly got off to check the situation. No sooner had her feet been on the ground that four men got off from the car in front of her and surrounded her. One of them pointed at her and barked, "Don't you f*cking know how to drive? If you don't, then don't drive. Say it, how much are you going to pay for the damage!" Sierra was driving in accordance to normalcy, but the other party had, so suddenly, cut into her lane without a signal. As hard as she had stepped on her brake, she still collided with the car. They were supposed to be the ones held accountable for the collision. However, they got out of the car and shouted at her, extorting compensation. Sierra suspected that these men had done so deliberately to scam her. She took out her mobile phone and was ready to call the police. However, before she could even unlock her phone, one of the men had already wrenched the phone away from her. "We have something important t
...... In the middle of cleaning the table, Rosie said, "He doesn't only come here to have meals, but he would also get one to go every time. No jalapenos on the one to go. He says that you can't take spices because your stomach doesn't handle it well." Sierra did have a stomach problem, but it wasn't till the point that she couldn't take spicy food at all. Moreover, Johan had never brought any tacos back for her. Sierra figured that he was probably getting it for someone else so she asked, "What did he say to you when he asked you to pack it?" Rosie smiled and said, "He said that he was going to bring it for his girlfriend. He's obviously talking about you, isn't he?" "Oh, his girlfriend." Smiling, Sierra did not put forth any more questions as she knew that Johan had never regarded her as his girlfriend. For him, she was nothing more like a leech that he couldn't shake off. Rosie looked at Sierra and said earnestly, "I know you two fought tod
...... "My ability to act coy?" Sierra said inwardly. She had no idea from where did his temper sneak in again. However, she knew that somehow everything she had done seemed to piss him off. If he didn't like her, then why did he come looking for her? Did he have nothing else better to do? She smiled and said, "Mr. Silas, since you don't like being around me, then let's not meet anymore in the future, nor have any meals together. I'm afraid your appetite will take a nosedive when you see me." "You shouldn't say that, Sierra." Rosie handed one of the plates to Sierra and said, "Every couple gets into fights, but you must know your boundaries. Some words are too hurtful, and you shouldn't just say everything that comes to your mind." Sierra didn't make a sound. She wasn't a fan of others poking their noses in her affairs. Besides, she was not close to Rosie either so she found her rather meddlesome. Rosie didn't seem to register in her mind that Sierra was d
