“Hey, Mimi, wait!” Jeanette hurriedly rushed out.Mimi was a celebrity. What if someone caught her running out into public in her tipsy state, took a picture, and posted it online?Luckily, the lights in the bar were dim, illuminated by flashing neon lights. Everyone was preoccupied with their own entertainment. No one noticed Mimi at all.She ran to the railing on the second floor, which happened to face the small stage where the band was performing.The bar’s resident band was currently pe
“Your parents don’t know? Are you planning on surprising them?”Xavier chuckled mysteriously. “I wouldn’t call it a surprise, more of a shock.”Just then, Mimi drunkenly lay on the couch, flipped over, and accidentally rolled off onto the ground.“Ah!” Her fall sobered her up, just a little bit.“Who are you? What are you doing?” Mimi was so drunk that she obviously couldn’t recognize Xavier.“What’s with her?” Xavier asked.“Ignore her. Tell me, since you’re back in the country, why haven
Damon had no idea what Xavier had been up to overseas. Xavier had used every means to shake off the subordinates Damon had sent to keep an eye on him. They couldn’t find anything at all.‘This d*mned kid must have some kind of huge trick up his sleeve.’However, he never expected Xavier to manage to slip into the country in secret.‘It probably wasn’t done in secret. Look at him now, so eager to flaunt himself in front of me.“Xavier, watch yourself.”Damon took Jeanette’s hand, turned ar
However, she, as the CEO of Leighton Inc., couldn’t afford to be late today.The meeting was at 9:30 a.m. The journey from their home to Leighton Inc. only took ten minutes, so there was no rush.In the car, she looked through the documents that Lucia had sent to her on her iPad. She encountered a portion that she did not really understand and bit her nails.Damon reached out and smacked the hand by her lips, then snatched the iPad away from her.“Hey! That’s confidential company material!”
At the hospital…Elias' heart broke when Damon appeared in front of him with his bloody hand.“I told you this before, you need to avoid getting your wound wet. What’d you do, slice it with a knife?”“Just shut up and fix it.” Damon snapped icily.“Damon, I’m a doctor, but I can’t fix patients who deliberately seek to handicap themselves.”He unwrapped Damon’s bandage, layer by layer. He saw that the wound on his hand was actually nearly healed but had been torn again and was bleeding profu
Xavier purposefully closed the door as soon as Parker left the room.“What are you planning?” Damon asked in an extremely cold and sharp voice.“I’m here to inform you that Godfrey Group will be having a shareholders’ meeting in a few days. You’re not going to enjoy this seat for very much longer, so you’d better enjoy it while it lasts.”Xavier patted him on the shoulder, smiling in a carefree manner.Damon frowned.‘A shareholders’ meeting?’He was the CEO, why hadn’t he heard of this?
After receiving a full-scale understanding of the situation, Damon knew that public relations could do nothing to solve this.The Godfrey Group had no other choice except to issue a public apology, fire the person in charge, and cease all construction projects.He finally understood why Xavier had so much confidence to stand in his office.Because he, the CEO of the Godfrey Group, was the person who had signed off on this particular project.“Sir, what do we do?”Parker had always been reso
As such, he agreed.Damon secretly heaved a sigh of relief.‘Xavier… That brat would even stoop to murder, just to drag me down. I won’t let him trample over me, just to get what he wants, even if I have to be torn to pieces.’When Damon stepped out of the entrance of Godfrey Tower, he found Jeanette, waiting anxiously outside.He paused then walked toward her.“When did you get here?”“I just arrived. I heard about the Godfrey Group’s crisis as soon as I finished my meeting.”Jeanette st
