None of them said anything. Alicia was holding onto the table tightly and shaking as if she is going to fall in the next moment.She was so angry and ashamed that she wanted to kill Alice.Alicia thought to herself, “Alice you bit*h! How dare you film it and show them to George! Not only did you threaten me but got in the way of me getting back to George. God knows, this is my last chance.”“Tell me will you read it or not?”Alicia gritted her teeth in silence for a long time before answering, “Yes, I will.”Alice nodded and put her USB drive into her bag. Before leaving the conference room, she said calmly, “By the way, Alicia there is one more thing you need to do it. Tell Wind Media and those people you hired on the internet to delete the posts. Otherwise, you will know what I will do to you.”Alicia stood at the door of the conference room with her back to Alice. She was extremely angry, so she clenched her teeth very hard. After a long time, she squeezed a few words through her g
Alice’s heart skipped a beat when she heard Zayden say the word “Insignificant passerby.”She realized that she had been “an insignificant passer-by” to him just a few months before. Also, six years earlier, Max had been “an insignificant passer-by” to him. So, maybe for Zayden, it did not make a difference whether they were around him or not.Alice couldn’t help but feel a chill down her spine and an uncontrollable shiver running down her spine at the thought.The following day, just as Alice arrived at the hotel door, the receptionist said to him, “Miss Brown, a gentleman came here to see you.”Alice then saw a familiar figure in the public lounge area in the lobby. She nodded at the receptionist to thank her and then walked over to him. The man was Jones, the butler of the Collins family. Jones was dressed in a nice suit. Although he was in his sixties, he still looked energetic, just like Sean.“Jones, hell. What brings you here?”Seeing Alice, Jones smiled and said, “Hello, Madam
Trevor looked around and pointed at the largest one in the middle, “Okay, this one looks good.”Trevor looked at the sales clerks around him, and he could tell from their eyes that the diamond was costly. The manager remained calm because she was experienced and knew she should be professional.She asked, “What do you want that ring look like? If you have a design in mind, you can tell us.”“Oh, I don’t have too many requests. I just want it to be special and to fit her vibe.”“What kind of vibe?” The clerk asked cautiously. Trevor closed her eyes and thought for a moment, then said, “Hot and sexy.”The manager blinked in surprise and then looked at Zayden, who was sitting on the side. She hoped that he would say something to make her understand what Trevor was talking about.Zayden frowned and moved away, saying indifferently, “Oh, I don’t know him.”Trevor acted as if he hadn’t heard Zayden’s words. He said to the store manager, “Hey you know what, I can give you a few picture of he
“Adrian, try this salad! It’s delicious, and I bough it for you.”“Thank you, Maggie, I will try it.” Adrian nodded and then took the salad bowl Maggie handed to him.Maggie deliberately acted shy and said, “You are welcome dear, “Trevor thought their intimate interaction was an eyesore. However, he didn’t say anything and just kept holding back. But after a while, he finally couldn’t hold himself.He asked with hostility, “Hey, Adrian, is it true that you have lost your memory? Well, even if it’s true, do you think it’s appropriate for you to do this? You are not working, and you are also being a freeloader all the time.”Maggie rolled her eyes at Trevor and said, “It’s none of your business, for God’s sake! It was obvious that you are the one who came here to eat for free! Why are you saying that about Adrian?”“Maggie, why…”Maggie raised her hand and roared, “Shh, stop it. I don’t want to argue with you today, Trevor. So, shut up.”Trevor was outraged.When Alice saw that he want
“The boss of England Branch of RS Travel Group is coming in the afternoon. She is going to personally examine the qualification of our hotel. So, no one can make a single mistake, including the cleaning ladies and the chefs. Understand? Great let’s go for it!”Alice just finished a meeting in the conference room of the Dream High Hotel. Previously, the headquarters had negotiated long-term cooperation with RS, a well-known foreign tourism group. The preliminary work had been completed, and all that was left was the on-site examination, the RS group had selected Alice’s hotel in the draw.Therefore, as long as the team thought the hotel was qualified, they could sign up for a long time partnership. After that, all RS’s England branch travelers would stay at the Dream High Hotel.It was a scorching afternoon, and the hotel manager was waiting for the group to come to the entrance.After a while, a black Bentley pulled up at the front door. Then, an assistant got off from the passenger s
“All right, thank you. You are the best!” Daisy said with a smile.After taking her shoes off, Daisy leaned back on the couch. She was giggling the whole time when she was talking. But when she thought of something, she suddenly stopped laughing. She immediately asked earnestly, “Hey, Trevor, I remember that you told me earlier that Zayden has a girlfriend. Is she the lobby manager named Alice Brown?”“Oh, nothing. I happened to see her at the hotel today. She is pretty beautiful, I thought. Well, I have to hang up now, sorry. I will take you to dinner in a few days, okay?”After Daisy hung up the phone, she put the phone aside. Then, she sat down on the sofa and wrapped her hands around her legs. She leaned back on the cushion and then began to ponder.She thought to herself, the woman I saw this morning is Zayden’s girlfriend. I think she is young and pretty. But she is not as beautiful as me. Also, I feel that she is a pushover and has nothing special. I thought Zayden did not like
After walking out of the bathroom, the first thing Zayden did was look for Alice. However, he didn’t see her. He asked the receptionist where she went, but they had just changed shifts and she didn’t know what had just happened.“She probably went back home. You know, it’s late.” Daisy said and took Zayden’s hand.Then she leaned against Zayden, blinking her reddened eyes and saying in a muffled voice, “Zaydne I am a little tired. Would you take me home?”They stood at the front desk, making the receptionist look stunned.The receptionist looked dumbfounded at them and then wondered what was going on. They all knew Zayden and Alice were in a relationship. But they don’t know why Daisy was so close to Zayden.Zayden absentmindedly looked at the hotel gate and then had a bad feeling in his heart.He knew that Alice wouldn’t leave the banquet without telling him, even if she had something urgent to take care of. After all, Alice had never done such a thing before.Daisy seemed to be drun
Sensing that something was off, Trevor kept his mouth shut.Alice turned back to Trevor and looked at him sorrowfully. They have known each other since they were kids, she thought to herself.Maggie urged him, “Ah, it turns out that you do know about it! Tell me everything!”Trevor looked at the two women and realized that if he didn’t tell the truth, he had been screwed. After thinking for a while, Trevor decided to betray Zayden for the time being.“Daisy surname is Miller. Her family knows our family and the Collins for many years. Zayden, her tow brothers and me are about the same age, so we used to hang out together when we were kids. However, Zayden was a bit loner and didn’t like to play with us. Daisy was younger, and we didn’t like to play with her. So, Zayden always spent time with her.”Their parents were happy to see that these two children hit off. And Zayden’s father had always wanted a daughter before. So, he treated Daisy as his daughter. Every time he saw her, he was
“Mom, don’t come over!” Eliana and Max yelled at the same time.“Alice, you are such a lucky bitch. You have such two wonderful children. I have worked hard my entire life, but now I have nothing in the end,” Jessica said in an envious tone.‘Did you just mention children? Could be that you suddenly wanted to meet Gary before you die because he’s your only family?’ At the thought, Alice gently asked “Jessica, do you want to meet Gary?”Instead of answering Alice's question, Jessica remained silent. She then bowed her head and began trembling.“I will call him right now. He just left, so he will come back soon,” Alice added.“Is Gary really coming back?”“Yeah. He’s doing great this year. He has always get high grades on his test and he is popular school. He is just as smart as you are.” Alice praised Jessica in the hopes of changing her mind.“He didn’t want to see me. I tried to talk to him this year, but his maid always mistook me for a beggar and told me get lost.” Jessica spoke in
A woman in a janitor’s uniform rushed out of the tool room as Eliana and Charlotte left the restroom. The woman then pressed a fruit knife against Eliana’s neck. Eliana had no idea what was going on because it happened so quickly. She could not stop shaking when she felt the cold metal against her skin.Charlotte was so scared that she screamed. Then she immediately covered her mouth. After hearing her voice many people made their way to the restroom. However, no one dared to approach them, they all stood back and watched.Eliana grabbed the woman’s arm from behind as she wanted to wrestle her to the ground. She thanked Alice were forcing her to take so many taekwondo classes at this moment.However, the woman realized what Eliana was trying to do. She whispered in a husky voice, “Don’t do anything. I will slit your throat if you move one more time. By then your blood will flow like a water flower and you will die tragically.”The woman’s voice was so husky that it made Eliana feel li
Dominic saw Eliana the moment she walked into the room. He looked at her as if he could not take his eyes off her. Eliana shone like a star that was even more dazzling than the bright chandelier. Whenever he looked at her, his heart beat faster, and his palms sweat.Ever since Eliana entered the hall, Dominic had been looking at her. He watched her as she walked around the venue and to greet the guests and he was disappointed when he noticed that many young boys were looking at her as much as he was.Later on, the host asked Eliana and Max to come on the stage. They sang the birthday song together and then catch the multi-tiered cake. Zayden then announced that the party was started.It was not until then that Eliana was free. When she saw him after she left the stage, Eliana moved quickly towards Dominic. Every step she took seemed to step into his heart, causing it to beat like a drum.Dominic had been waiting for Eliana to become an adult for the past two years, but she had no idea
After dinner, Eliana comes back to her apartment. She took a quick shower before going to bed. As she lay down in bed, she checked her phone and found tons of unread messages in the Team Wolf Chat Group. Eliana was supposed to join her teammates in celebrating their victory after the game, but she didn’t because her parents showed up unexpectedly.Eliana’s teammates not only posted pictures from dinner in the chat room, but they also mentioned for several times. Eliana was about to go to bed after replying to everyone's message, but the moment she discovered Dominic had also texted her, she perished her thoughts.Dominic had become extremely busy since he retired from the e-sports circle two years ago and returned to London to take over his family’s business. Recently, instead of having time to play games with her, he could only teach her practical strategies occasionally.Dominic returned to Rose City this time just to watch their game. However, Dominic and Eliana didn’t even have ti
After the game was over, the lights in the hall lit up and the host invited two teams onto the stage after congratulating the winners.Max and his parents took a seat in the first row. People around them began to whisper in surprise, and they only stopped when Team Wolf showed up on the stage.The stage was well-lit, but the auditorium was dark, so Eliana had no idea her parents, whom she had not seen in a long time, had arrived on the scene.Standing on this stage, Eliana smiled while waving at the audience. She sparkled like a diamond and nothing seemed to be able to dim her light.Meanwhile, Alice looked at Eliana as if she was her biggest fire. She felt proud of Eliana from the bottom of her heart.Initially, Alice was furious when she learned that Eliana wanted to become an e-sports player. However, she began to regret it after Eliana became a world champion. ‘If I stopped her back, then I would have stopped her from succeeding. Thank goodness I didn’t do so. Alice thought to her
Two years later, an important match took place in a hall in the center of Rose City. Eliana’s team, the Wolfs would play against a team from another country.Teen Wolf had previously won the world championship twice while their opponent was a dark horse team that had only recently formed. As a result, game lovers from both countries eagerly anticipated this match.At the same time, this was the most crucial match for Eliana since she joined Team Wolf two years ago. She would be a member of the world championship team if she won the game. However, she would lose her best chance to win the World Championship if she lost it. Therefore, Eliana took this match very seriously.Because the Dream High Group was one of the match sponsors, the live room was packed with people Eliana knew. Although ticker prizes had risen to several thousand dollars per person, Max could still obtain tickets for his family.At that moment, Trevor, Maggie, and their children sat in the center of the front row. Da
Henry was very efficient. Two days later, he managed to place the information he had gathered about Dominic on Max’s desk.Then Max started reading it carefully.Dominic Deleon was Dominic's full name. He was born and grew up in London, and he was twenty years old. His great-grandfather was a politician who once held a high govt position. His grandfather was a successful businessman who owned a large corporation. As for his father, he was a businessman who made the company well.Dominic was the family’s only child, but he was uninterested in business. He fell in love with e-sports in college and soon signed up with an E-sports company. Later, he made it to one of the best teams in the country and was named captain due to his outstanding performance. He once led his team to a world championship victory.Before moving to Rose City Dominic attended a university in London. However after he fell out with his parents, he transferred to a college in Rose City because several of his teammates
“Do you really want to know about it?” Dominic asked after some thought.“Yes!” Eliana said.“I might tell you after we get to know each other better. But, you know, we are not even friends now,” He said.“Well, I’m not interested in that anymore.” Eliana said. She became impatient, so she stopped talking to Dominic.“Are you angry?” Dominic asked.“No.”“I know you won’t get angry that easily.”“That’s because I know getting angry easily is bad for my health. It’s nothing to do with you.”Hearing Eliana’s words, Dominic burst out laughing. He knew Eliana loved sashimi, so he gave her that plate. “Well, we are friends now,” he said.At that time, Charlotte was talking to Kevin and Max was talking to Jason. On the other hand, Max kept a close eye on Dominic and paid attention to his every move.Dominic quickly realized this, so he turned to look at Max. The two boys then locked their gaze on each other. Max appeared weary and hostile whereas Dominic didn’t seem to be bothered by Max’s
Alice nearly fell on her knees and then stood up straight with all her strength. Seeing that Zayden was in more pain. He wanted to rush to Alice and help her out of the situation at that moment, but he had to wait for the right time. Therefore, he stood in the crowd, silent.“I’m just a doctor. I’m not that capable enough to defeat mercenaries.” Alice said, through gritted teeth.Hearing that Victoria kicked her once more. “Are you trying to fool me? I’m sure you know some special forces! Isn’t Adrian Taylor is your brother-in-law.”Alice let out a painful groan. She took a deep breath and said, “I had no idea you know it. But sadly, none of them in Flesoil.”“That’s fine. I can wait! They will agree to my request, as long as you are my hostage.”Zayden’s gun was in his pocket, but he didn’t have the guts to touch it.At that time, Victoria’s gun remain pressed against Alice’s temple, making him nervous. His hands were sweating, and he was even more nervous than he had when he saved E
