Spenser carefully examined the photographs in the newspapers. His face turned pale as he recognized a few of the big shots on them.

His brother persisted in questioning him, “Hey! What on the earth are you doing? I have already told you that those small companies will not pose threats to us! So, you don’t have to make things difficult for them.”

Spencer then said, somewhat awkwardly, “I am sorry! I had no idea Alice knew so many famous people! Jessica told me that she was just Zayden’s ex-girlfriend. So, I thought she was just an ordinary woman.”

Surprised, Spencer’s brother looked at him and inquired, “Jessica? Are you still seeing that actress? Jesus Christ! Are you fucking insane?”

Spencer’s brother interrupted his defense by saying, “Spencer, you don’t come to work these days. You should reflect on what you have done!”

The man then exited the office, slamming the office door shut behind him.

Furious, Spencer ripped the newspaper into pieces and threw it in the trash can. At that m

    Adrian twitched his mouth and mumbled, “It’s turns out you brought me dinner. So, why didn’t you tell me sooner, Zayden? Geez!”With that, Adrian turned around and noticed a few dishes and a bowl of pasta on the table. Then, he was touched right away.It was getting darker and darker. The dark blue velvet night sky blended with the bustling Rose City, making the lights look as bright as the stars.As Alice stepped out of the bathroom, she noticed a man standing in her room.She then stopped and then thought to herself. Damn it! Why did I forget to lock the door?Alice was exhausted from her long day. She had been through too much and had thought about too many things. So, as soon as she walked into the bedroom, she went straight to the shower, forgetting to lock the door.Alarmed, Alice said, “Zayden! What are you doing in here?”Zayden was sitting on the sofa on the balcony at the time, holding a book called “A Brief History of Time.” It was the book Alice usually read before going t

    “So, you and Zayden are back together?” Maggie asked while she was on a video call with Alice. Maggie appeared to be in good spirits and was looking forward to hearing the big gossip from Alice.Zayden had moved into Alice’s bedroom since they had slept with each other that night.Since he didn’t have to go to work anymore, Zayden had more time to spend with Alice and drive her to pick her up from work daily. As a result, they were more intimate. Alice, however, was still unsure about their relationship.She couldn’t figure it out on her own and wanted to seek advice from others. Maggie, after all, was the only person who knew what was going on between them, which was why she turned to her for her help.“To be honest, I think that’s perfectly fine. You and Zayden are already back together, so you don’t have to worry about too much. His son is your son, and your daughter is his daughter. So, Alice stop overthinking it.” Maggie said patiently.Alice, on the other hand, appeared unsure.

    “What are you talking about? Rain was baffled by what Zayden was saying.Zayden didn’t say anything but looked at Alice, who was standing beside him.“Zayden is now the head of the finance department at Brown Group.” Getting the hint, Alice explained.Rain’s eyes widened as if she was skeptical of what Alice was saying.“Huh? That’s ridiculous! He is from the Dream High Group! How could he be our head of finance? Why did you take it upon yourself to make him this position? Do you take the board of directors seriously?”Alice said thoughtfully, “Yes, I took the board of directors seriously. But, you see, no one on the board seems to take me seriously. Besides, I wasn’t even going to make that decision on my own. Someone just had a temper tantrum at the meeting. At that point, I realized that I didn’t really need to meet with you guys to discuss this.”Rain’s face flushed with anger as she stomped her foot, “Damn it! Alice, my father is right, you are a jinx! Anyone who is near you will

    Most employees of the Brown Group got off work at five o’clock in the afternoon, and Alice also left the company at that time every day.Meanwhile, Zayden had noticed several issues with the company’s finances, so he offered to stay late and work.Alice knocked on the door to his office before leaving and smiled as she asked, “Zayden do you need me to stay with you?”Zayden was looking at his computer. When he saw her, he instantly felt less tired and more refreshed. He said, “You don’t have to do that. I will be home after I finish reading this.”Then Alice chuckled, “But I feel bad about this. Please allow me to give you a small raise.”Zayden narrowed his eyes, motioned toward her, and said, “But you don’t appear to be guilty. Come one in, Alice.”“I knew you would let me stay with you.”With a smile, Alice walked into the office and stood in front of his desk, leaning over to look him in the eyes.Just as Zayden finished his word, he held the back of Alice’s head and had her close

    Jones was an elderly man who had been through a lot and looked at Alice calmly and composedly.He said, “Since Zayden is deeply in love with you, he will certainly marry you. He and Sean, you see, have been feuding for a long time. You are a wise woman, so you can persuade them to reconcile. That way, Sean would welcome you.”“To be honest, I think you are overestimating me,” Alice said, frowning, “What makes you so certain that I can persuade them to reconcile with each other?”“I know Zayden is a cold person, but he would never do such a thing. They are at odds because they rarely communicate with one another. Everything will be fine if you let Zayden agree to explain what happened before to Sean.”Jones was correct. Alice was the only person who could persuade Zayden. However, he had no idea that Alice had already investigated what had happened three years ago and was as suspicious of Zayden as Sean was.Meanwhile, Alice was convinced that people changed. As for Zayden, he was like

    Alice was perplexed after hearing the truth that Adrian suddenly told her. She froze, and then lowered her head in thought for a moment and said, “To be honest, you can tell me about this later.”Adrian was at a loss for words. When he looked up, he noticed that Alice looked at him with a gentle smile.Adrian asked, “What? Did you already know about it?”Alice said while shaking her head, “I did, in a way, but I don’t know about those details. All I know is that you may have recovered your memories.”“What? Then, why did you…”Alice sighed and said, “Are you wondering why I am still acting as if I don’t know anything about you having back your memory? Well, that’s because I was the one who hit you. When I took you to the hospital, you were dressed so shabbily that I assumed that you were homeless. Besides, you are free to leave any time. So, you must have your reasons if you keep staying at my house.”Her words both moved and amused Adrian.“No, Alice, I am not a homeless person,” he

    Jason was dressed in a black suit, looking quite like Zayden. However, they appeared to be two completely different people. Jason seemed much friendlier than Zayden.Alice looked at him, but she sensed that his gentleness was deceptive.She said, “No, thanks. I need to return to the office and then place the order at the factory. It’s the only way I can repay the Star Group’s trust in us.”Jason said with a smile, “Oh, it seems that you really take your job very seriously. I have heard that my cousin now works for the Brown Group. Is that true? I didn’t expect that you had be able to persuade someone as conceited as him to work in a small company. He appears to be willing to do whatever you want him to.”Alice was irritated by Jason, who was speaking in such a strange tone. Impatiently, she said, “Okay, stop asking me any more questions. I think you had better to do what you have to do. Otherwise, you will be fired again, just like before.”Hearing that, Jason’s face darkened and his

    Adrian took a deep breath as if he couldn’t believe he had made the wrong decision.I will go to Leeds again and look into the matter,” he said after a brief pause.Alice turned to face him and said, “You already know that the more hurried you are, the more likely you are to make a mistake. Don’t miss a single detail.”Adrian was embarrassed and muttered, “Okay, I understand. This time, I will get to the bottom of it. Otherwise, my reputation will suffer.”“You mean, your reputation of being ‘The number one detective’ in your school?” Alice teased.Adrian blushed as he looked at Alice.His classmates had previously given him that nickname to tease him. He thought it was silly, so he told them never to call him that again. However, the more he protested the more they wanted to joke with him, and eventually even his teachers called him that.Adrian, on the other hand, wondered how Alice knew about it.Alice said with a smile, “To be honest, someone called you that just now on our way he

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.

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.
