Madelyn pushed open the door of the study and stood there very excitedly. She pushed the door with great force. The door hit the wall beside very heavily and then bounced back. Maxwell frowned, "What are you doing?" When Lucho heard the noise, he turned around. He was stunned when he saw his mother, "Mom, why did you come up?" Madelyn glared at Lucho before walking straight to the desk. With a face full of anger, she questioned Maxwell, "Maxwell, is what you just said true?" Hearing this, Maxwell became even more dissatisfied, and even his face darkened. "Did you... eavesdrop on us outside just now?" Lucho was naturally well aware of Maxwell's personality. He was anxious, so he pulled Madelyn and walked to the door, "Mom, didn't you say that the new delivered tea is very nice? Go down and make tea first. I'll come down after I talk to dad." Madelyn snorted coldly and shook off Lucho's hand without hesitation. "Shut up! I'll get even with you la
It was extremely quiet in the room. Maxwell looked at Madelyn, and then looked at his right hand which he had not put down. For a moment, he was stunned. He looked at Madelyn's face which had become red and swollen in an instant. His heart trembled and his somewhat dry lips quivered uncontrollably. His right hand was trembling violently. The pain in his palm became more and more intense, and he felt so painful all over in an instant. He obviously slapped her, but he seemed to have slapped his own heart. It had been so many years. This... was the first time that he had beaten her. Lucho opened his eyes wide. He looked at his father and mother in horror and was totally dumbfounded. The atmosphere was weird. He had seen Maxwell get angry and beat someone before. When Isaac was young, he didn't like Issac and always found fault with him. He remembered that he once broke an ancient vase that Maxwell liked very much. He deliberately broke it, but he
When Adele came out of Aria's house, it was almost noon. She really wanted to see Arvis. She wanted to hold him, talk to him and accompany him for a while. But after thinking about it, she gave up. When she left that day, Arvis was so sad. Even if she saw him, he would ask her to stay again. Otherwise... he would feel bad for a long time. So, it was better not to see him. Although she missed him and he also missed her very much, as long as they didn't meet, they wouldn't feel grieved about their separation again, would they? However, she did not know where to go. She didn't want to go back to Lone Oak Place. She had to go back, but she wouldn't go back immediately. As for other places... She got on a bus. Several years had passed, but the bus that led to that place had not changed. A few days ago, she had planned to go there, but she had been delayed because of those things. The villa of the Bai family was on the third ring road. Th
"Of course it's necessary!" Madelyn said excitedly and her face was filled with resentment. Lucho seemed to be in a bit of a dilemma. He stood in front of Madelyn and did not say a word. "Lucho, what qualification did the illegitimate b*stard have? Huh?" Madelyn grabbed Lucho's arm emotionally and looked at him with an anxious face, "When he was young, he came to this house to disgust me and I couldn't leave in peace because of him. I endured it for this family and you. But now, he actually wants to work in our company?" "What's more, is Maxwell qualified to treat me like this? He must think that he doesn't need anyone to help him now, so he has nothing to fear!" After that, Madelyn nodded as if she was bewitched, "Yeah! It must be like this! It must be! He doesn't need my family to help him anymore. He has had everything, so he doesn't respect me anymore. I'm old and my family has declined a lot, so, I'm nothing in his eyes." "Mom, it's not like that." Lu
Adele walked out of neighbourhood aimlessly. Her mind was blank and her heart was in a mess. If... she didn't come here that day, she wouldn't know anything. Since she didn't know anything, she wouldn't be so confused, would she? Madelyn and Lucho certainly didn't know that she was there, so they couldn't have said those words to her deliberately. After all, in their eyes, she was just a dead person who had died for nearly three years. How could a dead person come back to life? Even if... they knew that she was alive and was in Isaac's house, based on the conversation she had heard... If Isaac really wanted to work in Bai Company, it would be a threat to their interest. Madelyn and Lucho were so anxious. How could they be in the mood to lie to her? She knew what kind of person Madelyn was. Since Madelyn had the time, she might as well meet her in person. But... if what they said was true and they didn't lie... Did Isaac really like her?
"..." "I'm talking to you," Elroye frowned. He was somewhat unhappy because Adele was silent, "When others talk to you, you have to answer them. This is the most basic courtesy. Do you understand?" "I don't understand." Adele pursed her lips. Elroye was stunned for a while and didn't know what to say next. After a long while, Elroye finally thought of something to say, but he just said, "I'm asking you! You should be polite! Don't you know that I'm talking to you?" Adele was a little helpless. She raised her head and glanced at Elroye, "I remember... when I went to see you to solve my brother's problem, you asked us to get out immediately after you saw us." Elroye's eyes widened. He looked at Adele in disbelief. Adele said these words in a bland tone, but she really rendered him speechless. He exhaled heavily, and then deliberately coughed twice, "Did I? Are you sure? How come I don't remember it?" Adele curled her lips. Although she did
Elroye kept shaking his hands. His face twisted and he looked very funny. "D*mn! How can you really bite me?" He blew at his hand twice and said with grievances. He looked so wronged and no longer grinned or teased her. Adele looked at the teeth marks on Elroye's back, pursing her lips and saying nothing. Although she felt a little sorry for what she had done, she didn't think that she had done anything wrong. If Elroye didn't do that or say those words just now, she wouldn't have bitten him. He... asked for it. "Hey! Don't you know that I was kidding? Can't you even take a joke?" He exhaled heavily, "How can we be friends since you're so unfriendly?" Adele turned her head, "Mr. Elroye, goodbye." "Hey!" Seeing that she was really going to leave, Elroye couldn't care about his painful hand and grabbed her by the shoulder. As soon as he touched her shoulder, he thought of what had just happened and hurriedly withdrew his hand.
"Why did you bring me here?" Adele was very confused as she looked at the restaurant outside. "Don't worry." Elroye said as he unbuckled the seat belt, "It's not somewhere dangerous, and I won't hurt you." "..." Elroye curled his lips and got out of the car directly. He walked to the front passenger seat and waited for about half a minute, but Adele didn't get off the car. He scratched his hair and thought that she was so bad-tempered. She even wanted him to open the car door for her. But he didn't feel unhappy and opened the door directly, "Get out of the car." "..." "Alas!" Elroye felt a little helpless, "Didn't I say that I wouldn't do anything to you? Why don't you believe me?" Adele sneered and retorted sarcastically, "I don't think your words are reliable." "Is that so?" "Don't you think so?" "Alright." Elroye shrugged his shoulders, "I know you're angry. But it's noon now. Aren't you hungry? Come on. G
