"Josephine, what are we gonna do? What should we do?" Charlotte looked at the closed iron gate, sitting on the ground and cried sadly. Her heartbreaking cry was very abrupt in this quiet community. Josephine stood silently beside Charlotte. Looking at her crying mother, she silently digested the confusion and resentment in her heart. She had just been dragged out in front of so many people by James. The unprecedented shame made her even forget to make a sound. Her family's company was gone. Her home now belonged to others. Her father was arrested. She didn't even know how many years he'd be sentenced to. As for her... She was so down and out that that no advertisers or production companies want to invite her. Heh... She suddenly fell from the peak to the bottom. This was a huge gap that she couldn't stand. She really couldn't. Looking at her mother, who was sitting on the ground like a crazy child, kicking her legs and crying loudly, her heart was as pain
Until they got into the car and went back to South Lake, Elizabeth still felt as if she had just had a dream. She twisted her leg slightly. After she really felt the pain, she breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slowly and softly. It's not a dream! She couldn't help but recall what had happened just now. What he said and did to her made her feel shy and guilty. She didn't dare to look at him at all. When the car was not far away from the community, Samuel answered a phone call and hung up after answering a few "yes". Then he turned back and said to James, "President, Anna said that she has done her work, and she is on her way back to the company." "All right." James nodded. "Then let's go to the company first." "Okay." ...... Half an hour later, the car stopped outside the Lu Enterprises building. Almost as soon as they stopped, a woman in a professional suit came over. James opened the window and nodded slightly at her.
The car had been driving for a long time, and Elizabeth was still in shock. Did he just say that he wanted to go to the back mountain? That was right. Just now, when she knew that she had taken back the villa left by her parents, she couldn't wait to go to her parents to plead guilty. But now, when the content of the confirmation told her that Liang Company had returned to her hands, she was so happy that she didn't want to wait for more than a second. However, how could he know where she wanted to go now? Moreover, how did Samuel and he know where the back mountain of the Liang family was? After hesitating for a long time, she suppressed the surprise in her heart and asked softly, "James... How do you... know I want to go there?" Hearing this, James smiled and asked her in an enigmatic way, "Have I told you that?" She looked at him in confusion, "What?" "In fact..." he said mysteriously, "I have a hidden identity..." "Huh?" "
The words, "thank you", were all taken back by her when she saw his calm and tired face. He didn't want her to say it again on purpose, nor did he do it for anything else. He just fell asleep because he was too tired. Samuel glanced through the rearview mirror and gave a light cough, "Young Madam, let President sleep. He's really tired these two days." Thinking of the way to Liang estate, Samuel said that he had only slept for two hours in the past two days. Elizabeth nodded, but she still looked at James's face. Perhaps it was because of the sleeping posture that made him feel uncomfortable. His eyebrows were still slightly furrowed. He must be too tired. He suddenly fell asleep on the seat. Although his sleeping posture was not very comfortable, in such a short time, he even snored softly. Elizabeth didn't think that it would reduce his perfect image. On the contrary, she felt that he made her feel more real and distressed. Looking at t
"Well..." Samuel scratched his head. While waiting for the traffic light, he turned around to look at James who was sleeping, and then said with embarrassment. "I think we'd better go to the back mountain." "Not today. Please just send us home." "Young Madam... Well, I'm not trying to go against you. But Mr. Lu just asked me to drive you there. If we go back to the South Lake..." President would definitely be angry with him. "He's so tired. I want him to go home and have a rest early. We can go to the back mountain another day." "That's also what I want. But you also know his temper. If he didn't want to go, he would have gone home long ago. How could he ask to send you to the back mountain by himself?" Elizabeth looked at his hand and knew that Samuel was right. If he really didn't want to go, how could he go with her in exhaustion? But even so, she still said, "Just do as I said." After that, she thought for a moment and added, "If he's really angr
"Yes." The man nodded. Then he put down the firewood on his back, and even took a step forward. Seeing this, Elizabeth's heart jolted. She immediately stepped back. While backing away, she said in a panic, "Don't... Don't come over!" She really shouldn't have done this today! If she didn't come here or came with Samuel, she wouldn't be as flustered and helpless as she was now. She thought so in her heart, but she did not give up. While she was stepping back, she suppressed the fear in her heart and looked at her side quietly to see if there was anything that could be used for self-defense. However, aside from the lush weeds, there was nothing else that could be used for defense. Looking at the tall man in front of her, Elizabeth knew very well that even if she wanted to escape, she couldn't run away at all. She wanted to call for help too, but she didn't dare call directly in front of the man. If she put the phone behind her back, she couldn't make a
From the cabin to the top of the mountain, the dense weeds were shoveled by Abram. So there was a relatively wide path here. With the gratitude and touching for James and the excitement to see her parents soon, Elizabeth walked quickly to the top of the mountain accompanied by Abram. As they approached, Abram stopped following her and said, "Young Madam, I'll wait for you here." "Okay," Elizabeth replied with a smile because of his carefulness. She suddenly thought of coming over today, so she didn't buy anything. She stood in front of her parents' graves with nothing in her hand. For a moment, her eyes were filled with tears. But even so, she still smiled. After looking at the two photos in front of her for a long time, she said softly— "Dad, mom! I'm here today... I want to tell you that I got back everything you left. Are you happy?" "I'm sorry! I was so stupid and naive before. I must have worried you a lot before, right? I've let you
James was awakened by the sound of Samuel answering the phone. He moved his stiff neck and looked at the source of the voice in a daze. After listening for a moment, he probably knew that Samuel was talking about work. He habitually raised his wrist to check the time. It was 7:10 p.m. Had he slept for such a long time? He looked at the scenery outside the window. After a while, he realized where he was. He looked back at the place next to him and found no one was there. "Where is she?" Samuel, who was answering the phone, turned around and asked, "President, are you awake?" James did not answer, and ignored that he was on the phone. He asked again, "I ask you, where is she?" Samuel said to the phone, "Sorry, I'll call you later." Then he hung up the phone. "Young Madam went up the mountain." Hearing this, James frowned, and felt some displeasure. "Why didn't you wake me up just now?" He had gone to that place once
