Mulan looked at Elizabeth, and her eyes were blazing with flames of fury. She wanted to call Elizabeth and let her stay, but Lange stopped her. Lydia had learned about what the Wang family had done from John, so she treated Mulan and Lange with a bad attitude. She sat beside John with an indifferent face. John's face darkened, and he did not take the initiative to speak. Lange and Mulan sat there. Seeing that John and Lydia did not have any intention to speak, they were not in the mood to wait any longer. Lange said, "John, Mulan and I come here to ask you for a favor." As soon as he finished speaking, John nodded and said, "I know." Hearing this, Lange looked at Mulan, and their expressions eased a lot. He said, "So..." "But I think you may have come here in vain." John took Lydia's hand and said blandly, "I will not help you." Hearing this, Lange and Mulan, who had just relaxed a little, were both shocked. Lange was even furious.
Lange smiled awkwardly, "I know that Margot went too far. I am very angry and blame myself. In the final analysis, it is the fault of me and Mulan. We didn't educate her well. But I hope that you can be merciful after venting your anger and don't really hurt Margot." John raised his head and took a look at Lange, "We can't decide what will happen to her." In other words, it depended on the severity of her sins. Lange frowned slightly, but soon he laughed, "You're right. Mulan and I spoiled her too much. But..." He glanced at John and continued, "Margot has been punished. As for my company... Could you please stop James from doing that?" John drank his tea leisurely and said nothing. Lange felt a little embarrassed, but he had to go on, "The price of the shares of my company has dropped a lot, and everyone in the company is jittery. Moreover, a lot of partners suddenly said that they would terminate the contracts with me. If things go on like this, my compa
The driver in Lu Mansion sent Elizabeth back to South Lake. On her way back, James called her. Elizabeth didn't hide it from him and said that she wanted to go back. "Why do you want to go back?" James asked on the phone. "Jane told me that I have a package, so I'll go back and have a look." "A package?" Elizabeth nodded, "I don't know what it is either. I didn't buy anything online. Hey, did you buy anything for me?" James frowned and said, "Who would do shopping online? It's not me." After that, he asked confusedly, "Did someone send the package wrong?" "I don't know." Elizabeth shook her head. "Why do you have to go back just for an unknown thing? Isn't it better to rest at home if you have time? I'll be back soon." "I don't want to come back. I was going to continue to sleep, but Jane called me. Anyway, I'm free at home. I'm always very sleepy these days. If I continue to sleep like this, I'll become a pig." James he
Elizabeth looked at the photos in her hands and widened her eyes in disbelief. Her hands trembled slightly, and her face was full of surprise. Her heart was in a state of agitated confusion. She had seen all those photos, and she had seen them more than once. However, every time she looked at them, she felt more shocked and painful. She didn't want to believe what she had seen and didn't want to think about it at all. But the fact was right in front of her. No matter how much she refused to believe it, she had to accept it. There were not only photos... but also a recording pen. She knew she shouldn't have listened to it, but she couldn't help turning on the switch with her hand trembling. It was a cold male voice. She could tell who the man was when he said the first word. However, what he said shocked her even more. The photos in her hands fell to the ground with a crash and scattered beside her feet. Looking at the face of the person
Elizabeth closed her eyes. With a wry smile, she wanted to say something, but her heart was full of bitterness and she couldn't say anything. James took a deep breath, "What on earth is this?" Elizabeth opened her eyes, looked up at James, and said feebly, "Shouldn't you... ask yourself?" James shivered and took a step back with a dejected expression on his face. After a few seconds, he came to sense from the immense shock and panic. He stepped forward and grabbed Elizabeth's arm, "Who... gave you these things? Who did it?" Elizabeth bit her lip and just shook her head. She didn't know who sent it, and she didn't have the mood to care about it. She only knew that she was very helpless and confused. James put down his hand disconsolately and clenched it into a fist. However, although he did so, he couldn't control the panic and fear in his heart, as well as the fury. These things... Why did Elizabeth have these things? The face of the man
James looked at Elizabeth nervously, but expectantly. In a trembling voice, he said with uncertainty, "I mean... I didn't do it. Do you believe me?" Hearing this, Elizabeth slowly raised her eyes, looked at James bitterly and then smiled feebly, but the smile seemed to have exhausted all her strength. Then, she slowly opened her clenched fist, and turned on the switch of the recording pen in her hand. The next second, they heard a voice. "Mr. Lu, this matter is a little tricky to deal with. You..." Hearing this, James's face turned pale immediately. The pictures that he just picked up fell to the ground again and were scattered on the floor. But the voice in the recording pen didn't stop because of this, it could still be heard. "You want money, don't you? No problem! I'll give you another fifty thousand dollars." "You know the rules in our circle. You need to... pay half of the money first." "I know. Here are ten thousand dollars.
Elizabeth was silent for a long time before she said blandly, "I don't know." Her mind was in a mess and she didn't know what to do at all. James closed his eyes powerlessly, but he took a small step forward, bent down slightly and put his hands on Elizabeth's shoulders. Although he was flustered and disturbed, he managed to suppress his panic and said in a soft and eager tone, "Honey, believe me, okay? I didn't..." Elizabeth looked at him and then lowered her head, not wanting to see him anymore. "Honey, I know that you might be shocked and mad when you see these. I don't know why things have become like this." Elizabeth remained silent, but she smiled mockingly. "You..." Elizabeth raised her eyes, looked at James and said in a light tone, "Tell me. Did you meet those people in the photos?" James frowned, and then nodded with difficulty, "Yes." "So what else can you say for yourself?" Her tone was extremely indifferent, which mad
"Do you know why I did that?" He smiled helplessly and looked at Elizabeth, whose eyes were full of tears. "..." "At that time, Xavier was handsome and had good grades, and he was always polite to others. In a common expression, he was refined and courteous. My parents thought highly of him. Even when he was outside, people always praised him." "Since you've known that I used to like Zena, I won't hide anything from you. Zena fell in love with Xavier the first time she saw him. Later, she couldn't hide her love anymore. I thought she was good-looking and smart, and she cared about others. She was not as willful as other daughters in rich families." "In fact, maybe I didn't like her that much in the past. I fell in love with her just because of my narrow-mindedness and ridiculous jealousy." "After Xavier came to my house, my parents thought that he was so young, and he had no parents, so they cared about him more than me. In fact, I also felt that he was po
Time went by so quickly. In the blink of an eye, John was already sixty years old. He didn't like complicated things and didn't like to celebrate his birthday. However, Lydia insisted on holding a birthday party for him. Considering that he liked quiet atmosphere, Lydia didn't celebrate his birthday in style. She only invited some close friends. Benjamin and Isaac naturally went there. Arvis was already five years old. He was much more lively than a few years ago, but he was not particularly noisy. Adele was pregnant again. The child was less than five months old, but Isaac was very nervous and followed her everywhere. He was so careful that James and Benjamin couldn't stand him anymore. That day, James teased him, "Say, Isaac, why are you so cautious? Adele is not a porcelain doll. If you want to please her, you don't have to be so affected." Isaac handed a piece of apple to Adele. After she finished eating, he replied, "I love my wife.
John didn't expect that she would mention this matter on her own. He fell in love with her first and said that he wanted to get engaged to her, but she proposed to get married first. Was it even? However, he wasn't a strait-laced person. Besides, wasn't it a good thing that his beloved girl couldn't wait to marry him? If they got married, he could see her as soon as he got home from work, and she would accompany him for meals. If he worked at home, she would stay with him. When he woke up in the morning, he would see her sleeping face at once and say good morning to her. At night, they could sleep together. What a wonderful thing! They got married in early August. The wedding was very grand, and there were many guests. Almost everyone who had something to do with the Lu family and the Song family attended their wedding, and some even came from afar. The three floors in the most luxurious hotel in A City was filled to capacity. John would always
"Happy birthday to you!" She sang the birthday song softly. Her voice was dulcet and soft, and it was very pleasant to the ear. The candlelight on the cake flickered as she moved, and the fruit on the cake gleamed in the candlelight. As Lydia approached John step by step, he felt that he was going crazy. She preferred to wear dresses, but all her dresses were lovely. Sometimes, she wore like a read lady. But at this time... She wore a long black lace dress that only reached her bottom. It was so flimsy that he could see her underwear... Her bra and pants were red and sexy, which only covered the most important parts of her body... At this time, John was obsessed with her, and he was hot all over. He felt that all the blood in his body was boiling, and his head seemed to be a little dizzy. "John..." Lydia came to him and looked at him shyly. "Today is your birthday." He looked at her bright and affectionate eyes and couldn't help but
John's birthday was coming soon, and Lydia was very distressed, because she hadn't decided what to buy for him. It was in the dark ages of computing. There was a computer in her house, but the network was not very developed. Therefore, she only asked a few close friends about it. They told her that she could buy him tie, cuffs, and clothes, but she denied these ideas at once. John was born in a rich family. After he grew up, he became a very excellent businessman. He had received many expensive birthday gifts, let alone something like a tie. As his fiancee, she couldn't be perfunctory, could she? So, she went to the mall, but she didn't see anything she liked. It seemed that giving him a special and novel birthday gift was not easy. She didn't know how to make handwork or paint. She had learnt piano when she was young, but she gave up later. After thinking about it for a while, she suddenly felt that she was so stupid. Except for the fact that she co
With the permission of Lydia's parents, John travel with her abroad for a few days. After coming back, he hired someone to teach her at home. Lydia had a feeling of freshness at the beginning. After all, she used to attend classes at school. At this time, she could learn knowledge at home. Moreover, the teachers were very careful and very patient. However, the next day, she was not willing to study like this, so she went to find John. "Why?" John was puzzled, "Is it because they can't teach their lessons well enough? If that's the case, I'll change new teachers for you tomorrow." "No!" She kept waving her hand, "They are very good teachers and they're patient, but..." She looked at him cautiously and thought twice before speaking, "They are just too patient, and they take good care of me as if I'm a child. I feel... a little stressful." John was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled, "Is this the reason?" "Yeah." Lydia nodded, "But I am not a chil
Lydia really didn't go to school anymore. Although all the misunderstandings had been clarified, she didn't want to go to school again. On the second day after she went through formalities, Nina came to her and asked for her forgiveness. At that time, John was there, but later he found an excuse and went out. Lydia looked at Nina who had suddenly become much more haggard and sighed in heart. Why did Nina have to provoke her back then? "I'm sorry." Nina said softly. "Oh." Hearing this, Nina immediately got unhappy and glared at her with hatred, "Lydia, are you very smug now?" She was apologizing to Lydia, but Lydia actually replied to her so indifferently. Lydia shrugged her shoulders, "Do you think I'm smug now?" "I'm apologizing to you!" "I heard it. Didn't I answer you as well?" "You..." Nina sneered, "Is that your answer?" "What do you expect?" Lydia was puzzled, "How do you want me to answer you? Should I thank you w
Nina's voice came from the stereo around the playground. She had said a lot. There were so many people on the sports ground, but none of them spoke. They were all shocked and stunned. "As for what I said to Lydia, it was my prank. Actually, Lydia's fiance has nothing to do with me. I... just envied her for having such an excellent fiance and I was jealous. Therefore, I did that to her that day..." After she said this, the crowd, which had been quiet, suddenly burst into an uproar. "Oh my god! How could it be?" "I heard that she was very excited that day. She cried, knelt in front of Lydia and begged her. But she said it was a prank?" "She couldn't do that even if she wanted to prank on Lydia, could she? That is Lydia's fiance." "I don't think it's a prank. I was in the dormitory at that time and I saw it with my own eyes. Nina looked really sad. In my opinion, Lydia must have put pressure on Nina, so Nina has to do this." "Lydia's family
As soon as Lydia entered the school, she walked with her head down, because she was afraid of meeting acquaintances. Besides, with John holding her hand, she did not have to worry that she would fall down. After what had happened yesterday, she... had become quite well-known in school. "Lydia, look up." His voice was very soft, but she was somewhat pressurized. She gave him a resentful look, "Do you even want to force me to raise my head?" He chuckled, "Didn't you listen to my words carefully just now?" "Yeah." Lydia snorted, "But I came in here, didn't I?" She said, "You said those words indeed, and I think it makes sense, but... John, it's hard for me to do it, okay? I know I'm not wrong, but I'm very worried. You are not me, so you won't understand my mood." John sighed lightly and didn't know what to say at the moment. Although he didn't talk much in ordinary times, he did things in a decisive manner. Perhaps, he really had no way to
"John, you're here?" Nina ran into the house with great joy. Just now, she went out, but when she knew that he had come here, she rushed back, for fear that she would miss him. Fortunately, he had not left yet. Looking at John who was sitting in the living room, she was very happy, and her heart jumped very fast. John was very excellent, and she was infatuated with him. Although she had done such a thing, she didn't regret it at all. As long as she could be with him, she couldn't care about so much. That day... why on earth did he come here? Was it because Lydia couldn't stand it anymore and broke up with him? Had he found out how good she was? John raised his head and took a look at her. His eyes were very bland. When she was about to walk over, John stood up. He arranged his suit and said to her father, "I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer as I said. I hope to hear it tomorrow." Her father's face darkened, but he didn't dare to lose
