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
"He's your cousin! You ruined his life, and you made him live a worse life than death. You're really... too bad." James took a deep breath and said with red eyes, "I knew he was my cousin, so I stopped. How many times do I have to tell you so that you can believe me? If I am really so bad, I wouldn't feel so guilty and uncomfortable." He wiped his face and added, "Yeah, maybe I look very calm on the surface, but do I have to tell everyone about my guilt and self-blame? Yeah, maybe his life was really changed because of my mistake, but do you think I am not sad?" When he learned that Xavier couldn't get married because of that matter, he blamed himself even more. But what could he do? He couldn't do anything. He wanted to cheat himself and continue to live his own life, but it seemed that she didn't want to give him such a chance. Although she couldn't accept this matter for the time-being, how could she say those words to him? Hearing this, Elizabeth felt
