“Both tires are blown out! What should we do?” Rio exclaimed in distress.Hector’s car was parked not far from Dimas’ car. Rio's loud voice echoed in the spacious underground parking lot, and both Hector and Harmonia heard everything loud and clear. Hector didn't intend to pay attention to them. He looked at Harmonia and urged her, “Monia, get in the car quickly. It’s late. You should go home and rest.”Harmonia nodded, but her movement to get into the car subconsciously slowed down. Did the tires really get blown out?At this moment, a hand grabbed the car door. He looked at Harmonia, who was about to get into the car, and squinted his deep eyes, “My car tires are blown out. I can't go back. Can I hitch a ride from you?” ‘Young lady.’ As his words fell, he specifically used his lips to mouth the words ‘young lady’ at her. Harmonia blinked her bright eyes.“Mr. Martinez, do you only have one car?” Hector obviously didn't want him to get in the car.“My venture capital inve
“Are you hungry? Wait for me.”Before Harmonia could react, Dimas reached out his hand and pressed the button to lower the baffle without even looking at it. Harmonia was speechless. Was this what you called your first time in a Rolls-Royce?Dimas smiled faintly and even more meaningfully. Just when Hector was about to lose his temper, Dimas’ steady and powerful voice sounded, “Mr. Marsh, please stop at the intersection ahead.” Hector was furious. He remained silent, stepped on the accelerator, and stopped the car when he reached the intersection. Dimas opened the car door without hesitation, bid them farewell, and left directly. Harmonia was stunned. His words from earlier kept replaying in her mind. ‘Are you hungry? Wait for me.’Harmonia was somewhat confused and frowned. Indeed, her stomach was empty. She was really hungry, but why did he ask her to wait for him?-After returning to Heron Bay Villa, the vehicle stopped, and they got out one after the other. Hect
Harmonia bit her lower lip. As her clenched hands relaxed, she lowered her gaze and nodded stiffly. The word ‘okay’ which felt like a lump in her throat also sounded rather awkward. Hector heaved a sigh of relief after receiving Harmonia’s answer. “I will find a way to get the Grand Blue Pearl.”Harmonia was puzzled for a moment and could not help but feel doubtful. Did Hector know of the whereabouts of the Grand Blue Pearl?“Monia, you have to keep your promise.”Hector held her hand tightly, and as he let go, he said ‘Goodnight’ to her.“Goodnight, Hector.”-It was destined to be a restless night. The executives of Terran Construction returned home one after another only to be greeted by a gift package that had just been delivered. When the ‘gift package’ was opened, for some, it was a pleasant surprise, but for others, it was a bomb!Absalom’s confidants panicked immediately. They had been in this tricky business world for so long, so it was impossible for them not to
“I’m downstairs.”Harmonia subconsciously looked toward the direction of the balcony door. She pulled a corner of the curtain back and saw the towering figure standing under the streetlight.She decided to pretend as if she hadn’t seen the message. Perhaps he would leave after a while.However, he was still standing downstairs after fifteen minutes had passed. He was still there even after half an hour had passed.Why hadn’t he left yet?!Harmonia kept pressing the remote control and changing channels, but her gaze remained fixed on the direction of the balcony.Another ten minutes passed. Had he left? After struggling internally for a moment, Harmonia decided to sneak a glance.Sure enough, he still hadn’t left!At that moment, the voice from the television sounded: ‘The temperature in Nilus City has dropped sharply tonight, and the first wave of cold breeze with rain is coming! Nilus City Metrological Department has issued a cold wave warning.’Harmonia’s grip on the c
His tall figure blocked the bright light from the roof of the car, and he held her chin with his slender fingers before he leaned down to kiss her lips.Her eyes were dim, and her gaze was hazy as she fell deeply into his eyes, which looked as profound as the galaxy and as deep as the sea as it shone quietly.The intense scent of agarwood enveloped her, carrying a unique hormone scent, almost as if it wanted to devour her, wrapping her entirely.The lights in the car dimmed at some point.His husky voice echoed in her ear, “What’s mine is yours.”“Young lady, you said those words yourself.”Harmonia blinked, and her long and curled eyelashes fluttered. In her drunken state, she could not understand the meaning of Dimas’ two sentences.A drunk person always sought more alcohol, and Harmonia was no exception.“Beer…”“I just gave you some.” He curled his lips and smiled evilly.“Liar!”She was furious.“Dimas is a jerk. He stole my drink, he lied to me, and even kissed me!
He refused to be convinced until he was faced with the grim reality. Dimas smiled again, and his calm and firm voice sounded, “Don’t think that I don’t know that you’re one of Micah’s men.”Hector’s expression underwent a dramatic change as soon as Dimas said these words. After Rio received news that his boss was drunk and could not drive, he rushed to Heron Bay Villa immediately without stopping. However, he did not expect to witness everything personally. He wanted to rush forward several times but was stopped by his boss's gaze. Otherwise, he would have drawn his pistol and protected his boss long ago.As Dimas put the pistol away, he walked past Hector and stopped in his tracks as he said coldly, “I won’t harm you for her sake. But if you harm her in the slightest, I will make sure that you suffer endlessly.” After saying that, Dimas walked away, preparing to leave, but Hector kept questioning him, “Are you trying to involve her in Dairkth’s disputes by doing this? Aren’
“I want this peace amulet!” The woman said arrogantly, then took out a black card from her Hermes bag. Harmonia looked at the arrogant and domineering woman, and she felt that she looked somewhat familiar. Harmonia felt as if she had seen her somewhere before. The saleswoman was caught off guard when she encountered such a situation. Although she had been trained for such unexpected situations before starting work, she had never encountered a situation like this before. “I’m sorry, Miss, but we have a first come, first serve policy at Jadice Haven. We have to make sure that these two customers aren’t buying it before we can sell this peace amulet to you,” The saleswoman hurriedly apologized embarrassedly. The woman was even more displeased upon hearing this. “How long have they been looking at it? If they wanted to buy it, they would have already bought it!” As she spoke, she glanced at Harmonia and Colton. “If you like something, you should buy it right away. What's the p
Yevee was stunned for a few seconds and said irritably, “What are you doing? Are you trying to rob me in broad daylight because you can't afford to buy the peace amulet?” “If I want to, I’ll take advantage of your body instead. What's the point of robbing your money?” A billionaire like her was not short of money.Yevee panicked for a moment and quickly covered her body with both hands. “What?! I'm not into that stuff! Stay away from me!”Harmonia looked at Yevee’s demeanor. She was so arrogant just a moment ago, but she seemed so helpless and weak now. Harmonia did not want to continue teasing her anymore. If she really scared Yevee, Shane would definitely come after her. That would be detrimental to her campaign for president of the Nilus City Chamber of Commerce.“The peace amulet you just bought is worth thirty thousand dollars, at most.”“All the items sold at Jadice Haven are all genuine. My dad personally said so. How could this be fake goods?” Yevee obviously did not
