Emila Becker...

It really had been so long since he had heard of this name.

"Don't you dare mention her in front of me!" Christopher flung Carolyn's arm with a swing. Carolyn's face was red from the anger, "You're never at home every day. Have you already forgotten exactly whose woman you are, huh?"

Christopher spoke on as he gave Adrien a glance angrily. Adrien smoked his cigarette lazily. When Christopher looked over at him, he even flashed a mocking smile back at Christopher. It seemed like a provocation.

This smile further triggered Christopher, yet he had no guts to challenge this man. He only pulled hard at Carolyn's hands, trying to drag her outside, "Let's go, come home with me right now!"

"What are you doing?" Let go of me. Mr. Becker, you wuss. Let go of me. I haven't had enough fun. Let go!" Carolyn struggled with all her might.

However, just as she broke free from Christopher's hand, Christopher suddenly gave her a backhanded slap. The clear sound of the slap swiftly

    Just when Carolyn was cursing enthusiastically, the sound of glass cracking suddenly went off. Shockingly, Adrien had crushed the wine glass with his bare hands. Carolyn's expression changed drastically. She immediately grabbed his still-bleeding hand and said anxiously, "Ah, Mr. Tanner! What happened to you? Why are you so clumsy?"Saying this, she hurriedly let the bodyguards fetch the first aid kit. Adrien, with a cold glare, stared at her but, with a smile on his face, said, "It's fine. I merely just felt a little furious.""Furious?" Carolyn looked at him, puzzled, "What are you furious for?"Adrien suddenly, with soft movements, caressed her shoulder and said, "You were clearly so nice. Back then, Christopher had gone beyond his league in pursuing you. How could he treat you like this?"Carolyn's face was red from his praises. The anger in her heart was immediately swept away and replaced with a glint of a secret delight. Anthony watched Adrien's movements thoughtfully. A gli

    "Don't ever come back here in the future," Kisa's figure froze, but she did not look at Mia. Instead, she looked at the pale-faced man on the bed.It was so long ago that she had not heard his gentle voice. As she recalled the image of him smiling, her heart hurt deeply."I'm sorry..." Kisa agonizingly said those two words, but Jensen did not hear them.With a cold expression, Mia said, " Jensen is already in this state. What use is an apology now? If you have just a sliver of affection and a bit of guilt for him, then from now on, don't bring that man here to mock him. How much you both love each other is your business. Just don't come back here ever again."Kisa pursed her lips as her heart filled with guilt and regret. Gilbert held her hand tightly and glanced at the unconscious Jensen with a complicated gaze. Thinking of the scene that day, his heart was also filled with guilt.He told Mia, "If you want to blame someone, blame me. All of this has nothing to do with her."Mia

    Kisa's unusual behavior and forceful pandering those few days, Gilbert initially did not want to think too deeply about it. Yet seeing her looking so distraught now, he could not help but think more about it. He was the one who had caused the accident, after all. Did Kisa really not blame him, even a little bit? Her 'forgiveness' really made him feel strange. Hearing Gilbert ask that question, Kisa slowly withheld her sorrowful emotions.She took a deep breath. When she turned around to look at Gilbert, her expression was much calmer. She spoke to him,"What's there to blame you for? It was an accident. No one wanted it to happen."Kisa's excuse was so flimsy that it made her statement unconvincing. Gilbert lowered his gaze and did not dare to think too deeply of it. He merely said to her, "It's good that you don't blame me.""Come on. Let's go home," Kisa said and held his hand voluntarily. However, Gilbert did not move. She turned her head to look at him in confusion, "What's wro

    Kisa's sense had not returned as her body was folded into his broad and sturdy embrace. Gilbert coldly looks at Shaun, "An assistant would dare to hit their CEO? From what I see, you don't wish to work here anymore."Like I care. It's better than seeing the both of you cheating bastards all day, " Shaun said while he slammed his work card on the conference table harshly.Gilbert immediately squinted his eyes dangerously at him. Feeling the chill emanating from his body, Kisa hurriedly shook his arm."It's fine. Don't argue with a mere assistant. If he doesn't want to work, then leave him be. It's not like we're lacking any talent in this company."Shaun glared at Kisa with a cold smile, "My boss must really be blind. He even risked his life to save such an ungrateful creature such as you."Kisa scrunched her brows and asked in confusion, "Risk his life to save me? When?"Jensen did save her many times, but it seemed that he never once required him to endanger his life. Yet seeing

    'Men do not know how to control themselves these days. They keep asking for so much. Has this man never touched a woman before? He's acting like he just got out of solitary confinement,' Kisa thought.In a daze, the man had already undone her bra. Suddenly, Kisa remembered something and hurriedly pushed the man away. "Wait, wait, wait," she sat up and said."What are we waiting for?" Gilbert replied with a hoarse voice, his dark eyes locked on Kisa.He then saw the woman reaching for the drawer of the coffee table. More than half of her body was still under him; she struggled to stretch her hand out. She held onto the drawer handle and opened it with great effort. Kisa reached into the drawer and pulled out a small white see-through bag.With only a glance, Gilbert could already see its contents clearly. He could not help but frown. "You want me to put this on?" he asked.Kisa handed him an unopened box of condoms."You have to put it on every time we do it in the future, underst

    Gilbert was a little uncomfortable with Kisa teasing him. He clenched his hands tightly, staring intensely at her. He never knew that she was so good at flirting, which awakened sexual urges in him. He grabbed her by the shoulders, and his hands tightened. His grip then loosened and tightened, over and over. He tried to push her away several times but could not bear it."Aren't two children enough? How many more do you want?" The woman deliberately whispered in his ear. "Well, I can afford it. And there's no such thing as having too many children. Why can't I have more?" he said, gritting his teeth and grabbing her slender waist.Suddenly, Kisa laughed seductively, "I couldn't tell that you liked having children." Although there was a smile on her face, cold irony filled her heart. 'He's so rich that he doesn't mind having more children, but he could not tolerate the child in my womb in the past. I will never conceive a child with him ever again,' she thought.Gilbert's whole body t

    Kisa was caught off guard for a moment and was pushed to the ground by Gilbert. He looked at her and saw that there were tears in her eyes. The corner of her lips curled upwards due to self-mockery. "I see. You've started to detest me in just a few days. I guess I was being too cheap. I knew you didn't like me, but I still tried to get you back through sex.""It's not like that..." Gilbert stared at Kisa helplessly. For a moment, he was angry and did not know how to calmly talk to her about it anymore.'This woman has really changed these past few days; her words had become rather weird. She is always trying to figure out all kinds of malicious conjectures about me.' he thought."I'll go back to the Kooper residence tonight so you can get some rest," he sighed softly and said in a low voice to the woman who was still sitting on the ground. He could feel the awkward tension between them. He was scared that they would start to argue more and more if they stayed together in the same ro

    Kisa thought that Gilbert had gotten mad and left. She was worrying about how to coax him, but it turned out that he was still reluctant to part with this game of love. She had a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold.The next day, Kisa went to the set early in the morning. When she woke up, she sent Gilbert a good morning textHowever, the man did not reply to her message even after she got onto the set.'I don't know if he's mad at me or if he's just ignoring me on purpose. Has he lost interest in me? Has he lost patience with me?' Kisa did not think much about it. Since Gilbert did not directly leave the vicinity of her apartment last night, it showed that he still wanted to continue this relationship with her."Someone here thinks that just because she is the wife of GK Pictures's CEO, she can be absent from work, causing the filming of our show to be postponed again and again. She has nothing to be afraid of as the CEO's wife. However, our hard work cannot be overlooked."

    In a small town in the South, a gentle breeze caressed the cheeks of passersby, creating a pleasant and serene atmosphere. This town, known for its tourism, was adorned with flowers even in its narrow alleys. The surrounding houses were all quaint inns, exuding a poetic and picturesque charm.Beneath an arching bridge, Kisa set up an easel to display and sell her paintings. She had always loved painting since childhood. Although she had not achieved great success in this field, her vivid and evocative paintings were very popular with tourists. She would sell most of her paintings every day.On weekends, Blake would join her at the stall, but today was Wednesday, and she was alone. After arranging her paintings, she had barely sat down when people began to gather around. Some admired her art, while others immediately offered to buy. Her paintings were reasonably priced, which attracted many customers."Miss, I'd like that painting of the snow-covered rose garden at night.""Alright,

    In the backyard, Kohen looked at his older brother's calm expression, a hint of worry in his voice. "Bro, are you alright?""I'm fine," Hayes said, adjusting the blanket on his lap. "Tomorrow, take me to meet those medical geniuses you found.""Oh, sure..." Kohen nodded in agreement, but after a moment, he could not help but ask, "Bro, what did that woman say to you that made you change your mind so suddenly?"Hayes gazed at the stars in the sky, his voice cool and distant. "She told me she's doing well, very happy. Then she pointed out how pitiful and miserable I am right now. She asked me if I don't feel envious, knowing how well she is doing compared to me."Kohen grimaced, realizing that the woman had provoked his brother into action.Hayes lowered his eyes, a faint smile on his face. "That's right. How could I not be envious? So, I want to heal my legs, live a good life, and show her that I can do better than her."Kohen felt a pang of sympathy for his brother. From Hayes's

    Mentioning Hayes, Eylul's expression became complex. "Hayes is reclusive and doesn't like to see people. Only a single old servant has been taking care of him all these years. I only met him once, back when I married Kohen."Mia's heart ached, recalling the enigmatic yet deeply emotional man. She could not help but feel a lump in her throat. "How's his health?" Mia asked.Eylul replied, "His health is fine, but his legs have remained the same. Kohen has found top orthopedic experts for him and even sought out Kelvin Hoover from Calthon, but he refuses treatment. For so many years, he hasn't even stepped outside the backyard.""You mean he's been living in the backyard all this time?" Jensen asked gravely.Eylul nodded. "Yes, Kohen wanted him to live in the main house, but he refused. He only likes staying in the backyard. Moreover, the room he stays in used to be..." Eylul glanced at Mia. She had heard that Mia used to live in that room.With a complicated expression, Mia pursed h

    "Let's forget everything that just happened,' Mia said.Jensen looked up at her. In the moonlight, his eyes were deep and complex, profound and unfathomable.Mia tried to muster a smile. "You don't have to feel burdened. In a way, I forced you. And you must have always disliked me. Actually, I didn't come to you for money; I just wanted to see you. Now that I have, I should go. Jensen, from now on... take care."With that, she walked away, fearing that if she lingered any longer, she would not be able to leave. But after only a few steps, she was embraced from behind.Jensen's voice was low and hoarse. "Stay with me."Mia trembled at his words. Jensen continued. "But I still have so many things to do and someone in my heart I can't let go of. I don't know... when I will be able to give you a satisfactory answer. If you don't want to stay with me without any promises or guarantees, you can—""I'm willing," Mia blurted out, "as long as I can be with you, I don't care about anything

    Mia's face changed instantly. " You... you know I like Jensen, why would you...""Heh, if you like Jensen, shouldn't you be willing to do anything for him? If you can't even do this, how can you claim to love him?""I won't do it! Doing this would be betraying Jensen. I would risk my life for him, but I can't do this."Adrien stared at her flushed face and gently chuckled, his words loaded with meaning. "Aren't you feeling all hot and bothered yet?"Mia frowned. Her body was indeed getting hotter and more agitated. 'Why would Adrien ask this? Could it be the drink...?'As the thought crossed her mind, her heart sank. Seeing Adrien's cold expression and the man's playful smile, Mia turned and ran. But before she could take more than a few steps, she was dragged back. Weakened by the drink, her desperate struggles were futile. As the man pressed her down, playing with her like a toy, she closed her eyes in despair. She thought she could never face Jensen again. With a bitter laugh,

    Adrien Tanner, Jensen's father, stood before Mia with a warm smile. "My son is truly awkward when it comes to matters of the heart. He's even willing to refuse such a beautiful young woman like you."Mia stared at him, her tears suddenly streaming down her face. "I only wanted to see him, even if it was to face rejection. Wouldn't it better to say it clearly to my face?""Yes, it would." Adrien agreed. "But standing here stubbornly won't help, because he left on a business trip a couple of days ago."Mia's heart ached even more, realizing that Jensen had avoided using the front door just to evade her.Adrien continued. "I have a way to make him come to you willingly, but it depends on whether you're willing to cooperate."Mia nodded. "What do I have to do?"Adrien motioned to his bodyguard, who handed him a glass of wine. "Drink this," he said.Mia furrowed her brow, hesitant.Adrien gently patted her shoulder, like a father would."Don't be afraid. I won't harm you. From the

    Filled with guilt, Mia stepped forward, but Kohen suddenly pulled out a handgun and aimed it at her."Get out!"Jensen pulled Mia back. He looked at the cold man before him. It was this man who had taken him in years ago. At that time, Kohen was young, a carefree and privileged young man. Now, he seemed to have grown up all at once, his eyes colder and more distant.Jensen said with a troubled expression, "If you ever need me in the future, don't hesitate to find me."Kohen sneered coldly; pain etched in his brow. He mocked himself. "I never should have taken you in back then. In the end, it was I who harmed my own brother."Jensen pursed his lips, not knowing what to say, only feeling an unbearable pain in his heart. It was the first time he felt he owed someone. That sense of indebtedness suffocated him."Get out, and don't let me see you two ever again."On that night, Jensen and Mia left the McCray family. As a result of Hayes's ordeal, the McCray family underwent tremendous

    "What on earth happened?"Jensen did not speak. Mia choked out. "The collaboration between the Burton family and the McCray family was a trap. We were ambushed by the Burton family, and Hayes... he was hit by a car trying to save us.""Damn it!" Kohen cursed under his breath, abruptly pulling a knife from a nearby bodyguard and pointing it at them. "What are your lives worth? Why would my brother save you? Why?"Mia bit her lip, tears streaming down her face. 'It's my fault. I wanted to save Jensen, but I should have gone alone. I shouldn't have dragged Hayes into this. He seemed cold-blooded and heartless, and I never thought that he would risk his life for me. Why was he so good to me?'"Kohen..."Suddenly, a weak cry rang out. Hayes had awakened.Kohen hurriedly moved closer, gripping Hayes's hand. "Bro!"Hayes's face was deathly pale. He did not look at Kohen, but instead turned his gaze to Mia. His eyes were calm. He saw Mia's red-rimmed eyes and the tears lingering there,

    Hayes was sent flying by the car, his body crashing into a wall before bouncing back.Mia's entire body felt ice-cold as she trembled, yelling, "Hayes!""Kill them all!" A hoarse, aged voice suddenly rang out from the entrance. It was Curtis. He looked at Kendall's lifeless body on the ground, his eyes filled with rage, shouting, "Run them over! I want them to join my grandson in death!""Ah!" Jensen roared, disregarding the guards' swinging knives, and like a madman, charged at Curtis. Curtis's face changed, desperately pulling a nearby guard in front of him as a shield. But it was useless. Jensen, like a crazed beast, attacked anyone in his path. Soon, his knife was held against Curtis's throat.Curtis trembled all over. "Wh-What do you want?"Jensen, covered in blood with splatters on his face, looked like a demon that had emerged from a battleground. He grabbed Curtis and held him hostage in front of him. "Let us go!""Don't even think about it!" Curtis retorted angrily. "You
