Chapter 100

Author: Cloud Drop
Elijah spoke bluntly. "Jacob, you're already divorced. Why are you still trying to get Liesel to go to Ford Manor with you? Just to please Mr. Ford Senior and put on a show?

"You're really possessive. You don't want her, but you don't let anyone else pursue her! Don't go too far!"

He straightforwardly let Jacob know he was pursuing Liesel.

Elijah was serious about Liesel. He was showering her with flowers and diamonds. Since he was rich, he had the time in the world to spend with Liesel. He was plotting his way into her life step by step.

Liesel's expression darkened. She hadn't anticipated things would escalate to this point.

Before she could hang up, Jacob snatched the phone from her hand. "Elijah, Liesel hasn't hit rock bottom to the point where she needs to consider you as her next partner. You aren't worthy of being her suitor."

Jacob's voice was cold. His words were clearly mocking Elijah's reckless past behavior.

Elijah scoffed. "No matter what, I'm still a hundred times

    The past would remain in the past. Liesel already knew that Jacob was just Jacob and not her husband anymore.In response to that, Elijah cocked an eyebrow. There was a smile on his lips. It was as if he was gloating at their misery.Jacob's gaze remained detached. It merely dimmed a little when he heard Liesel say that they were in the past. However, he knew that she wasn't wrong. Ever since the day they got divorced, they were indeed in the past.Liesel was destined to start a new life with a new person of her choice."Hearing you say that, I feel much more relieved," Elijah said with amusement evident in his voice."Mr. Ford, you also heard her. You and Liesel are completely in the past now, do you understand? I also hope you will stop getting in between us," he continued. It sounded like he was trying to intentionally provoke Jacob.Jacob's gaze didn't falter, but he gave Liesel a quick glance.Liesel looked down at the injury on her palm. "Elijah, there's nothing between

    In other words, the news had to be about the Sharp family.As soon as the word got out, the public dug up most of the incidents related to the Sharp family. A few children of wealthy families who had too much time on their hands even spoke up, mostly talking about how fake Jeffrey could be.Liesel counted several minutes in her head, and sure enough, Jeffrey called. She silently declined the call, put on her jacket, and left the room.Coincidentally, as soon as she left the room, Jeffrey called her again. The first thing he did was scream at her. "Were you behind what happened today? After working at Ford Corporation for so long, you must have a wide network. I'm certain that you're purposely trying to tear the Sharp family down! You little bastard, you're just like your worthless mother. You want to suck the Sharp family dry!"Liesel knew very well that the Sharp family only managed to reach where they were today because they'd drained her mother, Heather. She merely grunted coo

    Liesel hated having Sharp family blood. Jeffrey and Natalie were shameless, despicable people, but ultimately, it was still the Sharp family blood that flowed through her veins.If she could survive despite having all her blood drained, she was willing to pay any price to replace all the blood in her body. That was better than gagging every time she thought about the dirty, lowly blood in her system.She didn't think there was anything wrong with her. It was the Sharp family that was problematic, so what did it have to do with her? Still, she felt that the Sharps were truly disgusting. If she wanted to sever their ties, then she'd really have to be ruthless about it. However, she wasn't an idiot. She wouldn't actually hurt herself just to cut ties with them. To her, the Sharp family was not worth her hurting herself just to break off this already weak relationship.It was the first time Jeffrey had ever heard Liesel scream at him hysterically. It left him stunned for a moment, b

    Liesel lowered her voice. "If I continue to attack Sharp Group, do you think the company's stocks will continue to plummet? How many people do you think will sell their shares? The other families would also take this chance to attack Sharp Group or even acquire the company by force. "If that happened, would the company still belong to you? Perhaps, to be even more cruel, they could bankrupt Sharp Group outright."Naturally, Jeffrey believed her. She was indeed capable of destroying the entirety of Sharp Group. If this matter continued to fester, Sharp Group would really be destroyed in his hands.Still, 80 million dollars was not a small sum. Sharp Group wasn't that large of an enterprise, so how could he have that much money on hand?With a red face, he said with embarrassment, "I really don't have cash on hand. Why don't you give me some more time? I will definitely give you the money in two years."Liesel laughed coolly. "In two years? Would Sharp Group even be around in two y

    Having confirmed that the person who called her was Liesel, Quinn said, "You're right, it's difficult to discuss this over the phone. Do you have time tomorrow? Why don't we meet up to talk?""Since you proposed a meetup, I naturally won't refuse, Ms. Lambert." Liesel checked her schedule. "Shall we meet tomorrow at 3:00 pm at the Ford Corporation?"The reason Liesel suggested this location was to hint at her connections with the Ford Corporation. This was so that Quinn would think carefully when naming her price."I'm looking forward to meeting you, Ms. Sharp," Quinn replied.Someone who managed a huge company couldn't be an idiot, so of course Quinn knew the underlying meaning behind those words. Because of this, she also regarded Liesel with more importance. Liesel was one of the trump cards of the Ford Corporation; it would be foolish to look down on Liesel now.Since the beginning, Liesel had split the shares she'd received into two parts. Over the past few years, she'd kept

    Liesel stood up and approached him. Leaning down, she stared at him intently. Her eyes glinted like obsidian. "So long as you don't lend a hand to Sharp Group, then… what I did will have been useful."Gazing at him, she asked, "Jacob, will you help Jeffrey?"Would he help Jeffrey for Natalie's sake?Jacob paused for a moment. At last, he averted his gaze and said indifferently, "I won't get involved. This is between you and your father."This time, Natalie didn't suffer that much damage. The target of the attacks and mockery was Jeffrey. Perhaps Liesel was just getting revenge for what happened on Heather's death anniversary, so he didn't have a reason to stop her."I won't," he answered mildly.Liesel finally sighed in relief and broke into a grin.She was really pretty. Whether she was smiling gently or maintaining a poker face, she always gave off a strong aura. She also had very defined features. Even though she wasn't wearing makeup now, her smile made her eyes crinkle and

    Quinn gave Liesel a long stare that was deep and meaningful. Taking a trip down memory lane, she said, "Actually, when you were younger, I met you before." She cradled her arms and continued, "You were curled up in Jeffrey's arms like an adorable snowball. I'd always thought that Jeffrey treated you very well. Why do you hate him so much?"Liesel replied with a hint of sarcasm, "I thought you knew Jeffrey's true nature from the beginning, Ms. Lambert. He can be nice to me, but in the next second, he can also throw me, his biological daughter, into a fire pit. Jeffrey is just a selfish, self-serving bastard."Quinn was both taken aback and surprised. "You're really nothing like how you were before."Liesel tapped the table gently. She hadn't even touched the coffee on the table. She merely smiled and said, "If I was the same as before, I would have been trampled into the ground already."Quinn said nothing. Her background was a little unique. 20 years ago, she had been the young lad

    Quinn was astounded.Liesel bowed her head while stirring her coffee. The cold air in the room made Quinn's legs feel a little chilly.Noticing this, Liesel got up to adjust the thermostat. She leaned against the conference table and said, "Blood relation is not everything. As long as the love is genuine, you can be family even if you don't share any blood. "However, without love, even if you're connected by blood, you'll end up completely engulfed with nothing left behind."Liesel adjusted the air swing. Even when she came into contact with the cold air, she didn't find it chilly. Instead, she found it comfortable. "You've been in this industry for a very long time, Ms. Lambert. Don't tell me that you don't know much about these things. How many men have gotten rich and abandoned their wives and children, allowing their mistress to humiliate their family? "How many people have transferred their assets to their illegitimate children while abusing their biological children at t

    "How would you know that I also didn't have the same kind of thoughts when you secretly kissed me all those years ago?"You said that I was born in a tall tower, but I didn't get to choose my background. Meanwhile, you have climbed your way up to where I am to be with me."In ancient times, we would have been innocent and carefree childhood sweethearts. We would've been considered a match made in heaven."Edward, what I'm saying is the truth." Ophelia said each word solemnly. She stared unblinkingly at Edward as she spoke. "While you were struggling with these emotions, who said I was not struggling too?"However, I just couldn't forget you. I couldn't accept a future without you. What I wanted was to have you by my side. I wish you were my lover, and I want to be with you, Edward Ford."Her response was firm and resolute. It echoed with conviction.At the same time, she seemed to be giving her answer to the Edward who had been hiding his feelings in fear and panic for many y

    "If you're ever unhappy, you can come find me anytime. I'll always be here for you."This was Edward's promise.These were the moments when Ophelia had seen Edward smoking. Each time, it seemed to have something to do with her.She recalled the past. The way Edward always looked at her became even clearer in her mind. Back then, she might not have understood the struggle and yearning in his eyes.But now, she thought she understood.Her mind was filled with too many thoughts, and their embrace had lasted far too long.She wanted to push him away, but at that moment, he suddenly whispered in her ear, "Your first kiss wasn't him. It was me."What?Ophelia was stunned. She even thought that she'd heard wrong.When had she ever kissed Edward? How come she never knew about it?She pushed him away. Her doe eyes widened."You're lying. E-except just now, we've never kissed before!""The night before I left the country, you held onto my shirt and refused to let me leave. After you

    Ophelia still remembered the melancholy and confusion that she'd seen in Edward's eyes. He had looked like a young boy who couldn't find his way home.The moment Edward saw her, he stubbed out his cigarette. Holding her hand, he led the bleary-eyed Ophelia back to the bedroom.Worried that she'd catch a cold from the freezing winds, he made her a cup of hot chamomile tea. She didn't like the taste, so he had to try his hardest to coax her into drinking it.Upset, she said to him accusingly, "Edward, I feel I'm turning into a chamomile plant."Edward laughed.He was handsome. Even when he laughed, he looked attractive. Amusement bloomed on his charming and elegant face.She complimented him dazedly, "Edward, you're really good-looking."Even though she was still mad that she'd been coaxed into drinking a whole mug of chamomile tea, she still found herself lost in his handsomeness. Edward's eyes were curved from his broad grin, and he reached out to rub her head."You're very goo

    "So it is because of Stanley.""Well, I'm much older than you. Stanley is young so there wouldn't be a generation gap between you two. You must like someone younger."That's not all. Stanley has excellent grades. I naturally understand that you'd choose him. After all, he's the first guy you've ever called your boyfriend."You don't have to say anything; I understand. I'm not up to standard. Stanley will definitely achieve greater things than me in the future, so I shouldn't keep clinging to you…" I must have put you in a difficult position. If I had known that you had picked Stanley, I wouldn't have come back and disturbed you. I've disturbed the peace in your life."Every single word Edward said felt like a stab in Ophelia's heart.Was he crazy? Why was he talking about Stanley in every sentence?Ophelia tried her hardest to bite her tongue, but in the end, she failed to hold her anger in."You keep talking about Stanley, but didn't I already tell you that we've broken up?

    Ophelia snatched the junk food box in a huff to fill the gift boxes with snacks."You! Stop causing trouble!""Okay, okay! I'll stop messing around." With that, Joseph muttered, "It was just a few sweets…"Ophelia glared at him. Joseph immediately cleared his throat and no longer uttered a word. Instead of teasing her, he also began helping her pack the boxes. Not trusting him, Ophelia intentionally inspected each box. She only felt assured to hand him the boxes once she was certain none of the chocolates or snacks were missing.Not long after Joseph started packing, he began looking around absentmindedly. He looked down and noticed many private messages on Ophelia's phone. Those still part of Yvonne's fandom had sent those messages. They were scolding Ophelia.Ophelia merely glanced at the messages before nonchalantly turning off the phone screen. Not only were she and Joseph done wrapping the boxes, but Edward had finished preparing breakfast as well. Edward prepared all of

    "Oh!" Joseph exclaimed. He whirled around and took a step back before patting Edward's palm. "Shouldn't you give me something in return for my advice? A present or something, right?"Edward came off as rather domineering as he asked icily, "Tell me which car you want. What model and series? When do you want it?"Yes, Edward had brought up cars. Joseph's eyes lit up. "I want the latest SUV from Land Rover within the next three days."It wasn't as if Joseph couldn't afford the car. He simply liked messing with his friends. After all, free things were the best. "Sure." Joseph continued flatteringly, "Bro, this is how it works. Women are usually more soft-hearted, especially someone like Ophelia at her age. You should give in sometimes."Be shameless if she ever tries to drive you away. Hug her and act pitiful by saying that you don't want to leave her. Say that you can't sleep or will have nightmares if you don't see her. You can even be more dramatic."Joseph was quick-witted enou

    Ophelia was left dumbfounded after hearing Joseph's advice. What nonsense was he talking about? He was supposed to be on her side, not sabotage her. Edward shoved Ophelia out of the kitchen. "Something's wrong with his brain, so just ignore him. Go and rest."Ophelia was still perplexed as Edward pushed her out of the kitchen. However, she didn't probe further since she refused to speak to him for now. Once Ophelia was gone, Joseph immediately cursed. "You're such a beast. 28cm, 28cm. Why don't you cut off that thing of yours? Did you think your sweetheart is someone who appears in those adult films?" Edward's eyes twitched. He finally understood what Joseph had been blabbering about. Joseph was such a pervert through and through. Edward slammed the knife onto the chopping board. "I'm talking about my age. What's gotten into you?""Oh, it's your age." Joseph sighed in relief. He had been worried about how Draskia could have such a pervert like Edward.After a while, Joseph e

    "Ophelia." As soon as Edward spoke, Ophelia glanced at him nonchalantly. "I'm starving."Edward was relieved that she was still willing to talk to him. "I'll prepare breakfast." With that, he cast a glance at Joseph. "Come and help me."Joseph scoffed. He got to his feet before stretching lazily. He hadn't slept for the whole night as he accompanied Ophelia playing video games and doing other things. He was indeed slightly exhausted.But Joseph was well aware that Edward did not want him to be alone with Ophelia. Regardless, Joseph was fine with helping Edward with preparing breakfast. After all, he was there for the drama.Every three days, a housekeeper would drop by Ophelia's condominium and replenish her fridge with all kinds of fresh vegetables and fruits. While studying abroad, Edward wasn't used to the local fast food. Hence, he became independent and learned how to prepare meals on his own. Now, he was an excellent cook.However, Edward was still at a loss on how to

    Ophelia took a picture of the fan merchandise she had wrapped before posting it on Twitter, where Chelsians were still waiting for the giveaway. No one could be bothered with Yvonne, who was trying to stay relevant.Ophelia was still preparing the fan merchandise when she heard the doorbell ring in the middle of the night. Within the next second, she received a WhatsApp call from Joseph, which she answered."Ophelia, open the door for me."Ophelia was surprised. She wondered what was wrong with Joseph. Shouldn't he be sleeping now? Why had he dropped by in the middle of the night?She was no longer worried, knowing that Joseph was at the door. She opened it and watched Joseph squeeze through the door while holding a large bag of what seemed to be snacks."Shouldn't you be sleeping now? Why are you here?" Ophelia couldn't help but roll her eyes."You're not asleep either." Joseph went through the large bag before finally fishing out a game controller, which was also a limited-edit
