Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 159
Denzel had a lazy look in his eyes. He looked quite exhausted. Most likely, he'd just done two surgeries and hadn't managed to rest yet.They were standing not too far from each other, but Liesel's sharp sense of smell caught the faint scent of antiseptic coming from Denzel.Denzel typically appeared gentle but with a hint of coolness. Due to that, people could clearly sense the gaping distance between themselves and him.However, he always treated Liesel with a hint of intimacy. Or else, the sensitive Elijah wouldn't have sensed a threat.Denzel's cool gaze swept over Elijah."I'm Liesel's—" He seemed to pause intentionally for a brief moment before continuing slowly, "I'm Liesel's brother."Brother? Was he her biological brother or just an older brother figure?Or perhaps, he was an older guy that she dated?There were only two reasons he would use such a general term—if it wasn't that Denzel had feelings for Liesel, then he had to have only said that to toy with Elijah.E

Elijah pinched a cigarette between his fingers. He badly wanted to light it and take a few puffs to calm his emotions. A blue flame danced at the top of his lighter. However, right before it reached the tip of his cigarette, he extinguished the flame.He was being careless. Liesel shouldn't be inhaling the smell of cigarettes now.Fine, he wasn't going to smoke. Not smoking one cigarette wasn't going to kill him.He clicked his tongue and tossed the whole pack of cigarettes behind him.A tall bodyguard dressed in black clothes appeared from the shadows and caught the cigarettes. "Mr. Hardin, should I follow Ms. Sharp and Dr. Johanson?""It's fine," Elijah said. His voice was slightly hoarse. "You don't have to follow them anymore. She doesn't like it.""Understood, Mr. Hardin."…There weren't many tests to do, but the checkup still took up a lot of time. While waiting for the report to be generated, Denzel poured Liesel a cup of warm milk. "You've decided on Elijah?" he asked

Liesel looked up. Her cool gaze landed on Denzel. "I was married before. I'm pregnant with Jacob's baby. I want to give birth to this baby and raise him."I have many suitors in the industry. It's true that they like me, but could I be sure that any of them wouldn't mind my being pregnant?"Even if they don't mind, their families would. Not to mention, the child in my belly will become the object of their hatred. Even if I give birth to him, I'm afraid he won't live long."She spoke calmly, but the words she uttered sent chills running down Denzel's spine."They will be worried that this child will steal the family fortune. Thus, there's no way that my child can survive to adulthood."It was true that these considerations of Liesel's could actually happen.Or perhaps, it was more accurate to say that they would definitely happen."So Elijah is different?" Denzel asked.Liesel tightened the grip on her cup. "Like I said, we're the same. If it was up to me, I wouldn't kill this c

"Lili, did you really agree to get together with Elijah? The entire social circle is saying that you're now lovers." Chelsea was genuinely worried about Liesel. Otherwise, she wouldn't have rushed to Liesel's place to ask her this after working overtime tonight."Yes, we're together now."Liesel didn't lie. After parking her car, she brought Chelsea upstairs. She explained everything that she'd told Denzel earlier today to Chelsea. Chelsea had rushed here in a panic and ended up leaving feeling speechless. She also came to understand why Liesel had made this choice.Now that things had come to this, the only thing she could do was to give her friend her blessing.She hoped that Elijah was really someone Liesel could entrust her life to and that he wasn't just another Jacob.…Back at the Ford Manor, Vincert had heard some gossip when he went out today.Of course, it was about Liesel and Elijah colluding in secret and banding together.Some knew about Liesel and Jacob's marr

After getting the staff's agreement, Liesel left.The staff was wearing a Bluetooth earphone in one ear. Only after Liesel had walked away did she pause. Who had Liesel said to hand the letter to just now?The staff had been listening to music and hadn't heard who to give the letter to.It should be Jacob, right?Liesel had a good relationship with Jacob. Because of the situation with Dash recently, she must have to give Jacob an explanation. This letter must contain that explanation.The staff was also worried that she would get in trouble for the delay, so she immediately used the internal phone line to inform Drew.When Drew received the call, he was taken aback. However, he must have had the same idea as the staff and assumed that Liesel had written this letter to explain the incident with Dash to Jacob.Liesel, who had no clue that all of this was going on, checked the time. At this hour, she had enough time to take a soak in the hot springs.Stretching, she changed into a

At this time, why would Jacob even think about why Liesel had invited him here?He just wanted to let out the desire that was building within him.He didn't know why Liesel would try to entice him behind Elijah's back right now. She was clearly cheating on Elijah by seducing him, but he didn't overthink it.All he wanted was to plunder her and own her. He just wanted more.Liesel was terrified. Her chest heaved, and her eyes were round. She tried her hardest to push the man who was holding her tightly.However, she could barely fight back.The water splashing around in the hot springs soaked her nightgown completely. Now, her alluring curves were on full display. She could wholly feel the man's uncontrollable desire now.His hand pressed firmly against the back of her head as his lips ravaged hers.The thinning air made Liesel struggle to back away. At last, the two of them fell into the hot springs together."Jacob, are you insane?" Panting, she tried to back even further awa

"We were kissing. Didn't you see us?" Jacob said. His hoarse voice carried a hint of satisfaction from getting a taste of what he desired. He held Liesel in his arms firmly, not allowing her to protest or move."Jacob, you're insane!" Liesel thrashed, trying to push Jacob away. This time, he stopped restraining her. However, even though she was holding the wall, she couldn't stabilize herself. The slap she gave him carried no force whatsoever."Jacob, this is a crime!" She staggered forward and nearly fell, but someone caught her waist. Finally, she fell into Elijah's arms, and he held her firmly.Elijah's gaze was gloomy and dark as he clutched Liesel's arm strongly. "Lili, tell me, did you want to invite him or me?"His eyes were nearly pitch black as he wrapped his arm around her waist. Even now, it was just loosely entwined around her body without any real force."Liesel, did you want to invite him or me?" he asked again in a raspy voice."The one I wanted to invite was you

Elijah wanted to leave his mark and scent on Liesel's body. He wished to make her completely his. Elijah's reputation was far from positive. Although many speculated that he was hiding his strengths, they also believed he was a playboy who visited many exclusive hotels. Countless women were seen by his side. No one knew how many women he had slept with. However, Elijah remained truly innocent all these years. He would simply wrap an arm around these women just to put on a show. He never even kissed them. Even if he did take them into the hotel, he merely spent a few hours going through documents in the room. Once time was up, Elijah would give the woman a huge check to dismiss her. That gave an impression that he preferred fleeting romances.These women enjoyed accompanying him. After all, they would get a large sum of money by staying in the hotel room for a few hours. Who wouldn't enjoy such an easy task? Since Elijah didn't sleep with any of these women, some even wondere

"You know how it is. It's always hard to strike a deal between two smart people."Charles laughed.He knew that when Liesel suggested a partnership with Ford Corporation to manufacture anti-cancer drugs, it was actually a huge trap.Liesel and Howard were both researchers. Who could say for sure that after they gave Ford Corporation the drug formula, they wouldn't refine the drug further and make something even more effective?Considering Liesel's and Howard's intelligence, there would undoubtedly be a more potent version of the drug. However, Liesel would never choose to continue working together with Ford Corporation. Therefore, he had decided to ask for a mile. He had asked to collaborate on the artificial intelligence project.It wasn't that he was being greedy.It was because Ford Corporation wasn't the same as it had been a year ago. He had to tread very carefully to avoid falling for someone's scheme again.Without Liesel and Drew, there were many tasks that only he and

"Do you not want to hug?" Liesel cocked her head at him. "Don't think I don't know you. I bet you already wanted to kiss me and hold me the moment you spotted Jacob. Otherwise, you wouldn't have tightened your arms around me."Hadn't Elijah done that to send Jacob a message that Liesel belonged to him?Having been together for so long, there wasn't anything that she didn't understand about him."In that case, thank you for giving me a chance and playing along." Since he couldn't think of an excuse, he just came clean. There was even a look of amusement on his face.He pulled her into his arms affectionately. She also hugged him back, like she was a child staking her territory."Should we add some more spice and kiss?"This was really becoming more and more provocative.Why not?A smile appeared on Elijah's face, as if he was saying to her, "Bring it on."And she did. She peppered Elijah's face with continuous pecks. Then, she yanked on his collar, like she was claiming him as

From a short distance away, Jacob could see Elijah's arm curled around Liesel's tiny waist. She seemed very dependent on him as she lay in his arms listlessly. It was a stark contrast to the way she behaved in public with other people.Whether it was with reporters or business partners, she always seemed like a steady pillar of strength. She was graceful and calm, but there was a hidden sharpness within her.Anyone who interacted with her could feel the hidden threat that was lurking inside of her.Yet, the Liesel now seemed to have shed all the sharp spikes on her body, revealing only the soft insides. She appeared gentle and submissive… Or rather, she only showed this side of her to her lover.He should have been the one to get all of this.He should have been her lover.He was the one who'd thrown all of this away. All he could do was watch as Elijah purposely pissed him off.He was a man too. Of course, he knew that Elijah was doing it on purpose.Of course, he resented Eli

Elijah seized Liesel's wrists while chuckling coldly. "So what if you're someone's wife? If I wanted you, all I'd have to do is tell him. Then, he'd definitely have someone clean you up nicely and send you straight into my bed."He lifted her chin with his finger. "Do you think that your husband is a decent man? Do you think that he'd disobey me for you?"Liesel swallowed. She was enraptured by the look in Elijah's eyes right now.He nibbled on her ear while patting her panicked and pale face. "If you're obedient, I'll treat you well. If you're unwilling to play along and make me happy, I'll kill your husband and lock you up in my home. You'll never see the light of day again."Stripping off her clothes, Liesel bit his earlobe and whispered, "It's such a waste that you didn't go into the acting industry with Chelsea."Elijah chuckled quietly, letting her hands roam all over him. They left a trail of fire in their wake. When he was all riled up and ready to go, Liesel suddenly hugg

Liesel left.Charles gazed at the still-warm cup of tea on the table. There was a chilling look in his eyes.This was one of the times he'd made the wrong move.After walking out of Charles' office, Liesel wasn't surprised to see Jacob. However, she didn't even stop and simply walked out.He trailed after her leisurely until she was nearly out of Ford Corporation. Just as he was about to call out to her, he heard a cheerful, gentle voice calling her name."Lili, I'm here to pick you up." Jacob's eyes darkened. When he looked up, he saw Elijah sitting in a wheelchair and smiling at Liesel.Liesel didn't mind at all that he was a cripple. With a grin on her face, she crouched down next to him. Then, she grabbed his hand and placed it against her cheek.Jacob's chest clenched when he saw that. It felt like arrows piercing his heart.Liesel could still feel Jacob's eyes on her, but she didn't care. She even pecked Elijah lightly on the lips in front of Jacob. Then, while pushing

"Charles, even though we worked together for three years, you still don't understand me at all."Liesel tapped her fingers against the desk. While it was quiet, it also sounded indescribably threatening."Have you not seen what happened to Dash?"If someone tries to snatch something from me, not only will I make their wishes come true, but I'll also make them pay the price."You can only take what I give you. If you insist on snatching what I'm unwilling to give… then you will find out the price you'll have to pay."She grinned, but it carried an obvious iciness.Dash was indeed the best example.He had tried to snatch collaboration opportunities from her, so she squashed him. And that wasn't all. She also bought his land and assets from him for dirt cheap.Dash tried to steal her data and establish his own vehicle manufacturing plant in Draskia, so she simply chased him and all his businesses out of Draskia.Anyone who tried to plot against her and steal from her suffered hor

"If you have something that even Jacob doesn't, you must be very loyal to him.""Thanks for the compliment." Charles chuckled quietly. "Of course, I am loyal to Mr. Ford. It's because I'm loyal to Mr. Ford that I kept the evidence just in case."If Matthew decided to betray Mr. Ford one day, then I could use this to retaliate against him. After all, you also know that Matthew is far from a nice person."Jacob placed a lot of importance on Matthew because his parents had passed away early, so he'd been raised by Matthew and Vincent since he was younger. He ended up viewing Matthew as somewhat of a father figure. His love for his family had ended up blinding him, making him unwilling to bring harm to Matthew.However, Charles was different. He didn't have any significant feelings toward Matthew. He only cared about protecting Jacob's interests.Matthew was a selfish person who only cared about his own interests. This was why Charles had gone against Jacob's orders and kept the evi

If it had been Elijah who'd done this, what would Liesel have done?Could she still be so righteous?However, Jacob's words only made her stifle a laugh. Without even turning around, she said sardonically, "If Elijah was this kind of person, then I would never have gotten together with him."Whether it comes to family or lovers, first of all, they should have the right principles. They should know what they should or shouldn't do."Even a child can tell what's right from wrong, but an adult like Matthew doesn't know where to draw the line. Jacob, one day he will pay the price for everything that he's done."In the end, Jacob didn't stop her from leaving.He couldn't help but clench his fists. His eyes darkened.Liesel had always been strongly opposed to evil. Making things worse, Drew was the scapegoat for Matthew's misdeeds this time.Over the years, Jacob had already gotten Matthew out of trouble countless times. He was getting tired of it.He really wanted to call out to Li

Natalie wanted to destroy Ford Corporation as soon as possible.Once there was a new leader in Ford Corporation, would Jacob still be so arrogant?Natalie laughed coldly. Then, she remembered the words she heard in the hospital, and her expression frosted over.She thought that since she was already in the same boat as Edward, and that Edward might become the future leader of Ford Corporation, she could go for him instead.After all, Edward was tall and handsome. In her eyes, he wasn't inferior to Jacob at all.However, she never thought… that Edward already had a lover, and that it was his sister, Ophelia, of all people.Till today, she still remembered how that bitch, Ophelia, had once insulted her because of her background. To defend Liesel, Ophelia had mocked her for being a bastard child.How come Ophelia deserved to be with Edward? They were siblings! Even if they weren't related by blood, they had still grown up as brother and sister. Weren't they afraid of getting expose
