Chapter 350

Author: Cloud Drop
As soon as Matthew finished speaking, he saw Ophelia poke her head through the door. Her innocent gaze was adorable as she beamed.

At that moment, Matthew felt as if Ophelia had washed away all the darkness within him. He smiled while waving at her. Her eyes lit up even more, and she rushed toward him.

"Dad! Dad! Dad!" Her voice sounded sweet as she called him a few times. Upon hearing her tone, he knew she had something to ask of him.

"Tell me what you want. When have I ever said no to you?" Matthew always gave in to Ophelia.

Her smile grew wider. "Mr. Matthew Ford, I have something very crucial to tell you. I may start dating soon."

Matthew was never really strict as a father to Ophelia. To her, not only was he her father, but he was one of her best friends that she could talk anything about.

In the past, she might have sought Liesel out and chatted about all this with her. Now that Liesel had divorced Jacob, and Elijah didn't seem to like any of the Fords, Ophelia didn't w

    The financial summit was happening soon and would be held at Ashthorne this time. Although the financial summit had not officially commenced, it was scheduled to be hosted at Ashthorne's stadium.Many were placing bets on several large companies that were drawing attention for the financial summit this time. The speculators were guessing who would emerge as the financial summit's biggest winner.The companies mentioned the most were Hardin Group, Shifter Corporation, and Lark Corporation. Ford Corporation wasn't brought up because Liesel no longer worked there. On the other hand, Shifter Corporation got a mention because of Liesel's involvement.Liesel alone had caused chaos in the fight this time. As for Shifter Corporation, it remained consistently at the front. While it had expanded overseas in the past, the company successfully shifted its headquarters back to the country over the past two years.Since Shifter Corporation was a multinational corporation, it had far more conne

    These perpetrators seemed to be fully prepared. They had intentionally made plans to target Liesel and Elijah. More specifically, the attack seemed to be aimed at Hardin Group.The financial summit was happening very soon. Who would benefit from the current scandal? The other businesses. Hardin Group was finally in trouble, so larger companies were taking turns to ruin it. Even smaller corporations were secretly targeting Hardin Group, hoping to benefit a little from the situation.Hardin Group's stock prices were starting to become affected and began to drop.Liesel was still weak since she hadn't made a full recovery. Her gaze darkened as she looked at the sarcastic remarks about her on the trending topics. Was everyone about to start criticizing her in public? The chaotic situation made it seem like someone was controlling this game of chess from behind the scenes. Who was the true mastermind? Who would benefit from all this?It seemed like someone familiar with Liesel h

    Liesel massaged her temples while speaking lightly. "I never planned to expose or announce anything related to holography and 3D matters at a time like this. It's a shame that Matthew dug himself into a hole."Before Elijah could ask what Liesel was about to post, she was already speedily typing out large chunks of code on the computer screen. She quickly edited a video before sharing it on Twitter with a caption. "Hardin Group's holographic era is almost here. Are you ready?"It was a trap within a trap. While Matthew wanted to reap all the benefits, he should consider whether Liesel was willing to play this game. What did Matthew care about the most? It was holography. He prioritized the many years of holography research more than Ford Corporation and Hardin Group. Liesel simply wanted Matthew to have a taste of defeat and failure.Matthew wanted to research holography, so Liesel wanted to succeed before he did. She wanted him to know how far apart they were. Matthew wante

    "If all this is real, Liesel has truly paved the way for the holographic era.""Does anyone recall Liesel cheating during her marriage? Have you guys forgotten about her marriage to Jacob?" Someone intentionally brought up Liesel's private life at that moment. Another netizen retorted immediately. "Are you crazy? Do you even know whether Liesel even cheated during her marriage?"These paparazzi and gossip sites keep blabbering about her scandal, but did you hear anyone from Ford Corporation say a word? If Liesel really did have an affair with Elijah during her marriage to Jacob, surely she would have been fired two months ago!"Why would they still act so friendly on Twitter? Someone's clearly trying to start a business war after learning that Liesel has been researching holography. "Can't you see that the financial summit's about to start soon? Liesel and Elijah are presenting Hardin Group. Without Hardin Group, the other businesses will have one less major competitor, and they

    "Liesel!" All of Matthew's plans had gone to waste because of Liesel's retaliation. Matthew wanted to ruin Ford Corporation and Hardin Group. He even plotted against Liesel, who saw through his scheme. That was why she had ruined his schemes right away. "You're truly like your mother! So troublesome!" Although Heather was dead, Matthew couldn't even live peacefully. Meanwhile, Liesel was alive, ruining his defenses in every way. He had no other way out. Fine. Are you insisting on playing the game, Liesel? Matthew's expression darkened. He clenched his fists and slammed them on the table. Liesel couldn't blame him for what was about to happen. From today onward, Matthew planned to ruin everything Liesel wanted and anyone she wished to protect.After all, Liesel wanted to play with fire. She liked Elijah and cared for Xavier. Hence, Matthew would start things off by destroying them.He wanted Liesel to end up the same way Heather did. She wanted her to lose her loved ones

    Heather exhaled lightly while caressing Jason's hand very gently. "Jay, you're going to lose all your muscles if you don't wake up anytime soon."She placed his hand against her own cheek. "Jay, you responded to me today, didn't you? Since you already responded, you should wake up as soon as possible."Heather's voice was very soft. "I'm not a good mother, but Lili and Xavier need a proper father. They're waiting for you to wake up."Heather always knew very well that she was a cold-hearted person. She had invested all her feelings in Jason. If her research for holography was successful, she was determined to trigger Jason into waking up. If the research failed, she would accompany Jason forever while he remained in a coma. Liesel and Xavier were the last of Jason's bloodline. Did Heather care about Liesel and Xavier? Of course, she did, but her feelings for them were just a drop in the ocean compared to how she felt for Jason.That was why Heather said Liesel and Xavier need

    Based on Xavier's personality, Liesel assumed he would leave after the college exam. He would move out to his own villa once grown up. "Of course, I'll be there. Seeing how outstanding you are, the headmaster would probably ask you to go onstage and give a speech. I'll be watching you carefully." Liesel's voice sounded playful.Xavier seemed unsure how to continue the conversation with Liesel. He hummed in response before ending the call.Elijah was seated on the couch in the ward while going through his documents. He adjusted his glasses. "Was that a call from Xavier?"Liesel nodded. "He invited me to attend his graduation ceremony."Things had been far too busy lately, and Liesel often found herself in hot water. Hence, she felt much better after receiving a call from Xavier. "Do you think I should prepare a gift for him? What should I give to him? A pen?" Before Liesel could finish speaking, Elijah massaged his temples before speaking in a teasing tone."Babe, have you forg

    Once it was time, Liesel and Elijah went to pick up Xavier at the villa. Xavier was startled for a moment after noticing Liesel's delicate makeup before looking away uncomfortably. He asked, "Why didn't you sit in the wheelchair? Don't be so stubborn if you haven't fully recovered.""I'm almost fully recovered." Liesel had just started explaining when Xavier turned to look at Elijah. "Where's her wheelchair?"Elijah deliberately chuckled at that moment, seeming amused at the sight of Xavier taking care of Liesel. Elijah merely shrugged and acted innocent after Liesel cast him a fierce glare. It went without saying that Elijah had told Xavier. Since he couldn't convince Liesel, he had secretly contacted Xavier. He had an idea that Liesel would not object to Xavier.Men were such scoundrels. Elijah leisurely paced back and forth beside Liesel at that moment and sighed. "Oh, someone's only willing to listen to Xavier and not me."Liesel stepped on Elijah's foot hard in revenge,

    "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

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.
