Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 501
"Looks like Mr. Lark treats you pretty well," Liesel said with a playful lilt. The remark immediately brightened Chelsea's mood, and it seemed like her energy had been restored.But Liesel wondered if Tobey was really treating Chelsea well.If generosity alone counted as kindness, then yes—Tobey was exceptionally good to her. His support was unmatched. It was the kind of indulgence few could ever hope to receive. He was like that even before their marriage.When Liesel couldn't secure investment while overseas, Chelsea simply spent one night with him, and he poured millions into the project. When Shifter Corporation faced a capital squeeze abroad, Chelsea approached Tobey again, and he discreetly pulled strings to ease the pressure.Tobey wasn't exactly a man of deep sentiment, but he was loyal to those he considered to be within his circle.But that doesn't mean that he would do anything for someone if they gave him enough chips.In fact, he might ask for double the chips.But

Chelsea had been exhausted from her intense training schedule on the talent show, but she spent the entire night dealing with Tobey's insatiable demands. That left her with barely any sleep. To his credit, at least he had the decency to press a cold compress over her swollen eyes afterward.When she woke up in his arms, Chelsea used all her strength to kick him off the bed. Tobey didn't have the chance to react to her antics.Tobey's face darkened. No one had ever dared to treat him the way she did in his entire life. Getting kicked out of bed was unthinkable.But Chelsea was no ordinary person.The moment she realized her mistake, she clutched her waist and groaned softly with tears brimming in her eyes. It looked like her tears were just about to fall.Chelsea was his wife, and he couldn't do anything about it.She'd just returned from following a grueling schedule, and while he had indulged himself enough last night, her kicking him out of bed had dampened his mood. He certain

Chelsea's tone carried a hint of smugness as she recounted her observations.Tobey was often likened to a cunning fox in public. He was calculating, ruthless, and unyielding. Yet, his presence at Ashthorne's financial summit was a testament to his brilliance.Though merciless in the corporate world, he had established several charitable foundations. Tobey's actions against opponents were always within the bounds of legality. While some of them might go overboard, no one could find any fault in them.But in front of Chelsea, Tobey was a completely different person.Five years ago, he might have still kept up appearances around her, but over time, even a beast with sharp claws and fangs would occasionally reveal its vulnerable underbelly.For instance, Tobey rarely drank excessively in public. Stories of him being visibly drunk were from so long ago that barely anyone had seen him in that state. But Chelsea had witnessed it.Tobey would lose himself when he was drunk. His body woul

Chelsea froze.Liesel turned slightly, and her eyelids twitched. It seemed like talking behind someone's back always backfired.Tobey let out a cold laugh. "I'm like your tamed wolfdog? I let you kick me out of bed, and then I hug you and whine?"Chelsea instinctively rubbed her temple. But in the next moment, she straightened her spine with righteous indignation. "Did I say anything that wasn't true? Don't you have morning tantrums? Haven't you hugged me and grumbled about not wanting to get out of bed?""Chelsea, why don't you try saying that louder?" Tobey's gaze darkened as he gripped her wrist and pulled her into his arms."If I say it any louder, everyone here will know my darling husband likes to act cute with me in the morning." She leaned into his chest as her fingers played with the edge of his tie. "And you know I love it when you do that, just like how I love calling you daddy. Isn't that just… our thing?"Her words dripped with teasing charm, expertly flipping the na

Tobey had always understood Liesel's importance to Chelsea. She reminded him of it constantly. Chelsea cared about Liesel above all else, even more than she cared about herself.His gaze darkened as he looked at Chelsea, but she was ever unbothered as she kept her playful, knowing smile. She could tell Tobey understood her unspoken message, and just like that, her demeanor softened as she clung to his arm."Honey, Lili is my best friend. We were just joking around. You don't mind, do you?"Tobey didn't answer, but his silence said enough.Liesel couldn't shake the sense that something was off with their interaction. She couldn't place a finger on it, though.Chelsea planted a feather-light kiss at the corner of Tobey's mouth. "Go on, honey. Don't you have a meeting about that partnership? I won't keep you."With that, she dismissed him. She even plucked the very box of pastries he'd gone out of his way to get for her from Heritage Hotel.Tobey didn't know who he was supposed to

Tobey was the easiest to deal with. Crying, acting, and pretending made everything go away. He had a soft spot for Chelsea.As Tobey left, Kellan stood by with a blurred vision. It felt as though the future of Lark Corporation had a dead end in sight."Seems like you and Tobey have a good relationship." Liesel reached for Chelsea's earlobe and gently rubbed it. Her voice was calm and soothing. "That makes me feel better."She had always worried Chelsea's stubborn nature might get in her way, but now it was clear she had her own ways of handling things. It was a blessing since that meant that no one could hurt her.Chelsea handed her a cup of hot milk, and Liesel took it naturally. She listened as Chelsea spoke."Don't worry, I was just pretending whenever I'm with you. I'm not the innocent, harmless girl you think I am."Chelsea had always known she had a complex mind. When Liesel took her in, Chelsea understood much about the world. But she played the role of the naïve girl beca

Tobey didn't say a word. He just turned his head and stared at Liesel for a few seconds, but his expression gave away that Jimmy had hit the nail on the head.Jimmy silently cursed to himself.The Walkers weren't like Tobey. They weren't just there for appearances. They had real business to discuss. Jasper had come fully prepared with documents and contracts. He was ready to finalize a partnership on the spot.Jimmy, on the other hand, had been dragged along to fill out the numbers and liven up the scene. While the other executives were busy, Jimmy had parked himself on a couch, idly gaming away.Earlier, a reporter live-streamed interviews at the summit. While everyone else was busy discussing partnerships, Jimmy was lazily on his phone. From afar, it looked like he was reviewing documents. The reporter approached him, only to discover that he was playing a mobile game.When asked why he was gaming during a summit, Jimmy casually replied, "Are you kidding me? I'm a Walker."In A

The financial summit, which was aimed at fostering global economic development and international collaboration, concluded with Shifter Corporation and Hardin Group securing a significant number of contracts. Their success made headlines overseas.Industry insiders knew that Shifter Corporation's dominance was no surprise as it was a titan with an extensive network of international connections. But Hardin Group puzzled many.Before Elijah took the helm, Hardin Group was an old family business on the brink of collapse. Elijah reformed the company, and Liesel's leadership injected fresh talent and Howard into their research team, which brought innovation that culminated in Hardin Group's impressive performance at the summit.It was late at night when Charles studied data about the financial summit on his laptop. His usually mild expression was replaced by a cold demeanor. Slowly, he removed his glasses, revealing piercing eyes brimming with predatory intensity.Liesel was a wild card.

"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
