Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 596
Within a few minutes, Liesel's bowl was filled with crawfish meat. There were only a few pieces of crawfish in Thomas' bowl. He only began filling his bowl with more crawfish upon realizing she was looking at him.He didn't mind starving and not eating a single bite as long as he could do anything for her. Not only was he smiling, but his eyes lit up with joy."Thomas, you actually don't have to peel crawfish for me." Liesel pushed her bowl of crawfish meat before him and continued earnestly, "In the future, you'll meet someone who will willingly peel crawfish for you."Thomas stopped peeling crawfish and looked up at her in confusion. He had no idea why she suddenly brought that up."I was once married. You know that, right?" Liesel brought up her painful past to Thomas right away. To her, Thomas must have genuinely fallen for her because he assumed she had never been married before. If he became aware that she was once married to Jacob, he would definitely back off and give up

Thomas never thought he would be rejected indirectly before he could even confess his feelings for Liesel. He continued eating his supper absentmindedly. After he finished supper, Liesel drove him to the entrance of a mid-range residential complex. "How much is the monthly rent here?" Liesel glanced at the condominium not far away."Two thousand dollars a month." Thomas sat in the passenger seat while hugging the grey kitten tightly. He was reluctant to get out of the car. "After paying rent, do you have enough to spend every month?" Liesel did not rush Thomas out of the car. Instead, she rolled down the windows a little so the car remained ventilated. She did not mention Thomas' identity and merely brought up a question laced with a meaningful undertone. "I don't smoke or drink. I only play games, so I have enough to spend." Since Cameron already canceled Thomas' secondary card long ago, Thomas hadn't lied about living off his own salary."Sounds easy for you." Liesel gazed at

"Can I take a day off?" Thomas asked. Liesel understood how he was feeling at that moment and smiled. "If one day isn't enough, you can take a few more days off."Liesel was still so gentle. She was so kind that Thomas felt more despair inwardly. Before leaving, he stopped to intentionally remind her. "Ms. Sharp, be careful of Austin whenever I'm not around."Although Thomas wasn't permitted to join the meeting earlier, he heard from those working at the research department that Austin was clearly harboring sinister motives."Why are you so certain that Austin's the problem and not me?""That's impossible. Ms. Sharp, you're the best person in this entire world. You would never betray the company." Thomas' words were filled with utmost confidence toward Liesel. "What if I stole company secrets and went to jail for that?" Liesel asked with an arched eyebrow. "That's not possible! Ms. Sharp, you would never do anything like that.""I said 'what if'.""There's no 'what if'."

Jacob glanced at Liesel, who looked at him with sarcasm in her eyes. There was no affection for him at all. "You refused to accept me and decided to go for Elijah. Now that he's crippled, you're choosing that man over me? Liesel, what can he even give you?"Jacob looked downward at Kitty in Liesel's arms. Kitty seemed to feel Jacob's disdain toward itself and began to tremble. "He even picked up this present from the streets."Indeed, Jacob had been keeping tabs on Liesel and was even here to spy on her. Otherwise, how else would he have known that Thomas was by her side? Liesel stopped petting Kitty. At that moment, her smirk faded away. "What does that have to do with you? Mr. Ford, have you forgotten who you are? You're merely my ex-husband, whom I've already divorced. You don't have the right to interfere in anything I do."Liesel mentioned him as her ex-husband to trigger him. Jacob couldn't help but clench his fists while staring at her icily."Must you trigger me?""I

Liesel was really capable of making Thomas fall for her. Had she known who he truly was and decided he could be of use? Was she planning to rise higher in the ranks?Elijah was lovesick for Liesel, but Austin still remembered how ruthless Elijah could be. If Elijah found out that Liesel had cheated on him, he might even want to ruin her completely and never protect her again.After all, how could anyone stand being cheated on? By then, not only would Austin have Elijah get back at Liesel, but Austin wanted the whole internet to know how scandalous Liesel could be. If Cameron knew how Liesel had seduced Thomas despite having a fiancé, Cameron would never let her off easily as well.As glorious as Liesel was now, she would be equally as miserable in the future. Despite being wealthy and powerful, she was still fragile no matter how capable she was. Austin wouldn't even have to do anything. All he had to do was lead her to the top before pushing her off. Liesel would crash and bur

Liesel couldn't hold back her laughter at Elijah's expression. "Are you angry?" She had clearly seen his eye twitching. Elijah was an extremely attractive man who did not resemble Jacob and Tobey's aloof demeanor at all. Instead, Elijah had chiseled features and stunning eyes. His intense gaze would make anyone feel like he only had eyes for them. Elijah had the looks of a troublemaker, yet he seemed strangely vulnerable at that moment. Liesel reached out and gently poked his face. "Why no response? Didn't someone say that Thomas' family and looks match me well? Didn't he even want to let me go so I could be with him? Why is this person so quiet now?"Elijah said nothing. He looked down while clearly feeling disheartened. "I remember you're always the best at explaining how life works to me. Why aren't you saying anything? Thomas has already confessed that he really loves me. Don't you want to know my answer?"Liesel leaned against Elijah. She pressed her forehead against his

Liesel's gaze flickered as she waited for Elijah's response. Struggle was written all over his gaze as he looked past her. He was lost in a daze. Her words seemed to pull him into the future.Elijah watched Liesel slowly drifting away from him. He could only sit in his wheelchair as if he were a spectator and watch her run toward another man's arms from a distance.He saw how affectionate she was with the other man, doing things only lovers would do. The way she cast a charming smile at the other man…No. Absolutely not.Elijah was still unable to let Liesel go so easily. She was his lover, so he refused to let her leave. He drew her into his embrace with one arm and held her tightly. "Lili, I was wrong." The hoarseness in his voice was quite evident. "I can't accept the idea of you leaving me. I don't even want to imagine it. Please don't be with Thomas." To Liesel, the current Elijah seemed extremely fragile. A slight push could cause him to break down. She could feel his swe

"Elijah.""Yes, I'm here," Elijah answered."Elijah," Liesel yelled again. "Yes, I'm listening," Elijah replied again. He stroked her soft, long hair with a warm gaze. "I assume you've thought things through," Liesel said. She assumed that he had considered everything and gave up on the idea of leaving her so someone else would take care of her. Instead, he would always be with her.Elijah understood what Liesel meant. He gazed at her gently before leaning forward to kiss her on the forehead. "Yes, I've thought things through."Elijah would not hold Liesel back. He would propose to her if she could heal him and give her everything. If she fell for someone else during that time, he also would not forbid her from leaving him.Elijah loved Liesel, but she would always have her freedom. He knew very well that he loved her, but he always wanted her to be free forever.He wanted her to stay by his side because she loved him, not because she pitied him. It was the only way he could

"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
