"Of course not. If you resolve this threat perfectly, then they will sell their shares at half of the market price to either me or you. Moreover, Richard will step down from the board and leave Hardin Group."Liesel nodded. "Yes, that's only fair. However, aren't you afraid that they'll go back on their word, Mr. Donner? This agreement isn't legally binding, is it?""Our shares have already been entrusted to a third party. Once an outcome is reached, the third party will execute the agreement. My shares will be returned to me in half a month at the latest, and so will Richard's shares."Felix adjusted his tie and smoothed out the wrinkles on his suit jacket. He gave both Richard and Uriah a meaningful look.Liesel raised an eyebrow. "I see… Well, I'll buy the shares that should have belonged to Elijah in the first place."Richard paled. "Liesel, are you crazy? These shares belong to the Hardin family. Are you really going to snatch them out of mine and Uriah's hands? Do you really

Liesel walked out of the visitor room. Standing beside the wide-open door of the conference room, she raised her voice and said, "Mr. Donner, please inform the HR department to not lay a hand on any of my team members in the research department."None of my subordinates did anything wrong in this incident. Besides Austin and Alisha, the other staff should keep their positions. If the HR department wants to fire any of them because of this, I would be the first person to object."The noisy conference room suddenly fell silent.When they heard this, all the team members' eyes reddened.They had to count their blessings that Liesel was their boss.She had fought for their benefits. She had shouldered this injustice for them. She had fixed the situation for them. Out of all the leaders in the company, she was the one who took care of her team the best.As Felix gazed at everyone's emotional faces, he naturally understood why Liesel had done that.She was giving the research departme

If Liesel and Heather were pitted against each other, who would win?Liesel lowered her gaze. She also wanted to know whether she was capable of measuring up against Heather at this point."Before she faked her own death, she had already started researching holography. After all these years, take a guess how far she has gotten in her research," Howard said with meaning. "Perhaps she has already researched holography in its entirety."I pride myself on being a genius, but I cannot compare to Heather."You and I are on par with each other, but in comparison with Heather, there is still a gap. However, I can understand why. After all, you're not only specializing in holographic design."Howard understood Heather very well. She was the most intelligent person he had ever come across all these years. Oh, that wasn't true—there was Jason too.It was impossible for this couple to give birth to a child with bad genes.If Liesel were to be compared against Heather, she might very well lo

Austin didn't go back to his family. Instead, he merely called his mother and asked her to go into hiding with his brother somewhere. Then, he transferred her some money.He didn't care about what happened afterward, nor was he able to.Dash suffered major losses. After the video was released, he began to hunt Austin down. Like a stray dog, Austin was on the run for his life all day and night.When he defected to a foreign nation at the start, all he had seen was the large check on the table. However, he had missed the sharp blades and traps lying beneath his feet.Dash was hell-bent on catching Austin. Austin's "betrayal" had left him with severe losses. Liesel had not only swallowed his subsidiary companies in Draskia, but also the local high-end vehicle production line.This brand of high-end cars was on par with Mercedes Benz and BMW; it brought in several billion dollars in profit for Dash. Now that it was gone, he had practically lost half his lifeline. However, Hardin Group

Liesel leaned forward, but Elijah avoided her. After a brief moment of shock, her eyes grew wide. She leaned forward again, but Elijah moved his head to the side once again.In disbelief, Liesel began to question her own charms. Unable to stop herself, she leaned forward and started writhing around on his lap."Elijah, you're too much. What kind of person acts so coldly after sleeping together? I won't accept it…"She quietly popped her head out of his embrace. She pouted her lips slightly like she'd suffered the greatest injustice ever.Look, he'd once again seen the other side of Liesel.She was soft, cute, and harmless. She looked like a pitiful little herbivore, like a gentle rabbit.However, Elijah knew that his lover was far from a rabbit. She was clearly a fox in rabbit's clothing. And, she was not just a normal fox. She was the kind that could bewitch a man.He sighed very quietly. "Lili, I'm just a little angry."Liesel knew it.See, he was mad, just like she'd though

Liesel buried her head in his chest, whimpering. She grabbed Elijah's idle hand and placed it on a specific spot on her lower back. "My back is so sore. Can you massage it, please?"Elijah's hands came into contact with skin so soft that it felt like a peeled hard-boiled again. It felt like if he used a little too much force, he'd leave behind fingerprints or even crush her.He remembered the bruises that he'd left on her waist in the form of fingerprints last night.His eyes darkened, and he held her tightly in his arms. Burying his head in her shoulder, he said helplessly, "You just love to tease me."Seeing him so helpless, Liesel laughed out loud. She'd managed to make Elijah forget about those useless things happening on the outside.Elijah's hands began to rub the sore spot on her lower back. Cheerily, Liesel lay in his arms, enjoying his hard work. After a moment, she asked, "Since you care about this so much, then why don't you come with me today?""What?" Elijah thought

"So you want to humiliate Dash?"Was Liesel trying to humiliate Dash? Every important person in Ashthorne was going to see him like he was the laughingstock of Draskia.Liesel considered it giving him a taste of his own medicine. After all, if Dash hadn't gone against Liesel and Hardin Group, she wouldn't have aimed her arrow directly at him. In other words, Dash had asked for it, so he couldn't complain that Liesel was being cruel.Not to mention, Dash also knew how ruthless Liesel could be. Wasn't "bait talks" bad enough? Why had he insisted on crossing her again?"Seems like Dash will think of this nightmarish experience every time he talks about you from now on."This wasn't just Dash's nightmare, but also the nightmare of many foreign investors."Don't you like that?"Liesel wrapped herself in a blanket and hummed. However, Elijah gripped her slim ankles, bowing his head to observe her feet.Liesel curled her cute, round toes.She had always thought that she was beautiful

Thanks to Liesel's invitation this time, Tobey was able to give Chelsea a chance to make up for her poor behavior. However, she got into the car happily after leaving the training camp and didn't seem to have noticed his displeasure. Perhaps she was aware but pretended to be in the dark. While Chelsea was at the training camp, almost everyone seemed to have secretly hidden their phones. Everyone could keep up with the news outside, and Chelsea had read plenty about Liesel and Dash's fight.Chelsea barely said a word when others were criticizing Liesel for being so reckless. Now that Liesel bounced back, the first thing Chelsea did after leaving the training camp was to give her a call. She was acting like she was her biggest fan. Chelsea completely disregarded Tobey, who went through all the trouble to take her home. His expression darkened as he drove. The tension in the car seemed to grow more intense. "Why do you seem more upset than I do?" Liesel's eyes gleamed as she answer

"Shut up!" Ophelia yelled in a rage.She immediately asked the food truck owner to give her another cup of coffee before pouring it all over Veronica's calf. She was paying her back an eye for an eye.Agonized, Veronica swayed on her feet. Then, she collapsed onto the ground while gnashing her teeth in pain.Ophelia had been raised by none other than the demon himself, Edward. Since she was little, he would always stand in front of her to protect her. Ophelia knew better than anyone how he liked to deal with matters.After Edward left, she had picked up a few things from him. Naturally, she would never let herself get bullied by others."Give me a serving of fries, a taco, some churros, and a hotdog." Ophelia pointed at the menu items on the food truck and rattled on about her order to the owner, who was gaping at her.Ignoring the probing gazes of the people around her, she minded her own business and brought some fries to her mouth. Only then did she feel herself come back to l

Ophelia was so angry that she wanted to cuss at Edward. However, before she could even get mad, she heard Edward's disappointed voice. "Are you regretting this already?"Ophelia was dumbfounded. However, Edward continued slowly, "After giving it a lot of thought, you decided to abandon me. Is that it? I know I'm not good enough… I don't blame you…"Ophelia felt a headache coming on, but the anger had vanished. "No, I'm not thinking of abandoning you."The kiss yesterday had left her so excited that she hadn't slept a wink the entire night.She thought to herself, "If I don't set the record straight, Edward's going to overthink and paint me as a playgirl."She took a deep breath. "After you kissed me… I was really happy, so I only went to bed very late."Edward was obviously also caught off-guard. He hadn't expected to hear that. With delight in his eyes, he said, "I was also really happy that you let me kiss you."Ophelia hummed, and her face flushed red. "I'm really tired," she

Brandon didn't respond right away. Fred continued, "No one taught your mother and sister how to act appropriately in society. Mr. Ford is spending his precious time teaching them what to do and what not to do. Thus, they will have to suffer a bit for this."Mr. Zima, if you really want to help them, then just give your parents the bare minimum financial aid from time to time. As for your sister… you have no obligation to provide for her. Do you understand where I'm coming from?"Brandon couldn't accept it. "My sister's reputation in the industry isn't great right now. If I don't help her, then she really won't be able to survive. Mr. Ford is also an older brother. He should understand what I'm going through."Jacob loved Ophelia, and Brandon also naturally loved Yvonne. It was because of this that he wanted to try getting forgiveness from Ophelia.Fred raised his voice. "Ms. Ford is very warm and never treats people haughtily. She has never used her family background to bully oth

With a serious expression, Brandon rattled on about the various compensations for Ophelia. Fred nearly couldn't keep his facial expression under control.It seemed like everyone already knew that Ophelia was a huge fan of Chelsea's. It couldn't have been easy to think of such a compensation.The elevator arrived on the top floor, but Jacob still hadn't given his response. Therefore, Brandon hurried into his office behind Jacob and Fred. Finally, Jacob looked at him. "There is some sincerity to it."Firstly, a public apology to Ophelia on his company's Twitter account would clear her name. Secondly, the shares would be considered as financial compensation for the mental distress caused.The third form of compensation was the key point that convinced Jacob to look up. He thought that it was too difficult for Ophelia to fight for concert tickets and produce fan merchandise herself. Now that there was someone readily available to do it, Ophelia wouldn't have to work so hard.This pers

Jacob could really be heinous.Who wanted to listen to Veronica's blabbering?Most people thought that Tobey was sly, cold, and heartless. However, they didn't know that Jacob was the one who was truly wicked.In his youth, he had once been kidnapped because one of the medicines that the Ford family manufactured had threatened to undermine the profits of others. During that time, he'd suffered through endless torment.When he was rescued, his personality had turned ruthless.Although he could be monstrous, he placed great importance on his family and friends. And, Ophelia was his beloved little sister.How could he let Yvonne off the hook for scheming against Ophelia? He had to teach Yvonne that the world could be a harsh place.Not only was Yvonne stupid, but she was also very unfortunate.At first, Jacob could still tolerate how Yvonne had used Ophelia. He had just planned to give her a small taste of her medicine and stop there. However, Veronica had decided on her own accor

Vincent's expression turned cold. He wanted to kick her out of the house, but suddenly, Jacob's cold voice sounded from afar."Since our family is powerful and influential, why should we swallow our anger and surfer in silence?"Jacob had left a document at home, but because his assistant, Fred Foreman, didn't know where it was kept, he had to come home himself to get it. Unexpectedly, he overheard Veronica's haughty words when he returned.Well, a woman who was only pretending to be wealthy in a remote place was now acting superior in his home. Who would allow that to happen?All these years, Veronica had never been defied by someone younger than her before. Because she was much older, she considered herself superior. She didn't care if one was the heir to the family or the eldest son of the main family. At that moment, Jacob's words had made her rage boil over."Look! Look at the children that the Ford family has produced!"Jacob raised an eyebrow. He massaged the spot betwee

Edward chuckled quietly in her ear. "Where do you want to go tomorrow, Ophelia? Should I take you on an overseas getaway? Or perhaps, we could take a stroll nearby and watch a movie.""I can't go overseas; I'm not on break yet. Let's go watch a movie," Ophelia replied. "I've only watched a movie with you as my brother. This time, I want to try watching a movie with you as my boyfriend."Although Edward was still the same person, his identity had changed.She could now touch Edward openly. She could hold his hand, hug him, and kiss him.It was… really great."Alright, get some rest today. I'll come pick you up tomorrow," Edward said.Ophelia nodded and walked him to the door. As soon as she shut the door, she pressed her hand to her chest, feeling her heart thudding rapidly from the kiss earlier.She hopped into bed and rolled from side to side.After Edward got into his car, he finally let out a loud laugh. He pressed his fingers to his lips, reminiscing about the aftertaste sh

As their tongues intertwined, Edward could taste a sweet and sour flavor on Ophelia's tongue. It tasted like she just had a piece of strawberry candy that made her entire mouth taste sweet.Even her breath smelled like this refreshing and saccharine fruity scent. It was as if she was enticing him to take a bite of her and swallow her.The more they kissed, the more forceful Edward got. The air around them felt syrupy and intimate."Are you sure you really have never dated before? Am I really your first? If I am… then why are you so good at kissing?" she asked like it was an interrogation.She didn't know how to kiss and was very inexperienced. However, Edward had practically conquered her. He kissed her until her knees went weak.At the thought of Edward doing this to another woman, her chest began to ache terribly.Edward played with her hair, which had become messy from the kissing. "Like I said, you're all I dream about. I don't even know how many times I've kissed you in my d

"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
