Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 673
Liesel always had a good figure, and wearing the bodycon dress made her look more graceful than ever. However, her striking and dignified appearance completely outshone the bright dress."Do I look nice?" Liesel put on a pair of stunning pearl earrings with a tender smile. Elijah was unable to tear his eyes away from her for a moment. "Why don't you change out of the dress?" Liesel was satisfied, knowing that he didn't want anyone to see her in that dress. But she had no intention of changing. She wanted to look her best when she kicked Dash and his business back to his own country. By the time Liesel arrived, many luxury cars were already parked there. As she got out of the car, she spotted Jimmy in sunglasses from afar. He put a lollipop in his mouth. Within the next second, his entire face scrunched up at the sour taste. Jimmy felt like he was about to go numb from the sourness. He pretended to look sincere as he handed the lollipop he had licked earlier to Jasper. Those

Liesel smiled. "Sure."Elijah didn't bother looking at her and Jimmy. After all, she merely burned the fish, and no one would die from eating burned salmon.Jimmy, Jasper, Liesel, and Elijah went to the private room together. Instead, Tobey and Chelsea arrived later. By then, the others had already finished ordering dishes in the private room.As they weren't hungry, they ordered small portions of food. They simply knew that there were some new dishes available and wanted to try them.Tobey entered the room with a grim expression. Chelsea cheerfully skipped toward Liesel right away, causing him to look more furious than ever. Jimmy seemed unaware of what was going on. He stood up and shouted as if he hadn't seen anything, "Tobey, Liesel said that she prepared your favorite seared salmon! She refused to open the lunch box since you hadn't arrived. I want to try it as well. Quickly come over."Had Liesel gone mad? Tobey glanced at her in disbelief, but she responded with a gentle

Jimmy's smile was wiped off as soon as he heard Dash's words. Tobey and Jasper's gazes turned icy as well.Only Liesel continued smiling warmly. She patted Elijah's shoulder as if she were reassuring him. As she looked up, her vivid gaze was filled with iciness."Losers always make the biggest noise. Everyone knows that." She was clearly referring to Dash as a loser. Dash understood Draskian. His face turned green instantly as he stared viciously at her. "I'm actually quite confused," Liesel remarked with a smile. "Have you ever beaten me before? Not only have you lost every time, but you always suffered major losses. "Last time, you had to sell off several of your businesses and land overseas at a loss. This time, you're getting kicked out of Draskia, and I'll even be taking over your final business in the country. "I don't know why you still have the guts to face me after ending up in such a pitiful state. Saying all that doesn't even hurt me and can't even be considered an

Love-struck fools could be truly terrifying. Jimmy felt that Elijah had gone blind.Dash returned to the private room, deciding not to attend the live event. He sent his trusted aides and executives in his place.The executives were furious but dared not speak out. After all, Dash was the one in charge.…Today was the day Dash officially announced his withdrawal from Draskia. The live broadcast had begun.On the screen, high-ranking officials from Rayden Enterprises stood in a row, bowing deeply. They seemed reluctant to leave Draskia.Many uninformed netizens flooded the comments under this news, saying that Draskia's investment environment had deteriorated and forced international capital to flee. They lamented the country's economic decline and claimed it was on the brink of collapse.The news broadcast was live, and ridiculous comments kept popping up.Some mocked Liesel, saying she was too ruthless and offered no room for survival. Some even claimed that her actions would

Liesel's actions were a clear response.No matter what happened, she would always choose Elijah. Even though his legs were broken, he was still the love of her life.The comments on the live stream were a frenzy.Was someone as smart as Liesel really unaware of the consequences of this?By showing such affection for Elijah in front of everyone, any future emotional crisis would turn the love she expressed today into a weapon used against her."Has Liesel lost her mind? Doesn't she know what this means?" Cameron was stunned.Thomas watched the scene with a sorrowful gaze. A bitter smile escaped his lips."She's always been this way. She said Elijah is the love of her life, and it will always be him."Thomas' eyes were filled with longing and deep sadness. His heart ached with every passing second as he watched the live broadcast.He had known Liesel would be at the venue, and he wanted to be there too. But he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control his emotions if he saw

The man's shout was loud enough for everyone in the room to hear clearly.Jacob's expression darkened instantly, while Natalie, hidden in the shadows, sneered.She thought that Liesel really was an idiot. If she wasn't a fool, how could she possibly think pushing Dash out of Draskia was a good idea?Dash was a giant in the industry. The money that slipped through his fingers could build entire sectors of the economy. Why would she drive him away? She must be out of her mind.It was no surprise someone would challenge her.The high-level executives from Rayden Enterprises exchanged looks. Their eyes glinted with malicious intent as they eagerly waited for Liesel to say something.Elijah remained expressionless, with a clear trace of sarcasm on his face. As for Tobey, though he didn't like Liesel, he knew she was no pushover.Everyone believed that Liesel could handle this little interruption."Why don't you say something, Liesel? Are you feeling guilty? Are you a foreign spy? Is
Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 679
Liesel continued, "The reason Rayden Enterprises was driven out of Draskia is because Dash stole confidential information about the domestic car industry—incorrect information, at that. During the test drives, a car exploded, causing casualties, which led to the stock prices plummeting."Dash, from a political and economic perspective, realized that without access to the car company's confidential data, Hardin Group would control all the information."Once Hardin Group releases a new product, Rayden Enterprises would be boycotted, and their old models would soon become obsolete. He left Draskia because he could no longer make money here."You think I'm the one driving him out? You'd have a point if that's how you saw it, but the truth is, Dash couldn't afford to lose. The shareholders in his company couldn't afford to lose."After a pause, she said, "His departure from the Draskia market was inevitable. It has nothing to do with me."You claim that Dash will scare foreign companie

"What are you doing in here?" Chelsea asked. Her voice was weak. Her body trembled slightly in the water. Her shoulders were reddening from the heat. Her skin was so sensitive that even warm water made it turn pink."It's nighttime," Tobey replied as he undid his belt with deliberate slowness. His voice was soft, almost teasing, as he said, "You've been soaking in here for ages. I had no choice but to come in."Chelsea swallowed hard. Her breath quickened.He was definitely doing it on purpose. The way he unbuckled his belt so slowly was driving her crazy.It wasn't that Chelsea didn't like Tobey—she did. She simply appreciated his looks. After all, who didn't like a hot guy? And Tobey was exceptional in that regard.Every time he acted like this, she couldn't help but feel like he was teasing her, and her heart raced faster.With his looks and body, Chelsea had to admit that he was really something else.She had planned to head back to the studio for dance practice tomorrow, bu

"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
