"Who on earth could create such a story?" Tom Hulce leaned back in his seat, his shoulders aching and barely tolerable. If this were indeed the work of a single person, then that person would be the most formidable opponent he had ever encountered.Meanwhile, Thomas Anderson seemed to ponder something, lost in thought for half a day. He finally let go of the documents in his hand and spoke carefully. "In this world, not many can manipulate the stock market at will. I hope it's not him."Tom Hulce raised an eyebrow. "You mean, 'him'?""That's right," Thomas Anderson nodded heavily. "We all know 'he' is untouchable, the owner of Hoai Thuy Castle in the United Kingdom, known by everyone as 'Dark Emperor Arthur Hoai Thuy.' Someone who can control the entire stock market at will but rarely engages in such activities. I also don't believe they would target someone of that stature."They had never met each other, so hopefully, this time was just an unusual event unrelated to that person. Bec
But she didn't pay any attention to it; a girl was walking rapidly towards this direction, continuously tapping her phone, utterly oblivious to anyone on the road.It wasn't until she collided with Demi Moore that the mobile phone made a loud "thud" as it fell to the ground, splitting into two pieces, and she finally looked up."Don't you have eyes? How can you suddenly stand in the middle of the road like this?" A sharp voice echoed, so high-pitched that it made Demi Moore's ears hurt a little.Demi Moore was pushed back step by step, frightened, using both hands to protect her abdomen. The previous accident had haunted her for a long time, and now every step she took had to be cautious, but just because she didn't collide with others didn't mean that others wouldn't.The girl bowed her head to pick up the mobile phone, furrowing her brows in annoyance. The phone she had just bought had already shattered into two pieces."There are only a few like this in the world. Can you compensat
The youngest person had yellow hair, a face with a faint smile, and a cold gaze. He had met him somewhere before. Could it be... The black-haired man appeared more gentle, but he was certainly not ordinary.Standing between them was a tall man wearing sunglasses that obscured his face. But from his arrogant demeanour, it was easy to guess who was in charge."Hello, everyone. I am the manager of Hulce Corporation, Thomas Anderson. It's an honour to meet you all." Thomas Anderson smiled and reached out his hand, but only Fred responded casually, while Youdu played with a knife boredly, as if threatening him.As for Tom Hulce and Arthur, the two tall men were now locking eyes with hostility.Tom Hulce squinted slightly; this man made him feel familiar as if they had met somewhere before.Arthur also looked back with coldness. For the first time, he encountered someone he instantly disliked. Perhaps they were natural enemies."I am Tom Hulce; pleased to meet you, sir," Tom Hulce extended
"Miss Rihart is really beautiful. Mr. Arthur is truly fortunate to have a girlfriend like her," Tom Hulce exclaimed, his heart filled with envy. In his eyes, no one could compare to Demi Moore."Thank you," Nancy sweetly leaned against Arthur, oblivious to the mocking smile on Tom Hulce's lips."I heard that Mr. Arthur had been to Mexico for three months. I had no idea he was so interested in that place!" Tom Hulce casually asked, putting his hands in his pockets."I don't think I'm obliged to answer your question," Arthur declined directly. "I'll go ahead." He then quickly pulled Nancy's hand into the car.Tom Hulce approached Youdu, his eyes smiling inquisitively."What do you want to ask me?" Youdu looked up. "If it's about that girl, rest assured, we didn't create this situation because of her.""I'm not curious about that," Tom Hulce nonchalantly replied."Then what is it? Let me tell you in advance; you won't get any information from me!" Youdu pulled out a knife, warning coldly
Tom Hulce was restless as he stepped outside, hoping to find Demi Moore, only to see her standing in a daze on the other side of the street. His heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly ran towards her."Demi, why did you venture out like this? Didn't I tell you to stay at home? If you continue to act like this, how can I be at ease?" Tom Hulce anxiously spoke in one breath, not noticing Demi Moore's unusual expression.Blinking her eyes gently, it wasn't until her cheeks became damp with tears that she lifted her head to look at him. She saw his lips moving incessantly, but her ears couldn't hear anything. Helpless, genuinely helpless."Demi..." Tom Hulce reached out and cupped her face, feeling a cold wetness like ice.She cried...Why?"Demi, what's wrong with you? Don't make me scared." She faintly heard his voice in her ear, but it seemed to be drifting away, gradually disappearing into silence.Could it be that she lost her voice, and now she couldn't even hear the voice of others
He placed his hand in his pocket and took out a necklace. As he had predicted, it was the intimate belonging of the heir of the R.HIK family, and of course, it meant that it was Ace's necklace.Suddenly, there was a loud sound as the office door was forcefully pushed open. He wanted to express his anger and criticism but could only helplessly swallow his words when he realized who had arrived."Mei Grayson, can't you be a little gentler? I just replaced the door." Although slightly dissatisfied, his tone was still highly affectionate.But it seemed that the person who arrived didn't bother to pay attention to what he said and comfortably sat on the sofa, speaking in a reproachful tone, "Oh, so you didn't bother to come to pick me up, and now you're criticizing me like this. I have to tell this to Uncle!""If you want to, go ahead and tell him." Tom Hulce continued to massage his temples, feeling helpless with his cousin. She had an extremely gentle face, but her personality was comple
"Demi, stay here. Your other place has been classified as a dangerous construction site, and you can't stay there anymore. Stay here with me; I'll arrange a new room for you. Demi, give me a chance to make amends for the sake of the child's safety. After all, we've already lost one..." At this point, Tom Hulce's face became even more desolate. That child was their shared pain; just thinking about it would bring back all the wounds. But he could only use this reason to keep her; it was unfortunate...Demi Moore tilted her head, looking at him with a bitter smile on her lips. So, in the end, she was still just a useless person, unable to learn how to grow up and be independent. She caused Ace to suffer, made him work hard on construction sites, and made him sell his blood.He had left her, living a luxurious and comfortable life, while she made this child suffer.Ace leaving her was right; she should be happy for him. But why did she still want to cry?She stood there, her lifeless eyes
But he can't, honestly can't.He wanted to regain his memories; he had a certain feeling, just three short months, but perhaps more important than all the memories he had in his life."Ace..." It was that voice again, faint and distant, yet so close. His mind relaxed a bit, but his eyes remained shut."Ace." This time, the voice broke through clearly.He suddenly opened his eyes and saw a stunningly beautiful girl before him, her eyes slightly teary, as if on the verge of crying."Ace, it's you, right?" He saw her lips gently open and closed, her words excited and fearful. His head began to ache more and more; what was happening..."Ace." The girl placed her hand on his face, bringing a gentle warmth that felt comforting."Demi..." He called her heavily, as if this "Demi" came from the deepest part of his memory, something he had just discovered but brought along a lot of suffering and heartache."Ace, I finally found you..." Her voice was almost a whisper, tinged with sadness and a h
