Her pointy heels landed hard on Digby's chest, causing him excruciating pain.Melody had no intention of letting him off the hook easily.Another blow to the face greeted Digby just as he was gasping for oxygen and trying to rise to his feet."Arghh!" shouted Digby in agony.Who knew a woman of such small build could deliver such powerful strikes?Levian, who was watching the action from the sidelines, praised his sister's swift and decisive moves."Mel, you look so cool!" he exclaimed.Melody cautiously moved her wrist and looked at Digby from the towering point. In a chilling voice, she threatened, "If you refuse to speak, I'll beat you until you do."She was attractive, and just seeing her on the street would have revitalized and captivated Digby. But all he could sense at the moment was her tremendous presence, which almost suffocated him.What a scary woman she is!At first, Digby was silent because he was trying to keep an escape route to himself.The way things seemed
"I wonder what's going on?" said a middle-aged woman disdainfully. "But she deserves to be thrashed for being a mistress! She had it coming!" Evelyn was beaten severely all the way from the bed to the floor and took several powerful kicks to the stomach. Her back hurt so badly that she curled into a ball and had trouble straightening her back.There was no reason why Digby had gone crazy and begun assaulting her.She lifted her face in despair, tears streaming down her cheeks. She argued, "No, he's lying! I didn't... Ugh...!!!"Digby denied her the opportunity to defend herself. Raising his foot, he stepped hard on Evelyn's back. She writhed in agony as she was pinned to the floor.Her face was badly swollen and bruised, with two purple patches appearing under her eyes.The onlookers agreed that, as a mistress, she deserved her misfortune. Everyone just stood there, watching the scene unfold. Her screams and squeals of agony fell on deaf ears.She paid no attention to the IV
Although they were close friends, Ethan had not gotten used to Christopher's disdainful gaze.Christopher was staring at him from behind.The sharpness of his eyes made Ethan feel as if they had pierced his body.Ethan shifted his gaze, somewhat guilty. Then he noticed the picture on the table. He asked in astonishment, "Why do you have Andrew's photo?"Christopher took a step forward and picked up the photo."You know him?" he inquired.Ethan slowly closed his mouth. His inner voice silently cried out. Crap! I misspoke."Hahaha, Andrew is an award-winning actor. Everyone knows who he is." Ethan tried to lighten the mood by forcing a laugh. There was growing tension as he refrained from speaking further.Indifferently, Christopher began, "About that Troln bidding project...""Hey! It's not cool to threaten me!” With obvious irritation, Ethan spun his head around and ran his fingers through his hair."I'm just chit-chatting with you," he protested. "Can't I talk about it
That made Olivia overjoyed. Astonished, she said, "Oh my, you're such a sweetheart. Give me the details!" Her daughter, she believed, was thoughtful and dear to her heart. On the contrary, Christopher would be more likely to lecture her than to offer counsel.After her previous setback, Natasha had begun to monitor Nolan Enterprise's every move.She was continuously monitoring the news and noted an outpouring of pleasant remarks about Melody online.People praised her for being a decisive, self-sufficient, and dominant modern woman."Mom, you won't believe this, but recently a lot of people have been applauding that bitch, calling her a modern, powerful woman."Natasha clarified, "She doesn't rely on men, doesn't need men, and is completely committed to her career."After hearing this, Olivia scoffed, "What a lie! What can a fool do? Doesn't she have to do all sorts of housework to get by in our house? What a charlatan!""That's right! What do you think would happen if it beca
Melody sounded at ease and as though she had already made peace with the situation.Her brothers, however, noticed that she seemed to have some sadness in her eyes.The two exchanged looks. When their eyes met, they were momentarily frozen, and a fire of anger flared in the depths of their eyes.They were adamant about not letting Melody's past sufferings go unnoticed and unavenged."Mel, you don't need to concern yourself with these matters," Andrew assured her gently.He caressed her long hair and gazed at her with the gentleness of a quiet sea. He said, "We'll take care of it for you.""That's right! Out of all of them, Christopher has made the greatest mistake. He neglected his responsibilities as a husband and failed to appreciate a devoted wife," Levian chimed in, his brows furrowed and his fists cracking as he clenched them tightly.He declared, "And not just him. I won't let anyone who hurt you off the hook. They will all pay for what they've done!"Melody patted Levian
Witnessing Jonathan's escalating frustration, the butler quickly moved closer to lend support and gently patted his back, attempting to soothe his rising temper.Franz went on to say, "Perhaps Mr. Bolton was busy with work and didn't pay much attention to household matters, resulting in his unawareness of Ms. Nolan's birthday."However, his attempt to alleviate the situation only intensified Jonathan's irritation."Busy? How busy could he be?" he roared. The elderly man furrowed his brows, his hand trembling as he pointed accusingly at Christopher."They shared the same roof for three years. Was it so hard for him to inquire about it? It's clear that he never truly cared about Mel!""I..."Christopher found himself clenching his fists, unable to give a response.He could not refute Jonathan's accusation because he was right.During their marriage, he had been blinded by Talia and was engrossed in his work, leaving little to no room in his heart for Melody.In stark contrast,
Melody had enjoyed a birthday celebration all day long, and as night fell, everyone tactfully gave her space, allowing her to get some rest.After a quick wash, she retired to bed early, but her sleep was anything but peaceful.Once more, she dreamed.In this dream, she encountered the enigmatic man she had seen before.He patiently shared his knowledge of hacking techniques with her.Codes flashed on the screen, and she could not make sense of it. Everything seemed foggy, as if veiled in mist, as it had been the previous time.Melody yearned to ask him, "Who are you, really?"She observed everything in the third person in her dream, able to watch but unable to interact or speak.The man set her a coding challenge, which she dutifully completed. She concentrated intently on the keyboard. She eventually figured it out and was elated."I've finally bested you!"The man caressed her hair with affection and let out a soft chuckle. "You've outdone your teacher. I know you're ext
Albert made an effort to conceal his emotions.He replied nonchalantly, "You mentioned the man in your dream looks like me. Surely he has the looks of a model. Is he someone you know?""I can't say I know him," Melody replied, her brow furrowing slightly as she revisited the memory of her dream. "He appeared to be a hacker, and he was teaching me hacking skills in the dream."Things that Albert had carefully hidden were suddenly revealed. His eyes locked onto Melody in a way that was intense and filled with complexity.Noticing his prolonged silence, Melody looked up and prompted, "Hmm?"Their eyes met, and Albert quickly had his expression under control.He cracked a casual smile as though nothing had happened."Oh, it's nothing. I was just wondering why you'd dream of someone who looks like me."Leaning in a little closer, he winked playfully and teased her, "Perhaps I've been on your mind a little too much?"Melody burst into laughter at his remark, extending her hand pla
Luna nodded solemnly.Levian smiled, and rubbed her head. "Thanks for considering. I appreciate it."He took out his phone, and typed something.Luna watched curiously, and leaned forward to take a look. She was stunned when she saw that he had posted their photo on Facebook.She said quickly, "Delete it before they see it!"She regretted telling him that.Levian put the phone back into his pocket, and hugged her. "Everything's going to be fine. Don't worry."Luna understood his intentions, and said nothing."I promised you I'll never let you down. That's not the reason for you to be my secret lover. I don't have to please my fans. I'm rich. I'm a professional racer, not a gigolo."Levian words sounded so sincere, Luna was touched. She raised her head to look at him, stood on tiptoes, and kissed his lips.Levian was stunned. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and smiled. "You amaze me, Luna.""Huh?" Luna looked at him confusedly."You’re brave enough to kiss me now."She blush
The sales assistant grabbed the old lady’s hand, and demanded, "You must pay for this dress!"Levian grabbed the sales assistant's wrist, and threw her to the side. The sales assistant staggered a few steps away due to the force."That’s not how you should talk to an elder."Luna stood before the old lady, and looked at the sales assistant coldly.The commotion attracted the crowd. The sales assistant looked panicky."It’s none of your business!" the sales assistant yelled, staring angrily at Luna and Levian.Luna blocked the old lady from the sales assistant's sight.The sales assistant observed them, and said sarcastically, "Tourists, huh? Mind your own business."Levian stared coldly at her. The sales assistant was frightened by Levian’s gaze."It seems your parents didn't teach you good manners. I don't mind teaching you today," he said coldly.The sales assistant shuddered. She had seen all kinds of people in the store, and could feel the pressuring aura of Levian.Her
Luna and Levian saw him, and smiled.After noticing their gaze, McCain's expression returned to normal. He walked toward them casually."Luna, did you sleep well last night?" he asked with a gentle smile.Luna was disgusted by his smile, and responded coldly, "Yeah."Levian grinned playfully, and said, "How about you? You looked tired."McCain’s smile froze. He looked a little panicky, and made an excuse to leave. "It's almost time. Let's find our seats."He left quickly afterward.Luna stared at him coldly. McCain looked weird to her."Why are you staring at him? Charmed?" Levian asked. He seemed jealous.Luna looked at Levian, and smiled, "Yeah, by you."Levian’s smile widened.McCain left the building and called Matt, but Matt didn’t answer. He gripped the phone, tightly and cursed under his breath.-A spotlight shone on a man, who walked to the stage under applause.Luna also clapped."That’s Gerald Bell, the president of Bell Group, the leading Group in Franconia,"
Luna opened the door, and saw Levian leaning against the door frame with a helpless expression."What's wrong?"Levian shrugged. "The door lock of the smaller bedroom is broken. I can't get in."Luna glanced at the smaller bedroom, then looked at Levian suspiciously. "You didn't break it, right?"Levian immediately retorted, "Of course not!"Luna stared at him doubtfully.Levian touched his nose, and said in disappointment, "I'll take the sofa, then."Luna pondered, and whispered, "The master bedroom is enough for both of us."She couldn’t bear to let Levian sleep on the sofa in the living room. Besides, she trusted him.Levian smiled, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead. "Thanks, Luna."Luna blushed, and her heartbeat accelerated. She was curious, how did Levian know that?Levian put his arm on Luna's shoulders, and entered the master bedroom."You go take a shower first," he offered."Okay."Luna walked to the bathroom with her clothes. Not long after, the sound o
Benito looked at Juan, and winked at his subordinates. His subordinates walked toward the Hellers."I want to know who sent them," Benito commanded in a deep voice.The Hellers were terrified, and spilled everything.One of Benito's subordinates walked to Benito. He nodded politely to Levian, and reported in a low voice, "A man named McCain sent them."Levian's expression changed.He knew it!"What should we do with them?" Benito's subordinate asked.Benito looked at Levian, and asked, "Levian, what do you say? I can keep McCain under custody.""Teach them a lesson, and make them cooperate," Levian said with a dangerous grin. "As for McCain, I have a plan for him."He looked at Luna in the car. McCain would never take the risk if he actually had feelings for Luna and cared for her. He wondered if he was McCain's target, or if this had something to do with the business summit."Okay," Benito said. He turned around and commanded his subordinates, "Take care of them and make the
The cemetery was ahead."Levy, they slowed down," Luna said. She frowned, confused.Levian quickly turned the steering wheel, and made an emergency 180-degree turn.Luna quickly grabbed her seat belt and closed her eyes after seeing the bright lights from the car tailing them. She then looked at Levian in confusion, wondering what he was up to.She was terrified when she saw Levian drive toward that car. They were going to collide! Suddenly, she heard a sharp friction sound, and both cars passed by each other.Levian turned the steering wheel again and circled around that car.He smiled and assured Luna, "Don't be afraid, Luna. Everything will be fine. Trust me."Immediately, Luna was calm.The driver of the car tailing them seemed irritated by Levian's provocation; he sped up, and tried to slam into their car.Levian grinned; he sped up as well, and drove away from that car.The driver seemed to realize something; he quickly slowed down, and turned around to drive out of the
Luna carefully poked Levian's arm.He grabbed her hand, and quickly pulled her toward him, "I'm your boyfriend."He gritted his teeth. No one knew how much he wanted to punch McCain when he saw that slimeball approaching Luna.Luna grinned, amused. "He's just a friend. You're my sweetheart."Levian was the best! No one deserved her attention except him.Hearing that, Levian was pleased and smiled. He put his hand against Luna's palm, their fingers intertwined.The driver suddenly braked when passing through an alley, and their bodies leaned forward."What happened?" Luna asked. She looked anxiously at Matt, the local driver she and Levian hired."Something ran through just now," Matt explained while unbuckling his seat belt. "I wonder what that was."He left the car and walked around.Luna heard a meowing, and saw a black cat pass by. She pointed in the direction, and asked, "Was it that cat?"Matt looked in the direction of her finger. "I don't see any cat. Probably a stray
Levian looked handsome and gentle under the spotlight. He took the microphone, and said slowly, "It's my honor to deliver my speech today. This summit brings together business talents from all over the world..."Levian kept his eyes on Luna as he spoke, and she concentrated on his speech.They noticed each other's gaze, and smiled.McCain tried to chat with Luna but noticed her gaze. He bit his lip, jealous. He quickly took his phone, and showed it to Luna, "Hey, Luna, I found the emails."Luna was too focused on Levian's speech, so McCain’s interruption annoyed her. She grabbed it, and read the emails. While Luna was reading the email, McCain looked at Levian and smirked. Levian's expression changed, and he spoke faster.Luna briefly read two emails. They were McCain's remarks about music, and how much he missed her. She breathed a sigh of relief when she didn’t find any confession.Still, she was a bit moved by the memories. She returned the phone to McCain, and said, "Than
Levian and Luna turned around, and saw a tall man with blond hair and blue eyes."You look so beautiful today! It took me a while to recognize you."He observed Luna as he spoke.Luna frowned, uncomfortable with his gaze, and asked politely, "Do you know me?"That man was a stranger to her."Oh, don't you remember me?" The man clutched his chest as if he was hurt, and sighed. "I'm McCain. We were in the same music camp for three months, when you were seventeen."Luna thought for a while, and finally remembered him. She nodded, and smiled politely. "Oh, yes. It’s nice to meet you again.""I'm so glad I come. It's good to see you again." McCain smiled happily.Levian stared at McCain with a frightening expression that hinted at anger.Music camp, huh?He could sense McCain's intention.Luna noticed Levian's expression, and said to McCain politely, "The party is about to start. Let's take our seats."She wanted to leave, but McCain blocked her way. "I missed you so much. I l
