Come on, you can't sleep anymore!

As she warned herself, she fell asleep again.

This time, she didn't sleep for a long time before she reached her destination.

When Ronald woke her up, he was amused by her glowing cheeks and embarrassed look.

As the boat approached the shore, there were a few people standing on the dock. Elizabeth thought that they were just tourists on the island and did not notice them.

When they reached the shore, she saw that the 'tourists' were lined up in two rows. A middle-aged man came up and greeted Ronald, "Mr. Marquez, welcome."

"Hello." Ronald nodded lightly. His tone was calm and alienated.

The man then looked at Elizabeth. He smiled, "This lady looks very familiar. Have we met before?"

Ronald turned his head to Elizabeth, asking with composure, "You know him?" Elizabeth shook her head lightly, "I don't think so."

"Oh, I remember now. You look similar to that very popular female celebrity who I saw on TV." Then he led them get into the car, taking them to

    "Stop. Who are they?" Ronald swept across the sofa, fixing his eyes on a temporarily built awning not far ahead finally.A few people were playing Texas poker, and a bunch of bikini beauties were waiting by them."The bald man sitting over there is the biggest contractor in the area, and beside him are officials of the municipal government and engineers from the designing institute. As for the old man over there, he is the chairman of Starryham International, our biggest competitor. Speaking of which, Starryham International invested a lot this time, and even the chairman himself had come personally. It looks like the Lunar Island is a highly profitable project. I was lucky to be able to catch up with this party, otherwise we might not miss the chance." Oliver explained as he led Ronald to the awning.Elizabeth knew that Ronald came here for work so she didn't dare to disturb him. Thus, she retreated to the side silently, found a cool place to sit and drank some coconut juice.When Ro

    "Since Mr. Marquez is here, what are you afraid of? Let's go, don't let Mr. Marquez wait too long, or he will lose his temper." Oliver threatened as he tried to persuade her.The moment she heard that Ronald would lose his temper, Elizabeth immediately stood up from the reclining chair. She followed behind Oliver and walked to the awning."Who is this lady?" Derick couldn't help but be curious when he saw Elizabeth, who wore plain and simple clothes, following behind Oliver.Ronald held Elizabeth's shoulders, pressing her down onto a chair by the gambling table, then he said with a dangerous smile, "Mr. Fowler can call her Ms. Hubbard.""Mr. Marquez, do you prepare to let this Ms. Hubbard represent you?" Seeing Elizabeth's cowardly look, Derick could not help but ridicule her."Don't despise anybody in a hurry. Let's first win before talking about anything else." Ronald said as his hand heavily pressed against Elizabeth's thin and weak shoulder sarcastically.Elizabeth's body was pres

    "Ladies first. Ms. Hubbard, do you want to call?" Looking at her bitter face, Derick knew that her cards were bad and asked intentionally.Elizabeth shook her head. If she called, she would lose badly."I..." Just as she was about to give up, the man playing with the phone behind her coughed loudly suddenly, startling her.She was at a loss and did not understand what he meant. She turned to look at Ronald and found that he was still playing with his phone."Ms. Hubbard, do you want to call or not?" Derick did not have the patience to waste time. If he won this round, Ronald would be out completely.All these years, Starryham International had always been suppressed by the Imperial Group. Thus, he was teased as Forever No.2 by fellows in the industry, making him angry.This time, he managed to get the news that Ronald wanted to take charge of the development in Swynwick. In order to be a step ahead of him, he had spent a huge amount of manpower and resources, attempting to take over t

    "Just pay back the money.""What?" When Elizabeth heard this, she was instantly shocked and stood up from her seat.The roof of the battery car was not high, so when Elizabeth got up, she did it so fast that her head hit the roof of the car heavily, causing her head to be in pain, tears springing into her eyes."Ms. Hubbard, are you alright?" Oliver, who was sitting beside her, felt sorry for her when he heard the crack.Elizabeth's eyes were filled with tears, and she cried sadly, "I already said that I don't know how to play cards, but you guys insisted that I play cards with them. Now I lost and you want me to return the money. But how can I get that much money? Even if you sell me, I won't be able to pay it back."Ronald finally turned his head back with cold expression cold, and then he said without any emotion, "Take it easy. You can pay it back slowly."Hearing this, Elizabeth cried even harder.How many years did she need to make several billions of dollars?She wanted to die.

    The elevator arrived at the top floor.Elizabeth took out the room card from her backpack and opened the door, preparing to squat down to take Ronald's slippers.Hardly did she bend down than her arms were grabbed immediately by Ronald. He lifted her up. "Go to the bathroom and wash your face."Elizabeth's mind was currently occupied by the billions of debts, and she was not in the mood to think about anything else. He told her to wash her face, so she left obediently.When she went to the bathroom to wash her face and prepared to come out, she saw Ronald leaning against the door, holding an ice bag.Without waiting for her to react, Ronald had already pulled her over, and the ice bag in his hand was placed in front of her eyes directly."Hiss ..."So cold! She tilted her head backwards subconsciously, and just as she was about to collide with the door frame behind her, Ronald quickly held the back of her head, allowing her to escape this calamity."Don't move." He warned her, and his

    "No, no. I swore that I would not do it again for the rest of my life. I would rather die..." Shaking her head in fear, she refused to sell her body. But before she could finish speaking, she heard Ronald's lazy voice from above her head, "It's indeed a bad deal. Spending one billion to buy a butler is not worthy.""Huh?" What did he mean by that?"Butler...?" Did she misunderstand him? Elizabeth looked at him in a daze."What else do you want to do?" Ronald replied with a question deliberately.Elizabeth realized that she had thought too much, thus she went red as a beetroot in embarrassment immediately."Put the ice on your eyes, and then get someone to bring the lunch for me."With that, Ronald returned to the living room.Elizabeth pressed the ice bag against her burning face.What an embarrassment! She nearly misunderstood his meaning.Elizabeth hoped that he did not find out.***When Oliver returned to the hotel at night, the first thing he did was to place his phone in front o

    After her boss left, Elizabeth was free now.She took a nap in her room in the morning, and at around 10 AM, she went downstairs to the employee cafeteria for lunch.In order to stagger the dining and rest time with the guests, the hotel usually started lunch at 10 a.m. in advance. The dinner was at 4 p.m. and there was a night snack at 8 o'clock.When Elizabeth came to the dining hall, she saw a lot of people.As usual, she rushed to the window to get her meal. She noticed that many people gave her strange looks and whispered to each other.What was going on?Did she wear the wrong clothes?She looked down at her work clothes out of curiosity. They were quite neat. There was nothing special.After dinner, she turned around to find a place to sit, only to see that not far away, Dalia was waving at her, "Elizabeth, come here."Seeing that, Elizabeth walked towards her immediately."Dalia, are you on the day shift today?"Dalia pulled her to the side, and looked at the people around her

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Giana talking gossip to Elsie Velez, who was the deputy manager of concierge department of finance department. They laughed happily."Frankly speaking, I always thought that Mr. Marquez liked her and decided to keep her as his butler. But when I saw her crying in the elevator yesterday, I realized that Mr. Marquez gave her a hard time, which she deserved. She had wishful thinking that she would be able to become a wealthy by hooking Mr. Marquez...""So unbelievable. She usually looks pure and indifferent. But it turns out that she has been pretending. In fact, she's an easy girl." Elsie commented with a look of despise, echoing Giana's view.When Elizabeth heard the conversation between them, she trembled with anger."Giana!" She shouted out loud and walked towards her, "You better clarify when did I hook Mr. Marquez?"Elizabeth's sudden a

    After Shirley finished drinking the ginger soup, she laid on the bed, but for some reason, she could not fall asleep no matter how she tossed and turned.Outside the window, the rain gradually lessened. Occasionally, a few drops would be hit by the wind, but no sound would be produced.During her chat with Danica today, she found out quite a lot about him.She now knew the reason why he hadn't returned to the country in four years.She hadn't thought that after she was saved by him that year, he would not only be shot, but would also be in so much trouble.The problem had not been resolved until today, and he could be in danger of losing his life at any moment now.When she thought back to how he had caused Asher to lose everything and directly let him find someone to take his life, she couldn't help but admire his abilities.He always had the means to provoke people and put himself in danger.When she thought about the gamblin

    Shirley knew that Danica would not give up until she got an accurate answer from her tonight.But how could she describe to her the past between her and Zackary?"I'm not lying to you, your brother and I...We did know each other before, but not for long..." She thought for a moment before replying."Then do you like my brother?" Danica saw that her words did not seem to be fake, and asked again."En... This ..."Shirley herself had yet to figure out what kind of emotion she had towards Zackary."With such hesitation, it looks like you like him." Danica answered for her.Hearing that, Shirley hurriedly shook her head, "No ... No, I don't know him at all. How could I like him?""Who says you have to like someone after know him? Don't you know that love at first sight? I like someone just by seeing him once. You and my brother have met many times already, right? Like is one kind of feeling, which is ..."Danica said as she racked her

    "Get in the car." His tone was commanding, not allowing her to resist at all. The hand holding her wrist was also very strong, making it impossible for her to break free.Pulling her to the secondary driving seat, he released her and opened the car door. She was involuntarily pushed into the car by him.Her entire body was completely drenched, and the rain instantly drenched the seat.Zackary turned around and walked to the side of Driver. He put away the umbrella, and threw it in the back seat, then sat on the Driver himself.Zackary started the car and drove forward. She looked at him coldly and with a face full of displeasure, and said, "What are you doing? I don't need you to send me off.""Is that so?" he asked quietly."Yes, stop the car and let me go." Shirley didn't even fasten her seatbelt as she shouted directly.However, Zackary ignored her and focused on driving."Did you hear me tell you to stop the car? Who do you

    Shirley followed Zackary out of the villa and they walked along the main road.At that time, no one said a word. Occasionally, the buzz of insects could be heard; it was extremely quiet."Today's weather is really good." After an unknown period of time, Shirley felt that this quiet atmosphere was simply too strange, so she started to say something.As soon as she finished speaking, it started to drizzle."Looks like you like rain." Zackary looked at her, amused.Under the dim yellow light, his face was covered by a layer of hazy mist. His sharp blade-like facial features had also softened quite a bit. In addition to the smile in the depths of his eyes, he looked increasingly handsome and charming.This time, she felt awkward. The gods were not giving her face, and they just slapped her in the face every now and then.Shirley wanted to bite off her tongue for a moment."There's a pavilion ahead. Take shelter from the rain." Zack

    What did that mean?Did he do something wicked outside again?Or had he killed someone again?With that thought in mind, she immediately shook her head and told herself, no. Although Zackary looked very fierce, he was definitely not the type of person who would do whatever he wanted and disregard human life.Didn't Danica say that before?That time when he saved her, it was his first time killing someone.Clearly, he was not a murderous demon lord.She had already misunderstood him once, so she couldn't misunderstand him again."Never mind, you don't want to tell me, and I'm too lazy to ask." She pretended not to mind as she shrugged. She turned her head to look outside the window again to ease the slight disappointment in her heart.Actually, deep down, she still wanted to understand a bit more about Zackary.She didn't know why, but even though she knew he was dangerous, she couldn't help but want to investigate

    Ronald nodded his head, "However, it seems that Asher did not lose willingly."So you came to be his bodyguard? He can order people around. "On one hand, Shirley admired Zackary's intelligence and on the other hand, she was slightly contemptuous of his methods.If he wants to buy a company from someone else, isn't he going to do it openly? It had to be a hostile takeover."I came to see your boyfriend." Ronald said with a half-joking and half-serious tone."...Not a real boyfriend." Shirley was a little speechless. Zackary really had a big mouth, selling her out the moment he opened his mouth."What's going on?" Ronald naturally did not believe that this girl would find a boyfriend without a word, and did not let him know either.Thus, Shirley told Ronald about what happened between her and Teagan.After Ronald heard this, he muttered to himself for a moment, "So, you believe that he simply wants to cooperate with you?""Believ

    Zackary probably did not expect to see Shirley here, as his deep eyes slightly narrowed. "So it's Ms. Pollard. Are you interested in wine, too?""No, I came over with a friend to take a look." Shirley replied."A friend?" Zackary seemed to be very interested in her friend, as he revealed a playful expression."It's a boyfriend." Teagan saw that the expression in Zackary's eyes when he looked at Shirley was a little strange.Shirley was suddenly embraced by him like this. She felt a little uncomfortable and was about to struggle, but then she realized that everyone was looking at them and that she was currently his girlfriend. She did not push him away, but had an awkward smile instead."So Ms. Pollard is looking for a boyfriend. Congratulations." His smile and words of congratulations seemed to come from the bottom of his heart.But when Shirley heard it, she felt that it was a bit ear-piercing."Thank you, Mr. Rowe. Since you are Shi

    In the evening, Teagan came to Pollard family to pick Shirley up. Mrs. Pollard was very happy and her originally depressed and unhappy face finally revealed a smile.Shirley changed into a set of normal small clothes and went downstairs. When Teagan saw this, he asked, "Don't you have any lively clothes?""Lively?" Shirley was startled, and then looked at Teagan's clothes, which was not an official suit, but a casual attire. She was a little curious, "Isn't it a royal ball?""It's a royal ball, but it's not suitable for business parties. You don't need to dress up so formally. You can wear whatever you like or the comfortable ones." Teagan said.After Shirley heard this, she immediately turned around and went upstairs. She changed into a jacket and jeans, carrying a small backpack, with her hair tied up neatly in a ponytail.Teagan sized her up, his eyes full of praise."Beautiful!" As he said that, he turned and bid farewell to Mrs. Pollard

    Pollard Group.Inside Office of the President, Shirley Pollard had just finished her morning's work and was preparing to go out for lunch.Secretary Lorena Lopez walked in with a bunch of fresh flowers in her hands. She smiled widely and said, "Ms. Pollard, Mr. Solis has sent you flowers again."Shirley looked at the bouquet of fiery red roses, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "I already told him not to send me off. Why wouldn't he listen?""Looks like Mr. Solis really likes you, Ms. Pollard, and that's why he chased after you like this and was unwilling to give up." Lorena said, covering her mouth as she laughed, "Then why don't you accept these flowers?""Put it in the vase on your table. The next time he sends flowers over, just tell him that I'm allergic to flowers." Shirley shook her head speechlessly.Teagan Solis was the one she was forced to go date with by her mother.
