Sean's obsessive desire peaked after he had spent that night with Angeline four years ago. He felt the urge to keep Angeline by his side all the time, spending every moment with her. However, Sean knew that Angeline's feelings for him were far from affectionate at the time.His concern grew because, before getting involved with Angeline four years earlier, he had encountered a former subordinate of his biological father, and he was worried that he would put Angeline at risk. After Robert had taken Angeline away four years ago, Sean held back his emotions with his calmness and sanity and kept all his feelings to himself. He vowed not to inquire about Angeline in the slightest.Everything seemed to have changed since the previous night when Angeline had wrapped her arms around his neck. Her simple plea had nearly made Sean lose his sanity. He had become relentless. Sean refused to let go of her, no matter how she cried or pleaded. He was like a fierce python, consuming her comple
Sean's gaze was intense. It felt as if he wanted to devour Angeline. With each passing moment, his desire grew more robust, filled with a predatory hunger. Angeline had no doubts that she might not survive the night if she admitted her feelings for Sean.Her breathing steadied slightly. Then, Angeline said, "I'll consider it carefully and give you an answer at Mr. Lawson Senior's birthday banquet."Sean's gaze was predatory as he looked at Angeline. He cradled the back of her head and initiated another kiss. Her head tilted back, causing her scalp to tingle. Yet, uncontrollably, her hands wrapped around his neck. She reciprocated his advances.Suddenly, she found herself lifted off the ground. They didn't stop kissing. Sean held Angeline in his arms and allowed her to straddle him. He pressed her waist firmly against himself.As Angeline noticed a subtle change in Sean, she clung to his shoulders. Her legs felt too weak to sit properly on his. She dodged his passionate kisses.Her
Angeline had watched the laboratory videos countless times. Heather's hands were steady. Each experiment nearly perfectly replicated the previous one. Yet, the experimental data still showed issues.Angeline suspected the experimental equipment might be the cause.Today, Angeline had to go out no matter what. There was only a week left until Robert's birthday banquet. She needed to prepare a birthday gift for Robert.Robert lacked nothing in terms of rare treasures, but it was the thought that mattered. She knew Robert liked porcelain. A few days ago, she had spoken on the phone with Eddie. During the call, Eddie mentioned releasing some new products soon.Therefore, she planned to visit Eddie's porcelain studio today. She hoped to see if his new works were available.She had just changed her clothes when the doorbell rang. Angeline walked over to the monitor. To her surprise, it was Robert and Asher. Instinctively, she turned to check the living room. She worried about leaving
Although Angeline might not have made her mark at Lawson Global yet, Vitality Biotech alone was proof enough of her capabilities. This was why Robert felt confident in positioning Angeline at Lawson Global.Heather, the head of Vitality's Yuropean division, often mentioned the founder in her speeches after Vitality Biotech's Marvonia hearing. This sparked intense curiosity about Vitality Biotech's founder.People are drawn to strength. As long as Angeline was exceptional, she could command anywhere. It was the reason for Robert's insistence on providing Angeline resources to start her own venture for revenge.Fortunately, Angeline exceeded his expectations. She performed even better than he had imagined. As a result, Robert wasn't caught off guard when he learned Sean planned to leave the family and Lawson Global.Angeline remained silent with her eyes downcast."My original goal of showing up today was to discuss the Hooper family's eldest son with you. I wanted you to meet him a
In any case, domestic records wouldn't reveal anything about her marriage to Sean. "I came today specifically to discuss this matter with you. I didn't want you to be caught off guard. It's good for you to be prepared," Robert said as he stood up and leaned on his cane. Angeline quickly reached out to assist him.Even though Robert appeared spry for his age, signs of weariness were evident. "I'm fine!" Robert insisted while patting Angeline's hand. He walked towards the door while supporting himself with his cane.As Angeline escorted Robert to the door, Asher immediately pulled out a stack of documents from his briefcase and handed them to Angeline. "These include information about the eldest Hooper son and the company's current board of directors and executives. Ms. Emmerson, you must familiarize yourself with these board members and executives during this time.""Understood." Angeline took the documents."I'll be leaving then. Jessica has been in good spirits lately
"I think Ingrid might be trying to get Simon to help Fletcher Corporation through its troubles!" Danny said. "I plan to stir things up tonight. Do you want to come and add to the fun? Simon admires you even without knowing you're the founder of Vitality Biotech. If he finds out, who knows, he might pursue you. It could be a chance for Xavier and Yasmine to obtain a stepdad!""Do you want me to file a complaint to Heather?" Angeline asked."My bad, my bad! I was wrong!" Danny quickly backed down. "So, are you coming tonight?""I might," Angeline said. "But let's not mention the founder thing to anyone.""Got it! Simon will be thrilled to know you're joining us tonight."After hanging up, Angeline checked her watch. She needed to hurry to Eddie's studio.She changed her clothes and drove to the suburban location of Eddie's studio. As she parked, she unexpectedly encountered Ingrid and her agent, Linda."Angeline!" Ingrid was surprised to see Angeline here. She found her
"Ms. Davis, how could you say things like that? You don't know how amazing Angeline is," Ingrid said earnestly. Ingrid, who once emulated and followed Angeline's footsteps, knew all too well just how formidable Angeline was."You're always so naive. You boost others' morale at your own expense! Aren't you impressive too? You're now an international superstar!" Linda chided while tapping Ingrid's forehead lightly. "Let's go."Eddie noticed Angeline immediately upon her entering the studio. He was sitting in a rocking chair, sipping his tea. "Ah, Angeline!" he exclaimed. Eddie stood up and greeted Angeline with a smile while still wearing his work apron."Mr. Reynolds, how are you?" Angeline asked smilingly. She walked over and supported Eddie by the arm."I'm very well, thanks to you," Eddie replied cheerfully. "You convinced me to participate in that medical trial. My old body wouldn't have lasted this long if you hadn't." He chuckled and pulled Angeline to take a sea
Ingrid pulled Linda's arm and apologized to Mark. "I'm sorry, my friend is a bit anxious. This porcelain is a gift for the second son of the Norwalk family. It's also a way to promote our national culture. So, we really hope to obtain a piece by Mr. Reynolds. Could you please speak to Mr. Reynolds and check if we could present an available piece? We'd be very grateful!"Linda's attitude starkly contrasted with Ingrid's plea. Ingrid was the spokesperson for the Norwalk family, and intending the gift for Simon somewhat swayed Mark.He nodded. "Please wait here. I'll go ask him."When Mark left, Linda turned to the young man who initially greeted them. "Wasn't there a lady who came in before us? Why isn't she here?""Oh, that lady," the young man replied with a smile. "She's a close friend of Mr. Reynolds and has gone to have tea with him."Linda was taken aback and then looked at Ingrid, her brows furrowing slightly. "What's the deal with Angeline? How is she connected to
