Angeline sat on the couch with her legs crossed and hands resting on her knees. Although she was seated, she had a condescending look at Ingrid that made the latter feel humiliated. "Love is a matter for two people. You should never be the only one contributing to it," Angeline advised. "I don't think I've ever wronged Ned in our relationship. Plus, regardless of how he treated me, I protected him with my life during the accident. So, Ned is the one who owes me for causing me to be in a vegetative state." "But regardless, didn't you love Ned before? How could you be so ruthless to Ned and leave no space for him? Is all your love for each other a mirage? Are you truly this heartless, Angie?" Ingrid cried, tears streaming down her cheeks. "Please, Angie. I'm begging you. I'm returning Ned to you. Could you let him go?" Ingrid tried to pay for her mistakes. Everything started because Tommy was addicted to gambling, which dragged Yates Group, then Fletcher Corporation, into this mess
"How… How could you be so cruel?" Ingrid sobbed. Ingrid had spent years in the entertainment world. She wouldn't be this naive not to know how cruel reality could be. Ingrid had always been a faux naïf. She was an expert in playing dumb and let her agent, Linda, deal with her mess. She was used to using this method to achieve her goals. However, one thing Angeline believed was that Ingrid truly loved Ned. "Cruel? Then what should I do?" Angeline mocked and chuckled. "Repent and be desperate when Ned left me, then welcome him wholeheartedly when he wants to return? Should I give everything to him? "Think, Ms. Dalton. I'm a human, but not someone else's accessory." Ingrid looked up at Angeline in anger after listening to her chuckle. She bawled, "How could you laugh at this moment? You never loved Ned! If only Ned could spare me half or even a third of his love for you, I would die for him! As long as Ned could remember me!" "You're foolish to die for a man. What good wil
Jamie knocked on the door and entered Angeline's office. He put down an outline for an interview before her and said, "Ms. Lawson, Mr. Lawson had agreed on an interview with Caroline Vasquez, a host from the DBC, about Lawson Global. "Originally, Mr. Lawson was the one to be interviewed, but he was occupied with something and asked you to be interviewed in his place." The DBC was a national TV station, and Caroline Vasquez was a well-known host who had won The Best TV Host for eight consecutive years. She had even hosted the opening ceremony of the Polympic Games. For these reasons alone, together with the benefit the interview would bring to Lawson Global, Angeline had to squeeze out the time to conduct the interview even if her schedule was tight. It would make sense for Sean to accept the interview in the first place. But Angeline knew the reason Sean asked her wasn't that he didn't have the time, but because he was giving her a chance to show herself to the public so that p
Lawson Global even included at the bottom of their announcement: "This is merely Lawson Global's business collaboration. Please refrain from making any speculations. Thank you." An uproar stirred up in the comment section. GoldenPouTaeToe replied: "Damn, you're telling me they didn't do it on purpose? I don't believe it!" FreedomBoi182 replied: "Five minutes after Marvonia made their tweet, Lawson Global announced their collab. Look at what they wrote, 'We've collaborated with Ica's national treasure, Norwalk Corporation.' Holy shit, they even said national treasure! They're slapping Marvonia's face! That's so bold of Lawson Global!"SleepIsLife replied: "Please, Lawson Global had always been bold, and you're calling this bold? Didn't Lawson Global's Mr. Lawson leave Marvonia saying, 'If Marvonia doesn't want to sell my chips, I'll do it myself!' That time when he successfully conquered the chip market after three years of enduring Marvonia's pursuit was a prouder moment! This?
Jamie looked toward where Angeline and Lenny were looking, then whispered, "Ms. Lawson, should I move back the next agenda on your schedule?" "No, it's okay." Angeline took another look at Ned before entering the car and leaving. To be honest, Ned had no bad intention to follow Angeline, nor did he want to disturb her life. He just wanted to get closer to Angeline, even a little bit. After seeing Angeline's car pass by before his eyes, Ned leaned back against his car in disappointment. He knew he couldn't follow her again as her bodyguard would easily throw him off. Before Ned left, he saw Simon coming out of the restaurant. Although Simon's phone rang non-stop, he only looked at the number without picking it up and continued talking to his assistant. Ned thought about Ingrid and clenched his fist. Ingrid had never failed Ned for the times they were together when he had lost his memory. Given how destitute Ned had become, the least he could do currently was to bear re
"Did Ingrid tell you the truth?" Ned asked. Simon shook his head. Remembering Simon had a meal with Angeline frequently, Ned gulped and then asked, "So… it was Angie?" "Not Angie, either." Simon looked at Ned with jealousy. "Angie has always kept her promise—especially her promises with you."I guess she never mentioned it to me because she had promised you to keep it a secret. If it wasn't for Marvonia's Minister of Commerce's visit to Ica, she would've probably stopped Danny from telling me you're her ex-husband." Simon sipped his coffee before continuing, "You're a lucky man, Mr. Fletcher. Not only do you have a love of an exceptional woman like Angie, but you also have a kind, charismatic woman like Ingrid who loves you unconditionally. It's as if you're the chosen one!" Ned's eyes turned red. He picked up his cup of coffee with shaking hands and took a sip. "But alas, I've thrown this love given by God away. Angie… she doesn't love me anymore." "But Ingrid still does,
Ned wondered if Angeline was faking it.Because Ned had hurt Angeline, she used the same method as revenge. If so, Ned would have to thank heaven. He would accept any kind of revenge from Angeline except for her not loving him anymore. "So, I think you should talk to Angie, Mr. Fletcher. Perhaps there's still hope for Fletcher Corporation," Simon advised. Ned shook his head without hesitation. He wiped off his tears of joy and said, "If Angeline will feel better from making Fletcher Corporation bankrupt, I'm okay with it! As long as it can ease her anger!" Dumbfounded, Simon laughed. "Oh, Mr. Fletcher. I think you're not suitable as a businessman!" "Perhaps. Angie is always my top priority!" Ned replied. Simon's assistant came over and whispered to him. Simon nodded and said, "I have to go, Mr. Fletcher. I've known the truth about who saved my life. What we need to do next is try not to expose the truth during the contract period. "As an insider, I hope you can keep this
The elevator stopped at Brayden's floor. He held the door open with one hand and showed the way to Angeline. "I'm sorry, Mr. Green. I'm not interested to know. Sean can tell me if he wants to, but I won't ask too if he doesn't. I trust him completely, just like how he trusts me. "If you'll excuse me, we shall meet again next time." Seeing how stubborn Angeline was, Brayden gritted his teeth in anger.Lenny stood before Angeline to shield her and grabbed Brayden's hand on the elevator door. "I'm sorry, Mr. Green."Brayden gave a cold stare at Lenny before putting down his hand. "Okay, fine. But I'm telling you that I feel bad for you because Sean refused to tell you his real identity and the consequences. Who knows what trouble you might be involved in because of him." "Thank you for nothing," Angeline replied coldly. As the elevator door closed, Brayden blocked it again with his hand. "Oh, yeah. Sean was injured, and it was a strange injury. Perhaps you can ask him how he w
