"Do you mind sharing what it is? I'll help you out if you need me," Nathaniel said. "It's just a minor issue. Don't worry. But sorry for canceling our plans today." Nathaniel sensed Angeline didn't want to say and said, "Well, just call me if you need me." After hanging up the phone and giving heads up to Taylor, Angeline had the driver send her to the Night Palace. Angeline didn't go inside when they arrived at the Night Palace's entrance. Instead, she stayed in the car and had her bodyguard talk to the bouncer, asking Brayden to come down and meet her. The bouncer glanced at Angeline's luxurious car before going in to inform Brayden, saying a woman of considerable background and status with the family name Lawson would like to meet him. Hearing it was a Lawson, Brayden instinctively knew it was Angeline. He furrowed his brows and grabbed his coat before going down. Brayden chuckled as he saw Angeline's unforgettable pretty look through the luxurious car parked by the si
Angeline ignored Brayden. She came to meet Brayden to confirm if Sean was safe. Since Sean was safe, Angeline felt relieved. "Excuse me. I'm leaving." Angeline looked at Brayden's arm that was leaning against the window. "Where're you going?" Brayden stepped back before asking. "Business trip," Angeline replied. "Don't you want to know where he is injured?" Brayden furrowed his brows in discontent. "Why don't you beg me to tell you?" Angeline stopped rolling up the window and asked, "Will you tell me if I beg you?" Brayden pressed his lips and said nothing, afraid that Angeline might actually beg him. Of course, he couldn't tell her. Sean had specifically instructed him not to. However, the injury was indeed not severe. Sean could've escaped unharmed if it weren't for the maniac with Melissa secretly bringing her to Menko. But since it was almost over, there was no point telling Angeline. After the window was rolled up, Angeline and her bodyguard's cars quickly disa
"What Tom wanted wasn't just for Brian to get punished but also Melissa." Angeline knew Thomas too well. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the risk to murder Melissa then. "Tom had seen the video of Melissa picking Tina from the candidates. So, please follow up on this matter." "I got this," Eric said. "And about the matter where Tom was injected with a nerve-damaging medicine in Keman's hospital, we can also file a lawsuit since we have sufficient evidence. We must have Brian explain himself," Angeline said. "Okay!" After hanging up the phone, Angeline looked out the window, clenching her phone. She remembered what Sean had told her: Emelia had always treated Melissa like her own daughter. Hence, he wouldn't let anything happen to Melissa under his watch and would ensure her safety and happiness. Sean's revenge plan should be over by now. Dexter was just an agent for Sean's real enemy. Now that Menko's side had been taken down, Dexter had been arrested even after fleeing.
"The next step for our laboratory is to find more patients for testing. Once they've passed the test, we can roll it out. And then, Vitality Biotech's technology won't be behind Lawson Global by too much. "And next, perhaps we could collaborate with Lawson Global in the medical microchip technology field." Danny changed the subject back to the main topic to stop Angeline from thinking about Thomas. It was thanks to Vitality Biotech Group that Lawson Global could roll out such a powerful AI while managing to keep it completely under wraps previously. …Angeline knew she would meet Sean soon but never expected it to be this soon. She had just returned from a business trip when Nathaniel called to ask her out on behalf of Sean. "You know, Hooper Group and Kingston Empire are working together, and our collaboration is becoming increasingly tight-knit now. After Dexter got arrested, the entire Kingston Empire fell onto Shane's hand. "So, although Shane said he had your secretary'
Nathaniel wasn't even in charge of Lawson Global and Hooper Group's new project. Instead, it was Aurelia. But Nathaniel agreed to Angeline's request unexpectedly. "I'll try my best for Lawson Global!" Nathaniel said. "Shane will arrive at 3 pm tomorrow. I'll book for dinner at 7:30 pm in one of the restaurants I own. I remember you liked how they prepared their seasonal vegetables! Then, I'll pick you up from work before the dinner." After hanging up the phone, Angeline continued immersing herself in her work. Before Angeline finished her work, Taylor came in with some documents, saying Hooper Group suddenly compromised a little for the collaboration project, so they had to review the contract again. Angeline never expected Nathaniel to take her casual remark about offering a concession for the collaboration project seriously. "Yeah, I knew about this. Have the legal team review the contract, then sign it if there's no issue," Angeline said. "Sure!" Taylor replied before
The restaurant belonged to Nathaniel, and everyone knew he booked the private room to serve a special guest. Sandra was assigned to serve them because of her good looks and close relationship with the manager. She originally planned to show a good impression to Nathaniel, but she felt a little something when she saw Sean, believing that it was fate to let them meet each other here. The first time she saw him, she felt that he was either rich or noble. Now that Sean had appeared in the private room as Nathaniel's guest, Sandra confirmed he was a wealthy aristocrat. If she could strike up a conversation with Sean and make him remember the car accident with her mother, who knew if something might happen between them? But out of Sandra's expectations, Nathaniel requested to change her out. It was okay if she got changed, but if the manager found out she was striking up a conversation with the guest, she might get fired. Striking a conversation with the guest was the biggest tab
"Look, Ms. Sterling! He knows me! He's that man's assistant! It was Mr. Powell right here who handled my mother's compensation when she was in the car accident!" Sandra held Taylor's shirt tightly. "I didn't lie, and I have no ulterior motives!" Angeline turned around and looked at the teary-eyed Sandra before asking Taylor, "What's wrong?" "She's the daughter of the woman who was in the car accident with Mr. Lawson," Taylor said. "Mr. Lawson believed the accident implicated her mother. Plus, their family wasn't well-off, so he had me pay for their medical expenses and handled the compensation matters with the at-fault driver." Hearing this, Sandra looked at Aria. "See, Ms. Sterling! The Mr. Lawson that Mr. Powell mentioned is the man inside the private room! I wasn't striking a conversation with the guest!" As Aria hesitated, Taylor furrowed his brows and said, "Ms. Snowden, Mr. Lawson has passed away." Sanda was shocked. "T-That can't be! I saw him in the private room!"
Before Angeline could say anything, Sean continued, "How about you consider it before giving me an answer, Ms. Lawson?" Angeline's phone rang when Sean finished speaking. She looked at it, and it was a call from Eric. Angeline was about to hang up when Sean said, "Are you not going to answer it to see what they say, Ms. Lawson?" "Judging by the way you phrase it, is it related to you, Mr. Kingston?" Angeline didn't rush to answer Eric's phone call. Sean smiled. "Answer the phone first, Ms. Lawson. Then, we'll talk." Angeline answered the phone, "What's wrong?" "The witness turned against us," Eric said solemnly. "Luckily, we used an anonymous account to transfer him the money. But he showed the proof of transaction, saying someone bribed him." After hearing that, Angeline understood everything. She replied, "I'm aware of this. I'll get back to you." Angeline looked at Sean after hanging up the call. "Mr. Kingston, you came prepared, huh?" "I never fight uncertain batt
