For some reason, Alanna felt like she was being held in someone's arms..For the first time in her dreams, the familiar warmth and scent stopped her from crying.Hades frowned at the woman in his arms. After a while, his fingers couldn't help but brush against her cheek."I'm sorry."Alanna moved slightly but didn't wake up. She instinctively snuggled into his embrace.Hades sighed and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead. He then left before dawn.Upon arriving downstairs, he looked up at the window upstairs.After a moment, he made a phone call."Mark, did you realize your system has been hacked?"…As soon as Chelsey arrived at the hospital and got out of the car, she saw Michel chatting with a beautiful female doctor not far away.She couldn't help but roll her eyes. Then, she walked inside.Seeing her approaching, Michel hurriedly rran up to her."Have you eaten?""Yes," Chelsey replied impatiently."What did you eat?"Chelsey glanced back at him, and Michel chuck
At first, Chelsey thought she was hearing things.Sugar daddy? Snapping to her senses, she slapped Michel in the face.Michel was stunned."Chelsey, what are you doing?""Slapping you! Michel, you'd better stay away from me from now on!"Chelsey said and got out of the car.Michel quickly followed. But before he could say anything, Anton appeared from inside.Seeing the two, Anton chuckled."Dr. Soltz, Mr. Luther, what a coincidence." Although his face bore bruises, he acted as if nothing had happened last night. Perhaps he was used to acting.Chelsey's expression stiffened, while Michel chuckled beside her. "Does your face still hurt, Dr. Presley?"Anton gently touched the bruise on his cheek and looked at Chelsey. "Dr. Soltz, don't you want to explain what happened last night?"Chelsey glanced at him. "Dr. Presley, it's time for my shift. Excuse me."With that, she entered the hospital.Anton frowned slightly. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.He didn't expect Che
He observed that dangerously handsome, stern face.It was quite unexpected for someone to associate him with a dog.Alanna was probably the first person who dared to call Hades with such names.Hades' face darkened, his gaze fixed on Paul."Paul, stop getting involved in useless stuff if you want to work with me. Otherwise, I can replace you immediately! Also, don't go anywhere near her. If you put her in danger, I won't spare you!"With that, Hades turned and walked out.Once outside, he still couldn't control himself and drove to Chelsey's house.Leaning back in his seat, he lit a cigarette. Just then, he saw Alanna walking out. She was still on the phone with Grayson.When she hung up the phone, she briefly paused. Then, she directly entered her car.As the car pulled out, Hades followed.After arriving at the company and parking her car, Alanna glanced at Hades. She then walked into the corridor.Hades quickly grabbed her. "Stay away from Paul. He's up to no good."Alan
Hades paused.He glanced at Renee."Who sent Ms. Jacinto the flowers?"Renee smiled at Hades."It should be one of Ms. Jacinto's admirers. They send them every day."Hades' face darkened. "Is it Tavis or Shane?"Renee shrugged. "I don't know, but Ms. Jacinto always looks happy when she receives them. Mr. Florentine, I'm sure you know Ms. Jacinto has been through a lot lately. These flowers are the only thing that can make her smile."Hades remained silent as he looked at Renee.Renee quickly chuckled. "Mr. Florentine, I'll get back to work."Hades stood frozen to the ground for a moment. He then took out his phone and made a call."Send a bouquet of lisianthus to JM Group every day from now on. Make sure they're the best."Hades didn't go to Alanna's office.He knew he wouldn't get a warm reception if he went now.So, he simply headed downstairs.Watching Hades leave, Alanna's grip on the pen tightened."Ms. Jacinto, I just heard Mr. Florentine say that he'll send you fl
Holly was determined to humiliate Alanna tonight.She wanted to sleep with Hades while the other men assaulted Alanna. The thought excited her, and she couldn't wait to act on it right away.Meanwhile, Zachary's eyes turned cold as he looked at Holly.Hades saw their expressions.He took out his phone and sent a message.Paul's phone beeped. He glanced down and said to Alanna."I have something to attend to."Alanna nodded and walked away.A few wealthy women were standing together, chatting and laughing.Joana's gaze had been following Alanna. After a while, she approached her."Ms. Jacinto."Alanna turned her head and saw the elegant woman with a smile on her face. She was wearing a white dress, which complemented her temperament.This was Alanna's second encounter with Joana.They met the last time at the Florentines' patriarch's birthday banquet. Back then, she didn't even get a chance to see Joana's face.However, given her current relationship with Hades, it seemed
Alanna paused, her face instantly darkening.Hades chuckled. "Quite the show, isn't it?"Alanna looked at him. "Did you send me the message?"Hades pinched her cheek. "You didn't know it was me, yet you still dared to come."Alanna brushed his hand away."It doesn't matter who sent it."Hades laughed. "Ally, you always know how to get under my skin."Alanna glanced at him. She was about to say something when fireworks suddenly burst outside the window.She paused and fell silent."Don't you think they're beautiful?"Alanna remained silent briefly."Yes, they are.""Are they more beautiful than the fireworks I arranged for you back then?"Alanna pursed her lips and said nothing.Hades laughed and didn't say anything more.The two stood quietly in the room, watching the magnificent fireworks outside.Listening to the inappropriate noises coming from the next room, Alanna seemed somewhat uncomfortable.It was indeed unpleasant to eavesdrop on someone being intimate.Hade
Alexander's face turned livid. "That despicable woman!""Grandpa, what should we do? I don't want to marry Zachary."Alexander's face grew grim.Many people had witnessed tonight's events. If Holly refused to marry Zachary, her reputation would be ruined.Yet, he was unwilling to let his precious granddaughter marry an illegitimate child like Zachary."Don't worry. Grandpa will get justice for you!"Alexander left in a hurry.After exiting the room, Alanna bid goodbye to Paul and left.But Hades was suddenly summoned by Alexander.Hades smiled. "Congratulations, Mr. Maxwell Senior. It seems your granddaughter's marriage is settled now. You don't need to push her onto others anymore."Alexander nearly choked on his own anger."Hades, Holly is your fiancée! She's been assaulted, and that's all you can say?"Hades' face darkened. "Mr. Maxwell Senior, have you grown a face thick enough to match your age? How can you be so shameless?"Alexander almost fainted from anger. "Hades
Hades looked at Alanna.Wearing a tight-fitting sweater that accentuated her curves, she sat in front of the desk. Pregnancy and childbirth had not changed her body. If anything, she was more alluring now.Besides, she seemed more dominant.She must have been planning to act against the Florentines for a while now.She had been waiting for the right moment.Although he had depleted much of the Florentines' resources, the intricate roots of the family and the support of the patriarch made it difficult to take down the Florentines completely.Alanna knew that a scandal involving the family head would shake the family to its core.Hades looked at the woman before him, his eyes filled with complexity.He had thought that besides cooperating with Paul, she didn't have any plans in mind during this period.He had been relieved, believing she had finally settled down.Although her closeness with Paul still bothered him, he felt he had her actions under control.Yet, just as he let
