It seemed like he had to clean up the mess she made after all. He motioned Finn to pass him his laptop.Outside, Jack’s sinister tone sounded again. “I almost forgot that you’re a hacker, Angeline. Still, I never expected you to be able to break through Ares Enterprises’ internal network.” Jack felt extremely lucky, for he had finally gotten hold of Angeline’s Achilles heel. After all, if she could steal Ares Enterprises’ funds, she could also steal their classified documents. That would put Ares Enterprises in a passive position. Jack was dead set on forcing Angeline to a corner. “Just wait for a demand letter of a lawsuit, Angeline. I’m suing you for endangering my company’s profits.”Angeline was only concerned about where Sera would end up. “As per our agreement, Jack, I’ve already transferred a billion to your account. Shouldn’t you honor your words and let me bring my sister home now?” Jack’s expression looked constipated. Despite standing at the edge of danger, all A
Angeline could not help but feel jealous of the female doctor as her gaze fell on Jay’s slender long legs. She too wanted to admire his legs up close and touch them from time to time. Jay’s eyes fell on the small figure by the doorframe, her lovestruck gaze tinting his eyes with mirth. “Why are you back?” He pulled a long face. Angeline entered the room. She had not dared to ask him straight up as there were outsiders in the room. Rooted in place, she did not know where to put her eyes. Jay turned to the doctor. “Please leave us alone.” Following the doctor’s exit, Jay stared at Angeline. “How can I help you?” he asked despite already knowing the answer.Angeline stuttered slowly, “I… I’m here… to… uh… ask you… if you were the person who helped me—” Impatient, Jay interrupted her with an answer, “It was me.” Afraid that doing so would lead her on and allow her to dream, his chiseled features reverted to their habitual expression of indifference and unfamiliarity. “The te
The woman dove straight into Jay’s arms with a coquettish proclamation, “I missed you, Jay.” To which Jay cupped her cheek and replied lovingly with mirth in his eyes, “What took you so long?” Angeline was stricken by his gentleness with her, such gentleness that once belonged to her and only her. Yet right then, he was giving it to this woman in front of her instead. Angeline’s eyes blurred as she stood dazedly in place. After a passionate round of hugging with Jay did the woman finally acknowledge Angeline. The tall woman walked over to Angeline. Her enchanting figure coupled with the energetic spirit in her eyes crushed Angeline’s short-statured presence. “Is this chick your little ex-girlfriend, Jay?” Jay nodded. “Yeah.” “Other than her face, I don’t see much else of her that’s of appeal.” Angeline’s emotions jumped between anger and humiliation. It was just that the boxy clothing she wore happened to hide her figure. “What interesting taste you used to have
Angeline clenched her fists and kicked down the cubicle doors, shocking the girls inside to hug each other in fear. “Who are you?” Angeline replied, infuriated, “I’m Lil Josie’s elder sister.” The woman by the name of Elsa scoffed and went back to being arrogant. “You’re Josie’s sister? And here I thought you were some big shot. What, are you angry that I slapped your sister? Then tell the director. Ask him to change the script too if you think you’re so great.” Angeline took a menacing step closer. “I may not have the ability to have the director change the script, but I can make sure you won’t be a female lead anymore.” At that, Angeline’s fist met Elsa’s face. “Ah! How dare you hit me? Do you have any idea who I am?” Elsa tried her best to shield her face. Her good friends had already escaped off to watch by the sidelines, afraid that Angeline’s fist would hit them too. After all, appearances mattered a lot in this line of business.Elsa’s close friends quickly went to re
The director pointed at Angeline. “It’s her. Please be careful. She can fight.” Jean trailed his gaze along the director’s hand, and it fell on Angeline.Seeing Angeline and Josie, Jean immediately approached them with excitement. “Hey, ladies, what are two of you beauties doing here?” Taking into consideration Josephine's dignity, Angeline quickly reminded him with a whisper, “Don’t expose our identities.” Jean halted in confusion. “Understood.” “That director and the female lead over there bullied my sister, Josie. Do what you deem is best,” Angeline said.Jean’s expression immediately darkened. He turned around and sent a kick at the insignificant director’s abdomen. “Do you know who she is? How could you just bully her when you don’t know anything?” The director immediately got on his knees and begged, “I’m sorry, Master Jean. I must be blind. It won’t happen again.” Seeing the scene take a 180 from what was in her favor, Elsa realized that she had made a grave mist
Sharing a look with Angeline, Josephine piped up, “It must be my brother fetching you.” Angeline felt it too good to be true, especially with the news of Jay’s new girlfriend this morning. The idea of him changing his mind so quickly did not sit right with her. Josephine, however, pushed Angeline into the sports car. “Go! I knew my brother still loved you.” Angeline did not let go of Josephine’s hand. “Something feels off about this, Josie.” Josephine replied, “I’m pretty sure you’re just anxious. Fine, I’ll come with you.” Just like that, the two innocent misuses got into the stranger’s sports car that began to drive toward the direction of Garden Of A Diary. Josephine spoke, “See, Sis Angeline? He must be fetching you back to Garden Of A Diary.”Angeline found her previous worry dissipate as the car drove toward there. Soon, the duo felt the tell-tale signs of drowsiness and fell deeply asleep on each other’s shoulders. The sports car drove past Garden Of A Diary and
Josephine decided to provoke him. “Then I suppose you’ll allow me to call him?”Carson took his phone from his pocket and handed it to her. “Go ahead.” Josephine’s finger trembled as she dialed Jay’s number with difficulty. Josephine began to ramble as the call connected. “You have to come quickly, Jay, before Big Sis gets taken advantage of! We’ve been abducted and they want to have their way with Big Sis. You have to come quick and save Big Sis, Jay.” On the other end of the line, Jay found himself catching on to the danger of the situation from her moment of panic. “Where are you?” His tone was cold and thirsty for blood. It also revealed hints of unconcealable anxiety. “I don’t know.” Carson took his phone back and turned it off. “I’m sure Jay Ares will be able to find out your location if he truly is as magnificent as they say,” Carson stated. Josephine glared at Carson. “You’re all monsters.” Carson smiled. “Allow me to prepare. I’ve got to give your brother a
Jay could almost imagine the racy scene happening inside the room. Clenching his jaw, he turned to Finn. “I want him castrated.” Finn replied, “Aye.”With a wave of Carson’s hand, a group of guards immediately surrounded Finn and Jay. “I won’t let you go in.” Carson smiled wretchedly. Jay spoke to Finn in a sinister tone, “I can deal with these useless nobodies.” “Understood.” With the speed of a leopard, Finn jumped over the people and landed outside the circle with a flip. Carson stared at Finn who was currently scaling the walls. “Not bad.” Then, he picked up a rock-climbing instrument and chased after Finn Gallagher. The rest of the men surrounded Jay as their eyes fell on his legs. Internally, they shared the same thought. How could this crippled man call them useless nobodies? He must have quite a few tricks up his sleeves if he could make such an arrogant claim. However, they won in numbers and therefore bore no fear for Jay Ares. The few leaders shared a look a
