Hannah immediately turned around to disappear from her sight as if she was reprieved.Heather withdrew her gaze with impatience, but something seemed to shine through her eyes. She was stunned and looked over to see that Hannah had already trotted away and was about to disappear from her sight."Stop right there!" Heather stood up abruptly as she snapped.Hannah was rooted to the ground, startled, with her shoulder trembling. "Heidi...?"However, Heather ignored her as she stood in front of Hannah, and stared at her firmly.To be exact, Heather was staring at her ears.Hannah subconsciously raised her hand and touched her ear as she felt guilty about being stared at...Her heart skipped a beat. "Heidi, I-I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to do it. I'll take it down right away..."Hannah trembled as she was about to take off the earrings, but Heather was a step ahead and yanked them down aggressively..."Ah!" Hannah screamed in pain with her bleeding ears.She trembled from the pain bu
It was supposed to be two separate bodies, but they had become one synchronized body. Heather was still herself, but Hannah was no longer herself.The pain in her ears had already gone numb, the bleeding had stopped, and she still felt an inexplicable sense of joy.Today, Hannah felt that her body belonged to her. She could finally be the master of her own for a moment, and she could do whatever she wanted, even piercing her ears, even if it hurt. It was her own choice.Heather gradually calmed down. She was dazzled by the rage just now. How did Hannah dare to disobey and pierce her ears? When Heather calmed down, she knew it was useless to get angry. She still needed Hannah's help to do things that she did not want or were inconvenient.Slowly putting down her hand, Heather put the earring into Hannah's hand. "Put this thing away, and don't lose it!"As if she was released, Hannah stretched out her hand happily. She carefully looked at the earring that still had her blood in her
"Tomorrow..." Ralph was overjoyed. He was about to agree when he realized she would gain the upper hand if he did so right away, so he deliberately said prolongedly, "I'm afraid tomorrow...""Why? You can't make it tomorrow?""It's not that. It's just a little inconvenient. Tomorrow my house..."Before he could say anything more, he heard her say, "Let's just forget about it."Then, Before Ralph could suggest to change the date, Heather said, "I can find someone else."Ralph immediately panicked as she was about to hang up. "Don't worry. I'm free tomorrow. I'm free!""You're free?""Yes, I'm free!" He said this while nodding constantly, afraid Heather would change her mind."Don't force yourself. Didn't you say it was inconvenient at home?" The voice was indifferent.Sweat dripped down Ralph's forehead as he continued, "No, it's very convenient. How could it be inconvenient? I was joking with you. Look..."He did not know why this woman was so capricious that he could not figu
"Oh, you realized?" Heather snorted and did not even bother to glance at them. She stared at the wine in her glass. "You failed to take down a declining Lodge family and even returned injured. If you know your mistake, you should pay it with your life."Shivers ran through their veins. "We beg you! Please spare our lives!""Enough!" She put down her glass of wine heavily. "If I want to punish you, you will not live today! Your lives are still useful for me to complete some tasks!"She then commanded, "Get up!"After carefully looking at her to ensure it was not irony, the two stood up.Who would have thought that the famous and intimidating Light-Shadow Killers would be so humble in front of a woman?"I have a task for you. You’ll sneak into the Russell family mansion and find something for me tonight," she said unhurriedly."Master, I thought it wasn’t there?" One of them could not help asking."Just listen to my order. Do I need you to remind me whether it is there?" Heather
"There is nothing to regret." He hugged her gently from behind with his palms covering her belly. "Only you guys are the most important people to me now."In terms of blood relationships, the Russell family was indeed very close. They were also his family, but since he was a child, he did not feel any warmth from them. The only little bit of warmth he felt was also because of his efforts. Only then his grandfather acknowledged his existence.What the members of the Russell family did later for wealth and power disappointed him to the core. Now, only the people in front of him were the most cherished.Lily was about to say something else when his cell phone rang. "Hello?"She did not hear him say anything, but his face became more serious, and he unconsciously relaxed his hand that held Lily. Lily glanced at him and got up to pour a glass of water so he could talk on the phone.When she was back after drinking water and resting for a while, Alexander had finished talking on the
"Got it!" She raised her hand, pushed his head away, and smiled. "You are so long-winded Why didn't I notice it before? Also, I'm wondering, are you concerned about me or the little one in my belly? Alex, I'm getting jealous!""Of course, I’m concerned about both of you. You are both my precious ones!" He smiled and pulled her into his arms, kissed her cheek, and could not help kissing her again.She was his sweetheart, and he would protect her from any harm! Alexander secretly made up his mind....Thieves broke into the mansion before dawn and made a mess.It was obvious that it had been tampered with, but the thieves were still loose. It seemed that no valuables were missing. Everyone was checking their things to see if they had not noticed anything was missing. Another group of people was looking at the security tape.It was terrible!How they could sneak into the mansion quietly without the surveillance capturing any clues, and no one noticing it, but almost everyone's bedr
"Insiders?!" Margaret almost jumped up. "Who? Who could it be? There’s a thief in our family. We must find it out!"While she spoke, she looked around as if she wanted to find out who the insider was."Mom, don't get agitated. This thief did not want money or our life, so he must be looking for something." Ralph thought for a while and said, "What do you think it could be?"Margaret frowned and thought for a while. She seemed to think of something. "You mean..."Before she could speak, she stopped abruptly when she saw Ralph's eyes. "I'm not the thief. How should I know what he is looking for?"Then she looked at Alexander unhappily. "Alex, you can’t ignore us when such a big incident happened to the Russell family. It would destroy our reputation. You must find this thief, and don't let him go easily! ""Grandma, are you sure you haven’t lost anything important?" Alexander saw everything in Ralph’s eyes when they exchanged looks. He knew that they had something to say.It wa
"Okay. Slow down and drive safely on the road!" Margaret said with concern. She had always been extremely fond of her youngest son. Seeing that this marriage was about to happen, it must be perfect.After thinking about it, she looked at Alexander, who had just hung up the phone, and cleared her throat. "There's nothing you can do here. You've seen it. So, head on back to the company."After all, it was the eldest daughter of the Riggs family they were talking. Especially when the marriage was not official. Margaret did not want anything to go wrong. Especially this grandson of hers was simply the most unstable ticking time bomb in her eyes.Unexpectedly, Alexander curled his lips. "I have already made arrangements for the company. I’ll stay here today to accompany you.""I don't want your companionship!" Margaret blurted and yelled. She felt she was being inappropriate. Then she said slowly, "I mean. There are still many things for you to do in the company. The family business
