Shelton and I had just met each other for a few times. However rich he was, I surely couldn't take fifty million dollars from him for free!

And I didn't know who he really was.

If I got the money from him, it was unknown what would happen next.

However, Shelton didn't intend to take the check back. Moreover, he seemed to have seen through my mind as he said, "I don't have any ultimate motive for you. And I won't let you do anything for me because of this matter. In my eyes, this money is petty. As your neighbor, I am just giving you a hand."

......

Shelton added, "There's no interest. You can pay it back to me slowly."

Shelton added.

In fact, accepting Shelton's money would be the best solution.

After all, there was a deadline to repay a mortgage loan from the bank. If Seth couldn't repay, my house would be taken away. And Rosy surely would blame me at that time.

However, I believed that if Seth got the money, he surely could make a

    Ever since what happened last time, I seemed to have been granted some privilege in Towering High Group. This time, as soon as I arrived at the front desk, the staff there greeted me respectfully, "Mrs. President." Then she opened the door for me. In fact, I felt unworthy of this address. But I accepted it. I took the elevator to the top floor. As soon as I entered the corridor, I saw Patrick's assistant, Wilson, standing in the corner and making a phone call. It seemed that he didn't hear me coming. Although I was angry, I knew I was in the Towering High Group, where I couldn't barge in randomly. Out of courtesy, I stood on the side, planning to tell Wilson that I was looking for Patrick after Wilson finished his call. I waited aside and heard that Wilson lowered his voice and said while  holding the cell phone, "It's true that Mr. Cowell isn't here." I wasn't deliberately eavesdropping on Wilson. It was just that it was so quiet i

    I stood aside, acting like I was enjoying a good show. But Seth pointed to me and said, "My girlfriend is watching us there." The girl turned around and blushed when she saw me. Then she apologized to me, "I'm sorry." After that, she went back to her seat. Originally, a few colleagues of mine were also staring at Seth. When they heard Seth's words, they immediately turned to me and said, "Wow! Charlotte, why didn't you tell us earlier that you have such a handsome boyfriend?" "Yeah. Could it be that you are afraid that we will seduce your boyfriend?" "Don't blame her. If my boyfriend is so handsome, I will hide him from you as well so that he won't be targeted by you, who are so horny!" Most of the employees in the cafe were college students, who were young. I got along well with them. So after Seth said so, everyone just joked with me. "No. He..." "Charlotte, what would you like to have for dinner?" When I subconsciousl

    He threatened me like this again! He threatened me with the orphanage previously. And now it was Glorious Seth Design. "Mr. Cowell, you're high and mighty. I won't be surprised at all even if you've killed Seth, let alone destroy Glorious Seth Design." After that, I picked up the pink leopard doll, which I was about to put down, and carried it in my arms as I walked into the guest bedroom. Patrick caught up with me and grabbed the pink leopard doll by one of its arms. I hugged the pink leopard doll tightly. And we were in a deadlock. As soon as he exerted his strength, the arm of the pink leopard doll was broken at once! I lost my balance, fell back heavily to the ground. Patrick stepped forward and supported me, who was lying on the ground, "Are you okay?" His tone was full of concern. And his black eyes were full of worry for me. I looked at him, feeling abset-minded for a moment. He seemed to sincerely care about me.

    Patrick repeated his words. I, who couldn't be more overjoyed, looked at him as I asked over and over again, "Really? Is what you said true?" I was so afraid that after Patrick gave me hope, he would disappoint me again. But this time, Patrick nodded firmly. At that moment, I didn't struggle and let him hold my hand in his big palm. And I felt that my slightly cold hand became warm little by little. The next day, I went to work. Patrick proposed to send me to work. This time, I agreed. I sat in his car. He left after dropping me off at the cafe. But some sharp-eyed colleagues saw his car and came over. Then they asked, "Charlotte, is your boyfriend so rich? How come he is driving such a good car?" I looked at Patrick's car and didn't know how to explain it for a moment. "Am I going to tell them that Patrick is my husband? They certainly won't be convinced by the fact that I, who has a rich husband, is working in a cafe." Moreo

    "What are you doing?" I was very surprised and wanted to pull out my feet. But Patrick held my feet with his hand tightly and warned me, "Don't move. Otherwise, I will regret it later on." "Don't do this. My feet are cold." I was in a dilemna. I knew how cold my feet were. And I was very embarrassed as my feet, which were put side Patrick's warm clothes, directly touched his abdominal muscles. Patrick squinted at me with a some warning on his face, "Why didn't you tell me that your hands and feet are so cold in winter earlier?" ...... I didn't say anything else. But the next day, when Patrick picked me up after I got off work, he didn't take me back to my house. Instead, he parked his car downstairs in another building. The building was located in the central position of Unit No. 1, City Y. "This is..." I was a little confused. Patrick took my hand and put it into his pocket. Then he said mysteriously, "You'll be e

    Hearing Mrs. White's words, I took a deep breath. Someone wanted to kill me. Thinking of what happened a few days ago, I thought that it was self-evident as to who wanted to kill me. This reminded me of what had happened when I was in jail. "Could it be that Caroline was behind everything?" "How could she be so capable that she did all of these things by herself?" At this time, I calmed down and said to Mrs. White, "Help me contact the person who hired you. Tell her that I saved those photos on a cloud drive and did a set up that if I didn't even log in to the drive account in person within 24 hours, those photos would be sent to various domestic forums automatically. Moreover, they would be automatically sent out every one hour." Mrs. White scolded, "I don't fu*king care about the photos you're taking about!" ...... As soon as she finished her words, she kicked my thigh severely! I, who had been tortured by her for a long tim

    In an instant, I emotionally broke down. "No..." I shook my head and stepped back. But Mrs. White pulled my hair and dragged me into the cage! Then, she closed the door. I shouted, "Let me out!"  Mrs. White looked at me and said, "Let you out? Have it in your dreams!" Then she took one of her subordinates in her arms and said, "Let's go out and discuss how to let her speak." "Copy that." "No problem." Her subordinates responded flatteringly. Curling up in the cage, I couldn't help but begin to tremble again, feeling more frightened than I had been when my head had been covered. I was so afraid that everything happening in prison back then would happen all over again. At this time, I closed my eyes as if I could envision the days when I was in prison. I was so afraid. I couldn't help it. I even wondered whether I was sick. Soon, they came in. They tortured me in the same way as they had

    After Tyler left, I went to Patrick's ward. He lived in a super VIP ward of this hospital. And his ward alone took up more than 100 square meters. As I was about to enter the ward, I saw that Patrick was lying on the bed and that Wilson was reporting to him on the side. So I waited outside in silence. After a while, Wilson came out. When he saw me, he looked at me with a little strange look in his eyes. After entering the ward, I walked over to Patrick's bedside. A corner of Patrick's hospital gown peeked out of the quilt, revealing a white gauze. And drip-feeding was hanging on the side. "I'm sorry." I sat down. "I am good as long as you're fine." Patrick reached out and held my hand. Although Patrick's internal organs didn't get hurt, he had bled a lot. According to the doctor in the hospital, Patrick needed to stay in the hospital for at least a week. And then he could go home to rest. During this week, I asked for le

    After the wedding, our honeymoon plan was postponed because Rosalie was too young and Patrick's legs had not yet fully recovered. I had been resting at home all along. Sometimes I would talk to Nancy about my work. It was March with spring blossoms when Rosalie was 100 days old. Early in the morning, Patrick went out as usual, and I saw him off at the door. He held my face, kissed my forehead gently, and said softly, "Pack your daily necessities this morning. We'll go to our new home this afternoon." "New home? Where is it? Why didn't you mention it before?" I was stunned. I hadn't heard anything about the new home from Patrick so far. He looked mysterious and tidied up the messy hair on my face. "You will know when we arrive in the afternoon." After that, without waiting for me to ask more questions, he glanced at his watch and hurried out. "A new home?" I thought about it carefully. After getting married to Patrick, I

    Patrick and I held a wedding when Rosalie was 100 days old. Although he wanted to hold a grand banquet, I refused to do so. Mostly, I was too old to care about the formalities anymore. But I understood that it was Patrick's heart for me, and I did not refuse to hold the wedding. We just needed to call some good friends and have a Simple banquet. Patrick couldn't convince me, so he naturally agreed. In the blink of an eye, it was the wedding day. Shirley sent me the wedding dress. Because it was a mini wedding, only seven or eight tables were available. Most of the guests came from my studio and Towering High Company. Everyone was familiar with each other. In order to solve the marriage problem of the older single women in my studio, Nancy and I also made a special effort on the seating row. We specifically put single men and women of marriageable age at one table, expecting them to develop their relationship. Early

    Listening to Shirley's words, I truly felt lucky for Shelton. Fortunately, he returned. Fortunately, he returned to Shirley's side. Back to the person who loved him. Michael Blake was hired as defense counsel in Shelton's case. I went to find Patrick and asked him about the case. He told me Shelton had locked Emily up for a while, but he soon let her go. But after that, Emily asked Shelton for money. Shelton gave her some. After Emily spent all the money, she was desperate and went to the police. She wanted to use this method to force Shelton to give her money. When I heard Patrick's words, I thought that Emily was too naïve. If this were true, then someone might help her. But it was she who exposed the video in the first place, and everyone knew that. She had made the choice. Now everything she said just made it worse. Emily had no money, so she could only find the assigned lawyer to file the lawsuit. In the first

    She looked terrible, even her makeup was crying off. Only one night had passed, but she seemed to have aged a few years. She looked at us and asked, "How is father doing?" "The operation was successful." Patrick answered, but his expression looked bad. Dulcie heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Good." Then she turned around and was about to leave. Patrick said, "Aunt Dulcie, you don't have to blame yourself. It's just that Roger used you." "I blame myself for being stupid." Dulcie stood there, with her back to us and her head lowered. "I know it quite well in my heart. How could such a handsome, good and young man like him fall in love with me? But I still hold a trace of luck in my heart, thinking about what if it's true?" She didn't go on but left with her head down. I was a little worried. "Will your aunt be fine?" "Don't worry. She is a strong woman." After Patrick said that, he patted me on the shoulder. "You should go to

    Patrick's words were like a sharp sword that pierced into Roger's heart. Roger stood there. Although he looked calm, he lost all his momentum. At this moment, the ambulance arrived. Although Dulcie was angry and hard to accept it, she could tell what was more important. She opened the door and let the doctor in. The doctor examined Ned first, and then quickly carried him into the ambulance. Because of the small space in the ambulance, only two people were allowed to accompany Ned. Sheridan and Melissa got in. Once they left, it was just me, Patrick, Dulcie, and Roger left in the room. "I'll ask the driver to drive the car over." Patrick took out his phone and called the driver. Then I supported him to go out. Dulcie and Roger stood there without saying a word. Patrick did not talk to them either. He went out with me and got in the car. We decided to order the servants to take care of Glenn first. We cal

    Hearing his words, Sheridan looked gloomy on the side. Patrick held me in his arms, "You seem to care about the affairs of the Cowell Family so much. Each time we have some disputes, you will help us enthusiastically. Now you are making a move on my aunt, aren't you?" "No." After finishing his words, Roger imitated Patrick and held Dulcie in his arms, saying, "Dulcie and I love each other sincerely." ...... I looked gloomy. It wasn't that I didn't believe in December Romance. However, the age gap between them was so large. As Patrick's aunt, Dulcie was quite good-looking. It was just that she, who was old, had encountered too many unpleasant things in the past few years, making her meaner and harsher. As for Roger by her side... From all aspects, every woman lusted for him. He, who wasn't poor, surely could get whatever woman he wanted with ease. Indeed, in every way, there was no way that he would take a fancy to Dulcie. No w

    "All right." I nodded. I would marry Patrick soon. Because of the things taking place in the past, the Cowell Family didn't have a good impression of me. If I arrived there late because of getting changed this time, it wouldn't be worth it. Holding Patrick's hand, I went downstairs with him. Coming out early, we didn't see many cars on the road. When we arrived at the Cowell Family's mansion, it was exactly 6:30 p.m. By the time we went in, it had been quite lively inside the house. Sheridan, Melissa, and Ned were all surrounding Glenn. Glenn, a six-year-old child, was smart and flexible. Whatever others asked him, he would respond like an adult. Upon seeing us, the three of us looked at me. Ned straightened up first and said with a smile on his face, "You're here." "Yes. Hello, Grandpa Cowell." After greeting Ned, I said to Sheridan and Melissa, "Hello, Mr. Sheridan. Hello, Mrs. Melissa." Now, the relationsh

    "I'll be gentler." Leaning and frowning, he seemed to be in great pain, "I'm in pain." ...... "I am telling you the truth..." Cupping my face with his hands, he looked as if he were waiting for me to show my mercy. Frowning, i didn't know what to do for a while. What's more, unlike Patrick's office where there was a lounge, my office was a small one with a sofa only. Moreover, the setup was later divided. It wasn't quite soundproof. Once, Nancy made a phone call to argue with a construction company in her office. I heard all that she had said clearly in my office... Thinking of this, I shook my head heavily. Seeing his distressed look, I tentatively asked, "Shall we go upstairs?" Upon finishing my words, I felt that my suggestion wasn't quite plausible. At this time, Patrick was on the verge of ejecting. His private part was bulging. On the way out, we would pass by the open office... Everyone would be watching us.

    "Why did you... come here?" Standing up in a hurry, I helped Patrick into the office. While walking in, he closed the door handily. Looking up at the closed door, I knew that he should be here for what had happened just now. Even if he wouldn't take the initiative to come here, I would ask him about it. I helped Patrick seated on the sofa. Sitting up, he looked at me and said, "What do you want to know? Go ahead." Sure enough, he knew me. Sitting opposite him and looking at him, I thought for a moment before asking, "What happened? What did Kelsi do?" "Ever since she left last time, per my order, Louis had been keeping an eye on everything about her, including the ones she contacted. As expected, she dealt with the ones who smuggled guns and bribed a murderer, asking him to kill someone." Patrick didn't state who Kelsi had wanted to kill explicitly. Even so, I knew that it was me. I looked at Patrick, asking, "What did you do?
