Chief Judge Houston shook his head and said slowly, “You’re overthinking. I’m just stating the facts. Do you finally realize the seriousness of this matter through my explanation?” “I…”Hash Lucas was speechless and communicated softly with Jared Xavier and his lawyer for a while before coming to a decision. After glaring fiercely at Alex Cohen, he said to Chief Judge Houston, “There are still a few days before the deadline agreed on the IOU, right? Let me think about it first…” “You can th
It was a rare occasion that he did not have any plans for the evening, so he went to the supermarket and bought a bunch of ingredients to cook with Isla in the evening. When he returned to the villa, he inadvertently noticed that Liana Ballantine was recording a video with her cell phone by a flower bed. Liana saw Alex’s car and immediately stopped recording. She ran cheerfully to the Lamborghini that had pulled over and said to Alex, “Alex, you’re back from work?” “Mm-hmm.” Alex nodded an
“No, that’s not it. I’m really busy today…” “Busy my *ss! Liana Ballantine, you don’t really think you’re some sort of big star, do you? Even big celebrities have to be polite when they meet fans, nevermind a small-time internet celebrity like you. If it weren’t for us fans, you’d be worth nothing. Why are you acting so high and mighty?” “Get lost!” Alex could no longer bear to listen and roared angrily at the fan, and immediately took Liana away. Alex returned to the villa, put the ingr
Under the influence of alcohol and primitive impulses, Alex could not help but hug Isla from behind. Isla blushed instantly and her first reaction was to push Alex away. However, when Alex exhaled hot air into her ear, her body felt like it was being controlled again, making her a little disoriented. She clasped Alex’s wrist, but did not apply any force. The words that should have come out of her mouth also stayed in her throat for some reason. A meal with wine, a lone man and woman, and eve
If Alex had not intervened, Golden Stone might have been crushed or annexed by Sincere Co. by now… Arthur Tannin also saw Alex. After confirming that Alex was the one who took Liana away in the afternoon, he immediately increased his strength in smashing the gate. He made up his mind that he definitely had to regain the reputation he lost today. First, it was to resolve the stifling in his heart, and it would also clear the obstacles in his path to pursue Liana Ballantine. Ever since Arthur
Arthur Tannin paused again and suddenly seemed to hesitate. He did not know how Alex had found out about his identity. Now, the reality was that Alex knew everything about him and still looked fearless, but he did not know anything about Alex. It was already too late to find out now. They were face-to-face and had already thrown out malicious words. It was impossible for Alex to pretend that he did not say anything and wait for him to investigate Alex’s identity clearly, right? He was now
Alex waved his hand. “It’s fine, it’s fine. It’s just a bunch of idiots. They wouldn’t be able to cause that much trouble even if they came in.” “Thank you, thank you for your understanding… Mr. Cohen, how shall we deal with them?” “Just do it according to the rules.” “Alright!” The security guard captain was relieved and waved his hand, and said, “Take them away!” “Wait!” Arthur was anxious and increasingly confused, but there was not much time to think. He said to the security guard
Isla blushed, too embarrassed to discuss this topic. It was clear that she could not wait to accept Alex’s confession, but she could not speak out what was in her heart. She had to admit that falling in love with a straight man was a rather torturous affair. Alex was in no hurry to confess his love to Isla and did not want to take that step casually. The Internet said that life needed a sense of ritual. When it came to love, a confession was only second in importance to marriage, and one s
