Xena knew threatening her own life was the ultimate move that would make Isla understand how serious she was.Isla fell for it and quickly asked, “Mom! I didn’t disagree with you yet. I thought about it last night. Even if you didn’t mention it, I’ll break it off with him. I have to take some responsibility. If I didn’t make an impulsive decision in the beginning, I wouldn’t have met Alex and it wouldn’t have led to where we are now. Sigh...the butterfly effect is too scary..." "Since you kn
Isla Sullivan pursued further and asked, "Mom, are you saying that Dad wanted me to break off my relationship with Alex?""That's right!" Xena Sanders nodded and answered with conviction, "When your father was on the verge of death, his biggest regret in his life was that he didn't get to draw the line between you and Alex in time. If he hadn't condoned your involvement with Alex from the beginning, the company he worked so hard to build and run wouldn’t have been taken away by an outsider.
"Aunty, no offense, but your words are really a bit too presumptuous." "You don't like to hear it? Then stay out of my family's business! Get the hell out of here with them!" "I..." Cynthia expected that Xena would get angry, but she did not expect the sharp words to shoot their way to her. She felt her nose tingle, and with tears streaming out of her eyes, she turned around and ran out.Alex chased after Cynthia to the elevator, handed her a tissue, and said, "Xena is a person with
"Huh? What did you say?"Alex Cohen was flustered. He could understand and even accept Isla's cold attitude towards him. After all, old couples gave each other the cold shoulder over trivial matters, let alone that the two of them were only lovers who had yet to establish their relationship and that Isla's family had just undergone a big change. However, Isla just expressed her need to move out like she wanted to completely cut off her relationship with him. Separation was much more than
"I understand what you mean, but...I’m afraid this matter can't be undone." "Oh? How so?"Cynthia shook her head, then went over to the coffee table and sat down. She poured herself a glass of water, drank it to moisten her dry throat, before she said to Alex, "On the way over, I've been discussing this issue with her. Although I didn't get through to her, I understood how she felt. She made up her mind to move out because she believes that it’s the only way to completely draw the line wi
"What's the situation?"Alex Cohen was startled and bounced up from the sofa. All the nerves in his body were tense.It was already an eventful time for Alex, so he was most afraid of hearing more bad news.Zeke Martin on the other end of the call was also very anxious and spoke with urgency. "Last night, Symore attended one of his acquaintances’ birthday party and still hasn’t returned. I just called the guy, but they said Symore left before midnight. Now his phone can’t be reached, and we
After he said that, Alex hung up the call. Isla's situation was still pressed in his heart and Symore was in trouble again.Alex was already in a mess and did not have the energy nor the time to talk to Charles Lucas. He tucked the phone away, then looked at Zeke and Seth as he asked, "What exactly is the situation?" Zeke looked at Seth and said, "You know better than I do, so you can brief them."Seth nodded and took over the conversation."Alright then. Mr. Cohen, it's like this. La
When the boss heard this, his eyes widened in shock and said incredulously, "Mr. Cohen, you know this woman? She...is she your enemy?"Seth also panicked, thinking that if the one who seduced Symore was Alex's enemy, then Symore would be in danger.Alex frowned, nodded, and said to Big Ken, "Bro, you still remember her, right?"Big Ken responded, "I remember. She’s that old classmate of yours called Sukie Lane, right?""That's right, it's her. I haven't seen her for a few months and thought
Among these subsidiary companies, Qingyun Media had the best development technology. Qingyun Media was originally a big company. After the reorganization, the newly launched variety show had begun to record. The first episode was specially selected to record the new resort built by Harrods Corporation, which was used as an advertisement for the resort for free. Qingyun Media also caught the relationship with Alex, and a TV series was introduced. It was a horror story based on Jing Kun. All these
"I see. Let me think about it.""No problem! Young Master, have a good rest. I'm outside. You can call me at any time if you need anything."Big Ken knew that Alex needed a certain amount of time to accept all this, so she did not force Alex to agree on the spot...In a flash, half a month had passed. Alex's injury had almost recovered, and the discharge formalities were quickly completed.It took Alex a whole day to catch up with his brothers. At night, he went home to the villa and called
"Wait, wait, Young Master. I'll call Old Master and ask him!"Big Ken immediately took out his mobile phone and called Wayne. They chatted for more than ten minutes. After hanging up the phone, he went back to the bedside, pulled a chair and sat down. He said excitedly to Alex, "I have communicated with Master. We can basically confirm that your analysis is correct!"Alex was also overjoyed and asked, "Brother Big Ken, can you tell me what's going on?""That's enough, that's enough. Old Maste
The helicopter went straight to the roof of the military yard. Director Deng, who had received the news in advance, had been waiting for a long time.Director Deng personally went to the field and gave Alex a full-body examination. When the result came out, it was dark. Generally speaking, as the attending doctor, he should inform Isla and Big Ken in time so that they could have a rest. But in fact, he did not mention anything about Alex's injury. He asked abnormally, "May I ask who is Isla?"
Isla had been frightened and asked urgently, "Brother Big Ken, how is Alex?"The others also began to ask.Big Ken shook his head and replied, "Young Master... His injury is very serious. The things in the first aid kit in the car can't handle it at all. He must be sent to the hospital immediately, otherwise... otherwise, his life may be in danger.""What? His life is in danger?""Boss Sullivan, calm down. My initial judgment is not necessarily accurate. Let's wait until the hospital has an
At this moment, Alex was obviously at the end of the road, because it was impossible to block the opponent. But Yu Zhijie and Jing Kun were a little stunned by his sudden burst of momentum, which gave him a chance to breathe. While wearing rough clothes, they said, "Isla, don't be afraid. As long as I'm alive, no one will hurt you! I won't make the same mistake again!"Isla was so moved that she trembled with fear. It was not because she was frightened by the opponent, but because she saw blood
Among the five groups, only Big Ken had the strength to divert their attention to deal with Yu Zhijie.As evolutions, Hunter and Xiong Da's combat strength was about the same as their respective opponents', and they could only fight to a draw. Under such circumstances, they didn't dare to be distracted. This was how an expert fought. The winner and loser would often fall into a disadvantage in the blink of an eye. In the remaining two groups, Alex and Ma Zhiyuan's strength was obviously weaker
"No, we came together...""Young Master, listen to me. Now is not the time to make use of things!"There was a difference between Alex and Big Ken.Jing Kun did not intend to give them any time to discuss. He picked up a baseball bat from the trunk of the off-road vehicle, stared at Alex with his hollow eyes, and said, "You are still looking for the way at this time? I have to say that you are too naive. Well, since you already know my identity, there is nothing to say. You can go to hell wit
Isla had experienced similar dangers before, but she was still so nervous that she couldn't speak. She just nodded mechanically.At the same time, Ma Zhiyuan ran to the front and gave Felix and Quinn the same reminder. After that, he gathered with Big Ken, Hunter, and Xiong Da to protect Alex. They didn't know who surrounded them or what they wanted to do, but no one was careless and prepared for the worst.At this time, the door of the car in front of them finally opened and two burly middle-
