His words made Paisley's eyes flash. "That's a good idea. Dad doesn't understand the current situation and he's so greedy. It's possible for him to accept the project."

"This... you really want Dad to take over the business?" Hardy only mentioned it casually.

"Yes! Dad is so vicious. He doesn't care about you and he only has eyes for his mistress and their bastard sin. Anyway, Acma Corporation will not belong to us in the future. Why don't we negotiate this with Ornard? We can get some benefits from this as well."

Paisley had already made up her mind to let her father take over the business. Hardy also hated him, but he had to remind Paisley, "You have to think about it clearly. After you set Dad up, he will never let you go. You will become an enemy of the Anthony family, and you will no longer have a relationship with them. You can no longer rely on them in the future."

"Dad won't give me another chance if I fail this time. I'll lose everything either way, so

    William found out that Paisley had gone to visit Hardy the next morning in William. Marcus smiled and reported, "It seems that Ornard has placed pressure on Paisley, so she has no other choice but to ask Hardy for help. I don't know what kind of tactics Hardy has given her, but I heard that she was smiling when she left." William laughed, "She's not afraid to do anything now that she's desperate." Marcus changed the topic when saw that William didn't care about this matter at all. "Mr. Howard, I just arranged for someone to send flowers and fruit baskets in the name of Richard to Angel. She was so excited that she asked the bodyguard when Richard would have time to visit her?" William held his pen and sneered, "Hehe, why is she so impatient? Looks like I have to speed up my actions to fulfil Angel's wishes as soon as possible." "Dealing with Angel requires Richard's cooperation. Should we ask him to go to the hospital to see Angel?" Marcus proposed. "He wo

    Angel dialled the number of the best makeup artist she knew and made an appointment in the afternoon. Madelyn immediately interrupted when she came in and heard Angel's call, she, "Miss, are you going out?" "That's right!" "Where?" "You don't need to care about that. Do I have to report to you whenever I go out?" Angel asked angrily. Madelyn smiled apologetically. "It's not that, but I'm just worried about you. You're injured, so I'm worried that something might happen to you." "Are you cursing me so that I'll get into an accident right now?" Angel stared at Madelyn with fury in her eyes. "Miss, you've misunderstood! How could I dare to curse you? Madam is worried that you'll have scars, so she wants you to stay and recuperate in the hospital." "Are you making up excuses? What can you do about it if I want to go out today? I'm warning you, you'd better not tell anyone that I'm going out today. If my grandmother hears about it and spoils m

    "Who is he?" Braelynn immediately asked. As she realized that she had lost her composure, Lucian immediately shook her head and said, "It's no one." Braelynn looked at Lucian suspiciously. "Mom, if you think of something, don't hide it. You must tell me. William told me that this is very important. The person who is trying to harm you might do it again." "I know, Braelynn. I'm a little tired. Let me go back to my room and lie down." "Okay. I'll bring you in." After helping Lucian onto her bed, Braelynn closed the door and left. Lucian couldn't sleep as she already had a suspect in her heart after what Braelynn said. It should be the mystery man behind Gurmisran. It must be the mysterious man who arranged for someone to kill her! This incident must have something to do with Gurmisran as well. Lucian thought she had disguised herself well, but she still couldn't escape. Could it be that the other party knew Braelynn's identity, so he had tr

    Angel didn't want this romantic event to end so soon and wanted to talk more with Richard. Yet she had no choice as Richard wasn't acting according to her plan. As she thought they would have more days together after her success, she wasn't fixated on the night and shook her head. "I'm not thirsty. Drink up, Mr. Clark!" So Richard drank a big glass of wine under the gaze of Angel. After drinking, he filled his glass to the brim. "This wine is pretty tasty." As Angel saw that Richard had drunk two glasses of wine, which had substances added to it continuously, a trace of worry flashed across her eyes. "Mr. Clark, will you be drunk?" "I won't. I can hold my liquor very well. This amount of wine is not a big deal for me." "But I heard that the after effect of this wine is very strong..." Before Angel could finish her words, Richard suddenly reached out and pressed his forehead. "Why is my head so dizzy? Is this wine that strong? This can't do. I have to find

    When their eyes met, Angel was so frightened that her hands froze. Richard, who was staring at her, had a wicked smile. He then pushed Angel with such a strong force that Angel fell backward onto the floor with a bang. Angel's head hit the ground with a buzz, and she was terrified. How could Richard suddenly wake up? Was the drug ineffective on him? As she thought of this, a hand reached out to cover her eyes, and she couldn't see anymore. Then there was a sharp pain in her neck. With a click in her ear, Angel immediately went unconscious. Before losing consciousness, Angel smelled a nice-smelling cologne. The smell was the same as the one she smelled on Richard when they were having supper just now. After knocking out Angel, Bobby looked at Richard on the bed and smiled. "Mr. Clark, you've worked hard!" "Bullshit! What's wrong with you? Are you trying to disgust me on purpose? You should have taken action a long time ago. Why didn't you do it

    Gurmisran naturally knew that he had been tricked. He roared and asked the manager to bring him the surveillance video so that he could check the information of that damned woman. The manager replied that there was something wrong with the hotel surveillance. So he couldn't get it. Gurmisran's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Richard knew that Angel and he was working together to plot against Richard and then retaliated against him? If that was the case, Angel would definitely be in trouble. He immediately asked about Angel, "Do you know what's the situation with Ms. Floyd?" The manager of Bayou Lagoo immediately replied, "Everything is normal over there. In the early morning, Mr. Clark beat up his bodyguards at the entrance of the hotel in messy clothes. Then he drove away angrily. He looked furious." "Does that mean we've succeeded?" Gurmisran breathed a sigh of relief. It was good enough that Angel had succeeded. But where did that dam

"How dare such a lowly bitch as yourself question me?" "No... I'm not questioning you! I'm just concerned about you. Miss, did you use protection? It's alright if you have those needs, but you need to use protection. It would be terrible if you were to get pregnant! To prevent you from getting pregnant, let me go and buy you some pills." As soon as Madelyn finished speaking, Angel slapped her. "Bitch! How dare you f*cking make your own decisions?" Madelyn was stunned and covered her face with her hand. "Aren't I doing this for you good? You're not yet married. If you were pregnant and the guy didn't want to take responsibility for you, you would be in big trouble. How would you get married later on?" Angel was even angrier when she heard that, and she slapped Madelyn aga

Pierre then sent a snapshot of Ornard and Paisley's marriage license to Angel. Angel was furious when she saw Ornard and Paisley's marriage license and called Pierre immediately, "Where did you get this from? Are you sure it's not forged?" "This was shown to me by Paisley. She was trying to show off to me that she had become Mrs. Laban. Well, Ms. Floyd, from now on, you will have to address Paisley as your aunt!" "What f*cking aunt! Who does she think she is? Bitch!" Angel scolded. "Isn't Ornard your uncle?" Pierre asked with a smile. "He's not my blood uncle. Damn it, if he's my uncle, why would he do this to me? Bastard! These two bastards are plotting against me, and I can't stand it anymore. I must take my revenge!" "Well... Ms. Floyd, let me tell you something honestly. It will not be easy for y

    On the day of Azalea's recovery, she was escorted out of the hospital by two police officers to wait for her sentence. She was wearing shackles and handcuffs as she walked through the parking lot. She saw Michael with Abbie, who was holding Emma in her arms. Michael was holding Abbie's waist, ready to get into their car. Seeing that Michael had recovered, Azalea was extremely perplexed. She had learned from the police that Leonard's man had tried to kill her to silence her and knew that Leonard was using her, so she did not regret her vicious behavior. Azalea stared at the child in Abbie's arms and Michael as she started to have vicious thoughts. If the one who got injured that day was Abbie, and if Abbie died, everything would be different now, wouldn't it? Michael would be living a life worse than death. His child would not have a mother anymore, and no one could have what she couldn't. She would be satisfied. However, all of this was just her imaginatio

    After Leonard's matter was settled, Richard returned to the Clark family. Abbie wasn't asleep yet and was sitting alone in the living room in a daze. Richard walked to her and sat down. Then, he reached out and patted her on the shoulder. "Why aren't you asleep yet?" "I can't sleep. Richard, he... he will be fine, won't he?" "Don't think too much. He will be fine." "I don't want anything to happen to him... Richard, I actually hate him very much and have never thought of being with him again. I have suffered enough! Every time I made up my mind to cut all ties with him, something bad would happen like what happened now. Richard, what should I do?" Richard understood Abbie's dilemma. "Abbie, do you still love him?" "I don't know! I hate him! I hate him so much!" "You can't let him go, can you? You and he broke up three times, but he has always been in your heart." Richard sighed. "To be honest, I don't want you and him to start over again. After

    It was late at night in Azalea's ward as she lay on the bed and fell asleep with her eyes closed. Three of Azalea's ribs were broken while one of her hands was handcuffed to the hospital bed. The policeman guarding her felt that there was no way she could escape, so he relaxed his guard. The man who was arranged by Leonard's assistant had been waiting for the right moment in the hospital. Then, they immediately entered the ward and attacked Azalea when they saw that the policeman had left. Just as they covered Azalea's mouth and were about to suffocate her to death, a soft voice could be heard by the door of the ward. "Hey! Are you trying to silence her?" The man turned his head and saw that Bobby were taking photos with his mobile phone while Silas was bent over in laughter. Later, Leonard was woken up at 2 a.m. in the morning when Richard and his bodyguards came to visit him furiously. Leonard had already guessed the purpose of Richard's visit as soon as

    It had been two days since Leonard's assistant brought Azalea back to the city and she was specially sent here today to attack Michael. Although Azalea hated Michael, she did love him immensely in the past and she didn't want to kill him. The one she hated the most was still Abbie. She had been overshadowed by Abbie since she was a child and she had never won against her before. It was all thanks to Abbie now that she ended up like this. Michael wouldn't deal with her if it weren't for Abbie, and she wouldn't have been driven to a dead end like this. She was going to die in the end anyway, so she wanted nothing more than to drag Abbie down with her. She knew that she couldn't get close to Abbie. Besides, she also knew very well that Leonard wanted to use her to kill Michael so that he could marry Abbie. Azalea acted as if she had been persuaded by Leonard's assistant to attack Michael, but in fact, her target was Abbie all along. She saw how desperat

    Azalea looked up when she heard the voice and met Leonard's assistant's gaze in the car. She stopped crying once he got out of the car. "Miss Clark, I've been looking for you everywhere!" Azalea lowered her head frantically when she saw him, but he said warmly, "Miss Clark, get in the car." She didn't know if Leonard's assistant knew about the murder she'd committed, so she hesitated for a moment before getting into the car. He then gave her a bottle of water and some food. Azalea was famished because she hadn't eaten anything for a few days, so she wolfed down her food desperately. Leonard's assistant had been observing Azalea all this time, and he said once she finished eating, "I know what you've done! The police are now looking for you everywhere." Azalea's expression was filled with panic. "Are you going to hand me over to the police?" "No, I'm here to help you." "How can you do that?" Azalea asked in frustration. "I won't be a

    It started to rain again early in the morning, which made the air in the mountains damp and cold. Meanwhile, Azalea lay motionlessly on the messy bed. She could hear the child's wailing from outside while Monthel's mother tried to coax the child. However, there was no sign of it ending even after some time. Monthel's mother started to become angry as well, so she scolded the child and eventually began to target Azalea again. "Why are you still lying in bed at this time? I've never seen someone as lazy as you. A wife should get up early in the morning to cook, but you are the only one who will laze around like this!" This was not the first time that Azalea had been scolded. Monthel's mother had begun to pick on her the second day after she arrived. Azalea would fight back initially, but she no longer dared to talk back after she was slapped in the face by Monthel. Monthel's mother cursed outside for a while. Then, she lifted the curtain and came into the ro

    Leonard's expression turned very ugly, but Richard did not give him a chance to even catch his breath. "After I learnt of your relationship with her, I sent someone to extract the DNA of the fetus in Evelyn's belly and compare it with yours. The results show that she's indeed pregnant with your child, but you can verify it personally if you don't believe me." Since Richard dared to say this, there was no possibility for Leonard to turn the tables. The veins on Leonard's forehead bulged as he was filled with humiliation. He initially wanted to get back at Fandrey by asking him to propose the marriage to the Clark family, but she ended up being embarrased like this. He was furious, but Richard continued, "We are very grateful to you for saving Abbie's life. Although she can't marry you, we can continue to be friends if you want to." What could Leonard say? He had done a terrible mistake, so he couldn't possibly tell Richard that he wanted to cut all ties between t

    Abbie tried her best to escape, but it was useless. Michael even kissed her on the face a few times, which made her so angry that her voice trembled. "Michael... F*ck you... I'm going to kill you!" Michael turned a deaf ear to her words because he hadn't been so close to Abbie for such a long time. He missed her like crazy, so how could he bring himself to let her go? Abbie kept struggling desperately, but her physical strength was no match for Michael's. Michael then carried her back to the sofa, which made her furious because she couldn't escape. "Michael, what are you trying to do?" Michael did not answer her at all. Instead, he just hugged her so tightly as if he didn't want to let her go at all. He hugged her for such a long time that her whole body had gone numb. "Michael, what's wrong with you? Let go of me! I can't move!" It was only then did Michael let go of Abbie. Her limbs had already gone numb and she felt extremely uncomfortable. Just t

    Michael happily placed the coffee he ordered for Abbie in front of her. "Here, I've ordered your favourite coffee." However, Abbie sneered and picked up the coffee to splash it all over him. The coffee was very hot, but Michael just smiled bitterly and said, "Do you hate me so much?" "What do you think?" Abbie looked at Michael coldly without any affection in her eyes. "My feelings for you have never changed! What happened between me and Azalea is all fake, and I've never had anything to do with her. The news with Anastasia was also fake. I was the one who used her to provoke Azalea, but Leonard made up those news articles to get back at me. I swear, I haven't been with anyone else apart from you!" Abbie let out a cold laugh, "Really?" "I'm serious! I swear that I'm not lying to you!" "There's no need to swear, or else even you'll beleive your own lies." Michael became desperate when it was obvious that Abbie didn't believe him. "What do I have
