In the Wolf Group Hotel, William took Valeria to the hotel room with his hand in hers. There were no outsiders around, so he reached out to hold her in his arms. "I heard that you've hit the jackpot today. Let me reward you with a kiss!" Valeria did not refuse, but she raised her head to kiss him instead. Just as the two of them were getting intimate with each other, the door was pushed open. Abbie saw the two of them hugging and kissing each other the moment she opened the door. She screamed and closed the door, "I didn't see anything. Please continue!" Valeria blushed, but William did not seem to care. He continued to hold her in his arms, "We've been together for so long, so wouldn't it be normal for us to kiss?" "You're so shameless!" She pushed him away and got up to open the door. Abbie stood outside while covering her eyes. Valeria pried her hands away and said, "Stop it!" Abbie stuck her tongue out at Valeria. "I've heard about what hap
When Abbie followed Michael and saw him walking through the corridor, she jogged to catch up to him. He slowed down and reached out to push open the door of a private room, and he went in in a flash. Abbie quickly took a few steps to the door of the private room. Why did he suddenly come to this room? Were there sl*tty b*tches inside? She wasn't so sure, so she put her ear on the door to listen to the movements inside. It was terrible. She could hear a woman softly gasping inside. Did he have s*x with the woman the moment he went in? Abbie was furious, and she impulsively kicked open the door. It was pitch black inside, and she couldn't see anything. Just as she was bewildered, a big hand reached out to grab her. She released a sharp cry, but her mouth was immediately covered. She was lifted in a dizzy manner as she was tossed onto the couch, and then somebody got on top of her. After singing the English song, William sat next to Va
In the nightclub, Valeria was on cloud nine. After drinking too much, she staggered while walking to the bathroom. When she was going back to the private room, one of the other doors opened. Michael cupped his face as he came out with a smile. Because he was cupping his face, Valeria paid extra attention to his cheeks. His cheeks were red, and she wondered, "What's going on? Did someone hit him?" "How could he still smile after getting hit? He's too drunk!" Valeria was puzzled. Then, she saw Abbie coming out of the room with messy hair and crumpled clothes. Valeria was dizzy after drinking so much. "Abbie, what are you doing here?" A trace of awkwardness flashed across her face at the question. "I... I came out for a walk." "For a walk? I just saw Michael coming out from here too! Was he also taking a walk?" Abbie's face was as red as a tomato. She knew that Valeria was drunk after she nonchalantly asked her questions like that. "You saw
William was stunned when he saw Richard's message. Did Braelynn look like Valeria? He didn't pay much attention to women other than Valeria, so he didn't realize Braelyn's resemblance to Valeria. After reading Richard's text, he found that Braelynn's appearance seemed to be similar to Valeria's. Well, their eyes and mouth were very similar... William frowned and replied with a message, "I don't know. Why do you care about this?" "I just asked because I thought it was strange. Haven't you thought about finding out who Valeria's real father is? Is it Lamont? Could they be sisters?" "Is there something wrong with your head?" William was not happy. "Don't scold me! Think about it. Wasn't Natalie with Archer? Why did she break up with him so suddenly? Why did Lamont disappear then? Was there any reason for that? Was it because Natalie got together with Lamont and Archer found out?" "I was right, something is wrong with your head! Although Lamo
In the morning, Valeria was awakened by the ringtone of her phone. She grabbed the phone and answered it. Lamont's voice came from the other end, "Miss, I'm already here. When will you come out?" She turned over and sat up. "Give me two minutes. I'll be ready right away." She hung up the phone and got dressed in a flurry. William was not in the room, so she rushed into the bathroom to wash up. She brushed her teeth and washed her face in less than two minutes, and she ran downstairs without even putting on makeup. She bumped into William, who was going up the stairs. He had a glass of milk in his hand and saw her flustered manner. "Why are you in such a hurry?" "How nice of you to ask me that! Why didn't you wake me up? Uncle Saunders is already waiting for me at the door." "Do you have to go?" He handed her the milk. "You're the boss. Don't you know that bosses can go to work at their own times?" "That's true, but today is the first day
After saying that, Valeria hung up the phone, and the secretary stared at the resigning executives in confusion. "She asked me to approve of your resignation letters and let you guys leave. She will immediately replace the empty positions with her own workers." The executives looked at each other and asked, "Did she really say that?" "Yes! Why wouId I lie to you?" "Isn't that too mean of her? How dare she look down on us? Let's see how the company will operate without us!" "Yes, let's see how the company will operate without us. She might even come crying to us then!" The secretary awkwardly interrupted their conversation and said, "So should I start approving your resignation papers?" "You are not qualified to do so! We'll wait here for her," they said angrily. This was too annoying. They thought that Valeria would ask them to stay, but she approved their resignations without even showing up. These people had been in the company
Yesterday, Lamont had brought dozens of bodyguards to the company. They were dressed in neat security clothing and stood upright. Dozens of media reporters carried their cameras and stood in the open space in front of the Central South Building. "What's going on? Why are there so many reporters here?" Some people were still daydreaming and said, "Maybe they knew about the change in personnel and saw our resignation statements just now. So they're here to interview her to make a fool out of her!" "If they want to interview her, they should go up to interview her! They don't look like they're here for her at all... They look like they are waiting for someone else." Before they finished their sentences, a row of luxury cars showed up nearby, radiating an air of supremacy. The two eye-catching luxury cars in the middle attracted people's attention. Someone recognized the license plates. "Look, that's Richard's license plate!" "The car behind belong
In Ronald's luxury apartment, he had been anxiously waiting for the follow-up news from his subordinates. He was happy to see them issuing resignation notices to support him in suppressing Valeria. However, a few minutes later, Ashley suddenly rushed into his room and said, "Dad, the stock value of the company is rising." "What? How is that possible?" He didn't believe it. In the morning, in order to make the stock value drop, he had been suppressing it with all his efforts and sold all the stocks he had. He wanted to stop people from buying new stocks because of how helpless the numbers looked. "Look, it is rising in a straight line. This is not good, it's rising and stopping!" Hearing her exclamation, he grabbed the phone and saw the graph himself. He rubbed his eyes and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything. All the stocks in his hands had been sold, and they had been taken over by others. How could he buy them again in the f
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
