Hayden's heart ached as he rushed over in anger. Lucas was running behind him and he called out, "Sir! Please slow down! You might fall!" Hayden was already bristling with anger, so how could he slow down? He ignored Lucas and ran all the way to the living room. The fragments of the vase were scattered on the living room floor. William had not only smashed his vase, but he had smashed almost everything that was on display too, not showing mercy to any one of them. As he took all of this in, Hayden was so angry that he was shaking. "You d*mned thing! Stop immediately!" William ignored him and turned in the direction of the study room and kicked the door open. He knew that the displays in the study room were even more valuable than the ones he'd just destroyed. Seeing that William was continuing his crazy act, he lost his cool and shouted, "Stop him! Are all of you dead?" The bodyguards hadn't dared stop William when he was smashing the displays. It was only
After William had stopped causing any havoc, Hayden looked at the room that was being cleaned up by the servants. Everything was restored, and someone was even putting up a new chandelier. The furniture in the living room was all changed too. Hayden looked at the spot that once held his antique vase and sighed. Then, suddenly, footsteps came from upstairs. Andrew took William's documents downstairs and handed them to Hayden. "This is for you, grandpa." "Has he calmed down?" "Yes, he became tired and fell asleep." Andrew said. "That reckless child! He'd really pissed me off!" Hayden couldn't help but curse at him again. Andrew chuckled and sat on the new sofa. "Grandpa, it must hurt a lot, right?" "Of course! They have costed me a fortune. It's not a matter of money, though. I really like them." "I don't have anything that I really like, so I don't really understand." Andrew shook his head and said. "But Uncle William would know exactly how you'
There was no one outside, except for Elizabeth's cat. Charles glared at the cat in disgust and shouted at it, "Stupid cat! Go away!" Then, the cat meowed and left. Charles then shut the door and returned to the room as Savannah looked at him mockingly. "You've become really sensitive now, bro." Charles said with a darkened expression, "We have to be vigilant at all times. It's better to be safe than sorry." In the room next to them, Elizabeth held her breath and walked out barefooted, with her shoes in hand. That was close! Fortunately, the room next door was open and she managed to slip inside silently as she was barefooted. If Charles knew that she had been eavesdropping, she would be dead by now. With such mind-blowing news, Elizabeth was undeniably excited. She walked out of the mansion silently and put on her shoes outside before she left in a hurry. Once she was out of the mansion, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she took out her phone and
Hayden waited in the living room for more than 10 minutes, until he heard footsteps coming down the stairs. William was being pulled downstairs by Raymond with Andrew following closely behind them. Seeing them, Hayden smiled at William and said, "William, are you sober now?" William ignored him and walked away with a hard look on his face. Andrew took his phone back from Hayden and said, "Grandpa, we're leaving now. We're going to have a drink with Uncle William." "Don't drink too much!" "Alright, we'll take good care of him." Then, the three of them quickly got into their car while Hayden followed them to the door and watched as they left. He sighed deeply and said to himself, "He's ignoring me now just because of a woman? What an ungrateful child!" Lucas smiled and said, "He'll get over it. After he cools down, he will be fine again." "I hope so!" Hayden turned around. "Have you found out where he gets his money?" "No, I went to the ban
At the sight of Michael, Abbie's face darkened instantly. However, Michael ignored her expression and said, "Abbie, didn't I say I'd give you a ride? Why did you come without me?" Abbie sneered and said, "You sure are humorous, Michael. I have my own car, so why should I take yours?" "Oh, what's the trouble, we live at the same area anyway." Michael said good-naturedly. At this moment, Andrew interrupted, "I don't think Abbie lives that close to you, does she?" "I've moved to a condominium next to hers. The environment there is quite pleasant." Michael answered. This made Valeria frown. Wasn't he going a little too far? He was someone's fiance, and here he was trying to claim Abbie as his. How shameless of him! As Valeria thought about this, she let out a cold laugh and said, "Michael, I heard that you and Azalea are going to have your wedding soon from the news! When will it be?" Hearing Valeria said this, Michael denied it immediately.
The voice caused goose bumps on Michael all of a sudden. What was Azalea Clark doing here? He turned around stiffly to see that she was wearing a red gown, and she was smiling lightly as she walked over. "What a coincidence, Michael!" Michael let out a humorless laugh. "It is indeed a coincidence. What are you doing here?" "It's the producer's birthday today and we're here to celebrate with him." Azalea looked at him warmly. Seeing the bandage on Michael's arm, her chest tightened instantly. "Michael! What happened to your hand?" "Nah, small matter," Michael answered nonchalantly. Seeing how Michael was unwilling to talk to her, Azalea was very unhappy. As an actress, she was an expert in controlling her emotions. Even though she was upset with how he reacted, she did not show it and still forced a smile at him. "Michael, since you're here, why don't you come over and meet everyone?" Michael refused immediately without even considering it. "I'm
The room became lively again as soon as Richard joined in. The guys started drinking and exchanging toasts, but Abbie was obviously in low spirits. Valeria knew what she was thinking when she saw Abbie's sudden change in mood. What William had said was true after all. She really had feelings for Michael. She didn't even have a clue about the relationship between them. She was not a good friend at all. Abbie must be upset because Michael was sending Azalea to the hospital. This must be the same as how she felt when she saw William with Paisley back then. It must hurt a lot. However, she could not comfort Abbie while Richard was still there. So, she took out her phone and sent her a message, "Abbie, don't be sad. I know everything. Just ignore that j*rk. He's not worth it." When Abbie saw the message, she was stunned. But, she turned to her and smiled bitterly, "I'm fine! Don't worry about me!" When William saw the both of them exchanging texts, he se
Meanwhile, in Lentzville Memorial Cemetery, Archer was dressed in black and was holding a bouquet of white roses. Without any bodyguards, he walked through the cemetery and stopped when he came to Natalie's grave. Natalie's expression on the grave was peaceful and serene, and her gaze was gentle on him. Archer stared at Natalie's gentle smile and squatted down slowly. He put the roses in front of her tombstone and reached out to touch her face in the picture. "Natalie, I'm here to see you." There was a lump in his throat, and his shoulders were trembling slightly as he was trying his best to suppress his emotions. However, the heartache and remorse in him poured out uncontrollably, and his eyes became watery with tears. "Natalie, I'm so sorry! It's all my fault. If I had known it would turn out like this, I would never have let you go easily. I should have fought with you through it all. It's my cowardice that killed you!" He thought that giving her
