Taya had some understanding of Griffon’s methods, but she didn’t want to dwell on it and simply continued, “Maybe he left Washington.” Neil didn’t care about this and just replied to her with “bye” before hanging up the phone. As soon as Taya exited the contact list interface, Harper called her on video. Taya answered the call and saw Harper was holding a cigarette in one hand and her phone in the other, leaning against a bar in the video. “Taya, you’ve been in Washington for over half a month. Do you miss me?” Harper asked with a grin. “Of course,” Taya replied with a smile, noticing the cigarette in her friend’s hand and advising her, “Harper, you should smoke less.” Harper had a heavy smoking habit. She had only quit for a few days before starting again. It was better for women to smoke and drink less, but Harper didn’t care about that. “I only smoke good quality cigarettes, which won’t harm my body. Don’t worry,” Harper explained with a raised eyebrow.Taya sighed deeply and asked
Stella held back her victorious joy and grinned expectantly at him. “Okay. I’ll wait for you.” When Eric saw the disappointment in her eyes gradually turning into anticipation, his flustered heart calmed down. He let go of Stella and picked her up into his arms. His embrace was tighter than ever. For some reason, he always felt that the woman in his arms would abandon him one day and be with someone else. Eric couldn’t imagine what he would do when the time came. All he could do was hold on to Stella helplessly… Henry, who was beaten into a daze and unable to speak, lay on the ground. Watching the two leaving, he clenched his fists tightly. After Eric carried Stella to the dean’s room, he pressed her against the wall. He didn’t even kiss her and went straight to S**. Stella, who was forced to deal with it, was splayed over his shoulders.The coldness in her eyes became more and more heartless. While the two of them were doing it, the phone on the desk kept ringing. Stella wanted to pi
Griffon clenched his pale fingers as he lowered his arrogant face and begged Harper. “Ms. Duke, I have something very important to tell her. Could you please tell me where she is?” Harper watched as Griffon, who was far superior to her, spoke to her in just a humble pleading tone. She was in disbelief. After hesitating for a few seconds, she replied, “I really don’t know, but I can be certain that this project of theirs is within the US. They should be back in a few days. How about you go back first, and I’ll let you know once she’s back?” Griffon didn’t want to waste a second. “Ms. Duke, can you contact her for me?” On his way to the villa, he had used many different phone numbers to try to get through to Taya, but she never picked up. Taya had blocked his work phone number and she wouldn’t answer calls from unknown numbers, so he had to ask Harper for a favor. Seeing how dedicated Griffon was, Harper was at a loss. Despite that, she took out her cell phone to call Taya. She made con
Seeing that it was from Greyson, Taya was taken aback. Greyson hadn’t replied to her messages for several months. She thought he didn’t plan to talk to her anymore. Unexpectedly, he finally responded after such a long time. She squeezed the phone tightly, feeling a little nervous, and questioned Neil, “Do you still remember Greyson? He finally replied and he’s asking me for a meet-up.” Neil took her phone, and glanced at it. Tapping the screen, he muttered to himself, “Yeah you guys should meet up. I’ll kill him on your behalf.” Taya remembered that Greyson had indeed been forced to flee by Neil in the hospital parking lot last time. Thus, she was convinced that he was bad news. She held the phone in her hand and lowered her head to type.After doing so, she looked at Neil with a dazed expression.“What time should I meet him? And where? How are we going to catch him after we meet up?” she blurted. If she were to let Greyson decide on the time and place, she might end up being the one
Seeing her bright smile, Griffon felt the dull pain that had been looming in his heart since the night before had suddenly dissipated a lot. He took her hand and led her to the changing room. After personally helping her change into horse riding clothes, he turned around and ordered someone to fetch his own exclusive clothes. Taya, who was waiting outside the door, leaned on the railing and kicked the stones on the ground out of boredom when the door behind her slowly opened. He emerged facing the sun with a face as cold as snow.He was wearing a pair of black sungla*ses, which made his facial features even more well-defined. He had perfect body proportions, with white, body-hugging clothes on his torso and a black belt tightly wrapped around his toned waist. His lower body was dressed in white breeches, and his thighs are outlined to make them taller. Below the knees, there were a pair of black high-riding boots. The man held a helmet in one hand, turning his head slightly against th
Watching as Jessica gracefully made her way back to the riding track, Taya clenched her hands into fists and tightened them. She locked her gaze on Jessica, who got on the horse and quickly caught up with Griffon as if she had said something to him. Griffon slowed down, and then he followed the direction in which Jessica pointed and saw Taya sitting in the rest area. He and Jessica were riding their horses side-by-side. They seemed like a perfect match, while Taya, who couldn’t ride a horse, could only watch from a distance. The fact that those born at the bottom of the social ladder were at a disadvantage since birth was despair-inducing. It was harder for them to learn things like that after growing up. Although Taya had gotten Jessica riled up, she still felt insecure deep down. Thus, she slowly looked away, got up, and walked to the changing room. Jessica told Griffon, “Griffon, Taya is relying on you to back herself up. She’s deliberately acting arrogant in front of me. Aren’t yo
The emptiness she felt after Griffon let go of her hand left a void in her heart as well. She looked at Griffon, who was standing in the distance, listening to the woman’s words. Her expression gradually became gloomy. “Do you know who she is?” Jessica came to Taya’s side and looked into the distance with her. Taya didn’t answer, but Jessica continued muttering to herself. “She’s Emelyn Davies from one of the four major European packs. She’s the apple of Master Davies’ eye.” Jessica turned her head to the side and looked at Taya, whose expression had changed slightly. Even so, she pretended to be calm. “Her background is enough to scare even me away. You can’t even compare to me. Will you be able to steal Griffon away from her?” she provoked Taya.Taya clenched her hands and turned her head to the side, glancing at Jessica coldly. “Dr. Simmons, if you have to sn atch someone away just to get them to love you, I would rather not do it. I advise you to forget about doing that,” she reto
After Griffon carried Taya into the car, he said, “There’s still an hour to go until we get home, so you should rest for a while.” Taya nodded lightly. She wanted to lean against the car window, but under his expectant gaze, she took the initiative to sit on his lap. She used to think that Griffon didn’t love her, so she never dared to express herself. Right then, she was sure that he loved her. Since she still loved him, she wouldn’t worry about anything else. It was true that she was afraid of being hurt twice by the same man as Jessica said. However, before that happened, she would give it her all and love bravely. She rested her head lightly on Griffon’ shoulder, looked at his flawless side profile, and murmured, “Wake me up when we arrive.” Griffon tilted his head to look at her and gave a light peck on her red lips before picking up the blanket next to her to cover her.He raised his fingers to stroke her back. While coaxing her to sleep, he muttered, “Thank you, Taya.” Her kind
Neil received the item from the owner of the goldsmith shop. He originally wanted to give it to Taya and at the same time, show off. Who knew that Alpha Knight would be here! He had such bad luck! The smile on Neil’s face disappeared. “How dare you!” Neil was disappointed when he saw Griffon. How were they going to have fun now that he was here? The designers, who followed behind Neil, froze when they saw Griffon too. The smiles and excitement immediately faded. They did not even dare to enter the door. They stood at the door, pushing and shoving each other. “Hey Neil, after you…” When Neil saw Griffon, he was extremely humble. He waved his hands desperately, “No, no, the young ones should enter first…” Taya glanced at the designers who were afraid to come in, then at Griffon who exuded a terrifying aura. She saioicd in a low ve, “Why don’t you go out first? I’ll take care of things here first before going to the hospital.” Griffon let go of his balled fists, which were clenched due t
Are you alright?”After Harper finished talking with Preston, she immediately went to the office. She quickly washed up and changed her clothes. When she came out, she overheard Mr. Jenkin’s conversation. He said that Griffon caught Johnny flirting with Taya and that they were fighting downstairs. There were also guns involved. Harper was so frightened that she did not even have time to put on her high heels. She quickly wore her slippers and she rushed down in a hurry with her hair still wet. When Taya heard Harper’s voice, she hurriedly pushed away Griffon, who was about to kiss her, and turned to face Harper who was rushing towards her in a panic. “I’m fine. Be careful, don’t run.” Harper rushed to Taya and quickly examined her just to make sure she was alright. Seeing that she was indeed unharmed, Harper immediately relaxed. “I was scared to death. I thought something happened to you. My heart was literally about to leap out of my chest!” Taya raised her hand and comforted her. “Do
Griffon hugged Taya tightly as he stared deeply at Johnny with cold, deadly eyes. Griffon grabbed Johnny’s wrist hard, almost squeezing it. If he exerted any more strength, Johnny’s wrist would definitely dislocate. Johnny couldn’t struggle and he became irritated. He glared at Griffon and shouted. You are courting death!” After he finished speaking, he raised his other hand and motioned for his bodyguards to come forward. When Taya, who was nestled in Griffon’ arms, saw the group of bodyguards running towards them, her heart started pounding in his chest. “Griffon, you have to go now.” Listening to the conversation between the two, it was obvious that they knew each other and they had grudges. Griffon did not have any bodyguards with him at this time, so he might not be able to take down Johnny and his team of bodyguards sorry, Griffon suddenly lowered his head and gave her a rea*suring look. “Don’t worry.” As soon as he said those words, he lifted his leg and kicked fiercely at the
Harper’s heart trembled as she saw the bodyguards’ hands reaching for the back of their waist once again, but she forced herself to stay calm and began to make up nonsense. “She’s in Aronland with Mr. Yardley. If you want to look for her, go to Aronland…” That’s right, he should go ahead and deal with Amon. Harper wanted to see who would come out on top. Upon hearing this, Johnny’s repressed anger burst out of his dark eyes. “I found out that she had returned from Aronland, and the first person she met up with was you, right here!” The first time he came here, he was actually looking for Harper to ask about Rosalie’s whereabouts. However, he was so furious at the waiter that he couldn’t speak. After adjusting his mood, he revisited the place. However, he never expected that Harper would dare to play dumb. This was simply unbearable! He stood up out of the blue, and his tall and burly figure towered Harper, whose height reached his chest despite being in heels. Stare at Harper. “Ms. Du
Harper smiled coquettishly. “It has nothing to do with you.” Nothing to do with him? Preston had always been a gentleman towards women but at that instant, his face darkened as he spoke. “Harper Duke, are you sure you want to provoke me?” Harper felt that he was reversing right and wrong, and her face also darkened. “Please get it straight. You’re the one who came to provoke me with another woman.” “That’s because you rejected me without thinking the other day! The indignation in Harper’s eyes turned into confusion in no time. Preston had had many women before, but he had never been serious with any of them. He would never lower his status to try to reconcile after breaking up with them. But that night, he hugged her like a pup and nuzzled her neck. “I miss you a little. Please don’t leave me, okay?” She thought he was just talking nonsense due to the alcohol in him, but she never expected him to be serious. Harper was surprised for a moment, but then regained her composure… Regardles
Taya walked up to the second-floor bedroom without turning on the lights. By the dim light, she could see the Koenigsegg downstairs and the man inside. Through the half wound window, Taya noticed that he was typing on his phone. A few seconds later, Taya’s phone vibrated. She took out her phone from her pocket and opened WhatsApp. She saw a photo he sent, a picture of the two of them taken at the seaside. He typed her a message with only a few words: “Don’t delete the picture. Keep it as a memory.” A memory…Why would it be a memory? Taya wanted to reply to him, but she noticed that Griffon had his profile picture to a picture of her. Another message came in. “Taya, I love you. Goodnight.” After thinking for a few seconds, Taya replied, “Goodnight…” The next morning, Taya received a bouquet of roses from him, which was delivered by Andre. He didn’t come himself. Andre explained, “Ms. Palmer, Alpha Knight has several international meetings to attend today, so he asked me to deliver BIKI
Rebecca had shown up just to meet Taya. Having met her, she thus spun around and left. Looking at her graceful and composed back, Taya, who was so nervous that her heart leapt to her throat, gradually relaxed… She thought that the members of the Knight pack would despise her, look down on her, and even speak ill of her, just like Shelly. Unexpectedly, Griffon’ eldest sister was so gentle and elegant, without any arrogance whatsoever. Even if she did, it was only because of the way she had been raised in a rich pack, as well as the way she viewed the world, which was saturated by the knowledge she had obtained. Griffon lowered his head and asked, “When will you come back to the Knight pack’s house with me for the family dinner?” Taya raised her clear eyes to stare at his flawless face and thought to herself, “In the future.” At that moment, she had yet to reach a position where she could be a proper match for him and attend the Knight pack’s banquet.He didn’t get a response from her,
He brought Taya to the jewelry area. All he did was ask if there was anything she liked. Taya said no so he asked the shop a*sistant to send the latest collection of diamond jewelry to the villa without asking any further questions. The shop a*sistant glanced at Taya with envy, then replied respectfully, “Yes, Alpha Knight…” Taya, who was led out of the jewelry area by Griffon, stared at his back in a daze. He was sending her cars, flowers, and accessories. Was he going to send her clothes next? As Taya expected, Griffon took her to a clothing department selling haute couture garments. This time, he didn’t even ask for Taya’s opinion and directly asked the shop a*sistant to pack up a bunch of clothes. Seeing the shop a*sistants frantically helping her pack clothes, shoes, and bags, Taya rubbed her forehead in helplessness. She lowered her head and looked at Griffon, who was kneeling on one knee and helping her try on a pair of crystal high heels. “Who taught you all these tricks?” Con
Right then, the National Space Administration was funding her project with about 10 million dollars. It was enough to repay Neil for the favor he had done her. If not for his “eloquent” and “careful” teaching over the past couple of months, she wouldn’t have improved so fast. After finishing all of that, Taya turned on the computer. She clicked on various construction-related software, and self-study videos. She was a design student, so she had learned how to use all those software in school. She only had to review the process a few times, and she should be able to remember it. She was rushing to complete a project at that moment, and all she had was a sketch. After completing her sister’s projects, she had to continue taking on other projects as well. Since that was the case, she had to go through the entire process from sketches to post-production renderings. That way, she could grasp every link faster and more clearly. She continued studying until ten o’clock. In an attempt to take
