He was wearing a white suit, holding a wine gla*s, and had one leg crossed over the other, giving off an air of a lazy nobleman. He didn’t seem to care at all, but his eyes swept over the woman who was drinking bottles of wine. She was wearing a black low-necked long dress, which outlined her slender figure. Under the light, she looked S**y and pure. Her delicate face turned red because of the alcohol, which made her fair skin look even rosier. The aura exuding from her whole body was so pleasant that even the top hostess present could not match her. Many rich young men couldn’t help having some thoughts when they saw such a domineering Harper. Preston found all the men staring at the cleavage under her neckline. His face suddenly darkened, and he threw out the wine gla*s in his hand.

There was a sound of broken gla*s as the wine gla*s shattered, interrupting Harper’s movement of bending down to pick up the third bottle of wine. She raised her head and looked at Preston, who had throw

    Taya made a few calls, but no one answered, so she stopped. She raised her red eyes and looked at the closed door of the villa. No one came out to save her. The feeling of extreme lack of oxygen and suffocation made her suddenly angry. She raised the phone in her hand and threw it hard at the window. Over and over again, the screen broke, but she did not give up. She had never been so angry before. That kind of anger made her clench her teeth and try her best to smash it down. Amon, who was leaning against the railing, saw everything downstairs, but he didn’t intend to open the door and just watch indifferently. Taya’s phone was broken, but the window was still intact… She was so tired that she had no strength to smash it again. She could only put down her phone weakly.Then she sat in the car in a daze, feeling the air in the narrow space gradually disappear… After an unknown period of time, Amon walked over, rolled down the window of the pa*senger seat, and bent down to look at the

    When Taya heard the word “home,” she found it ridiculous. “That’s your home, not mine.” She never had a home, from wolf cub to adult period to adulthood. She thought that finding her sister would give her a family, but the man in front of her, who claimed to be her sister’s husband, locked her in the car and tried to suffocate her for not coming home on time. How could she possibly go home with him? Seeing that she refused to go back, Amon said casually, “That’s the house I bought for your sister. It’s her home, as well as yours.” The smile on Taya’s face grew colder. “My sister ended her life early in order to escape from you, which means that she doesn’t love you at all.Those houses and cars don’t belong to my sister. You forced her to accept them!” Amon’s face suddenly turned dark, with a hint of fierceness in his eyes. “She didn’t love me. How could she have spent ten years pursuing me with all her heart and mind? It was she who betrayed me and abandoned me after she had me and t

    It was still Greyson. Seeing that he was being so persistent, Taya was a little at a loss. She didn’t accept his friend request, and instead, she cleared all the messages and notifications. When she was planning to deactivate her account, she saw the group chat with all the clients she had worked with before, and someone had tagged Griffon. That group was established by the headquarters of Thorin Group to manage their clients, and the people in it were basically CEOs of conglomerates. She thought that after her death, people from the company would kick her out of the group, but she didn’t expect that… The person who tagged Griffon was Henry, the general manager of the Wilton pack. It seemed that there he had an urgent matter to discuss with Griffon, so he directly tagged him in the group. However, it was impossible for Griffon to respond to this kind of message. Previously, it was the people from Thorin Group who asked her to persuade him to join the group. Thinking of the past, Taya

    Amon said unhurriedly, “You don’t have to sign. It’s fine with me anyway…” Taya sized Amon up and questioned, “Why do you want to go back to Aronland all of a sudden?” He must have something important to do for him to leave. Afraid that he would no longer be able to control her after he left, he decided to ask her to sign a blank agreement first. Amon was not emotional, and said in a low voice, “George said that Rosalie’s child is sick, so I wanted to go and see her.” Her sister’s child? Taya was taken aback by the sudden news. “She… Did she have a child with you?” Amon suddenly smiled, but his eyes were full of disgust. “She had the child with her ex-husband.” Since when did Rosalie have an ex-husband? Taya was completely stunned, and she stared blankly at Amon, speechless. Amon raised his eyebrows, and asked, “Do you also think it’s ridiculous?” The surprised expression on Taya’s face gradually faded away. She didn’t know anything about her sister, and everything she knew was what A

    Taya felt that there was something hidden in Amon’s words as if he was implying something to her. However, she didn’t bother to ask. Amon wouldn’t tell her anyway. Amon really didn’t plan to talk to her. After giving her a reminder, he straightened his body, turned around, and left, Seeing the luxury car speeding away, Taya heaved a sigh of relief. Although she knew that Amon would come back, at least she was free for a short period of time. However, when she thought of the 3 billion, her body tensed up once again. She was still squatting on the ground in a daze when Harper called and asked her why she hadn’t arrived yet. Taya put away her messy thoughts and replied, “I’m coming right over.” Then, she drove to Harper’s villa.Harper was afraid that Taya had not had lunch, so she prepared a lot of food and laid everything out in the small garden. Seeing Taya getting out of the car from a distance, Harper quickly called her over, “Taya, come and have something to eat.” Seeing the enthus

    Silas, we made an agreement when we were young that we would move in together when we grew up. Since you and Taya are back, you can move to my place.” Harper bought that villa not only because Taya told her in her dream that she would build a house in another world and pick them up afterlife, but also because Harper remembered the promise she made when she was a child. And after experiencing so many changes and separation, as a family, they should live together and cherish each other. However, when Nora heard Harper’s words, she hurriedly stopped her. “No, Mr. Johnson can’t leave this place. It will be too dangerous for him to do so.”Harper was stunned for a moment, but she understood what Nora meant. Although Jackson was dead, it didn’t mean that Silas would be safe forever. If the Sterling family found out that he was still alive, he might not be able to escape death. It seemed that they could no longer be together freely like they were when they were young. Harper, Taya, and Silas

    Seeing that scene, Taya looked to the ground. She suddenly recalled the time when he also took Tara’s hand and left right in front of her eyes. At that time, she was not in any place to say anything, and right then, she had even less of a right to mind it. What they had between them was over, so it had nothing to do with her whoever he was with right then… After watching the pair get into the luxury car, Harper looked away and glanced at Taya. Seeing that Taya had calmed down, Harper knew what she was thinking. “Taya, she’s just holding his arm. It’s nothing. Don’t think too much… Moreover, he didn’t see you just now. If he saw you, he would definitely not get close to other women…” Harper was biased towards Silas. After all, he was her younger brother.However, if Taya still loved Griffon, then Harper was even more worried that Taya would be sad because of it. Taya raised the corners of her lips, looked at Harper, and smiled softly, “I didn’t think much about it, don’t worry.” Harper

    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.
