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
In the face of her questioning, Griffon’ lips parted, as if he bintended to tell the truth. Yet, in the situation where he was surrounded by police and hotel staff, he couldn’t provide his response. When Neil saw that the incomer was Griffon, he was appalled… “Alpha Knight, don’t tell me you have a fetish for forcing yourself on others using a fake identity?” Griffon’ thick eyebrows twitched. The frost that burst out from his eyes landed on Neil’s body. Neil’s subconscious reaction when catching the gaze was to glance at his feet. Fortunately, he didn’t wear slippers that day. Griffon slowly withdrew his gaze. When he noticed Taya staring at him, he couldn’t help panicking.He couldn’t wait to tell her the truth, but he forgot who he used to be and how he had forced her. If she knew that he was Greyson, the resent she had for him might grow. After all, in her eyes, Greyson was an unforgivable criminal… Griffon stood where he was. After a few seconds of contemplation, the sullen look i
In the opposite room, Zack inspected the room after leading Griffon in. Seeing that the occupant of the room happened to be absent, Zack breathed a sigh of relief. He turned around to face Griffon and raised the card, a confident smile spreading across his face. “My hacking skills aren’t too bad, isn’t it?” Griffon gave him a firm pat on the shoulder to express his approval before his expression turned ice-cold. “Zack, did you send someone to follow me?” When Griffon’ hand was on his shoulder, Zack felt an invisible pressure that weighed thousands of kilograms on him. His body was stiff, his face pale. Zack was so secretly guilty that he couldn’t even bring himself to look at Griffon. All he could do was maintain his head lowered as he confessed the truth. “Ms. Davies was afraid that you’d expose your identity, so I had no choice but to send our men to follow you…” Griffon’ thin lips parted slightly as an icy glint flashed through his eyes. “Don’t forget who you’re working for.” The m
Feeling suspicious, Taya cast a look at the opposite room, wondering how it was too much of a coincidence for Griffon to appear there… He had a private manor in Arcadia and was a total clean freak. No matter how luxurious the hotel was, he could never stay in it. How could… While Taya couldn’t figure things out, Neil took a glance at her mobile phone. What? Greyson is not coming?” The policemen who had wanted to return to guarding the fire exit halted in their tracks when they heard Neil’s startled voice. “What happened?” Taya explained to the police officers upon coming back to herself. “Police officers, I’m sorry, but Greyson may have found out about our actions. He has informed us to change the time and location, so he won’t be showing up today.” After apologizing, Taya gave the police officers another bow. “I’m sorry that your trip is in vain.Although the police felt that it was a waste of police force, they did not blame Taya and Neil for it, and instead, reminded them to seek t
The man suffering a slap in the face had his tears streaming in pain, but he dared not make a single yelping sound again. After a so b, he spoke up, tremblingly, explaining everything to them. “I just… tore her clothes, grabbed her limbs, and… got on her.” “But I swear, I’ve only touched her as I mentioned, and I didn’t do anything else to her. Please show some mercy on me!” “I have a family to care for, I…” Before he could blurt out all the lines he had memorized so well, Zack sent a second hard slap over.Shut up!!!” He had dealt with so many bad guys, but he had never met someone as chatty! If Alpha Knight hadn’t stepped forward to deal with it himself, he would have blocked that man’s mouth so that he wouldn’t be able to make a sound! Griffon didn’t pay attention to the man’s words at all. Instead, he slowly shifted the Rhile,Where did you hurt her?” Without daring to delay any second longer, the man told the truth. “I just pierced her arm with a knife. I dared not go further.” The
Soon, the sound of steady and powerful footsteps came from behind the closed door, step by step approaching the door before they came to a sudden halt. Taya thought that the other party would open the door at once, but she found that no further movements were observed and were about to raise her hand for another knock when the door swung open. A hand with distinct protruding knuckles grabbed her wrist and pulled her in at light speed…. Neil standing outside the door had only seen a hand stretching out before Taya disappeared with a whoosh. Not only the iron rods he had brought along and the ruffians he hired were useless, but also Taya ended up being held hostage as well… He stood still, the corners of his mouth twitching, his face distorted in rage when a group of bodyguards rushed out from nowhere. The leader pointed at him and yelled, “Send them to the police station and sue them for an intentional riot!” When the group of gangsters heard that they were going to be sent to the poli
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
