Unfortunately, due to scheduling conflicts, we haven’t been able to reach an agreement. This time might be just as challenging…”
As he spoke, the assistant’s tense demeanor revealed his fear of saying something wrong and being met with Beatriz’s wrath.
“Due to scheduling conflicts?” Beatriz scoffed, tossing a file at him, which landed perfectly in his lap.
Opening the file, the assistant wasn’t surprised, but his legs started to tremble with fear.
“President, we’ve really made efforts to negotiate. We’ve spoken with Cassandra’s manager multiple times, but they insist on the schedule being unworkable unless…”
Beatriz perked up at the mention of an opportunity, her expression softening slightly. “Unless what?”

Luca paused, knocked on the door again, and said, "The designer from LW Brand, Eric, will also be joining us for dinner tomorrow."‘Eric, the designer from LW Brand?’ This was the primary reason she had come to London. If she could collaborate with Eric, it would open doors for Cortex to enter the jewelry design market and expand its multi-disciplinary projects.But after several days in London, all her attempts to meet Eric had been rejected. Yet, Luca managed to arrange this so easily?A trace of doubt crossed her mind. She opened the door, meeting his gaze as she asked, "Are you serious about this?"Luca smiled confidently. "Of course. I never lie."Despite her hesitation, Vanessa couldn't resist the opportunity to meet Eric. She gave a small nod, signaling her agreement."Send me the time and address for tomorr

She looked like she was sulking, her tone intentionally childish, as if trying to annoy him.To Luca’s surprise, he found it a bit endearing. Unconsciously, the corners of his mouth lifted, revealing a doting smile.Fueled by the alcohol, Vanessa noticed his smile and immediately reached out to pinch his face, fuming. "What are you smiling at? Are you laughing at me?""Ow, not so hard."Luca didn’t get angry. Although it hurt a little, he just frowned slightly, still speaking in a gentle tone.But Vanessa didn’t seem pleased, grumbling, "Serves you right. Compared to what I went through, this little pain is nothing..."Thinking he hadn’t heard her, she continued to mess around for a while before finally falling asleep in his arms.In the taxi, Vanessa rested her head on his shoulder, her steady breathing confirming she was a

Vanessa looked at him with a cold smile and said, “Mr. Kensington, you think too much.”Her distant tone and indifferent reaction caught Luca completely off guard.He was momentarily at a loss for words, using the last bit of his patience to calmly say, “I’ll wait for you to finish. Shouldn’t we have a talk?”Vanessa wanted to refuse, but seeing he had no intention of giving up, she sighed in resignation and turned to her assistant. “Please have Mr. Kensington wait for me in my office.”After saying that, she turned and headed to the elevator, continuing with her work meeting.The assistant respectfully led Luca upstairs and prepared some tea before leaving to attend to his own tasks.Luca observed Vanessa’s office, noting a photo of her and Isla on her desk—with no one else in the frame.This piqued his curiosity.

Screech— The deafening sound of brakes. Bang— The violent crash. At the scene, one car collided with the nearby fence due to brake failure, while another car ran a red light, resulting in a severe rear-end collision. In an instant, the situation turned catastrophic, with dozens of cars involved in a chain reaction, and the front vehicles crumpled beyond recognition. The only car that avoided the worst of it was now wedged against the fence, the airbag deployed, trapping Vanessa inside. With everyone working together, they first rescued the terrified Isla from the back seat, who had been crying uncontrollably. When Isla saw the horrific scene of the mangled vehicles, her cries abruptly ceased as she struggled in the arms of a bystander, repeatedly calling for her mother. Vanessa, with a slight bleeding on her forehead, was disoriented and unaware of the severi

Three days later.Vanessa had been discharged from the hospital and had been keeping an eye on Beatriz's movements. Although she hadn't found anything suspicious, she never intended to let the matter of the accident go so easily.After all, it had almost harmed her daughter, and she couldn’t let it slide.After days of investigation, her assistant had managed to contact a recently resigned accountant from Ness Corp and confirmed that the money was specially approved by Beatriz.“It’s definitely her. Looks like I’ll need to use some tactics,” Vanessa said, a cold smile curling at the corners of her mouth, showing no sign of backing down.After giving her assistant a few instructions and finalizing the day's workflow, she changed into a powerful outfit from the latest season.“Today I have personal matters to attend to and will not accept any work a

Later that night.In a presidential suite of a five-star hotel, Beatriz stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, a glass of red wine in hand, her eyes filled with a mix of pleasure and cunning. “Originally, everything was going smoothly with the plan, but now there’s a small hill in the way. What do you think I should do?” A refined man in a well-tailored shirt approached her, also holding a glass of red wine, his eyes filled with affection and intimacy. “Who could possibly stand in your way?” Beatriz didn’t respond, only smiled at him, making him deeply infatuated.Unable to help himself, he reached out, his breath unsteady as he leaned in closer, saying, “Then let’s eliminate her!” Upon hearing this, Beatriz smiled, allowing him to revel in her scent. “Then I’ll leave this matter to you.” “Alright, leave it to me…” He was so enraptured that he lost his senses.

It was only around 3 PM, and Vanessa had already briefed her assistant before leaving work. She ran into Mariah, who had just seen off a client. “President, are you planning to work yourself to death, trying to stick it out until the very end?” Seeing her joke about herself, Vanessa pretended to be angry. “If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll seal your lips!” “Alright, alright, no more jokes. Where are you off to?” Mariah offered a few options. “Are you going to meet a client or the president of the K Group?” Vanessa rolled her eyes and explained, “Didn’t you say I should pay more attention to my daughter? I’m picking her up from school and taking her out to eat.” “Oh, how rare! President Saxon remembers she has a daughter.” “This is the company; don’t tarnish my reputation.” After some playful banter, Mariah finally laughed and said, looking at the time, “You should hurry; otherwise, you’ll be late.” Realizing the time, Vanessa immediately head

As soon as Isla heard the word “safe,” she immediately hugged Luca like a little ornament. With a charming smile, she sweetly asked, “Then, Uncle, can you come pick me up when Mommy is busy?” Luca was taken aback because, apart from Ezra, almost all the other children would avoid him, intimidated by his cold, emotionless demeanor. Sometimes, they would even cry in fear, making him hesitant to approach. During their first meeting, he thought she was afraid of him; now, why had she become so clingy? Vanessa looked surprised as well, trying to signal Isla several times, but she simply refused to get down from Luca's arms. With no other choice, Vanessa could only apologize awkwardly, saying, “She’s just a child; please don’t be upset, Mr. Kensington.” “Not at all.” His tone seemed to grow even colder. Just when Vanessa thought he didn’t like clingy kids— “Do you

Luca was taken aback. “What’s so uncomfortable about that?”As soon as he finished speaking, Vanessa shot him an eye-roll, silencing him instantly.Luca replied awkwardly, “Well… I still have to attend the meeting. I’ll try my best not to look at you.”Vanessa wasn’t sure how much ‘trying’ that meant, as Luca continued to stare at her throughout the meeting.Vanessa could only do her best to ignore the intense gaze, focusing on the meeting materials instead. However, due to her nerves, she stumbled over her words a few times while speaking, leaving her feeling flustered, but there was nothing she could do about Luca.Meanwhile, Mariah and Cassandra arrived at the agreed location.In front of the elegant Japanese restaurant, a young man in a suit had been waiting f

Not knowing if Cassandra had understood, Mariah adjusted her face and said earnestly, “Cassandra, don’t misunderstand. I was just trying to help you out. I really don’t like girls!”At that moment, Cassandra's intoxication caught up with her, and she could hardly hear what Mariah was saying before she drowsily fell asleep.Watching Cassandra sleep in her arms, Mariah found the situation both amusing and exasperating. She could only call a car to take her home.The next morning, Cassandra woke up with a terrible headache, groggily sitting up while holding her head, piecing together the fragmented memories of the night before.‘Did I really kiss Mariah last night? Oh no, she can’t seriously think I like girls, or that I have feelings for her, can she?’Realizing what she had done, Cassandra tightly wra

“Really?” Mariah’s interest was piqued. The actor Leonardo Blue was her perfect idol—talented and skilled, it was as if heaven had blessed him with a career.“I wouldn’t joke about this. Recently, at an event, I happened to be a guest alongside him. Since you mentioned before that he’s your idol, I casually asked him for an autographed photo for you. When are you free? I can give it to you,” Cassandra said.Hearing that she could get an autographed photo of her idol, Mariah felt her spirits lift, sweeping away the earlier gloom. She quickly replied, “I’m free tonight. How about we grab dinner?”“Great! It’s a deal. I’ll send you the location later.”The two quickly settled on a time and place to meet.Cassandra’s sudden call to Mariah wasn’t coincidental; it was actually a request from Luca.Luca had been keeping an eye on Vanessa&rsqu
The Billionaire Ex-Wife Returns True Feeling
Hearing this, Luca’s face paled slightly, and his thoughts were pulled back to the past…“I actually didn’t hate you. I mean, back five years ago.” Luca hesitated, unsure how to convey his feelings to Vanessa so that she would believe him.Five years ago, when he learned that he was about to marry Vanessa, Luca felt a sense of resistance. He knew that Vanessa liked him, but at that time, he didn’t have any feelings for her.Luca disliked the feeling of being controlled by others. He initially didn’t want this arranged marriage and even transferred his frustration onto Vanessa.However, it seemed that Vanessa didn’t notice his aversion. She continued to revolve around him every day.Seeing the pampered young lady, who had never touched the kitchen before, learn to cook for him, burning her hands and hiding them behind her back in fear of him noticing, Luca had to admit that, from that moment on, his h

“This is a list of some projects currently managed by our project department, along with their respective leaders. You can take a look.”Luca glanced over it, and finding it satisfactory, he replied, “Can I take this back to review? Of course, if possible, it would be great if I could also borrow the project materials to look at.”“Of course.” Beatriz handed over a stack of documents without hesitation.With the materials in hand, Luca felt he had achieved the purpose of his visit and didn’t want to linger a moment longer. “Then I’ll take my leave, President Langley.”“Wait a moment,” Beatriz called out hurriedly as she saw Luca about to leave. “Luca, don’t you have anything you want to say to me? Ezra has been missing you a lot these days.”Thinking of Ezra softened Luca’s heart momentarily, but he quickly reminded himself that this was just Beatriz&rsq

After confirming that the person seated before her was Vanessa, whom she despised to the core, Beatriz exclaimed sharply, “Vanessa, how dare you be here? This is the board meeting of Ness Corp; who gave you the audacity to sit here as an outsider?!”Beatriz’s emotions were running high, her tone involuntarily rising, and her voice slightly trembling.“I am a shareholder of Ness Corp, so why shouldn't I be here for the board meeting?” Vanessa replied fearlessly, locking eyes with Beatriz.Compared to Beatriz, Vanessa appeared remarkably calm.Hearing this, Beatriz remained skeptical and turned to her assistant, whispering, “Is what she said true?”The assistant nodded but dared not meet Beatriz’s gaze.“Why are you only mentioning something so important now?” Beatriz’s voice carried an unmistakable edge of anger.The assistant lowered her head even further.The ot

‘Ness Corp, a well-known company in the capital, is suspected of defrauding consumers, as the quality of their products has significantly declined, raising concerns among customers about the materials used in their products.’ Just a few days after the delivery, Ness Corp found itself in the news due to quality issues.The efficacy of the products was something only industry insiders could truly assess. Beatriz had hoped to weather this materials crisis by delivering on time, but she never expected that someone would seize the opportunity to expose their problems.As more and more customers reported obvious defects in the products they received, and some even conducted experiments to verify their suspicions, it became apparent that Ness Corp might be involved in consumer fraud. The company was thrown into chaos.All morning, Beatriz wore a gloomy e

Upon receiving the response, Vanessa felt a bit disappointed, but at least the other party hadn’t outright rejected her, which made her feel there was still a chance to negotiate.“Alright, I hope Mr. Aamon will reconsider. I’ll take my leave for now.”After leaving Mr. Aamon's office, Vanessa met with several other executives, but received the same reply from each of them.Back at Cortex, she sat down and closed her eyes for a moment to rest.After a day of running around, she was utterly exhausted.When Luca arrived, her assistant stopped him at the door. “Mr. Kensington, Miss Saxon is resting right now and isn’t available to meet. Would you like to wait in the reception area?”Upon hearing this, Luca furrowed his brow and asked worriedly, “Is she unwell again?”

Without Alden, Beatriz felt as if she had lost her right-hand man. The thought of having her most useful pawn ripped away left her deeply resentful."It's all Vanessa’s fault," she fumed. "If that wretched woman hadn’t kept competing with me over Luca, I wouldn’t have gotten caught up in this mess and made these mistakes."“I’ll make her pay,” Beatriz swore under her breath.Since Vanessa cared so much about Cortex, Beatriz decided she’d make sure that company couldn't survive. ‘Let’s see how she’ll fight me after that.’With that thought, she picked up her phone and called one of her business partners. “Mr. Aamon, it’s been a while.”“Miss Langley! What a pleasant surprise. What made you think of calling me today?” Aamon sounded genuinely surpris
