As soon as Hailey reached home, Zane went to her and begged her to attend the opening party that was organized by Asher.She did not like to show up in front of so many people, but the little boy begged her with teary eyes, so she had to compromise.Asher snapped his fingers. "On saturday afternoon, I will take you for a hairdo, then let the stylist match it with a set of gown for you. You must appear in front of everyone in a charming and attractive manner, and make a striking impression on the others."Hailey looked at him in resignation. "I'm not going for a beauty pageant. Why are you being so exaggerated?""It's not an exaggeration at all. My mommy is the most beautiful woman. You must be the most beautiful one at the party. You will be the most exquisite and attractive lady there!"Hearing Zane's shameless remarks, Hailey was more helpless. "When did you learn to say such things?"Zane smiled proudly and said, "The teacher in the kindergarten taught me.""By the way, Hailey, I w
"Nikolai, I really can't help it...."Agnes bit her lip, and tears were falling down her cheeks. She was crying vigorously now."My second grandpa is not going to live for long. The doctor said that he may not live for more than half a month... His last wish is that I can get married. I didn't want my second grandpa to pass away with regret... Nikokai, I can only be so shameless and ask you to put up a show with me. I only have such a small request...""Is there anything else?"Nikolai's voice was extremely cold.Agnes's voice was a little shaky, "Nikolai, I just want you to accompany me to the hospital to visit my second grandpa""If you're done talking, just leave""Will you.....go?"Agnes bit her lips and stubbornly stared at Nikolai's cold face."Is second Master George related to me?" The man said coldly, "Why should I go?""Nikolai...."Agnes felt that she had been slapped, and she was burning with shame, "I begged you to help George's cooperation Jewelry to be listed. I begged
By the time Zane realized that he had accidentally laughed out loud, it was already too late.As soon as he looked up, he saw that Natalie had widened her eyes and staring into his eyes now. They looked into each other's eyes and fell into a deep silence."You.....who are you?"Natalie pointed to the place under the coffee table and stammered.Zane was as quiet as a mouse. He could not bring himself for laughing easily. Not only did he smile, but he even laughed out loud.He touched his nose in an embarrassing manner, jumped out from under the table, and posed a cool posture. He opened his arms exaggeratedly and raised his voice, "Surprise!"It was extremely quiet.Nikolai was holding a cigarette butt in his hand. He became stunned and he frowned deeply.Zane scratched his chin and smiled dryly. "Uncle Nikolai, are you surprised and shocked to see me here?"Natalie was confused..She knew that Mr Nikolai had a niece but she had never heard of a nephew.She thought, 'But this child add
Zane lowered his head and played with his fingers shyly. He averted his gaze, and he quicklime thought of resolutions inwardly."That's right!" His eyes lit up. "Uncle Nikolai, I'm here to apologize!"He could not run away from his responsibility for what happened in the hospital that day anyway. It was better to admit it generously."In fact, I haven't slept well these days, because I did something terrible a few days ago..."The little boy sighed, and his eyes suddenly became teary. He looked very pitiful too. "Don't adults in this country always say that we should be honest? Can you forgive me if I admit to my mistake honestly?"Hearing his tone, Nikolai could not help narrowing his eyes. "isn't this your country too?"Zane grinned, "Of course thus is my country, but I grew up abroad ""Which country?""NC country...."Having said that, Zane suddenly shut up and said warily, "Uncle Nikolai, why do you ask me these questions? Let's talk about the matter of being honest."Nikolai did
There was roaring laughter.On the rooftop opposite Cokes Corp, Tower, Asher burst into laughter and rolled on the ground.Zane stood proudly on the steps and said, "Dad, aren't I quite awesome? I let him drink the water without any effort. You should praise me. Hurry up and praise me!""Zaney, you're amazing. No wonder you're my son!""Daddy, give me the telescope. I want to see what that bad guy looks like after he was drugged."Asher coughed, and he was almost choked by himself. He snatched the telescope back and said fiercely, "No! Absolutely not!""Why not?""It's not suitable for children. Do you understand that?"Just as Zane was thinking about what was not suitable for children, his phone rang.When he saw the caller ID, he was shocked. As soon as he picked up, he heard Hailey's angry voice from the phone. "Mr Lorenzo, I have been waiting for you for almost half an hour downstairs. Where are you? Why haven't you come yet?""Hey, why did I forget about it when I got busy? Just
Belinda's facial expression had always been cold, but she appeared much colder that day. She held the document in her hand for a long time, and she did not turn over a single page.Natalie was sitting on the chair with a depressed face. She had the lowest position in the secretary department and had basically never been to President Nikolai office. The first time she went there, she was scolded so badly. How could she not feel depressed?While she was fidgeting, she saw Hailey coming into the office.She said angrily, "You left for half an hour during office hours. Hailey, do you think that you own this place?"Hailey knew that she was in the wrong, so she said lightly, "I won't do it next time.""Mr Nikokai just asked someone to clean up the broken glasses in the office. You'd better go in quickly. President Nikolai will scold the others if he gets impatient!"Natalie's words made Hailey frown.Did these people just wait for her to go and clean up the place?Belinda had always been t
The nightmare which she experienced five years ago engulfed her intensely and invisibly."Hailey, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."Nikolai's voice was tense with a hunt of tremor. He acted in an urgent but extremely careful manner, as if he was treating the most precious work if art. He carefully head Hailey's face.That was the person that he had been thinking about for five years.She was right in front of him. She was right by his side. How could he be willing to let her go?He stroked Hailey's face with his index finger, and he intensified his strength gradually. Then he lowered his head slowly.Hailey was terrified and her eyes became teary.She knew that crying was not useful.Tears were useless to him.She put her hands behind her, and she groped on the bedside cabinet. Soon, she found a table lamp.He pressed his warm but cold lips against her thin lips. He kissed her affectionately and passionately, giving her an illusion that she was being properly cherished and cared for
In the living room.At the dinning table, Zane nudged Asher's arm and said, "Daddy, didn't you find anything wrong with Mommy?""A little." Asher nodded and said, "Most human beings are in this state after they've received a great blow. There's nothing to be surprised about."Zane raised his eyebrows complacently. "Does that mean that our plan has succeeded?""It should be" Asher looked at Hailey and smiled. "It's late at night. Why have you been absent minded?"Hailey recovered herself and smiled. "Oh, I was thinking about work ""Your job is nothing more than serving tea and wiping the table. What's there to think about?" Asher said casually.Hailey looked at him sharply, "How do you know about the details of my work?"Asher became speechless. He was stunned and he swallowed the food in his mouth with difficulty.Could he say that he saw it on the rooftop of a building opposite the Coke's Corp Tower that day with a telescope? Of course not!Otherwise, there would be a terrible argum
The fiasco started by Asher ended after Shirley ruined her own vocal cord.Hailey knew that she had done the best she could since she had sent people to take care of Asher. At this moment, the most important thing for her was to live her own life.******* ********"Zaney, honey, your momma is pregnant...you will have a little sibling soon, okay" Mrs Coke was the first to whisper into Zane's ears."Yahhhhh, grandma" Zane grinned. He rushed to hug Hailey, his little hands wrapped around Hailey's hips as he nuzzled her nose against Hailey's belly.Mrs Coke smiled.Nikolai thanked Doc Cyril and walked out of the office, Mrs Coke was the one who held Hailey while Nikolai had Zaney in his arms.It was indeed a beautiful sight!The most beautiful scene Nikolai had ever imagined••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••2months After....These past two months were the best for Hailey. She had a good reconciliation with her father and her lost Angie, Angie got serious mental issues and even the doctors c
After taking Hailey out of the national registration department, Nikolai did not bring her home directly, he drove her straight to the hospital.Although Asher said that pill would only make Hailey lose her voice temporarily and had no other side effects, Nikolai was still worried.Besides, Hailey had been kidnapped by Prince Peter. He did not know if they had hurt her, so he had to let the doctor check her carefully before he could be rest assured.When she got in the car and found that it was not the way home, Hailey still could not utter a word.She could only sit in the shotgun seat and keep waving her hand at Nikolai who was driving to show thar except for her voice she was very healthy without any discomfort.But how could Nikolai listen to her? He only told her that she should take a rest in the car first and then drive her to the hospital for an examination before taking her to a good meal.Hailey was annoyed but she couldn't say anything. She could only stare at Nikolai and c
"No, Hailey, don't listen to her nonsense,I really didn't so it."Asher was very anxious at the moment. He tried to hold Hailey's hand but Nikolai beat him to it.Nikolai's pulled Hailey into his embrace. His tone was cold and indifferent as he said, "Let's not discuss the matter of framing me for the time being. However, if Hailey is unable to say anything, what did you do to her?"In the beginning, Hailey gave him no reply, making Nikolai assume that she was disappointed in him.But since Shirley came, Hailey looked agitated yet she still remained silent which made Nikolai feel suspicious.He was completely sure that Hailey was drugged. When Asher started explaining yo Hailey, she dud not even question him. She simply had a flustered and disappointed look in her eyes.Nikolai knew Hailey well. He knew that it was not Hailey's true reactions unless she could not speak at all.Hailey who had been protected tightly in Nikolai's embrace sighed helplessly. She looked at Asher with deeper
The four of them met in a private room in the private club. A man who looked like Doug sat at the head of the table without saying a word. He had quiet a bit of imposing manner. That was the George's family second uncle- Hayes George. "Hayes, I'm here with my two children." Doug frowned. During those years, that brother of his had been in noy much contact with him and his brothers all the time. He did not expect that they would meet in such a way. Hayes George glanced a both zephira and Doug coldly. When he looked at Hailey, he said coldly, "Hailey right? You'd better not show off your ability given that you're young. Even if you've just entered the company, you should still act sensibly" The incident about Nikolai of the Cokes family and Hailey of the Georges cooperation had been discussed vehemently in the upper class in Manila city. Everyone knew that Nikolai had used a great sum of money to gain a beauty's affection. If it was not for Nikolai's powerful tactics and the support
Austin compromised. Seeing that, Hailey looked cold but she did not push him. She said, "Then let's deal with Xyla first. Although Xyla is a member of our design apartment she has been in the company for five years. During this period of time, she has been using other's design drafts. Thus time around she has brought trouble to our George's cooperation. I decided to dismiss her. Do you have any opinions?" Even if she could not deal with Austin directly, she still had a way to deal with Xyla. In addition, that was a good opportunity. Since zephira had a soft personality as her sister, Hailey must be tough in the company and show her strength to others. Thus, others would not think that they were easy to be bullied and do the same thing as Austin again. The others witnessed how Hailey acted in a slick manner and suppressed Austin in a reasonable manner. Now that she had said something more, the others would only be convinced by her. So they said one after another, "I don't have any o
Reinvigoration - the most perfect work of art would always go through twists and turns.The signature was the name of the cooperation between the Xavier family and George's cooperation.Mer champ looked at Xyla in disbelief. When did the design department hand in such a design draft to the Xavier family? How come he dud not know anything about that?Xyla did not bring her cell phone to that conference room. At that time, she began to panic when she saw Mr champs expressionBefore she could ask, Hailey looked at Xyla with a smile and instructed. "Take this pen drive and insert it to the computer over there"Xyla had a plan in her mind, so Hailey must have her own purpose in doing so. Otherwise why would Hailey hide such a thing from the design department? Hence she did not obey Hailey's order for a long time.Hailey raised her eyebrows but she did not lose her temper. She inserted the pen drive into the computer and turned on the audio software. A woman's voice appeared on the screen.
Angie had taken the medicine for sobering up before she drank the wine, which was all to make Xyla lower her vigilance and disguise.Xyla replied directly, "Do what? Does anyone know that I plagiarized? Think about it. I have to thank you for providing me with the design drafts. Otherwise, why would I be sitting in my current position and ruin that damn Yona reputation?""I'm telling you! If you're smart, you should rely on mr. You'd better hand over the design drafts to me obediently. When Hailey is driven out of the company tomorrow, I will be the manage. I will not pursue the matter that you betrayed me."Upon hearing that, Angie frowned slightly. How could Xyla accurately explain that she would drive Hailey out of the company during the following day? Angie could not help but ask, "Why did you say that?"Xyla was almost fully drunk because if the alcohol so she did not reply to that anymore. "Haha..."She fell asleep with her head tilted.Angie stopped the recording and sent the a
When Xyla was going downstairs, although she was still not feeling well, there was a hint of joy on her face. But she only left after she thought of what he told her. He claimed that Hailey did not provide any design which the Xavier family was satisfied with. And when she thought about Angie, she had a plan in her mind.In tbe past few days, she did not see any work of Angie, but who knee if Angie had cooperation with Hailey in private?Her heart was filled with schemes. Angie's appearance had long disrupted her state of mind.Upon entering the office, Xyla suddenly heard Hailey's voice."In order to welcome Angie, I will treat you to dinner today. Let's have a meal"As soon as the manager spoke, everyone naturally agreed.Xyla smirked. Unexpectedly, someone gave her a chance just when she had a scheme in her mind.Angie was a lightweight drinker. She would say anything after drinking a few glasses of wine.When it was time to get off work, she silently tidied up the design paper on
After that day, Hailey's relationship with Nikolai was improved rapidly.Nikolai began to contact Hailey rapidly by using the communication tool though he was an introvert. He mostly greeted Hailey good morning but Hailey was quite warmed to that.She had to admit that she felt something for Nikolai again.But as for how the relationship between the two of them would develop in the future, she still had some hesitation. The past was still deep pain for her, and when she thought about that, she was grieved.She could not have more contact with him for the sake of the hurt Zaney had suffered.Yes, that was it. Now, she still had cooperation with him because of the project of the diamond factory. She could not just fall with him directly.She thought that she might need some timr to figure out what she was thinking.Hailey was in a dilemma, but the daily work had exposed her heart which wavered constantly.On several occasions, she forgave Yvonne's careless mistake and carefully helped h
