Queenie was flustered to see the look on Camden’s face. She glared viciously at Sam.“You’re being malicious!”She shouted at Sam, “You’re just trying to humiliate me. I’ve never slept with you since we got married. Why would you say that about me? Who do you think you are?!”He was just a weak, useless man!The look in Sam’s eyes turned cold at Queenie’s words. He stared at her slightly pale face and sneered, “Don’t you know why I never touched you ever since we got married? It’s because your body is dirty!”How could a woman who had a baby die inside her think of becoming Mr. Graham? Dream on!Camden stopped them impatiently when he saw them about to get into another argument.“Stop wasting time. You’ve got the money now. Hurry up and get that divorce!”He kept fiddling with his phone while Sam glanced at him with a small smile on his face.Queenie quickly told him that she was going in to get the papers signed.She was afraid.Camden had no idea of her past relationship w
Old Mr. Langley stood up slowly after instructing Nathan about this. He went back to his room to rest. Nathan and Eva looked down slightly as they watched his rickety figure walk away.After Old Mr. Langley returned to his room, Robert finally looked up at everyone sitting on the couch.“It’s useless to say anything now that things have come to this point. The most crucial thing to do right now is to come up with the money for James and his family to get through this. I can offer 300 million from my personal account.”James' and Sue’s eyes lit up with delight when they heard Robert say this. Robert waved them off and said, “I’m not giving it to you for free. I’m loaning it to you. You have to return the money to me once your company makes a profit.”“Of course, Dad.”James said excitedly, “Don’t worry. We’ll return the money if you loan it to us. Once we get through this, we’ll return it to you with interest!”They lacked the financial capital.If they could pump in more money,
James and Sue looked coldly at Nathan as they shouted, “Are you crazy? You want us to kneel and apologize to you? Let’s just fight it out instead. We’re not afraid of you!”Elena stared darkly at Eva as well.Since this bitch married into the Langleys, there had been no peace. She even claimed that Elena was a Garner. Eva only dared to say so because she could give Nathan children and make Nathan listen to her.Elena spoke up coldly at this point, “Be careful, Eva Lane. It’s easy for something to happen when you’ve got so many children.”Eva gritted her teeth and clenched her hands.She understood that Elena was threatening her with the safety of her children!Eva did not retort. All she did was stare at Elena. Nathan held her hand and turned to look at Elena. His tone was cold and distant. “Fine. I’ve had enough of your dirty tricks. If you refuse to give up, go ahead and find out for yourself if the Garners are really your family. Just wait and see!”After that, Nathan held Ev
Rose quickly waved it off when she heard Elena’s words.“Eva is a good person. Otherwise, Nathan wouldn’t have fallen for her.”“I don’t think so. What’s so great about her? From her family background to her face, body, and personality, you’re better than her in every one of those aspects. The Langleys would be in harmony if you were my sister-in-law instead, Rose. What a pity.”Elena took a sip of her coffee and quietly enjoyed the pure flavor spreading slowly in her mouth. After that, she looked at Rose carefully and asked, “I heard you’ve got a boyfriend now?”“I do.”Rose did not deny this and nodded. “His name is Scott Maguire. He’s Nathan’s right-hand man and a very outstanding person.”“Really?”Elena looked at her suggestively. “It doesn’t matter how outstanding he is, he won’t be better than Nathan. Are you telling me that you’ve never had feelings for Nathan? That’s impossible. You grew up together, didn’t you? Why didn’t you end up in a relationship?”Rose smiled whe
Nathan gently hugged Eva around the shoulders and kissed her on the forehead.He knew that she was most worried about him.“It’s going to be fine.” His voice was deep and magnetic, like a melodious cello that tugged on Eva’s heartstrings. She looked up at him, and he explained to her in a gentle voice.“This new retail format has great potential. It may look like we’re making a big loss by offering discounts and subsidies, but rolling out the promotion with delivery service builds strong consumer stickiness. "We’ll be targeting more than 30 cities next to take over the market. It won’t be a problem if we can buy over shopping malls there.”Eva felt much better when she heard this.“That’s good to know.”She held Nathan’s hand, and her eyes lit up brightly. “I was just worried that you were doing this out of anger. It’s good that you’re not.”The look in Nathan’s eyes turned cold at the mention of doing things out of anger.“I’m doing this to the Garners because they’re bein
With Elena's support, the Garners made the decision to fight Langley Corporation's retail endeavors to the very end.Two of the biggest shopping malls belonging to the Garners joined the discount and subsidy war. They even started a delivery service that also provided many discounts. They successfully won back many customers.Sebastian even held a press conference.Many of the Garners attended it, and there were many prominent figures invited to the conference. There were many reporters as well.Sebastian smiled happily when he saw many people there.This was the effect he wanted!His phone rang, and Sebastian quickly checked the call. His smile became wider when he read the message. There was a look of delight in his eyes.Elena was such a great assistant.When the conference began, Sebastian got onto the stage. He looked at everyone seated and announced the news with gusto.“The Garners will continue our subsidy program by investing one billion worth of subsidy in the first
“What exactly did you do, Nathan?”Eva had no idea and asked him softly. Nathan gently patted her face and shook his head in exasperation as he explained to her.“There have been some anomalies in the financial data belonging to two listed companies of the Garners. I found it fishy and got Scott to look into it.”There was a cold look in Nathan’s eyes and a taunting smile on his face. “I’m almost sure that these two companies have at least two to three years' worth of fake accounts. I got Scott to leak the news. "Sebastian Garner is a cunning man. He’s trying to drag Elena into this. I have to take action against him this time!”Otherwise, Sebastian might think that the Langleys were pushovers!Hmph!Eva was silent for a long time as she sensed Nathan's cold demeanor. She nodded heavily after that.“You did the right thing, Nathan.”She did not hide her disgust for Sebastian as she said coldly, “Sebastian Garner has been causing a rift between you and Elena all this while. It
Rose was a decisive and efficient person. She arrived at Thriving Dragon Bay in about ten minutes. Eva was seated on the couch. Rose smiled as she looked around.“Are you home alone? Where’s Nathan?”“He’s busy.”Eva smiled and pulled Rose to sit on the couch. “He’s been busy the entire day because of work. He doesn’t even have time for me, and I’m so bored being stuck at home. That’s why I called you, Rose. I didn’t interrupt you with anything, did I?”“It’s fine. I’m usually not that busy.”Rose took a sip of the warm milk Mrs. Wilson gave her. She smiled and said, “I like chatting with you when I have time, but you seem to be quite busy recently too. You’re pregnant, but you still need to work on your flower business. I didn’t want to disturb you.”“I’m just filling up my time.”Eva did not think much about this. “Rose, have a taste of this custard Mrs. Wilson made. She’s really good at making it. I can’t take anything too sweet, so Mrs. Wilson modified the recipe with less s
