Daisie had been heartbroken for a half month because of him.Even when they thought he was dead, they did not dare to talk about him in front of Daisie. Yet, he had forgotten everything that happened between him and Daisie?“Even though he's the same age as us, he has taken over the Knowles. Yorrick told our great grandfather that he’d become our toughest opponent in a few more years,” said Waylon.Colton gnashed his teeth. “He’ll become our toughest opponent? Who does he think he is?”“Don't underestimate him, Colton. We train ourselves to become stronger, but he has experienced more than us. Besides, he took over the company earlier, and I heard that he has received an unconditional offer from Victoria Business College. I’m confident that he will be able to break our rules within a few years.” Victoria Business College was a royal college in Yaramoor. It was also one of the top universities.Most of the highest quality business elites, architects, researchers, and executive le
Elaine opened her eyes slowly. Ian came over and grabbed her into his arms. “Hey, you almost fell asleep.”“Well, I just can’t help it. It’s too comfortable,” she replied softly.Ian moved his lips to shower a trail of kisses down her cheek.Elaine woke up and raised her head. She placed her hand on his chest and shouted, “Ian!” He chuckled but did not stop. “Did you go to visit your sister today?”“Yeah…”Lucy and Hector were going to spend New Year’s in Coralia. Since she was in Coralia as well, she went to pay her a visit. Lucy was four months into her pregnancy, and both of them had decided to hold a wedding when she had the baby.Sensing her distraction, Ian buried his head into her neck, tickling her with his short hair. She giggled and tried to run away. “Ian!”“When are we going to have our wedding too?” he asked, stunning Elaine.She had not given him a fixed answer in the past few months.In the past, Ian did not feel anxious to get married, and he just let nature
Quincy gnashed his teeth and said, “Hey, did you hear what I sa—”“Hey, you. That woman over there. Stop it right there.”Before Quincy could finish his sentence, someone appeared and interrupted him.A group of people surrounded them, and a man wearing a mink coat emerged from the crowd. He was holding a cigar between his fingers as he lifted his eyes to look at Saydie. “You’re quite a good fighter. Do you want to join our club and become one of our fighters? I assure you that you’ll get more than $160,000.”Most of the fighters had a sponsor to back them up. After all, some of the wealthy people treated wrestling as some sort of gamble. The more they bet on their target, the more money they would make once they one.Saydie had defeated all of her opponents today, so it went without saying that they would come and try to persuade her to join their club since she was such a good fighter.Saydie glanced at him indifferently and said, “I’m not interested.”She was interested in wr
They entered the car and left.The street was quiet and bereft of cars since it was New Year’s. Placing her hand on her forehead, Saydie leaned against the window and glanced at Quincy. “I thought you were going to play with them until tomorrow morning.”A smile appeared at the corner of his lips as he said, “I have no interest in fighting all night.”“If Mr. Goldmann is in danger, judging from your speed, he will be dead by the time you get to him.”Quincy chuckled. “If Mr. Goldmann is in danger, I won’t have the chance to save him either. After all, I’m an assistant. I’m not his bodyguard.”Besides, he did not think Nolan would need him to save him either.Saydie clicked her tongue. “It seems like you have a clear understanding of your job.”“Well, we just need to do what we're paid for. We should leave the fighting to the bodyguards. It's not fair for me to steal their jobs.” Quincy chuckled.“I’ve recorded what you’ve said.”He stamped on the brake and jerked his head to
Quincy had already created quite a distance between the both of them before he found out that Saydie had not caught up to him, so he went back helplessly. “I really wouldn't care if you were to get lost.”Saydie lowered her eyes and retracted her gaze sadly. “It’s not like I can’t walk back by myself.”Quincy crossed his arms. “Just what are you trying to portray yourself as?”He had long realized that Saydie did not want to go back so early. Even though she did not make it clear, he had already guessed it.Christmas and New Year’s had always been a period of time dedicated to family reunions. However, she had no parents, and she had basically celebrated all these festivals with the Goldmanns throughout all these years. To her, the Goldmanns were her current family.Saydie’s parents were not in Zlokova, so it was normal for her to feel homesick, especially during this period.Saydie looked at him and said, “I’ve never played with firecrackers and fireworks.”Quincy was stunned f
At the Lovegood mansion…Aaron slapped Violet, and Rose heard the commotion from upstairs and rushed downstairs. “Dear, what are you doing?”Violet got slapped, but she did not cry or make a huge fuss about it as if the slap had not left an itch on her.Aaron was so angry that he scattered all the photos on the table. “You’re already married to Jackie and still fooling around with other men. Do you plan to irritate me to death!?”Rose walked up to Violet’s side and picked up the photos on the floor, all of which were secretly captured by the paparazzi. And they were all showing that Violet was dating another man.“Viv, what are you—” Rose lifted her head, saw Violet’s slightly inflamed cheek, and swallowed the scolding that was about to escape her mouth.After all, she and her husband were not without fault now that her daughter was behaving like this.“Are you done?” Violet pulled her long hair back and gave off a smile. “You asked me to get married, and I got married. I did ev
Thomas looked at him. “Did she just quarrel with Mr. Lovegood again?”Although he was old, his eyesight was still at its prime that, even from a distance, he could see that her cheek was swollen.And the only person who could beat her was Aaron.Because no matter how dissatisfied his grandson was with her, his grandson would never beat her.Jackie nodded.“Then just let her rest upstairs.” Thomas sighed. He then ordered the servants to prepare some food and deliver it upstairs.Maisie looked at Thomas. Thomas really did not care about Violet’s rumors. It was already very obvious whether the rumors were true or not.After lunch, Maisie strolled with Daisie in the yard, and Daisie held her hand. “Mom, is it really an unhappy incident to be forced to get married to someone?”Maisie paused for a bit and turned to look at her. “Why would you ask such a question all of a sudden?”She replied subconsciously, “Aren’t Aunt Violet and Uncle Jackie staying together because of a forced ma
The dress itself had a more playful and distinctive design, so more mature women could not handle it too well. That was why it suited young girls more.The dress looked amazing when it was on Daisie.In addition to being young and having a good temperament, she had also inherited her parents' looks.She was 14 years old this year and had already grown into a young belle. If she were to grow up, it would not surprise Violet that she would become the number one beauty in Bassburgh.“Daisie, baby, how can you be so pretty? I love it so much!” Violet hugged her and rubbed her cheek. “If I were a man, I would wait for another ten years to get you.”She really liked Daisie’s beauty so much!Daisie felt helpless.“Yo, isn’t this Ms. Lovegood?” A slender figure came out from behind. Violet’s smile disappeared as she turned around and saw a tall, red-haired woman walking toward them.All the clothes the woman had on were from high-end luxury brands, so when coupled with her exquisite ma
