Maisie squinted her eyes. “Eugene would never suspect Ryleigh, and Ryleigh doesn’t know that you’re the one who exposed the news. Other than both of us…”Barbara looked at her and said, “I believe you. But of course, if he suspects you, you can also sell me out.”Maisie shook her head and replied in a serious manner, “I won't break my promise to you, and as for the video, I will find a way to get it for you.”When Barbara came out of Soul and left in her car, the woman in a blue car not far away looked at the car that was moving further away and frowned. “Isn’t that Barbara?”Maizie knew who Barbara was, but she did not expect to bump into her here.‘Could it be that she knows Maisie?’In the evening, at Blackgold…The sunlight from the westbound sun spilled into the desk through the ceiling-to-floor window. Nolan was sitting in a leather chair with his head held down as he sorted through the documents in front of him. The light cast on his profile had further accentuated the pe
Nolan carried her to the table and secured her tightly in his strong arms. He pressed his forehead against hers and revealed a foxy smile. “How are you gonna pay me then?” Maisie coiled her legs around his waist and planted one kiss after another on him.“With my body? How does that sound?”“That sounds great to me,” Nolan replied in a serious manner and without any hesitation.The next morning, a ray of sunlight cast on the bed through the slit of the curtains. Maisie turned sideways but found no one beside her. Her senses were slowly returning to her when she heard the sound of keyboard tapping.She slowly cracked her eyes open and got up from the bed. She did not know when Nolan woke up. He was sitting behind his desk, typing away on his keyboard as he stared fixedly at his computer. She took a look at the clock—7:00 a.m. When Nolan lifted his cup of coffee, he raised his head and noticed that Maisie had woken up. He looked at her with a gentle smile in his eyes as he asked,
When Maisie saw that Nolan had been staring at the screen, she asked sarcastically, “Do you like these videos so much?”“I’m not…” Nolan said helplessly. However, he came to a sudden stop before he could finish his sentence when he realized something. With a smile tugging at the corner of his lips, he lifted her chin and said, “Why should I look at the videos when I have you?”Maisie’s face turned red.Nolan stopped teasing her and said, “Alright, let’s get back to business. Is this the video you’re looking for?”Maisie slowly turned her head over to the screen. Those disgusting videos were long gone, and the video that he clicked into was a backup clip that had been saved several years ago.She turned her body around and sat with her back straight. The person inside of the video was indeed Barbara. Although it happened several years ago, her appearance had not changed much.Barbara was being pinned on the bed by a man. She was struggling with all her might but to no avail. The v
Eugene pushed Katrina away.She was stunned and looked at him in shock. “Eugene…”Eugene pulled out a box of cigarettes and held one stick between his lips. He lit it up with a lighter and said, “Even if I want to marry you, the Bouchers won’t allow me to do so. You should be aware of that, Katty.”The smile on Katrina’s face froze. It slowly disappeared as she said, “So, you were lying to me?”Eugene lost the patience he used to have with her. “Manor, car, money, I can give you everything you want, so why are you still not satisfied yet?” Katrina’s shoulder shook. She had started a relationship with the 48-year-old Eugene at the age of 25, and she had been his "invisible" lover for five years for only one reason. She wanted to become his wife to exact her revenge plan on the Chases. But now, her plan was foiled.She became agitated as she shouted, “Are you messing with me, Eugene?”Eugene gave a slap on her cheek. She couldn’t evade in time and fell onto the floor. “You're
Samantha was stunned. She looked at him in disbelief as he grabbed her by her neck. Even though he did not exert much force, she still felt suffocated.He asked, “Did you expose the things between Katrina and me just to force me to sign the divorce papers?”Samantha laughed. “Do you think I’m the one who did it?”Eugene did not say anything in return.At the same time, a woman came in with two bodyguards. She was none other than Barbara.Katrina was stunned when she saw Barbara. “Yelena?”Yelena was Barbara’s name before changing it. No one was more familiar with Barbara’s face than Katrina.“You’ve returned?”It went without saying that Eugene knew Yelena was a member of the Chases. It was just that he did not expect her to show up here.Barbara was not afraid at all when she saw Eugene. She ignored Katrina and said to Eugene, “I heard that you're looking for the person who exposed your scandal, Mr. Boucher?”After hearing what she said, Eugene looked at her suspiciously and
Katrina would always carry her cell phone with her. She would not even let Eugene touch it because others could not know all the secrets that were stored in the cell phone.She was even thinking about disclosing the secrets stored inside this cell phone if Eugene were to really force herself into doing something that she did not want to. Eugene was not going to get by easily if he were to decide to make things difficult for her.‘But why would Barbara know about this?’Looking at Katrina’s panicked expression, Barbara believed what Maisie had said even more now.‘There’s indeed something on her phone that can be used to threaten Eugene.’Eugene was not a fool either. He had realized the minor changes in Katrina’s expression, so he requested Katrina to hand over her cell phone, but Katrina refused.It was until Barbara asked the bodyguard to subdue her on the floor. Katrina resisted fiercely. “Yelena Chase, what in the world are you trying to do? Since you know what I keep on my p
‘She’s the one who exposed the scandal between Eugene and Katrina and sent me Stanford Manor’s address on purpose, telling me that Eugene and Katrina would be here. Did she do all these so that I could be here to watch this play live?’Barbara smiled. “I don’t mean anything else. I just wanted you to witness this scene and then rethink your stand on your divorce with Mr. Boucher.”Samantha was stunned for a moment and did not speak.Barbara added, “Katrina wants to get herself through the gates of the Bouchers and into the family, but the Bouchers will never agree to that. And I can’t let her do so either. You should have witnessed her fate now. Mr. Boucher had no intention of marrying her all this while, so if it’s not for these incidents, Katrina would have accepted her position in life and lived as Mr. Boucher’s mistress, while Mr. Boucher still wouldn’t end his relationship with her.”Samantha had already decided that she wanted to proceed with the divorce, and she could also u
Ryleigh looked at the two of them. “His ex-girlfriend is quite a famous lady, her name is Xyla Mayweather, a supermodel, and her father is the chairman of Royal Crown Entertainment Co.”Maisie got into a slight pause.‘Xyla Mayweather? This name sounds very familiar.’She then asked, “Is she the international supermodel who often appears on the Sheena Jewelry Show?”Ryleigh nodded.Maisie smiled. “Then I know who she is. She signed a contract with Luxella back when I was still in Stoslo, and she is Luxella’s ambassador for the Eurasia continent. I was fortunate enough to meet her a few times back in Stoslo nine years ago. She’s indeed very beautiful-looking.”Ryleigh rolled her eyes. “Isn’t this a small, small world?”Barbara placed her hand on her shoulder. “Ryleigh, don’t be discouraged. They still broke up no matter how gorgeous she looks, didn’t they? Maybe Mr. Lucas doesn’t like her type?”Ryleigh glanced at her. “He’s managed to be with her for six straight years even tho
