Chapter 101

Penulis: Windy Mountain
Mavis trembled, jolting away like she'd been shocked. She let out a sharp scream and shot an icy glare at Timothy. Her gaze was as cold as a blade, sharp enough to kill.

Timothy scratched his nose. "Why are you so worked up, darling?"

"Timothy, I swear, if you ever try something like this again in public, I'll cut you to pieces!" Mavis' face was icy, chilling to the bone.

Timothy grinned, raising his hands in mock innocence. "Come on, I wasn't doing anything on purpose. I noticed something wrong with your body, and I was just trying to help."

"Bullshit! There's nothing wrong with me. You're just trying to take advantage of me!" Mavis was so furious her chest hurt.

How could this shameless guy touch her and then claim he was diagnosing her? What a creep!

Timothy shrugged helplessly. "Why won't you believe me? I don't need to lie. Let me guess—you've been feeling tired lately, right? Your legs feel weak, and sometimes your vision goes black. Also, it's been a while since you had y

    Finally, someone asked, "Ms. Jefferson, what's going on?"Mavis sprang away from Timothy as if she'd been shocked. Her eyes burned with fury as she glared at him. Her face flushed with embarrassment as she glanced at the people outside. She quickly brushed back her hair, trying to regain her composure. With a cold expression, she said, "It's nothing, just a misunderstanding."Without another word, she hit the close button on the elevator. As the doors slid shut, Mavis shot daggers at Timothy, and the atmosphere in the elevator seemed to drop below freezing.Feeling a chill run down his spine, Timothy forced a smile. "What's wrong, darling?""I'm going to kill you, you bastard!" Mavis grabbed her purse and hurled it at him, completely forgetting her usual image. Timothy dodged, chuckling wryly. "Hey, can you calm down for a second? I didn't know your employees would see. And besides, I was just helping you with your illness!""Ugh, you creep! I'll never believe you again!""It

    "Plans?" For a moment, Timothy was caught off guard by Mavis's question. He didn't have any plans. Should he work hard to earn money? However, with the assets in his overseas accounts totaling in the trillions, money was hardly an issue. Perhaps he should strive for power instead. However, he was already the leader of Caelumis, the genius doctor of Efral, and the commander of the Alpha Regiment. If he wanted to stir things up, just a stomp of his foot could shake all of Efral. Perhaps he could even shake the world if he wanted to. Hence, he wondered what his plans should be about.For the first time, Timothy felt a bit lost. Since coming back after leaving Remy, he hadn't really thought about what he wanted to do. Remy's parting words had been cryptic. "Cultivate yourself by living in the mundane world. Only then will you be ready when the opportunity comes." However, Timothy still didn't know what Remy had meant by that. Mavis' voice pulled him back to reality."How abou

    "Ms. Jefferson, I apologize. I think I didn't get enough rest last night," Bianca said.Mavis nodded, her eyes drifting to Bianca's outfit. "If you're not feeling well, take some time off and get some rest. You're my personal assistant, which means you represent me. You're always on top of your game, so I expect you not to make careless mistakes." Bianca bit her lip, her face flushed with embarrassment as she looked down and realized that her buttons were fastened wrong. She immediately corrected herself, her face turning even redder with embarrassment. Mavis waved her hand dismissively. "Alright, what's the matter?"Bianca's face grew serious. "Ms. Jefferson, the board is having an unscheduled meeting. They've requested your presence."Mavis glanced at her calendar, frowning. "Today's not a board meeting day.""Yes, I'm not entirely sure what's going on, but it seems like some of the board members have organized it themselves."A cold glint flashed in Mavis' eyes, her lips cu

    Cedric had a cold smile on his face. "As expected from you, Ms. Jefferson. Even now, you act like nothing's wrong. Why don't you ask yourself, honestly, what kind of mess you've caused recently?"Mavis frowned, looking at the board members, all of whom were frowning too."I'm not aware of any mistakes I've made recently, Uncle Cedric. If there's something on your mind, just say it.""Fine, I'll be direct! Do you have any idea what kind of damage your trash-collecting fiancé has caused our group?"Mavis remained calm. "I'm not sure. Please, go ahead and tell me what impact it's had."Cedric sneered and pulled out a stack of documents, slamming them onto the table. "As everyone knows, Lyson Group is one of the strongest subsidiaries under the Lormford Chamber of Commerce. We've had a long-standing partnership with them. "Recently, Lyson Group has a project worth three billion dollars, and our company has been negotiating to secure that deal. Everything was on track for a contract

  • Too Late for Regrets   Chapter 106

    One of the board members spoke up, clearly frustrated. "Ms. Jefferson, if you and your fiancé just apologize, this will all blow over. Why insist on being stubborn and harming our interests?""Exactly! Without Lyson Group's deal, how are we supposed to recover our losses? And what about the setback to our plans with the Lormford Chamber of Commerce? Who's going to bear that cost?""Yeah, Ms. Jefferson, sometimes you have to make sacrifices for the greater good. You can't be so selfish!"Voices rang out from all directions, filling the room with chaos. A cold smile flashed across Hugh's face. Everything was unfolding just as he had planned. Mavis had only two options—step down or apologize alongside Timothy. Either choice would be a devastating blow to her, especially the latter.It might seem like a simple apology, but in reality, it would force her to concede. Once she lost her authority, the board would soon crumble into disarray, and Hugh would make his move then."Ms. Jeffer

    Timothy immediately dialed the number Mavis had given him. It was too late for her to stop him, as a deep male voice had already answered from the other end, greeting them.Even Cedric's expression shifted, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. Everyone in the room had their eyes glued to Timothy, nervous about what nonsense he was about to spout. What came out of his mouth the next moment made Mavis's vision go dark. Timothy, in his usual carefree manner, asked, "Are you the person in charge of Lyson Group?"The person on the other end hesitated for a few seconds before responding, "Yes, who's this?"Mavis shot Timothy a pleading look, silently begging him to hang up the phone. However, Timothy acted like he didn't notice. Instead, he yelled into the phone, "What's with the attitude? Don't try to play games with me. Let me ask you—are you really planning to stop the collaboration between Lyson Group and Jefferson Group? "Here's a word of advice—if you know what's good for

    A man's voice came through the phone."Is this Ms. Jefferson? I'm the representative from Lyson Group in charge of the partnership with your company. I want to sincerely apologize for the earlier decision to suspend our collaboration."Starting now, all collaborations will resume as planned. Furthermore, the Lyson Group will be increasing our investment in this project by an additional one billion dollars.""W-What?"Mavis froze, completely stunned. She was unable to believe what she was hearing. How was that possible? Was she dreaming?Timothy had just insulted the guy, yet he was calling back to apologize. On top of that, they were increasing the investment by an extra billion dollars!The meeting room was dead silent, the voice from the phone echoing in the room. Everyone was in shock.Cedric's face turned a ghastly shade of gray, trembling as he muttered, "This… This can't be real."Timothy allowed an imperceptible smirk to form on his face. "What do you mean it can't be re

    "Mavis, who is this guy?"Shauna looked over Timothy, noting his shabby appearance, her brow furrowing in disgust.Mavis rubbed her forehead, exhaustion and helplessness clear in her expression. "He's my fiancé.""What? Him?"Shauna recoiled as if she'd seen a ghost, taking two steps back. She scanned Timothy from head to toe before practically shouting, "Mavis, are you out of your mind? You haven't broken off the engagement with this guy? And you brought him to the company?"Mavis bit her lip, a bitter smile on her face. She didn't even know how to explain it.Shaking her head, she tried to change the subject. "Shauna, what brings you here today?""Good thing I did come! Otherwise, I wouldn't have known this guy followed you into your office! I'll call security right now to have him thrown out!"Shauna turned to call the guards, her face full of anger.As Mavis's best friend, she had always wanted her to marry into a good family. The moment she found out that Mavis's fiancé c

    Timothy remained silent and enjoyed the show. Cecilia knelt and looked up with a sensuous gaze. She bit her red lip and asked, "Master, do you want me?"Timothy's expression was one of amusement, and his emotions remained inscrutable to Cecilia. She slowly reached out and touched Timothy's belt. As she observed the changes before her, her eyes were filled with shock. She gasped subtly, swallowing hard. The comparison between Leon and Timothy was like night and day.Her cheeks flushed as she looked up at Timothy, her eyes full of astonishment. It wasn't for any reason other than the fact that Timothy was… simply too overwhelming. She had dated several guys and had seen plenty, but none could compare to Timothy. Her hands trembled as she tried to undo his belt. Her throat felt dry, and she licked her lips nervously. She made a few attempts but ultimately failed. A light sheen of sweat formed on her face.Timothy continued to watch her, feeling amused as she knelt in front of him

    "Time to die." A whisper, like the voice of death, echoed in Leon's ear. Just as he was about to speak, Timothy's hand moved in front of him—a simple, light swipe.Leon's body froze instantly. Seconds later, his lifeless body collapsed to the floor. Cecilia looked at Leon's body and let out a hysterical scream. Leon's face was gone—his entire face was gone! Where his face used to be was now a flat, bone-smooth surface, as if it had been cut by a saw. The cut was so clean and smooth that it looked terrifyingly unreal. It was a gruesome sight.Cecilia had never witnessed something so horrifying. After her scream, her voice was caught in her throat as fear consumed her. Her stomach churned, and she couldn't hold back as she vomited. She slid down to the floor, looking disheveled. She looked at Timothy with tears welling up in her eyes. Her face was absolutely pale as she sobbed, shaking like a leaf. "Please… Please spare me… I'm begging you…"Timothy's eyes darkened, a bloodt

    Leon's expression was twisted in anger as he shouted, "Did you think I'm powerless against the likes of you? Raise your hands and get on your knees!"Timothy wasn't the least bit surprised. He stared at Leon with deep, intense eyes. "Put the gun down. I don't like being aimed at."Leon cocked the gun and loaded it with a click. His finger rested on the trigger as he sneered. "You're still acting tough at a time like this. I'll admit that you're gutsy, but you must die here today."Timothy shook his head with a regretful expression. "I told you I don't like being aimed at. Put the gun down. If I'm in a good mood, I might spare your life. But if you don't put it down in three seconds, I'll have no choice but to send you to hell.""Send me to hell? You don't have what it takes! I've been with Blackgeld for years. I've seen it all," Leon responded.Timothy's expression shifted as he asked, "Has someone in Blackgeld been planning to kidnap Mavis Jefferson, the CEO of Jefferson Group, l

    Leon laughed heartily and reached out to grope Cecilia's ample bosom. She let out a soft moan, squeezing her legs together instinctively as arousal traveled up her body. She wrapped herself around Leon like a snake, her eyes seductive as she bit her lip.She whispered, "Leon, I want it again. Come and give it to me."Leon's eyes became bloodshot. "Oh, you little vixen. It seems like you're not satiated yet. I'll make sure you get more than you bargained for today!" He flipped over, positioning himself on top of Cecilia. Just as they were about to enjoy their moment, a knock came from outside. "Hey, open up. Don't be a coward," Timothy called out.Leon shouted mockingly, "Idiot, did you think I'd be stupid enough to just stand where I was and wait for you? You've taken the bait. You're dead meat now!"Outside, Timothy shrugged helplessly and said, "If you open the door now and apologize on your knees, I'll leave your corpse intact. If you don't, things won't end well for you whe

    Cecilia stared in disbelief at the man downstairs. It was like something straight out of a movie, yet it was happening vividly right before her eyes. She had never imagined that in real life, someone could actually take on dozens, or even hundreds of men alone. Timothy demonstrated what it meant to be fiercely skilled. Those thugs wielding machetes and clubs became nothing more than straw men in front of him. Every punch, every kick, every movement of his body became a deadly weapon. No one could get close to him. It was as if he had some kind of sixth sense for dodging attacks. He consistently slipped away just before the weapons could land. Timothy moved effortlessly with a relaxed expression. Every one of his moves was fluid and purposeful. One thug after another fell. They were reduced to nothing more than bouncy balls in the courtyard, as they were sent flying in all directions by Timothy's kicks. With each casual slap or kick, someone would be launched through the air.

    At that moment, Leon was just done having his way with Cecilia in a luxurious villa. Cecilia lay naked on the bed, her face flushed. Her fair, long legs were posed seductively. Leon, breathing heavily, touched Cecilia's smooth bottom and grinned wickedly. "Babe, you've gotten even better. I almost couldn't handle you."Cecilia looked at him with a seductive gaze, tracing circles on his chest with her finger as she said sweetly, "Leon, I have my eye on a new bag recently. It's so pretty. I want it so badly.""If you want it, just buy it. How much is it?"Cecilia's face lit up, and she replied coquettishly, "It's around 80 thousand dollars."Leon, puffing on a cigar, scoffed. "80 thousand? That's nothing."He got up and walked to the safe in the corner of the bedroom. Then, he entered the code. Cecilia looked over and was stunned. The safe was full of cash and gold bars! Her heart raced as she also saw a gun inside. It was the first time in her life she had seen one, and she was

    The store assistant became excited and recounted, "It was a young man, and he just left the store. He didn't dress well and didn't look wealthy. But he came in, barely glanced around, and bought a bracelet. "That bracelet was close to three million dollars, and he bought it right away! We've been in business for several years. This is the first time I've seen someone who keeps such a low profile."Susan was stunned, and Jason was equally shocked. He looked at Susan, swallowed hard, and stammered, "Could it be… Timothy?"Beside him, Susan did her best to suppress the shock she was feeling and asked the store assistant, "Can you describe what he looked like and what he was wearing?"The store assistant described him briefly, and Susan was absolutely flabbergasted. The person she described was indeed Timothy!She felt like she'd just been struck by a bolt of lightning that left her head buzzing. She couldn't believe that Timothy had bought a bracelet that was about three million dol

    Susan had broken up with Timothy and cheated on him back then because he was poor. If Timothy was rich now, it would be a bitter pill to swallow for her. But on the other hand, she felt something for Timothy deep in her heart. It was a kind of feeling that she couldn't quite place her finger on. After all, she had genuinely loved Timothy back then. She ultimately left him because he was dirt poor. If he was rich now, wasn't there a possibility for them to rekindle their relationship?Susan refused to believe that Timothy had no lingering feelings for her at all. Back then, he had been so deeply in love with her. In the present time, it didn't seem like he had a girlfriend or a woman by his side. Even if he did, she was probably nowhere as good as her.Those two conflicting thoughts occupied Susan's mind. As such, a conflicted expression appeared on her beautiful, delicate face. Timothy had no idea what was going through Susan's mind at that moment. If he knew, he would have tol

    Susan bit her lip, and a complicated expression appeared on her face. Since she and Timothy had been in a relationship in the past, meeting again at this moment was somewhat awkward. After a brief silence, Susan bit her lip again and forced a smile at Timothy. "We meet again. Are you shopping at the mall too? What a coincidence."Timothy shrugged. "It's not a pleasant coincidence, though. After all, someone here clearly doesn't welcome my presence."Without a doubt, he was referring to Jason. Jason's expression soured in response. He glared at Timothy and scoffed coldly as he said mockingly, "It's good that you know. Indeed, I don't wish to see your face. Running into you brings bad luck."He looked Timothy up and down before sneering again, remarking, "It's not that I have bad luck—it's this place. How could someone as broke as you even think of coming here?"Susan tugged at Jason's hand and said with a frown, "Jason, we're all classmates here. Is it necessary to be so harsh w
