2024-05-26 18:00:54The Carter Group was going down!
The news recently went viral in Gabbs. It had been a topic of conversation at every business cocktail party lately, including the one Mike was attending today. He smoked at the banquet. He loathed such gatherings, yet no matter how much he disliked them, he had to put up with them. "I have something to do. I'll take my leave now," Mike said and was about to leave. He opened the door of the room and wanted to go out. Before he walked out, he stopped, because he saw a familiar figure in the corridor. He couldn't be sure and called out tentatively, "Mrs. Hammond?" The person didn't respond. The men at the table in the room all stopped what they were doing. Instead, they all turned around and looked in one direction. They thought, 'No way! It can't be Patrick's mate, right?' Mike ignored the group of half-drunk men behind him. He looked at the woman's back. She was limping slightly t

"Patrick! You bastard! You promised me!" Gloria's eyes turned red. The pain in Patrick's eyes almost froze. He focused on doing what he was doing. Suddenly, Gloria's eyes widened in fear. Her body was shivering all over. She felt a sudden chill down her back since her pajamas were lifted. She screamed with all her strength, and her voice was harsh and unpleasant, "Patrick! I hate you!" Patrick's eyes were full of pain. He lowered his head abruptly and kissed her passionately on the scar on the back of her waist. He would rather dig out his heart to fill the missing flesh on the scar. Gloria struggled even harder, but the more she struggled, the more passionately Patrick kissed her. "Patrick! I hate you! Can't you hear me?" She twisted her waist frantically, trying to avoid his endless kiss. Patrick remained silent. What he wanted was not just her body. He wanted her to respond to him. He admitted that he

Mandy, who was in the driver's seat, opened her mouth, only to find that she couldn't utter a word to comfort Gloria. She knew Gloria too well, which was why she felt no need or words to comfort Gloria. The Carter Group had many problems. Maybe they had been overlooked, or maybe Alger didn't think they were serious. Mandy was a little distressed for Gloria, who was in the back seat. When Gloria was busy, she was working in an almost suicidal way. Mandy figured that she was supposed to hate Patrick. After all, he was the one who forced an outgoing woman bit by bit till she was cornered. In all of Gabbs, Patrick was the only person who could drive Gloria into a corner. But now, Mandy felt grateful for Patrick. At least he would come in time to pick Gloria up for lunch and dinner, or Gloria would be too busy to eat at all. Mandy accompanied Gloria to work for several days, and Patrick did not appear during this time. Gloria knew that h

Although Gloria's voice had long been broken, currently, her voice had reached a new limit. Listening to her speak made one feel like hearing two pieces of coarse sandpaper rubbing against each other. Anyone would get a sore throat and an itchy mouth while listening to her. "What do you want?" Stewart frowned and asked in dissatisfaction. Gloria didn't care about his attitude. She casually took the face powders out of her bag, opened it, and started to touch up her makeup as if no one else was around. "Seriously? You are still in the mood to fix your makeup now?" Stewart sneered. In fact, he was already dissatisfied. Gloria turned around and asked him, "Do I look good?" "Don't go too far!" Stewart clenched his fists. "If he sees me, he won't be able to move his eyes away from me, right?" Gloria lowered her head slightly and muttered to herself. Immediately, Stewart felt a lump in his throat and something bitter in his heart.

Gloria looked stiffly at Patrick in her arms who was asking for help. The others froze on the spot, watching the strange scene. "Is that Patrick?" Stewart said skeptically, and everyone present shared the same doubt. Sean's face suddenly darkened, and he said sternly, "Go! Get the pack doctor." The pack doctor came, but Patrick refused to cooperate. He clutched Gloria's clothes with both hands and refused to let go. Thus, all the people present looked at Gloria. "He only listens to you now," Sean said calmly. Under the gazes of everyone in the room, Gloria compromised and coaxed the child-like Patrick. After giving Patrick a checkup, the pack doctor said, "Alpha Patrick seems not to remember the past." Sean was also a medical worker, so he instantly understood what the doctor meant. "Are you saying that he lost his memory?" "No. Alpha Patrick's IQ and cognition are now no different from that of an eight-year-old

Gloria drove back. Sitting in the driver's seat, she laughed at herself for having an illusion. Otherwise, how could she see Patrick? Suddenly, she realized something. Gloria stepped on the brakes, her body leaning forward instinctively. She stared forward. The next moment... She unbuckled her seat belt, got out of the car, and limped forward. "Patrick! Where have you been? Everyone is worried about you. Do you know that?" Gloria shouted at him with her coarse voice. Her chest heaved violently. Patrick seemed frightened and stared at her blankly. "Gloria," Patrick explained, "Hank said that if I behaved, you would come to see me. I waited for a long time, but you didn't come. I miss you so much!" He looked at a loss and was about to cry. "Have I done something wrong?" Gloria's heart skipped a beat. An indescribable pain spread through her heart and she was caught off guard. Before she could say anything, Patrick

The secretary suddenly stood up. "Sorry, Mandy. Our president said that he wanted to meet Miss Carter alone to seek cooperation this time." Gloria, Mandy, and the other representatives from the Carter Group all looked at each other in confusion. What a strange request it was! Mandy was about to say something, but Gloria stopped her. "Take the others out of the meeting room." "But..." Mandy was worried. Gloria looked at Mandy with determination in her eyes. "Mandy, you know how important this cooperation is to me." It was important to her, as well as the Carter Group. "Let's go," Mandy said to others and took the lead to leave. In the conference room, only Gloria was left. In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, a man stood silently. Gloria changed her expression and put on a standard smile. She walked over and stopped three meters away from the man. It was the best social distance. "Hello, Mr. Norman, nice to see you.

Time ticked by. Gloria raised her wrist and glanced at her watch for the third time. Patrick's eyes were fixed on her. The ringing sound of the phone broke the strange atmosphere in the room. Gloria pressed the answer button. She asked, "Have you arrived?" On the phone, she could hear Sean's voice together with hurried footsteps. "I can't go. I'll leave Patrick to you for the time being." Gloria became anxious and called out, "Wait a minute. Leave him to me for the time being? Isn't Hank there?" "Hank is not free. All his men are busy now." Gloria laughed out of anger. "What do you mean by that?" Sean sneered and asked Gloria, "He was shot in Italy. Don't tell me you think it was a coincidence." "What do you mean?" "Stewart will stay in Hammond Group. Hank and I are going to Rome. Think about it. He is not short of bodyguards, but why did he still get shot?" Sean said quickly. Gloria was silent. Although

The bedroom door suddenly opened. Gloria looked up and saw that Patrick had a poker face and returned with a blanket in his hand. Without a word, he threw the blanket onto the floor beside her bed and unrolled it silently. "What are you doing?" She was even more puzzled and asked. Patrick lay down on the floor and turned his back to her deliberately. "You are not allowed to sleep here," Gloria said coldly. Patrick remained silent. Gloria shouted, "Patrick, go out!" Patrick got up from the blanket and turned to yell at her, "Just send me away tomorrow! I don't care! Don't even think about chasing me away tonight!" Gloria didn't expect that he dared to yell at her. "Gloria wants to drive me away. She is sick and no one will take care of her. She is unreasonable!" Patrick shouted again. Gloria was stunned and didn't know what to say. It was the first time that the eight-year-old Patrick had shouted at her. She look

When she initially borrowed $200,000 from Winward, the penalty for breach of contract at six times the amount would be $1.2 million.She couldn't come up with such a large sum of money, so she had no choice but to compromise.Seeing that Luana had become "reasonable," Runa's demeanor became increasingly arrogant as she said, "It's simple. Just treat Mr. Coburn well, and once he returns to Washington, I'll approve your resignation."Luana could barely accept not being allowed to resign, but the idea of serving Calvert was utterly repugnant to her.She immediately objected, "Mr. Coburn may not want me to serve him."Runa's lips curled into a meaningful smile as she replied, "I've looked at that photo several times, and the way he looks at you is far from simple, so Mr. Coburn will definitely want you."Luana wanted to retort, but Runa suddenly turned stern and impatiently said, "Just do as I say."Clearly, Runa believed that Luana and C

Runa's words were quite clear. To marry into wealth, good looks alone were far from enough.One also needed a matching family background, or at the very least, a high level of education.Truly, Runa, who possessed both wisdom and beauty, could insult someone without using any dirty words, yet still precisely strike at the deepest insecurities within one's heart.Luana clenched her hands and said, "Miss Ortega, whether I have thoughts of marrying into wealth or not is completely unrelated to my application for resignation. Even if you are the CEO, you have no right to interfere in my personal affairs, do you?"Runa didn't expect Luana to indirectly mock her for being nosy, and her expression darkened.She replied, "Of course, I can't interfere. I'm just giving you a friendly reminder. If you insist on giving up such a good job opportunity to pursue something that's not yours, and then regret it later, don't come back to Winward crying."Seein

It turned out that half a year ago, the Coburn family had intended to ally with the Moriarty family through marriage.The marriage candidate was Cline's cousin, who was also Gehrmann's sister, named Melissa Moriarty.Melissa was currently studying in Italy and would return to the States to get engaged with Calvert after graduation.Previously, she had deliberately blocked all news related to Calvert, so she was completely unaware of this.Now, seeing this information, she didn't feel much of an emotional stir.She and Albion could never go back to the past, and it didn't matter to her who Calvert married.Luana put down her phone, took some medication for her heart failure as usual, and then set the alarm volume to the maximum before falling into a deep sleep.The alarm rang for a long time before Luana faintly heard it and slowly regained consciousness.She reached for her phone and saw that it was nine in the morning. It wasn

Luana felt as if she had been struck by lightning, rooted to the spot in shock. Cline knew about Albion?"You've called out this name in your sleep, many, many times," he said as if he had long harbored resentment towards this name.He had investigated this person before, but it was as if Albion had been deliberately erased by some mysterious force, leaving no trace to be found, so he had stopped pursuing it.But now, he was suddenly extremely curious about who Albion was, someone she couldn't forget even in her dreams.Luana never expected that she would call out Albion's name in her sleep.Her thoughts immediately drifted back to when she first signed the lover's agreement. At that time, after their sex, Cline would still stay with her until she fell asleep.But it didn't last long. He stopped doing that.She had naively thought it was because Cline despised her.It was only now that she realized it was because she had called

His tone seemed to blame her, but his actions became increasingly distant.Luana understood in her heart that he despised her, but she didn't understand why he was acting this way.Perhaps it was the alcohol affecting his mind, causing him to act impulsively and get close to her.She couldn't figure it out and didn't want to waste her energy trying to understand, so she just replied, "Mr. Moriarty, we've broken up. Isn't it normal for me to act this way?"He blamed her, but it was he who had discarded her like a worn-out shoe. Why should he expect her to remain faithful to him?Upon hearing this, Cline's body became even more rigid, and the cold aura around him intensified. Luana felt the chill to the bone and couldn't stop shivering.She instinctively shrank back, not daring to lift her eyelids, fearing that she might provoke his anger and suffer a beating.When a man reaches the peak of disgust and disdain for you, he often shows no

Luana lowered her eyelashes, avoiding his piercing gaze, and whispered, "I did."Cline's expression momentarily froze, his almond-shaped eyes seeming to ice over, radiating a chilling coldness."Why?" he asked."Because he's handsome and wealthy, perfectly fitting my criteria for marrying into wealth," Luana replied.Cline sneered, "You used the same excuse with me before."Luana looked puzzled and asked blankly, "What?"Cline said, "I've investigated you and Travis. He never touched you. Why did you lie to me?"He had investigated her behind her back?Luana's eyes widened in disbelief.She raised her head and looked straight into his eyes, noticing a mix of complex emotions swirling in his gaze.He... seemed to be waiting for an explanation from her.But she had indeed slept with someone.Although not Calvert, she knew her body was no longer his.Continuing to entangle with him wouldn't chang

The car window slowly lowered, revealing a profile so exquisitely chiseled that it was breathtaking.When Luana recognized the owner of that profile, her heart skipped a beat.She wasn't sure if Cline had come for her, so she didn't dare to linger, reaching for the car door to quickly get inside.However, a cold male voice came from behind, "Get in the car."Luana froze on the spot.She wondered, hadn't he told her never to appear in front of him again?Why was he asking her to get in the car now?Luana looked at the man in the car, whose cold and indifferent eyes were staring at her as if he would strangle her on the spot if she didn't obey.After a brief internal struggle, Luana eventually walked towards the Ferrari.She intended to sit in the back seat, but the door was locked tight and couldn't be opened, with only the passenger door wide open.The intention was clear. He wanted her to sit in the passenger sea

Luana did not respond, simply reaching for her water glass and taking a quiet sip.Seeing her silence, Calvert became even more convinced that she was referring to him.In fact, a hint of doubt was quietly rising in his heart, questioning whether the information he had investigated before was incorrect.After all, he couldn't remember her at all.However, seeing her so vulnerable and helpless last night, he couldn't help but feel worried and even a bit sad.That heart-wrenching feeling was so real that it made him start to ponder whether what she had said before might be true.After hesitating for a moment, he mustered the courage to ask, "Miss Hammond, you once said you were my girlfriend. Is that really true?""No, I lied to you," Luana replied without even lifting her eyelids, flatly denying it.Hearing this answer, Calvert felt a slight sinking in his heart, a sense of loss welling up. He continued, "Then why did you lie to

Just the sight of Cline made Luana's heart race with anxiety, and she dared not even lift her head, her small frame instinctively hiding behind Calvert.This act of hiding only served to enrage further Cline, his gaze towards her becoming even colder.Calvert, however, failed to notice the tension between them and politely extended his hand, greeting, "Mr. Moriarty."Cline barely glanced at the hand extended towards him and coldly remarked, "I have a phobia of germs."His demeanor was the epitome of arrogance and disrespect.Fortunately, Calvert had always been extremely composed and did not feel embarrassed by this. He retracted his hand and responded with a smile, "No problem."Ignoring Calvert's response, Cline's icy eyes turned directly towards Luana, who was hiding behind him."Luana is here too?" he said.Having been called out, Luana could no longer continue to hide.She reluctantly stepped out from behind Calvert
