Upon hearing Alex's words, I suddenly realized I hadn't gone on social media while I was enjoying my vacation as I didn't want it to affect my mood.I took out my phone, but Alex quickly stopped me and said, "Ms. Jones, you won't be the CEO after tonight, so could you please approve my resignation l
The dress Nicholas had prepared for me wasn't inside the room.The hotel collaborated with over 200 brands, and the first floor was filled with different luxury shops. But when the butler brought me over, there wasn't a single person in sight."You can take your time to look around the place. Mr. Ha
Nicholas froze as the intense fire in his eyes slowly faded. With a wave of his hands, all of the attendants around us immediately left the luxurious room, leaving the two of us alone.Once he saw me sign the papers, Nicholas stood up and turned me around to face him. He looked at me with a dark gaz
Nicholas consoled me by gently patting my back. "What's wrong? Are you touched by my confession?"I sniffled and said, "Yes. I'm a little touched.""Did you think I would come back in advance to prepare all of this for you if I didn't? You're underestimating me. I could have done all of this through
My hands trembled as I took out my phone and looked for the photos of him sleeping with Claudia on our bed. I slammed my phone on the table before him and asked, "Or do you have the right to do so because you let her sleep in our bedroom on our bed!"Nicholas probably could not understand my sudden
Nicholas' white T-shirt was immediately stained red with blood. Claudia would alternate between crying apologetically and glaring at me with hatred. She had also begun laughing creepily.Upon hearing the ruckus, the attendants immediately rushed in and apologized. But if I hadn't asked them all to l
I seemed to have a connection with hospitals. Every time I felt like my heart had grown cold, the long hard hospital chairs would always accompany me.In the middle of the night, the sound of rushed footsteps immediately broke the peaceful silence within the hospital. It seemed that the Hawk family
Now, all of that was gone. But who could I blame for it all?At the end of the day, was I the one who had destroyed the relationship between the Hawk family? Or was Claudia the one who had ruined my marriage with Nicholas?Would a normal family have a sister who was obsessed with possessing their ow
The next day, I returned to Radiant City, hoping to see him one last time. To my surprise, I was turned away at the entrance.A small note was handed to me by a police officer. On it were Nicholas' strong, determined words."Wait for me to atone for my sins. Wait for me to come to you."Staring at t
"All the mistakes began with me, so today, I will end them."Because of my actions, those who deserved punishment were able to evade justice for four long years. I am willing to cooperate with the police investigation, provide the necessary evidence, and take full legal responsibility for any past a
After hanging up the call, I immediately searched online.Screenshots of Nicholas being taken away were plastered across numerous articles by the tabloids. And the top four trending topics were all about him."Hawk Corporation CEO Publicly Confesses Love""Hawk Corporation CEO Taken Away for Investi
I suddenly received a call from Douglas. He asked when I would need Tabitha's passport back, as it was still with him. I couldn't help but feel that once a person wakes up to the truth, everything starts to fall into place as it was meant to."Send it to Coral Villa," I said, then hung up and went t
In the following days, my schedule was always tightly arranged by Nicholas.He subtly hinted and asked whether I'd consider remarrying him, saying it might make the adoption process for Cory easier. However, I could handle the matter myself, even if it was more troublesome.Rather than discussing re
It wasn't until Leo was wheeled out of the operating room that I finally saw Yasmine and Nicholas in the ward.The two of them exchanged a silent glance when they saw me and turned away in unison, as if by mutual agreement.I couldn't help but feel that the tension between them had somehow lessened.
Nicholas' entire body trembled violently, his mouth opening and closing for a long time without being able to utter a single word."My father… wasn't it because of my mother…""It was your mother who ordered it, and Claudia carried it out!"Nicholas still couldn't comprehend, his voice hollow and di
Nicholas started trembling uncontrollably, anger surging through him almost instantly, consuming every fiber of his being.Although he was aware that there were still some unresolved misunderstandings between him and me, she had already said she didn't mind. He had thought it wasn't something import
The ambulance arrived swiftly, its flashing red warning lights casting Yasmine's pale face in an even starker hue.She got into the ambulance with Leo, while Nicholas and I drove together to the hospital.Nicholas sighed regretfully, "I arranged everything as quickly as I could, but I was still a bi
