The two words said by the police scared Jean and diminished his arrogance. The food in his hand fell back onto his plate.He fumbled about and asked Nina, "Tyrone is dead?”“You injured him so badly. Even the glass was smashed into his head. What did you think would happen?” Nina got mad when she saw Jean’s terrified expression. She had never asked for him to be rich. Actually, as long as he took things seriously, he would not have a problem earning enough for his living expenses. However, he had disappointed her. "What's wrong? Are you scared now? Why didn't you think of the consequences when you smashed his head so forcefully back then?"Suddenly, Jean's eyes became red. Tyrone was dead. Even if he was willing to pay the compensation, he would not be able to escape from the law…"It wasn’t my intention to hit him so hard. It was Marie. She kept inciting me.” Jean wanted to push all the blame on Marie.Nina got even angrier when she saw Jean's childish behavior. He even mentioned
Nina's eyes flashed with disappointment.In her eyes, Jean was her son but she was not her daughter…"Whether or not I'm lying to you, you’ll soon know the truth. In the afternoon, ask the nurse to push you to the hospital’s detention ward. That’s when you’ll know whether or not I'm lying to you." Nina spun around and left the ward after speaking.Anna's cursing could be heard from behind. Nina was not willing to listen and was not bothered by it.From childhood all the way to adulthood, she had only ever held a place in Anna’s heart when Jean was still doing alright. When Jean started walking a crooked path, her status in Anna’s eyes starting falling as well. She could not understand. She had given everything she had to Jean, including the chance to further her studies.He ultimately failed to become a good person, yet Anna pushed all the blame on Nina. 'Why is this happening to me? Is it because I'm not a son?'Nina felt her limbs weaken. She sat on the long bench along the
"The girlfriend of Mr. Mallory from Mallory Corporation drives such a shabby car? Don’t try to fool me.” The man raised his finger and pointed at Marie, warning her."Don't worry, I’m not fooling you. That woman is very ordinary, but she lives a very good life. Percy has already announced their relationship during a press conference. Don’t worry about anything else. You’ll definitely get money out of her.” As Marie spoke, she was inwardly feeling jealous. ‘With just Nina’s mediocre looks, she was able to make Percy fall so hard for her.'I wonder if it’s because she learned how to seduce men from Bianca that she has the skills to get her hands on such a wealthy guy.’"Alright. Let me show her the list," the man said and left the office.Nina was still standing outside the entrance.The man came to the entrance and passed the list to her. "This is the list I prepared yesterday. The first three pages list down the property damage after your brother fought with others. The last three
"So, you don't have an appointment. Security, please get this guy out of here. If he still shows up here after this, just continue to chase him out.” Tina was much harsher than Luca."Understood." A security guard at the side had seen how Enoch was pestering Luca and was also prepared to make a move. However, since Luca had not given any orders, he did not dare to take any action as it was possible they could be a couple who was arguing. After all, he did not dare to offend Luca. Enoch took a step back when he saw the security guard walking toward him. He looked at Luca and said, "Luca, don’t you dare take things too far. If it wasn’t for Mr. Norman, I wouldn’t even have my eyes on you!”Luca's face was scarlet as she was mad at what Enoch said. If it were not for the crowd watching them, perhaps she would have stepped forward and taught this shameless man a lesson."You're just frustrated because you can't get her. Dr. Craw won’t ever like you. Even if you get tons of big shots
Tina felt frustrated listening to Zoey's nagging and reminded her, saying, "Ms. Davis, Dr. Craw is your superior."Zoey was dumbfounded. It was because Tina was always easy to talk to that Zoey decided to get insider news from her."Uhh, Tina…" Zoey wanted to explain."As an employee, if you go around looking to get gossip about your superior, you’ll only cause others to be dissatisfied with you. It’s not like you’re a newbie who had just entered the workforce either, so you should already know this,” Tina said. In the past, Zoey was never the type to do things without thinking twice. It was probably because she mingled too much with Jenni and turned out like this. "I'm sorry for being a busybody, Tina." After being lectured, Zoey’s back had started breaking out in a cold sweat.The waiter came over while carrying meal sets that had been wrapped up for takeaway. Tina took hers, looked at Zoey, and reminded her again. "Don't ever be used by others without you realizing it.""Got
"Who arranged the blind date?" Luke asked again.Tina shook her head. "Dr. Craw never mentioned it, but I heard it's a senior she respects a lot. Hence, when the blind date was arranged for her, she had no choice but to attend. It was just that she never expected to get involved with such an annoying man.” Luke's eyes became gloomy. "So you knew about her going on a blind date a long time ago?” "Yes, but Dr. Craw said that she doesn't have any feelings for that guy. That’s why I didn't report it to you. I'm sorry, Mr. Crawford. It's my fault." Tina lowered her head and obediently admitted that it was her fault.Luke had mentioned earlier that she must always take note of everything related to Luca and report back to him instantly if there was anything.Tina just thought that since Luca had no feelings for that man, she did not need to report it to Luke. After all, she did not want his emotions to be affected. However, they were both affected by this matter in the end. 'I didn'
Luca suddenly felt uneasy.She had wanted to keep the blind date a secret. However, the possibility of Luke knowing about it made her uneasy.Luca picked up her phone and sent Tina a message: [Tina, do you know when Mr. Crawford returned?][I'm not too sure about that. After I was done buying lunch, Mr. Crawford was already there sitting in the office. As for when he returned, I think it's best if you ask Mr. Doyle.] Tina did not mention a word about Luke summoning her to question the incident.Even though she thought that Luca was a good person, it was still because of Luke's order that she got close to Luca. Hence, she was not willing to reveal too much, lest Luca noticed something off and Tina lost a friend. [Alright, got it.] Luca placed her phone down. She did not ask Jason.She could only ask Tina about Luke’s issue as Jason was Luke's trustworthy assistant. There might be a chance that Jason would inform Luke about her inquiries. She felt puzzled.After all, even thoug
After keeping all the documents, Luca took the laptop and walked toward the elevator.There were a few high-ranking executives behind her, and she heard them whispering. They were all trying to guess the reason behind Luke’s foul mood.“Perhaps his wife is flirting with another guy overseas and that’s the reason Mr. Crawford has such a terrible mood,” said one of the executives.“I don’t think so. Didn’t they say that their relationship worsened after she lost her memory? Regardless of how much trouble she causes, it shouldn't affect Mr. Crawford’s mood.”“That’s hard to say. According to past experience. not many can make Mr. Crawford this unhappy. Even if our proposal is terrible, he’ll just put on a dark expression and point it out. This time, he unleashed his domineering aura.” Luca could not help but lower her eyes when she heard their conversation.They were not wrong. No matter how dissatisfied Luke was with their work in the past, he would not behave like today…When th
