Heloise set up an electronic synthesized voice and then called all the TV stations, self-published media, newspapers and magazines in the PHOENIXFELL Empire without leaving out."Hello, I'm reporting to your department that Councilman Brady Brook is setting up a sinister superstitious ritual of drawing on ghosts and cursing people at home. If you rush over now, you can catch a live shot, if you're late, your opponents will seize the headlines ahead of you."Heloise curled her lips in satisfaction and swiveled around in the swivel chair, hearing the electronic synthesized voice blaring from the computer.Perfect!After the phone call, Heloise hung up all the calls in a blaze of speed and reopened the surveillance screen, porting the hawthorn water and sipping it leisurely.The media had the keenest sense of smell, even if the call came inexplicably.Five minutes later, the media arrived at the outside of Brook’s house one after another. The group of journalists were hiding in the dark
"Young master." The butler squatted down on the ground to put on his shoes for him, and while putting them on, he said stiffly, "Old master asked me to tell you that he promised not to hook whores any more, so please give him another chance and don't deduct his living expenses please."At that, Reginald kicked him to the ground, with a bad face towards him.Ben watched in silence.The butler, well knowing Reginald's unkind temper, quickly stood up and retreated to the side, lowering his head, not daring to say anything.When he was working in this mansion, he was disappointed at himself having to deal with the old and the young master. After all, he was forced to convey what the old master said.Reginald stood there, a pair of eyes turned a little grayer from anger, looking at him grimly and coldly, almost gritting his teeth, "You tell him: it was my mother who established the Wordsworth's, and if he dares to lead another woman back here again, I'll personally castrate him! ""Yes, ye
Reginald took it as soon as he could and turned it over to see the headline position carrying a large photo of a courtyard with a metaphysical ritual, a man sitting in the center with his eyes closed and his mouth open, seemingly reciting some kind of incantation.[Councilmember Brady Brook's home in the middle of the night, a ghost-burying ritual, which is the most sinister and vicious rite.]"A ghost-burying ritual?"Reginald said coldly."It's all superstition." Ben was not a fan of this kind of ritual and said, "I heard that this rite is extremely insidious, it can knock a spirit down to the blackest layers of purgatory, and after suffering a lot of tortures and sufferings, then cause their souls to be vanished, and the spirits will never be able to go back to life.""The Brook’s wants to beat that spirit to death?"Reginald asked, looking at the newspaper."I contacted a couple of media outlets, and only one reporter said he vaguely seemed to hear the virtuoso who cast the spell
Grace sat on the couch, looking at the pair of father and daughter, her face pale as a sheet, and she said weakly, "Brady, Coral, don't you think it's Heloise's spirit that's haunting us? We're holding a ritual at home. How did we suddenly draw on so much media? It was impossible we had leaked the news out ourselves. Why don't we give some underworld currency to Heloise and ask her to spare us?""We are not going to give any underworld currency to her, unless over my dead body."Coral was getting annoyed and couldn't help but give her mother a blank look when she heard this."Alright, now it is not the time to talk about this, it's time about how to solve the problems."Brady sat there, his finger wearing a big ring tapping on the armrest of the sofa.After thinking about it, he looked at Coral with a grave face, "Coral, now it has to be up to you, your image has always been pleasant before. I'll give you a press conference. Go and cry in front of the public that this is really just a
Heloise picked and chose through the huge closet and finally reluctantly grabbed a creamy white loose shirt to wear as a jacket to protect her from being recognized, also with a pair of sunglasses, and walked out of Hyacinth Garden. She hailed a cab and headed straight to the Friendship Mall.Today was the day she met the silver-haired guy to get her fake ID card.At 10:00 p.m., the Friendship Mall was brilliantly lit and bustling.Elegant music wafted from the café on the sixth floor.A young man with a handsome and unassuming face sat against the floor-to-ceiling glass window, placing milk sugar into his coffee cup in a polite manner and then pushing it in front of the girl sitting opposite him."Well, Coral, all news is a passing fad, and the netizens just kick up a fuss for a while and they will forget it soon."Coral sat lazily in the sofa chair, her reddened eyes looking gratefully at the man in front of her, "Darnell, it's really good you're here with me. I don't know how I wou
"Bang!"The coffee fell from her hand and spilled all over on Darnel and her.Her limited edition long skirt and Darnell's white suit pants were all splashed with coffee stains.Darnell hurriedly stood up, frowned at his stained pants, and looked at Coral with some displeasure, "Hey, what's up?"Coral was still looking outwards, a ghastly pale in her face.Darnell was about to follow her to see what was happening outside, while Coral hurriedly pulled him, apologized, "I'm sorry, Darnell, too many things happened in the past two days, when I got distracted, I am ...... sorry, I'm so sorry."She must prevent Darnell from seeing Heloise.Even though she was already planning on abandoning the backup candidate, she couldn't allow Darnell to reunite with the bitch again.She thought Heloise would never get the man Coral gave up."Forget it, let's go to the restroom and deal with it and I'll have some new clothes brought." Darnell said helplessly."Yeah."Coral answered simply and was led to
She was surprised the bitch hadn't been tortured to death yet.Reluctantly, Coral picked up her cellular phone to make a call and had just put it to her ear when a surprised voice came through, "Heloise?""......"Coral stiffened and turned her head to see Darnell, who had changed into a gray suit, standing nearby and was now staring at Heloise in disbelief, his eyes looking as if they had been hooked, completely unable to see that she was still here.It was Darnell Smith.Heloise thought she had come across another old acquaintance.She indifferently looked at him as she stood there, her face wearing a mask of confusion.Darnell came back to his senses, excitedly walking quickly to her and looking her up and down, "Heloise, where have you been for the last three years? Coral and I have been looking for you for a long time.""Are you looking for me?"Heloise was stunned.Since childhood, Coral didn't want to be known as they were sisters, so they were in the same school but never in t
She had smugness etched in her eyes.Heloise sat there, looking at them calmly, and said lightly, "Lady and Gentleman, I think you've really got the wrong person, I'm not some Heloise you're talking about.""Are you mad at me? Are you angry that I wrenched Darnell away from you? "Coral pressed herself against Darnell in a tender gesture, "Then I'll return Darnell back to you."Upon hearing this, Darnell couldn't help but frown at Coral and gently reprimanded, "What are you babbling about, am I an object? Would you give me back or not to Heloise?"Besides, Heloise hadn't formally responded to his courtship then."But I know you liked Heloise and probably now you still do ...... Didn’t you realize you just saw her eyes so straight?"Coral looked at him, her voice choking up as she spoke, her eyes glistening with tears, pathetic.Her words made Darnell feel guilty, and he was busy softly consoling, "Don't you think it nonsense, now you are my girlfriend."Heloise looked quite disgusted a
"......" Heloise gave him a speechless look. Distracted for a moment, her character on the screen was shot in the head by Reginald, dying a heroic death.Reginald had aimed for this outcome. He turned to look at her, his mischievous gaze wandering up and down. "Strip."Today, he had suddenly proposed a game where for every round lost, she had to remove an article of clothing, with a one-hour time limit.Heloise didn't want to play, but he had persistently pestered her, not allowing her to do anything else until they played for an hour and only then would he let her go to the study to do her own work."......" Heloise straightforwardly took off her shoes, leaving her feet bare on the carpet.This wasn’t the effect he wanted.Reginald glanced at her small, fair feet and reached out to adjust the air conditioning to a higher temperature.The next round began.Heloise focused on the screen, maneuvering the controller with pre
"Suspect what?"Reginald wiped his hands with a hot towel, seeming to ask casually, as if he didn't care."With her abilities, it would be easier for her to make a mark in other circles. Yet she chose to endure hardships in the Legal Affairs Committee, where the network is already established. She’s been there for two months, and although she rose quickly, she's still just an assistant," Benjamin said."On one hand, she's willing to endure these hardships, and on the other hand, she's able to cultivate people under her into prominent figures in various fields in a short period. Do you think she has a grand ambition?"Those in high positions naturally have their sensitivities.Even though he admired Heloise, Benjamin couldn't help but think more deeply.Such a perceptive girl wouldn't do meaningless things; she must have her own calculations. She propels these people to become figures in various fields, and with more experience, they co
Someone passed by and first looked at her, screaming, with eyes that suggested she was crazy. Then, upon seeing the snake, they quickly fled.Why!Why couldn't she get close to Reginald? Why wasn't she the one to receive Reginald's special attention?She couldn't accept this outcome! She couldn't!She sat on the ground, tears quickly welling up, streaming down her face, overwhelmed with despair.…Ever since she had that candid conversation with Reginald on the football field, Heloise had become increasingly focused on her work in the Legal Affairs Committee.Heloise tackled each task with enthusiasm, consistently completing them with excellence. During this time, some colleagues tried to sabotage her, but she cleverly deflected their attempts. Similarly, higher-ups tested her abilities, but she passed each challenge with flying colors.Soon enough, everyone in the Legal Affairs Committee knew of her. Her path to promoti
Just as she finished typing, Heloise was suddenly embraced from behind by a pair of strong arms. Reginald leaned in from behind, his thin lips touching her ear, tracing along the contours of her earlobe, before suddenly taking it into his mouth and lightly licking it with the tip of his tongue.Heloise was tingling all over from his actions, wanting to break free but held tightly by him.Reginald's kisses quickly trailed over her neck and face, finally locking onto her lips with a strong possessiveness, probing deep, intimate, and ambiguous.He pressed his forehead against hers and hoarsely said, "Let me think."Heloise looked at him somewhat puzzled. What did he mean by letting him think? What was he thinking about?Perhaps because he had just showered, his eyes appeared unusually deep and moist under the light.It reminded her of the time at BlueWolf Mountain when a dolphin, accidentally washed ashore by the sea, lay there barely breathing
His voice carried a bewildering power, like a subtle electric current piercing through one's eardrums and directly into the heart.Heloise sat there, captivated by his voice, intimidated by his gaze, her mind momentarily blank.He said he would ensure all her affairs were smooth and worry-free for life. What a touching statement.Growing up, she had never received such a weighty promise.Heloise admitted to herself that she had been captivated. A hot wind passed before her eyes as she stared fixedly at Reginald in front of her.Behind him, the twilight light burst forth with vivid colors, suddenly breaking through."What, speechless from being moved?" Reginald looked at her, chuckling softly.Heloise looked at him. If she followed his temperament, she should express gratitude for being moved, or at least say thank you.But suddenly, she felt that continuing this way was not right."Thank you, Reginald," Heloise looked at
Reginald stood up from the ground, delivering heartless words.Tricia sat on the ground, her heart wrenched by his words.He couldn't produce any evidence to prove that she intentionally incited those people to target Heloise. Yet, despite this, he almost killed her for Heloise. She had risked her life for him!"Brother, has she ever saved you?" Tears streamed down her face as she asked softly.Reginald turned, buttoning his cuff and reaching for the watch on the table. His movement paused at her words before he put on the watch."How much has she sacrificed for you? Why is she the only one for you?" Tricia questioned as she watched his back.The only one for you.Reginald had never thought of those four words. To him, he was simply interested in Heloise. Every aspect of her fit his taste.Her presence filled the loneliness he had endured for over a decade. Was she really the only one for him?If it were someone else...
"Brother, wait for me." Tricia glanced at Heloise and softly called out, catching up to Reginald and brushing his arm with her finger.Reginald glanced at her sideways but didn't stop, continuing forward. Tricia walked alongside him.Heloise stood still, quietly watching the backs of the two, feeling a faint sense of strangeness pass through her heart. Her expression remained calm, showing little emotion.Is this going to be alright? It really caught her off guard.She thought that Tricia chasing after Reginald would take as long as rebuilding the slums.Once Reginald left, the guards followed suit, leaving the office to them.Heloise withdrew her gaze, carrying the documents into the office and sitting at her desk, ready to work. She tried to start her computer, but it showed a black screen.Heloise was annoyed. She clicked the mouse a couple of times, and large blocky characters began to flash on the screen."Miss me?"
"No."Reginald held her tightly.Heloise gritted her teeth and shrunk her body, slipping out from his arms.Reginald attempted to catch her, but failed. Irritated, he reached for her, pulling her towards him and kissing her forcefully. "If you don't want to sleep, then don't sleep. Let's continue playing."Heloise still wanted to break free, but Reginald pulled her back onto the bed and started fooling around with her.…In the office, colleagues remembered her heroic act of catching snakes and, understandingly, ceased their antagonism. This made Heloise's internship path particularly smooth.Her documents were impeccable, and there wasn't a single mistake in the legal texts she handled, which left her superiors very satisfied."This document contains the latest perfected laws for the slums. Once you've organized and verified it, we can make it public."The leader handed her a document.Heloise accepted it,
“Don't worry, I won't engage in such petty behaviors.”Another person expressed their stance to Heloise.“You saved us today. I'll keep an eye out for you from now on, making sure Adam and the others don't dare to act out again,” said several people around Heloise.“…”What's going on with these people? Weren't they trying to curry favor with her? How did they suddenly change sides in such a short time?Tricia stood there, her expression grim.Heloise sat calmly, raising her eyes to Tricia and giving a nonchalant “Oh.”Everyone followed her gaze to Tricia, and there was a moment of stiffness. This incident was somewhat related to Tricia, but she hadn't instructed them to go after Heloise.The atmosphere felt strangely tense.Soon, someone laughed nervously. “Tricia, you're back! You were lucky you weren't here earlier. Suddenly, the office was filled with snake
