"You… I…" Philip regretted the slap as soon as he realized what he had done. "Sapphi…"Sapphire's lips trembled as she cupped her face and straightened up. Tears streamed down her face as she stared into his soul. "Grandpa, you… you hit me!""Sapphi, I…" Philip was filled with regret. He'd doted on
Hendrick's grip on the doorknob tightened. Hatred filled his eyes, but he suppressed his emotions."What do you want? Are you here to make fun of me?" Sapphire's chest heaved with rage. She didn't look the slightest bit guilty about injuring Hendrick.He pursed his lips. It was hard to read his emot
Soon, Hendrick received a call from Roxy. He accepted her call and explained everything to her. …Maisie noticed that James and Giselle had been gone longer than expected. Similarly, Juliette was nowhere to be found either. While walking around outside the hospital with Elio and June, she took her
"Mais, are you going to be this heartless?"Maisie took a deep breath. She knew Roxy was reasonable, but her judgment was easily clouded by emotions, especially regarding family. After all, Roxy was an elder. So Maisie couldn't be too harsh. She spoke gently, "Grandma, it's not that I'm being heart
Maisie pursed her lips. Seeing her bringing Elio and June over, James put out the cigarette and looked at her solemnly. "Is everything done?" Maisie nodded. "Yes." "Shall I take you back?" "Send Elio and June back first, I need to make a trip to Aether." She planned to go to the company earlier b
Fiona nodded and looked into Maisie's eyes confidently. "It's my duty." "Since Mr. Hart likes coffee, let's prepare some high-quality coffee beans as a gift," Maisie suggested. "You can rest assured, I've prepared that." Maisie nodded in approval. "Also, here is the list of employees to be laid
"She ran away?" Philip immediately turned to Hendrick and questioned him, "That's right, wasn't it your responsibility to watch over her? How did she manage to escape?"Hendrick lowered his head and said, "She was behind me when boarding the plane. But when I turned around the next moment, she was g
Maisie's eyes flickered. Someone was after Juliette? She probably hadn't informed Sebastian that she had come to the capital on her own. Now, it's likely that he had come after her. Since Juliette wasn't familiar with the capital, her first thought must have been to look for Maisie. Naturally, Seba
After leaving the Garrison residence, Andrew and Maisie headed home. Maisie couldn't help but smirk when she noticed Andrew trailing behind her with a mournful expression. She turned to him and asked, "What's wrong with you?""Are you angry?" Andrew inquired. Suppressing a smile, Maisie responded,
Maisie pressed her lips together and added, "Indeed, Mr. Garrison, we've caused enough trouble for your family. We'll take our leave now." With apologies off the table and Andrew's attendance at the event with Rose out of the question, further negotiation was now futile. Maisie did not attempt to p
"Shut up," Edmund muttered, wondering how he ended up with such a foolish daughter.Although Hendrick and Maisie were both vying for the shares, Maisie seemed to have the upper hand. Selling the shares to her now could earn them some goodwill from Andrew in the future. But Rose wasn't considering an
Valerie couldn't help but notice her daughter's infatuation and sighed inwardly. "Have you forgotten he's already married?""What's the big deal?" Rose shrugged.Valerie gently tapped Rose's forehead and said firmly, "Rose, let's be realistic here. It's fine to have feelings for someone, but he's al
Sapphire stood frozen at the doorway, covering her mouth in shock. She realized that she had been caught red-handed. She feared Hendrick's wrath if he discovered the shares were in her possession.Sapphire's eyes darted around anxiously. All she could think of was to hide until the shareholder meeti
Wrapped in a sleek black coat, Andrew approached, exuding a dignified and icy demeanor. A faint smile graced his handsome face as he held his phone to his ear, staring at her. Maisie was momentarily taken aback and blinked in surprise. "Andrew, is that really you?" His presence caught her off guar
Maisie looked at Sapphire, who was flaunting her dominance, and simply pursed her lips. "Oh," she replied calmly, not wanting to engage further.However, Sapphire persisted. She tried to stop Maisie. "You won't find any useful information here with Grandma. Just a friendly reminder to save your ene
"Get out." Andrew's voice was cold and unforgiving."Sir, what did I do wrong?" Fiona pleaded for an answer, but Andrew merely shot her a cold glance, unwilling to entertain further discussion.Fiona wasn't ready to let it go. She couldn't simply accept being dismissed. After all, she had compromise
Maisie returned to the villa with Elio and June and left James to keep them company at home. Initially, James objected. Andrew had instructed him to protect Maisie, and he feared for her safety if she ventured out alone. However, Maisie insisted, and she eventually departed with Gilman and the othe
