“Don’t call me your aunt, you cruel and heartless thing!” Hayley shouted at him in a fit of rage. Dayton knew that he would get scolded by her before coming in, so his expression remained unchanged. “Aunt, don’t get emotional. You should rest well and let your wounds heal.” “Don’t tell me such pretentious words! Do you know how pitiful Tia is right now? How can you be so harsh?” Hayley really wanted to cut his heart out and see if it was made of ice. “I’ve hired the best doctors to treat her.” He said in a tone that made it seem like he had shown Tia a huge act of mercy. “The best doctors?” Hayley suddenly burst out into laughter. “Hehe… The best doctors are useless. She has burns everywhere. She’d rather die than live in her current state...” “Aunt, you were the one who wanted to rescue her…” Dayton said coldly. Hayley washed away the pain in her heart and raised her head to look at him. “Do you mean that I shouldn’t have rescued her? If it weren’t for me, she would’v
Quincy walked into the president’s office with her assistant. This place once belonged to the Lanes. Back then, she was still the young miss of the Lane family. Her father was managing this company. She would come over to visit from time to time. She even told her father that she would help him manage the company in the future. Her father pitied her for having to manage such a huge corporation as a woman. He wanted to help her look for a husband who knew how to manage the company. That way, she would not lead such a tough life. Nobody would have expected everything that their family owned to be taken over by that heartless bastard, Dayton Night, before her father managed to help her find a man like that or before she managed to take over the corporation from her father. This office looked different from what she remembered in the past. After Dayton took over the company, it became his office. The dark-themed design of the office suited him well. However, she was angry
A burst of energy filled Quincy’s body as she reflexively flung his hand off. Perhaps she hit him with too much force, or perhaps he had deliberately hung the towel loosely around his hips. When she flung his hand off, she removed the towel around his lower body as well! The air between them instantly froze.Quincy stared at his lower body and returned to her senses after a while. She closed her eyes at once! Damn it, what an eyesore! “You must be doing this on purpose!” She was angry and abashed at the same time. Her face heated up at once.Dayton smiled innocently and asked, “How can you blame me when you were the one who removed my towel?”“Put on your clothes at once!” She continued closing her eyes. However, her mind was full of the image she saw just now.He chuckled lightly and asked, “Why are you being shy? We’re husband and wife. We have a son as well. Haven’t you seen my body a long time ago?”Quincy did not open her eyes. She did not know if he was wearing clothe
Quincy kept staring at the document. The spark of anger within her heart slowly grew into a gigantic blaze. “Dayton Night, you did this on purpose, right?” She finally flew into a rage before him.It was no wonder he did not react toward anything that she did to him. He even let her intercept all of his projects and force him toward the brink of despair step by step. Dayton shrugged with an innocent expression on his face. “I told you from the very start that I’ll give you everything you want. Am I not doing as you wish right now?” “Why didn’t you tell me that I own part of the company?” “I told you that we’re still husband and wife. Since we’re a married couple, we own the same properties.” After a pause, he added, “Besides, this company belonged to both of us ever since we got married. Did you know nothing about it?” Naturally, Quincy would not have thought of something like that. Back then, he scammed her into marrying him after she lost her memories. She thought th
The company’s loss was equivalent to these directors’ loss. They were already dissatisfied with Dayton’s performance. If he was still reluctant to improve the company’s operations, they would consider jointly voting him off the board. “Something huge is about to happen to the company, but it isn’t a bad thing.” He glanced at his secretary who was standing behind him and signaled for her to open the door of the conference room. After the door opened, Quincy walked in. “Miss Quincy?!” someone let out a hushed exclamation. Few of the old directors present in the meeting were her father’s good friends. Naturally, she was not a stranger to them. Ever since she married Dayton, these old directors could not say much to Dayton. After that, they heard that she had gone missing. Regardless of how much they pitied her family, they could not do much about it. She was back now. The old directors did not know if they should be happy or worried. Quincy walked into the room a
Dayton was overly calm. He allowed Quincy to become the company’s chairwoman and he was not angry when she fired him, the president, right away! The board of directors was waiting for him to say something. However, Dayton looked at Quincy and replied to them, “Since this is the new chairwoman’s decision, I’ll accept her arrangement.” His words made the entire conference room, which had quietened down, burst out into noise once again. “I think both of them have agreed on this early on. We should accept it. Our opinions aren’t important.” “They aren’t taking us old directors seriously at all…” “Never mind, this is their company. We don’t have a say in this.” “I think that we’re the ones who should leave.” Of course, the board of directors could not accept the fact that Quincy had become the chairwoman as soon as she entered the company. She even planned to manage the company by becoming the president. Quincy was taken aback by how easily Dayton was conceding to her
“Don’t even mention our son. It’s torture for him to live with you.” She got angry at him when she thought about her son’s autistic presentations.“You can’t blame me for that. He lacked motherly love since young. Naturally, he’d be different from other children.”Quincy sneered and questioned, “In other words, you’re blaming me for how he turned out?” “Yes, you hold the main responsibility for this.” Quincy did not want to argue with him. He had always been shameless and stubborn. “Terry, come in,” she called him in. Terry pushed the door open and walked in. He took out a shotgun from his pocket and aimed it at Dayton when he saw her being trapped in his arms. “Let go of the young miss.” Dayton simply glanced at the muzzle of the gun, which was aimed at him, without paying it any mind. He showed no intentions to let go of Quincy as well. After all, he occasionally used guns as well. “Terry left with you. It’s no wonder I couldn’t find him for such a long time.”
“Young Master, are you giving up just like that? The company belongs to you,” his subordinate, Johnny, said in an indignant tone. Dayton turned his gaze away from the entrance of the company after hearing what he said. He coldly looked in the direction of the passenger seat and asked, “Since when do you have the right to talk about my affairs?” “I’m just trying to stand up for you. Young Madam just came back… How can she be so discourteous toward you?” Johnny was infuriated at the way Quincy was doing things. At the same time, he could not understand it. Young Master never conceded to anyone. He was always the one bullying others. Nobody dared to treat him this way. However, he was letting Young Madam do as she wished now… Dayton’s expression stiffened. Suddenly, he coughed. It only got more and more intense. He took out his handkerchief and covered his mouth, but he could still feel the bitter taste of blood surging from his chest to his throat. “Young Master, are you i
