Jayden could clearly hear the anger in Issac's voice even through the phone. It was so deafening that he instinctively moved the phone away from his ear. He felt like Issac would be here any second."Do you hear me? Hurry up and bring Carly to me," Issac said.While waiting for Jayden to respond, Issac added loudly, "She must come today no matter what!""Answer me!" Issac shouted again."I heard you. I'll call her right now..." Jayden quickly hung up the phone, afraid that Issac's anger would spread to him.The call had been disconnected when Issac was about to say a few more words.He couldn't help but mutter to himself, where did these kids learn such a bad habit of hanging up on people like that..."Mr. Turner, you're so efficient. We really appreciate it," Daniel said, feeling quite satisfied with Issac's firm attitude just now. Why didn't he just do this earlier? It would have saved him from tangling with Issac for so long! Daniel bent down to pull out a chair for I
Looking at Natasha's sincere eyes, Austin didn't really believe her. Natasha always said there was nothing wrong whenever he asked her about this...If there really wasn't anything wrong, how could Carly lock her in the changing room?He held Natasha's hand and spoke leisurely, "Natty, even if Grandpa dies, you still have your dad, your uncle, and the others by your side. Anyway, there will always be someone in the Sullivan family to support you."You just need to live your life freely and don't worry about anything else."As long as he's alive, he would not let Natasha suffer the slightest injustice.Listening to Austin's words, Natasha quickly shook her head. "Grandpa, don't say that. You're definitely going to live a long life."Hopefully...Austin smiled and shook his head gently. "I don't hope to live that long. I just want to make sure my family is safe and sound..."...After hanging up the phone, a bodyguard promptly handed Jayden his half-smoked cigarette. "Mr. Turner
Carly couldn't help but curl her lips when she heard Jayden's words. "You're always surrounded by a hundred bodyguards, not even a fly can get past them, there won't be anything happening to you."Anyone in this world could play the victim but not Jayden. The bodyguards around Jayden were all strong. Normally, they wouldn't even let someone get close to Jayden.On the other end of the phone, Jayden heard Carly complaining about him. He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and tutted, "Hey, language... Is that your reason for not caring about your brother?"Carly could imagine Jayden's expression when he said that through the screen.If she were next to him, she would probably get her head lightly rubbed and get her lesson...She chose to ignore him. She bent down, gently touched Natalie's hand, and spoke with concern, "Just tell me whatever you need. I'll bring it to you…"She didn't have many friends in Topola. Those young ladies in Topola were too scheming and always up to some
Carly froze as a hint of surprise appeared on her face. "Grandpa is looking for me? And he wants me to go... to the Sullivan Villa?"Why go to the Sullivan family? I'm not close with them.""How would I know the reason he's calling you to the Sullivan family? All you need to do is follow his order..."If you don't go, I'll be in trouble," Jayden said as he placed his phone on the table before casually picking up a cigarette from the other side of the table.One of the bodyguards immediately stepped forward, holding the lighter to his lips, gently igniting the cigarette. "Judging by Grandpa's tone, it seems like something urgent. You better leave now. If you don't have a car, I can pick you up and take you to the Sullivan Villa," Jayden said.There was silence in response. "Did you hear me?" Jayden raised an eyebrow and asked again.Carly didn't hear Jayden's voice. She stood by Natalie's bedside and remained unmoved, feeling a sense of unease for some reason.Meanwhile, Nata
Natasha was listening attentively as Austin chattered in her ear. He never seemed to stop talking... Natasha smiled gently as she listened.She accidentally looked up and saw a thin figure outside the door.Natasha was puzzled. Could that figure be Carly?She couldn't help but squint slightly, carefully examining the newcomer.Carly, with her long black hair and wearing a khaki coat, cautiously stepped into the living room to make sure that she came to the right place.She even kept stepping backward, trying to get a clear view of the door plaque to confirm if she had come to the right place.Carly repeatedly confirmed in her mind, but something felt off. Natasha couldn't possibly be sitting in there. Wasn't she supposed to be in the hospital? She heard Natasha suddenly had a fever at the medical conference... She didn't know how serious it was. Regardless, she shouldn't be here. After all, this place was the Sullivan Villa.Natasha watched Carly's series of movements
Issac, who had been dealing with the major families in Topola for so many years was aware of people's character? Austin might be smiling brightly, but the more radiant the smile, the more malicious thoughts might be hidden behind it.Carly was still young and didn't understand these intricacies, but Issac was of a certain age and definitely knew it."No need, it's more sincere to apologize standing up. Come on, Carly, apologize to Ms. Sullivan." Issac patted Carly's shoulder, indicating for her to approach Natasha.Upon hearing this, Carly was a bit stunned.What?Apologize?She didn't understand Issac's words.Why did he mention Ms. Sullivan? Natasha was Ms. Sullivan? How come she never knew there was such a person in the Sullivan family?Someone with Natasha's character couldn't possibly be Ms. Sullivan."Grandpa, you must be mistaken. She's not Ms. Sullivan at all..." Carly said.Before she could finish her sentence, Issac stopped her."What are you saying? This is the
As Carly spoke, she moved forward, her outstretched fingers almost poking Natasha's face. Natasha, upon being scolded by Carly, retreated half a step, pursing her lips.Hearing Carly's words, Austin's brows furrowed, and he was ready to call the bodyguards if Carly took another step forward."Can't you use more sophisticated methods? This one is too lowly.""Who knows if you locked yourself in the changing room to frame others?" Carly felt that since Natasha could covet someone else's boyfriend, she must be capable of other dirty deeds as well."I'm telling you today. I can't apologize for baseless accusations." Carly became more and more excited as she spoke, and the distance between the two quickly narrowed down.Austin couldn't bear to watch any longer. He immediately waved his hand, and the bodyguards, getting the signal, acted immediately. One of them put his hand on Carly's shoulder and pulled her back."What are you doing?"Issac, who was also indulgent toward Carly, coul
She couldn’t explain. Because when she took Natasha to that changing room, she did have some evil thoughts in her mind. But she didn’t act on them at all and had never put her thoughts into practice…However, if she were to explain this, Natasha would definitely not believe it. Not only would Natasha not believe it, but Sulivans wouldn’t believe it either.Who would believe that she took Natasha to a secluded changing room with evil intentions, only to do nothing in the end?"You're not saying anything?" Natasha seemed to have lost her patience.She crossed her slender arms and coldly scrutinized Carly. Her gaze looked as if she was passing judgment. It seemed to contain a hidden coldness."Then I'll ask another question. Did you deliberately spill the wine on me?"Carly pursed her lips. The gazes of everyone around were all focused on her, waiting only for her answer."You're not going to answer this question either?"Natasha tapped the ground with her feet, one tap after ano
