The old eyes, blinking and emitting light, did not leave her face.Ashley's eyelids drooped, the old man in front of her was indeed worthy of being a legend in the business world, she smiled slightly, slowly raising her eyes: "You are truly the ginger that gets spicier as you age, compared to that year, it is indeed so. Your heart and methods are extremely vicious."Ashley was not someone who could be defeated by anyone. Mr. Elise wanted to humiliate her, could it be like that?Mr. Elise saw that he not only failed to attack her but also made the girl counterattack, the coldness in his old eyes became even more intense, and the corners of his lips coldly pressed down: "You are as hateful as your deceased grandfather."Ashley looked deeply at that old man... it turned out that this old man hated her deceased grandfather so much.She lowered her eyes, deep in her eyes there was an incomprehensible trace."Tonight, you told me to come here, do you want to talk about family matters with m
She looked at the box on the table, this old man's purpose was to probe her.She almost bet everything three years ago, madly running away from Milan.This old man knows how to read other people's psychology. Three years ago, she threw away everything and ran away. Today, this old man deliberately put forward such a generous condition to let her leave. This should be something she would dream of having.If Milan had a problem, then she could leave without thinking about it.On the contrary, once she chose to accept the condition that Mr. Elise gave, leaving at night, then it proved that… Milan had something happen.Because, only when she was no longer under Milan's control, could she leave without any fear.Otherwise, as long as Milan was still alive and well, she would have no way to leave.Ever since Ashley was stopped by Christian, she had thought that something would happen tonight. Until she entered Elise's house and saw Mr. Elise, she was still speculating, but until the box was
"What reason could I have, why are you suspicious? Ashley, are your thoughts always this heavy?""Really? Just want to take me home?" She didn't believe it, absolutely didn't believe it.In the car, there was a moment of silence.Ashley looked at the street lights receding behind her, if Christian didn't say it, then why did she have to ask?If he wanted to say it, he would have said it himself.After a long while."Is the young master okay?"Ashley understood...it's not okay at all.“You should go ask him, you are his subordinate after all.”Christian was silent for a moment, then said: “Ashley, you are very smart, I admit that I chased you not just to take you home. I have many questions to ask you privately. It's just a pity that I haven't had the chance yet.”“Just ask.”“Miss Gina, do you remember her?”Ashley’s fingers moved slightly: “Of course.” She slowly raised her head, looking at the driver in front.The streetlights outside were bright, leaving a moving shadow on her face
In the end… who was it?At this moment, a few people appeared in her mind. A flash of light flashed momentarily, and then she narrowed her eyes and said solemnly: “The person standing behind you is a tall, dark-skinned man. There’s a scar on the back of his left hand, right?”Although the other party hid it very well, they were still a little surprised. “We don’t know who you’re talking about, Ashley, remember one thing. You brought about today’s outcome. We’re all paid to work, today, we have to let you suffer a little.”After speaking, the leader used a vicious gaze to signal the two subordinates beside him: “Don’t hold back, hit hard.”Ashley's face changed color, this group of people wasn't joking, not threatening her.The thugs holding baseball bats in their hands, had already approached her, shouting and charging.Seeing the danger coming, she unconsciously bent her legs and ran towards the light.But she forgot, that even though her legs were strong, she still couldn't resist t
The fat man was so scared that he trembled, the leader was also terrified to see the person who appeared out of nowhere, then was thrown into the corner of the wall by a very strong force, he didn't think carefully that the other party suddenly threw him into the wall, only looked up in horror at the person who suddenly appeared, "Who are you?"Where did this person come from?He was still thinking, suddenly realized, that what should be done was not done, coldly snorted, then called: "Fatty, hit her.""But...""There is no but. After completing the mission, we will leave this city and never return.""But this guy, what if... what if...""No, think about it, this much money is enough for us to live for the rest of our lives, after this time, we can eat, drink, and have fun for the rest of our lives."The fat guy seemed to hesitate a bit because the man suddenly appeared, the leader saw the fat guy hesitate and shouted angrily: "It's not murder or arson, what the hell are you afraid of
His back was taking the blows for her. This person used his own body to protect her, not letting her suffer any injuries. She lay in his arms, her eyes wide open, refusing to close, her eyes filled with tears.She didn't know why tears were falling, her ears were filled with the sound of the other person suppressing the pain. In the past, Milan would use a stick to beat away those who intended to harm him, but now, Milan used his shoulders, back, and himself to cover up the injuries that the outside world wanted to cause her.On Ashley's left, there was a bit of warmth, it was the cold sweat on the other person's forehead falling.Her nose stung, and she pushed him away, the person in front of her staggered two steps, "Ashley, don't...""It's okay." She reached out, tightly grasping the arm of the person who was about to hug her, the tall man saw her and smiled fiercely. "Frustrated by not hitting the main target. You understand. Behave yourself."The corner of her eyes glanced at the
She was still as stupid as usual but knocked the attacker to the ground.Behind her, as if a gust of wind blew by, the tall guy raised the stick in his hand and was immediately pulled back by someone from behind. The fool stabbed towards this side.Indeed, fighting had no rules, but she insisted on fighting recklessly.Before the tall guy could even say anything, his entire body was knocked to the ground, the moment he fell, his mind was still a little hazy, how could he be subdued by this tall fool?The fat guy ran over, raised his head to look, and his entire body felt that something was wrong.In the darkness, he raised his head and looked up at the terrifying eyes, blood-red streaks filled their eyes, and what was even more terrifying was, in those eyes, were pitch-black pupils, extremely cold, flashing with a trace of murderous intent.In a flash, the fat man's brain suddenly felt clear... this person can kill people.That scary person, on the one hand, was very polite, on the ot
Ashley quickly interrupted the other person: “Are you asking why my legs are tired?” The other person looked at her with surprise, her clear eyes unable to hide her thoughts. Seeing this, Ashley lowered her eyes slightly, when she raised her head, she revealed a gentle smile: “You just asked if sitting on the ground is comfortable, right?”“That’s right, Ashley, is it comfortable sitting on the ground?”“Come here, that’s right, lean closer to me,”She smiled and waved, extremely friendly and kind, in the eyes of eight-year-old Milan, she was a gentle and friendly girl.Looking at the girl’s beautiful smile, no matter how you looked at it, it was not enough.“That’s right, that’s right, too far, a little closer.”The girl’s smile became more and more beautiful.“Come here, sit down, sit down and you’ll know if it’s comfortable or not.”Ashley intimately pointed to her side, the other person opened his eyes wide and looked silly, “Really?” He immediately sat down.Ashley’s expression w
My parents stood not far away, but they did not enter the garden. At that time, I didn't understand, were my parents sad.Later I learned that my parents wanted to give my grandparents a final space.Her funeral was not a big deal, but the whole city of S, even the powerful and prestigious people, came to pay their respects.Her funeral was arranged by my grandfather.After my grandmother passed away, my grandfather's bones began to weaken.After examination, they couldn't find the cause. My father said, "Your grandfather has a mental illness."What is mental illness? I didn't dare ask.It's just that every year after my grandmother passed away, my grandfather would hold her portrait, and cherish it, as if my grandmother was still alive.Occasionally, my grandfather would talk to her portrait, as if he were talking to her. Another spring, everything seemed to be restored.My grandfather pulled me back and said, "Like.""Like what?""Like your grandmother.""Don't be sad anymore." I'm
My name is Kal Elise. This name was given by my grandfather, and as for his personality, according to my experience when I was young, he was not a good person.My grandfather's name was Milan. I heard that he was extremely charismatic when he was young.My grandmother's name is Ashley.Sometimes I wonder why this couple, who seemed to be incompatible, can still be together until now.Before my father was born, my grandparents divorced.After the divorce, my grandparents did not remarry.My grandfather did not care about my face and clung to my grandmother all day long.Since I have memories, my grandfather has always treated my grandmother well.Grandpa Tyson told me: Your grandfather never bowed to anyone, he was arrogant, and everyone was afraid of him.But why do I feel that what Grandpa Tyson said is not trustworthy?If my grandfather was that strong, why did he obediently run home like a puppy just because of a glare from my grandmother?Moreover, have you ever met an arrogant ma
“Divorce is good.”The old man snorted and walked on crutches.“Wait.” She chased after him: “The matter between you and my grandfather, don’t drag it onto me anymore. I don’t owe you. If you still want to collect the debt, find my late grandfather. Okay, I’ve made my position clear, you go, I won’t see you off.”“You…” The old man behind her trembled with anger, but Ashley had already gone far away.Meadow chased after her: “What’s the matter? Is there a grudge between Elise's house and Patterson's house?”“Nothing.”“Then I…”“I don’t like that old man.”Meadow agreed with her: “That’s right.” Elise's house and Patterson's house, the grudge between Mr. Elise and Mr. Morio, it’s best to resolve it between the two of them. As for her, she didn’t want to mention it.3 days after the surgery. Inside the intensive care unit, the man lying on the bed did not have any reaction.Even the slightest reaction was enough to make everyone happy.The morning of the first day.The man on the bed
However, she didn't need to do anything, the girl quietly looked at the man on the hospital bed, and a second later, she reached out to him.“You don't need to dirty your hands for me…” Before he could finish his words, a thin, weak body pressed against him.Suddenly, a soft feeling rose in his heart.He was surprised and didn't know what was happening."You..."Her index finger unbuttoned his shirt, and she turned over and sat on him, in a position like making love. "You..."She lowered her head and kissed his lips. If he could still endure like this, then he wasn't a man.His mind was blank.His body responded honestly, his big hand grabbed her waist, tilted his head, and kissed her back.Outside the door, Reuben heard the sound of the door locking, he suddenly felt worried, he raised his hand to knock on the door, but was stopped by Meadow."The door is locked, what if she does something bad to the young master...""That's not the case." Meadow retorted.Tyson's face was solemn: "S
In the hospital, the door of the ward opened without a sound.When Tyson ran over, he saw the girl.He didn't say anything, Meadow pulled him out into the hallway and closed the door.The man lay on the bed, his head tilted to one side, sleeping, deep in his dream.Not knowing what was in his dream, he frowned, showing that his sleep was not peaceful.The hand on the bed was wearing a wedding ring.The girl walked slowly, finally stopping in front of the man's hospital bed.Her eyes fell on the man's ring finger.She didn't know what she was thinking.She just stared at the ring for a long time, staring until she fell into thought.Not knowing how long it had been, the man opened his eyes vaguely, seeing the girl in his dream.He smiled slightly: "I'm dreaming again."Like a friend he hadn't seen for a long time, his tone of voice to her was both gentle and warm: "That's great, you still appear in my dream."The girl standing by the bed was lost in thought, her eyes gradually focused
In the three years, she also saw Milan constantly looking for Ashley. Everyone told her to stop looking, maybe Ashley had died long ago.If she didn't die, why couldn't he find her after three years?But that man didn't believe it, he kept looking. In addition to finding the girl in his heart, his life was all about work.What Meadow saw was an arrogant man, never giving up on finding the girl in his heart.Although she couldn't tell what Milan had done, she could see that he was very persistent.All of these were things she expected from a man, but perhaps she couldn't find that person in her entire life.But Ashley wasn't like that.She could get the happiness she couldn't have from Ashley. She had gone through bad things with Ashley, and all those bad pasts would probably end with Ashley.She admitted she was very biased.But the important thing is that she can see that Ashley is not a heartless person. Ashley does not completely give up, it is just that she is running away.If the
Tyson sneered: "Now you say it's all over, why didn't you say it straight at first? I'll tell you, you're strange. At first, you didn't hesitate to use any tricks, you refused to let go. Now that you're sick, you chased her away."Tyson felt a little sour in his heart: "Now I believe it, you love her very deeply."The man didn't say anything, Tyson also felt bored."I heard she's going back to City A."The man paused for a moment, then hoarsely said: "She likes that place, it's a good place. Okay, okay.""Aren't you going to say goodbye to her? This might be the last time you two see each other."As a friend, he didn't want to say these unfortunate words. As a doctor, he knew very well how serious his good friend's condition was."No... No more." The man tilted his head and looked out the window: “She hates me, I’ve always known that.”“You…” Tyson wanted to say why he had to be like this, but he respected his friend’s choice: “You like sleeping more and more, why didn’t you tell me a
In the hospital.In the VIP room, today an unexpected figure appeared."Let him in."In the ward, the man of few words.The door of the ward opened, and an outstanding man walked in."You grasped the news so quickly." On the hospital bed, the man gently curled his lips and said, his lips pale and bloodless.“I have a source. Even if you hide it well, I can't guarantee that you won't reveal it."The man curled his lips and smiled lightly: "You don't have to be in such a hurry. When I die, the Elise Group will be yours.""Hurry up." The person who came found a seat: "When you die, all the assets will be transferred to her."Although he didn't say who "she" was, a light flashed under the man's eyes: "You know me very well.""No no no." The person who came shook his finger: "It was just a coincidence that I saw Lawyer Mike coming out of the hospital that day. Lawyer Mike was hired by you, and has a department that only serves you and the Elise Group."He held a briefcase, and behind him w
Perhaps out of curiosity, or perhaps her head was already wet, she raised her head slightly to peek… And couldn’t take her eyes off him anymore. She was captivated by the rich and complex emotions in his eyes.Gentle, lingering, and… what else could it be?She had used all her vocabulary to find a word that could describe it. But, she searched her mind but couldn’t find a word that could describe that gaze.Her eyes gradually became confused. She couldn’t understand this person’s gaze.The feeling was very familiar, but also very strange.A warm hand gently placed itself on her forehead.He gently rubbed the scars that would never disappear.“It must have hurt a lot back then.”That person gently asked her.She felt uncomfortable with this gentleness, so she placed her hand on his, and said without hesitation: “It doesn’t hurt.”Her body had experienced more pain than this wound.Ask her if it hurts. What's the point of pretending?At that moment, she thought.A red swelling immediate
