Chapter 1251

Lina heard everything they said, and it hit her hard. Their stares felt like knives cutting into her face. Instinctively, she glanced at Desiree, who appeared quite intoxicated, lazily leaning on the couch.Desiree was looking back at her, and they locked eyes.Lina saw a clear, gloating expression in Desiree's gaze. Now, she understood the intent behind Desiree's actions.Desiree had defamed her and suppressed her, using Nicholas' unsavory past as a gangster to keep influential people away from Lina. This way, she couldn't interact with those important connections anymore.If things went according to Desiree's plan, Lina would be humiliated and angry.Lina remained composed, trying not to lose her temper, but the others were crossing the line, especially under the influence of alcohol.Desiree also joined in, seemingly drunk, but Lina suspected she was fully aware of her actions.Lina chuckled, looking at Desiree. "It seems we won't be able to proceed with our collaboration. Ne

Desiree instantly came to a realization. Just as she was about to scream, she saw Lina pulling out a gun and pointing it at her temple."W-What are you doing?" Desiree stammered."This is the gift I got for you. Do you like it?" Lina scoffed. "Even though my dad has been involved in legitimate business for a long time now, it seems like it can't stop someone from being mean to him!""Lina, you—"Lina scoffed. "Since you said I'm the daughter of a gangster, I can't let that nickname cause me pain. Don't you think so?"Desiree widened her eyes, terrified.Lina smirked, gloating as she loaded the gun. The sound echoed loudly in the empty bathroom.Desiree screamed in fright. Her legs trembled, and she almost fell down."I-It was a misunderstanding!" She explained with a shaking voice. "We were all just drinking too much. Lina, I-I didn't mean to say that. I…”"Misunderstanding?" Lina moved her wrist to lift Desiree's chin with the gun. "You used my fiance's cup in front of me. Wa

Desiree was in a mess, retreating with her hands supporting her body on the ground. She was unable to stop shaking and cried at the top of her lungs.In stark contrast, the janitor remained surprisingly calm, silencing Desiree with a cloth."You're annoying," the janitor stated."Mmph!" Desiree struggled in panic."Don't tell anyone about the gun, get it?" the janitor threatened.Desiree widened her eyes.Even Lina was stunned.The janitor had chased after Desiree to prevent anyone from finding out that Lina had a gun. After all, the Thompsons were now involved in legitimate business, and their reputation could be damaged if this information got out.However, Lina couldn't recall having any contact with this person, no matter how hard she thought.Why would she help her?Fearful and unable to do anything else, Desiree could only nod and cry.After removing the cloth, the janitor let Desiree go. The latter hastily crawled and ran away.Lina's heart raced as she stood outside

Desiree ran in panic, losing the strength to even drive. After a few attempts, she finally dialed the right number to get her driver to pick her up.By the time Desiree arrived home, she was drenched in sweat and as pale as a piece of paper, panting heavily. Though the room was just a short distance away, she had to hold onto the wall for support.The house she stayed in was bought by her family years ago in Centrolis. It was a large and quiet suburban property, far from public view. However, Desiree still found it was lacking.After catching her breath, she frantically closed all the curtains in the house, feeling terrified by the earlier events.Not only did she feel jealousy for Lina now, but resentment as well.The maid approached her quietly and said, "Miss, the person you want to meet is already in the guest room.""What?" Desiree calmed down. "She's here?""Yes, she arrived from Jangasas this afternoon. Since you weren't home, I took her to the guest room," the maid repli

Lina and Renee fell silent at the same time. The name Madame Krys had brought them back to the time on the ship. They had thought they had forgotten about it, but the narrow cabin, the wounded girls, and the ferocious eyes were playing in their heads like a movie. It was a traumatic experience, as well as an unforgettable memory."Maybe," Lina said softly. "Maybe she's really related to Madame Krys. Even though she saved our lives, she broke the law. We can't tell whether this Lena is a friend or a foe just yet, so we must be cautious."Renee nodded. "Cuz, if you really want to find out, why don't you go there a couple more times?"Toph quickly interjected. "It's a dangerous place. Better to stay away!"Renee looked at him and smiled but said nothing more.The group parted ways and went home after chatting for a while.-Desiree had been quiet these days. She used to hit Zuko up daily, but she now dared not even text him.When Toph was playing games, he would notice that her av

Zuko said, "I've looked over the proposal for her, and everything is good to go. I've also got people to handle the details.""Renee has been working hard, too," Toph complained. "I'm going to take her on a vacation when the opening is over!"Zuko pouted. He faked a chuckle and left.Renee had been working hard, but Lina had been covering everything, and she had had to do everything herself. It was hard for her to show perfectly the capability and quality that the successor of the company should have.Therefore, Zuko would also take her on a vacation after the opening ended. He wanted to bring her somewhere further than Toph was bringing Renee!He smiled as he thought about it. His mood was even better than the weather today. He didn't even bother with the driver, and he drove himself.-A week later, the opening of the Thompson Group's film studio took over the trending topic for the entire week.With the influence of Sol Entertainment and the Hamerton Group's Imperial Media,

The venue went silent for a second before loud applause erupted.The celebrities had seen it all, having been in all sorts of movies and dramas. But they had never seen anything so sweet as what Zuko had just done for Lina.They applauded, whether out of genuine appreciation or simply to go along with the crowd. But no one wanted to miss the opportunity to offer their sincere congratulations.Zuko and Lina began to dance. After taking off her heels, Lina felt lighter on her feet. Although she wasn't much of a dancer, Zuko's presence helped to calm her nerves.They made a handsome couple, and their graceful movements drew countless admiring glances.After the dance, they retired to the VIP room to discuss the future of the film studio. But their conversation was interrupted by Renee, who burst into the room in a panic."Cuz!" she cried.Lina was startled. "What's wrong?"Renee was so flustered that she could barely speak.Toph followed close behind, his expression grave. "There

Lina frowned and looked at Zuko. He was looking at her too, and they locked eyes, seemingly understanding what the other was thinking.At that moment, the police arrived."Are you Ms. Pamela Thompson?" a police officer asked.Lina was stunned. "I am..."The police officer said, "After our preliminary investigation, we suspect someone spiked the beverages at the banquet.""Who did it? Did you find out?" Lina asked.The officer looked at her with a complicated expression. "Ms. Thompson, we received an anonymous tip during our investigation that you prepared the beverages for the banquet.""What? Don't tell me you suspect me?" Lina was stunned, her mind blank."We can't rule anyone out who is connected to the case until we have solid evidence," the officer said respectfully, but his eyes were cold. "Ms. Thompson, please come with us to assist with the investigation."-Zuko waited at the police station. He couldn't go in, so he had no idea what was happening. Even though he look

Zuko smiled. "Thanks, Uncle Nicholas."Nicholas tidied his tie, looking proud. Linda then dragged him away, holding his ear.Zuko knocked on the door, but there was no response at first. He became worried and was about to ask the maid for a spare key when the door opened.Lina stood in front of him with her eyes downcast. She looked thinner, with dark circles under her eyes, but she didn't seem dispirited."Lina..." Zuko felt a pang of heartache and gently caressed her soft cheek, asking, "Is there anything else I can do for you?"Lina smiled and leaned into his embrace.During this time, Zuko had already done a lot for her. While Lina had been cooperating with the police investigation, he had been outside waiting for her. When Lina locked herself in her room, he had been analyzing the doubts and finding evidence.If Lina asked what else he could do for her...Lina said, "I'd like to take a walk. Would you go with me?""Of course!" Zuko was eager to do that. "Where would you l

Zuko looked at Lina with a particularly cheerful smile. "I said, I love you!"Lina froze as tears welled up in her eyes. Zuko held her hand, and his presence gave her an infinite sense of security. Despite the high altitude, she did not need to worry at all because he was the parachute that would never be absent in her life.After a safe landing, Lina was still immersed in the excitement and could not get enough of it. However, it was almost noon, and Zuko suggested that they have lunch first.Lina looked around. They had landed in the suburbs, with a long road behind them and the vast sea in front. There were few people there, and it seemed that there would be even fewer restaurants."Follow me." Zuko held her hand and said. "I know a place where you'll definitely get delicious food!"Lina chuckled. "Zuko, can I ask you a question?""Hmm?"Lina narrowed her eyes, beaming. "What were you doing before you found me? How come nothing seems to be able to stump you?"Zuko glanced at
