Javier did not finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear.Henry nodded in understanding and left to do as he had been told.Javier sat on the sofa silently as he looked out the window, lost in his thoughts.The inevitable had happened.This time, he wouldn't go soft on the people who wanted to hurt his loved ones.The only reason why he had allowed the Marquez Group to spiral was because he was waiting for the perpetrator to show themselves.Now that he knew who was behind all this, there was no reason for him to be merciful.His expression was dark as he considered his next moves.At the same time, Hattie was feeling vindictive. Her boyfriend had succeeded in disrupting Javier's company.She had worked hard for this, and it was only just the beginning.She wanted to cause trouble for Javier so that Claire wouldn't be able to be with him.Even though she was now dating Yven, it still didn't stop her from thinking about Javier. She still held out hope that she would one day be able

"I was just…""That's enough." Yvan interrupted her before Hattie could explain herself again. His tone was firm. "Stop lying to me, Hattie. I am risking my livelihood to take revenge on the Marquez family for you. And what do I get in return for my troubles? You clearly don't love me, and you're calling another man's name when we're having sex. Do you know how hurtful this is? Hattie, I know you're using me," he said sadly.His tone made Hattie feel guilty. At the same time, she was touched by his earnestness.She got up and moved over to his side of the sofa and took his hand. "Yvan, I'm very sorry about that. But trust me, I really do want to be with you. I'll prove it to you, okay?"Yvan buried his head in his hands as if he were in turmoil. However, unnoticed by Hattie, his lips were curved into a triumphant smile. Hattie had taken the bait.He glanced up at Hattie uncertainly and asked, "Really? You won't think about him again?"Hattie nodded. "Yes, Yvan. I won't think about him

Hattie did not tell her parents what she was planning. She didn't even tell them that she had a boyfriend now, as she did not want them to worry about her.She planned to take this path on her own. Any consequence from it was hers and hers alone to bear.Tears welled up in her eyes at the thought. As she cried in the car, she began to miss the times when she could cry in Shawn's embrace.Shawn had always been like a brother to her. He would tolerate her and accept her without question. As if summoned by her thoughts, footsteps sounded from outside the car. A figure approached and stood beside her.Hattie stopped crying, surprised. Raising her head, she saw the very man she had just been thinking about. Her expression fell when she realized that Shawn must have seen her crying just now. Turning away, she scowled and said, "What are you doing here? Does it make you happy to see me upset?" She scoffed. "This is what you've always wanted, isn't it? Are you satisfied now?"Shawn did not an

Shawn was annoyed by her hesitation. He glared at her. "Why? Are you scared? Go and get prepared."He had ways to force her to do what he wanted her to do.Shawn knew that it wasn't right to coerce her into sex, but he couldn't control himself. This was the only way he could take revenge on her.Hattie gritted her teeth. She was in no position to refuse him, so she got up slowly and went to the bathroom."Clean yourself thoroughly," Shawn added coldly. "I don't want to see you come out in less than two hours. You're repulsive."Hattie paused. Unseen by Shawn, her expression was furious, but she had no choice but to swallow her anger. "Okay."The door to the bathroom closed, separating them from each other.Now that she was free to show her emotions, Hattie leaned against the wall and slid down helplessly. Her tears, brought forth by anger, humiliation, and pain, began to fall uncontrollably. Even so, she did not make a sound.She turned on the water and submerged herself in the bathtub

Hattie looked at Yven expectantly. Just as she expected, the gloomy look on his face melted away, replaced by a smile. "Is that true, Hattie? That's great!" He swept her into a hug.Hattie was pleased by the praise. In contrast to the fright earlier, this was positively delightful.They stayed in each other's arms silently for a while. Yven had decided to overlook her unfaithfulness. After all, he had already got what he wanted from her. Once he had the money, he could get the project from Javier.He had to avenge his father. Bit by bit, he would get back what he was owed from Javier!The next morning, Claire was called into Morrow's office as soon as she arrived at work.Claire did not know why, but she did not argue. In his office, Morrow was flipping through a document distractedly. When he saw Claire come in, he was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly recovered and offered her a seat. "Come and sit here, Ms. Weiss. There's something I need to discuss with you."Claire frowne
