Chapter 121 My reasons

“Don’t cross the line,Eugene.”Ezra yelled, slamming his hand on the desk.“Business is business, Dad. Keep the personal things out of it. That’s what you’ve always taught me.”Eugene languidly leaned into his chair, expression calm.“You’re greedy, that’s what you are! Haven’t you had enough? What should have been my eldest son’s post was given to you already, yet now you still want to aim for the board? Why don’t you just swap in as President yourself?” Ezra roared.Eugene sneered, shooting his father a cold glare. “Haven’t you benefited more from me being in my current position? Ever since I was young, you have set a price on every single thing I wanted to attain.You know full well why I’m in the CEO’s chair today, so why act like the innocent victim here?We’re the only ones in this room. Don’t you get tired of putting on this act?”Ezra was left red–faced and speechless.“Me as VP, in exchange for the company’s salvation from a serious crisis. It’s your choice.”Eugene stood up from

Chapter 122 Little bastard

Eugene ended up meeting Brad in a newly opened club in the City.Brad’s tables were filled with all kinds of wine.He held one right now, belting out his lungs to “Live or Let Die.”Eugene reclined on the luxurious sofa with a shot of whisky in hand. He looked like some sullen adonis, exuding a strong, potent air even in the dim surroundings of the room.“So live and let die!” Brad yelled into the microphone.It was nearly enough for Eugene to crush his shot glass into pieces.If he had known Brad for two years less, he wouldn’t be sitting here keeping the loser company or enduring this torture.Eugene took a painful swallow of his whiskey.“My man! Burp!” Brad called, heaving a loud burp before falling onto the couch beside Eugene.He reached out to hook an arm around his friend’s shoulders, asking, “How was my singing? Terrific,yes?”Eugene frowned and moved away, making Brad fall flat on his face on the sofa. “You’re terrific if you were a donkey in heat.”“Bloody hell, did you get

Chapter 123 The stranger

“You really are Little Bastard.”Leah cackled joyfully.The man smiled, the coldness in his eyes dissipating instantly. He tucked his glasses back,reminiscing on the nickname he had been called so long ago.Even his father stopped calling him that years ago. Yet Leah was still the same old as before, unrestrained and always doing whatever she pleased.“You’re as beautiful as ever, even after fifteen years, Leah.”“Hehe…You’re not bad yourself!”Leah grinned, patting his cheek.The man’s smile deepened. He did not shy away from her touch. Now, this was the Leah he’d always remembered.She covered her mouth, burping once again. This time, her knees started shaking. She was unable to hold herself up any longer.The man smirked and lifted her into his arms right away, feet off the floor.“Hey, put me down!” Leah cried, wriggling away from his grasp like a feisty kitten. Her burgundy-red dress made the nicest contrast with her pale, milky skin.Feeling a sudden desire to toy with her, the m

Chapter 124 Brief second

Jameson froze on the spot, his heart clenching painfully for a brief second.Leah was fuming so hard her cheeks had gone flushed again. She glared at Eugene, yelling, “How low are you stooping now, Eugene? Let me go now! I am not going anywhere with you!”Eugene let her scream and pull, never letting go throughout. He felt like nothing more mattered in this world right now besides taking Leah away from this place, from this stranger.Seeing her being in a room alone with the stranger, having drank so much, was unbearable for him. He never expected Leah to be capable of something like this.“Let me go,Eugene, right–ah!”Eugene bent down and lifted her over his shoulder, hand locking on her waist as he marched straight for the door.“Put me down, you jacka–I’m gonna throw up.”Leah cried, beating at his shoulder with all her might.Her stomach was churning so badly. She was going to retch at any time.“I’m not stopping you.” Eugene eyed her sternly and continued walking on, not even a hi

Chapter 125 Lucky charm

Leah walked back to her VIP room. She was sober, and her good mood had dissipated.What kind of coincidence was she experiencing to be able to meet Eugene here, of all places?Maybe she should get a lucky charm or something to keep her from this shitty luck.Just then, a pair of warm hands wrapped around her arm.Leah looked at who it was and smiled when she saw it was Fabiola. “I’m… I’m okay,Fab.”“Was that…Was that your ex–husband, sis?” Fabiola asked curiously.“Mhm.”“Wow! He’s so hot!” Fabiola’s eyes were wide with admiration. “I thought Jason,Tre,Marcel, and Liam were handsome already. I didn’t expect anyone else to be able to top them.Your ex has that kind of striking hotness, like a beach model or something. Is he really just a company CEO and not some kind of superstar?”Leah cupped her forehead, scowling, “Striking hotness, my ass…He’s not even an oven.”“No wonder Mom said he was hotter than Chris Hemsworth! I didn’t believe her at first, because she has had a crush on the

Chapter 126 Ice

“Calm down? Calm down?I don’t even know if my daughter will survive the night! She has shed tears and blood for you,Eugene. She might not even live to see another day! Don’t tell me to calm down!”Maria screamed.She continued, “If you didn’t love my Jessie, then why did you lie to her? Why did you pro mise you would marry her? My Jessie is too sweet a girl. When you wanted to kill yourself all those years ago, she rescued you! How could you do this to her? Have you no heart?”Eugene’s heart ached dully. Those dark memories flooded his chest and mind, making it increasingly difficult to breathe. Those memories consumed his thoughts until they were all he could think about.***************Leah had been sent to the hospital tohave her wound bandaged up, thanks to Jameson Schmidt.She had asked Josh to stay back and look after Fabiola. She was concerned that Fabiola would be frightened by the sight of her injury.Meanwhile,Fabiola kept blaming herself for her sister’s accident, making J

Chapter 127 To Leah

Leah was seeing someone else now.Eugene clutched his chest, wondering why the pain was so intense. It felt as if someone had carved a hole behind his ribs.It was only at this moment that the realization of their divorce struck him like a freight train of bricks.When Josh saw Leah and Jameson emerge from the elevator in the underground parking lot, he hurried over. “Ms. King! How’s the injury?”“All taken care of. What about our attacker?”“I’ve had someone escort him back home,undercover. He’s currently at our private headquarters. There’s no way he can escape,”Josh whispered to her.“Great!We’re going to have loads of fun for the next few days.”Leah grinned devilishly.Josh nodded.”Whenever you’re ready, Ms. King.”“Wait for me by the car. I want to talk to the guy first.”Leah then turned back to Jameson.Jameson gazed steadily at her, leaning against his sleek Bentley like a marble Adonis.“You’ve seen my relationship with Mr. Moore. It’s more complicated than I’d like.”Leah smil

Chapter 128 I was right

“Miss…Ms. Alyssa has gone to bed, Mr King,”Josh muttered.“Your balls must be growing bigger while you’re away from my side, Josh. Are you seriously lying to me on her behalf now?”Jason rarely got angry, but when he did, he was a menacing force.Jason then added, “I’ll repeat myself.Give the phone to Leah.Or else you’ll be removed from your station right away!”Leah chewed on her lip, her heart beating fast in her chest as she took the phone and put it up to her ear.“Ja…Jason.”Jason took a deep breath, as if suppressing some intense emotion.”Come outside. We need to talk.”Leah walked out of her house, her heart in her throat as she went up to Jason by the road.The man remained stoic and still against the car, his gray suit making him seem like some sullen god. All Leah could think of right now was how terrified she was.“Jason,I…”she murmured.“Get in. It’s cold.”Jason took off his coat,put it over Leah’s shoulders, then led her into his car.Finally, when they were inside, he ask

Chapter 129 An advantage

“What are you smiling at? Do you think this is a joke?”Ezra snapped.Eugene replied, “Yes,I do.”“You’ve crossed the line,you brat!”Ezra roared, slamming his fist on the table.“You want me to marry her so the company’s reputation can stay intact. I would applaud you for the quick thinking, really. But if we’re arguing about personalities, then I can only say ‘like father, like son.¹”His lips curled into a sneer.“What…are you…”Ezra tensed up instantly.“Jessica used to be the woman of my dreams, yes. But I can no longer force myself to marry her.”Eugene looked away. “Still, she saved me. If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t have lived to this day. I will repay her with this. After she recovers, I’ll break up with her.”“You…You want to break up with Jessica?”Ezra cried in disbelief.“Yes,”Eugene replied without hesitation.“Do you think she could handle that news,Eugene? She has serious depression and almost took her own life because of the marriage postponement! Do you have any idea w

Chapter 130 Your instructions

Eugene had long heard about JK Group and Schmidt Group’s joint ventures, both in the country and overseas. Additionally, the family heads had cultivated a close friendship spanning more than two decades.Eugene pondered whether this meant that Leah had known Jameson since her childhood. He contemplated whether their close bond had its roots in their shared childhood.Tristan sighed, a look of envy and admiration in his eyes.”Ms. King truly is blessed. Her father dotes on her so much that he surrounds her with all these elites. Even someone like Josh Lynch is only her personal assistant.”He then eyed his boss, feeling pitiful on his behalf. Eugene’s title as CEO and soon-to-be VP of the board of directors seemed minute accomplishments compared to the grandiose Leah was steeped in.Even blind men would be dazzled by her!A vein in Eugene’s temple was throbbing. He leaned against the wall, hands slowly curling into fists. “First the Lynch family, then the Schmidts …What the hell is this
