"We don't know much about that, we just do what we're told." The manager said truthfully, with a mysterious look on his face as he answered my question. I know he knows something. He just won't tell me.
With no useful information, I sighed and returned to the living room, where I was surprised by the mountain of designer clothes, shoes and bags. The clothes and shoes are all the latest of the season, and many of the bags are limited edition. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it. MK had so many sent to me at one time, which was enough to prove how much power and financial resources were. With MK as my backer, I feel a little uneasy in addition to having confidence. MK must be a man of very high social status. What kind of woman does he want? Why would he want me? Now I have nothing left but a life. What can MK get from me? Even the life I have now is MK. I thought about it for a long time, but didn't come up with anything, so I gave up. Pick one outfit from those clothes, I took a taxi straight to Claude's company. This is the Hansom family company, and it is also where Claude usually deals with pack affairs. People in the company knew me, and I made it to Claude's office, where he was doing his business. I wore a strapless dress. Because I myself have lost a lot of weight during this period of time, the whole person looks thin and thin, and my face has faded from the baby fat, showing a little more of the mature charm of a small woman. When we met yesterday, I was embarrassed, he did not have a good look at me. Seeing my radiant appearance, Claude's eyes flashed deep. He stood up and said, "Have you come to your senses and agreed to accept my rejection?" Seeing Claude's delicate, almost perfect face, I felt like suffocated. I've had a crush on Claude ever since I first met him as a child. It only takes three seconds to love someone, but I had no idea that my love would cost me so much. "It was not you who is going to reject me," I said, taking a deep breath. I could not cry, and gritted my teeth and pretended to be calm. "It is I who have come to refuse you today. It is I, Natalie Fowler, who is rejecting you as my Alpha." "You refuse me?" Claude sneered, "I don't know what you're thinking, but you do realize that it makes no difference to me either way. I'll just say yes." I thought my heart had been numb, but I did not think it could be more painful. Did Claude agree so readily because he wanted me to leave as soon as possible to make room for Vicky? "But I'm going to take all the property with my name on it." I clenched my fist and said, "Everything." No one spoke in the office as soon as my request was made, and an awkward silence hung in the room. Claude looked at me in silence with mixed emotions in his eyes. After a long time, Claude looked "you are crazy" and said, "Nat, you don't need to do this. We can part on good terms and still be friends." I thought I would be able to face Claude calmly today. But when I heard his words, I was still trembling with anger, and my chest was filled with depression. I choked up and said sarcastically: "Otherwise Vicky will always be a mistress, maybe your future children will only be a rogue." "Nat, how can you be such a bitter person now? After all, Vicky is also your sister." Claude's brow furrowed at the mention of children. I stopped looking at Claude's face. I was afraid that I would be weak and compromise: "Then you let Vicky be a secret mistress. The choice is in your hands." My tone was unusually strong, and there was no room for negotiation. I forced myself step by step forward, there is no retreat, even if the front is the abyss, I do not allow myself to retreat. Claude saw that I was not joking. He looked at me in disbelief and said, "Are you crazy?" I laughed at myself. "I'm crazy, but you and Vicky made me do this. I lost my mind when you betrayed me and killed my child. I'm telling you, I deserve all of this, and if you don't give me what I want, you're not going to let me leave, and Vicky is going to spend the rest of her life as a homewrecker.""I'm so disappointed in you. This is who you really are." Claude's face is very ugly: "You are a greedy and vain gold digger." I saw the disappointment in Claude's eyes and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. I stood by Claude's side for four years, gave him everything, even my life. Everything my mother left me, I gave to Claude. "Whatever you think, it's up to you. I'm willing to wait. I just don't know if Vicky will wait." I clenched my fist and refused to concede a single step. Claude did not speak, but looked at me in silence. I felt suffocated under Claude's gaze. I hated this man, but at the same time, I was still very worthless. I could not let go or forget this man. I hate myself for being so weak, but this is the first step of my revenge, and I can't compromise. I turned my back to Claude and said, "Take your time, I'll go." Suddenly, Claude came up to me, grabbed my arm, and I stopped on my feet without looking back, but without struggling to push Claude away. "Did you make your decision so quickly? Your love for Vicky is really touching." I chuckled sarcastically. It's just that if Claude saw my face, he would see that I laugh worse than I cry. Claude did not answer: "Who is MK?" When I heard his question, my heart stopped and I looked back at Claude with a shocked face."MK? "I asked, surprised. "What MK, I don't know..." I lowered my eyes, not wanting to show too much emotion. But his question set alarm bells ringing in my heart."You don't have to pretend with me. I know you know MK. Why else would MK have asked my father to warn me not to use the house?"MK seems to be more powerful than I thought. With a sudden feeling of confidence, I smiled at Claude, pulled his hand away from my wrist, and left his office.When I walked out of here, before I could calm down, I received a phone call from MK. I immediately got on the phone.Before I could speak, MK asked, "Nat, are you crying?" Although MK is asking me, but the tone is very determined."Don't cry, only coward can cry..." MK said coldly, "I don't want the person I help to be a waste." I recognized the coolness in MK's tone, and my heart seemed to stop for a beat."No, I'm not crying." I took a deep breath and adjusted my tone. I didn't really want to cry, I just felt sad."Well, tears are the mo
I was taken aback."Ah..." I let out a scream of fear, but before I finished, someone put a tight hand on my mouth.The man's slightly calloused hands and prickly cheeks hurt. His sub-woofer's sexy voice rang out: "SHH... Don't scream, it's me.""MK? I immediately recognized that it belonged to MK. His voice was deep and sexy, and I had no power to resist."Well, it's me." MK answered in a low voice, and then bowed his head close to me, warm breath hit my face, I was suddenly surrounded by MK's cold breath. MK's slightly cold lips pressed down and kissed me strongly but gently.I reached out to push away MK. "Don't..." I gasped slightly. Although this is not the first time, but I still very not used to it.MK took me in his arms and separated me with an attitude that would not allow me to refuse. He said, "Nat, be good. Since the day you promised to deal with me, you have no qualification to refuse.""But I," I tried to excuse myself, but was quickly interrupted."You can't feel my ho
As long as it is about Vicky, Claude has no opinion of his own. He will always take Vicky's side.I was forced to follow Claude and Vicky to the hospital. Vicky went into the consultation room and Claude held me outside the door, as if afraid I'd run away."Don't worry, Vicky will be fine. I'm going to the bathroom. If you're worried, you can follow me." I have gradually calmed down, now only feel Claude pulling me upset."You..." Claude, seeing the emotion in my eyes, seemed to be burned and let go.I sneered and turned to the bathroom. When I got back from the bathroom, Vicky was already out of the consultation room and I didn't see Claude. What does it matter to me whether Vicky is alive or dead? If Claude hadn't dragged me here, I wouldn't have looked at them.I was about to leave when suddenly I heard Vicky talking to a child in the ward. I couldn't help pushing the door and saw Vicky talking to a child with a gentle face."Mom, does it hurt?" Asked the child, his young face full
The door opened, and a woman in a red dress got out of the car. With a worried look on her face, she helped me up and asked, "Are you OK?, Miss?"I got up from the ground with a little embarrassed, the car didn't hit me, but I just accidentally twisted my foot."I'm fine..." I shook my head. It was my fault. I just got distracted. I turned the red light, but I didn't see it, so I almost got hit by someone else."Shall I take you to the hospital, Miss? You may rest assured that I will take care of it." Said the woman with a sincere look.I just want to laugh, I shook my head, said: "I did not look at the road, the responsibility is not you."As I limped away, the woman suddenly grabbed my arm and said, "Natalie?""I am, and you are?" I asked vaguely."You don't remember me. I'm Novia." Novia clasped her thumbs and fingers into a circle, placed them over her eyes, puffed out her mouth, and motioned for me to see.I just looked at her and recognized her immediately. Novia, my best friend
I froze a little when I saw him. I didn't expect Novia's cousin to be not only so young, but also so good-looking. This man is the only man I have ever seen who can equal Claude. Claude is gentle and harmless, but this man has a cold temperament.When I came in, the man looked up at me and said, "Novia already told me. I'm her cousin Galvin Powell. Just call me Galvin."Galvin?He has a G in his name, too? At this moment, I unexpectedly thought of MK. Galvin saw me in a daze and tapped his long fingers on the table. "Miss Fowler..."I came back to my senses and frowned in frustration. "Sorry, I was a little distracted..." I said, embarrassed."I have reviewed your resume and I have no doubt about your professional competence. And I know from Novia that you're in trouble. You're welcome in my pack, but business is business." He said, handing me a folder. "This is a plan given by a client. They like a stylish and simple style. You design the living room for them, in my office. When you'
"James, are you all right?" Claude's nervous voice began to sound, and he picked up the child from the ground as if he were a treasure.Galvin looked at Claude with a cold face and said, "You, watch the baby in public!""Galvin?" Claude was a little unsure and seemed to be seeing someone he hadn't seen in years.Galvin took me around the waist and seemed to have me under his protection. Seeing that I was trembling, he took off his coat and threw it over my shoulders."Are you all right? "Asked Galvin, softening his cold face. I turned my head to realize that I had nearly fallen and it was Galvin holding me.I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, but I didn't push Galvin away. Now I was full of strength. I was afraid that after pushing Galvin away, I would be embarrassed to stand unsteady, but I didn't want to show weakness in front of Vicky and Claude."I'm fine..." I said with a pale smile.Claude seemed to be thinking of something in the past. He looked at me in Galvin's arms wi
I suddenly laughed. For the longest time, I was convinced that Galvin was tough to live with, what with his stoic expression and all. But at this moment, I realized that I was wrong. Galvin is a boss with a cold face and a warm heart. His assistance has really meant a lot to me lately and has been a source of comfort during challenging times.After work, I stood at the office floor, ready to take a taxi to my new home. I was stunned for a while. It was getting dark. It was going to rain. I stood my ground and instead of waiting for a taxi, a black Mercedes pulled up in front of me. The window rolled down slowly and Galvin's face appeared. "Where? I'll take you.""It's OK," I waved my hand and said, "I'll just take a taxi.""Natalie," Galvin called out to me, then looked at me blankly and said domineering, "I'm not asking for your advice. I'm ordering you in."It seems like Galvin is a soft-spoken person, but he can be a little dominating at times. If he has decided on something, he do
Throughout the remainder of the day, I was experiencing dizziness and Galvin seemed to pick up on it, repeatedly checking in on me. As much as I wanted to push through it, I had to eventually make the decision to excuse myself. I didn't want it to impact my work, so I cleared it with Galvin and headed home early.Surprisingly, Galvin wasn't upset when I accidentally spilled the perfume. He didn't even mention it and instead asked if I had injured myself on some broken glass. It made me appreciate his concern for my well-being.It was a strange feeling as I stepped out of the taxi, still catching hints of the perfume in the air. In my head, I couldn't help but combine the images of Galvin and MK. I questioned Galvin's motives - would he truly assist me just because I was introduced by Novia? But regardless, I knew I could count on him for support.As I reached the door, I noticed the strong smell of smoke coming from inside. I quickly realized that someone was in my house. Without wast
