"You may leave first!" Melissa told the bodyguard.In the documents, Angeline was revealed to be a relative of the "Sean" replaced by Shane. Sean had been particularly attentive to Angeline ever since she was adopted by the chairman of Lawson Global. Back then, when Angeline was in a relationship with the son of Fletcher Corporation from Oceanford, Sean even supported the corporation.Following Angeline's marriage to the only son of the Fletcher family, she was involved in a car accident and was left in a vegetative state. Almost every week, Shane would pretend to be Sean and visit her. Melissa furrowed her brows. She felt an unexpected sense of unease. Let alone the fact that Angeline was merely a relative of the person Shane replaced; even if she was indeed Shane's relative, he treated her way too well.Melissa gripped the documents tightly. She then pulled out Angeline's photo from the file.As a woman herself, Melissa couldn't help but admit that Angeline was stunningly bea

Priceless masterpieces Bart had sourced from around the world lined the walls along the corridor. At the end of the corridor, two bodyguards stood guard outside a bulletproof door. Sean was only allowed to enter alone after being searched.Bart was only in his 30s or 40s but was already infamous in Southeast Aciana. He had a vendetta against Wayne—Bart's father used to be the kingpin of Southeast Aciana, but Wayne had killed him and destroyed everything.Bart had escaped under his father's subordinates' protection and returned after many years to take back what was his. Now, he was just about powerful enough to face off against Wayne.But no one who could succeed in this line of work was a pushover. It wouldn't be easy for Wayne to take Bart down, but it was equally tough for Bart to kill Wayne.It was under such circumstances that Sean had contacted Bart. His experiences in life were similar to Bart's, so naturally, Bart was more than willing to work with Sean. Of course, this was

"Don't move!" Lenny stopped Taylor. He saw that the man leaning against the car had a gun behind his waist.The tattooed man, Ivan, knocked on Lenny's window. He lowered it a little. Ivan said, "Our car broke down; we're still waiting for a tow truck. The road's too narrow for your car to pass, so you should turn back and take another road."There are barely any cars that go this way, so you won't have to worry about someone being in your way."Lenny nodded. "Alright, then."Angeline also caught sight of the gun behind Bart's waist. She didn't know whether it was real, but it was better to be safe than sorry. They weren't in Lonla, after all. Things weren't as safe here."Hold it!" Bart threw his cigarette onto the ground, stubbing it out before approaching them. Despite the window only being lowered a crack, he still saw Angeline's bright eyes staring at him from behind the driver's seat. Her face was so beautiful it was unforgettable.Lenny tensed. He immediately put the car in

Melissa linked arms with Sean. "Let's go, honey."She dragged Sean away from Angeline's table and to their own. Then, she apologized for the impromptu show she'd just put on. "Did I just mess things up, Shane?""What were you trying to get out of her?" Sean looked down at the menu, his tone bland and indifferent. "Are you pleased with whatever you got?"She tightened her grip on the menu. "I wasn't trying to do anything, Shane. I was just… I just wanted to help you talk sense into her!"Even Melissa herself wasn't convinced by that lie. Feeling diffident, she fell silent and bit her lip."You're my family, Melissa. If you have anything to ask, you can just be frank with me." Sean looked up at her with a smile. "I'll tell you everything that I can."Melissa almost blurted out a question about his relationship with Angeline. But she shook her head when she thought about Angeline's attitude and the mess she'd potentially caused with her stupid test."I won't do it again, Shane." Me

Angeline continued probing when she noticed Melissa's flippant attitude. "Blood transfusions are fine, but what about organ donations? Biology experts have been looking into replacements for organ donations in recent years."Wouldn't that be something you'd be interested in, Mrs. Kingston? It's really hard to tell whether you or anyone else would need this in the future.""Others might need it, but I won't." Melissa smiled and returned the menu to the waiter.Angeline said, "Whatever it is, I still think you need to care for your heart. After all, finding a heart that matches your blood type couldn't have been easy."Even if you do manage to find one… no healthy person would want to give up their life to donate their heart to you. I apologize if my words sound harsh; I just hope you'll realize the severity of the matter and take good care of yourself.""You seem to be very concerned about our community, Ms. Lawson." Melissa leaned back with a wry smile. "You're even more concerned
