If she did not respond, that meant that she was rejecting the conversation on this topic."Jane." He suddenly stretched out his hand and held Jane's palm. "Jane, no matter what he says, I believe in you." Callen expressed his attitude very seriously and very solemnly.Jane did not immediately break away from the other person's palm. Her sight moved down, inch by inch, and stopped on her palm that was being held by him. It was so quiet that she could even hear her breathing.Suddenly, she ligh
Zach looked at his friend and hurried back. His steps showed that he was in a hurry."A ghost is chasing after you?" he raised his sword-like eyebrows and said jokingly.Callen walked around Zach's side with his big steps. He walked to the wine cabinet and opened the glass door. He did not look at what he was picking and just roughly picked up a bottle of whiskey. He unscrewed it and poured it into his mouth with big mouthfuls. Within a few seconds, almost half of the new bottle of whiskey was
The power of the Stewart family was naturally to not be underestimated, but the Dunns were rooted in S City and could be regarded as an old-fashioned wealthy family as well. Although they were not considered as an aristocratic family, they were not without any foundation at all.If anyone of the Dunns had been visited her in prison at that time, things would not end up this way."So... There was such an episode." Callen remembered the woman's reaction to Jason in the office today. Suddenly, he
With a tired body, Jane drove the car to a residential building, but she did not park the car in the underground garage. She sat in the car and did not really want to get out. She lowered half of the car window down, stretched half her head out, and looked up.The house was brightly lit.Before Sean Stewart came to live here, it was often black and without lights.It was all right now. The lights were bright, showing that someone was in the house waiting for her to go back.However, why was
"Is there something wrong with Boss?"Jane was caught off guard. The tea in her cup shook. A few drops of tea spilled onto the table. Alora's gaze shifted down gradually, and finally fell on those few drops of tea that were splashed on the tea table."Don't talk nonsense,” Jane said softly."Jane, you know me. I've been in the night world since a long time ago, and you yourself have stayed there previously. You know one thing the best-people who can stay in such a lively place are the best at
Was half a life enough?!Alora Smith’s mouth was agape, speechless. Some pain, like they say, is in the past and should stay in the past. If it has already happened, there is no point holding onto it. Just like the warm lights shining out of every individual household, amongst the tens of thousands of families, every single light represents a myriad of stories. Oftentimes, the one who is wronged ends up having to “seek forgiveness”.You see, I have already apologized. So why are you stil
She continued, to be unable to escape this d*mned prison cell.Her phone rang.She picked up her phone and looked at the caller ID. With a load of suspicion, she tapped with her thumb as her eyes reflected a look of anxiety and impatience.“I’m sorry, Miss Dunn, we tried our best.” The methodical, almost algorithmic voice on the other end said.“But didn’t you just say that you had a match a week ago?”“Miss Dunn, I am really sorry but we tried our best to contact that person as soon as pos
Stewart Old Manor occupied a large piece of land. There was a stillness in movement, and there was a movement in stillness. A hundred years ago, the people who were able to live here were respected by many.The smell of sandalwood was in the air. Old Master Stewart’s face was hidden by the smoke. The folds on his aged face appeared vaguely through the smoke.Jane was brought to the parlor. She stood in the middle of the room for a long while. Aside from Old Master Stewart, the servants of the
