After this morning, she realized Victor's past expressions of tenderness were just a façade. Once he set his mind, no one could sway his decisions."Who said I didn't pout? I was so close to getting down on my knees and begging him," Tally shared, holding back tears.Irina asked, "Did that not work?""I've lost count of how many times I pleaded," Tally sighed.Irina gave an agreeing nod. "That's just him. Mr. Glenn is all about going all out to get quick results when training people.""I mean, I don't need that kind of hardcore training for dealing with Yvonne alone. He's taking it too far," Tally voiced her frustration.When it came to training his associates, Tally could somewhat understand Victor's approach. Considering the constant potential danger faced by those around him, having self-defense skills would be a necessity.But when it came to her…Seeing Tally complain, Irina approached and sighed, "Mr. Glenn is doing it for your own good.""Huh?" Tally wasn't pleased.Ha
Once it erupted, Victor and those around him could anticipate the peril they would be in.Tally asked, "Was he always in such risky situations before?"Tally wondered if he had been constantly living in the thick of gunfire.She knew what kind of person Victor was and understood how the Glenns actually made their money.But now, when it came down to this moment, Tally realized she still couldn't stop herself from feeling suffocated.Irina mentioned, "Yeah, it used to be like that. But since you came into the picture, Mr. Glenn has been doing everything he can to break free."Break free?Tally thought about the time when she and Victor visited Celestial Peaks.In terms of what he wanted to do, it was evident that he was venturing into a new industry. He aimed to make a complete transition from the dark side to the legitimate side.Before she could say anything, Irina continued, "No matter how Mr. Glenn wants to change, one thing is clear—he knows that the burdens from the Glenn
Markus was currently at the Hunt residence.Once he heard the call end with a "beep", his face dropped.Seated across from him, Elijah observed Markus' darkened expression and sarcastically remarked, "Is that the impression she has of you?""I guess she's still not over those carnations you sent her," Markus retorted.Elijah was dumbfounded by Markus' reply. At the mere mention of carnations, Elijah's mood hit rock bottom.Just how could someone be so clueless? A florist, of all people, was unable to tell carnations from roses.Just thinking about it, Elijah got so frustrated. It was like a pain in his gut. He had never made such a basic blunder in his entire life, and this time, it was utterly humiliating.Even if he burnt down the flower shop, that annoyance wouldn't just magically vanish."Why can't you just go and apologize?" Elijah grumbled, his frustration evident. Markus struck him as utterly unbelievable.Elijah was irritated that Markus needed his help even in pursu
Tally went quiet. It was as if she was struck dumb by the situation.Her father had gone missing, and no one had a clue about how it happened."But wait, he's in a vegetative state. How can he disappear just like that?"How could a person without even basic self-care abilities vanish like this?Tally refused to accept the current reality.Irina also wore a serious expression. But the truth was, she too, had just received the news, and the specifics remained unclear.Upon discovering Randall's disappearance, her immediate response was to dispatch personnel for a thorough investigation.…The two of them rushed to the hospital, and Victor arrived ahead of them.By the time they got there, Victor was already in the ward. Spotting Tally, he walked briskly toward her.The doctors and nurses were also present.Even the hospital director was there. The entire ward now carried a solemn atmosphere."What's going on? How can someone just vanish?" Tally asked urgently, her eyes dartin
When Irina and Victor heard that Tally was going to fix the surveillance footage herself, they were both shocked. It was obvious they had no idea Tally had this skill.The damage to the video seemed significant. It was as if the person behind the damage knew Victor had a bunch of tech experts on his side.But such damage for Tally was a piece of cake. In less than five minutes, she had it completely restored.Seeing Tally's skill, Victor suddenly understood why Chris was after her.Apparently, neither Brian nor Lance could fix the video from that night.Now Victor finally understood why it was impossible to repair. The person behind the damage was a pro herself.There was no way Chris would let himself be outsmarted by someone close. He was definitely going to put Tally in her place. "Wait, why does that guy look so familiar?" Tally furrowed her brows while watching the surveillance footage.Victor replied, "That's Zane, the butler from the Hunt residence."As Victor mentio
Markus gave Elijah a call.Elijah quickly picked up, saying, "Hello.""Tally already knows everything. She's on her way to find you.""What? That was fast." Elijah was surprised."But her reaction might not be what you're expecting," Markus warned in a serious tone.After Markus said that, there was a brief silence on the phone.Elijah looked puzzled. "She didn't even beg you?"The way Elijah saw it, once Tally learned that her father had been taken, she would undoubtedly be in a state of panic.If the Glenns couldn't find Randall, considering Tally's past actions, she would likely seek help from more people. Sooner or later, she would be pleading for assistance from his own son, Markus.Till then…But Elijah never saw this coming. Even though it had only been one night, Tally already knew everything.It seemed like Victor had some skilled people on his side. Repairing the surveillance footage damaged by his man, Lincoln Adams, so quickly was quite surprising."Beg? She mi
Tally steadied herself, suppressing the storm of emotions within.Her words cut through the air, "I'll ask just once. Where's my father?"Elijah raised an eyebrow, sensing the tension emanating from Tally.His piercing gaze met Tally's. "You think you get to threaten an old man like me, huh?""Oh, so you're aware you're just an old geezer? Getting up there in years and still not worth a damn, huh?" Tally shot back. Elijah was too stunned to speak. Victor and Zane entered the room right after. Upon hearing Tally's blunt insult toward Elijah, both couldn't help but twitch their lips.Even Elijah was momentarily left in disbelief."You audacious little brat! Y-You…"In the heat of the moment, Tally couldn't hold back her emotions and lashed out at Elijah, questioning his decency despite his age. This fell significantly short of the respectful manner one should be when addressing an elder."Want to hear some nice words? You've thrown my dad into God-knows-where, and now you exp
Zane couldn't help but facepalm after Elijah's straightforward statement. It seemed Markus had truly mastered the art of embarrassing himself.Meanwhile, Markus remained oblivious to the fact that his father, Elijah, had just made a fool of him.Tally took a deep breath as she listened. She was finding the situation almost laughable.Even though Tally had a rough idea of what was going on when Elijah took Randall away, she was still taken aback when faced with the actual moment.She scoffed at Elijah, saying, "You want me to have lunch with your son?""Yes, starting today, you two will date and try to get to know each other," Elijah said sternly, not caring that Victor, Tally's fiancé, was also in the room.Victor's eyes flashed with coldness as he gave Elijah a chilling look.Tally chuckled mockingly, "You're asking me to understand your son, but you're resorting to using threats?""I don't care about the methods. I just want results!" Elijah exclaimed. Tally's remark left E
