After ending the call with Suzy, Karen secretly opened Yurika's suitcase, skillfully entering the password. Although Yurika deliberately avoided her every time she opened the suitcase, Karen still managed to uncover her secret. With a ‘bip’ sound, the combination lock opened.
Karen carefully searched inside and found a photo at the bottom, beneath the clothes. It was a picture of Yurika and Justin. Written in red pen on the back of the photo were the letters 'Y (Heart) J’.
She had always known that Yurika was secretly keeping such a photo because, like Yurika, she had loved and lost before. Even though Yurika never admitted her feelings for Justin, Karen could see it in her eyes.
Seeing this photo, Karen's eyes narrowed slightly. Thinking about the fact that the man both Samantha and Yurika admired would soon marry her, a sense of satisfaction filled her eyes.
She took out the photo
The repeated deception made Samantha completely unable to believe her."So, out of jealousy, you conspired with Suzy to deal with me?"Upon hearing her words, Yurika was stunned.She hurriedly shook her head and denied, "No, although I have many shortcomings, my only virtue is loyalty. Even if you killed me, I would never betray my best friend."Samantha looked at her with disappointment. "You still want to play innocent. I witnessed Suzy calling you. When my initial draft was stolen, you were quick to shift the blame onto Karen. But Karen defended you."Yurika anxiously said, "Samantha, listen to me. Although I don't have evidence, I'm a hundred percent sure that it was Karen who did it. Karen has long been colluding with Suzy. Although Sarah and Suzy were the masterminds of the events back then, Karen definitely couldn't be unrelated."When Samantha suddenl
Ethan arrived early and sat in the private box, glancing at his wristwatch from time to time. For the first time, he felt time passing so slowly. Although it was only an hour, it seemed like a century.Just when he felt like time had come to a standstill, Samantha finally arrived. Upon seeing Ethan, she immediately put on a smile and handed him a small cake, saying, "Thank you for today. This is the cake I made this morning. It's for you."Seeing the cake so close, Ethan couldn't help but swallow saliva, his stomach growling embarrassingly loud, making its presence known.Samantha noticed his discomfort and, understanding his reluctance to eat sweets, stuffed the cake into his arms, saying with a smile, "I know you don't like sweets, but consider it a favor for me. Just eat it!""Remember, I'm giving you face!" Ethan grumbled, dead set on maintaining his dignity. He picked up a piece of cake and put
Ethan was momentarily stunned.The scent of Samantha's unique fragrance filled the air between them. His breath suddenly became erratic, and his heartbeat accelerated.Samantha nibbled on his thin lips, murmuring indistinctly, "You may not say it, but I know you care about me.""Who cares..." Ethan began to speak, but Samantha didn't give him a chance to deny; she sealed his lips again.Ethan froze, as if struck by lightning, unable to resist.Seeing his lack of response, Samantha boldly cupped his face, brought her red lips to his ear, and whispered in a voice only they could hear, "I heard your office has a lounge?"While asking, her eyes roamed around the office.Soon, her gaze settled on the door next to the bookshelf.Ethan's eyes narrowed suddenly, emitting a dangerous aura."What do you wan
Not long after Samantha and Ethan left the Emperor Group, Suzy arrived. She was stopped by Jade outside the door."Miss Miller, the president is not in the office."Suzy's face turned unpleasant, "I know he's in there, and Samantha is also inside. I am the future wife of your president, and I have the right to enter my future husband's office."Jade maintained a distant attitude, showing a professional demeanor. "I'm telling the truth. Ten minutes ago, Miss Samantha was hungry, and Mr. Steele went out to have a meal with her."Upon hearing this, Suzy's face instantly displayed a spectrum of colors, vivid and brilliant."He... he went out to have a meal with Samantha?" Her body trembled with anger.Even though she had given birth to a son for Ethan, he had never treated her specially, let alone taken her out for a meal. What kind of charm did Samantha possess
After leaving the Emperor Group, Suzy went straight to the Steele family's old mansion.Upon seeing Anna, she cried with such a sense of grievance."Auntie, you must help me! Ethan is with Samantha again. If this continues, she will truly become Noah's stepmother. Noah has been introverted since childhood, and if he gets another stepmother, what will he do?!"Anna didn't like her son being accused, slightly furrowing her brow, displeased. "Ethan personally told me that he's not interested in Samantha. Don't be suspicious for no reason."Seeing her disbelief, Suzy took out photos Samantha had sent her and a small video Karen had sent."Look, this video was taken by Samantha in the lounge of Ethan's office. You should know that the lounge is a very private place, and Samantha can freely come and go there. Also, look at Ethan's neck, it's covered in hickeys..."
A cunning gleam flashed in Karen's eyes as she intentionally staggered when pushed.Samantha immediately supported her, anxiously asking, "Karen, are you okay? What happened?"Karen's face turned deathly pale. She shook her head, nervously holding Samantha's hand, on the verge of tears, "What's wrong with Yurika? Everything was fine, why does she suddenly want to move out? And why cut ties with us? Did I do something wrong?"Samantha shook her head, comforting her, "It's her own fault, nothing to do with you. Don't blame yourself.""No, we finally reunited as best friends. We can't let Yurika leave." After saying this, Karen wanted to go to Yurika's room.Samantha, however, held her back."Don't stop her. If she wants to leave, let her go. Forget how she treated you all this time.""But..."Karen still hesitated.
Upon seeing her, that piercing heartache struck again.His hands clenched in anger.He seemed to be shrouded in an icy frost, exuding a chilling aura.As Samantha approached, she noticed his unusual demeanor and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"Ethan took out his phone, found the photos, and handed them to her.At the moment she saw the photos, Samantha's face turned instantly pale, her lips unconsciously pursed."Where did you get these photos?"Her reaction, in Ethan's eyes, was a sign of guilt.A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes."Are you childhood sweethearts with him?"This was a fact that Samantha couldn't deny."Yes, we grew up together as childhood sweethearts."Ethan continued, "You got engag
When Alexander saw the message from Noah, it was already the next morning.Last night, when they exchanged identities and returned home, it was already late, and their father had not returned home, so he went to his room alone to rest.Perhaps due to exhaustion, he fell asleep and woke up the next day.Upon seeing Noah's message, he immediately ran to Ethan's room, wanting to find out what happened.However, the room was empty.No one was there.He rushed downstairs and found the butler, asking, "Butler, where's my dad? Did he go to work already?"The butler shook his head and truthfully replied, "He did not return all night."Upon hearing this, Alexander felt a sense of unease.Since he moved into this house, his dad had never been away for a whole night.But last night, he d
