Alexander played wildly all day, and on the way back, he fell asleep in the car.Ethan gently carried him back to the room and covered him with a blanket.After returning to his own room, Ethan took a shower and lay in bed, but he couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard he tried.Unable to resist, he picked up his phone and checked it.Empty.No messages.He tossed the phone away disappointedly, feeling inexplicably irritated, not even sure what he was expecting.After a while, the phone 'dinged' with a sound.He picked up the phone at the fastest speed and checked the message.It was an advertising message.The anger in his heart flared up even more.He opened Whatsapp, found Samantha's cha
Starbucks.As it was still morning, the café wasn't crowded. Samantha quickly spotted the man sitting by the window, wearing silver-rimmed glasses. He held a bouquet of roses, had short hair, a slender figure, and was dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, giving the impression of fragility, like someone who might run away with the wind.When Samantha saw him, he also noticed her. A hint of amazement was clearly visible in his eyes. Adjusting his tie, he stood up to greet her, offering the bouquet of roses, "This is a gift for our first meeting. I didn't know what women like, and the salesperson said women like roses, so I bought roses, hoping you'd like them."Samantha did not reach out to take the roses. Instead, she asked tactfully, "Do you know the meaning of roses?"The man shook his head.Samantha smiled and said, "The meaning of r
Ethan's chest felt like it was set on fire.Burning all the way to his ears.He pushed Samantha away, suppressing the chaotic thoughts, and coolly uttered three words, "You're not worthy."Without looking back, he walked away.Leaving Samantha with a cold and aloof figure.But only he knew that his thoughts were already in disarray, and deep inside, there was an imperceptible sense of joy.However, Samantha had no intention of letting him go. She caught up, took his hand, and smiled, "Let me tell you, today I was planning to have coffee with Aaron, then watch a movie, have lunch, take a stroll in the afternoon, and after dinner, take another walk before heading back. You've suddenly disrupted all my plans. If you don't accompany me, I won't let you leave."Ethan didn't stop walking, firmly refusing, "Impossible."Samantha quickly explained, "Even if you don't agree to be my boyfriend, you should at least go through today's plans and activities with me, right?"Ethan paused and looked
Sarah sat on the side, watching as Suzy's face twisted into a terrifying grimace. Sarah crouched down, picked up the phone that had been thrown to the ground, and opened it.Her eyes squinted suddenly, almost biting her silver teeth.With a fierce expression, she said, "If I had known it would be like this, I should have killed her and her damn mother together back then."Suzy, with red eyes, shed tears continuously."Samantha did it on purpose. She doesn't want me to be happy, wants to snatch my man away. Otherwise, with so many men in the world, why does she have to seduce my man?"Sarah came over to Suzy's side, gently patting her back to comfort her."Don't get angry! Leave it to me!"After saying that, she took a screens
Samantha was genuinely startled to see him."You... how did you end up here?"Did he see everything just now?Justin, trembling with jealousy and anger, pointed in the direction Ethan had left, gritting his teeth, "Is he your husband?"After seeing the picture Karen sent him during the day, he dropped everything to find out what was going on with Samantha.However, except for the company, he discovered he had no way to contact Samantha and didn't know where she worked.Helpless, he could only wait downstairs.Finally, he waited for her to come back, only to see her passionately kissing another man.God knows how painful he felt at that moment.He wished he could rush over and separate them.Samantha hesitated for a moment, then unhesitatingly pulled Ethan out to use as a shiel
Justin woke up with a sigh.Looking at Karen lying beside him, his expression was calm and indifferent. There was no trace of the panic and guilt from the first time. He sat up slowly, putting on his clothes methodically.Karen was awakened by his slight movements, crawling to the edge of the bed, she embraced him from behind."You're awake? Why don't you sleep a bit longer?" Her voice was hoarse from the intense cries of the previous night.The first time they had been intimate was when Justin was drunk. Last night, he was completely sober. Just this fact alone made her overjoyed.Justin, with an emotionless face, said, "There's still work at the company. I have to go and deal with it."His indifference made Karen's body stiffen for a moment.After buttoning the last button, Justin brushed off her hand and stood up. "Rest well. I'm leavi
The voice recorder continued playing.Anna's voice came again."This is a blank check. Fill in any amount you want, but the condition is that you have to leave my son and grandson.""Mrs. Steele, maybe there's something you haven't understood. I have no interest in Ethan, and I've never thought of marrying him. I just wanted to sleep with him. No need to be responsible after that!""Do you know what 'each takes what they need' means? I want a man, he wants a woman, we satisfy each other's needs. After putting on our clothes, he goes his way, and I go mine. No need for emotional attachments."As her last sentence fell, a bone-chilling coldness spread wildly through the office.Ethan's handsome face turned sinister, his eyes suddenly filled with a bloodthirsty gleam.Anna put away the voice recorder, expressionless, and said,
Samantha angrily drove away from Chelsea Creek. Her hands gripping the steering wheel trembled with anger. She had never been so furious in her entire life. She parked the car by the roadside, went to the pharmacy to buy a contraceptive pill, and returned home to wash herself from head to toe, inside and out. To dispel the frustration in her heart, she immersed herself in work, and within a day, she completed the design drafts for Ellena. Looking at the drafts, she smiled satisfied, and called Ellena. "Miss Ellena, the initial drafts are ready. When do you have time? I can bring them over for you to review." Excitement resonated in Ellena's voice on the other end. "Already finished? How about we meet at Chelsea Creek? Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock?" "..." Samantha's face stiff
