The bank manager had all his muscles seized, as he stared at the bold Gwen before him. His eyes were spitting fire and the little fat on his cheeks trembled. It took all his restraint not to grab Gwen on her shoulders and shake her till she puked. He was eating a sandwich in peace when suddenly, a call from above came in, bursting his eardrums. The people on the other side were so furious and gave him only a few minutes to calm the high-profile guests or it would be his job he loses. So how can he not be anxious? He didn't even know he could beat Olympic records at this age because at the speed he was running, he felt it should be a sensation. Should he arrive after the important guest leaves, he would be finished! "What did you do when I wasn't around?"Gwen outed pitifully. If Mya hadn't seen her earlier outburst, she would’ve thought Gwen was truly the victim here.Anyone who saw her expression might sympathize with her, thinking Lydia and Mya were unreasonable clients. "Bank
Seated in the office, Albert secretly sighed in relief, seeing that Lydia and Mya hadn't made a fuss about the matter earlier. Who said all rich people were unreasonable? "Miss Lydia. As one of our prestigious black members, I will ensure that all requests are handled to the fullest extent. For the matter earlier, we will also compensate you for your troubles." The problem is that he could not make that decision right now, but he will discuss it with his superiors later on. With how much they treasure Lydia, it's estimated that before the end of the day, they would co react her to talk about compensation. Perhaps they'll give her some perks, though he didn't know what more they could give seeing as she was already a Black member. He was also right to ask for a bank manager upon arrival since only they, or those in higher positions could handle matters concerning black members. "So, Miss Lydia. What can I do for you today?""Mr. Albert, no need to be nervous. I'm here for a simpl
Well, even though they were guards used to the cold underworld life, they could still read a room.With tactful eyes, they scattered in different directions, some scouring the villa, knowing what places were potential safety threats. And soon, the two were finally alone. "Alec..."Lydia plunged into his strong arms, never wanting to part with him again. The images of his severed finger and death were still fresh in her mind. Crying at the top of her lungs, she dampened his shirt. Alec gripped her harder, distressed by her pain. Judging from the fact that she changed her mind about Kelvin so suddenly, he already had a hunch that just like him, she too was reborn. But why? Why were they both reborn? Could it be that they died so pitifully in their last lives that the heavens decided to give them another chance to live again? Alec felt there should be a reason why they experienced rebirth. Though he didn't know why, he was thankful the enemy didn't experience the same phenomenon. A
"Am I still in the right place?" Mya murmured questionably, seeing the sudden men in black moving about the villa. "The boss won't be in danger, right?"Rushing toward the front door, Mya only wanted to see Lydia but upon arrival, she was greeted with an eye-full of dog food!It was Lydia and Alec bombarding the scene with their bubbly romance. Can she say she was a little envious? When will she get a boyfriend of her own? Being with Lydia for so long, she already knew Alec. How could she not? Apart from being one of the company's top clients, he was also a very trusted friend of Lydia. But what was this situation? When did their friendship go further? Mya was confused by the sudden development but didn't show it. Today, Lydia had no scheduled office appointments. In the past, Lydia took advantage of this time to stay in her office, working on mountain loads of documents. Now, she finally decided to let her staff take over. After all, as the boss, what was she paying them for if
Bailey felt on edge, her lackeys not knowing what she was thinking. What rich background? Here, people think her family is super rich. But only she knew her parents were ordinary salary men who were also lazy at their jobs, standing in the same position for many years now. They never made progress or even tried putting efforts. They preferred the short cut, always wanting to throw work at newcomers and those they could bully. They raised her, instilling selfish behaviors in her. Despite knowing it was wrong, they preferred the fact that she knew how to take advantage of others and protect herself at all times. Sadly, it backfired.Bailey never blamed herself or took accountability for her actions. Whenever she did something, she would say the same philosophical words, insinuating it wasn't her fault since her parents had caused it all. Even if she killed someone, she would still say the same sentence, not wanting to be punished for something she couldn't control.If anyone should
BRRRM! BRRRM!The silence was broken.Lydia calmly reached her phone, a slight smile on her face after seeing the caller ID.Heh.Look decided to make her presence known."It's Bailey."Bailey?Alec's face became darker. It wasn't a secret he didn't like her. His baby having such a snake by her side all these years has always plagued him.Even though Bailey didn't show up when they were killed, the woman was still an enemy, one who tried to kill Lydia on her own in the last life.She placed an orde
Alec grinned."Baby, you're so bad... But I like it!"Pfft~Hahahahahahahahahahaha~Lydia was full of laughter understanding what Alec meant. Bailey obviously hated talking to her, so she kept the phone call as long and annoying as possible.It got to the point that even she almost felt bad for Bailey. It seems they spoke for a year in Bailey's eyes.
Lydia's call to Harvey yielded similar results to Father Hart's. In fact, when Harvey heard Lydia's original plans, like Father Hart, he too was thankful she didn't make the will earlier.Why?What is the point of keeping 15% while Harvey keeps 45?Are you kidding him? And what was up with giving Camilla 27% while he had 15%?As the only son in this family, he should have more than her! It was his birthright!
