The sun penetrated into the conference room, but it could not warm up the cold hearts of the two people in the room.Their eyes met, but there was only coldness and distance in Jeanette's eyes. The intimacy and affection they had had were gone. Her eyes seemed like she was looking at an enemy, and her cold indifference pierced right through Damon’s heart."If I told you that what you saw at the seaside villa that day was a misunderstanding, would you believe me?"Damon's eyes were full of ser

The child was holding a piece of fried chicken in his chubby little hands, enjoying every bite. His little lips were stained with oil from the fried chicken.The little boy looked very satisfied. The man and woman stood aside and watched as the little boy enjoyed his treat. They smiled gently.This beautiful scene was so enchanting that one couldn’t bear to turn away from it. They were clearly a happy family.Damon was taken aback. His chest hurt once again.He remembered that Felix loved eating fast food like this. Kids probably liked this sort of thing.Honestly, the components in fast food were not healthy, so Jeanette would only let Felix enjoy fast food twice a month. However, the two rare chances were Felix’s happiest moments.He and Jeanette were just like the couple behind the window. They took Felix to a fast food restaurant too.Damon hated the noisy atmosphere in the restaurant, but Felix loved it. Thus, he was willing to go with him. He and Jeanette would look at eac

The assistant smiled evilly. Her eyes resembled a gossipmonger.Mimi blushed furiously. Other people may not have understood her, but she had known this assistant for many years. They had spent so much time together, day and night. Of course, Mimi could understand what the assistant meant by “other activities”.‘She’s an open pervert!’She had taken advantage of Zeke’s lack of comprehension and cracked a subtle joke. This girl had the nerve to say anything now!Mimi awkwardly shot a look at the assistant and turned carefully towards Zeke. Luckily, he didn’t seem to hear her and continued happily holding Mimi's hand and nodding his head.“Alright, I understand. Don’t worry. I’ll make sure Mimi gets home safely.”He smiled. His face was filled with bliss and gentleness as if Mimi were the most beautiful thing in the world.Mimi’s heart softened. Actually, she should feel blessed to be with a man like him. After all, she might not find anyone else who’d treat her this well or a mor

Zeke obviously picked up on the despondent look on Mimi’s face and couldn’t help feeling sore about it. He knew that she couldn’t let go of Elias just yet, but seeing how much she cared still made him feel as if someone had punched him in the chest.Zeke took a deep breath and tried his best to display a gentle smile. “Mimi, we can go somewhere else if you’re uncomfortable.”Mimi was taken aback. She lifted her head, and the hurt in the depths of Zeke’s eyes pierced her heart. Only then did she return to her senses.‘Oh God, what was I doing? Zeke asked me out for dinner, so how could I have lost control and stared at Elias? And Zeke noticed it too. He must be devastated.’Mimi closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying her best to calm down.‘I need to stay calm. Even if it’s fake, I need to act like I don’t care.’“No need, I’m not uncomfortable at all. He no longer matters. If I bump into him, so be it. There’s no need to deliberately avoid him.” Despite her words, her hea

Mimi took a deep breath. She maintained a smile on her face, despite the pain in her chest.“You must be joking, Mr. Burnham. Zeke and I are doing very well together. Zeke is particularly gentle with me, and I’ve never met a nicer guy. I believe that if I do marry him, I will live the rest of my life in bliss.”Mimi’s words earned an appreciative smile from Zeke. His heart softened. This was his first time hearing this from her.‘That’s more than I need. All I need is confirmation that I’ll be the one to give her happiness, and I can keep holding on.’Elias, on the other hand, was upset. He clenched his fists angrily underneath the table and frowned.‘Is she really that happy? To be with Zeke Russo? Is she really that proud to be with a big-time director?’Anger rose from the depths of his chest. Elias had no idea what was wrong with him. He felt sore as if he had been made to swallow a lemon.He even wanted to pounce on her and ask how she could have forgotten him so quickly. S
