Eric, I'm about to tie the knot. Let's cut ties for good. Here's $50,000 on this card as a token of appreciation. Please respect my decision and refrain from reaching out in the future.Eric took a drag from his cigarette and exhaled towards Amelia. "I don't want your money, Amelia. I just want you."While Amelia was getting ready, she remarked irritably, "You know, Eric, I'm entering into the Dickson family, and you can't provide the happiness I seek. If you truly care about me, don't obstruct my path to happiness."Eric sprung to his feet, embracing her once more. "I won't stand in your way, Amelia. I won't hinder your marriage into the Anderson family. I just hope we can keep our connection. Even if you're married, feel free to reach out...""No chance! That would only put my life in danger!" Amelia rejected his desires outright."But, Amelia..."Before anything else could unfold, Amelia had already finished getting herself together and hurriedly left the sushi bar.In contrast to

"Daniel, I really can't handle any more drinks...""Mandy, are you drunk?" Daniel’s voice carried a hint of ambiguity. Drawing closer, he gently embraced Amanda's head, allowing her to rest on his shoulder. Amanda’s mind felt hazy, her body overcome with heat and weakness. Despite others socialising nearby, no one dared to intervene or inquire."Mandy..." Daniel softly held Amanda’s hand. Before he could take any action, someone seized Daniel, gripping the back of his collar. Startled, Daniel turned to look, only to be met with a powerful punch to the face."Ah..." Daniel groaned as his glasses were knocked away, blood spurting from his nose. Shocked onlookers approached to witness the scene. Amanda, still in a daze, attempted to stand and intervene, but her drunken state kept her on the sofa. "Dickson...""Bang!" Dickson, still seething with anger, forcefully pulled Daniel up from the sofa and landed another powerful punch."Why did you hit him?" The security guards stepped forward o

"I appreciate it, but I'm fine, thank you," Amanda courteously declined. Despite the pain in her abdomen and throughout her body, she hastily departed from the villa. Twenty minutes later, Betty arrived to pick her up.As Amanda entered the front passenger seat, she anxiously inquired, "Betty, where's Daniel?""Daniel and David have already returned to Sweden! Before they left, Daniel was very angry. He mentioned wanting to terminate the collaboration with Terry's Company," Betty relayed.Amanda, feeling the weight of Dickson's actions, held her forehead. "Give me the phone!""Here you go," Betty handed over the phone.Amanda quickly dialled the number, but the constant beeping indicated that Daniel had turned off his phone. "Miss Amanda, Daniel is probably on the plane and can't answer the phone! Why don't you try calling later?" Betty suggested."Ah!" Amanda sighed in frustration, leaning helplessly against the seat. "Miss Amanda, should I take you to the office now, or would you pr

"Mr. Dickson..."Dickson silenced Betty with a gesture, signalling her not to disturb Amanda. Frightened, Betty nodded hastily. Betty then pointed to the flight attendant behind him, indicating for Betty to follow the flight attendant to the first-class cabin at the front of the plane.Uneasily glancing at Amanda, Betty inwardly complained, realising that the "lunatic" Amanda had mentioned was Mr. Dickson himself. However, she didn't dare to offend Dickson. Betty stood up quietly and followed the flight attendant to the first-class cabin.Meanwhile, Dickson carefully took Betty’s seat. After dozing for a while, Amanda awoke to find her limbs sore and numb. The cramped seats in the economy class provided little room to stretch her legs. In a daze, Amanda sensed someone gently turning her head.Subsequently, Amanda found herself resting her head on a broad and sturdy shoulder. Initially assuming it was Betty, Amanda didn't pay much attention. However, she discovered that this shoulder w

They engaged in a struggle as they exited the airport. Suddenly, Dickson spotted Andrew.At that moment, Andrew anxiously stood outside the gate, watching.Dickson's face contorted with malice. Seizing Amanda, he pulled her into his arms and forcefully kissed her.Due to Dickson's height, Amanda's neck bent uncomfortably. "Ah..."Amanda desperately tried to push Dickson away, but her struggles only seemed to tighten his grip.The commotion caught the attention of everyone at the airport. Betty, terrified, remained frozen.Observing the scene, Andrew's eyes filled with rage, and he rushed towards the gate."Dickson, release Amanda!"Regrettably, Andrew found himself obstructed by a fence, preventing him from reaching Dickson. Otherwise, he would have swiftly approached and delivered a forceful punch.After a few moments, Dickson finally released Amanda. Both their lips were red and swollen from the intense encounter."Dickson, have you lost your mind?!" Amanda cried out, a mix of anger
