Chapter 270

Author: Where is Spring
Maria demanded Richard in a cold voice.

Richard didn't dare to say anything more. He only picked up a few pieces of meat and placed them on Jonathan's plate.

In a low voice, he said, "If you don't want to talk anymore, then forget it. I was out of line. Just eat. I won't disturb you anymore."

Maria ignored him, lowered her head, and hid all her bubbling emotions deep into herself.

Seeing Richard was bad enough. Seeing Jonathan made it even harder for her to keep her temper in check.

Out of everyone, Jonathan had hurt her the most.

Her own child had betrayed her step by step, called another woman mother, and had humiliated her again and again.

If she had to say who disgusted her most, other than Richard, it would be Jonathan.

Jonathan was her own flesh and blood. She had raised him and poured all her effort into him. His betrayal was the one thing she couldn't accept. Even now, she felt no stir of sympathy for him at all despite knowing he repented in front of a tombstone for s

    Maria stood up in exhaustion as she heard the knock on her door. She went to open the door, only to find Richard standing there after he had left earlier.Maria frowned, but before she could speak, Richard started first. "You already found out what I did to Cameron, right?"Maria paused for a moment."If you know, then stop seeing him." Richard's tone was heavy-handed and controlling.Maria's eyes narrowed, her voice cold. "If you plan to hurt everyone around me just to force me back to your side, you're making a big mistake. I won't give in. I'll only grow to hate you more."At that, Richard's lips turned in a faint smile. "It doesn't matter. Hate me if you want, but I can't stand anyone being near you. I don't even know what to do anymore."He smiled faintly, but his eyes were filled with a dense grief, as if he had fallen into complete despair. He continued, stressing each word, "I wanted to take things slowly, too. To wait and see if one day, you'd willingly come back to

    Maria had no intention of guessing what was going through Cameron's mind. She took her cello, sat down in front of him, and began to play the piece.They both became quiet as they listened to the piece, their faces carrying a hint of sorrow and a reluctance to give up.The living room was very quiet, filled only with the sound of the cello.Then, a knock at the door shattered the calm.Maria frowned, but refused to stop playing. She had promised to perform this piece for Cameron, and she wasn't going to give up halfway through. She acted as if she hadn't heard the knock and continued.Outside, when Richard got no response, he entered the passcode and opened the door.The scene in the living room made him freeze. His eyes went cold at once, sharp and full of murderous intent. He clenched his fists as he walked toward them step by step, veins popping out on his forehead from the effort of holding himself back.Even so, Maria didn't react.Only when Richard came right up to them

    It was for that very reason that the Shaw Group had been able to run safely and steadily for so many years. They owed it entirely to Richard's hacking skills.Even so, Trent didn't believe that Cameron Lane truly was frightened or intimidated. This was his territory, after all. He was deeply rooted here for years.As Trent was thinking this, the phone suddenly rang. Richard picked it up. "How's Lane Group doing over there? Has Cameron taken the initiative to contact me?""The Lane Group has hired a large number of hackers to deal with their system problems. As for Mr. Lane himself..." The man in charge of tailing Cameron gulped, suddenly unsure how to continue.Richard's eyes darkened. His voice turned cold. "What about him?"The man decided to simply bite the bullet. "He went to see Marina. The two of them are in her apartment right now." After listening, Richard's expression gradually became colder. His hands slowly clenched into a fist, an icy glint in his eyes."Good. Ver

    Just as Cameron was about to have Richard escorted out, Richard finally spoke. "She's my wife. No one can take her away from me, not even you."Cameron leaned back in his chair and stared at Richard coldly. "I'm not Hector, and I actually have the power to compete with you. Besides… In her eyes, you're already a loser. You're the one at fault. Compared to me, you have no advantage at all."Richard narrowed his eyes. "We have a son together."Cameron let out a short chuckle, as though he had just heard the funniest thing in the world. "A son? You mean that ungrateful brat who turned his back on his own mother?""You…!" Richard was momentarily silent. For the first time, he felt the sting of being unable to defend himself. He had to admit that he was indeed panicking right now."Enough. We both know who she really is and what she's been through. No one makes the same mistake twice, so save your breath," Cameron said.He glanced at his staff.The staff member stepped forward

    After hearing that Richard wanted to see Cameron, Trent immediately realized how serious things were becoming. Richard hadn't even managed to win Maria back, and now, another suitor had appeared?This made things even more problematic. He sent the meeting request right away.Meanwhile, Lane Group seemed to have been waiting specifically for Richard's request. His appointment was approved instantly.That same evening, Richard went to the Lane Group's headquarters. As soon as he arrived, he saw a figure already waiting there to receive him.Richard narrowed his eyes and sat across from Cameron."Mr. Lane, you sure know how to get things done. My issue is with Onyx Group, but you got involved without being asked. There aren't many people in this world who meddle in others' business without a good reason, and I have nothing against you. Why are you doing this?"Richard's presence filled the room, but Cameron didn't back down.Cameron spread his hands and said, "Well, I'm sorry a

    Maria turned away and left without looking back.After bidding Richard goodbye, a sudden relief washed over her.Trent sat on the couch in the corner of the room, focused on the paperwork. Maria had been completely unaware that he had been there at all. Only after she left did he look up at Richard in disbelief."Why is she acting like she no longer cares about Hector? What's happening here?" he asked.Richard regained his composure and glanced at him coolly. "I don't know. Find out who she met before coming here."Trent sighed helplessly. "Can you stop pressuring her for a while? Forcing her to be with you like this won't help your relationship. You'll only push her further away."Richard’s gaze hardened. He glared at Trent and warned, "I know what I'm doing. Just do what I said and find out who she met."Trent had no choice but to leave with a nod, knowing that Richard wouldn't listen to him anyway.After Trent left, Richard turned his attention back to the task at hand.
