Samantha returned home with a pale face.
Seeing her, Yurika rushed over, preparing to ask about the situation with the design drafts. However, noticing Samantha's pale face, her heart sank suddenly.
Afraid that Samantha would feel upset, Yurika patted her shoulder and consoled, "If the design drafts didn't pass, it's because they don't appreciate it. You are amazing. If not this time, there will be another chance."
Samantha quietly looked at her, her eyes dark and unclear.
Yurika felt a shiver as she was scrutinized by that gaze.
She had never seen such eyes before.
Too sharp.
It was like looking at a completely unfamiliar person.
Why did Samantha look at her like this?
Samantha noticed her expression and withdrew the scrutinizing gaze. She murmured, "My design draft was stolen by Suzy."

Ethan didn't let the matter rest and continued, "Mother should know that I hate being deceived and played for a fool, especially when someone is scheming behind my back doing things that shouldn't see the light of day."Anna's face turned pale. Her body trembled with anger.Ethan continued, "You have half an hour to suppress public opinion. You should know that if I take action, you won't be able to bear the consequences."Anna gritted her teeth and asked, "What kind of love potion did Samantha give you to make you infatuated with her like this?"Ethan raised his lips, a smile that didn't reach his eyes. His low and sinister voice echoed, "I'm not interested in her. I just don't like being manipulated."Seeing him deny, Anna still didn't believe it, suspiciously looking at him, "Do you really not like her?"She knew her son well. He had always disdained lying
Ethan stood at the door of the infusion room, watching Samantha, whose face was pale, and his heart inexplicably tightened. He wanted to go in but hesitated. Stood at the door, indecisive. At this moment, Wendy, who had been taking care of Samantha all along, suddenly received a phone call. "Lila, something has come up in the company. I need to rush back to handle it. Do you have any friends here? I'll give them a call to come and take care of you." They were work partners. They knew nothing about each other's private lives. Samantha slowly opened her eyes, her voice hoarse due to sickness, "Is it about me?" "Uh..." Wendy hesitated for a moment, then nodded in acknowledgment, "Yes! The Miller family is a prominent family, and this matter has indeed caused quite a stir! With our company's strength, we can't compete with them
Samantha leaned against the back of the chair.At first, everything seemed normal.However, as the drip rate increased, she suddenly felt her stomach churning, nauseated, and on the verge of vomiting.Noticing her face, which had just gained a rosy hue, turning pale again, and her forehead covered in tiny beads of sweat, Ethan immediately asked nervously, "What's wrong with you?"Samantha didn't want to bother with him, so she forcefully suppressed the nausea and shook her head.Ethan's eyes turned ice-cold in an instant."If you want your daughter to become an orphan, then keep acting tough."Thinking of Charlotte and Alexander, and thinking of the internal traitor beside her, Samantha's blood turned cold, as if soaking in icy water.Ethan was right. Her life was not important. But she absolutely couldn't let Charlot
Samantha lay on the bed, feeling utterly weak.Suddenly, her phone, placed on the bedside table, rang.The incoming call displayed an unfamiliar number.She hesitated for a moment, then answered and murmured, "Hello.""Sammie, are you sick?"The voice was deep, hoarse, and filled with deep concern.Samantha, upon hearing the voice, couldn't help but shudder.It was actually Justin.She instinctively thought of hanging up the phone.As if sensing her intention, Justin urgently said, "Sammie, don't hang up. Didn't you say we can't be a couple, but we can still be friends."Samantha hesitated for a moment but ultimately did not hang up the phone.Justin asked, "I heard about your situation. Are
This is absolutely not her illusion, and definitely not one person.Certainly, it's two people.Because the Alexander that just entered the elevator was wearing a set of white affordable casual wear, with cartoon slippers he bought at the feet.And now, the Alexander that came out from behind the rockery is wearing a white T-shirt and gray jeans, with white running shoes at the feet.Seemingly simple, but very expensive.From her understanding of luxury goods, this set costs at least seven figures.She knows Samantha too well.Absolutely can't afford such expensive clothes.She stabilized her mind, pretended to be calm, walked over and patted his shoulder. "Alexander, what are you doing alone here so late!"Noah shook his whole body and turned
Due to illness, Samantha has been looking listless these past few days.Even Charlotte wither along with her.In the kindergarten, Charlotte sits on a small stool, facing the lollipop handed by her male classmate Henley without any interest.Seeing that even the lollipop couldn't spark any interest in Charlotte, Henley, concerned, asked, "Charlotte, what's wrong? Why are you so down? Are you sick?"Henley really likes Charlotte.From the first day Charlotte transferred to the school, he noticed this chubby and beautiful little girl.Knowing that she likes to eat, he brings her snacks in various styles every day.In the past, every time she received something to eat, she would happily call him "Brother Henley."He felt really sweet inside.Charlotte shook her head, "No, it's my mom who is sick. I'm worried about my mom."Henley quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, your mom will get better soon."Charlotte lowered her little head, still not in the mood.Henley turned his eyes and sudden
After ending the call with Suzy, Karen secretly opened Yurika's suitcase, skillfully entering the password. Although Yurika deliberately avoided her every time she opened the suitcase, Karen still managed to uncover her secret. With a ‘bip’ sound, the combination lock opened.Karen carefully searched inside and found a photo at the bottom, beneath the clothes. It was a picture of Yurika and Justin. Written in red pen on the back of the photo were the letters 'Y (Heart) J’.She had always known that Yurika was secretly keeping such a photo because, like Yurika, she had loved and lost before. Even though Yurika never admitted her feelings for Justin, Karen could see it in her eyes.Seeing this photo, Karen's eyes narrowed slightly. Thinking about the fact that the man both Samantha and Yurika admired would soon marry her, a sense of satisfaction filled her eyes.She took out the photo
The repeated deception made Samantha completely unable to believe her."So, out of jealousy, you conspired with Suzy to deal with me?"Upon hearing her words, Yurika was stunned.She hurriedly shook her head and denied, "No, although I have many shortcomings, my only virtue is loyalty. Even if you killed me, I would never betray my best friend."Samantha looked at her with disappointment. "You still want to play innocent. I witnessed Suzy calling you. When my initial draft was stolen, you were quick to shift the blame onto Karen. But Karen defended you."Yurika anxiously said, "Samantha, listen to me. Although I don't have evidence, I'm a hundred percent sure that it was Karen who did it. Karen has long been colluding with Suzy. Although Sarah and Suzy were the masterminds of the events back then, Karen definitely couldn't be unrelated."When Samantha suddenl
