Chapter 845

작가: Love Berries
The lead officer hadn’t always treated him like this.

But lately, Hector had started noticing something was off.

It felt like, no matter what he did, the lead officer was always guarded around him.

Not only that, Hector also realized that the major cases never seemed to come his way anymore.

Why was that?

Was the lead officer afraid he might surpass him or maybe threaten his position?

Hector narrowed his eyes, connecting the dots from their earlier conversation.

The more he thought about it, the more it made sense.

He let out a long breath.

To be honest, he never had those kinds of thoughts to begin with.

But the adult world was complicated.

Even without desire for it, reaching a certain point meant others would begin pushing in that direction.

The pressure would come, the expectations would rise, regardless of personal intention.

That was just how things worked.

Willing or not, the outside world had a way of pressing down, always backed by countless justifications.

Hector shook his h

  • Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO   Chapter 1620

    The woman he’d loved for years was now lying in the same bed with him.All he had to do was turn his head, and her soft face would be right there.She was so close he could kiss her.For any man, that would be impossible to resist. And for Edwin, it was torture.Knowing how much she’d been through that night only made his chest ache more.“Don’t go… stay with me, please?”The words were soft, half-asleep, but they hit him like a jolt. His heart skipped a beat.Any thought of leaving vanished instantly. After hearing that plea, how could he possibly walk away?He exhaled quietly, surrendering.“Alright,” he murmured near her ear. “I’ll stay. I’m not going anywhere tonight.”At those words, Yvonne’s furrowed brows relaxed, though her eyes remained shut, her breathing even.Watching her, Edwin felt something strange stir inside him. Was it possible his voice alone could calm her like that?A faint smile tugged at his lips as he drew her closer, resting his chin gently atop her head.That

    Otherwise, he honestly didn’t know how he would’ve handled the night.So many reporters were already watching her every move.If anyone caught a photo of this, it would turn into a scandal overnight.And with her still filming a reality show, any negative attention could ruin her reputation in an instant.Thinking of that, Edwin quickened his pace, holding Yvonne tighter in his arms.He gently laid her across the back seat, making sure she was comfortable before getting into the driver’s seat and heading home.Luckily, he owned several properties in Bustin City, any one of which was safe enough that no journalist could trace.But just as they arrived and he carried her inside, Yvonne suddenly stirred awake.She staggered straight to the couch and began tugging at her clothes.“It’s so hot… didn’t you turn on the air conditioner?” she mumbled.Startled, Edwin hurried to switch it on. But when he turned back and saw her fumbling with her dress, he rushed over to stop her.“Hey, don’t—sto

    Edwin glanced down at the still-drunken Yvonne and sighed softly before scooping her up into his arms.“Charge it,” he said curtly.Balancing her against his chest, he reached into his pocket with one hand and tossed a black card onto the table.For a moment, the waiter didn’t quite process what he was seeing until his eyes landed on the card. Then they widened in disbelief.“Y-yes, of course, sir. Please wait just a moment.”He’d known from their clothes and demeanor that these two weren’t ordinary people, but this was another level.An unlimited black card, tossed onto the table as casually as loose change.His hands trembled slightly as he picked it up, hardly daring to breathe while running it through the POS machine. For a fleeting moment, life felt almost perfect.When he handed the card back, he did it with both hands, bowing slightly. “Thank you for your patronage, sir. We look forward to serving you again.”Edwin gave him a brief look but said nothing more.Cradling Yvonne in

    She clutched Edwin’s shirt tightly, her voice trembling between anger and heartbreak. “Why won’t you just give me a chance? I’m the one who’s truly right for you! Why are you treating me like this? Don’t you care what people will think about us?”“What’s so great about Aurora anyway? She’s fooled you. Can’t you see it? She’s calculating and manipulative, not at all what you think she is.“Lucas, can’t you just look at me… just once?”Her voice cracked, and tears streamed down her cheeks, glistening under the dim bar lights.Edwin’s chest tightened as he watched her crumble. He’d stayed by her side for years, quietly and faithfully, so seeing her like this tore at him in ways he couldn’t admit aloud.But what could he say now? She was draped over him and trembling, clinging as if her life depended on it. He sat frozen, his body stiff, unsure what to do.Still, he tried to break through the haze clouding her mind. “Yvonne, look at me. Look carefully and see who I am. You’ve got the wron

    “I don’t even know why,” Edwin said with a faint laugh. “I guess it just came out naturally when I was talking to you.”Hearing that, Yvonne let out a teary laugh. “Alright, enough talking. Sit down and drink with me.”She waved at the waiter to refill their glasses, and the two clinked them together before downing the liquor in one go.The waiter exchanged a glance with his colleague. There were plenty of drinkers in this bar, but people who drank like this—bold, reckless, and unflinching—were rare. He’d never seen anything quite like it.After a few more rounds, Yvonne’s head was spinning, her mind a fog of alcohol.She squinted at the man across from her, his features faintly resembling Lucas’, and her vision blurred. “Lucas?”Edwin froze, eyes widening in disbelief. Did she just mistake him for that guy?For some reason, a bad feeling rose in his chest. “Yvonne, you—”Before he could finish, Yvonne burst into tears, collapsing into his arms.“Lucas, I knew you still cared about me

    Otherwise, he would never have said those things.Hearing Yvonne’s words, a dull ache spread in Edwin’s chest. He hadn’t expected her to think of herself that way—to believe that in a man’s eyes, a woman could only ever be a tool or a source of profit.If that was truly how she saw the world, then wasn’t that far too sad?Edwin had always thought of himself as a ruthless man in business—sharp, decisive, even cold at times. But at least he held to his principles. He never let anyone dictate what he believed.Yet hearing Yvonne speak like this made him feel as though everything he once believed had been shaken.Her view of love and worth was just too bleak.He sighed quietly. “Yvonne, what happened to you? When did you become like this?“Don’t you know that real love still exists in this world?”She laughed bitterly. “Love? Do you really think I know what that feels like? Have I ever even seen it? Or had it, for that matter?”The sharp questions came one after another, and then she tip
