One of them reached out to take the poison and went to another room. Outside, Leonard and Esmeralda immediately followed.Tawny heard footsteps approaching and found the strength to sit up.“Who?” She asked cautiously."Who else, little beauty?" The man squatted beside her."Who are you, and why did you bring me here?""We are just a bunch of reckless people. As for the reason to capture you, wait until you eat this, and you will know.""What do you want to do?" Tawny followed the wall and backed away.The man gradually pressed her closer, forcing her to take the medicine. At this time, Leonard no longer had enough patience; he kicked open the broken window behind him, held the man tightly, and poured the poison into his neck.Esmeralda pulled out the knife she was carrying and stabbed him straight in the heart. In just two short minutes, they had finished him off. Leonard glanced at Esmeralda and quickly ran to Tawny's side."Don't come here, who are you?" Tawny shrank back, her whol
The gloomy sky left a gray color in Tawny Matthews's eyes. She stared at the divorce papers before her, her heart breaking into many pieces.Three years was so short, but also so long. So short that when she closed her eyes, she could see how boring her marriage was. So long that the loneliness and resentment she had endured for many years had piled up like a mountain, weighing down on her panting heart. It turned her into a mobile iceberg, only knowing how to walk, stand, and lie down, but no longer knowing how to cry, laugh, be sad or happy.That period was enough for Tawny to understand that today she was determined to sign the divorce papers, ending the days of suffering and despair.Two streams of hot tears rolled down her cold cheeks, Tawny painfully looked up at everything around the empty room, the place she still considered her home, her nest.But her husband, Leonard, never thought so. To him, this place was hell, a place where he was imprisoned in freedom, a place filled wi
"There was a serious car accident on xxx street this morning." Leonard turned on the TV and saw the news.He sat down on the sofa and heard the announcer say, "The victim is identified as Tawny Matthews. She was dragging a suitcase on the road at that time." Hearing this, Leonard immediately sat up. The camera just turned to the scene of the accident. Around the scene, fresh blood was splattered all over the ground, and a pair of dark glasses was lying in the middle of the road.Those glasses were so familiar.How could this be? Leonard could not imagine that this tragic incident would happen.He immediately asked the staff to find out which hospital Tawny was in, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw a group of reporters."Mr. Leonard, may I ask you what is the relationship between Miss Paige and you?""Mr. Leonard, someone saw your wife being hit by a car twenty minutes ago. She was holding a suitcase. "Did you kick her out of the house?""Mr. Leonard.""Go away."Leonard shoute
In the lobby of Roberts Group, Leonard led a group of people in charge into the lobby. As soon as he entered the door, he noticed the young man sitting in the middle. This person wore gold glasses and a carefully tailored suit. Compared to the sharp Leonard, he looked gentle, elegant, and leisurely.“This must be Mr. John.”Based on the previous documents, Leonard concluded that this was the CEO of Gelex Group in North America.“Mr. Leonard, nice to meet you.”Because the two people's personalities were completely different, the atmosphere between the two was a bit strange when they talked. Leonard was too sharp, while John was too gentle.“Tell me, how much will you pay for this project?” Leonard sat down and threw the documents on the table.“Mr. Leonard, the problem is not the price. The problem is that we want to have the right to buy this project,” John said with a smile.“Buy first, we can give it to you, but the price your company offers is not sincere at all.”The two talked f
“What do you want to do?” After being chased for a while, the police finally spotted the sports car behind them, so they pulled the police car to the side of the road and stopped.“I’m sorry, officer,” Nina said incoherently.Adrian pulled Nina behind him. “I’m sorry, officer, that’s how it is.”Adrian explained everything to the police. Despite being criticized by the police, he still brought Lucas back.“What kind of parents are you to not pay attention to the child.”“I’m sorry for bothering you.” Nina blushed and bowed her head.To avoid traffic jams, the police asked Adrian to drive away immediately.“Lucas, you’re too much. Why are you running around alone? Do you know how worried your uncle Adrian and I are?” Nina began to scold Lucas.“I’m sorry.” Lucas silently bowed his head. “Lucas won’t do it again. Mom, you don’t have to be angry, okay? And Uncle Adrian too.”“It’s okay, Lucas. It’s best if you don’t do it again. You’re still young. It’s dangerous to go around alone and g
"It's okay. I like this job." Nina smiled like a blooming sunflower, making people feel full of sunshine.The shop owner nodded with satisfaction. "It can be done right now. This bouquet of forget-me-nots is for Roberts Group, remember to sign for it carefully." Nina took the bouquet and walked towards Roberts Group."Excuse me, do you know this person?" Nina pulled the guard to point at her notebook and asked."Leonard Roberts. This is our general manager." The guard widened his eyes, finding it hard to believe that there was someone who didn't know the CEO of Roberts Group. The guard conveniently took out a magazine cover, on which was a picture of Leonard, a handsome face that made everyone admire.Nina let out a soft cry, suddenly feeling a little scared. How could the first day of work be so hard? But no matter what, she couldn't give up halfway.Nina held the large bouquet and walked into the first-floor area."Ma'am, please wait a moment. Who are you looking for?" She was about
“Are you awake?” The gentle and soft voice sounded like a blessing from heaven. Nina opened her eyes and saw a strange young man sitting in front of her hospital bed.“I…. where is this?”“This is the hospital. I almost bumped into you just now, so the CEO ordered me to take you to the hospital. Moreover, the CEO said that you are not allowed to come to the company to send flowers anymore.” The man’s words filled Nina’s stomach with resentment.“Nina, you are really good. You can make Leonard sign the receipt.” The flower shop owner's eyes lit up with admiration. Although Nina had gotten Leonard's signature, she also encountered many difficulties.“Do you know why I still can't find a flower delivery person? Because most of my bills are from Roberts Group and Leonard, as you can see..." The salesman said softly. After Nina heard that, she felt scared all day yesterday. If that unexpected event hadn't happened, she would have returned home in a mess. Why is that CEO so arrogant?"Nina
"Nina. What's wrong with you?" The flower shop owner saw Nina limping, and he hurriedly ran over to help her."I'm sorry, boss. I'm a little uncomfortable and want to go home first."Although he didn't know what happened, seeing the tears on Nina's face, he didn't ask much. Turning back, he handed her a bouquet of sunflowers: "Cheer you up a bit.""If it's work, thank you, I'm fine." Nina laughed loudly. She took this bouquet of sunflowers and walked out onto the street.The weather was very good, the temperature was moderate, and the bad mood from before was quickly washed away by this warm air. Putting on the phone's earphones, there was harmonica music, it was her favorite sound. If it was before, when she encountered such a thing, her first reaction would be to call Adrian to complain. But now she wouldn't do that anymore because she didn't want to live off Adrian, she wanted to be able to build her world. So when Adrian wanted to find a maid, she didn't need a maid.Nina found a

“Why are you here? Is Shanley okay? Have you found Tawny?”Looking at his father’s expectant eyes, Emery didn’t know how to answer.“Dad, Shanley is fine and has returned. We followed the plan to bankrupt the Tsviliov Group and the Roberts Group together, but now we’ve lost our way. Should we continue?”“Hey, I just hope the Matthews family and you guys are safe now. This result is my karma, I don’t blame you, but what about Tawny?”“Dad, we found Tawny.” Emery still didn’t know about Tawny being thrown into the sea. “She’s with Shanley now.”“Really? That’s great. When will you bring her here to see me?” After saying that, Prosper also had tears in his eyes. “I’m sorry.”The father and son talked until late at night. When Emery got out of prison, he felt much more relieved. But at least he had to take down the Roberts Group. Listening to his father tell the old story, it turned out that when Leonard married Tawny, the Roberts Group used 20% of the shares as a dowry, but later, when t
At a high-class restaurant.“Why hasn’t Shanley arrived yet?” Behind the window curtain, the middle-aged man frowned secretly.“Since returning to the country, you seem a little impatient.”“I can’t be patient, I’m afraid something unexpected will happen. Now the Roberts kid has helped the Roberts Group out of trouble. If we don’t act quickly, we might fail.”“Don’t worry. We’ll just quietly observe the changes. Furthermore, I also received a very new piece of news: the hardware that was lost five years ago has been found.”“Where is it?”“I heard it’s on a girl.”---At a secret research institute.“Who are you? Why did you bring me here?” After a few electric shocks, Tawny finally woke up. “You are our important guest.” The nurses spoke through the mask.“Call my family to come pick me up, please, I'm Tawny, my brother is Shanley." Tawny spread her arms wide, but no one touched her."Miss, you can rest assured here. When we have enough time, we will take you home." After saying that
A person secretly came to the testing site. "What do you want to do now?" The foreign man in the white coat asked. Standing in front of him was a man in black with a fierce face."Doctor John, calm down and don't rush. We are waiting for the old man's orders, but before that, you must keep our secret." The man in black said softly."If we hand this woman over to the military now, we can earn a large sum of money. Why wait until that old man is about to die?"The man in black did not say anything. After a long while, he whispered, "This is our family matter, you don't need to worry."The doctor shrugged and walked out into the hallway. As soon as he left, the man in black immediately called Leonard's grandfather."Sir, we don't have much time left, you should make a decision quickly.""Don't touch that girl." The old man said seriously, "You must protect her well."Leonard looked at his grandfather with a slightly annoyed expression.The old man hung up the phone and said to Leonard, "
"Your granddaughter-in-law," Mrs. Roberts said respectfully."Huh? My granddaughter-in-law, I can't wait to see her.""She fell into the sea," Leonard said sadly.Mrs. Roberts was also unusually surprised."Fallen into the sea?" the old man muttered as if remembering something. "Oh, I remember." But just as his grandfather was about to speak, Mr. Roberts suddenly turned around.Mr. Roberts saw his father, surprised and happy at the same time. "Dad. Why are you here?""If there's nothing, can't I come?" The old man sat down. "Isn't it because of the White Tiger Gang?"As soon as he heard the White Tiger Gang, Mr. Roberts's expression changed."Thirty years ago, I handed over the Dragon Blade Gang to you. What have you been doing all this time?"Leonard immediately understood that the Dragon Blade Gang did not belong to the Roberts family."Dad, I'm guilty." Kenneth, who was always hot-tempered, could lower his head."I didn't come here today to make you atone for your sins. I came to s
At a high-class restaurant."Sir, I've already informed all the members. They've already arranged this place. Don't worry.""I heard that the Matthews family kid has already completed Plan A?" The middle-aged man pulled back the thick and heavy curtain."That's just a rumor. If we want to know if it's true, we'll have to wait until we meet him.""You don't need to contact him. He'll come here himself. The Matthews brothers are not ordinary people.""Yes."After a moment of silence, the middle-aged man asked again: "How is she now? When can I meet her?"“She is very healthy, there are still some unfinished business, I suggest you do not rush to see her.”The middle-aged man did not say anything more.---The high-level meeting in the Roberts Group meeting room.“Do you have any opinions on the current situation of the Roberts Group?” Leonard asked.“General Manager, I feel that we are surrounded by enemies. Plan A has caused us too much damage. It is like pus coming out of a wound.”“T
“General Manager.” The assistant was so scared that he couldn’t speak clearly. He didn’t know what he had said wrong. “Ah, I’ll tell them to leave immediately. Yes, the boss wants me to tell you that you should consider and monitor the current situation of the company, and Aaron's situation is very good." The assistant hurriedly said, hoping to distract Leonard.He picked up his injured leg and got into the car without changing his expression. Esmeralda followed the assistant into another car."Miss Tawny, are you okay?" The assistant didn't realize that Esmeralda was not Tawny.Esmeralda opened the car window and took out a cigarette.The assistant looked at her in surprise, thinking, How could the gentle Miss Tawny become so stylish in just a few days."What's wrong? Does it look different? Miss Tawny was probably eaten by the fish, as you said."The assistant was sweating profusely, so scared that he couldn't speak. What's wrong with Miss Tawny? No wonder the CEO was so angry just
Canada Victoria Villa."Sir, the plane tickets are ready; we can leave at any time." Ezekiel handed over the plane tickets. In the darkness, the middle-aged man did not reach out to receive them, but only sighed in relief."Sir, what's the matter?""How long has it been since I left this room in this house?""It's been many years." The butler's voice lowered, "But sir, you don't have to worry, I've prepared everything."The middle-aged man finally turned his face towards the faint light, his entire face covered with a special mask.He raised his right hand and instinctively touched his heart. "I should have died 30 years ago.""Sir, don't say that, it's all their fault, it has nothing to do with you.""There is no absolute right or wrong in this world, the important thing is to look at your attitude." The man took the plane ticket. “What do you think our chances of winning this time are?”He casually picked up a photo on the table, it was a beautiful girl around 17, 18 years old, wear
“Of course not. After Lucas was with Tawny, I felt that Adrian might have adopted Lucas, but only he knew the truth. I can guarantee that the child is not his and Tawny’s child.”Leonard clenched his fists, damn it, Adrian dared to tarnish Tawny’s honor.---On the yacht.The man in black hurriedly walked over and whispered a few words into Mr. Roberts’ ear. His face immediately became heavy. Why did things become so complicated? Why did the investment in the military suddenly stop? What was the reason for this?He immediately went into the 3D cabin, the entire screen opened, and a man in full military uniform appeared on it.“What happened?” He asked in a low voice.“Mr. Roberts, we suspect that Plan A has been leaked, so we suspect that its profits are not as good as before, so we will stop funding the Roberts Group.”“Revealed? Impossible. Even my nephew doesn’t know the whole plan, so how could it be leaked?”“But in fact, this kind of thing happened. Not only was it leaked, but t
