Leonard suddenly fell silent. He took out a pair of red high heels from inside and approached Nina, signaling, "Try them on and see if they fit?"Nina tried her feet inside the shoes but found they didn't fit, so she shook her head."I think they fit." He put the shoes back in the shoe box.Nina noticed that Leonard liked these red shoes very much, so she couldn't help but ask, "Are those your favorite shoes?""No. They're the most ordinary ones." Leonard held the shoes carefully and thoughtfully, "But no one can fit them."Nina looked at the shoes, they looked very much like those of a high school student."Too small, like they're for a little girl.""Really? Do you know what these shoes are called?""Do shoes have names too?" Nina didn't understand."They're called Meeting Shoes. One of the shoes in the Cinderella line." Leonard rarely smiled gently.Nina seemed to understand a little, so she said: "If you met a little girl at that time, that girl would have grown up after so many y
“Really? Can I call you Hatice?” Nina asked happily.“Of course, if you don’t hate me, we can still be good friends.”“Of course not.” Nina didn’t have any friends here who could be friends with Hatice, so of course, she was very willing. Moreover, for Hatice, she always felt like she and she had been friends for a long time.“I heard from Lucas that you’ve encountered something unpleasant recently. If you need my help, you definitely can’t be polite.” Hatice said sincerely.Nina touched her hair and smiled habitually. “Thank you, Hatice. If I need you, I’ll look for you.”“Nina.” Hatice felt like she was in a daze. Every time she saw Nina, she thought of Tawny. “Where is your home?”“Happy Street.”“No, I’m talking about your parents.”Nina looked at Hatice with a puzzled expression. “Do you still feel like I’m like Tawny? My parents are Americans, I grew up in Vancouver, Canada.”“How do you know?” Hatice felt like she was shouting at the world. How could two people give her the sam
“Ah, Nina. My daughter can't do it, Maybe you have to come back again." The flower shop owner is called Nina.When Nina felt that the guests and the press were about to arrive, she suddenly became anxious and hurriedly ordered the workers to quickly rearrange the position of the plants, then prepared to leave. When she left, she suddenly met Leonard.She saw him wearing the latest suit, his hands behind his back. His eyebrows were furrowed, his eyes were cold, and his lips were tightly pursed for no apparent reason. Looking at him like this, she didn't know why she felt he was more childish. Nina hurriedly hid behind the green potted plants, thinking that she was very safe, but in fact, Leonard had seen her. He was about to walk towards her but was stopped by a staff member."General Manager, the party will start immediately. Are you ready?"Leonard frowned; he was still waiting for his girlfriend for tonight. So he started looking for Sita. Nina took the opportunity to run out.“Sita
“General Manager.” The assistant led a group of people and ran over.“She is my girlfriend. You guys quickly put on her makeup, I'll wait for you two outside for fifteen minutes." Leonard took his coat and turned right to go out. Nina pulled him back: "I can't.""You can. You can consider it helping me." He smiled. That smile slowly loosened Nina's grip. It wasn't that she hadn't done such a thing before—Adrian often brought her to situations like this before—it was just that she didn't like it. Why did Leonard have to find her? She looked at him, confused, then saw him nod and go out.They had had a lot of scandals before, and if she appeared with him this time, and as his girlfriend, she didn't know how much trouble this time would cause.Nina dispelled those thoughts, tried to push the makeup group away, and quickly ran out."I don't think I can." Nina said, "I don't want to. You're making things difficult for yourself because of me." After saying that, she wanted to leave, but Le
"Thank you, everyone. I hope everyone is happy." Leonard finished speaking and led Nina to the table to sign."Do I have to sign too?" Nina asked softly."Of course." Leonard handed her a pen.Nina took it and saw her jade hand gently rise and move it twice before signing her name. Even the act of signing fluently did not resemble someone from ordinary society. Leonard, who had a deep meaning, looked at her for a while and then went to the side to sign his name.The two of them signed their names and walked towards the stage."Whose princess is this?" The group of beauties saw the handsome young master of the Roberts Group and a strange woman being intimate with each other and couldn't help but discuss it excitedly."I'm so jealous.""I don't think this woman looks like the woman in the newspaper, she looks more like Leonard's ex-wife five years ago." Female C suddenly interjected, scaring the rest of them to death."What are you kidding? His ex-wife didn't look like this. Until I di
"Two million five hundred thousand." Everyone looked at the treasure."Three million.""Three million two hundred thousand.""Mr. Leonard." The auctioneer stepped forward. "Just now, a gentleman called to bid ten million.""Ten million?" Although this horse was a good item, the price of ten million was beyond its value. Who would be so interested in it?"Everyone, just now someone bid ten million for this item. Which of you will bid higher?" The auctioneer asked.The hall became quiet, everyone was waiting for Leonard because only he had the strength to continue bidding. But he did not continue bidding and chose to remain silent."Okay, ten million, agreed."Leonard called his assistant to whisper a few words in his ear, and the assistant immediately and hurriedly left. About ten minutes later, he ran back."The CEO who just called is from Los Angeles. We have investigated, and the other party is just an ordinary rich person."Leonard crossed his arms and frowned. How could this ordin
“Miss Nina, please perform a song." Someone interrupted loudly. "Miss Nina."Nina crossed her arms in front of her chest, her hands tightly holding the harmonica, her hands starting to sweat, but she still tried to keep a smiling posture, not revealing any tension or discomfort."Miss Nina, do you want to try playing the violin?" The woman brought the violin because she knew that the violin was not like the piano; if you don't know how to play it, you can't play it.When the instrument arrived in front of Nina, in her eyes, the strings sparkled as if there was some kind of magic. She stared at the strings as thin as hair, suddenly feeling a sudden excitement. That excitement made her reach out to catch the violin.Leonard looked at Nina, his hands slowly clenching."Where is the applause?" The woman shouted, and immediately, a loud applause rang out from below the stage. The lights on the stage seemed to melt into a halo around Nina, who was looking down at the darkness below the stag
“After the patient wakes up, you must pay attention, gently comfort her, and be careful not to overwork her.”Hatice was completely immersed in her world, so she heard nothing.“Miss Hatice? Miss Hatice?” Leonard called her several times, but she didn’t answer. “What are you thinking?”“Ah, no.” Everything was unclear, so she shouldn’t tell Leonard about this speculation. After all, his relationship with Tawny was too complicated. If he knew that Nina was Tawny, she didn’t know how he would react.“You stay here, Nina will take care of you, I will go contact the doctor, go find the best medicine, how do you feel?”Hatice glanced at him and suddenly pushed him aside, pointed at the main door, and said, “Go now.”“General Manager.” Leonard had just walked out of the hospital when his assistant called. “White Horse was not taken away immediately but was taken to the bank.”“Continue to monitor them for me, I don’t believe they can stay there for the rest of their lives.”“Moreover, Gener
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
At Matthews' house.Adrian was under house arrest, and Shanley was angry. He thought of a way to let Zoey and Leonard die together.He gave all his assistants work and locked himself in the lab. Adding the missing part of Plan A, he wanted to use this as his final bet.Shanley was already a genius in computers, so creating something related to machines was not difficult for him.A few years ago, he was also a participant in the national competition with Leonard, although he did not win, he made it to the finals, he was not is an easy-going person.For three days and three nights, Shanley locked himself in the laboratory, and for three days and three nights, he accumulated all kinds of hatred in his heart. The Roberts family would not stop at anything. Why was the victim, the Matthews family, the weakest family? Why did his five years of hard work become a chess piece in the service of hatred?The chaotic thoughts were like a powerful tsunami that broke all the shields surrounding his
He used the intelligence of the Matthews brothers to destroy the Tsviliov family and the Roberts family, and did the day the Matthews Group went bankrupt have anything to do with him? Shanley suddenly felt cold all over. Could it be that everything was Zoey's plot?---In a certain hospital, Leonard was alone in the middle of the vast ocean. He watched Tawny being engulfed by the blue flames, but couldn't do anything."Tawny, Tawny," Leonard shouted loudly and woke up, he found himself in a hospital room, outside the window there was the sound of birds chirping, it turned out to be just a dream. He sighed and lay down, his mind blank."Awake?" Esmeralda stood outside and walked over. "Your injured leg has been operated on, but it's hard to say whether it can return to its original state.""Tawny?" Until now, Leonard still hadn't discovered that this woman wasn't the real Tawny. Esmeralda didn't explain but handed him a morning newspaper.Leonard took the newspaper, saw the news, and w
The seawater seeped into the wound on his leg, the pain pierced through his bones, awakening Leonard's consciousness. He slowly opened his eyes and found himself swept into a cave on the beach.Tawny? He panicked and groped around but couldn't find Tawny anywhere, no wanted to face the truth, but his heart ached so much that he couldn't speak. However, life had changed so much, he didn't know who he would meet in this place. When Leonard tried to lift himself out of the seawater, he discovered Tawny."Tawny, it's you." He ignored the pain in his thigh and quickly limped towards her.The woman smiled, "Mr. Leonard, why can I still meet you in this place?""Tawny. It's great that you're not dead." He hugged her tightly, not wanting to let go for a moment.He had mistaken the person, not knowing what had happened.But because he had been electrocuted, Leonard's mind was hazy, and in his current subconscious, because he didn't want to face the fact that Tawny might be dead, he refused to
In the ruined basement, Lucas, Aaron, and many other boys and girls were huddled in a corner. Two days had passed, but no one had come to look for them. Poor Aaron had lost his temper; only Lucas was still reluctantly persistent."Your friend came to the bus stop today to ask for money. Don't run away, don't tell anyone else, otherwise don't blame me tonight..." Aaron and Lucas were dragged out yesterday because of resisting, Poor Aaron had been beaten very savagely; his face was full of bruises and large and small wounds.They had not eaten or drunk anything for two days, so they were both exhausted. They were walking and resting while carrying a torn bag. Aaron cried.“Aaron, don’t cry. If you cry, I want to cry too.” Lucas sighed. “So sad.”“It’s all because of you that they forced us to come here to beg.” Aaron wiped his tears. “I don’t know if I’ll ever see my dad again in this life.” Just thinking about it made his heart ache.“But, but…” Lucas wanted to say something, but it wa
“What does he look like?” Tawny asked urgently.“Tall, his face was pale, very handsome.” Skye tried to remember.“Leonard?” Tawny exclaimed.“It seems to be this name. Do you know him?”“Where is he being held? Take me there quickly.” Tawny’s whole body trembled.Skye hesitated. “The young master said that no one is allowed to go near that place.”“Skye, you understand me the most. Leonard is very important to me. Take me to find him,” Tawny exclaimed.Skye was very scared; she did not want to disobey Shanley’s orders because his orders meant death, but according to Nina’s request, she could not bear it.“I will take you there, but you must not tell Young Master Shanley,” Skye said fearfully.“Don’t worry, I absolutely will not tell.”So Skye led Tawny to where Leonard was being held, but the door was locked.“Leonard. Leonard." Tawny called out. Leonard was in a coma, but when he heard her voice, he slowly woke up. He used all his strength to answer her: “Tawny, why you? Are you oka
But no one paid attention to him. Shanley looked at Leonard’s reaction with satisfaction. After about a minute, he stopped.Leonard only felt that more than half of his soul had flown away."Mr. Leonard, how do you feel?"Leonard took a deep breath. "Not bad." He was calm and natural."The members of the Roberts family are rotten and stubborn eggs." Shanley threw away the thing in his hand. "I don't want to force you now. Give you time to think. Think carefully and then come see me."Shanley walked out leisurely. The years of living in the dark world had faded his kindness. He became increasingly cruel and heartless. After 5 minutes of torture, Leonard began to hallucinate and his ears buzzed. It turned out that this was the real effect of the machine. It made his mind dizzy and confused.---The melodious sound of the violin echoed throughout the great hall.He was feeling sleepy when he suddenly heard the host say, "Please invite the outstanding student of the Tawny Music Academy to
"Leonard, you are indeed a brave man." Shanley slowly walked down with a gun in his hand, "Dare to come here alone.""Is it you?" Leonard stood up as if the wound on his leg did not hurt at all. He looked at Shanley sharply, trying to remember who this person was. Leonard's mind drew a fateful face."Shanley?" Leonard asked."Yes, it's me." Shanley sneered, his handsome face distorted. "Five years, we finally met. Leonard, it's been a long time since we last saw each other.""What do you want in the end? Why did you capture my son?" Leonard asked angrily."At first, to deal with the Matthews family, didn't you and your father also use this trick?" Shanley lowered his head, unable to see his attitude.Leonard frowned; he didn't know how to explain the incident five years ago. Because he was just a pawn, everything was directed by his father.That year, Leonard's father forced his son and Tawny to marry for a purpose. He wanted to take over the Matthews family's fortune.It was only whe
