Jack angrily swept everything off his desk, looking at the mess on the ground. However, he didn't feel any better. His iron face and furious gaze made him look like a Devil from hell."President..."Peter stood in front of the desk, trembling with fear.The president's mood was bad today, and his face was as dark as a storm. The cold aura emanating from him made everyone in the thirty-eighth floor secretary department speak and act cautiously, afraid of accidentally offending him and becoming innocent cannon fodder."Find out who did it for me!" Jack almost roared in anger.His face was extremely ugly, and his mood was terrible.Today, when he left Ashley's room, he didn't know where so many reporters and paparazzi came from. They were all asking him and Ashley about their relationship.If it was in the past, he might have admitted it openly, but now... He had married Hazel for Ashley's sake, and he couldn't let his grandfather see such news. Otherwise, his grandfather would definite
Jack stood by the French window, silently gazing outside with a cigarette between his fingers. He was still wearing yesterday's clothes, which were a bit wrinkled, but he didn't seem to care. He stood tall and straight, but there was a sense of melancholy about him.It had been an hour since he woke up, but he still couldn't come to his senses. He couldn't understand why he had gotten so drunk, especially since he had always had a good tolerance for alcohol. How could he have ended up sleeping with Ashley... He couldn't quite put a finger on what he was feeling right now. He had been with Ashley for over three years, and now that they had this substantial relationship, he should be happy. At the very least, he should be able to accept it calmly. But he couldn't calm down. His heart was like a hurricane, tangled and confused. Regret, indecision, confusion, and difficulty accepting... but no joy or celebration. There was even a hint of panic and helplessness."Jack," Ashley walked towar
Hazel was sound asleep when her phone suddenly rang. She didn't dare to sleep too deeply because she was worried about her mother, who had just regained consciousness. She woke up almost as soon as the phone rang.She quickly picked up the phone and covered the receiver, not wanting to wake her mother. She looked at her mother on the hospital bed, relieved that she wasn't disturbed, and scolded herself for forgetting to turn on silent mode.She was about to press the hang-up button and turn on silent mode when she realized that the call had already been answered. Perhaps... it was when she went to check if her mother was disturbed.On the screen, the name "Jack" was clearly displayed. She was surprised and looked at the time in the upper right corner of the screen. It was already 1:30 in the morning. Why was he still calling her? Did he feel angry because she didn't go back?She sighed lightly and decided to answer the call since it was already connected. If she hung up directly, he w
When Ashley arrived at the bar, Jack was already quite drunk."Jack?" She patted his shoulder.Jack turned his head and gave her a faint glance. His once deep eyes were now clearly filled with drunkenness. He furrowed his brow but didn't say anything to her. Instead, he turned his head and raised his empty glass, saying to the bartender, "More drinks!"Ashley stopped him by holding his hand. "You're drunk. You can't drink anymore." This was the first time she had seen him drunk.Before she went on break, she had called him, but the bartender had answered. The bartender told her that he had drunk a lot and the bar was about to close, so he asked her to come and pick him up."I said I want to drink. Didn't you hear me?!" Jack was dissatisfied, and his voice was much louder.She didn't pay attention to his yelling. What was there to think about for a person who had drunk too much?"How much did he drink?" Ashley asked the bartender.Looking at this woman wearing a mask and a duckbill cap
Jack arrived at the entrance of the bar, and Noah waved at him, "Hey! You're here fast!""Where are Anna and the others?" Jack asked directly."They're inside.""Take me there.""Forget it?" Noah coughed lightly, "She doesn't know I'm here too. If she finds out, she'll probably get angry."These days, he had tried to contact Anna, but the little girl didn't even bother to respond to him. He thought it might have scared her that night, so he didn't want to push her too hard and stopped bothering her. Anyway, he had already expressed his feelings, so there was no reason to back down. He was determined to win Anna over.She didn't want to see him, but that didn't stop him from wanting to know her whereabouts. These days, he had people report her movements to him, and when he saw her in a place like this bar today, he followed her from a distance. As long as she didn't do anything too outrageous, he could just watch from afar.Jack pursed his lips and glanced at him, his meaning clear."O
"Where are you?"In the receiver, came the low voice of Jack, and the displeasure in his tone was clear. Hazel bit her lip, not answering immediately.She could only hold the blanket with one hand because she had to answer the phone. To lighten the load, she leaned against the wall in the corridor to support the blanket.It was already late, and he actually called her? It was unbelievable. She thought that after yesterday, this morning, and seeing her with Steve, he wouldn't even want to talk to her."Hazel, I'm asking you where you are now! Are you deaf?!" His tone became even more severe because he didn't get her answer.Hazel sighed helplessly, "I'm at...""You're really something! How dare you stay out all night?! Come back to me now!""You... are you at Rose villa?" If he wasn't there, how would he know she wasn't home?"You don't need to worry about where I am. No matter where you are, come back within half an hour!"Hazel held the phone a little further away until his yelling
