Two days passed, and Lena was finally able to move freely.

I have been acting as a sleeping pill for Hunter all week, she didn't dare to move at all when lying in bed.

Lena took a comfortable shower in the morning and then said she wanted to leave Palm Bay.

Hunter was sitting on the couch, reading the morning newspaper, and upon hearing the words, he showed no expression.

Lena quickly explained, "That Schwartz Hospital in the suburbs, I had previously mentioned that I was going to persuade the old director to move out, but I got delayed due to the injury in the past few days. I will be working very hard in the coming days. Um, Mr. Reid, I just want to confirm, you don't have any plans to dismiss me, do you?"

Hunter paused, slowly lifting his hand that was holding the newspaper and looked up.

He slept well all week and his complexion looked much better.

"Who said I was going to fire you?"

Lena breathed a sigh of relief, and her

    While Dave was resting at home, he still had a great concern for the matters at the company. In addition, as he had been preparing for the project for two years, he wanted to carefully review every contract before it started.He coughed a few times in bed and then told Margaret, "Bring me my computer."Margaret sighed, "Your body is already like this, why are you trying to be strong? Leah is enough for the company. Have you forgotten Leah's abilities? She has been busy all week, and it breaks my heart just watching her."A satisfied expression appeared on Dave's face as he raised his hand to rub his forehead."Leah was good, but this project had been prepared for two years, and it also concerned whether the Dawson family's business could expand overseas. I have put in so much effort for this project in the past two years, and I cannot afford to fail at this crucial moment. Many executives are watching."Margaret sat on the bed next to him, holding

    Lena raised an eyebrow, it seemed like another person deceived by Leah.Lauryn finished speaking and slowly sat back down. "Leah has always been a very timid child. When she was in our family, we all doted on her, and Eugene doted on her too. But for some reason, the girls around her never liked her. Because of this, we tried our best to not let her feel uncomfortable and took good care of her."She spoke while crying."Eugene, although a fool, was innocent and lovable, with a good heart. Many times, he was beaten to a pulp for protecting Leah. Six years ago, he never woke up again after protecting Leah. After that, Leah felt extremely guilty and said she wanted to earn money. She worked multiple jobs every day. Somehow, the Dawson family suddenly recognized her and took her back. We were initially happy for her, but my husband was immediately caught up in the turmoil and sentenced to twenty years. I went to the Dawson family, crying and begging for some money,

    When Lena got off the car, Leah had already driven away.She entered the elevator that Leah had just sat in, and could still smell the strong scent of perfume inside, clearly indicating that Leah had dressed up carefully today.Did you come to see Hayden?But she glanced at the work group and noticed that Hayden hadn't come to the office for the past few days.The wedding of these two people is only ten days away, but it seems like both of them are not in a hurry, one more than the other.She didn't go to her own workstation, but went straight into Hunter's office to report the situation to him.There was no one in the office, where did Hunter go?She walked quietly to the adjacent lounge and was about to knock on the door when she heard his voice coming from inside."I had my own plan for this matter, so you all should not act rashly. She doesn't dislike me as much as before now, so don't spoil things by being too clever."

    He turned around and left the office directly, always catching Hunter's fox tail.Lena was also getting tired of Hayden always spreading rumors, which made her feel awkward in front of Hunter.She turned around to leave, and as she saw Hunter seemingly about to stand up, but without paying attention to her hand, she accidentally swung the coffee cup down, spilling the coffee onto his suit pants.His brow furrowed, he struggled to bend down and deal with it.Lena quickly approached and took the tissue on the table to wipe it on his pants."Mr. Reid, please have a seat, I'll take over."His legs were not very agile, but he didn't like to bother others by the looks of it.Hunter sat down slowly and saw her wiping the stains very seriously.Lena threw the tissue into the trash can and then went to find a mop to clean up the coffee stains on the floor.Just as I was about to put the mop back, I heard him ask.After my

    Lena was so anxious that she was about to push people away, but she was suddenly hugged by the other person.She spoke a little clumsily, "Sorry, could you please put me down? I thought only the waitresses were dressed as bunny girls."The man's footsteps came to a halt, and one could feel the immense pressure emanating from him."Do you like this?"This was just Lena's morbid curiosity, because she saw it in a computer advertisement, so she wanted to take a look.She stopped talking, thinking about the spring dream she had had in the private room before. It was possible that she really lacked a man, which was why she had such a shameful dream.She took a deep breath and tried to push the person away.But he held her and didn't know where they had arrived, soon he placed her on a soft bed.Lena suddenly jumped up, she did not have a penchant for one-night stands.The thing that was just passively eaten seems to have take

    When she left the villa and got back into the car, her legs were weak. She opened the mirror in the car and saw that her entire neck was indeed covered in red marks.She leaned back on the chair and, at that moment, caught sight of the sunset outside. Her whole being became alert.Just now inside, the environment was so dark and the man's voice was so pleasant, I was practically being led by the nose by the other person.She raised her hand and rubbed her temples, but she didn't finish it in the end, but it didn't make much difference whether she finished it or not.She sighed and felt a mess somewhere, her cheeks turned red.Lena, Lena, what did you used to do in the past?But fortunately, there was still a gain from this trip, at least the man she was looking for was already lying in the back seat.She hesitated for another half an hour before stepping on the gas.And in the spacious room she left, the lights were still not t

    The man, upon hearing these words, burst into laughter."Lauryn, oh Lauryn, it's a pity that you and your husband worked hard all your lives, but ended up raising a backstabber. Do you know how your husband got involved? Do you know who was responsible for the victim's bodily fluids? You will never know the extent of Leah's dark methods, and that's why she destroyed your family, yet you still think she's a good child. Hahaha, let me tell you the truth, your son is lying in bed because of Leah's own doing. This fool always liked to follow her around, causing her to be mocked by others. She couldn't take it anymore, so she came up with a permanent solution. Don't ask me how I know, I saw it with my own eyes. I happened to be asking Jacoby for money at that time, but he refused to lend it to me, so I didn't tell you. I can only say that you deserve it! Thinking you're so noble and great, you deserve to be deceived for the rest of your life!"The man was harsh with his wor

    Lena got on the car and really didn't know what this "don't make hasty decisions" referred to.Is it about emotions or something else?She had also experienced a lot of shocks today and was very tired.When she was driving back, she passed by the Reid Group and, surprisingly, she saw Hunter.He lowered his head, keeping a distance, unable to see the expression on his face.Lena parked the car and smiled at him, "Mr. Reid, just got off work? Do you want me to give you a ride home?"Hunter looked up at her, turned his head away, and said, "Hmm."Lena always felt a strange discomfort in him.She got off the car and wanted to push him onto the car, but suddenly she remembered that her car didn't have the high-end features like Hunter's, so it couldn't automatically lower the sliding board.Awkward.He slightly lowered his head and then asked, "Did I cause trouble for you?"Lena's conscience was instantly condem

    Lena had already been thrown into another car at the moment, and the leading man blindfolded her, his tone threatening."Ms. Dawson still obediently cooperated with us, otherwise, if we started to take action, it would be to your disadvantage."She didn't move, allowing the black cloth to cover her eyes.She could feel the car turning in another direction, and the people sitting in the car remained silent throughout.These people seemed more professional compared to those in the past who wanted to deal with her.The car drove for an hour, and she was carried on someone's shoulder and walked for a distance before being thrown down directly.The door closed with a loud "bang", and then the world became silent.She was now with her hands tied behind her back, only able to cautiously try to stand up by finding a fulcrum, and then rubbing off the blindfold from her eyes.There was no light around, only a faint glow coming through th

    Hayden hasn't been coming out to these gatherings recently, and no one knows what he has been up to.The people in the private room saw him leave, and the voices of discussion became louder.After all, everyone knew before that Hayden seemed to like Lena again, but Lena was captivated by that male model and now she doesn't even want to look at him.Hayden walked outside the compartment and continued to call Lillian."Lillian, what did you mean by completely resolving the trouble you mentioned?"The private room was too noisy just now, so he couldn't hear clearly, but he guessed it must be related to Lena.Lillian was in a very good mood tonight and immediately spilled the beans about her secret with Joanna."Bro, I believe you also hated Lena, right?"Hayden clenched one hand into a fist and looked at the pitch-black sky outside."Did you succeed?"When he asked this question, there was a gleam in his eyes.

    She immediately called Lillian, in her opinion, Lillian was another fool, very easy to deceive.Sure enough, after learning about what she had done, Lillian immediately generously wired ten million."Joanna, you are really amazing. This ten million is your reward. Once it is confirmed that Lena is dead, I will give you another ten million. This matter will become a secret between the two of us, and no one should tell anyone, understand?"Joanna looked at the incoming message on her phone, and a mocking smile curled up at the corner of her mouth.The thing that Lillian despised the most happened to be the thing she lacked the most at present.She needed money and worked hard to invest in herself, making herself more perfect and beautiful in order to catch the attention of that man.She knew that Lillian looked down on her, but she also didn't think highly of this idiot, just a cash machine.Although she thought this way in her heart, s

    When Lena was being taken into the car, she clearly felt a burning anger in her heart, but she couldn't bring herself to express it.She tried to connect a series of recent events, but Randy's sudden change in attitude was completely unexpected, and she had no idea what had happened.The car drove towards more remote places, and she only wanted to stay alive now.On the other side, as Randy got on the car, he received a call from Joanna.His tone was somewhat cold."Joanna, do you really have a way to help Lena regain her memory?"Joanna's lips curved, as she looked at the sparkling nail on her finger, everything was under her control.She had said that she would create an insurmountable rift between Lena and Randy with Elyse's death, and now she has accomplished it."Randy, I could only try my best to think of a solution."In Randy's perception, Joanna was Lena's only good friend before she lost her memory, perhaps she

    He entered the room and realized that Elyse's living space was actually a toilet. Inside, he couldn't even stretch his legs. By now, her parents had already thrown out things like blankets, leaving only a small bed frame. On the highest window next to it, there was a row of her belongings.If her parents were taller, it is estimated that these things would have been thrown out.The couple saw Randy running around in the room and immediately became anxious. They quickly grabbed the broom nearby and rushed towards him."Who are you, after all?! Get out of our house immediately, is it that bitch Elyse who bribed you to come and deal with us?! Get out! Get out!""That little bastard was probably scared off by us, so he didn't dare to come back. Haha, did you think we would be afraid of you? We still beat him!"Randy's current state was off. He swept away everything blocking his path in front of him and then tiptoed to grab the things on Elyse's window

    Randy suddenly buried his head in the steering wheel, his tone somewhat mocking."Lena, do you think that Elyse was an extremely selfish person in your eyes, not worth me doing anything for her?"Lena stopped talking, and even though Elyse had her shining points, it didn't change the fact that she was indeed selfish.Randy seemed a bit tired, his mouth twitched, "Forget it, you can go down."Lena felt a wave of sadness and at that moment, she didn't feel like continuing the conversation with him. She simply opened the car door and walked out.Randy said that there were people waiting for her below, but she continued walking forward for several hundred meters without encountering anyone. Instead, footsteps could be heard behind her.She turned around and what she saw was Randy.He followed quietly, but he followed from a distance.The scene was like when he disappeared in the snow, and she went to look for him that day. Both of

    There was a scream from the surroundings, and doctors came to examine, but they all only said one sentence."There was no need for rescue."Randy was ice-cold all over until Elyse's body was brought into the morgue, and only then did he snap out of such chaos.The nanny at home called and asked when he would return.He pressed the answer button, but he felt his throat being squeezed, unable to say a word.He didn't know how he drove home, he felt very cold and tired all over.Entering the entrance, he lowered his head and quietly changed his shoes, when he heard Lena's voice."Why did you come back so late?"Lena sat in the hall, and there was a gift box on the coffee table, which was supposed to be her birthday present.Lena had originally left, but then she came back, thinking that it would be better to give him the gift in person when he turned twenty.But I didn't expect to wait until now, and in another hour,

    Randy stood by the bedside, raised his hand to rub her head, but his hand froze in mid-air and didn't come down for a while.Elyse didn't notice his actions, she just cried to herself, grabbing her hair with both hands, as if clutching a handful of dry straw.He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.At that moment, he felt like a jerk.He turned and walked out, going to the smoking area in the hospital where he smoked two cigarettes, watching people coming and going outside, feeling that this world was so unreal.The phone rang at this moment, it was Lena calling."Randy, I just delivered a gift to your house. The nanny said you were not there. Today is your birthday, happy birthday."The gift was chosen by her and Joanna together, so it should have pleased him.In the evening, she went shopping with Joanna. She couldn't spend New Year's Eve alone.Randy extinguished the cigarette in his hand. In fact, he didn't

    When Randy arrived at the place, he realized that Elyse was covered in bruises and even her clothes were torn.She leaned against a hidden spot and cried, her eyes swollen. When she heard footsteps, she huddled up, until Randy's voice sounded."Elyse?"Elyse shrank back, raising her head in disbelief, her eyes filled with a strong will to survive."Randy, save me, I didn't want to die yet! Save me, my child, save the child."Randy frowned and, without having time to ask her what had happened, he picked her up and placed her directly onto the car.But Elyse's spirits were clearly not very good, and she couldn't help but tremble at the slightest sound.When she was being taken to the hospital, she absolutely refused to go in with the doctor, gripping the door frame with both hands.Randy only then noticed that almost all of her nails had broken.It hurt just to look at it."Randy, save me, you're the only one I can
