Behind him, Felicia stood silently. Unlike Kennedy, he didn't make a show of making fun of her, even though he knew exactly who she was. If anything, he seemed courteous and very well-behaved. After exiting the elevator, she went outside. In her hand, her phone buzzed. Greg was on the phone. Felicia picked up and said, "I just got out of the elevator." Following a brief conversation, she ended the call.

The previous man had already vanished down the hall by the time she passed through the secur

    How likely was it that she would run into him here? There were moments when she thought the cosmos was simply playing tricks on her. Max appeared to be waiting for someone as well and placed an order for coffee. Felicia pretended he didn't, her gaze fixed on her laptop. exist. It buzzed on her phone. Jeremy was the one. "I'll be there in about ten minutes," he said. Felicia said, "All right," and hung up before going to the bathroom. She nearly dropped her luggage when she returned.Max appeared to be the owner of the space as he sat just across from her. She was momentarily stunned as she gazed at him before regaining her composure. She reminded him, "Mr. Hawthorne, someone's sitting here," in a forceful yet calm voice. Max remained still. With a businesslike tone, he simply took out his phone and glanced up at her. "What's your number?" Felicia's eyes grew wide. "Don't get the wrong idea," he said in his icy, clipped manner. You don't pique my attention.My daughter is in need of yo

    Evelynn's name had begun to have some significance in the sector ever since the summit concluded. She was regarded by some for her skill and expertise, but there were always those who whispered behind her back that she was too close to certain powerful people. Ava and Colton took the infant for a walk outside that night after dinner with her folks. Felicia remained in the living room with Greg and Luke, listening to Greg talk about his job and watching TV.He informed them that Sunlight Tech had recently won the CN project from Greenway Electrical Services. Considering how much money and time they had previously invested in it, it was a devastating blow. Greg maintained his composure, though. Even though the loss was disappointing, Greenway could manage it. "That's just how business goes," he remarked. "You can never expect a hundred percent success." Felicia nodded, but with a twinge of regret.She immediately thought of Darin when she found out that IronGate Industries supported Sun

    Max was quiet. "If she doesn't want to stay for lunch, Anne, should Daddy make her do it just for you?" Anne glanced up at her father, looking for a response on his face. "What if she ends up upset with you because of it?" he inquired. Anne buried her head and remained silent for a considerable amount of time. She eventually responded, "Evelynn wouldn't get mad at me," but it sounded like she wasn't sure of herself. She was informed by Evelynn that she was preoccupied with work.Looking back, would Evelynn have been upset if she had actually forced her to stay? Anne felt a weird, heavy sensation in her chest at the thought that Evelynn might not like her. Tatiana's voice came out from outside at that moment. "Come on, let's go get breakfast." Anne left the room with her father. She shouted out pleasantly, "Grandpa, Grandma!" when she saw her grandparents at the dining table, and Brandon embraced her."How about you stay with us for a couple of days, Anne?" Felicia awoke with a whirlin

    To pick up Anne, Tatiana hurried directly to the office. She felt something wasn't right the instant she saw her, but Anne remained silent despite her repeated questions. Anne hardly spoke at all during the afternoon. Tatiana simply pushed the plate away, even when she prepared her favorite delicacies. Watching her like this made Tatiana feel powerless. Brandon and Tatiana did everything they could to put a smile on Anne's face when they came home.They let her run around downstairs and took her outside for some fresh air. Anne's mood began to improve gradually. At dinner, she even consumed a bit more food. Max remained silent. "I'll go check on her." Silently, he made his way to her chamber and carefully opened the door. The pleasant, pink room with a princess motif was flooded with soothing yellow light. A fluffy bunny was nestled in Anne's arms as she slept soundly beneath the blankets.Max saw a handcrafted flower crown and a pearl bracelet on her nightstand. He observed her seren

    Jeremy approached Felicia directly and gave her a brief examination. He said, "Are you alright?" Felicia looked him in the eye and gave a slight shake of her head. "I'm fine." Max silently observed the two of them. After giving Max a quick glance, Jeremy's gaze shifted to Mitch, who was being assisted by a few bodyguards. For Jeremy, it all clicked right away. He glanced at Max with a serious gaze."Mr. Hawthorne, what happened here?" They were staring at each other, the tension in the air thick enough to cut with a knife. The color faded from Mitch's face when he recognized Jeremy. Jeremy was one of the few individuals in the Capital who could match Max in terms of force and brutality. It dawned on Mitch that the girl he had harassed had a connection to Jeremy. He felt regret, and Wyatt intervened to attempt to make things right. It's simply a miscommunication. No harm done; she's fine.Is this your girlfriend, Jeremy? It appears that you have finally worked things out. Why have you

    Ready to pull Felicia off her stool, the security moved in. She gave them a stare that could break glass. "Don't touch me!" she yelled. For a moment, the force in her eyes caused them to freeze. However, they soon dismissed it and made another attempt to grab her. Kennedy called out, "Stop!" from the throng. He forced his way through and positioned himself in front of Felicia. He scowled in concern as the booze caused her cheeks to flush. "Evelynn, are you alright?"Felicia finished her drink all at once by tipping back her glass. "Can I get the check?" she asked the bartender after setting it down. Kennedy intervened. "Let me cover your drinks tonight, Evelynn." Felicia turned to face him at last. A gentle misty veil obscured her normally clear and sharp gaze. Her gaze on him was different—gentler, almost welcoming. Kennedy's heart skipped a beat. Felicia recognized him despite her inebriation. She gave a headshake. "Thanks for the offer, but I'll pay for myself."As she dismissed hi

    He hardly acknowledged her at all, speaking to Tatiana for a few words before walking away without even looking at Felicia. Still fuming with rage, Tatiana reprimanded Felicia several more times before leaving. Marian and Amaris followed, ensuring she reached her vehicle. Felicia remained motionles

    "I'll finish up the files today and get the handover done as soon as I can." Max remained silent. He only gave her a chilly glance before making his way directly to the dining room. Felicia exhaled deeply when he had gone. She approached the couch and took a quick look at the pile of papers she had

    Felicia strolled down the pavement, stopping occasionally to take a breath. She hadn't actually eaten lunch, and now that the cold was piercing her coat, she was hungry, and her stomach was beginning to turn uncomfortably. She eventually arrived at the estate's main gate after more than thirty minu

    Feeling her baby's subtle kicks, Felicia lay on her side with her palm lightly covering her belly. Slowly, her feelings calmed down. Nevertheless, she kept thinking about what Kennedy had said. Max detested the child who was developing inside of her. How much would Miranda care after Miss Curtis ga
