Chapter 30

Camelia was still sitting on the sofa in the family room when the house fell silent again. Mrs. Vera had just gone into her bedroom to rest. The television was on without really being watched. Her thoughts drifted; her chest felt lighter after the long conversation earlier, yet there was also a weariness that clung to her.

She took a sip of water and glanced at the wall clock. It had been quite a while. She had to go home soon.

Footsteps were heard from the direction of the front doo

  • His Regret Began When I Abandoned Him   Chapter 340

    The phone screen in Revaline’s hand flickered, displaying a string of numbers and letters that were painfully familiar to her memory. The initial “B” seemed to radiate an invisible terror in the silence of the Ashford residence’s master bedroom.For five whole years, that number had been buried on her blacklist, locked away together with the memories of the past that she had deliberately buried deep within herself.Daven narrowed his eyes, staring at his cousin’s phone screen, which was still brightly illuminated.“Who’s calling this late at night, Revaline? Why do you look so pale?” Daven asked in a low voice, careful not to wake Joye, who was sleeping soundly on the bed.Revaline swallowed, her throat feeling bitter. She blinked several times to regain control of herself before, with a quick and decisive movement, pressing the red button with her thumb and immediately blocking the number from her phone.“No one,” Revaline replied,

    “Hurt him!” the scar-faced man shouted shrilly.The two burly henchmen immediately charged forward at the same time. The iron pipe in one of the criminals’ hands swung wildly toward the side of Daven’s head.Daven leaped backward at the last split second, nimbly avoiding the deadly blow.“Bastard!” Daven cursed sharply, delivering a powerful punch straight to the first criminal’s jaw and sending the man flying backward into a pile of empty wooden crates.The second criminal did not remain idle. He swung his knife wildly toward Daven’s abdomen.“Daven, watch out!” Joye screamed hysterically from inside the small room, her tears flowing even more heavily.Daven managed to grab the criminal’s wrist before the knife could tear through his jacket. Using all the strength and anger surging through him, Daven twisted his opponent’s arm behind his back until a faint cracking sound rang out, followed by a scream of pain that shattered the silence of the warehouse.Thud!The second criminal coll

    “Don’t disconnect this line, Daven!” Calvin’s voice boomed with authority through the wireless earpiece attached to Daven’s left ear.“I won’t, Dad!” Daven replied breathlessly, his eyes never leaving the congested New York City highway ahead of him.“Listen to my instructions,” Calvin continued from headquarters in a firm, uncompromising tone. “The Lancaster tactical unit team has already moved toward the northern harbor sector through three different routes. We’re ten minutes behind you.”“Ten minutes is too long, Dad! They threatened to hurt Joye if I’m late!” Daven shouted, gripping the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles turned white.“Stay calm and control your emotions, Daven!” Calvin warned sharply from the other end of the line. “Don’t act foolishly or recklessly on your own. Let our team carry out the ambush from a blind spot.”“I don’t care! If they lay so much as a finger on Joye, I’ll crush their bones myself!” Daven snarled in a frenzy, pressing down on the accel

    Joye's heart pounded rapidly as she stared at her phone screen once again. The veiled threat had successfully shattered the peace of mind she had only just regained."Why does a message like this have to come now?" Joye murmured softly, her fingers trembling above the flat screen.She paced back and forth in her bedroom, biting her thumbnail as she struggled with a major dilemma."Should I reply, or should I just ignore it?" she asked herself in a panicked voice.On one hand, she wanted to ignore it and wait for Daven to arrive at four in the afternoon. But on the other hand, the image of Daven and Revaline's closeness in the kitchen a few days ago resurfaced, triggering a burning curiosity in her chest."What if there really is something being hidden from me?" Joye whispered anxiously.Without thinking any further, her jealousy and fear of losing him overpowered her logic. Joye grabbed her small crossbody bag, put on her favorite beige coat, and hurried out of the apartment without l

    His steps felt heavy as he climbed the stairs to the third floor of Joye's apartment building. In his right hand, Daven carried a medium-sized bouquet of white roses and a box of strawberry cheesecake that he had just bought from the girl's favorite cake shop.The young man in a black bomber jacket let out a long sigh and rubbed the back of his stiff neck. The irritation that had been bubbling in his head yesterday had now subsided, replaced by guilt for letting his girlfriend fall asleep in tears and anger."Knock... knock... knock..."Daven gently knocked on the light brown wooden door. There was no answer from inside. He knocked once more while straightening the collar of his shirt."Joye? It's me, Daven. Open the door for a moment, Baby."A few seconds later, the sound of the lock turning came from inside. The door slowly opened, revealing Joye standing there looking dejected, her eyes slightly puffy and her body dressed in a loose house shirt. The girl stared at Daven expressionl

    The morning sun cast golden rays over the rows of skyscrapers in Manhattan’s financial district. On the top floor of a magnificent modern glass office tower, the atmosphere inside the main conference room was solemn yet filled with enthusiasm.The prestigious Lancaster Group—which had once been headquartered in Europe—had now officially moved its main headquarters to the heart of New York City, United States. This major step was made possible through strategic cooperation, full support, and the steady guidance of Juna and her husband, Calvin Ashford, who had dedicated their resources to ensuring that the family business empire could rise firmly to the pinnacle of its former glory.At the end of the main conference table, made of polished black teak, Camelia sat upright in a formal ivory blazer and matching trousers. Her long hair was neatly tied into a bun, radiating the authority, composure, and classic beauty of a true leader.To her right, Calvin sat beside her in a neat dark suit,
