Chapter 61

Author: Light Breeze
The other end of the line was silent for a long time. Willow's heart grew cold, and she could guess what Julian had chosen.

She suddenly smiled. It wasn't like she was the love of Julian's life, after all. Why would he change his mind just because she was begging him? He had always been cold-hearted toward her.

Eventually, Julian muttered, "I'm sorry, Willow."

Catherine had attempted suicide, and her life was in danger. Only Leonard could save her. Julian had weighed the pros and cons and decided to send Leonard's student in his place.

Once again, he made many promises to Willow, but she didn't process any of it. Her phone slipped from her hand. It felt like her world was crashing down.

It turned out that she meant nothing to Julian. All the hard work she had put in over the years was meaningless compared to some young lady. Meeting him was rotten luck on Willow's part.

The unexpected situation caught everyone off guard, and Dominic was more embarrassed than anyone. In an attempt

  • Leaving You Bereft   Chapter 792

    The styling team Landon called in was the one he'd always worked with, which meant all his previous girlfriends had used them, too.So when the team stylist saw Thalia, he immediately understood that this was Landon's new flame. But living in his villa was a position that came with serious expectations.Word was, marriage was on the horizon.With that in mind, the team worked especially hard. And the results showed.The lead stylist, Johnny Piers, was a male stylist with a delicate, refined manner, but his professional skills were impeccable. With just one look at Thalia, he pulled out a black silk evening gown for her. The wide neckline revealed just enough skin to be alluring without looking cheap.The gown itself hugged her curves perfectly.Thalia's smooth and shiny hair had been styled into soft, temporary waves that fell over her slim waist, adding a romantic flair. As for the bare neckline, that was easily solved. Thalia's jewelry cabinet held priceless pieces from the Z

    That night, Landon worked late and didn't get home until very late. As soon as he stepped out of the car, he looked up at the second floor.Thalia seemed to have gone to bed already.Instead, Angeline came out to meet him and whispered, "Ms. Robinson came by today, trying to provoke Ms. Sherman. She claimed she left her purse in your car. After she left, the dealership staff showed up in the afternoon, saying they'd cleaned the car."Ms. Sherman must've overthought it and spent a long time in the bathroom throwing up. I think she cried, too."Landon was taken aback. And honestly, he was pretty shocked at Theresa's nerve.Of course, he wasn't going to deal with it himself.Standing in the entryway, he called Greg. With just a few words, he explained the situation and told him to take care of it.Greg was surprised by how bold these women could get. First, it had been Gloria, then Theresa, both offering themselves after being rejected.Theresa had actually gone and offended the a

    Thalia didn't think much of it and told Angeline, "Let Ms. Robinson in."Angeline, who was always a little biased toward her, added softly, "You don't have to see her if you don't want to. Mr. Ziegler should handle things like this himself."Thalia gave a faint smile. "Obviously, he didn't."Angeline had no choice but to go.Once she was alone again, Thalia lowered her eyes to the glass of milk in front of her. She had no appetite anymore. She knew what Landon was like. His past flings were numerous.She never expected him to be faithful forever. Although they were getting married soon, she wasn't confident. She'd gone into it with the mindset that if it lasted a few years, that would be good enough.Before they were even married, one of his flings was already catching up to them.Soon, the sound of footsteps echoed in the entryway. She could hear high heels clicking against the floor. The other party had come prepared, ready to assert herself.As expected, the young woman she

    Landon walked through the courtyard.Night had settled, and the courtyard lay quiet and shadowed. Moonlight cast a silvery chill over the trees, distant and cold, while the villa radiated a cozy, amber glow.A household employee, Angeline White, walked over and asked in surprise, "Mr. Ziegler, where's your car?"Landon took off his jacket and said casually, "Outside the villa."Angeline didn't dare press further and only asked if he wanted a late-night snack.He thought for a moment before answering, "Make two plates of ravioli and bring them to the living room on the second floor."Angeline understood. Clearly, he hadn't eaten outside and wanted Thalia to join him.As someone experienced, she knew it better than anyone else. After all, Thalia was breathtakingly beautiful, like a delicate, blooming rose.Word was she'd grown up in a wealthy family and had known Landon since childhood, so how could they not have a special bond? They were set to marry by the end of the year.She

  • Leaving You Bereft   Chapter 788

    Greg had his thoughts, but he kept them to himself.Some things were better left unsaid. Saying them out loud was pointless.While they were talking, Eric arrived. He was about to be a groom, and in the business world, he had always been a straight shooter with no scandals, and he rarely conducted business in clubs like this.The moment he showed up, Greg shifted all his attention away from Landon and latched onto Eric like a pesky fly.Landon exchanged a glance with Xavier, and they both chuckled.To be fair, Greg was a flexible player in their circle. The Newman family had once struck it rich, but with few heirs. By the time it came down to Greg, he had to carry everything on his own, and it wasn't easy. He relied on his charm and ability to keep the family afloat.Everyone who hung out together tossed favors his way now and then. And to his credit, he was dependable and never hogged the pie. He had decent connections.Now, he wanted to work with Eric.Eric was inclined to ag
