Tanya said after cracking a bitter smile.“What? You agreed to such terms? Not only was the wages high,he wouldn’t even listen to us? In addition to that, he can leave whenever he wants to? How is that okay?”Timothy was so shocked, his eyeballs were seemingly about to fall onto the ground as he immediately placed his tea cup down then told James, “Father, this br*t is too unreasonable now. Who on earth does he think he is? If he’s the King of War or God of War, that would be acceptable or else, what right does he have to request for such a demand?”“No matter who he is, if he doesn’t make such a request, it would be extremely abnormal and it’ll only prove that he had no actual strengths!”James on the other hand was laughing while nodding his head. He said, “If he’s truly capable, he wouldn’t even bat an eye on the twenty million bucks. He merely agreed because he had nothing to do and wanted to keep his wife company or perhaps, he was just killing time. Besides, if he doesn’t loo
“Sure. It’s quite a long way. As long as you’re tired, that won’t be a problem!”Selena smiled blissfully. At first, she thought that Fane seemed cold ever since he came back from the war. He always had on a serious face. Unexpectedly, there were times where he could be romantic.“Of course, I won’t be tired. As long as you’re the one behind me, anything is bearable. I can even be strong enough to carry you to work every day!”Fane replied happily.“Daddy, I want you to carry me too!”Kylie, who was in his arms chuckled.“Sure, come on. Daddy will carry you!”Fane placed the little girl on his back in one swooping motion.“Brother-in-law, if you really became a bodyguard with a salary of twenty million bucks a month, can you help me get a car? Hehe, all the matters earlier were just misunderstandings.” Ben ran up to them after getting a glance from Xena and asked with a chuckle, trying to butter up to Fane.Although he too felt that the Second Miss was being conned by Fane. However, wh
Selena smiled and made a joke. “You don’t say. I really think that might be possible. After all, your husband is so handsome, what happens if someone decides to be my sugar mommy?”Fane was speaking as he looked backward at that snow-white sexy thigh that was just by his side. He moved his hand over and lightly caressed the side of her leg.“Ah!”Selena did not expect Fane to be so brazen. Her face turned red immediately, “What’re you doing?! How can you be so mischievous while driving in broad daylight?! Do you know how embarrassing it is for others to see this on the street? I didn’t expect you to be such a delinquent.”“Cough! Cough! I just saw a mosquito and decided to kill it for you!”Fane answered with a straight face.“Mosquito my butt. Do you think I’m a three-year-old?! If you do that again, I’ll get off and walk home!”Selena was frustrated, feeling extremely embarrassed.Right then, a Ferrari passed by. Seeing such a scene, the driver could not resist swallowing a mouthfu
“What’s the meaning of this?”Fane stopped the electric scooter next to the car and stared coldly at the other person after he got off it. “Are you blind?”Young Master Hugo acted as though he could not hear a word from Fane. Instead, he looked at Selena and asked, “Oh my, this...isn’t this Selena Taylor, the prettiest girl according to the legends? Miss Taylor, I heard that a lot of gentlemen are courting you, yet you’ve turned them all down. And here I thought you’re being loyal and waiting for your trashy husband!”Having said that, he then looked toward Fane disdainfully, continuing, “It turns out that you would find loneliness too hard to bear at times too. Seems like I’ve caught you in the act, didn’t I?”“Does any of my matter have anything to do with you?”Selena could not be bothered to debate with him, stating coldly, “That was intentional, right? You purposely parked your car by the side, then waited for us to pass this puddle to rush over, isn’t it?”“Oh my, Miss Taylor, yo
The puddle was already over a dozen meters behind them. However, Fane’s kick was extraordinarily powerful. He managed to send him flying, finally landing in that puddle.Young Master Hugo’s floral shirt was then drenched by the muddy water. “Y-y-you dare to hit Young Master Hugo? Are you looking for death?”The woman was terrified, immediately backing away as she pointed at Fane.Fane maintained emotionless, staring straight at her. “Do you want me to take action, or will you voluntarily roll in that puddle over there?”“D-d-don’t hit me…”The woman was scared witless by Fane’s gaze. It was the gaze of someone that survived countless bloodbaths. After saying that, she quickly ran over and started rolling in the puddle. Her skirt was already very short. After it got wet, her body shape was all the more revealing.“Brat, y-y-you just wait!”Young Master Hugo was boiling with rage. He stood up, then spat out a mouthful of blood. The skin on his arm tore and was bleeding. Even his shirt
“Demolish? If that’s the case, shouldn’t we get a bit of compensation?”Fane was distracted for a moment, then followed Selena into the house.At that moment, the living room was very lively. There were a number of workers that were talking to Fiona and Andrew.“Oh my, Selena, what happened to both of you? Why are you covered in dirt?”Seeing Selena and Fane, Joan was shocked, asking quickly.“Ugh, we passed by a puddle earlier and a car did not slow down...so we got splashed!”Selena stuttered with a frown. She was too ashamed to say it. If her mother knew that they offended the terrible Hugo family, how would she react?“Oh my, so this is Miss Taylor!”A middle-aged man stood up cheerfully, then explained, “I’m the worker in charge. It’s like this. This location is being expropriated as it is rather peaceful here. We’re planning to build a retirement home, therefore this house must be demolished!”“Retirement home?”Selena frowned.“That’s right. You can treat it as a contribution to
“Furthermore, we have received complaints that this courtyard was built illegally, do you understand? You’re already lucky that you’re not getting fined. We’re just negotiating to have you move away voluntarily. What makes you think there will be any compensation?”The middle-aged man had a smile on his face, but his words immediately turned the rest and Fiona’s mood foul. This demolition had no compensation?“Impossible. This is our Taylor family’s old mansion. It’s been left uninhabited for many years. My grandfather was the one that told us to stay here. At any rate, there should be a demolition compensation. How is this an illegal building? We’ve been staying here for so many years!”Selena was furious. Her original plan was to come home for a bath, but she was in no mood for that for the time being. The other party was just being unreasonable.“I think the money is there, but you’re just planning to keep it for yourself, right? Hehe, do you know that we’re from the Taylor family?
“Oh my, Young Master Clark, why are you here? It’s been a long time!”Upon seeing Ken with his lackeys, Fiona immediately welcomed them cheerfully.“Hehe, Auntie, it’s not that long. We’ve just met two days ago!”Ken chuckled, then pointed at his teeth. “Look, I’m whistling as I speak. It’s all because of your precious son-in-law!”Fiona’s expression immediately turned awkward. She forced a smile and replied, “Watch what you’re saying. This man is not my son-in-law. We will only find out after the old man’s seventieth birthday in about twenty more days!”Ken was taken aback, his face was filled with surprise. “Auntie, what do you mean by that? They’re already legally married and the kid is a few years old. Why do we need to wait for about 20 more days to find out?”“Yes yes yes!”Fiona immediately nodded. “It’s like this. Let’s not mention the matters back then. It’s like this. After Fane came back, he got into a fight with Young Master Ivan and beat him up.”“After that...that’s why,
