There's No Turning Back Chapter 322
Harvey was stunned! He stood frozen in front of the urology department for a few seconds before turning and walking away.Once he got into his car, he contacted a hacker to infiltrate the hospital's urology department's system and retrieve Theodore's medical records.Since it was a private hospital with strong confidentiality measures, the hacker could only access Theodore's records from that day.When Harvey opened the file the hacker sent him, his eyes widened in shock. A few seconds later, Harvey laughed. There was a disdainful snort escaping his throat.Theodore Snapp… was actually impotent!…A few days later, a silver supercar pulled into the underground parking lot of the commercial building where Joss Tech was located.Elara had just unbuckled her seatbelt when Theodore, who was driving, got out of the car. He walked around the front of the car and opened the passenger door.The tall, impeccably dressed man in an expensive suit stood outside the door, exuding a charm th

Many in the business world believed Theodore wasn't the type to blindly throw money at a woman. His high-profile announcement of a relationship with Elara must have had ulterior motives.Elara met Theodore's gaze, seeing her own reflection in his eyes. She could even hear her heart pounding violently.The skin on her chest seemed to vibrate with each beat, her blood surging so intensely she feared her racing heart would give her away!She instinctively leaned back, pressing herself against the car window to create as much distance from Theodore as possible.Theodore noticed her reaction, and a fleeting sense of loss flashed in his eyes. "Sorry."He took a step back, putting a clear distance between them. Even though they both knew this intimacy was just an act for others, their body's instinctive reactions couldn't deceive each other.A fine layer of sweat formed above Elara's lips. "I'm fine…"Theodore probably thought she was uncomfortable with his sudden closeness, but in rea

Theodore smirked, and the doctor on the phone asked him, "Should we report this to the police?""Do you want the whole world to know I had urological surgery?"The doctor on the other end let out a mischievous laugh. "Your medical records were stolen by a hacker. It won't be long before the elites of the Capitol know about Mr. Theodore Snapp's… performance issues!"The man's long, clean fingers tapped lightly on the steering wheel. He glanced at the rearview mirror, where the Maybach was reflected."Proceed with today's follow-up as scheduled."The voice on the phone sounded concerned. "Aren't you worried…"Theodore stepped on the gas and turned the car around. "This is called 'luring the snake out of its hole.'"Watching Theodore drive away, Harvey got out of his car.The man was dressed in an expensive black suit. His face was cold and his deep eyes were like a dark pool on a winter night, unfathomable and mysterious.Harvey pressed the elevator button. The doors opened, and

Niamh sneered arrogantly, "I'm Ms. Niamh Jones!"Cassie smoothed out the wrinkles in her blouse. To qualify for the position of executive secretary, she had spent thousands of dollars on this tailored business suit."Ms. Elara said that since you've taken on the role of assistant to the vice president, you should act the part. It's work hours now—stop wandering around the company like you used to!"Niamh narrowed her eyes, glaring at the secretary who dared to challenge her. She turned around and kicked over a chair and a vase in the hallway.Niamh shot a fierce look at Cassie. "Do you want to end up like this vase?"With that, she kicked the vase toward the wall, and it shattered on impact. Niamh's gaze grew even more defiant as she stared at the secretary.Cassie remained calm, completely unfazed by Niamh's intimidation. She pulled out her phone and said to Niamh, "Ms. Elara said that if you lose your temper and damage company property, you'll have to pay triple the cost."If

Elara laughed when she heard this, but Abel held up three fingers."Harvey is offering three billion dollars!"Abel leaned on the table, his voice tinged with excitement. "If Joss Tech is acquired by Fisher Corp, we can both be on Fisher Corp's board of directors!"This was something Theodore hadn't promised the Jones family during the acquisition discussions."Here's the acquisition proposal Harvey wrote himself. Take a look," Abel said as he handed a thick proposal to Elara.The price and terms Harvey offered were very tempting to him.Elara took the proposal but didn't even glance at it. She tore off the first page and fed it into the shredder. Then, the second page, the third page—each one followed the same fate.Her movements were slow and deliberate as she fed the pages into the shredder. This proposal, which Harvey had spent all night writing, meant nothing to her.Abel was already shouting, "Elara! What are you doing?"Harvey's face was icy. He simply said, "I know you

There was nothing more painful than this! Harvey had once possessed something but never cherished it. Now that it was gone, he couldn't stop longing for it and was unable to let go.He asked Elara solemnly, "Are you sure you want to choose Theodore?"Elara replied in a businesslike tone, "We've already finalized all the details of the acquisition with Snapp Group. The official signing ceremony will take place next week."Her voice was calm and indifferent, as if Harvey meant nothing to her."Mr. Fisher, you're too late. Maybe if you had proposed acquiring Jones Group six months ago, no one would have been competing with you."But now, no matter how good your offer is, I won't accept it. Even if you could truly keep your word and not change your mind, I'd rather miss out on the three billion, five billion, or even ten billion you're offering me!"No amount of money could convince Elara to work with him. Once feelings were gone, they were hard to rebuild.It felt like thousands of

Harvey felt as if he were on a battlefield, surrounded by invisible smoke and chaos. While Finnegan's deep eyes gleamed like a beast's, radiating menace.The air in the elevator froze instantly.Finnegan growled, "Put Elara down!"He then blocked the elevator door, and Harvey knew there was no way out. So, he set Elara down.Elara clutched her chest, feeling nauseous. She wanted to vomit on Harvey, but the bile surged back down her throat. Finnegan reached out and pulled Elara behind him."Harvey Fisher, do you not know when you're not welcomed?"Finnegan silently repeated to himself several times that murder was illegal, barely suppressing the urge to crush Harvey's skull.However, Harvey showed no intention of leaving. He handed the brown envelope to Finnegan as he said, "Take a look."Finnegan frowned, unwilling to accept anything from Harvey.Elara spoke up, "Do you really think a urology record can affect my partnership with Theodore? Are you that naive?"Harvey's sharp

Theodore ignored Harvey, unsurprised by his presence. Instead, his gaze shifted over Harvey's shoulder, landing on Elara.Theodore's expression froze. His moon seemed to rush toward him, her eyes filled with concern for him.Elara walked up to Theodore and grabbed his wrist. The man looked down, surprised by Elara's grip, and his long lashes were trembling slightly.Elara turned to Theodore and said, "I know you came to see the urologist."Theodore looked at her, his dark eyes swirling with emotion. Just as he was about to speak, Elara stepped in front of him like a mother hen protecting her chick."Harvey Fisher, just stay out of our business!"Both men's expressions shifted at the same time. Theodore's lips curved into a smile, while Harvey's face darkened to the extreme.Harvey thought he could handle this calmly, but when Elara referred to their matter as "ours", and he, the ex-husband, was reduced to a complete stranger, his breathing grew labored.His hands hung limply at

Theodore was truly a frightening man! Yet Elara didn't find this off-putting.Wasn't this exactly the sort of thing he would do? She had sensed this man's calculated advances from the moment he began appearing frequently in her life.Soon, Cassie left, and Elara sat in her office chair, moving back slightly."You can come out now," she commanded.Her voice had regained its composure. "You should have recovered by now, right, Mr. Snapp?"Theodore emerged from under the desk, which had been relatively cramped for someone of his size. He blinked at her, his eyes brimming with amusement as he asked, "Was that fun?""I almost fell for you," Elara blurted out, her voice carrying a more teasing tone.The man looked slightly disappointed. "So, you didn't fall for me after all?"Persistent, he leaned forward and lowered his voice to ask, "Did it feel good when you touched me earlier?"Elara's bright eyes sparkled with light as she had to admit, "I didn't expect you'd feel so nice to to

If one word could describe Theodore, it would be "insatiable!"The spasms emanating from Elara's abdomen made her aware of the unusual sensations in her body. In the warm early summer afternoon, even the air in the office seemed to grow heavy and humid.She felt as if an electric current had struck her, sending a tingling sensation up from the base of her spine. Her lips parted slightly, and she couldn't help but feel an intense curiosity about Theodore."Why would someone like you be interested in someone like me?" Elara's voice fell from above him."Hmm? Someone like me? What kind of person am I?"Theodore looked up at her with an expression that seemed completely vulnerable, as if offering himself to be commanded by her.Seated in her office chair, Elara lowered her gaze. As she looked down at this man, a strange and subtle thrill arose in her chest.She finally understood what it meant to gaze down from a position of power. It felt as though butterflies were dancing wildly i

Harvey was annoyed by Ethel's interference in his love life. Elara's decision to divorce him undoubtedly had something to do with Ethel's meddling."I recall that Uncle Leonard has been looking after the Shelton family. Didn't the Sheltons' daughter go abroad to study with Uncle Leonard's letter of recommendation?" Harvey asked."That's ancient history," Ethel replied. "I hear she has done quite well for herself in Melcina. She's returned and taken a position at Quantum Tech under Price Nation."Harvey was about to leave, but he stopped in his tracks when he heard a certain phrase from Ethel."What position does Ms. Shelton hold at Quantum Tech?"Ethel was delighted—Harvey was showing interest in Angie.She described enthusiastically, "I heard she's highly regarded by Priscilla. Since she's joined Quantum Tech, she must be in a top position.""Isn't Elara the one in charge?" Harvey thought. He quickly realized this meant Elara's position at Quantum Tech wasn't secure.Harvey re

Perhaps it was because he had spent recent days shoveling manure for fertilizer, cleaning pigpens, and herding cattle and sheep, but Harvey's germaphobia seemed to have been cured.He crouched down and began searching through the pile of garbage.Seeing Beau standing idly nearby, he sternly commanded, "What are you standing around for? Help me look! If we don't find the stethoscope, you won't be eating dinner!"Beau finally understood the gravity of the situation. With fear and trepidation in his heart, he looked at the garbage scattered on the ground with a miserable expression."Daddy, can I at least have a pair of gloves?""Look!" Harvey roared. "If we don't find it, I'll throw you in the trash can!"For the first time, he had completely lost patience with his son. Flames seemed to shoot from his eyes, and the features of his face were tense and sharp.Beau trembled, held his breath, and crouched down. With a disgusted expression, he began searching through the garbage while

Harvey froze in shock. He pulled back the covers, finding nothing on the bed. He spun around and darted out of his room, leaving a sharp, cold breeze in his wake.Outside his room stood a bodyguard assigned by Leonard. Harvey then grabbed the bodyguard by the collar."Where's my stethoscope? Who told you to touch my stethoscope?" he demanded.The bodyguard was bewildered. He gripped Harvey's hand in displeasure. "Mr. Fisher, please calm down. I don't know what you're talking about."Hostility flashed in Harvey's eyes as he breathed heavily and questioned, "My stethoscope that I put under my pillow—who took it?"The bodyguard thought for a moment. "I did see Mr. Beau playing with a stethoscope this morning. I'm not sure where he got it from."Harvey's pupils constricted sharply. Beau had entered his room and taken his stethoscope?That little brat!Beau, dressed in a gray monk's robe, was surrounded by visitors who had come to the chapel to pray. These past few days, he had been

This time, Harvey very clearly saw Elara's face deepen from a light pink to a rich, blooming rose—visibly, and in real time.Her beauty blossomed like a peony in full bloom. Her long lashes trembled several times, and her dark eyes shimmered as if brimming with tears.She looked as if… She was lovestruck. The moment that phrase crossed Harvey's mind, he was so stunned that his eyes widened in disbelief.Was Elara suddenly getting shy because of him?A strange flutter rippled through his chest. He sat at his desk, staring at the high-definition monitor in front of him, where every detail of Elara's face—even each individual eyelash—was crystal clear.He shifted his gaze to the upper-left corner of the screen to glance at the small preview of himself.After Leonard had driven him up to the mountains, the priest at Atkina Church had given him a haircut. Since he was neither a monk nor formally ordained, it was just a close-cropped cut, not a full shaving of the head.He looked at h

Theodore's eyes gleamed like sunlight shimmering over a lake. He looked like a large dog trapped in a cage, gazing at Elara with unwavering intensity. If he had a tail, it would have been wagging wildly like a windmill spinning at full speed.Elara screamed internally. This had gone a little too far! Her eyes then dropped to the tip of her own shoe. The place she had kicked… had grown!"Oh!" She quickly jerked her foot back, only to feel her body tip backward uncontrollably.Just as she was about to fall, Theodore reached out and grabbed her ankle.The moment his fingers touched her skin, her heart skipped a beat. Theodore pulled her back toward the desk.Elara froze in place like a statue. Her entire body was tense, her eyes were wide, and her pupils were unfocused."Elara, what's wrong?"Harvey had seen her suddenly lose her balance and fall backward. It startled him so badly, he looked as if he wanted to jump through the screen.A wave of helplessness washed over him. Luckil

Elara looked under the desk. What on earth was going on?Meanwhile, Harvey observed Elara in her formal women's suit on the computer screen—an attire he'd never seen her wear before.Her hair was pulled back into a bun secured by a simple ebony hairpin. A few strands, gilded by sunlight, curled against her porcelain cheeks.Though she appeared to be looking down at something, Harvey's gaze and thoughts remained completely captivated by her face. Only months had passed since their divorce, yet seeing her now felt like encountering someone from another lifetime.Had time stretched endlessly during his days at Atkina Church?"El—" Harvey's throat tightened as if stuffed with paper.But he quickly regained his usual composed tone. "Elara—no, I should address you as Ms. Jones now. Had Sam not called me, I wouldn't have known you'd assumed Quantum Tech's CEO position."His voice carried that innate condescension of the privileged, laced with unmistakable mockery."Why are you hiding

Elara stood still as she gazed at the tall, distinguished man before her. Meanwhile, Theodore looked up and smiled at her against the light."Why are you so far away?"Elara stepped toward him, teasing lightly, "I wanted a good look at you.""Then you'll need to come closer." Theodore leaned forward, closing the distance between them.Though she stopped a step away, their faces nearly touched. Elara instinctively held her breath as her eyes locked on him."Can you see clearly now?" Theodore asked."Mm," Elara replied."And?""So handsome." Elara praised him sincerely. "You're one of the most attractive men I've ever seen!"She truly meant it. Theodore chuckled through his nose. She'd seen plenty of handsome men in her life—Finnegan, Harvey, and Leonard. Especially Leonard, whose looks even made Theodore feel somewhat threatened."My face is the least remarkable part of me." He declared confidently.Images of those shirtless photos Theodore had sent flashed through Elara's mi
