Although I was vexed by Hayley's attitude, I wasn't angry at all. After all, the purpose of the fashion show has changed to showcase her, and it was specifically orchestrated for her.

If she's unwilling to cooperate and get a dress custom-made, then in the end, she'll have nothing to wear and can't perform on stage.

The one who is at a loss is still her, right?

She merely wanted to show me her power but she didn't realize that by using such a lowly method, she was only putting herself in a disadvantageous position.

I'd like to see who will win this tug-of-war in the end.

When I got back, Kent was already in my office. The look on his face was kind of gloomy.

Seeing me come in, he popped a candy in his mouth, sucking on it, he looked anxious like he was waiting for me, for a while, he folded his hands and put them on the desk, looking at me:

"You've been to the set?"

I made an affirmative hum. He asked again,

"Did you quarrel with Hailey?"

I ignored his question, only asking,

    Kent didn't say a word but he seemed slightly distressed, he asked me, "Such a huge incident happened here, why didn't you tell me?"I raised an eyebrow, sneering in defiance:"No matter how big the incident is, it has nothing to do with you... Oh, I was wrong, it does concern you. Given how much you cherish Hailey right now, and we had her brother, Hill, beaten up badly and even sent away. Heh, what are you still doing here? You should be rushing to get him out, or else when Hailey comes knocking, you'll still have to back down on your trading terms?"The light in Kent’s eyes deepened. He stared at me for a while and laughed, he reached his hand out to pinch my face: "Still angry?”I turned my face away: "No."He got up from the couch: "Let's go, let's go home."I whispered, "Emilia hasn't woken up. I am worried."He glanced upstairs, "Ben is here, he will take care of her. You don't have to be here as a third wheel, it’s quite annoying."He tried to hold my hand, but I evaded it

    Ben asked again, "Who is your boss?"Hill laughed, "Our boss is, of course, the 'Big boss' who controls this territory. He has a nickname in the underworld. Seeing how well you are doing, Brother, you should know, right?"The corner of Ben's eyebrow raised. He gave a signal to his bodyguard, who understood, grabbed Hill's arm, and pulled up his sleeve, revealing a crow-colored tattoo resembling wind-filled sails.I didn't feel anything about this tattoo. It was merely a guess that it should be the emblem of some organization. But Emilia was particularly excited and shot up from the sofa.Everyone was looking at her. Ben was also watching her, leaning slightly forward as if he was about to hold her in his arms the next moment.I pulled at her, "What's the matter?"She came back to her senses and forced a smile, "Nothing."She sat down.Ben asked Hill again, "What kind of 'lesson' does your boss want to teach my woman?"He chuckled and began to act arrogantly, "Well, I can't say.

    I was about to get to Emilia's Building when I noticed the security man arguing and fighting with some mean-looking menI looked well and I was shocked to see Hill amongst them. The Caine family has been passing down their lineage through male heirs for five generations. However, when it got to the Fifth generation, there were no sons, hence the family left their daughter at home, and married off their daughter to my dad to carry on the family line. They had two children: a brother and sister named Hailey and HillHailey might have been a pampered and spoiled little missy, but Hill was a real darling who garnered all the love and attention within the family.And yet, this so-called adored prodigy of the Caine family refused to behave and strive forward. He was involved in all sorts of wrongdoings and hung out with the wrong crowd daily.Still, these were mere rumors since I'd never had face-to-face interactions with him before, just like how I hadn't met Hailey personally before.S

    He lit a cigarette, smoking deeply, one puff after another, inhaling forcefully. He sucked in a breath, then exhaled the white smoke roughly; his irritation was more prominent than usual. This was the second time I'm seeing him smoking. And I find it strange, or maybe he is under too many stress. He squinted his eyes, telling me, "Come here."I shook my head. "I'll stand here and listen to what you have to say."We had agreed before that this lingerie show was supposed to boost the recognition of the new design department. But now, they want me to serve Hayley, who was just using me to hype her fame.I would not accept this.Even if she held what we wanted in her hand, I could not swallow my pride for it.The silence continued briefly.Suddenly, he chuckled, stubbed his cigarette in the ashtray, stood up, and walked towards me. His tall figure quickly overshadowed me, and embarrassingly, my heart rate increased.But in the end, he did not touch me; he just stood a meter away from me

    I'm sitting in the passenger seat, the car slowly advancing. My mood is low, I feel pressured, and honestly, I'm very uncomfortable.The Long family has now collapsed, and Jared has disappeared. Leila, a sheltered rich lady with a mentally ill mother, where can she turn now?With Kent's current power, it should be easy for him to find them. After all, these matters didn't take much effort to dig out, even for Ben.But now, he has been beating around the bush, advising me again and again to stop looking.I don’t understand his intentions. But one thing is clear: he does not want to continue searching for them. If it's like that, I won't force him to.At the moment, I have no contacts to help me; I can only shelve this matter for now. Jared hasn't fallen into the law's net yet; I'll wait for a chance in the future to personally ask him.What I didn't expect was that, following this event, there were even more unexpected things to come.Having temporarily dropped the investigation into

    After returning to New York, apart from rushing back to the company to deal with the piled-up work, I did not forget the matter that I had been worrying about. How could I, when that is all I could think when I find myself alone. One was to pay keen attention to Emilia's situation. She was adamant the last time she spoke, saying she wanted to have an abortion, but she hadn't managed to carry it out by the time we returned to the city.Ben had placed her under surveillance. He had dispatched several black-clad bodyguards to keep watch over her night and day, preventing her from finding any chance to abort the child.Ben says, "Even if the child is deformed, it is still my child, and I will accept it."This approach could be deemed very radical, causing her to resent him even more. When I met with him, his face was seemingly indifferent."Sister-in-law, I've been a libertine for more than twenty years now, and I've never been so serious about a girl before. I'm serious about Emilia.I

    Kent took me out, bringing along a surfboard for us to go surfing. As I hugged his waist tightly, allowing the surfboard he controlled to smash into the billowing waves, I couldn't help but conjure up an image of that day when I was kidnapped by Jared: how he used the surfboard to miraculously arrive in front of me, saving me at that moment.We returned from surfing, and it was already night. Afterward, we climbed to the rooftop of the hotel. From this height of thirty-something stories, the night view of the entire island was in full view. The refreshing wind blew, and the stars in the sky seemed so close as if one could reach out to touch them.His countenance was hidden in the darkness, not visible, but as I leaned into his embrace, I could hear his erratic heartbeat. I couldn't help but imagine his heart beating only for me. I hugged his waist. Breathed in and sighed in relief, I never imagined we would be at peace, locked in each other, embrace, without a care in the world. "H

    Kent carried me into the bathroom.He got the bathing essentials ready and scrubbed my whole body clean. After drying me off, he carried me back out.My hair was still dripping wet, but fortunately, it wasn't long anymore; it was short now. Kent got a hairdryer and dried my hair for me. It didn't take long."Be good and sleep first. I'm going to take a shower."After settling me down, he returned to the bathroom to wash up. I was indeed very tired and had just found a comfortable position to sleep in when suddenly, I heard a familiar ringtone.It was from his cell phone. And the caller was Hayley. I stared at the screen intently for a good ten seconds or so.The sound of water in the bathroom suddenly stopped. He was done bathing.I held onto the phone and watched him.He frowned, wiped off the water droplets from his body and asked me, "Whose call is it?"I said, "Hayley's."He looked indifferent, "Then you can answer it."I responded with a nod and put the call on speaker.She on t
