Author: Summer Blossom
"So, what's this about, Mr. Atkins? Are you mad that I overstepped or mad that I ruined your chance to be a hero?" Palmer casually asked as he sat across Julian at the lunch table.

"That's not it—Macie's just my junior from college. Naturally, I'm going to side with her," Julian replied.

"Yeah? Did you ever stop to ask Macie what she wants?" Palmer shot back.

He smirked, then added, "Mr. Atkins, you're going about chasing a woman all wrong. Some women might fall for that kind of thing—where y

  • Who's the One Regretting Now?   Chapter 1009

    "I'm terribly sorry, Mr. Hale. I shouldn't have done that! I promise it won't happen again." Mitch kept his head bowed so low it looked like his neck was bent at a 30-degree angle. He waited several seconds for Elias to reprimand him, yet nothing came. Unable to help himself, he discreetly lifted his gaze and noticed that Elias was frozen in place behind the desk. "Did you just… say that Alice liked me?" Elias asked.Mitch was perplexed. "Did you not realize that, Mr. Hale?"Elias let the silence speak for him. Mitch explained all the little things Alice had been doing lately and how she had clearly shown up that day dressed as if she were going on a date. Elias recalled her thin high heels. She was well aware that they would be on their feet all day, yet she still wore those uncomfortable shoes. He had initially thought that she was planning to meet someone else. However, when he inquired, she said she didn't have any other plans.Elias fell silent. Mitch sneaked a look at hi

    By the time Alice arrived home that evening, Sean happened to step out of his study. He noticed the gift bag in her hand and teased, "Did Elias buy that for you?"The corner of her lips twitched. "I wish. It's just a freebie from the restaurant.""Then why did you bring it home?" he inquired.She lowered her head and took a look at it. "Great question. Why did I bring it home? I should've chucked it into the bin…" she brooded. Alice let out a heavy sigh and returned to her room. Sean watched her dejected figure disappear down the hall. It looked like things had gone terribly for her that day.He thought about how she had dolled herself up that morning, brimming with hope, and how much effort she had put in beforehand, and decided that it was time he had a word with Elias. So, he fished out his phone, pulled up his chat box with Elias, and sent him a message.…Meanwhile, Elias quietly read Sean's text at the hospital. Sean had asked him if he had any feelings for Alice. If

    "It's fine. We've already placed our orders, after all," Elias said.Alice looked at him. He was as calm and composed as ever, while she was the only one sitting there, stiff with embarrassment.Realizing that she had been stressing over nothing, she gradually relaxed. Elias clearly hadn't taken it the wrong way, so she really didn't need to tie herself in knots.Still, she noticed Elias pick up his phone. He looked like he was texting someone, but she couldn't see what he was typing. So, she lowered her head and pretended to listen to the piano melody drifting through the restaurant, though she wasn't in the mood to appreciate it. She discreetly sent a message to Macie.Elias soon received Mitch's reply. "I'm so sorry, Mr. Hale! I had no idea that place was a romantic restaurant. Its name was so vague that I assumed it was a regular one."Elias' expression dimmed with mild exasperation. The waiter had clearly mentioned that the reservation included a piano performance, and it w

  • Who's the One Regretting Now?   Chapter 1006

    Elias asked, "Are you not going to work anymore? Sean told me you were going to learn business from him."The moment he brought that up, all she could think about was how she had nodded off in the middle of that meeting. For a second, she wished that the ground could swallow her whole. The worst part was, it wouldn't have been so embarrassing if she had actually gone there to learn. However, the reality was, she had gone there to hit on a man. Now, the man she had wanted to hit on was standing right in front of her, asking her that question.Alice forced a smile. "I think everyone has their own strengths, and after giving business a try, I realize that I'm just not cut out for it."Elias didn't look at her, so he didn't notice how off her expression was. "When my sister recovers, you can follow her if you want to learn about business."After hearing that, she wondered, "If I followed May, wouldn't that mean I'd get to see Elias all the time? However, why did such a great opportun

    Alice was about to ask another question, but when she glanced over her shoulder and tottered on her high heels, her foot landed on a small dip in the floor, and she lost her balance and tipped to the side. Alice let out a startled yelp. Mitch reached out to catch her, but before his hand could touch her, she was already steadied. She tilted her head and caught sight of the man supporting her by the waist. His expression was as unreadable as ever as he guided her back to her feet.Before she could thank him, Elias curtly asked, "Do you think it's professional of you to leak your boss' information to an outsider?"Mitch immediately straightened up. "I'm terribly sorry, Mr. Hale. I thought it didn't fall under business intelligence. Besides, Ms. Hart isn't exactly an outsider.""Personal matters still fall under confidential information," Elias said.Mitch immediately apologized and promised not to do it again. Alice arched her brow and huffed. "Oh, come on. Don't be so stingy!

    When that thought crossed Ivy's mind, her phone rang. It was the landline from the higher-level regional office. As soon as she answered it, the person on the other end tore into her, and her face blanched. The other clerks had gathered around. They stared at the green card. Shannon, the one who had stirred up all this trouble, said, "It looks fake to me, Ivy. There's no way she could—"Before she could finish speaking, a slap landed across her cheek. "Ivy…" Shannon called out stiffly, taken aback. "Don't call me that! From now on, you're not a part of the team anymore!" Ivy snapped. "Do you have any idea who you picked a fight with? She's the heiress of Hart Group! Yet, you dared to hit on her boyfriend. You even tried to get his number. "Now, the store's being shut down because of you! I can't cover for you anymore. Bear the consequences yourself!"Shannon's mind went blank when she heard that. She didn't know how that woman could be the heiress of the Hart family. Shannon

  • Who's the One Regretting Now?   Chapter 649

    Even Elias had been fooled at first because the bond of family was just that strong. But still, why couldn't Sharon have just told the truth from the start? Even if she had done terrible things—hurt people, made mistakes—he would have made up for all of it. He would have turned the page on the pas

    Sharon even paid professionals to try to intimidate Macie. She had brushed it off as a moment of poor judgment, saying that she was just too in love with Edward. But once, twice, and now a third time? How many moments would it take before it stopped being an accident?Elias sat there, his lips pres

    Mitch said, "Mr. Fowler didn't give up and filed for an appeal. During this time, he hired people to tail his ex-wife. She caught on and reported it to the police. He was sentenced to 15 days in the detention center, and the Fowler family didn't even bother to bail him out."Hearing that, Elias was

  • Who's the One Regretting Now?   Chapter 610

    Edward froze, frowning slightly. It hadn't even crossed his mind that Elias might've stepped in because of his grandfather.Just then, his phone rang. He looked down and saw that it was Nolan calling. He answered and immediately asked, "Nolan, did my grandfather ask Elias for the antidote?""No,
