Serena’s voice was gentle but sounded urgent. Michael’s face darkened. “I’ll be there soon.”Michael walked into the coffee shop and Serena had already been waiting there for a long time. Her hair was in a high ponytail and she was wearing a simple and elegant long dress. Regardless of how she dressed up and the aura she released, Serena was like a beauty from a noble family. Michael stared at her ponytail, and his heart suddenly fluttered. He walked to the chair opposite her and sat down. “Did you wait for a long time?”“I just arrived as well.” Serena laughed and asked him considerately, “Michael, do you still drink black coffee?”Michael nodded. “Why did you need me so urgently?”Serena bit her lip and her face was a little worried. “I… Saw Christina. She’s not doing well now.”Michael did not give any further reaction and only responded with, “Mm.”Serena knew immediately that he already knew about this. Maybe he had already met up with Christina. She felt very uncomforta

Matthew randomly said the last sentence. When those words traveled into Michael’s ears, they sounded very harsh. Matthew was well-known for being a womanizer. Michael was surprised that Christina would be in contact with such a Casanova, she really did not value herself. Also, Matthew was recently attracted to a model and they were in the passionate stage. He was obviously cheating on both of them. After he thought about it, Michael curved the corner of his lips and subtly insulted him by saying, “You’re a man of many tastes, Mr. Henderson!” Matthew actually thought Michael was referring to the incident where Christina bit his hand, so he randomly replied, “I’ve no choice. I like playing with excitement. Plus, the more interesting, the better!”Michael’s expression turned completely gloomy. Matthew’s words had changed the meaning and made him extremely angry as though there were grey clouds above him. “I initially thought that Mr. Henderson was here for work. I never thought

Matthew Henderson did not bring Christina Williams back to the company after dinner. Instead, they went for a stroll at the local park and window shopping at the shopping complex. Losing her patience, Christina reminded him of the emergency meeting scheduled at 2:00 p.m. Annoyed and pissed by this, Matthew reluctantly drove back to the company.The meeting which was supposed to be 2- hour long ended in half an hour’s time. Complaining of a backache as soon as he got back to the office, he ordered Christina to give him a back rub.In the middle of the massage, an assistant delivered a document to his office. As Matthew went through the papers, his frivolous grin wiped off his face as solemnity overtook it. Christina quietly placed a cup of tea by his front desk as she stood by a far corner waiting for his orders.A moment flicked past before Matthew raised his head. “Do we have anything scheduled for tonight?”“Yes. You have been arranged to meet Director Carter from the Ministr

As the ruckus grew, so did the crowd that stood by the door to the private room. They looked on, realizing almost immediately that the duo fighting were no ordinary men as they pulled the two away from each other.They were both good fighters, yet they looked rather pitiful as blood covered their faces.Matthew Henderson’s assistant rushed over to help him up. “Are you okay, President Henderson? Do you need to go to the hospital?”Turning his head back, Matthew spat and pointed his finger at Michael Larson’s face. “I’m fine. How dare you touch my woman, Larson! Just you wait. I’ll get back to you or my name won’t be Matthew Henderson!” Michael did not bother to explain. “I’ll do just that.”With this, Matthew dragged Christina Williams out of the private room. Blood formed around his forehead and trickled down his chin. It was quite an intimidating look. Christina could see that Matthew was rather intoxicated from the fight earlier on. It was only natural if he lost to Michael

The benefits that came along with the old town redevelopment project were tremendous. All eyes were on it in hopes that they would be the chosen company. Michael Larson did the same and was hell-bent on obtaining the project.Meanwhile, Heather Sunderland had a bad feeling about this. Worried that they might not be able to win over the project, she gave Sophia Kendrick a call that afternoon. After all, the Garcias and the Larsons would be one big family after the wedding and she was hoping that her future in-laws would give them a hand on this occasion.Heather had heard John Garcia talk about this matter before and she knew that it would not be a problem for the Larsons. They were easily the most influential family in this field, and it only seemed natural that they got this project. With that in mind, she agreed to Sophia’s request without any hesitation. “Don’t worry about it. I’ll inform Johnny to spread word about this in the city council. This project will belong to Michael i
