Mr. Preston who had been silent all along suddenly reacted and took his wife into his arms, patting her back comfortingly.He had been a witness to the mental torture his wife had suffered after losing their daughter, constantly blaming herself for losing her. This self-blame would have almost evolved into full blown depression if it wasn't for the timely discovery by him and his sons.To be honest, he wasn't considered an affectionate persons, in fact, normal people would even call him indifferent. But when it came to his family, he tried to remedy that, especially after their daughter was lost.Taking this into consideration, he had gradually delegated his responsibilities to have more time to accompany his wife after she showed the signs of mild depression.Back then, although he was also in deep pain he couldn't show it because for one, his personality was just like that and two, he knew he couldn't afford to

And probably owing to the fact that he had lifted off a huge part of the burden weighing on his heart by now having a bargaining chip in the form of Selena in his hands, Mr. Anderson was feeling quite relaxed and this made him do something unlike him.He turned to gaze at Luke with an expression of satisfaction and praised him, "You did a great job in handling this matter. Well done."At his father's rare praise, Luke had just the right amount of surprise that evolved into looking deeply flattered on the surface but probably only him knew what exactly was running through his mind as of that moment.However, that aside, he still reacted pretty quickly and praised Mr. Anderson in return, "No no no, dad. This is all thanks to you, after all, if you hadn't thought of sending our men to the airport secretly while Ryan was too distracted to pay attention to our side, we would no doubt still be sitting ducks that could only passively wait for defea

Even up until this moment, Selena still couldn't quite understand how she had ended up getting kidnapped the moment she arrived in Nova City.Speaking of which, she had only gone to use the airport's restroom after landing to solve her physiological needs and after she was done, while washing her hands, she had noticed a suspicious figure covered tightly in black form head-to-toe lurking around from the mirror's reflection.The figure had made her feel strange since there wasn't that many of normal people who would wrap themselves up that tightly, not unless the person was a celebrity. Adding to the fact that the figure wasn't exactly doing anything but just stood at the restroom's door and sneakily glanced around, she had came to the conclusion that the figure was indeed a celebrity and should be hiding from fans.Probably because she had been observing quite carefully, she also came to notice that the figure seemed like a ma

Mr. Anderson was really confused as to the reason for Ryan's sudden outburst when he had been acting calm all along making him doubt if Selena wasn't that important to him after all.And to say the truth, since the moment he recognized Dan as his b*stard son, he saw the chance to permanently have Ryan stop breathing down their necks and ending up destroying the family he had spent his whole life building, a thousand times better than the temporary compromise that the capture of Selena would bring.Moreover, he couldn't be sure whether that woman was just a shield or smokescreen for Ryan, and he knew that if she wasn't, even if they hid her at the most secretive place, it wouldn't take long before Ryan found her with the great power and connections he held in his hand. Sending his men to monitor Selena and then capturing her had been a desperate plan he had thought up in the heat of the moment in the first place. It was a plan that wouldn't

The morning sun was already high up in the sky but Nina who had been writing late into the night yesterday was still not awake. However, her sleep was bound to be cut short as her mobile phone which she had placed on the bedside rang out loudly."Argh..", Nina grumbled out loud on the bed with unsatisfaction before muttering in annoyance though she still didn't open her eyes, "Justin.. Pick up your phone... It's so noisy!"It was obvious that she thought that it was her husband's phone ringing and still had no idea that he had awoken and went out long ago.She waited and waited for the phone to stop ringing but was bound to be disappointed as the phone started ringing again after a few minutes of silence. Nina could only open her eyes with great reluctance and sat up in anger planning to denounce Justin who she thought was still lying next to her on the bed.The result could very well be imagined, because the minute she turned
