Alfred walked into the hospital ward, staring fixedly at the man lying on the bed."Huh," he scoffed, then stayed silent.He hadn't thought much of it when he heard that Mortimer had gotten into a car accident. At most, the man had some bad scratches, but after hearing from the doctor that Mortimer was in a coma from the accident, he didn't know what to feel.A coma…No one could've imagined Mortimer Faust, that proud, selfish man, would end up in that state. Alfred really was speechless.The door opened, and in came a familiar face, though it was the first time they had met in person."Heard he's a vegetable now." Max Pearson walked in. He had just gotten off a flight that was supposed to take him straight to Jade. He hadn't considered paying Mortimer a visit until hearing what happened.Alfred frowned. "Are you still keen on your revenge with him like this?""Revenge? What revenge do I need to take?" Max scoffed. Sure, his mother had cheated on his father with Mortimer, and y

While Jenny and Alec were talking over the phone, trouble was brewing on the other side of the city.A menacing man lounged back in his chair, gazing intently at the pictures on his phone. "Are you certain?" he asked his bodyguard.The bodyguard nodded. "Yes, sir. The old man is one of the few who left the family those years ago. That's his grandson. He's achieved quite the success in Parrington."The man in the lounge switched off his phone. "What do you think their intentions are, these…strays? Why come back now after they left all those years ago?"The bodyguard stayed silent, not daring to suggest anything."Heh. For power, obviously. They think they're losing strength, so they're crawling back for help. I wonder what makes them think the family will help them," the man snorted, ignoring the guard.He was incredibly pissed right now. He should've been next in line to take over the family, but then their family elder put out the order to recall all family members, even the on

"Miss Jolene," Philippa greeted cheerfully, walking into Jolene's office on the 17th floor. "Here are the documents you wanted.""Mm. You can leave it there." Jolene nodded at the table. "How long have you been working here?""Two months, miss," Philippa reported, fearful she might get picked on because of it. She'd heard Jolene was tough to handle. Surprisingly, the woman only smiled.Two months was a good time; not too new, not too experienced either. Philippa would be of good use to Jolene in the coming days. "Not bad. Work hard, and I'll make sure you get your worth," she praised, then unclasped the bangle on her wrist, placing it on the desk. "Here, a gift. Take it."Philippa gazed at her in shock. "I can't possibly, miss—""I said take it," Jolene snapped. "You're my assistant, and my assistant should be able to own fine things."Philippa bit back her refusal and hurriedly tucked the bracelet into her bag with gratitude.Jolene hissed internally at the sight. That bangle

Jenny tried her best to ignore Jolene throughout the meal, but her half-sister kept throwing insults across the room now and then. If only she could switch off her hearing."You should have greeted me politely when you saw me earlier. After all, I'm a manager, and you're just a lowly saleswoman. Anyway, I'll let this go just once since you're my big sister. But keep that in mind next time," Jolene shot out again after Jenny ignored her the nth time.Jenny's colleagues all shot each other helpless, annoyed looks. "Now she's done it," Jenny thought. She sighed and turned to Jolene. "Did you forget to take your psych meds, or are you just plain dumb?"Her response had everyone tense up in shock. None of them had expected Jenny to be so blatant."What did you say to me?" Jolene stood up angrily, not expecting Jenny to speak to her like that in public. "How dare you?!" she screeched, pointing her finger at Jenny.Jenny left her table and went up to her. "I just do. What are you going t

Jade clocked out from Jeneration Group once she was done with her work. There was barely anyone out and about in the streets anymore. She sighed and was prepared to hail a taxi when a white luxury car stopped before her. Her expression fell the moment she recognized it.The car doors opened, revealing a man and a woman Jade knew very well."What are you doing back in Bardoff City, Jade Weston?" The woman asked, hooking her arm around the man.Jade sneered. She was Maria Biscotti, her best friend, once upon a time. The man she was holding was none other than Hayden Lowe, the man she had deeply loved long ago. These two people had betrayed her trust, forcing her to divorce Hayden without taking even a cent for alimony, and even made her leave the city.Jade ignored them and walked off, but the two swiftly caught up with her. Hayden even grabbed her wrist, dragging her back. "You said you'd never come back to Bardoff, Jade. What are you doing here now? Having second thoughts?"Jade b
