For a moment, the room was extremely quiet. Jane watched everyone in the room and she knew she was done for. Her grandfather was been trampled on because of her hasty action. There was no way she was coming out of the situation without getting hurt. She might as well curry some favour from her grandpa by coming clean and humbling herself. She couldn't help saying, "Miss Alexia, you're different now. We won't dare to treat you like before. Don't worry. I admit I did this. I promise to give you a satisfactory answer."When Alexia heard Jane's words, she laughed out loud. "Oh. Pray tell what kind of satisfactory answer you can give me?"As she spoke, she looked at Jane and smiled sarcastically. "Miss Jane, how do you know that I will be satisfied with your answer?"At this time, after a few seconds of silence, Master Franks opened his mouth and said, "Alexia, we used to be a family. Let's not take this so far, Jane has made a mistake. Tell me, what do you want? As long as we can, I'll ma

Edward looked at the comments and felt a sharp pain in his heart. Veronica's words were still ringing in his ears, and the unsightly comments were flashing across his eyes.Veronica's words were like a hammer on the head. For the very first time in his life, Edward was at a loss.He narrowed his eyes and closed the comments. Then he dialled Alexia's number. However, he decided not to call in the end. The news had been on the Internet for several hours. He only found out about it after everyone in the City had seen it.Somehow, Alexia had become the 'third party' between him and Rachael. For so many years, she had been scolded as a b*tch.Having been divorced for so long, this was the first time that Edward had felt an inexplicable sense of shame. Someone who had loved him innocently for several years was been treated and bullied badly because of her wonderful and patient heart. Without hesitation, he called Robert instead.The call soon connected. Holding the phone, Robert felt a litt

As soon as Jane finished speaking, Master Franks snorted coldly. "You know you were wrong? Didn't you say that last time? But did you learn from it?""Are you aware of the Ferrero family’s background in Southern world? Are you blind or deaf? Can't you hear or see? How do you benefit if our family has a falling out with the Ferrero family? Do you think that only Alexia will be disgraced from the mess you’ve caused? Everyone else will talk about our Franks family."Master Franks became more furious as he spoke. The veins on his forehead were popping. "You are the youngest in the family. You have an elder brother. I have never asked you to make any contributions to our family. I only asked you not to not cause any trouble. I wanted Alexia and your brother to get married again, but you offended Alexia! Do you think that after what you’ve done, there are still many good families who are willing to marry your brother? If people know what you have done, which man would dare to marry you?"Ma

Just Alexia thought that everything had died down, and she was at peace at last, something happened that she thought was just fate. She was in her office when Joanna handed over an invitation. She didn’t want to attend a wedding at the moment but they organised the program and it was a socialite wedding. Not wanting to make more enemies, she took the invitation card, just as she was about opening the card, Joanna called at her and said,“Miss, it’s unfortunate that you both among a few others are among the guest of honours. If you want, I will discard the card on your behalf and inform them that you are very busy.”Alexia wondered what she was talking about but didn’t want ask questions but verify it from the card. She opened it and saw that herself and Edward were the first and second guest of honour on the card. She sneered and shook her head and whispered to herself,“I guess, not accepting the Franks apology and not attending to their request to meet to apologise is not how I can

She arrived at the counter of drinks and saw that Edward had already downed a few drinks. When he saw her, he smiled slightly a brought a toast to her after picking a drink from a waitress walking away. He took another one and handed it to her and then said to her,“Our first and last toast together. I wish you the best in life.”Alexia didn’t want to take the drink from his hand but to put a stop to everything, she took it and said,“It’s the last drink I will be taking tonight. Forgive me, but I will be leaving right after this drink.”When she said that, the bride and the groom took their drinks as well and they all clicked glasses together. The waitress didn’t leave but watched them gulp down the drinks before stepping away with a smirk on her face. No one saw her reaction and none paid her any attention, Edward was already feeling tipsy and started leaving after the drink.Alexia watched his back as he left and she waited for him to take a few steps away before following him out
