The moment it was noon, Larissa received Dylan's call. He was already waiting for her in Regal Dynasty's café with Mr. Sharpe, and with them was an important witness, Maria Durham. Because there was no challenge as to how this case would end, they were all pretty relaxed.Mr. Sharpe only emphasized a couple of points that Larissa and Maria needed to be clear on during their testimony. When they expressed their understanding, he did not say more.Maria, however, excitedly chatted with Larissa."Larissa, you and Kevan are such lucky stars! After my husband and I went to visit you in the hospital, my husband got a salary increment within two days! And it's twice the original amount! The boss said it was a commendation for his many years of effort in the company and even said that his performance warranted a better post. But since he prefers his current post, he doesn't have to move. But when he does? He can get promoted whenever he wants! Moreover, if his team designs better work in th

Dylan and Larissa had just arrived at Microworks when Kevan called and said he needed to start a meeting now and told them to find a restaurant first."Well, I just happen to need to get a document in my office. Shall we wait a bit for him?" Dylan sought Larissa's opinion."Sure." Larissa did not mind.They took Kevan's personal elevator, and Dylan left Larissa at the presidential office before heading toward the law firm.The last time Larissa was there, she had attracted a lot of attention in the office. Everyone knew her and was aware of her relationship with Kevan. So, when she appeared, everyone tensed up and pretended to be working diligently while sneaking glances at her.Larissa could sense those looks but pretended not to notice that they were eyeing her. Walking forward in a straight line, she suddenly stopped and glanced over at the person in the cubicle next to her.There were several female employees in the presidential office, and they were all dressed in plain form

His mistress already had a child? Could it be … that he was the homewrecker instead? If so, that would explain why Kevan did not marry that person but came to her instead.Larissa's previous marriage had been ruined by a mistress, even if Travis had played a significant role in it. As a result, she harbored a deep disdain for homewreckers. At this moment, how she looked at Kevan had changed greatly. All the good feelings from living together for so long were slowly being destroyed.Kevan naturally sensed the changes in her mood, and the changes were heading in a direction that he did not anticipate at all.The disdain in her eyes was a little too obvious. It was as if she never thought of hiding it in the first place.Kevan suddenly panicked a little. He only wanted to make her jealous for a teeny bit, but he probably overdid it so much that she now suspected his character."What are you thinking of?" He asked while pretending to be calm, deliberately smiling mischievously. "You

Jay went home in a fury."Where's Mr. Reuben?" He asked the household staff, who looked uncomfortable."Mr. Reuben … went out early in the morning and has not yet returned."Jay's rage shot through the roof, and he grabbed the ashtray from the coffee table, hurling it to the floor in a fit of anger. "Call him and get him to come home! NOW!""Yes, sir!" The household staff swiftly vanished, seemingly evaporating into thin air. Hearing the noise, Annabell sashayed downstairs."What's wrong?" She hugged Jay and kissed him on the lips. "Who made you angry again?""Who else!" Even though he had a beauty in his arms, it could not extinguish Jay's flames of anger. "That failure has fucked me up for good!"Annabell was secretly delighted, but she pulled a face of concern. "Don't be angry anymore. What will you do if you've harmed your body this way? Once Reuben comes back, just talk to him nicely. Don't fight again.""The company's already fucked, and you want me to talk to him nic

Kevan had just finished a meeting when he found out from his secretary that the Cole father-and-son duo had come to find him.That was within his expectations—as a matter of fact, it was a few days later than he had expected.Right now, all of the most valuable teams in Summer Entertainment had been pilfered by him. Soon, it would turn into a third-rate film company.But this was not enough.What he wanted was for the Cole family to be finished entirely, without any possibility of making a comeback."Should anyone from Summer Entertainment come by again, just get security up and throw them out," Kevan ordered coldly.The secretary acknowledged the order nervously.…When Larissa saw Jay and Dorian checking in at the hotel lobby, she thought she was seeing things.Not daring to let them notice her, she stood quietly in the corner and observed for a while. Once they went upstairs, she ran over to the front desk to confirm what she saw. "Were those two checking in to our hotel?"
