"You bastard, let me go!""I told you, if you can't kill me, I'll make you stay by my side. Alive or dead, you'll belong to me for the rest of your life," Harrison said coldly as he flung Shirley's hand aside."See? Deep down, you still can't bear to kill me. Otherwise, you wouldn't have hesitated so long.""You think I don't dare to do it? I just didn't want to taint myself with your filthy blood because I find you disgusting!""Disgusting? Do you think you're any cleaner? Sleeping your way through the entertainment industry, jumping from one wealthy heir's bed to another?" Harrison's tone was ice-cold, and his disdain was evident.Shirley trembled from head to toe. "Harrison, you're nothing but a bastard, a despicable bastard!"She raised her hand to slap him, but Harrison caught her wrist in a vice-like grip. "A bastard? Yet you still gave birth to my daughter!""That abomination—"Before Shirley could finish, Harrison's hand clamped down on her jaw, forcing her mouth open w

That was good to hear. Charles had been worried Noelle might not be able to handle it.His eyes darkened slightly as his gaze rested on Noelle. "Did you have a good dinner?"He had originally planned to accompany her tonight, but Noelle had refused. Besides, he was tied up with work and could not leave.Not to mention, Noelle had insisted on going alone; she wanted to see how Shirley truly felt about her.Although they had crossed paths before, Noelle had not been sure of Shirley's attitude. Yet after tonight, she understood a few things.Shirley did not like her. In fact, she seemed to resent or even hate her. Otherwise, Shirley would not have behaved the way she did in that setting."Of course, it was fine!" Noelle forced a smile. Yet thinking about Shirley's attitude toward her, she could not help but feel a twinge of discomfort.Even though Noelle didn't think she needed parental care anymore, the longing for family was something she could not entirely shake, no matter her a

Shirley's eyes reddened as she whimpered, "You have no right to mention him."Her voice was faint, almost inaudible, and the pain forced her to cover her mouth as tears streamed uncontrollably down her face.Harrison's chest tightened momentarily, but he reached out and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with his rough fingertips."Tell me, how could your heart be so cruel when you abandoned Noelle back then?"Shirley instinctively took a step back, but Harrison pulled her closer, leaving her no room to escape. "Maddy, running away won't solve anything.""You're not well, so rest for now," Harrison continued, his tone calm yet commanding. "Once you've recovered, I'll take you back to see your father.""No!" Shirley cried out in panic.She shook her head fervently, tears cascading down her cheeks. It was not that she did not want to go back—it was that she could not.Her father, Sebastian, despised her with every fiber of his being. He loathed her for her heartl

"What kind of information do you want?" Peter waved his hand, signaling Brandon to look for Tania, then stepped out onto the beach.Squinting against the sunlight, he asked, "He doesn't seem to have anything suspicious going on abroad. What are you worried about?""Nothing much," Sean replied with a chuckle. "So, when are you and Tania coming back? You've left that company of yours to Jamie. Aren't you afraid one day he'll swallow it whole? By then, you'll be left with nothing."Peter snorted dismissively, clearly unconcerned. "If he can take it, then I'd have to admit his skill, doesn't it?"Sean clicked his tongue. "Peter, does this mean you're not planning to come back? Got too comfortable there, huh? I bet Tania doesn't care what you're up to. But mark my words, if you keep idling like this, you'll go broke one day. Then we'll see if Tania still wants you!"Peter let out another cold laugh. "Don't you worry about me. Even if I lose everything, my wife has money. My brother-in-

Shirley merely scoffed twice. Seeing her reaction, Ellen felt a wave of awkwardness and chose to remain silent.The car quickly arrived at the parking lot. Since Royal Star had made prior arrangements, the reporters and paparazzi had no access to the area.Shirley opened the car door and stepped out, immediately noticing Harrison following behind her. Her face darkened instantly. "Why are you getting out?"Harrison smirked. "Naturally, I'm here to check out your future workplace and see what kind of environment it offers."Ignoring Shirley, he strode forward confidently.The Royal Star representative, who was waiting to receive them, noticed the middle-aged man accompanying Shirley and looked momentarily surprised. However, he refrained from commenting. "Ms. Shrill, this way, please."Harrison glanced at Shirley, whose reluctance was written all over her face, and stepped into the elevator without hesitation. Ellen followed closely behind.Shirley clenched her teeth. She began w
