"Ned is to blame, not you. You did your best to protect me back then. You were the one who helped me in secret by contacting Professor Dickson. I know all about it, and I'm grateful to you from the bottom of my heart!" Angeline said to Edward.After exchanging pleasantries with Edward, Angeline picked up her glass of water and got to the point. She informed him about the situation with Bradley, who had received financial aid for impoverished students but was dressed in branded clothing."I'm wondering if there's an oversight issue with the distribution of these funds," she said, her tone gentle.She had no intention of causing trouble or suggesting the discontinuation of financial aid. "I just hope the aid goes to those who truly need it. Otherwise, it would lose its meaning," she continued.When she arranged for Vitality Biotech Group to provide this support, she specifically instructed the college to keep the list of recipients private to protect the dignity of the impoverished

His hands were clenched into fists. Based on the fragmented memories of Angeline in his mind, he knew she wasn't coming.Ned's phone inside his suit rang repeatedly. He picked up the phone with his hands, which were turning blue from the cold, and glanced at the screen. It was Ingrid.Finally, he answered, "Hello…""Ned, where are you? I've been calling you all day, and no one answered," said Ingrid while biting her lip.Her voice was slightly choked up."A box was dropped on my foot while shooting an advertisement, so the director allowed me to take half a month off. I was thinking… Maybe we could use this time to have our wedding?"Ned remained silent on the other end of the phone. A strong sense of crisis hit her, but she feigned ignorance and continued, "You know Mrs. Fletcher has always wanted us to tie the knot soon. We're not young anymore, and it's time to start a family.""Does your agency allow it?" he asked, watching the rain pour."I'll talk to Linda and the compa

Rosalinda Barr, the woman who had been accompanying Tommy, confronted the staff, saying, "What do you mean by that? Are you saying that Mr. Yates has no money?"Who do you think you're looking down on? Open your eyes wide and see clearly. This is Tommy Yates of Yates Group. How could he have no money?"She pulled Tommy aside and whispered, "Mr. Yates, there must be something wrong with their machine! Do I not know how rich you are? "I know this guy named Billy at the casino who specializes in lending money to gamblers. You just lost so much… I think it's a pity to leave now when your luck is coming your way soon."Seeing his hesitation, Rosalinda held his arm. She wore a sweet smile and said coquettishly, "Mr. Yates, I was hoping you'd win a little more so you could give me some tips! I believe in your luck!"Hearing this, Tommy grinned from ear to ear and said, "If I win back what I just lost, I'll buy you a handbag!""You're the best, Mr. Yates! I'll follow your lead and bet s

Billy maintained his smiley expression, but the tall, bulky thugs behind him appeared fierce and menacing."Okay!" said Tommy, yielding. He gritted his teeth and took out his phone to scroll through his contacts. "Come on, it's just 250 thousand dollars."After some time, he found Ingrid's number and dialed it."Hello, Tommy. Why are you calling me at this hour?" Ingrid answered happily."Ingrid, I've run into a bit of trouble. Can you lend me 250 thousand dollars? It's for an emergency," he whispered into the phone."A week ago, Uncle Henry mentioned a big project with Fletcher Corporation that needed funding. I gave him over 50 million dollars from there. If you need money now, is there a problem with the project?" she asked anxiously."Yes!" he replied. "Didn't Ned just sign a contract with Vitality Biotech Group? I heard there's a hefty penalty for breach of contract, so I don't want to cause more trouble for him.""Okay, I'll transfer it to you right away!" Not forgetting

"Of course, you're my lucky star! I'll never abandon you!" Tommy said as he caressed Lily's cheek. Hold'em had five community cards and two hole cards. The community cards were revealed to be the four of spades, the five of spades, and the seven of diamonds. The victor would be decided in just one round. Tommy had put in all his chips, and Angeline had put in all that she had left, including herself."You're going to lose for sure!" Tommy was all smiles. He had a two and a five, which would make a full house! He didn't believe that Angeline had better cards than he did. Tommy spread his cards out, and the crowd burst into applause. "It's a good hand, as expected!" "Yes! There can't be anything better than that!" "Tommy really has excellent luck!" Tommy couldn't resist kissing Lily's cheek again when he heard the crowd. "The victor hasn't been decided yet!"Angeline flipped open her cards. A six and an eight, which made a straight plus a pair. It was the best h
