Jade, who felt embarrassed as Colin praised her, told him with a smile, "Professor, please don't say that. This is inseparable from everyone's efforts."The others laughed upon hearing her words.At that moment, Jade's phone rang, and she saw that it was Lloyd calling. She seemed to know what he wanted to say and pressed the reject button directly.Unexpectedly, Lloyd had thick skin. He called again after his first attempt was rejected.Jade had no choice but to answer the phone. "What is it?"She didn't have the slightest bit of goodwill when it came to Lloyd. If she had seen his true colors earlier, she wouldn't have been hurt so badly."Are you coming down, or should I come up?" Lloyd knew Jade didn't want to see him, so he resorted to stubbornness.Jade wasn't afraid of him, so she snickered into the phone. "What, are you threatening me now?""I wouldn't dare. I just want to have a meal with you. That's not too much to ask, is it?" Lloyd continued. "I'm downstairs waiting f

It was precisely because of how powerful Phantom was that Lloyd treated it as the company's top secret. Except for him and a few senior executives, no one else knew about its existence. But not only did Neve know about it, she also wanted it. What exactly did she intend to do?"How did you find out?" Lloyd's face was twisted with shock, his gaze on Neve cautious.Neve, however, just smiled charmingly. "Darling, money is a wonderful thing. It can fulfill all my desires."Knowing there was a mole within the company filled Lloyd with an indescribable feeling. The people he had worked with until now were people he trusted. Yet, they had easily betrayed him for money, which was truly laughable."No way." Lloyd immediately rejected Neve's request. Once Phantom appeared, it would surely bring endless trouble.Neve wasn't in a hurry to get it. Instead, she patiently told Lloyd, "Lloyd, don't rush to refuse. I want Phantom entirely for you. Haven't you always wanted Jade? As long as you

Seeing Neve lose her composure so easily, Jacob gave her a nudge, thinking she was useless."Jade, why are you looking at us like that?" Jacob tried to appear sorrowful. "We're all sad about Grandma's accident. I used to be a jerk, but I'm her grandson. Her accident has hit me harder than anyone else."Jacob wiped away his crocodile tears. If Jade didn't know his true nature, she might have believed him."It's good that you think that way," Jade said lightly.Neve chimed in. "Things are what they are now, and we have to accept them. The doctors still can't find out why Grandma collapsed or when she'll wake up. As her grandchildren, we can't just sit idly by.""What do you suggest?" Jacob and Neve started performing a double act."Taking care of Grandma is our responsibility. I suggest we take turns. One person per day," Neve proposed.Jacob nodded. "I agree."He looked at Jade and asked, "What do you think, Jade?"The fact that they had come up with a plan to take care of Leah

Jade's heart sank. How could Jacob not have taken precautions when he had made up his mind to have her? She closed her eyes, no longer struggling, as if she was resigned to her fate.Seeing this, Jacob was delighted, and his movements became slightly gentler. "My dear sister, it's good that you've come to terms with it."Suddenly, Jade raised her leg and kicked his groin. Caught off guard, Jacob howled in pain, sounding like a pig being slaughtered.Jade quickly rolled off the bed and stood on the floor, watching Jacob writhe in agony on the bed, her gaze filled with menace.The trauma he had caused her in her previous life had never disappeared. Unprecedented rage and humiliation surged through Jade.She clenched her fists tightly, her gaze falling on the flower vase on the coffee table, her resolve growing stronger."Jacob, you're nothing but scum." Jade raised the vase high, aiming it at Jacob's groin.She wanted to ensure he would never be a man again.Jacob seemed to rea

Neve screamed in fright, covering her eyes and refusing to look inside the room, afraid to see Jade's body."Keep screaming and I'll choke you to death." Owen deliberately threatened her in a rough voice. Neve trembled in fear, shutting her mouth tightly but still keeping her eyes closed."Who are you people?" Neve asked in a trembling voice.Jade walked up to Neve and asked, "Who do you think I am?""You... You're not dead?" Neve slowly opened her eyes, uncertain when she saw Jade in front of her.Her gaze fell on Jacob, who was lying on the floor unconscious, and she turned pale from fear. "What did you do to him?" "What you're seeing," Jade said vaguely, intentionally adding pressure to break down her defenses.Neve, who was terrified, shuddered as she tried to feel for Jacob's breath but dared not to."Jade, why did you deceive me into coming here?" Neve asked tearfully."How was Grandma poisoned?" Jade raised her voice, the ruthlessness in her gaze terrifying Neve."I
