Chapter 1541 Must Have Done Something Bad

At the entrance of the World Trade Center, Richard got out of his car and strode up the stairs. Andrew's voice came from behind. "Mr. Clark!" Richard stopped and said, "I thought I was late, but I didn't expect you to be later than me." "I'm not late. I'm on time." Andrew motioned to Richard to look at the time. "I get it. You're always punctual. You always arrive on the dot." They entered the hall as they spoke and saw Raymond sitting on the sofa. Raymond had a bandage on his head, and he looked lifeless. After Richard beckoned at Andrew, the two of them went and sat down beside Raymond, each at one side. Andrew asked first, "What happened to your forehead?" "I accidentally hit my head," Raymond replied gloomily. "You hit your head? That doesn't look like the case. Did someone hit you? Tell me honestly. Did you get beaten up for doing something wrong?" Raymond lowered his head and avoided Richard's gaze. He didn't dare to look at Richard or An

Chapter 1542 Too Ashamed To Mention

William didn't even look at Jacelyn. The bodyguards behind him went forward and stopped her. When Jacelyn saw William, she thought she could approach him. But she didn't expect to be stopped by his bodyguards. So she raised her voice and shouted, "Mr. Howard! I am the person involved in the car accident that day. There's something I want to talk to you about..." The bodyguard did not give Jacelyn a chance to continue and covered Jacelyn's mouth straight up. With the children in William's arms, William and Valeria walked past her without stopping. After the two of them left, only did the bodyguard let go of Jacelyn and warn her in a low voice, "Don't cause trouble! This is not a place for you to behave so rudely." "I didn't intend to cause trouble. I only... want to thank Mr. Howard." "You can thank him in your heart. Mr. Howard doesn't have the time to listen to your gratitude." The bodyguard didn't show Jacelyn any sympathy. "Now, please leave!"

Chapter 1543 Have You Lived Enough?

Madelyn really didn't understand why Angel would do such a thing. There was only one man in the villa, and it was Gurmisran. Needless to say, the person in Angel's room was him. "Isn't Angel going to marry Richard? Since that's the case, why did she hook up with Gurmisran?" Even if she wanted a man, she should have gone for someone younger. Why the hell would she go for an old man like Gurmisran? The more Madelyn thought about it, the angrier she became. She just stood outside and did not leave. The noise inside lasted for more than ten minutes, and it sounded like clothes ruffling. The door was then opened and Gurmisran walked out while tying his tie. He didn't expect to bump into anyone at all. He was shocked when he suddenly saw Madelyn standing at the door. While Gurmisran was in a daze, Madelyn looked inside. The light beside the bed was on, and Angel was lying on the bed motionless. Angel's shape was too weird as if she

Chapter 1544 Volunteer

In the Gurney family's villa, Evelyn called Francis early in the morning. "Grandpa, I have decided to visit you tomorrow." Francis disagreed. "Who agreed to let you come over? You are not allowed to come to B City anymore!" "I don't care and I'll come over no matter what. If you don't allow, I'll just go kill myself, since there's no point of me living anymore!" Evelyn threatened. Francis scolded angrily, "Nonsense! If you keep up the ignorance, I will make your parents lock you up." Hearing Francis's words, Evelyn hung up the phone angrily. In the past, no matter what she did, as long as she acted like a spoiled child, Francis' heart would soften down. But now he was indifferent, which was very suspicious. Could that damned woman, Azalea, be playing tricks on him? Why did her grandpa bring Azalea home? Did he take a fancy to Azalea and wanted to... No matter what, she had to go and have a look even if Francis did not allow! Evelyn's c

Chapter 1545 Enduring The Anger

In the Clark family, Anna yawned and went downstairs. When she saw Richard sitting in the living room, she said, "What a rare sight of you being in here at this hour." Richard looked up and down at Anna and said disdainfully, "I heard that you like Andrew?" "Who told you that?" Anna asked. "It does not matter who I heard it from. I just want to ask you if it's true that you like Andrew?" "More or less. I'm very satisfied with him and he likes me very much too." "How confident. Are you sure Andrew really likes you with that attitude and true colour of yours? Do you know the consequences if he found out that your gentleness and softness is fake?" "What consequences?" Anna asked. "Andrew likes gentle women and he doesn't like women who fuss. You huff all day, and you're so hot-tempered that you get into fights all the time. It would be weird if he still likes you after he found out." "Bro, why can't you see the good side in me? Valeria is

Chapter 1546 Can't Reconcile

The name 'Michael' made Anna stop in her tracks and looked at the girl in the wheelchair. The woman ignored Anna and spoke in a lowly tone, "I have something important to tell you, it's very important. Just give me five minutes." No one knew what the other person said on the other end of the phone. Azalea hurriedly begged, "Michael, I really have something urgent to tell you to. If not five minutes, then two minutes. Actually, I'm looking for you just to tell you something very important. You'll be very surprised if you hear it." Anna frowned. From her tone, it couldn't be that the woman with heavy makeup sitting in the wheelchair was Azalea, right? She stared at Azalea and looked at her again and again. Anna had seen Azalea's photos before, but recently, Azalea's people had experienced too many things that were different from the previous glorious pictures. She did not recognize her for a while. After staring at Azalea for a while, Anna finally confirmed that

Chapter 1547 Punishment and Reward

Richard pulled Anna into the car quickly and slammed the door shut. Anna straightened her neck and was not afraid at all. "Bro, I know that you are very angry and that you might wanna scold me to vent your anger. But I don't care and I won't apologize even if you do. I just wanted to hit the crap out of that bitch without any reason." Richard shook his head. "Who said that I was going to scold you? Anna, I know you hit her to avenge Abbie, so I won't punish you. Instead, I even gotta reward you." "Reward me? But isn't that Davis guy gonna sue me? Are you not mad that I created more troubles for you?" "I do, but it's two different things. I punish and reward clearly. So I will reward you for avenging Abbie, but punish you for being reckless. These two will be separated." "Bro, could you please don't reward me or punish me? Just cancel both out." "No! If I don't punish you, you won't remember!" Richard refused directly. "You never think about the conseq

Chapter 1548 Hope

Seeing hope, Azalea immediately said eagerly, "Michael, I can persuade my father to cooperate with the Davis family, so that their business can be promoted and the Davis family can advance. I can also ask my father to give me shares and dowry." "What does it have to do with the Davis family's promotion? Are you trying to please my grandpa and my mother? They want to make money for generations to come, but I don't like it. I want the Davis family to close down and let my grandfather and mother become homeless criminals! As for the shares and dowry you mentioned, hah! Are you shameless? Only the real daughter of the Gurney family has shares, so keep dreaming for an illegitimate daughter like you. Well, I have enough money now, so why do I need that much money for?" Michael was stubborn. He hated Wayne and Meadow, and was not interested in the development of money and company at all. Azalea felt a lot of pressure. How could there be anyone in the world who didn't like m

Chapter 1549 Using Sympathy

Azalea called the police. The police soon came to the hospital for an investigation and then went to the place where she was beaten to check the surveillance. On Francis' side, he arranged for public relations to start with the hot trending search online. The headlines were very exciting, especially describing that a pregnant woman had been beaten violently and cruelly. She bled on the spot and was sent to the hospital for rescue. The picture showed the close-up of Azalea's swollen face. It was also mentioned that the woman who beat up the pregnant woman was the daughter of a rich and powerful family. She was arrogant and domineering, ignoring the laws and rules. The headlines and pictures were the most eye-catching. People sympathized with the weak. When they saw that a pregnant woman was beaten like this and it was the daughter of a rich and powerful family who did it, they immediately thought it was bullying. Most of the young women were kind people, a

Chapter 1550 Alive and Kicking More

At this moment, Michael was talking to Francis on the phone. He knew that the trending search could no longer be controlled. Needless to say, Francis was the one who did this. Michael did not want to talk too much with Azalea, so he went straight to Francis. When the phone was connected, he asked Francis, "Did you arrange for the trend? What are you trying to do? Why are you trying to distort the facts? Azalea is fine, so why are you exaggerating?" "Fine? Azalea is pregnant with your child. She was beaten like this when she's pregnant. Don't you have any intention of venting your anger for her?" Francis asked. "She did such a murderous thing and the girl from the Clark family only slapped her a few times. It's much better than her killing someone. The slap means nothing!" "Killing someone? Michael, you're a lawyer yourself, and your words must be justified with evidece! Or else, I can sue you for slander!" Francis spoke in a bad tone. "Sue me for slander?
