Semua Bab Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back: Bab 211 - Bab 220

What was Heather's handmade dress doing here?Liesel's gaze sharpened. When she looked up, her eyes met with Natalie's gloating face. Immediately, she understood what happened.The bid for the dress had already reached three million dollars. Liesel raised her paddle and called her bid. Heather's dress couldn't end up in the hands of an outsider.From afar, Natalie saw Liesel's expression turn to ice. Coquettishly, she shook Jacob's arm. "Jake, I really like that dress. Can you win it for me?"Heather's dress…Jacob pursed his lips while saying nothing. Natalie blinked innocently and continued, "Jake, do you not want to win this dress because of Liesel? I don't think she'd mind."Actually, she already had a grasp on Jacob's personality; he was unwilling to admit his feelings for Liesel. She had only brought it up knowing that Jacob would rebuke it. Or perhaps, in order to prove that he didn't feel anything for Liesel, he would get the dress for her.As she expected, Jacob's gaze

Xavier put on a warm smile.But in the end, he was still young. He couldn't hide the yearning and sorrow in the depths of his eyes.Waiting tables had already become second nature for him. He couldn't even count how many part-time jobs he'd taken up.If this was in the past, Liesel wouldn't have thought that this was a big deal. But now… the college entrance exam was right around the corner, yet he wasn't studying at home. Instead, he was here at an auction, waiting on guests.Something wasn't right.Liesel's gaze darkened slightly. She fixed her gaze on Xavier. "Xavier, you have to remember that you have an exam coming up."Stunned, Xavier nodded. "Ms. Sharp, is that matter settled now?" he asked out of concern. It was evident that he'd been paying attention to Liesel's affairs.Liesel looked relieved. "It's settled now. You'll be able to see the billion-dollar scam behind that financial scheme soon."Then, she glanced at her watch. "It's getting late. I'm going to ask the m

Xavier gave her a cold look. Picking up his bag, he tried to leave. However, as he passed by Natalie, she hooked a finger around his bag strap."Xavier, don't be in a hurry to leave. Why are you so panicked and afraid? Have you been found out? Or are you in a hurry to ask Liesel to save you?"Natalie sidled up to him, encircling him like a venomous snake. Her face was adorned with a mild smile, but there was an icy vibe in the depths of her eyes. "Liesel can't even save herself, so how would she have the energy to save you?"Covering her mouth, she giggled. "Do you think that Liesel comes from some kind of nobility? Her mother died at a young age. In the years after, she grew up meek and obedient. Finally, she met a decent man, but he abandoned her. I'm sure you've heard that she has Elijah by her side now."Her gaze turned ruthless. "You might not know about Elijah's reputation in the industry, but he's a notorious womanizer. The only reason Liesel is attaching herself to him is b

Sky tried to run away, but the bodyguards grabbed him by the arm. Then, they yanked him aside forcefully and threw him to the floor.Zack was shivering from head to toe, but he still managed to say in a harsh tone, "Who are you? I'm educating my son. How dare you get involved? Watch yourself, or I'm going to call the police and have you thugs arrested!"Xavier hid in a corner. Looking up at Zack's ferocious expression, he said in an indifferent tone, "Will you call the cops to let them know that you're forcing me to take the college entrance exams on someone's behalf?""Shut your mouth!" Zack's face turned bright red. He was about to pounce on Xavier when the bodyguard seized him by the arms at the right moment and pressed him to the floor.Liesel watched this situation unfold with an icy gaze. The father and son were jumping up and down like monkeys."Did you say that you were educating your son? Since when was my biological brother your son?" Liesel said with a dangerous chill i

Jordan was worried that he'd agitate Liesel even more by asking questions. Thus, he didn't say much but instead deftly changed the subject. "I've already cascaded the order. Neal and I are preparing for the financial summit. There's a foreign company working on smart devices that I'm sure you'd be interested in—""You guys can make the call." Right now, Liesel wasn't in the mood to talk about work.If she didn't even want to talk about business, then she must have been very emotionally affected. Jordan fell quiet and didn't bring up the topic again.Liesel hung up the phone. She slowly shifted her gaze to Zack and Sky. In a calm yet chilling voice, she said, "Take them back. Once we've found out everything, I'll naturally take them to the place they deserve to go.""You can't do this to us!" Zack was shaking. He was obviously scared of the retaliation he'd face if Liesel managed to dig up even more dirt. "This is kidnapping and imprisonment! You're violating our personal freedom!"
