This scar went back to when Ezekiel was 11. Rowena had falsely accused him of stealing money.Determined to "teach him a lesson", Leonard had him stripped naked. After dragging him into the driveway, he flogged him in front of all the maids.Even then, the furious Leonard wasn't done. He pressed the glowing tip of his cigar against Ezekiel's wrist.The searing hiss and the bitter smell of scorched flesh became a nightmare that would follow Ezekiel for the rest of his life.Even now, he never dared set foot inside a barbecue restaurant.Seeing Ezekiel remain silent, Susan went on, "Your father knows you still don't have a girlfriend and is concerned about your future. He mentioned he'd be watching for suitable young women among Jeston's elite."He'll inform you if he finds someone appropriate. When that time comes, make sure you meet her. Don't let your father's efforts go to waste.""I'm not interested," Ezekiel said flatly. "Work already keeps me occupied. I have no time for ro

Nigel waited in the conference room for more than half an hour before Joshua finally showed up."I'm terribly sorry, Mr. Everhart. Mr. Stroud has just wrapped up an important meeting. You caught him at a bad time," Sean said, a knowing smile tugging at his lips."Haha, it's no trouble at all." Though Nigel returned the smile, every fiber of him bristled with rage.He had personally called Joshua two days earlier to set the meeting, yet when the moment arrived, Joshua still left him waiting.It was obvious Joshua didn't take him seriously at all. This was a deliberate act of humiliation.Joshua sank into the chair gracefully, one leg draped over the other. He glanced at his watch, his slightly furrowed brow betraying his impatience."I've already said everything that needed to be said when we met at Everlast. Mr. Everhart, since you've come here personally, can I take it that you've decided to accept Stroud Group's offer?"Thirty million dollars for two patents was outright robbe

Winter was relentless and overbearing, showing no hint of respect for Nigel as her elder. A surge of anger flared within him. Swallowing it down, he seized Winter and pulled her into the car.After driving for some distance, the car stopped in a deserted alley.At last, Nigel spoke, a note of helplessness threading his voice. "Win, I did sell the patents to Stroud Group, but you have to understand—"Winter's chest rose and fell. The emotions she had kept bottled up made her voice tremble."Didn't you promise me a week? There are still three days left. How could you go back on your word?""Win, I can wait for you, but the hundreds of employees at Everlast Tech depend on their paychecks to support their families. How can they possibly wait?""Win," Nigel continued earnestly, "you've been sheltered by your mother all your life and know little of the world. As the young mistress of the Stroud family, you've lived in comfort. How could you possibly know what true suffering feels like?

With that, Winter stepped out of the car. Slender and poised, she radiated a quiet, unyielding pride. Before long, she vanished into the biting wind."Damn, Win's just like my stubborn sister. It's as if they were carved from the same mold."Nigel's eyes narrowed, his gaze cold and brooding."Mr. Everhart, Ms. Everhart has been away for years. How can she just show up now and ask for the CEO position? She really doesn't hold back, does she?" Tony complained indignantly."She may be Madam Everhart's daughter, but the company's success now rests entirely on your efforts. It almost seemed as though she were holding you responsible. What an ungrateful brat.""Ungrateful brat?" Nigel clicked his tongue in annoyance. "Win's the only child my sister left behind. No matter what, she remains the heiress of the Everhart family. Choose your words carefully.""Yes, sir…" Tony bowed his head, looking embarrassed."Everlast is a total mess at the moment. Do you think I don't want to cut it lo

These past few days, Joshua had returned to Rippleview Court. In the grand villa, Winter's graceful figure was nowhere to be seen.Time and again, he felt an aching emptiness, as if his chest had been hollowed out. Yet whenever he saw Winter, he found himself striking at her with the harshest words.Though bound by the title of husband and wife, they were strangers to one another. He and Winter had never experienced real intimacy before their marriage turned into a frozen wasteland.Joshua gritted his teeth in frustration."Joshua, are you sure you don't want your lover to step aside? I can be very harsh with my words."Before they had a chance to respond, Winter struck with full force."You two troublemakers from hell plotted to steal my mother's patents. After reaping the rewards, you acted innocent. You even had the audacity to dismiss decades of her achievements as worthless. I've never seen anyone so shameless as you both.""Winter, how can you say that? That's practically
