She was reluctant to speculate on the relationship between Edward Maugham and Hua Mian.But she had to talk to him about finding a lawyer for Freda Patrick.So, this meeting was necessary. She couldn't wait until he came home.Selena Patrick composed herself, smiled, and walked towards him, "Mr. Maugham."Her smile was like the blooming lilac in spring, swaying and enchanting.Edward Maugham was taken aback. Just as he was about to speak, Hua Mian, who was beside him, laughed and said, "Where did this little girl come from? Did she come to hold you responsible for something?""Mr. Maugham, I have an urgent matter to discuss with you. Can we step aside for a moment?"Edward Maugham glanced at Hua Mian, "You go to my office and wait for me.""Alright."Hua Mian sashayed away.Edward Maugham began to explain, "Wife, don't misunderstand. She and I...""I have something important to say." Her matter was more pressing; his relationship with her was not important at the moment."I

Upon arriving at the company, Selena Patrick received an anonymous text message. The phone number was hidden.The content: Your mother was killed by your father.These seven short words shattered all of Selena Patrick's imagined truths.Who sent this message? How credible is it? Is it a prank or something else?She was distracted for the entire morning. So, she called Li Zian."How is my father doing? Didn't you say he showed signs of waking up a while ago?"Li Zian had just visited Edgar Patrick a few days ago. "I was just about to tell you. Your father is doing well; he has woken up, but he can't speak yet. His consciousness is gradually recovering, and there are no major issues.""Really?" She straightened up from her chair, excited. "My father really woke up?""He's conscious. I've communicated with him, and he responds when I speak to him." This state is already a miracle."Really?" Selena Patrick wanted to fly back immediately. "I'll go back as soon as possible. Thank yo

"Director Shen... Oh, no, Vice President Shen, I can make an exception for you." Xiu Qi glanced at the chair across from him. "Sit down and let's talk.""President Xiu." Selena Patrick didn't want to waste her boss's time, so she got straight to the point. "I want to ask about the reason for my promotion...""A promotion doesn't need a reason. If I think you deserve it, then you do."Xiu Qi was clearly saying that he had the final say on promotions, and asking for a reason was pointless.Such an unorthodox personnel decision wouldn't sit well with Selena Patrick. "I don't think I deserve it.""Oh? Then tell me, why not?" Xiu Qi asked, looking relaxed.Selena Patrick spoke honestly, "I haven't been with the company long, and I haven't produced any notable designs yet. I've never even attended a press conference. Promoting me to vice president out of the blue would make me think that there was some kind of deal when you took over Mr. Maugham's shares."Xiu Qi was taken aback for a

After hanging up the phone, Huo Yanteng glanced back at the direction of the ward and then walked out of the hospital. The distance from this hospital to Huo Nanqing's home in M Country was not too far, just a drive of about ten minutes.Since Huo Yanteng could remember, Huo Nanqing had spent more time abroad than in the country. As for when she got entangled with Edgar Patrick, he still hadn't figured it out. It seemed that there were some things he needed to ask clearly.The car sped down the foreign roads. At the end of the asphalt road, perhaps there lay the truth, or perhaps confusion. Huo Yanteng's face was not relaxed, his interlocked fingers also unusually tense.Under the dense branches, the sun was blocked, and even at noon, a cool breeze blew. Huo Yiyi stood at the door, hesitating to step forward under Huo Yanteng's grim expression. She only called out softly, "Second Brother."Huo Yanteng frowned, glancing at her coldly, and even somewhat disdainfully, bypassed her, an

Huo Nanqing was Edward Maugham's aunt.Her own father had been involved with Edward Maugham's aunt for over a decade, even up to twenty years ago."Why? Why did you have an affair with Huo Nanqing? If you loved each other, you could have divorced and started a new family. Why did it have to come at the cost of my mother's life? Why? Why...?""I'm sorry..." Edgar Patrick wept.Edward Maugham pushed open the ward door, catching the woman who was about to collapse, and took one look at the man on the bed, his face streaked with tears, before he scooped up Selena Patrick and carried her out of the room horizontally.Selena Patrick fell ill.She slept in a daze, barely conscious.Arno Wright, standing by the bedside, glanced at Edward Maugham, whose brows were deeply furrowed, and said softly, "Let's step outside for a moment."They left the ward and went to the hospital's visitor area.Smoking was not allowed here, so Arno Wright ordered two cups of coffee."I guess you already k
