It’s been twenty five minutes since the discussion started.Mostly, it was the parents talking, but their exchange was like the clamor of jackals rising and then sinking into silence in the wilderness after dusk.Russell came here knowing that it wouldn’t be an easy job, but the air condition in the living hall didn’t seem to be having any affect right now.The air in the room lost its chilly aspect, owing to the hot hearts of the people sitting there.“Let’s take a short break,” Russell said.The maids brought drinks.Everyone except Gregg consumed the drinks.“If you keep talking about the losses you’ve suffered, then you can’t come to a truce,” Russell said. “Keep the past behind. Only look ahead. Pick the solution that benefits both sides.”“The Claimer family owns 108 brands, more than half of which are known around the world,” Paul said. “We want stakes in some of those companies. In return, they can take some stakes in our coal mines.”“Nonsense,” Gareth was quick to retort. “M

Adrian and Elena came downstairs.Adrian was taking her to the surveillance room where the servers and the central wifi systems were set up.Henry met them along ehe way and talked with Adrian.“Young Master, I brought samples of all those jasmine varieties you said,” Henry said. ‘Where do you want me to have them planted?”“In the backyard where we can see it from our rooms,” Adrian said.“That’s a nice choice, Young Master,” Henry said. “Some of these flowers have a strong sweet scent, so when you open the windows, you’ll be hit with a fresh fragrance.”Elena also liked the idea. “Make sure to enrich the soil with the right amount of compost and then plant them, Mr. Henry.”“Yes, Young Lady. You can just call me Henry, for I am but a servant.”And then Adrian went to the surveillance room.Elena closely followed him and found out how quickly he could walk.When they entered the room, Elena saw an unexpected figure there.Iva Claimer!Elena’s eyes widened. What was this woman doing h

Iva saw Steward Henry overseeing some work in the backyard and came up to him. “What’s going on here? Why are you cutting down these trees?”“We’re planting jasmine plants, ma’am,” Henry said. “Young Master’s orders.”Iva looked at the jasmine flowers. The smell coming from them was exceedingly sweet. It brought a smile to her face.“Where did he find these many jasmines?"“From the Jasmine Park, ma’am.”“Ah, right. There’s that park. I didn’t know they sold these flowers,” Iva nodded. “Good. I think their fragrance will fill the whole backyard. Plant them well. I want them to grow fast and healthy.”“Yes, ma’am.”Iva then walked away.One of the maids, a brown-haired young lady with a long braid, came up to her and said, “Ma’am. I’m not sure if I should tell you this or not, but…”“What is it?”“You might scold me for saying this.”“Just say it. I won’t yell at you.”“This morning, I took bed coffee to Young Master’s fiancee,” the maid hesitantly said. “But she didn’t drink the coffe

Later that night.Ryan and Vivian had rented an apartment flat.They had been intensely going at it for the past two hours and even broke a bed in the process.“Haah…” Vivian was huffing more than she would in a sauna. “ I feel so tired now. I think I’m going to sleep like a baby tonight. You really are the best, Ryan. Why didn’t you come into my life sooner? Then I wouldn’t have had to suffer for so long with my ex-husband.”“Haha, I would do better if there isn’t much stress in our lives,” Ryan said, as they both were lying on the mattress that was now on the floor.“Just be patient until we get married. And then I’ll slowly get things under my control,” Vivian assured him.“Of course. I have no problem waiting as long as I’m with you,” he kissed her hand.She got up with effort and put her dress on, then walked up to the window. She could see Jasmine Park in the distance.“I can smell the fragrance all the way here,” she said. “It’s light, but I can feel it. But…” she smiled. “It’s

Ryan’s heart nearly lost control and stopped from fear.How the hell did Gabe come here in a couple of seconds?The distance between the park and the apartment was at least a few thousand feet. It should have been impossible for even a bullet to travel so fast.And yet, this curly-haired man somehow appeared right behind Ryan.Was this real?Or Was Ryan dreaming?“Kyaaa!” Vivian screamed in shock and fell back from the chair. “Y-You… how did you…”She must be seeing this curly-haired man, too. That’s what Ryan thought. It wasn’t just him. She saw him, too.That meant… This man was real.This confirmation did not lower Ryan’s heartbeat. It only worsened it.Gabe stood calmly. “Don’t sweat. I’m not going to kill you. I just want to know why you wanted to burn the park down.”Ryan and Vivian looked at each other.They did not feel like they could trick him. Such was his presence. They felt like he could see right through them.“Who are you?” Ryan asked. “What do you want?”“I asked the
