After a long day at work, Yue Wang managed to finish the article and handed it over to Chris for him to check it out. The latter took the article from her and thoroughly checked through it, every single paragraph and every slight detail. "This is too verbal.""Huh?" She raised her brow, giving him a questioning look. "What I mean is that you should make the tenses simpler. I think the first written article was much easier to read than this." Chris pointed out, explaining everything she needed to make amends for in the article she had rewritten."You prefer the one written by some unknown person than mine?" Yue Wang kissed her teeth, feigning annoyance to get on his nerves.A hearty chuckle escaped Chris's lips. "That's not what I mean. Let's separate our personal lives from work, rewrite this article, and make it much easier for readers to read. Then bring the edited one over so I can send it to my secretary, it needs to reach the editor-in-chief before I can be made public." He said
At Evans Group, news reached Lawyer Raphael that Richard had declined the offer of him being the CEO's lawyer. Lawyer Raphael couldn't accept the offer either because his workload as the senior lawyer of Evans Group was too much and he enjoyed being a senior, rather than being a lawyer under the CEO. Even though it was a promotion on his part he couldn't accept it.He summoned Richard to his office and immediately the latter came, Lawyer Raphael closed his laptop and went up to meet Richard who was leaning in the door unfazed."I heard you refused to work as the CEO's lawyer." Lawyer Raphael stated, trying as much as possible to cool himself and maintain his poise."It wasn't my utter motive. I meant with the CEO and he told me to decline the offer myself." "You met with the CEO?" Lawyer Raphael asked immediately, he processed Richard's words in his head and busted into a peak of hilarious laughter. "You want to cover up with that false story?"Richard regretted in an instant why he
Richard arrived at the bar where he first met with Chris but Chris was nowhere to be found. Letting out a deep sigh, he hurried down to reserve a seat for the both of them and ordered for few drinks.He didn't realize how much time had passed and he had finished up the bottles of drinks he had ordered, luckily for him, they were non-alcoholic so he could drive without getting penalized for driving when drunk."He's not even here yet? I've been waiting for three hours now." Richard murmured, he paid the waiter and left the bar only to find Chris leaving his car as they caught sight of each other."I'm so sorry for the delay, I was caught in traffic." Chris apologized, beads of sweat already gathering on his forehead to make his excuse look real. "Shall we?" He asked as he gestured for Richard to follow him inside the bar.Richard rolled his eyes at Chris when the latter had already looked away and was heading towards the bar. He had no choice but to follow him in.When they were alread
Chris left the bar with immersed frustration and anger and even ignored the waiter who wanted to give him a VIP card for being the first to order such an expensive wine from their bar. The waiter didn't mind the fact that he was ignored he thought Chris would be back some other time and he'd eventually accept the card.Meanwhile, Chris wasn't in his right state of mind. He locked himself up in his car and didn't know if he could drive safely home. He needed time to think and was already wasted due to the hard alcohol the wine contained.Larry's name kept lingering in his head. He shook his head severally, trying to get the thought about Larry off his head. "He would be a hindrance to all my plans." He muttered under his breath, resting his head on the window, as tears threatened to fall down his eyes. He raised his sleeves and rubbed his fingers in his mother's bracelet, letting the tears from his eyes for being such a disappointment.He managed to reach his phone and called Cosmos to
The sun flickered through Chris's window. The birds chirping from his window. Chris nonchalantly removed the bedsheet from his body as he let out a sigh of exhaustion before sitting upright on his bed.A banging headache struck his head as he groaned in pain. A reminisce of the previous day flashed through his head. Larry's name haunted his thoughts. He fell back on his bed, face-palming himself. "I wish I seize to exist." He muttered under his breath.Letting out a sad smile, he took his mother's letters from the drawer. This would be the one hundredth time he had read through it and he always did so anything he was sad or felt like he had failed. With a stained cheek, Chris continued to weep over the fact that he wasn't useful after all and couldn't make his mother's wish come through and his enemies would surely win this time over him.He heard a knock on the door disrupting his moment of agony but was too lazy to stand up and open it. Chris heard the creaking sound of the door and
Chris was taken aback by Yue Wang's words. The way she seriously blurted it out made him surprise even more. "Do you know the chairman that much to conclude this way?" A low laugh escaped her lips. "Yes, I do. And I know him enough not to have any hopes about the both of us getting married. I knew he had his plans for me just as he told me.""Huh?" Chris raised his brow, Confusion etched on his face. This wasn't the Yue Wang he knew. The happy and cheerful lass seemed scary and too serious. For some reason, he blamed himself for sharing all his burden with her which he thought made her seem that way. "Can you explain? What happened between you and grandfather?""You see..." She stated as she started narrating how it all started between her and the chairman.It all started with the day he came to visit her father's company in China. It was her father Mr. Wang who invited him over for a business meeting."I'm so glad you came Mr. Conrad." Mr. Wang welcomed Chairman Conrad with a bright
Yue Wang finished with her narration, and Chris's lips opened in awe, his jaws dropped, and his breathes hitched as he didn't know his grandfather would go as far as finding a bride for him and claiming she was his bride.What was the actual test he was trying to make Chris fall into? Chris had a lot of questions flowing in his head and all these questions were about the chairman. He couldn't stand it any longer but at the same time, he couldn't do anything about it. If Yue Wang was to be his bride, he should have just said to then making it the hard way."I still can't believe this. What was his ultimate motive?" Chris massaged his temple, his brain couldn't continue the series of thoughts so they started aching, literally."I don't know myself." Yue Wang said, immediately she wanted to make addicted to her words, the grumbling of her stomach interjected, making her bury her face in Chris's pillow in embarrassment.Chris knew this wasn't the time to make jokes or laugh but he couldn'
"The lipstick on your lips is rough," Coldie said, halting in his steps as he leaned closer, pointing at the lipstick stain on the side of her lips.Embarrassment washed over her face and Chris however, spilled his hot coffee on the servants who was serving him his breakfast. Noticing the havoc he just did, he immediately apologized.The servants bowed and ran away to get her faced washed while Chris hid his face, lowering his gaze on his food as he ate in silence."Com'on, it shouldn't be that bad." Yue Wang tried to laugh it off but Cosmos remained unfazed.Chris tried to steal glances at the both of them who were in an awkward position and Yue Wang gave him some signals asking for his help but Chris was guilty for whatever Cosmos said about Yue Wang's lipstick. "Fuck! Do I have any on my lips?" He muttered under his breath, rubbing his lips with his thumb but he was relieved when his lips came out clean. He stood up from his seat and headed to where both Yue Wang and Cosmos were s
Yue Wang accepted the gift graciously, thanking Eleanor with a warm hug. "Thank you, Eleanor. It means so much to have you here with us."Eleanor's gaze shifted to Christopher, her expression softening. "You've grown into a remarkable young man, Christopher. I'm proud of the person you've become."Christopher smiled gratefully, touched by Eleanor's words. "Thank you, Eleanor. Your support has meant everything to us."As the evening wore on, Alexander grew tired from the excitement of the day. Christopher and Yue Wang retreated to the nursery with their son, settling him into his crib for a peaceful night's sleep. The nursery was bathed in soft moonlight, casting a serene glow over the room."He had such a wonderful birthday," Yue Wang murmured, brushing a gentle kiss on Alexander's forehead.Christopher nodded, his hand resting on Yue Wang's shoulder. "It was perfect. Seeing him surrounded by so much love... it's all we could ask for."They stood together in quiet contemplation, watch
"Our lives have changed so much, Christopher," Yue Wang said one afternoon, as they watched their baby sleep peacefully in his crib.Christopher nodded, his heart swelling with love. "And it's all because of you, Yue. You've given me the greatest gift."They shared a smile, their bond as strong as ever as they navigated the joys and challenges of parenthood together.As the sun set on another day at the Conrad estate, Christopher and Yue Wang stood together on the terrace, their son sleeping soundly in his nursery. The air was filled with a sense of peace and contentment, a reflection of the love that surrounded them."We have so much to be grateful for, Yue," Christopher said softly, his arm around her shoulders.Yue Wang nodded, leaning into his embrace. "Our family is everything, Christopher. I couldn't ask for more."As Christopher and Yue Wang stood together on the terrace, the tranquility of the evening enveloped them. Their newborn son, swaddled in a soft blanket, slept peacefu

Yet, beneath the surface of their busy lives, there was an undercurrent of excitement and joy as they embarked on a new chapter together—parenthood.Yue Wang's pregnancy brought a newfound sense of wonder and tenderness to their relationship. Christopher was attentive and doting, always making sure Yue Wang was comfortable and well taken care of. He would often place his hand on her growing belly, feeling the gentle movements of their unborn child, a bond forming long before they would meet face to face."I can't believe we're going to be parents," Christopher said one evening, as they sat together in the quiet of their living room, the soft glow of the fireplace casting flickering shadows on the walls.Yue Wang leaned into his embrace, her hand resting on her belly. "It's a miracle, Chr

Christopher and Yue Wang found themselves surrounded by their loved ones, each sharing stories and anecdotes that brought smiles to everyone's faces.Larry and Emily were in high spirits, animatedly discussing their latest charitable endeavors and plans for the future. Emily's eyes sparkled with admiration as she looked at Larry, her hand resting comfortably in his."I never imagined I'd find someone as passionate and caring as you," Emily said, her voice filled with affection.Larry beamed, squeezing her hand gently. "And I never thought I'd meet someone as talented and inspiring as you, Emily."Chairman Conrad and Eleanor sat nearby, their presence a beacon of wisdom and warmth. Eleanor, with her gracious demeanor, effortlessly integrated into the Conrad family, bringing a sense of joy and harmony."Christopher, Yue, I'm so grateful to see the family thriving like
Christopher and Yue Wang stood on the terrace of their sprawling estate, gazing out over the perfectly manicured gardens that stretched as far as the eye could see. The Conrad Corporation's success had afforded them a life of unparalleled luxury, but it was the love they shared that truly defined their happiness. The morning sun bathed them in a warm glow, the promise of a new day filled with endless possibilities."It's hard to believe how far we've come," Christopher said, wrapping his arm around Yue Wang's waist. "From our first prototype to becoming the global leader in electric vehicles. And through it all, you've been by my side."Yue Wang smiled, leaning her head on his shoulder.

I wouldn't trade it for anything."As they stood there, savoring the moment, Christopher's phone buzzed in his pocket. He glanced at the screen and saw that it was his brother, Larry."H
