That night,

After dinner, Katherine went into her room and sat in front of the mirror. She admired her beauty, picked up a comb and combed her hair, then hummed a song in her mouth.

“My mother, she killed me,

My father, he ate me,

My sister Marlene,

Gathered all my bones,

Tweet, tweet, what a beautiful bird am I.”

Katherine repeated the rhyme several times. Then suddenly put the comb down on the table. Her hand holding the comb and gently gliding through her hair seemed very gentle. Her movements were also careful and affectionate. But unexpectedly, when she put the comb down on the table, she used a firm hand, the force she put into her fingertips as if to crush an almond. She clenched the comb in her hand; her knuckles raised, and she crawled back and forth as if she couldn’t find support.

“Justin, Monica, Caesar, Leona, you will all die!”

The sound of the comb hitting the table echoed in the large, quiet room. And now Katherine stood up, her movements pushing the chair back. The so

    “Mom, look at Lyly. Lyly is hungry and wants to eat rice.”Julie placed the doll on the toy chair and arranged the toy kitchen, as if really wanting to “cook.” She didn’t care that Katherine wasn’t paying attention to her, obediently playing on her own.“Mom, Lyly’s favorite is apple juice and pan-fried bread with lots of butter and smiling cow cheese.”Julie seemed to embody a responsible chef cooking. She placed the tiny pots and pans on the stove, pretended to turn on the flame, and then prepared the ingredients.At this moment, Katherine remained motionless with her thoughts wandering. Unaware of how much time had passed, when she came back to her senses, she turned around wanting to say something to Julie, but accidentally bumped into the toy table Julie had just set up, causing everything to spill over, with the doll also tilting and falling to the side.“Oh...”Julie’s face twisted in confusion as she hadn’t even had the chance to say anything or comprehend what was happening b

    "The mother rabbit gave birth to three adorable baby rabbits, named Red Eye, Long Ear, and Short Tail. One day, the mother rabbit said to her children, 'I have to go pull out some carrots. You stay home and watch the house, and remember, don't open the door for anyone.'Advising her children carefully, the mother rabbit left the house. The three baby rabbits obediently closed the door tightly. Behind their house, there was a wicked grey wolf on the hill, who had long intended to eat the baby rabbits. But since the rabbit family always kept the door closed, it couldn't find a way in. Seeing the mother rabbit returning from pulling out carrots, the grey wolf hid behind a big tree. As the mother rabbit arrived at the door, she knocked and sang, 'My dear obedient bunnies, quickly open the door, let mommy in with her beloved child.' The baby rabbits, hearing their mother's song, joyfully exclaimed, 'Mom's back!' and quickly opened the door to welcome her in.The grey wolf hiding behind the

    The announcement of the amusement park boomed through the speakers, creating chaos in the atmosphere. Besides Justin and Julie, who were currently present, Justin scanned through the other cabins and estimated there were about fifty children and twenty adults around.If someone targeted him and Julie, it wouldn’t just be them risking their lives to achieve their goal.Justin couldn’t let that happen.Amidst the turmoil below, everyone was focused in their direction, pointing, talking, and speculating. More people were arriving by the minute. At the same time, the security team appeared, creating a protective barrier and establishing what they deemed a “safe” distance between the spinning swing ride and the people around.“Dad, what should we do now?”“Julie, stay calm. Dad will protect you.”Justin placed his hand on Julie’s, his gaze momentarily fixing on Katherine’s face, or rather, her head. She was currently hunched over her phone, seemingly oblivious to the commotion or the surro

    In the deep blue sky, the Ferris wheel bobbed like a penguin, suspending Justin in space. From the summit, he looked down to see the crowd below scurrying like ants, disregarding the efforts of the amusement park security, who were desperately trying to restore order, to no avail. Even they seemed to seek refuge themselves.“Julie, hold on tight,” Justin said. He had no intention of prolonging this any further; every second he lingered here added another percent to the danger. Letting go, but just then, bullets rained down like fire, forming a deadly canvas in the sky. In that precarious moment, Justin had no time to think. He exclaimed as his body moved like a forest in the wind, swaying, spinning, and shaking like a dancer in tune with death.“So, it’s death you seek.”With fighting instinct deeply ingrained in his soul, Justin maneuvered between the rotating gondolas like a swift breeze, leaping up and diving like a fleeing deer. His eyes reflected the light of the bullets, vigilan

    The scene was chaotic, with sniper rifles being taken down one by one, but of course, sparing their lives.The others seemed to sense that something was amiss. They quickly wanted to flee, but with Justin’s orders, they had nowhere to run.As soon as they turned to escape, Justin’s troops immediately opened fire continuously on their escape route, preventing them from fleeing any further. At most, they could only shoot their shoulders or legs, immobilizing them.The place where the attackers were standing was the building inside the amusement park. They were positioned in the corridor and windows to take aim. Justin had reached the entrance to the building, but he suddenly hesitated, stepping onto the staircase and stopping. At this point, Caesar had also reached Justin’s position.“Alpha, what’s wrong?”“Moving up from here is too slow, Caesar. Do you have the iron hand with you?”“Yes, sir.”The “iron hand” was a type of weapon specifically designed for Justin’s military forces. It

    The people around felt their faces turn pale, not understanding what Justin intended to do, because if he wanted to kill them, he would have done so already.No one could expect his next move, as Justin aimed the gun at the leg of one man lying on the ground.“Congratulations, you’ve been chosen,” he said, then fired the gun, not allowing the man to fear or utter a sound.As the gunshot ceased, not even a second passed before a hole appeared in the man’s leg, and blood spurted out uncontrollably like a punctured hose.“Aw aw aw aw!” the man cried out in agony, trembling as he hugged his leg.But Justin then holstered his gun. To the speculation in the eyes of others, he seemed to want to torment and torture them. But in reality, it wasn’t so. At this moment, Justin approached and removed the man’s hands.“What... what do you want? If you want to kill me, then do it? I won’t say anything. You... you...”The man was in so much pain that his breathing became erratic, his breath chaotic,

    "Yes, sir, that's correct. I am indeed his subordinate," Caesar said, before taking off his gloves and shaking hands with the man.The man was extremely courteous, and at this moment, he took out his business card and handed it to Caesar. "Here is my card. Your superior saved the lives of my wife and children. So I hope that when he wakes up, you can inform me so that I can come and visit.""Yes, of course," Caesar politely accepted. The man nodded a few times at him, then departed.Watching his departure, Caesar pondered a bit. Just then, someone suddenly appeared beside him, startling him. And that person was none other than the mischievous Leona."Hey, he doesn't seem like an ordinary person, does he? Did you notice?" Caesar, still startled, lightly tapped Leona on the head. He yelped and held his head."Why did you hit me?""Never mind that. Let's get those people back to base."Even Caesar felt that the man's status was not ordinary. From his speculation, he was probably a high-r

    Justin lay on the hospital bed, brought to the hospital in an ambulance. Medical staff quickly wheeled into the emergency room him. Their movements were swift and urgent. To make his injury appear more realistic, Justin even deliberately disrupted his heartbeat and blood pressure, causing it to drop unusually low. This made the medical personnel genuinely believe he was severely injured and close to death. “Hurry up, hurry up. This patient is severely bleeding. Injuries from gunshot wounds on the ribs, abdomen, chest, and head,” a doctor shouted. The scene in the emergency room quickly became chaotic. Justin felt somewhat guilty, pondering what he should do and when he should open his eyes. The attending doctors quickly approached, giving him a brief examination, but their expressions immediately changed. “He... he doesn’t seem to have any injuries?” said a middle-aged doctor while examining Justin’s shirt, confirming that he had no wounds. The atmosphere in the emergency room sud

    The sudden incident left Jeannie terrified. Even after the bicycle was hit, she hadn’t recovered.Ricard comforted Jeannie and then angrily walked to the driver's seat of the BMW, shouting, "What kind of driving is this? Didn’t you see the red light?""What's the rush? What's the rush?" The car door opened, and the young man stepped out slowly, "I didn't hit anyone. Just compensate you, right? How much do you want? Three thousand yuan enough?"The young man pulled out three thousand yuan from his pocket and threw it on the car's hood. Before Ricard could respond, he added another three thousand: "If it's not enough, here’s six thousand, okay?"Ricard took a deep breath, "This is not about money. I need your attitude, apologize to us!""Apologize? You must be joking. I didn't hit you. You just want money, right? Fine, here's ten thousand yuan. Is that enough?" The young man threw another stack of money on the hood.He then glanced at Jeannie, trying to gauge her reaction, but she didn'

    The staff's words made Jeannie unconsciously look at Ricard.Although they had registered their marriage more than a month ago and even took wedding photos, their relationship had always been lukewarm. Now, suddenly being called Ricard's girlfriend, Jeannie's heart skipped a beat, and even the tension of the impending bungee jump was pushed aside."Hey, man, come here. What are you hiding from? Your girlfriend dares to jump, and you're hiding behind her. Come and hold her tightly." The staff urged, waving at Ricard.Of course, Ricard didn't refuse the staff's suggestion to jump while holding Jeannie, cheerfully running over.Jeannie looked at Ricard in front of her, seeming a bit hesitant: "Didn't we buy two separate tickets? Can't we jump one at a time?""That's right, a couple's ticket. Come here and stand firm, put on the equipment, and don't mess around." The staff said while fitting the equipment on Jeannie and Ricard. The eighty-meter-high jump platform had a hot wind blowing in

    “Sure.” Ricard didn't hesitate to hand the Coca-Cola to Jeannie.Jeannie looked at the dark carbonated drink in her hand. There were many things she always wanted to try: singing wildly, acting cute like other girls, playing with social media apps, buying her favorite snacks. But due to her family's strict upbringing, she never did anything too extreme. She never went to karaoke to sing loudly, never bought a pile of snacks, never bought a bunch of cold drinks in the summer. She always maintained a calm and mature demeanor, drinking a hot cup of tea at the company every day. Sometimes she would see others with a cold drink and feel a desire to take a sip, but she feared that doing so would shatter the dignified image she had built in front of her employees. Although she appeared to have many things, she had never experienced things that were easily within reach for ordinary people.Like Coca-Cola. When she was young, her family didn't let her touch these carbonated drinks. As she grew

    For Ricard, physical endurance wasn’t an issue. Cycling seventy kilometers, even carrying Jeannie, was no problem for him. Along the way, they chatted and laughed, making the time fly by.Two hours passed unnoticed. The midday sun blazed overhead, heating the road. Ricard cycled along the highway, enjoying occasional shade from roadside trees."President Demneri, are you thirsty? I’ll buy us some drinks." Ricard stopped at a roadside stall, buying two cold Coca-Colas."Why Coca-Cola?" Jeannie asked, puzzled.“For the refreshing taste.” Ricard took a gulp, letting out a satisfied “Ah.”“I’ll have water instead.” Jeannie placed the Coke on the counter, opting for a bottle of mineral water.Ricard gallantly opened the bottle for her, and Jeannie took small sips.Ricard could tell Jeannie was very thirsty, but she still drank slowly, a habit from childhood.“Alright, let’s go. Only twenty kilometers left. If I speed up, we can reach Haihu soon and enjoy the afternoon there.”Ricard resume

    Ricard heard the cheers and smiled, looking at the woman standing at the microphone with pride. This was his wife, capable and talented! With a few short sentences, she had inspired everyone’s enthusiasm. The employees' attitude towards work could indeed shape the future development of the company.Irena, who had just been fired, had packed her belongings and quietly left through the side entrance of the company. Seeing Maria with a large rose pinned to her chest, standing at the front of the company and receiving praise, made her feel extremely uncomfortable. She had heard everything Jeannie said over the microphone. Five hundred thousand, even split between two, was still two hundred and fifty thousand each! Why should Maria get that money?Irena glared at the company's main entrance with resentment. If it weren’t for Maria and that damned new hire, today’s events wouldn't have involved her!Irena took a deep breath, trying to console herself. Even if Maria got two hundred and fifty

    Jeannie chuckled lightly. "In the end, you're still trying to comfort me, but in your own unique way.""Am I? Ha ha." Ricard laughed heartily, ruffling his hair. "Sit down." Jeannie gestured to Ricard.Ricard did not stand on ceremony, sprawling comfortably on the sofa.Jeannie poured him a cup of tea, an unprecedented gesture from her. This act made Ricard feel both pampered and uneasy. "No, no!" Ricard quickly stopped her."What's the matter? Are you mocking me?" Jeannie shot Ricard a sharp look. "A man who can easily get the head of the largest corporation in France to come to Supperazza to sign a contract can’t accept a cup of tea from me?"Ricard gave a wry smile. Initially, he hadn't planned to let Jeannie know about Eugene, but with today's events, including Prince Charles’s presence, there was no way to keep it hidden.After pouring the tea, Jeannie sat down opposite Ricard, lightly rubbing her forehead. "As usual, explain.""Ah… I saved Eugene’s life once, and since then he’s

    When Eugene heard that Jeannie was Ricard's wife, his expression immediately turned respectful. "Lovely lady, forgive me for saying, but you truly are the most beautiful angel I've ever met.""Uncle Eugene is the manager of the Zefiro Group, the largest financial group in France," Prince Charles reintroduced Eugene to Jeannie.Although Prince Charles didn't use flowery language or mention astronomical wealth, saying it was the largest in France was enough for Jeannie to understand the significance of the old man standing before her. A man like this could hardly be someone Ricard found to collude in defrauding the company.Outside the reception room, Naccy and her group waited for the outcome.Jeannie quickly exited the reception room, and they all looked at her, awaiting a response.Jeannie scanned the group and spoke, "Director Naccy, this has been a misunderstanding. Mr. Eugene is indeed the partner Ricard found.""How can that be?" Naccy's first reaction was disbelief. How could so

    "Mr. Eugene, please wait. I'll go get Ricard.""No need," Eugene called Maria back. "Ricard entrusted this deal to me. If you don't sign it, I'll refuse to cooperate.""What?""Girl, how your company distributes the bonus between you and Ricard is none of my business. You can discuss it with your boss later. For now, go get the contract."The sudden success of the deal and the enormous bonus were overwhelming for Maria. It took her a while to process it.As Maria left the reception room to get the contract, her face still showed signs of disbelief.Everyone in the business department saw Maria's expression. When she left the reception room, they all started talking."What's wrong? Couldn't close the deal?""She looks like she failed.""She's a rookie trying to handle a deal herself. What did you expect?"Kristy and others showed disdain. "No," Maria waved her hands. "The deal is done. The client agreed to sign the contract.""Signed?" Kristy's eyes widened in disbelief. She knew the v

    "Three... hundred thousand?" Maria's eyes glazed over at the number. Her family was ordinary, and her parents had worked hard their whole lives without saving that much money. Three hundred thousand was enough to buy a house in Supperazza, enough for someone unemployed to live comfortably for years, or to buy a BMW. For Maria, three hundred thousand was an unimaginable fortune.Hearing Eugene say that this deal alone could yield a bonus of three hundred thousand made Maria feel like she was dreaming. "Girl, so, will you sign the contract, or do I need to call Ricard?"Maria swallowed hard, stammering, "I... I..."Hearing Maria's response, Eugene felt a bit disappointed. He understood that three hundred thousand might not mean much to him, but it could change an ordinary person's life. With three hundred thousand, they could buy a big house, a luxury car."I... I need to call Ricard and ask him to treat me to a good meal. Three hundred thousand is a lot! Mr. Eugene, please wait a momen
