Her words instantly soothed him."Really?" Norman asked doubtfully, feeling touched for the first time because she agreed to stay by his side."Aren't I here? Go rest in bed for a bit; we can't have you passing out again. I can't lift you.""Okay." He replied softly, awkwardly putting his arm around her shoulder, leaning half his weight on her, fully enjoying the warmth and softness, with no intention of letting go.She came back, how wonderful!Did this mean he still held an important place in her heart?Just like that night, when she lay under him and said, "For you, I'm willing!"Thinking about it, a strange sense of pride filled his chest, even though he didn't quite understand why.Slowly, they made their way from the living room to the bedroom, where she helped him lie down and thoughtfully tucked him in.Suddenly, the silent man spoke, "Get up here.""What for?" She turned, intending to get him a glass of water, confused by his request."Lie down," Norman said nonchalantly, as

"And who are you?" Phaimary, regaining composure, retorted, though she had an inkling of the man's identity."You called and you're asking me who I am?" Norman, wanting to know the caller's relationship with Cratsy, refrained from hanging up immediately."Why is Cratsy's phone with you?" Phaimary asked fearlessly.Cratsy? The familiarity in the name irked Norman. He had never called her that."She's sleeping in my bed. Is it strange that I have her phone?" Norman childishly taunted."Norman, how dare you bully her?" Phaimary's voice rose with indignation."You know who I am?" Norman asked, not hiding his displeasure."You're a jerk! I'm Cratsy's current boyfriend. Knowing her ex-husband isn't wrong. Now let her talk!"Boyfriend? What nonsense!They hadn't even been apart for a month. Where did this boyfriend come from?The usually composed man felt a surge of anger he couldn't suppress. In a fit of rage, he flung the phone against the wall, shattering it.Hmph, boyfriend? Go to hell!

Zair stood up calmly. "No one sees you as a garbage can. This opportunity was personally secured by Dad from Grandpa.""Tell him I don't care.""Whether you care is your business.""Then don't mention it in front of me.""I've mentioned it, so what?"The two, nearly equal in height, faced each other across a coffee table, tension palpable.With the big boss present, Leona dared not challenge his authority. If the two really fought, he might get caught in the crossfire.So, Leona discreetly glanced at Ryo, who had been quietly sipping juice, showing no intention of intervening."This place doesn't welcome you.""So what?" Zair provocatively smirked, looking at his half-brother.So what?Norman answered with a punch.Caught off guard, Zair dodged but got hit, enraged.If Norman struck first, Zair wouldn't hold back. He had disliked his brother for a long time, swinging back immediately.The two young masters fought fiercely, neither yielding.Norman, recovering from leg injuries, defend

She banged on the door repeatedly, but there was no response."If you don't open the door, I'm leaving! How could you break my phone?"She wanted to ignore him!Tired, hungry, and angry, she lacked the strength to keep knocking. She turned to leave.But after only a few steps, Norman, hearing her threat, hurriedly opened the door and followed her. "Who said you could leave?"Hearing him, she stopped, turned, and held up her shattered phone. "Did you do this?"Norman's eyes flickered, and he calmly replied, "It slipped."A slip could break a phone like this? Was he fooling a child?But Cratsy didn't have the energy to argue about it."Did you answer my phone?"Who called? Was it Phaimary?"Who told you to sleep like a log?" His displeasure at the person claiming to be her "boyfriend" resurfaced."You could have just ignored it." She retracted her hand."I'll get you a new one." A hundred phones wouldn't be a problem; he would even change her number.It's not about getting a new phone.

After Cratsy finished shouting, Norman was completely taken aback. What? This kid was her brother?The "brother-in-law," who was finally recognized, looked even more displeased, a mocking smile appearing on his face. "Sister, look at this man. He can't even recognize your family. How can you stay with him?""Phaimary, stop talking. Go upstairs first.""If you go, I'm going with you." He didn't want to leave her alone with this man who might bully her.Norman stood silently, not saying a word."Maybe you should leave first," Cratsy said, patting his hand, which was still tightly holding hers.He glanced at Phaimary, then looked back at her.Cratsy felt a bit uneasy under his gaze, especially with Phaimary standing next to them."Alright, I'm going upstairs now."He didn't respond, nor did he stop her. He just silently watched her and Phaimary walk side by side into the building.Before entering the building, Cratsy stole a quick glance back. He was still standing there.That night, she

"Earlier, I was just..." Cratsy began awkwardly once the car started."You wanted to anger that girl? What did she do to you?" Norman wasn't dumb. He could figure it out."Arbesa wants to prove she's more attractive to you. I just wanted to show her otherwise." She wasn't exactly kind-hearted around him and had even been called manipulative. Let him continue thinking that way.Norman nodded. "Well done."Cratsy was speechless.Was he agreeing with her?When the car stopped at a restaurant, she didn't get out immediately, looking at him instead."What do you want?" she asked."Trying to learn how to woo a girl," he replied calmly.Woo...woo a girl?Did he mean her?She was completely stunned."Get out, let's eat!" The driver opened the door. Norman got out first and walked to her side, helping her out.Eventually, she was not only forced to have lunch with him but also taken to his place in the afternoon.She had planned to sneak away when he answered a phone call in his study but was

It was hard to believe that in this day and age, a man in his thirties could still be a virgin. If true, he was either unattractive or gay.But Norman was undeniably handsome, charming, and came from a prestigious background. How could he not attract anyone? Gay? That seemed impossible.While it's said that exceptional men are either married or gay, Norman couldn't possibly be gay.She refused to believe it because she had experienced his passion firsthand.But what did Julie mean by saying it wasn't easy to "straighten him out"?Something didn't add up."What are you thinking?"Norman, stepping out of the bathroom with water dripping from his hair, saw her deep in thought and asked, puzzled."Wondering if you're gay..." She blurted out, only realizing halfway through how inappropriate it was. She covered her mouth, looking at his darkened expression, his chest heaving with anger, fists clenched at his sides."What did you say? Repeat that," he asked in a low voice, a mix of threat an

**********After he left, Cratsy was surrounded by Joy and Liza, bombarding her with questions about her and Norman. The surrounding guests watched, curious.Julie, already in the know, went to her husband.Just as she reached Ryo, Lunas approached with a group.Lunas had no contact with her biological father, and her stepfather used health as an excuse not to attend. So today, the host from her side was her uncle and aunt, and some older relatives considered Justin.Though these people had some blood relation to Julie, or not, they couldn't neglect the guests.So, when Lunas introduced them to Julie, she maintained a polite smile, shaking hands with each.Knowing the sensitive relationship, they exchanged pleasantries and moved to their own tables.Before Etham brought another group, Lunas faced Julie, her smile genuine."Thank you," she said."Congratulations, may you have a happy life together."Julie leaned into her husband, looking at the departing bride.

Spin-off 4: Ricard (123-end)
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'
Spin-off 4: Ricard (122)
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
Spin-off 4: Ricard (120)
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
Spin-off 4: Ricard (119)
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
Spin-off 4: Ricard (118)
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
Spin-off 4: Ricard (117)
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
Spin-off 4: Ricard (116)
"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
Spin-off 4: Ricard (115)
"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
