"Mum?"The greeting of someone whose voice Jill recognised well made her look back quickly. Her eyes grew wide as she realised Camellia was awake.Jill was stunned. She rushed approached Camellia who was still lying in the cage. She touched every inch of Camellia's body to confirm many things. "You-you can talk, Lia? I-I can't believe this. You can see me well? You can move all your body well? Try to do something. Answer me, Lia!"Camellia nodded and grabbed Jill's hand to hold. She smiled to show her mum that she was okay. "Now, my vision is still a bit blurry, mum."Jill, who heard this, panicked again. She almost pressed the emergency button on the other side of the bed again when Camellia shook her head."No, mum. Don't do anything. The doctor is right. I just need time to re-adapt after sleeping for so long. Even if it's only four days. Like my voice. I used to just moan, but now you can see it, right? I'm back to talking like before. It's just that my voice is still hoarse and h
Arthur immediately looked back and snorted when he saw Tom there. He turned his head and snorted roughly before rubbing his firm jaw."I don't need your advice."Tom laughed and shrugged his shoulders lightly. He approached the printing press, that was still in progress. He picked up a sample magazine on the table. "Actually, JF Printing is a fairly large printing house with competitive quality at a fairly low price. It's just that the insensitivity of a director who only wants to reap greater profits has made the market lose confidence. They were disappointed. Even with a simple explanation of the high purchase price, customers won't care."Arthur looked away from Stallone, who looked down briefly. He looked back at Tom, who was looking at each page of the JF Groups magazine. "Who are you talking about, huh?"Tom's flipping through the pages of the magazine stopped after hearing Arthur's question from a distance. He pointed at one page as he pursed his lips tightly. In the next secon
"Are you sure the plan will work? What if Arthur gets a new project to bring JF Printing back from bankruptcy, Aland? You should have thought this through. At least you can discuss it with me, right?"Tom shook his head and touched Shannon's cheek lightly. His smile broke out perfectly at the sight of genuine concern on the face of the beautiful Shannon in a suit that made her even more stunning."If he resurrects JF Printing, I have nothing to lose even if I have to give him my dad's car, Ms Reynolds. At least, I've helped him to successfully make JF Printing back into good business. That way, I only need to help him revive JF Travel, which is still not earning any income. It's okay for me to lose the car, Ms Reynolds. It's not just for my benefit, but to fulfil all my promises to my dad."Shannon's eyes filled with tears. She nodded in affirmation as she wiped the tears from her face. "Mr Fischer would be proud to see you fighting to bring back JF Groups, Aland. I think he'll rest e
Arthur had just arrived home when the clock struck nine. He threw himself onto the sofa as he placed the file he had brought on the table.For the first time, Arthur felt like he was actually working. His body was tired, his head had a persistent headache. Even his eyes heat up as he felt exhausted from looking at every order he had received over the past three years."Pete! Please, bring me some coffee!"Instead of hearing the shout from inside the kitchen, Arthur closed his eyes and patted his head briefly. He had completely forgotten that Pete was no longer living with him. "Even Pete was more in favour of that scum than me. What am I missing?"One maid who heard Arthur's request quickly made coffee and brought it to the guest table. She bowed quietly, then opened some snacks in a glass jar to enjoy with the hot coffee."Sorry, I just heard you were coming, Mr Fischer."Arthur nodded, waving his hand. "That's all right. Come back, please. Next time, come as soon as Pete arrives, ev
Tom woke up when it was time for lunch. He grew quite wide-eyed when he realised Shannon was sitting across from him.Tom looked down and laughed for a moment. He looked at Shannon, who was now supporting her chin with the back of her hand. "Even I dream in broad daylight."Shannon frowned when she realised Tom thought it was just a dream. She snapped her fingers right in front of Tom's face, who was still blinking, with his head resting on the table and his arm resting on it.How surprised Tom was to hear Shannon's fingers snap before his eyes. He hastily sat up and scooped her up roughly."When did you come, Ms Reynolds? Why didn't you wake me up? Is something wrong? Did something happen?"Shannon stifled her laughter at the sight of a distraught Tom. She showed him her phone while pointing at it with a forefinger shaped like a gun ready to fire."There is. I contacted a dozen times person and got no answer. So I decided to visit JF Properties, but Liam said he didn't get a reply wh
Arthur withdrew his hand quickly as he watched Jill repeatedly. Not only Arthur, Camellia, who had been smiling hopefully, also frowned in surprise."Are you kidding, Mrs Reynolds? Getting married tomorrow or the day after? I haven't even prepared anything after you rejected me. How am I going to work and prepare everything now?”Camellia looked down for a moment before finally looking at her mum, who was now shaking her head in disbelief. "Mum, I haven't even fully recovered yet. How can I possibly get married tomorrow or the day after? Weddings are the happiest moments and I don't want to lose them just because mum is rushing it."Arthur turned to Camellia and nodded in confirmation. "That's what I mean too, Mrs Reynolds."Jill swallowed, then chuckled. Her blissful gaze faded and was replaced with disgust. "Yesterday and the day before, you kept asking me to marry you off. And this time you're asking how you're going to solve everything alone? Are you trying to belittle me now?"Ar
"Welcome home, Mr Cobb!"Sarah O'dell and Emma Robbie's greeting must have taken Tom by surprise. He just smiled as he placed a bag of snacks on the table in front of the sofa. He also greeted some customers who make purchases.Nick just shook his head softly at the behaviour of his two colleagues. Not without reason. The two single women had won over Tom's manly demeanour. "Please understand, my two co-workers, sir. They are just going through puberty before disappointment sets in."Suddenly, Nick's words made the three visitors who were sitting with each of the JF Properties employees laugh to themselves. Meanwhile, Tom stood by the door, trying to be a greeter for the visitors who might come to visit.As the three visitors walked out after their purchase, Tom bowed before them to thank them for their trust. "Hope JF Properties bring you success."After that, Sarah quickly moved on, approaching Tom with her nose, trying to sniff out the unfamiliar scents.Being treated as such, Tom
"Didn't I mishear?" asked Tom to make sure. He stood up in a huff as Henry approached him from behind."I heard it directly from Camellia, Aland. I think since her head was hit, her evil behaviour is starting to diminish. She told me everything. But she's still not sure when the wedding will take place."Shannon's explanation certainly made Tom understand the confidence of Arthur who suddenly came to ask him to prepare a car as a gift. "I think I should send him a wonderful present.""Did you see, right? Arthur always has a hidden way to get what he wants. His strategies are too cunning, Aland. He will utilise any means for his own benefit. Not for the good of JF Printing."Henry, who was waiting behind Tom's back, was about to turn around when Tom glanced back. "Lemme call you back later, Ms Reynolds. I need to get something done."Tom quickly put down the phone when he saw Henry handing him the company tab."There's an additional request, Mr Cobb. More than eight. They're asking for
