Jill threw the wineglass in her hand quickly at Arthur. Her eyes were red with resentment when she heard the news that Tom had survived and Brown hadn't done his job properly.
"Is there no one else I can count on?"Arthur jumped backwards to get out of the way. His breath caught in his throat as he recalled the stakes that hadn't yet been raised by Jill, who was beginning to lose her mind."The police aren't continuing their investigation because there's firm evidence from the hidden cameras that Tom stabbed Lark in self-defence, Mrs Reynolds."Jill gave Arthur a sharp glance. She approached Arthur with wide strides. "I don't care and I don't want to know anything about it, Arthur! At least, if Brown dies, he won't be able to blackmail us! He won't make us go down with him."Arthur looked down and nodded in affirmation as he gazed out of the window of Jill Reynolds' luxurious room. "You're right. But doesn't that mean we can make Tom stop

"We should get going, Pete."Tom had just finished changing when Shannon suddenly walked in with a downcast look, then she glanced to the side as Tom's head nodded curiously.As for Pete, he quickly tidied up his laptop and all the files he had taken from JF Moulding in order to deliver the furniture that was ready to be transported by two large trucks.Shannon opened the door to the room wide enough for Tom to step in. She entered, nodding when Tom saw who had arrived."I heard you almost died, Cobb."Tom was not surprised by the arrival of Jill Reynolds, who wanted to check on him. He invited her to come in and sit on the sofa after Pete left with a lot of luggage."Not nearly dead, Mrs Reynolds. But getting up once again. Isn't that right?"Jill grinned, then glanced at Pete, who had left first after bowing to her. She looked at Tom, who was getting ready to go back to work in a cheap suit he'd picked up at the conven

"Do you want to kick me out, Aland?"Instead of being surprised by Shannon's stubborn refusal to leave for her own safety, Tom smiling. He rubbed the corner of Shannon's eyes that had to get wet and then touched her chin for a while."If you don't want to go anywhere and still want to accompany me, then you have to grow stronger than before, Ms Reynolds. This is only the beginning. And for them, there may never be a happy ending for us."Shannon blinked quickly, glancing up to keep her tears at bay. "Of course. I'll be stronger. We'll face this together. I'll show them that despite their bullying, we can still live happily."Pete, who was still there, smiled and raised his thumbs up to his chest as the couple turned to him. He grabbed the things that had been packed to take away.Tom got up with his hand, clutching Shannon tightly. He carried Shannon out of the hospital without any fear of death. Together with Pete, who bring back some im

Arthur paced back and forth outside his room as he continued to call the customers he had been convinced to return. Unfortunately, his calls were always rejected, and even diverted.Arthur still didn't want to lose hope. He kept trying to find some well-known writers to promote JF Printing as a printing house with high integrity in its field. Unfortunately, by the end of the night, he hadn't even received any of his hard-earned money.Seeing Arthur getting frustrated on the spot, Stallone got up and tapped Arthur lightly on the shoulder. He nodded and asked for Arthur's phone, which he had been holding in his hand."I know someone who probably won't turn you down, Mr Fischer."Arthur's jaw dropped after twisting his head. He nodded his head as if he was waiting for an answer. "What? Why are you talking now?"Brad looked down slowly before finally looking back at Arthur with doubt. "But the thing is, we have brought her down and cursed at

"Can you see? You can still monitor them from home, right? Since morning, I asked some technicians to install many surveillance cameras at JF Moulding and JF Properties."Tom placed the tab Pete had bought on the table. He rested his head on the back of the chair that could be adjusted in height and angle. "We're innocent, Pete. We shouldn't be afraid."Pete lowered his head slowly before finally leaning back. He walked over to a picture of James as a young man with his happy little family. "I'm not scared because we're right, Tom. I just know we have to take risks in the truth. You know, the world is not just about right and wrong. It's about the strong and the weak. The brave and the afraid. There's a lot more to it than that. And I just want to make our path easier. I don't want the same thing to happen again. Because without you, I don't know who else I would hope for."Seeing Pete gazing at the picture of his childhood family, Tom moved. He also moved

Jill’s hand slapped Arthur hardly. Her eyes were wide, as if ready to pounce on anyone who came in her way.“Can’t you learn from your previous mistakes, Arthur? You lost your dad’s car over a bet! And you’ll lost JF Printing the same way? Can’t you learn from your own mistakes, huh?”Arthur didn’t answer. He didn’t even dare to stroke his cheek, which was hot and painful at the same time.“Is that why you keep trying to convince me to marry you with Lia off as soon as possible? You even stayed here just to talk to me until midnight, just to persuade me to get you married and print the invitations immediately? Is that why? What the holy shit! You’re so insolent! You’re ignorant and unreliable! Can’t you think before you can do anything, huh?”Unfortunately, Arthur remained silent. He knew he could have replied and persuaded Jill to stop being angry, but he felt he needed to be properly punished. He had already lost. Before even trying to fight.

"What's going on, Mr Smith?"Will Smith smiled as he met Tom, who had just arrived after being called by Pete to see him. He stood up and shook Tom's hand proudly."Congratulations, Mr Cobb. Or Mr Fischer. What should I call you? It sounds absurd."Tom patted the back of Smith's hand, who shook it lightly. "Take it easy, Mr Smith. You can call me by any name you want. Both are my names. Why should I be embarrassed when I've already proven that I'm a descendant of Fischer?"Mr Smith nodded and returned to sit with Tom facing each other on the sofa. "I tried to contact your brother. But he didn't answer my calls. Nor did Pete. So, how are we going to start this?"At Smith's question, Tom glanced at his watch. In an hour, their bet would be over. "What if we go to JF Printing?""You sure Arthur's there?"Tom nodded and shook his head simultaneously. He glanced at Pete, who nodded his head from a distance. "At least I know h

"Sorry if I'm coming too late, Arthur."Arthur shook his head and turned to Dwyane, who had been silent, accompanying him through the traffic. He smiled when he saw a woman who was much different from the first time they met."No, don't apologise. I disappointed you in the past too. Maybe this time I get my punishment."Dwyane closed her mouth softly, showing her expression of concern for what had happened to Arthur just now. "Sorry, Arthur. If I had remembered my old book I had a draft of to change the plot in my workspace at the office, maybe you could still have saved JF Printing.""No, Dwyane. Please stop apologising. It's not your fault. I'm not capable enough to lead JF Printing out of the bankruptcy zone, anyway. I only made it worse by staying with me."For the rest of the journey, the two were silent. For the first time, the defeat Arthur received did not make his emotions explode. Instead, there was another emotional feeling tha

"What's this, Arthur?"Jill threw some photos sent to her right into Arthur's downcast face. Her anger about the bet had not subsided when she heard about Arthur's meeting with Dwyane Hills moments before.Arthur picked up the photos Jill threw at him and placed them on the table. "I'm just trying harder to keep JF Printing, Mrs Reynolds. She's my last resort.""I don't care about your excuses, Arthur! I just want to know, what is it? What's happened to you lately, Arthur? Have you forgotten or pretended to forget that you promised me to do whatever I tell you to do? You just have to answer me and you just gimme excuses?"Jill was completely out of patience. After experiencing the loss, the anger, and the disappointment of Arthur's unprofessional behaviour, she found another mistake that Arthur made. "You forgot she was stalking you? You reported her and now you're in the same car with her? Are you getting crazy? You're going to lick your damn shoes that you've soiled with dog shit, hu
