Derek took more interest in the doctor's report, regardless of how bad he was being looked at by Clarine and Cassandra."Just tell me what's wrong with my wife doctor Williams, I'm ready to pay anything just to save my wife." Derek said softly."Pay anything you say! You've got no conscience Derek. Why do you keep lying when there is really nothing you find easy to do."Clarine was yelling, making a din in doctor William's office."Miss Landon, please stop, this is an hospital. You can't kick a fuss here in my office… This is a hospital." Doctor Williams intervened."If he is the husband, regardless of how upset you might be towards him, he has the right to know wherever it is to know about his wife."doctor Williams added.Doctor Williams returned to her seat, then told all that was needed to be known about Brenda.. "She needs to get blood before the next six hours. If not, I'm sorry we might be looking at a dead…. " she ceased the remaining thing she intended saying."What about the

Brenda was lying in the hospital bed, unconscious and unresponsive since the day before. The room was quiet except for the beeping of the machines monitoring her vital signs. Derek had finally left the door and was sitting by her bedside, praying for her to wake up.He clasped her hand into his, speaking of those times they've spent together, he believed a miracle would happen if he did that.In a few hours, after the blood transfusion, she slowly started to stir. Her eyes fluttered open and she looked around, disoriented and confused. Derek rushed to her side, tears streaming down his face. He held her hand and spoke to her softly, trying to comfort her."Welcome back to life dear. Thank goodness you are alive."As Brenda's consciousness slowly returned, she struggled to remember what had happened to her. She felt weak, drained and her head was pounding hard, but she was determined to get better. However, just then, she remembered the devastating scenario that made her get into suc

Some days later after the incident, Brenda settled in Orange Island and resumed as the general manager of Fera Textile.As always, this was what she had always dreamt of. Becoming a working-class lady and never a full housewife.Days rolled into months, and months into the next three years.She was quite happy putting all her efforts into her job, that was the only thing that gave her happiness.Through her leadership, she had taken Fera to the next level over and over again.Fera had won different trophies as one of the best in the fashion industry ever since the time she started leading. Not just that, Fera had ranked the best in the fashion industry over and over again.Producing one of the top-notch products both within and outside the Dominican.She was glad to fulfil her greatest desire.She stood on the balcony, sipping from her latte while her lips curved into a small smile.The door suddenly opened and one of her maids came in carrying a basket of flowers."Ma'am, it is here

Brenda was in no way surprised by what she was hearing. Other than the fact that she felt Mrs Reid should have changed over the years.Who in the world still chooses a spouse for their kids in the 21st century. She mumbled to herself with a deep frown.It pained her to realize that her father was also no more, at least he could have continued with Mrs. Reid's crazy idea.Deep down, Brenda guessed that there was more to the marriage other than she was hearing. Mrs Reid never does anything just for the sake of doing it, she does everything for a reason.Brenda therefore stared regretful at Mrs Reid, at the same time at Duncan who spoke without thinking twice."Mrs Reid, I can't marry him. If this is why you called for me. I'll have to take my leave right now." she said with assertion."Forget the fact that you gave birth to me, you definitely cannot decide for me." she added about taking a rise."You need to move on dear. Stop drooling over the past. Derek is gone, and even if he is no

Derek was slightly embarrassed with the ambiguous offer of a cheque just to let his wife to a stranger.To him, it was as though he was being told to offer his life just to get some amount of money. But then, without life, he couldn't do anything with the money.That was the same way it felt with Brenda and the ambiguous.She was his everything, and now somebody was offering him some amount of money that never measured up to his standard just to let go of his life? "Never! Such wouldn't happen." he told himself.He still loved her, neither was it his wish to have left in the first place, but he had fallen into an enemy's trap while he intended to protect her.However, she never would understand, even if he did explain his reason behind the whole scenario three years ago.She never would in anyway believe him. He said to himself.A faint smile spread across his lips, one which deceived Duncan and every single person into believing that he was in for such an offer."As always, I knew h

Derek alighted from his vehicle, the sleek black car came to a stop outside the imposing Emerald Group building. He stood there for a moment, taking in the sight of the towering skyscraper before him. The building was a symbol of success and power, and Derek couldn't help but feel a sense of awe with a mixture of pain The building suddenly brought to remembrance the death of his parents. For some unknown reason, he wished he knew them before they were taken away by death.With a sigh, Derek turned his attention to his task at hand. He knew that this was his moment, his chance to take over the company and make his mark in the business world. But as he looked up at the building once more, he couldn't shake the feeling of nervousness that was creeping into his mind.This was his first time attending business meetings with certainly international investors, but Gage had tried his best to at least take him through all he needed to know before he at least commenced the meeting.Derek took

Mrs. Reid and Morphie, had been causing quite a disturbance in the lobby. The receptionist had repeatedly asked them to leave, but they refused to comply."It's so infuriating to see such nitwit chase us out as though we are nothing." Mrs Reid added in anger trying to argue things out with the receptionist."its my duty to respect every visitor hat steps into the company, at the same time, its my duty to obey orders and this current order clearly states that you both shouldn't be allowed into this place." "It's preferable if you both leave honourably, or you get to bite more than you can chew." Morphie let out a sarcastic outburst."Let's see who the loser would be."he paused."I've been here all day with my mum arguing with you but forgetting the fact that I could also see the vice chairman myself. If you deem it fit, then you try to stop me." he confidently said, turned around and left for the elevators, he had however not walked too far when he stumbled into something different.F

Brenda was devastated by the fact that Matilda, the daughter of the Millers, had to reveal her identity in such an unspeakable way, not just that alone, but right in the presence of more than fifty people in the restaurant.Some people who never knew her before had begun to murmur after Matilda mentioned the fact that she left her parents just to abscond with a guy in the name of love.Murmurs went around so fast. "Wow, she doesn't look like she is being called. Who on earth would pray to birth such a child who would abscond with another In the name of love.""I guess she is just so gullible and right! She's being ungrateful. If I were her parents, I would end up throwing her into the lagoon, forgetting that I had a child forever." Brenda clocked her head sideways, she caught the exact table where those words had come from.Anger boiled through her veins, right at that moment, she felt like walking up to that table and offering a round of deafening slaps to all those who were around t

W-what’s going on?The ten-odd bodyguards who barged in glared at Derek like he was a great enemy.On the ground, Perry gritted his teeth resentfully as he struggled to raise his head to look at the bodyguards and ordered, “Kill… kill him!”The punch Derek threw at his abdomen left Perry in so much pain that he was on the verge of throwing up all the food he had eaten for the past few days. The slightest movement made him feel intense pain in his stomach.For the past few decades of his life, Perry had never been beaten up like this or suffered such a huge loss before!If Derek could still leave Perry ’s turf under the siege of so many bodyguards, Perry would be thoroughly embarrassed!The ten-odd bodyguards and Perry ’s personal bodyguard acknowledged and immediately surrounded Derek.Derek smiled coldly and raised his leg to kick the bald bodyguard who rushed in front of him, sending him flying!“Ah!” The bald bodyguard let out a miserable cry as his body was propelled upward be

“No!” Perry refused resolutely. “This isn’t a small business. We’ve monopolised it in Dominican! If I recommend some clients to you, won’t I be giving my family a competitor for no reason?”Derek shook his head. “I naturally won’t run this business in Dominican and become your competitor.”After giving it some thought, Perry still didn’t believe Derek. “Your roots are all in Dominican. Why should I believe that you would leave this place and go elsewhere to run this business.”Derek shrugged. “It’s up to you to believe me or not. Mr. Perry, please get your facts right. I’m doing you a favour by asking you to recommend clients to me. To put it bluntly, the Bathhouse is in my hands now, and so are those beautiful women. Even if I take over the business directly now, what can you do for me?”Derek's words made Perry’s face turn gloomy again.But this was really what the current situation was like. Since that bastard manager had presumptuously sold the Bathhouse, Derek was the dominant p
CHAPTER 291
Perry’s face was naturally extremely gloomy at this point.Derek was clearly trying to intimidate him!It was just an ordinary dice, but the power that emerged from Derek’s hand when he threw it was not inferior to the power contained in a bullet shot from a gun!Besides, the dice Derek shot had landed near Perry’s head. If Derek had intended to kill Perry, he would have probably been shot in the head by now!At the thought of this, Perry felt his entire body’s hair stand on end, and cold sweat rapidly seeped out of his pores, making him chilly all over.And Perry’s elite bodyguard was also overwhelmed with shock.As a bodyguard, he should protect his employer’s safety in any emergency situation.But the speed of the dice Derek shot out just now was so quick that it wasn’t visible to the naked eye. In fact, he only figured out what happened after hearing the terse and sharp sound of the dice shuttling through the air, followed by the loud bang.He couldn’t even react in time, let alon
CHAPTER 290
When Perry saw how bold and fearless Derek was, his facial muscles twitched a little as he gritted his teeth with great resentment and viciousness in his eyes.With a hypocritical grin, he said, “Hehe, why would I do that? Since I invited you here, I naturally have something to discuss with you.”He thought he had hidden his intentions well. But being a sharp and shrewd person, Derek had long seen through Perry.“Mr. Perry, don’t beat around the bush with me. If you have anything to say, just say it.” Derek couldn’t be bothered to exchange hypocritical pleasantries with him. He simply leaned against the couch and got straight to the point.Seeing Derek taking the lead in the conversation, Perry was displeased, and his face immediately turned dark.He waved his hand, and the few scantily clad beauties sitting beside him immediately walked out of the room.Soon, only Derek, Perry, and a burly man who followed Perry wherever he went were the only ones left in the large private room.Dere

Derek frowned.He didn’t expect Aiden to die despite being in police custody.But there were definitely potential loopholes everywhere. If it was really the doing of the force that Derek guessed, the police would likely be defenceless and unable to guard against their actions.But Aiden’s death was not in vain. At the very least, Derek was now certain that the mastermind who instigated Aiden was more likely than not same person who sent the photographer.Otherwise, Aiden wouldn’t have died so easily.“Okay, I know.”Derek was about to hang up the phone when he noticed in the rearview mirror that there were several inconspicuous cars tailing his car. Their intentions were unclear, but he knew that they had to be up to no good.He frowned. They’re really everywhere. How annoying!He wondered who sent these people to tail him.With a trace of murderous intent in his eyes, Derek hung up the phone and quickly made another call. “Come to Clarine's apartment, I will send you an address.”Der
CHAPTER 288
Derek couldn't tell who it was yet, but he knew he would find out.With a sharp and cold gaze in his eyes, Derek raised his head and looked distantly in the direction of the DC. “Hmph, I don’t care who you really are. As long as you dare to reach your hand here, I don’t mind chopping it off!”When Derek reached the amusement park entrance, he saw Clarine waiting here for him worriedly.“Derek, did you get what you went for? Did you find everything?” she asked curiously.Derek raised his arm with two paper bags and said with a faint smile, “I got them. Fortunately, there was no queue.Clarine grinned and teased, “It turns out you really are caring.”Derek smiled. He merely nodded and said, “Yeah, so you have to be like me as well. In the meantime, it's getting late, let's go home.”Clarine nodded happily. Soon, the two of them got into Lucas’s car and sped off.…At this moment, in a luxurious villa in Dominican.A young man in his twenties was reclining on a soft leather sofa with a s
CHAPTER 287
Derek was still trying to figure out who it was, but then he scurried away quickly. But after covering only a short distance, he discovered that a tall and phantom-like figure had appeared in front of him to block him from leaving.“Still trying to run, huh?”The young man was flabbergasted because the person in front of him was the same person he had been secretly snapping photos of!A few seconds ago, this person was clearly more than meters behind him, yet he was standing in front of him in the blink of an eye. How did he do it?!Having been discovered and even stopped by the person he was secretly snapping photos of, the young man got a little nervous and gritted his teeth. He then barked in a menacing voice, “Why are you stopping me? Get lost!”Derek sneered and pointed at the camera the young man was holding. He asked indifferently, “You’ve been tailing me all afternoon, so you must have taken a lot of pictures, right? Did you think no one could discover you when you’re so clums
CHAPTER 286
In fact, Derek could have chosen not to catch Aiden and let him fall to his death just now, as he ought to reap what he sowed.But the words Aiden said earlier made Derek suspect that someone was instigating him. So Derek caught him and allowed him to stay alive to interrogate him and find out more from him.But the matter of Aiden taking Clarinet hostage and trying to jump off the building with her had alarmed almost all the police systems in the city. Many reporters had also hurried over with their cameras and equipment to get the first hand news scoop.In such a situation, Derek naturally couldn’t interrogate Aiden personally. He simply handed Aiden over to the special police officers for them to investigate.The chief special police officer nodded and instructed his subordinates to send Aiden to the hospital. After Aiden came to, they would bring him in for interrogation immediately.Of course, as the parties involved in the incident, Derek and Clarine had to make a mandatory trip
CHAPTER 285
Clarine watched as Derek vanished from the edge of the roof and screamed at the top of her lungs uncontrollably, “Derek!”Two streams of tears rolled down her cheeks, and she started bawling loudly, feeling as if her heart was being stabbed by daggers.In contrast, Aiden laughed out loud in great excitement. “Hahaha! What a dimwit. I managed to kill him so easily! I’m going to get rich again soon. Hahaha!”The police on the rooftop of the building couldn’t stop Derek in time and could only watch as he jumped off the building. They all shouted in horror and regret.At the same time, the crowd of onlookers on the ground also shrieked loudly in amazement.When Aiden heard the commotion at the bottom of the building, he guffawed hysterically with great smugness. Then he grabbed Clarine by the collar and looked at the ground to admire the scene of Derek’s badly mangled flesh after he fell off the building.Suddenly, there was a major change!A pair of hands suddenly reached over from the
