"He wanted to kidnap me and apologize for what he did to me. I... I couldn't accept his apology," Zachary said. As Jared heard this, his anger surged. He grabbed his phone and called the Chief of Police, urgently reporting the detailed threats that Zachary had faced, expressing his outrage, and demanding a thorough investigation and appropriate action. Hezekiah Head had crossed the line! How dare he threaten them like this? Did he think he could easily provoke the Winthrop Family? This matter needed to be thoroughly investigated, and justice must be served. Hezekiah Head stabbed himself, but didn't he stab his own sister? Investigate! It must be thoroughly investigated! Jared grabbed his phone and called the Head of the Police Department, describing in detail the threats Zachary had received from Hezekiah Head and expressing his strong resentment. The Chief of Police promptly dispatched officers to search for Hezekiah Head and initiate surveillance operations. He was furious! Last t
Eddie Lamb's sudden arrival brought forth a wave of challenges. On the surface, it appeared that the Head Corporation was facing significant risks and obstacles. However, thanks to the remarkable efforts of Yaritza and the Winthrop family, the company continued to thrive with exceptional performance. Overcoming these hurdles necessitated the crucial financial support of Sawyer Gilbert, who assured that a solution would be available within a month, regardless of the timeline. Eddie Lamb's contributions to the business over the past two decades, as well as the enduring 40-year relationship with the Head family, must not be underestimated. After all, who would willingly part with their most valuable assets? Yet, if the impending crisis isn't resolved within two days and there's a shortfall of 30 million, investigations from external sources may further delay the process.Acquiring the required funds would not only stabilize Eddie Lamb's financial situation, but it is also worth noting th
Zachary nodded and gestured, "Please have a seat instead of standing." The bedroom was spacious, and the bedside table was too far from the sofa. He moved aside to create space, patting the bed as an invitation for Yaritza to sit. He was feeling lazy.A pleasant fragrance wafted from Yaritza, a mix of morning freshness and a captivating scent that intoxicated Zachary. If she were a beautiful woman, he would never want to leave the bed.Yaritza asked, "Are you pretending to be mentally ill?"Zachary responded seriously, "No, why would I still be lying in bed if I were?"Yaritza bit her lip, holding back her words, and asked, "Are you just being lazy?" It was difficult to swallow. She continued, "Sawyer Gilbert is in prison and is preparing to borrow money from the bank." Her gaze fell upon Zachary's messy hair, and she felt an urge to tidy it up. The hairstyle was disheveled."Sawyer Gilbert? Who is this important person? Oh, he is Hezekiah Head's legitimate wife, the one protected by
Yaritza sat gracefully in the chairman's meeting room, flanked by two bodyguards. Across the table sat two executives from the high-rise office.The conference room door swung open, and Sawyer Gilbert entered briskly, glaring angrily at Yaritza. Zachary followed closely behind, accompanied by his bodyguards.Yaritza, seated at the head of the table, maintained a calm and composed expression, offering a light smile to the visibly enraged Sawyer Gilbert. She nodded slightly and then proceeded with a determined tone, "Firstly, the company is experiencing fluctuations in employee numbers, and it is crucial to handle internal affairs with care under my supervision. Secondly, the finance department needs to conduct audits of ongoing operations."Sawyer Gilbert, seething with anger, slammed his hand on the table and shot a hostile gaze at Yaritza. "What is the meaning of this, Yaritza?"Yaritza leaned back slightly in her chair and asked, "And what is the purpose of this display of temper? L
In the chairman's office, the company's acquisition was successfully completed, and Yaritza handled the matter calmly within Head Corporation. When it came to the company's affairs, Yaritza delegated tasks professionally without getting overly involved. She carefully concealed any signs of concern on her face and kept her thoughts about the current situation to herself. Her main focus now was on how to handle Head Corporation, including the possibility of selling it, the logistics, profits, and distribution issues. This was a significant endeavor that required careful handling to avoid mistakes and potential consequences.After the meeting at Head Corporation, Yaritza asserted her authority and returned home feeling exhausted. The affairs at Head Corporation had kept her busy, involved in activities such as planning, strategizing, analyzing, and establishing connections. It had drained her completely, leaving her with no energy.To outsiders, it appeared that Winthrop's family was fac
In the early morning, Zachary got out of bed and took the dog for a walk. As he passed by the front gate, he expected to see Yaritza's usual gaze from the palace.However, Yaritza prevented the dog from entering the Graham family's gate even for a moment. Zachary tugged on the dog's leash and continued walking past the gate without going in. He assumed Yaritza could only observe the palace from outside. Glancing back, he noticed Yaritza standing by the window, holding a cup and appearing lonely. Was Graham not in a good mood today? Zachary called out, "Yaritza!" and raised his hands to wave at him. Holding the dog's leash in one hand, he lifted it, unintentionally pulling the other end, causing poor little Teddy, who had only been with them for three months, to be choked by the leash and struggle to stay on the ground.Hearing the commotion, Yaritza's voice came from inside. Zachary assumed it was a response and slowly walked back to his room, only to find Teddy being choked. He could
Yaritza expressed her concerns, saying, "Please, take a moment. You're intelligent, and you should understand that we're not compatible and it wouldn't work."Zachary gazed at Yaritza with seriousness and replied, "There's something unique about you that I've been searching for in others for many years." He lifted his head, casting his thoughts to the bare ceiling as memories of the landscapes he had encountered throughout his life surfaced in his mind.Yaritza quietly observed Zachary, waiting for him to continue.Zachary deliberated silently for a while before sharing his thoughts, "There are certain things that can be decided using logic and reason, and some that elude rational determination. For me, the best path forward would be to find a partner abroad who possesses both wealth and a suitable background, creating a strong alliance through marriage. Such a union can offer significant support from influential families and prestigious lineages. It is a choice often made by noble fa
Yaritza quietly gazed at Zachary, waiting for his response, without expecting an immediate answer. Zachary seemed deep in thought, wearing a perplexed expression on his face.After a moment of concentration, Zachary began to count on his fingers, listing Yaritza's qualities: "You're beautiful, pleasant to the eye, graceful, kind-hearted, and knowledgeable about life." He paused briefly before continuing, "But what matters most is the warmth I feel when I'm by your side. There's a special quality about you that subconsciously influences my thoughts and emotions, providing a sense of protection." As he waved his hand dismissively, he added, "I remember the moment when you handed me the flower..." His voice trailed off, and he noticed Yaritza's puzzled expression, realizing that she might be thinking about Dalilah Vasquez. Zachary then said, "Although it may sound cliché, it genuinely brings me joy and happiness from within. Moreover, when I visited your office and you asked if I needed
Zachary blinked, quickly accepting the setup, and as Celine Kirk spotted him, the little dainty girl sat on Keenan's arm and weakly made her way into the Antique Row exhibit. Antique line this piece of treasure, and occasionally fights, the whole street is ancient and low-key luxury, looking at the broken doors and windows made of rotten wood, may be the Quinton dug out of the sycamore perch, Zachary last time to bring Xavier Burch, rookie Mr. stepped on the boss lazy didn't sweep the ash, are a shock afraid of which is a thousand years of the ashes of the royal relatives. His wrist was still in Zachary's hand, and he begged for forgiveness with a downward-facing posture that turned a hundred and eighty degrees, "I'm wrong - the people next to me are looking at oh, that girl has an indignant expression of being split up from her cp, as if she's going to pounce on me and eat me." "Eh, just kidding." Callum Luna grinned and begged for mercy - he'd just struck out of nowhere, and while
"... How much do you hate your leader?" The tomb keeper shook his head in an old-fashioned manner, "This amount of money is no more expensive than a life."Zachary hooked the man who was about to leave, "We're not done talking, look at this, have you seen it when you were in the antique business?"Joselyn Robles looked at them both from side to side and her smile didn't go down, "Zach there's no need to rush, since so many threads are intertwined it's most likely a secret under one karmic copy, the poison looks creepy but other than the ability to catalyze the very sight of it no other harm has been found so far, it's more of a 'link' than a poison '."Suspicious, the tomb keeper counted through the bills and was pleasantly surprised; he drew out the charm concealed in them, and the moment he saw the human-faced phoenix, his expression changed.The tomb keeper admired and put away the red ticket, "You're really something, OK, I'll keep it for you."
Though he also felt that the old lady was making a bit of a fuss about it, and that 8 was so burnt out right now, how could he have time to interfere with them, and that Zachary would be even less able to do that when he was splitting up eight people to use them, and tossing them out of the way."The two cases are not unrelated, one could even say they are related, what Callum Luna said is true, it was 'Roderick Luna' who financed the curator of the painting exhibition, and that's not the only thing, the antique auction house a while back, the floating cloud carving that was intercepted by Vice Ramirez The silver needle, finally found in the diary sent by Ms Ara, was the very one that Dulce Hooper used to make all the blood pacts for the Gale Watts sacrifice."Callum Luna demonstrates the attitude of the Luna family, "-He who dares to desecrate God is not worthy of death."Celine Kirk, who had long since leaned against the car, shook out her skirt, "Let's just s
"Unsolved case." Zachary didn't have much of an expression, "I've been investigating this, his death took up all my energy, it's not exactly a secret within the Way, sorry, just didn't want to get you involved."Celine Kirk grunted coldly, "Cut the crap, Sea Ring aside, since Gale Watts has a lead on Roderick Luna, the Luna's are in charge, and it's been two nights since the Gale Watts monstrous statue posed as a deity, so don't tell me that your team hasn't come up with anything."But now that Zachary just said it, he instead thought there was a hidden agenda, or else Zachary wouldn't have softened his attitude until he was sure that the spell poison was completely insurmountable.Zachary frowned when he heard a cold yet pleasant inquiry lazily coming from behind him, "Who are you?"Keenan stood aloof, looking at Lone High with a nose, and nodded along, "Zach's got a good point."After the Gale Watts case, Zachary has considered slowly pushing the
The more Zachary thought about it, the more likely it was, and volunteered to confess his thoughts, "Are you after me?"Keenan came back from cleaning up, fleshed out and surprised, thinking he'd finally gotten the hang of it, "How so?""Because I dumped you with a whimper, and you tried to dump me back, and I cried bitter tears, so we're both barely even." Zachary blinks at him, and with a twitch of his brain, suddenly says, "How about right now."Keenan's face faded down, heart really, he leaned toward the back of the chair, his eyes some thin dangerous: "Now what, I chase you, you promise, then I dumped you, two minutes to get it done, you and I grudges two eliminated, never see each other again, is this what it means?""Of course not, then wouldn't our previous relationship be child's play?"Zachary shook his head, "No matter what I've done to break your heart, there hasn't been a single moment for the four years we've been together that I have
Zachary typed in the password as Keenan read it, and suddenly lurched, finally realizing that the inexplicably familiar string of numbers was his birthday, "You're still on your old phone?"Zachary looked closely, the paintings in the show were all human figures, familiar with the large color stacks and twisted lines of the netherworld painting style he had read about so many times in the art room of the lab building, "Oooh, this could be a genre, the underground overdrive style?"But Dulce Hooper's soul has gone. How can a body without a soul move fraudulently?Naturally, Callum Luna's ramblings alone don't count, Zachary: "How can they be sure it's Roderick Luna?"His head was groggy from the low fever, and he had residual pain all over his body, and he didn't want to move at all, but he might have overslept a bit, and he didn't want to go back to sleep, so he started swiping at his phone.Zachary guessed that they did not dare to easily give up
When he got up again, there was a hazy, pale light, and Zachary braced himself, and it was like he'd been run over by a car, and after the shock had passed through him, and the soreness danced in every bone, and stabbed a little bit at his joints, and his arm collapsed, and he fell back down again."It was him." Keenan phrased, "Six months after you evaporated, he was arrested for illegal proselytizing, and when I was sorting through my materials, I found a notebook I'd borrowed from him, with a piece of paper sandwiched between it with a messy yardage drawn on it, which I thought at first was draft paper, but realized it wasn't any formulas or mind maps, and when I looked at it closely there was some regularity to it, very much like some kind of writing, and which I've since turned over to the police up."He was all but as brooding as he had been when he arrived, but that oily, don't-touch-anyone-against-me asshole look was a turn-off.Then the stomach growled.
Keenan smoothed his suit, didn't care if the steps were dirty, and sat down next to Zachary, choking on the strong smell of cigarette smoke, but Zachary's silence, which was even cloudier than the smoke, choked him even more, like a little burnt edge, a little hot, a little painful.Zachary automatically ignored Keenan's increasingly out of bounds mannerisms of late, his cold mind forming a set of logic he could best accept; he just had to act like he was in a dream.Johnathon Ramirez needless to say, although it is difficult to see the position, but it is also after he topped the Special Investigation Brigade was not disbanded, and he is in charge of the Special Investigation Brigade for so many years of the old boss, even if the crowd often behind the back of the arrangement, but also still recognize his ability, recognize the identity of the 8 of the Unified Control.Luna's family in the open that point, everyone has spread rotten, now the most hopeful heir i
"Ah-!!!" The young constable, seeing this for the first time, fell to the ground in fear, his high pitched scream cutting through the night sky of the city hall and drawing in the others.Zachary, however, couldn't care less about the chaos of the bureau, and he clutched the yellow talisman, a treasure hunt he knew all too well, the glazed box that once held the nine parts of Khalil Hobbs's body, hidden away on a rainy night in the mountains of Ushant, and poured out into the madness that is him impermanence and insanity.It had taken him years to slowly climb out of the overgrown mud - at least superficially - and stop worrying those around him, but those behind him were afraid that he would be too good to be true, grabbing the hem of him orange-red dress and tugging it down to help him remember what it was like to be parted from him bitterness and hatred. .How much does he have to be hated, who did he blow up in him last life, or
