Tim was on a call with one of his investors in China when he heard a movement behind him. He looked behind him and saw Daphne entering.He was mesmerized by her appearance and even forgot He was on the phone.“Okay, thank you,” he said with a frown and ended the call.Another rejection.Daphne smiled and walked towards him and hug him,He smelt the usual perfume and wrapped his arms around her despite his mood .Daphne used that opportunity to snug her head into his shirt and sighed happily.Tim heard this and a smile appeared on his lips.“Why have you not been answering my calls? Even if you are busy you can just text me so I know you are okay . You don’t know how worried I was," She said as she continued to act like a cat in his embrace rubbing her face in his chest.His expression changed when he heard this but when she left his embrace his expression was back to normal. “I’m sorry,” he said and held her own pony tail behind her back.Daphne smiled and took his hands and brou
Nina walks into the office with a look she couldn’t even explain herself…After Ethan’s identity was exposed she has always felt there might be a way for her to talk to him and let him know about how she feels about him.But after that day, he has not been seen in the company ever again. It seems he just vanished after he was ‘exposed’.Her mood has not been okay even after her usual harasser, Manager Lin, got fired from the company. Even that did not make her happy. She felt like she had lost something which she could have grabbed while it was still near to her.“What are you thinking about ?” Flora asked behind her, making her jump in fright.“You scared me," Nina said as she held her heart.Flora in return laughed heartily. She was happy as the only person who always makes her life a living hell in the office was no more.And the best one was she was now the newly elected HR of her department and she couldn’t wait to let all the ideas she had in her head be used .“Congratulation
Tim trembled in his knees and tried to look up, but his father's words pierced his heart like arrows.He didn't want to say anything, fearing his father's anger. It was best to stay quiet and avoid further provocation with his words."You never do anything that would make me suspect you are fearful. But now it seems you are afraid of this opponent," his father asked, a smirk on his face.Knowing he was in the wrong this time, Tim kneeled down with a thud and started apologizing."I'm so sorry, Father. I failed you once again.""No, my son. You never failed me. The heir of the Willow family is formidable. I shouldn't have given you such a challenging assignment. It wouldn't have escalated with us losing almost 60% of our investors and clients.""I failed you, Father, but it won't happen again. I will work diligently this time, and I won't make another mistake," Tim said, raising his head with determination, hoping his father would give him another chance.His punishment, he hoped, woul
Daphne's words surprised her father so much that he stood up in shock."What did you just say? Who are you talking about? What is this about, and how come I never got to hear about this thing? Who is he?" Peter started talking, and he couldn't even wrap his head around the things he was hearing from her.Daphne, on the other hand, found it very amusing and started laughing."What's so funny? Do you think this is some kind of joke that you're laughing at?" he asked her with an angry tone."Oh, Dad, I never had such an intention, and I don't think I'm making any silly remarks with my laughter. But you were just so funny that I couldn't resist. Okay, you want to know what I meant, right? Then come sit down," she said and patted the seat next to her.Peter was reluctant to comply, but considering what she had just said, he knew he had to sit down. After all, this was about his ex-son-in-law.Daphne sneered inwardly when she saw how her father was reacting.She was sure he might be thinking
Leona slept on the bed, her legs apart, as she was comfortably stretched out. She heard the incessant ringing of the doorbell, but she ignored it as she didn't feel like getting up to answer it.Her black cat, Sufenot, jumped onto her bed and started crying and licking its paws for attention."Great!" she lamented."The doorbell and now you!" Leona exclaimed loudly at her cat."Just when I thought I was going to enjoy my sleep," she continued.The bell kept ringing nonstop, and she had no option but to make it stop."Who could it be at this ghostly hour, ringing the doorbell as if they own the house?" she said with a tired voice and stood up, heading towards the door.Thanks to her breakthrough in her acting career, she had been able to accumulate some money to leave her old life of poverty and was now able to rent an apartment.She never forgot to send money back to her parents from time to time.She calmly walked to her kitchen as the doorbell became louder and louder.As the beauty
Amelia, who had just returned from shopping, asked with a curious look, "Did I just hear you both mentioning that person's name here? Who gave you guys the right to mention that individual?"She said angrily."This is not what you should be saying, Mom. He is going to help us, and that is what I was discussing with Father here," Daphne said calmly.Daphne didn't care about her mother insulting Ethan in such a manner. She was more concerned about the benefits he would bring, and whatever others would say was none of her business."How can that person help us when he is still working as a low-life worker in another company? What good thing can he deliver?" Amelia asked angrily, with a disgusted look on her face.Peter, on the other hand, was looking at her as if she was unintelligent and wondered how he even married her in the first place. She wasn't this stupid before, but now she acts without thinking. If he knew this is how she would react years later, he would have chosen another wo
"Amelia, don't you think you are being unreasonable? You sent him away, and now that you've seen how he can help improve our lives, you want him back. Don't you think you're being selfish?" Peter rebuked her angrily."What's wrong with me trying to make him help us? Let's not forget all the things we did for him until he left with us. This is the least he can do to help the family. And I don't see anything wrong with it," she said shamelessly.Peter knew she was shameless, but he didn't expect her to go this far. She was crossing a line."Do you still think he owns us? Let's not forget the time he gave his precious blood for free, and he gave it to you," he said, pointing at Amelia."Do you still think we owe him? Did we even provide him with any supplements to help him recover the blood he lost? We just sent him away with a weak body and a pale face. If Daphne and I are discussing bringing him back, you shouldn't say the same things. You've already benefited a lot from him," he conti
Ethan drove while looking through his car's rear view mirror. He smirked but said nothing as he zoomed off. After leaving his house this morning, he noticed a car following him, not too far away. Most people wouldn't have noticed, but Ethan was different. He wouldn't let something like this escape his attention. To him, it seemed like child's play. He accelerated and went into a restaurant where he had a meeting with James and his sister.With an uncaring demeanor, he walked into the restaurant, feigning ignorance about being followed. "Good day, sir. Do you have a reservation?" a pretty waitress approached him, her face blushing.She was captivated by his appearance, especially his eyes. She had seen many people, but she had never seen someone with such captivating eyes that seemed to draw one in when they made eye contact.Ethan felt the change on her face, but he did not care and looked at his watch impatiently. He didn’t need to worry about disguising his eyes with glass anymore.
