Chapter 1557 Admitted Full of Band-aids
Chapter 1557Walter entered Andrade Clinic with his family and was greeted by the new receptionist.“Andrade family, I thought you should know this,” she commented. “Mr. Sterling, the father, has been admitted here. He suffered a physical assault, and it doesn’t look minor at all.”“Really?” Charles smiled ironically. “That’s what happens to annoying people. Has Dr. Almeida or Dr. de Paula seen him yet?”“I think it was...” The receptionist typed on the computer, checking. “Dr. de Paula.”“Oh, wonderful,” Walter said sarcastically. “Now Karl is going to lie there listening to Dr. de Paula badmouth my girlfriend and encourage that lunatic to do something against her too.”“We won’t allow that,” Charles declared solemnly.Emmanuelle shrugged. “Today I just want peace. I’m going to check on things in HR.”She walked away. Charles and Walter asked for more information and went their separate ways.Charles headed to Karl’s room. The poor man had band-aids scattered across his face and a ba
Chapter 1556 Overturned Her Dismissal
“ARGH… Cough, cough…” Karl coughed and spat blood.Abner calmly walked over to the landline on the desk. “I’m going to call an ambulance.”“Old Master Sterling, I didn’t want this to happen!” Cindy screamed in horror.“Of course you didn’t, my dear.” Abner winked.He waited to be answered while Jackson returned the hug, trying to comfort the woman he loved. His gaze was piercing and sharp, wanting to make sure she was okay and satisfied. It was as if he were silently asking whether she wanted more punches.Cindy, in tune with her fiancé, translated his burning look and grabbed him by his dress shirt. “Darling, that’s enough. Karl has had enough.”“He’s not going to fire you,” Jackson growled, the loyal guard dog protecting his owner from any danger.“Yes, at Urbano Magazine. Karl Sterling is all beat up here and needs medical attention.” Abner said in an amused tone, glancing at his misbehaving son. “This is his father, Abner Sterling… No, miss, this is not a prank.”Cindy broke free
Chapter 1555 Avoid Making Matthew Jealous
“Your damned bastard, are you really firing Cindy?!”“JACKSON!” Cindy screamed in horror.But Jackson didn’t hear his fiancée. All he wanted was to grab Karl by the shirt with his left hand and punch him with his right until he turned to pulp.Abner did nothing to stop it, simply watching from a distance. After all, he was old, and his son needed a beating that only Jackson could deliver.******Meanwhile, Levi was having a serious conversation with Noemi about the dangers of falling for Jackson.“Levi, stop with the nonsense.” Noemi defended herself bravely. “I objected to exactly that with Dad, thinking he or you would be more suitable to work on the commercials.”Levi made a face of disgust and even gagged. “I don’t want to work on commercials with another naked guy!”“And it seems Dad didn’t want to either, otherwise this ‘urgent’ and ‘unexpected’ meeting wouldn’t have suddenly appeared.” Noemi smiled mischievously, realizing the trick. “Next time, I’ll call Mom.”“NOEMI!” Levi cr
Chapter 1554 Weird Firing
“The number you dialed is out of coverage area or turned off. Please try again later,” said the phone.“Trying later might be too late,” Matthew grunted, dialing another number.On the other end, Alice was tending to the peonies and azaleas in the garden when she received the call from her beloved grandson.“Hello, Matt?”“Dear Grandma, have you and Grandpa received any updates about Cindy?” Matthew asked in a gentle voice, making Sheila roll her eyes.Alice smiled as she caressed the blue petals of an azalea. “Yes, my dear grandson. Abner went to Urbano and hasn’t come back yet, which means Karl is really trying to do something absurd. I called him, but it only goes to voicemail.”“Same thing with me,” Matthew replied seriously. “I found him at the police station, causing a huge commotion, wanting to gather ‘evidence’ that would ‘incriminate’ Cindy and ‘justify’ the dismissal he wants to impose on her.”“That’s absurd. That dismissal has no legal basis. Cindy could sue us and win a n
Chapter 1553 Making Ads with Clothes
Noemi decided to pull herself together. She stood up abruptly and strengthened her voice, making her facade more convincing. “Jackson, I’m not in a formal relationship with Matthew Sterling. Therefore, this isn’t a betrayal. Besides, we’re going to talk about work, and Matthew knows what it’s about. He must have come across one of your commercials on the internet.”“Not by choice.” Jackson smiled mischievously. “The algorithm sometimes plays tricks on his feed.”“Anyway, we need to understand and set boundaries for our brainstorming session here.” Noemi sat down again, feeling more confident. “Actually, I even suggested to my father that we approach something different in the next viral ads.”Jackson pulled up a chair and sat down, interested. “Tell me.”“How about you at least wear shorts?” Noemi gave a small smile. “I don’t want your erotic image to become oversaturated with the same audience that now worships you.”Jackson looked down at the area between his legs, remembering the a
Chapter 1552 Embarrassed to Work with Him
Cindy waited anxiously in her office. The memory of two thugs trying to invade Urbano’s premises looking for her left her restless. That was more terrifying than waiting for Karl.The door opened, but it wasn’t him who entered. It was Abner.“Old Master Sterling? What are you doing here?”“Hello, Cindy.” Abner gave a small smile as he closed the door. “It’s been a while since we last spoke.”“Unfortunately, life’s circumstances haven’t allowed it.” Cindy crossed her arms.She still remembered when Abner and Alice magically switched their support from Cindy to Patricia becoming the next Mrs. Sterling, without even bothering to tell her, expecting her to find out in the worst possible way.“I know. You’re now engaged to Jackson and have been living wonderfully with the Borges family.”“Your enemies...” Cindy growled.“Hey, calm down, young lady...” Abner gestured. Then he pulled up a chair and sat down. “I don’t agree with what happened. For my wife and me, the Borges family continues t
