Once he had something to hold over Susan, all those titles – Chairman, Project Manager – they'd all be ousted!The elder wouldn't tolerate a woman who tarnished the family name, and Jason, that waste of space, would surely be kicked out along with her.Then, the fruits of victory would be his!Amidst his smug satisfaction, Eric Scott and Susan began negotiations. After hearing the Brown family's offer, Eric Scott said with a devilish charm, "While the Brown family's offer is decent, it pales in comparison to the Sanchez family's."&n
But Eric Scott dodged with a vile laugh, his breathing becoming beastly from the drug’s effect. He tore at her blouse, his eyes alight with greed, "Miss Susan, just give in to me.""Forgot to mention—there's no antidote for this aphrodisiac. The only cure is to find a man and lose yourself in passion.""In your dreams!" Susan stumbled, her body ablaze with fever, throwing anything she could grab, now cornered. Tears mixed with anger, she cried out, "Even in death, I won't succumb to a vile man like you!"But as she spoke, Eric Scott lunged again, laughing maniacally. Susan's footing gave
At the mention of Robert Brown, Jason's eyes turned frosty—him again, always too stubborn to see the writing on the wall. But then, catching sight of the incoherent Eric Scott and a smoldering incense stick, Jason smirked, "Whether you live or not depends on your endurance now."He whispered instructions to Steven Martin, then left with Susan and the incriminating laptop."What... what does that mean?" Juan paled, sensing impending doom, as fear washed over his face.But Steven Martin grinned wickedly, snuffed out the incense, split it in two, and forced it into the mouths of Eric Scott and Juan. "You both fancied yourselves players, so now you'll pay the price.""You're so adept at games, so feast to your heart's content today!"With that, he stuffed the remains of the incense into their mouths.Juan's eyes widened in terror, shaking his head frantically in resistance. That incense was an aphrodisiac he had procured; just a whiff could fill a room with its potent scent. But swallowin
"Wait... wait a minute, this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding...""Misunderstanding? You wretch, caught red-handed, what excuse do you have? When did you start coveting me? How long have you been planning this?""In this state, how can I possibly marry into the Sanchez family?" Margaret Brown raged, her fury uncontainable.Driven to anger by her relentless accusations, Robert Brown shoved her away and scoffed, "Even without today's events, do you really think with your looks you could catch the eye of Billy Sanchez? At best, you'd be a plaything to be tossed away.""Wake up and stop dreaming!""You..." Margaret Brown was incredulous and furious. She knew her chances were slim, but to think that after he had violated her, he dared to crush her dreams?"Do you think you aren't living in a fantasy? The chairmanship is almost snatched away by Susan. If I tell Grandfather about today, you're finished."Margaret Brown seethed with a venomous threat.Her words struck Robert Brown wi
"Nowadays, any Tom, Dick, or Harry can stroll into Mountain Villa. What are the guards even for, if strays can slip in unnoticed?""You..."Susan was furious. This man was too arrogant, disparaging them as soon as he opened his mouth. Yet she could not refute him, for they had indeed snuck in like thieves. Who could have expected to run into Ashley?Nothing could be done but to admit their misfortune at encountering her. Jason, however, would not tolerate this. Raising an eyebrow, he retorted, "Who said we're not homeowners? What makes you so sure you are?""Haha...haha..." Hearing this, Ashley and Dylan Simmons threw their heads back in raucous laughter. What an ignorant fool, a frog in a well who knew nothing of the world.Ashley deliberately thrust out her chest and looked down her nose, mocking, "Susan, your little man has such shallow horizons. A sponger like him could never comprehend my standing, no, he doesn't even deserve to. "Dylan Simmons is the vice president of a list
Dylan Simmons gave a cough. This woman could really spin a tale! He was only here on orders to deliver a document; she had insisted on tagging along and was now claiming to be the owner. Even if he was given years, he probably couldn't afford that grand villa, let alone the manor.But putting on airs depended on the audience. Discerning elites would likely see through it immediately, but these two country bumpkins seemed sufficiently fooled.Just then, Jason suddenly said, "That's not right!""Wha-what's not right?""This house didn't cost a hundred million, but a hundred and thirty million dollars." Jason said seriously."Ha, like you were the one who bought it! It's my house, how could I not know? And what does it matter anyway? Don't pretend you can compete with me. You? Compete with me?" Dylan Simmons snorted derisively. "Right, don't think you can show off just because you heard some gossip. Whether it's a hundred million or a hundred thirty million, it's beyond what a useless
But Jason gave her a reassuring look that instantly set her mind at ease.The next second, over a dozen burly patrolmen charged over. Ashley eagerly accused, "It's them! They trespassed in Mountain Villa and stole a key! Catch them and punish them severely!"But to her surprise, the men surrounded her and Dylan while ignoring Jason and Susan entirely. "What...what's going on? You've got the wrong people, it's those two!" Ashley couldn't help screaming in shock.Dylan Simmons' expression also changed. "That's right, we were invited. They were the trespassers!"At this, the patrol captain flew into a rage. "You still claim you were invited? Non-homeowners are only allowed half an hour. You've brazenly stayed half a day, yet still spout nonsense?" "Taking half a day to deliver a file? Wandering the entire villa area to deliver a file? Grab them!"Susan suddenly understood. "So you two were just delivering a file, not homeowners?"Ashley's face flushed crimson, but she still refused to b
That evening, Susan and Jason returned home laughing and chatting. Mary Martinez was dumbfounded. What was going on? The two seemed to have reconciled. This wouldn't do!"James, this isn't good. Did that wastrel Jason somehow trick Susan with sweet talk? She looks like she has forgiven him, but this is infidelity. It absolutely cannot be forgiven." Mary Martinez said anxiously. James Brown put down his newspaper and glanced over thoughtfully. "It's probably just a misunderstanding resolved. Susan seems much happier too, so it's a good thing.""Good my ass! I don't care if it was a misunderstanding or not. How can I kick him out if Susan forgives him? He's trying to keep freeloading here, but I absolutely won't tolerate it!" Mary Martinez gnashed her teeth.Just then, she noticed Jason packing up his few belongings, as if preparing to move out. Mary's eyes lit up. Was the wastrel finally getting the hint that he couldn't keep squatting here? James Brown was also surprised. "What are
