Jayce and William left Joseph’s disease room, walking along the hospital corridor. The atmosphere between them became more tense than ever. William suddenly spoke up, breaking the silence.“Jayce, my age is not young anymore,” he said, his voice thought. “You should get married.”“Father, I understand, but now I am busy with my career. I still have many projects to be completed and there are many things to do.” Jayce tried to keep calm, but the mind stirred. Calculated, Jayce was the one who met with Mr. William the most, his personality how he also understood. This is not a wistful reminder. Obviously, William saw the benefits of the two families: William and Watts.Mr. William looked at Jayce, his eyes full of attention but equally strict. That I get married does not affect my work. It can also strengthen my career. The daughter of the Watts family is fine.”“I will consider, father.” Jayce nodded through the story. He did not want to be here with him in front of him.William nodded
"Once upon a time, there was a cripple who often walked alone at night. One night, when everyone had gone to bed, he fell down the stairs and no one heard his cries for help. me." Joseph began to speak, his tone was so cold that it gave the other person goosebumps.“Have you ever heard anyone mention that story?” Joseph asked, his voice gentle but full of meaning. The expression on his face also gradually changed.The nurse shook her head and replied briefly, "Never heard of it."At that moment, Joseph's wheelchair stopped before a long, dark staircase. The weak light from the ceiling lights was not enough to dispel the darkness covering the stairs. The surrounding atmosphere became stuffy and evil. Both Joseph and the nurse were silent, only the sound of soft breathing and the sound of the elevator motor fading away.Joseph said nothing more, and the nurse also remained silent. Darkness and silence make the space more scary.Suddenly, the nursing staff pushed the wheelchair hard, try
Amile looked at the nurse's silhouette, then looked back at Joseph, raised his eyebrows and said, "Your life is also very valuable, making Jayce want to take it over and over again."Joseph smiled faintly, his tone joking. "Of course, not only does Jayce want me to visit the King of Hell, but even Mr. William sees me as an 'important' pawn."The two of them entered the elevator together to return to Joseph's hospital room. The space in the elevator was quiet, only the breathing of two people could be heard "You didn't just call me here to visit me, right?" Amile broke the silence, she looked at Joseph with curious eyes."You're smart, Amile. This will be a stepping stone for our plan to happen faster." Joseph raised his eyebrows, his eyes shining with cunning. "When the elevator opens, remember to help him push the wheelchair and have intimate gestures. You have to do it exactly like that." Joseph said and laughedAmile smiled, her eyes full of mischief. "Okay, acting is my profess
Jayce was sitting in his office, eyes staring at the computer screen, but his mind drifted to the phone conversation he was taking part in. The voice of the person on the other end of the line rang out clearly through the speakerphone.“Tonight will definitely be a special evening.” Jayce’s hand kept caressing the sparkling silver engagement ring on the table. That ring was an important part of his plan, a guarantee for the future.At this moment, there was a knock on the door, interrupting Jayce’s thoughts. He frowned, then said to the person on the other end of the line, “Please wait a moment.”He turned his head toward the door and called, “Come in.”The door opened, and Tyler walked in, his face as serious as ever. “Jayce, the president just called. He said that you should go to Mr. Watts’s house with him tonight.”Hearing this, Jayce turned pale, his heart pounding in his chest. He felt an irrepressible anxiety. “Tonight?” he asked, his voice shaking slightly.“Yes, tonight. The
“No father, I cannot do as you say. I’m sorry, I can’t trade love for power, I can’t.” Jayce looked at his father with pain in his eyes. From childhood to adulthood, he listened to his father in everything, but this alone was impossible. He can not do.Mr. William slightly smirked. He turned to look at Jayce with sarcastic eyes.“Cannot? Let me tell you, nothing is impossible. There is no such concept in this world. Don’t say it’s about sacrificing love. Even if it costs more things, you still have to do it!”Pausing for a moment, Mr. William continued: “You think power is a simple thing, what if you want it? Do you think I love your mother so much that I want to go home together? Don’t bring that ridiculous thought out here again! Faced with power, love is not worth a penny.”“Dad…”Mr. William did not allow Jayce to say any more words. “No more talking. Go back and prepare for the meeting,” he ordered, his voice full of authority.“Is love something that is so easily sacrificed, fat
Mr. William’s luxury car rolled on the white gravel road approaching the gate of the Watts family mansion. The mansion appears majestic and majestic, warm yellow light shines through the large windows. As soon as the car stopped, a servant opened the door and respectfully invited them into the house.Butler Artix, a middle-aged man with a stern but elegant face, came out to welcome them. “Hello Mr. William, hello Mr. Jayce,” Artix said in a formal tone, “The boss is waiting for you inside.”Mr. William and Jayce stepped inside and immediately felt the elegance and luxury of the mansion. Precious paintings hanging on the walls, sparkling chandeliers, and exquisite furniture all clearly show the wealth and power of the Watts family.As they entered the living room, Mr. Watts, and Amile appeared from inside. Mr. Watts, a middle-aged man with a calm and noble demeanor, came forward to greet them. Next to him is Amile, she appears with charming and elegant beauty. She wore a wine-red, ankl
Amile led Jayce to walk in the vast garden of the mansion. Lush trees and brilliant flowers surround the paved roads. Amile seemed swinging, walking gently and flexibly, sometimes turned to look at Jayce with gentle eyes.Only thing, Jayce’s poison has completely changed. He followed her with a sharp look. Amile kept chattering alone. She talked about minor stories, happy memories in the past. She smiled and said, trying to create a comfortable atmosphere, but Jayce just silently listened, not responding.Walking a paragraph, Jayce suddenly stopped and called her “Lady Amile.”Amile turned around, his eyes glittering at him, surprised by Jayce’s bitter tone. “What’s wrong, Jayce?” She asked, gentle voice.“No need to pretend, Amile. We all know that both of them are only interested in benefits. I know you don’t really care about me.” Ayce looked straight into her eyes. The voice was low but determined.“What are you saying, Jayce? I don’t understand.” Amile immediately showed an innoc
Jayce and Abigail hugged each other under the light of the park, completely unaware that someone was sneaking up that moment from afar.Meanwhile, in Joseph’s room, he sat on the bed, hand over the iPad screen. Joseph was checking messages and emails when receiving a message from Amile reporting the situation of the meeting with Jayce and the Watts family.“You do well,” Joseph sent a message in response.Suddenly, a message from a strange number appeared on his screen. Joseph opened the message and saw a remote photo, which was obviously Jayce and Abigail were hugging each other under the park lights. He frowned, trying to understand what was happening and who sent this photo.Joseph tried to text back to ask more about the sender, but as soon as he was about to press the send button, the other phone number had blocked him. This incident made Joseph even more suspicious and confusing. You need to clarify this immediately.Joseph quickly called Brian.“Brian, I just received a picture
