Alex was stunned for a moment, and then he asked eagerly, “What happened?”Garrett had a catch in his throat. “Madam…no, I mean Miss Jane and her fiance, they are not…in Bay County.”“Where are you now?” Alex asked.Garrett immediately said, “Master Alex, I followed your orders and came outside of the mansion in Bay County. However, there was no one there. The interiors of the entire mansion seemed like it was ransacked.”Alex asked, “How could this be?”It was actually Sabrina’s idea to let Garrett go to Bay County in advance. Twelve days ago, Alex had locked himself in the Poole residence in Kidon City once he had returned from the northeastern area. No one knew what he had done all alone in the study for two whole days and nights. He was actually liquidating his assets. Throughout his whole life, he had been fighting hard for his parent’s glory from a young age. He also thought that he could get everything he wanted through his own hard work in this life. However, the f
All the things that she had silently done for him were irreplaceable by others. What was the use of having more maids at home? They could not put things in place as she did. They could not arrange his closet the way she used to do it. Most importantly, they could not say to him, “Alex, I love you.”Alex, I love you.Her shadows seemed to have been nailed in his mind. It turned out that he had not wasted the past decade because he had waited for Lily. It turned out that he was actually unknowingly enjoying the gentle and silent love that she had given to him during the past ten years. That was why he did not become extremely dispirited in those years.How many decades could a person get in life? If Jane was not in his life in the future, then what was the meaning of his hard work, glory, power, and his everything?Therefore, after he had helped Jane settle down in the northeast, he then made a decision. The only purpose for him to be alive in his remaining years was just t
Over on this end of the line, Alex was already incomparably anxious. “Tell me! Is Jane alright? What exactly happened?”“Master…Madam and her current man had opened a restaurant in Bay County. However, someone had come over to find fault with them right after they had started their business. No…it didn’t seem like they were here to find fault with them. Those people had concrete evidence and said that Madam’s restaurant was involved in some illegal business.”Alex was speechless.Garrett continued. “Also…also…”“Speak!” said Alex as he flew into a rage. If Garrett was by his side at that moment, he would have beaten him up into a pulp!“It seemed…like you were the one who gave the order.”“What?” There was a pause before Alex asked with clear articulation. “What the hell is going on?”Garrett said with an awkward tone, “Master, when you...sent me here to Bay County. You had told me that the madam has a slightly better impression of me, and you asked me to tell her that it
Alex’s summer house that was located halfway up the mountain was usually kept empty. That was because Alex was not often in South City. Ever since Jane had left, that place had become even more desolate. Originally, as Alex was going to spend many days in South City, Sebastian did not want to let him stay at that place. Sebastian had already arranged a place for Alex to stay, but Alex just was not willing to stay there. Alex insisted on staying at the desolate place halfway up the mountain. This was because there were Jane’s shadows everywhere here. Also, because Jane had been kicked out of this place by him. Therefore, every single time he came back to this place and sat in the large living room, he would think of that day from three days ago. The way he kicked her out was calm and heartless. She had left so quietly, and she did not even say anything to pester him. Every time he thought of it, Alex wanted to raise his powerful fist and violently punch himself in the head. It would
Alex immediately raised his head and looked over. If that woman who stood in front of the iron gate was not Lily, then who was it? It was late winter, and everything had withered. However, Lily wore a white mink coat. That mink coat appeared to be dazzling in the winter. Lily appeared to be extremely noble with that white mink coat and also that coffee-colored crocodile leather belt. Lily's skin was very well taken care of. That white mink coat brought out her rosy cheeks and made her look very energetic. She was wearing knee boots and was looking at Alex with a smile. She then called out daintily, “Darling Alex…”Alex got out of the car with a cold and solemn expression. “Why are you here?”Lily looked like she had a glow. “Well, I had recently got the lady of the Ford family, Rose, as my godmother. She misses me, so I came over to accompany her for a few days. Alex, although we had broken up, we’re still friends in my heart. As a friend, can’t I come and visit you?” Lily asked
She could console him! She must console him gently!Lily was not afraid of Alex’s cold and stern gaze. She just walked seductively towards Alex, swaying her hips from side to side. It would be best if she was able to sleep with Alex right there that night.“Alex…” Lily became slightly gentler. She raised her slender wrist and stroked Alex’s icy cold face. “Don’t be sad anymore, Alex. I know you’re heartbroken. If you need me to, I’ll accompany you to go look for her again. How about that? I’m very sorry. I was impulsive back then, and I was too full of myself as well. If I hadn’t returned, then you would not have chased her away, wouldn’t you? It was all my fault. I was the one who caused you to lose her. I’ll accompany you to go get her back now, alright, Alex?“Although…” At that point, Lily suddenly got a little choked up. She covered her face sadly and her tone became slightly more miserable. “Although I love you very much, I know you don’t love me anymore. I will not force you,
Lily was wearing high heels, so she was practically unable to stand still. In the end, she fell right in front of Alex’s car.Andrew, who was still thinking that his master should reconcile with Miss Lily, was thoroughly stunned. Lily has blood streaming out of her nose after being slapped by Alex. The blood then dripped on her mink coat that was pure white, which made it look glaring. There was also blood on the car window. Lily was shocked when she looked at her blood.At that moment, she suddenly realized that she could not fool Alex easily. What had Alex found out and how much did Alex actually know? He was far away in South City, so how could he have possibly known what she had done in the past half a month?However, at that moment, Lily already had no time to think too much about it anymore. There was only fear left in her heart. The only thing left was fear.Before she could react in time, Alex, who was behind her, had already taken a big step forward and came to the front o
“Darling Alex, you have loved me for ten years. Was that all fake? You’re the man I love the most in this world! It was you who told me that you have been loving me. Were you lying to me? Not only do you not love me, but you want to beat me to death too? You actually would beat the woman you had loved for ten years to death?”At that moment, Lily had no other better way but to keep reminding Alex that she was the girl whom Alex had once loved the most. She wanted to use that to let Alex pity her, then only she could escape death. This was because she could tell Alex truly wanted to get her killed by beating her up that day. Alex had indeed stopped. Lily had a sense of joy as if she had escaped death. “Darling Alex, you could not bear to beat me up, right? You still love me very much. You had once doted on me very much and was very tolerating with me…”Alex suddenly pinched Lily’s chin so hard that she felt as if her lower jaw was going to be shattered. Alex did not have the inten
