Lumi’s strength was nothing compared to Samuel’s.Samuel did not notice that Lumi’s face was turning white. His reason had long been overwhelmed with rage, and his gaze was ruthless and dark.“Tell me! What do you want me to do for you to forgive me? You really are a spoiled young lady who isn’t as obedient as your sister. Lumi, you succeeded!”Lumi could not help but tilt her head back and cough.It was as if his force was dragging her into hell.The next second, the bathroom door suddenly opened.Ian went over with a sullen face and pushed Samuel away.Samuel did not expect that the person inside would dare to interfere. He stumbled backward from the force.When Samuel saw the person who pushed him, his face darkened.Samuel’s eyes were viciously bloodthirsty.Without hesitation, Samuel raised his fist toward Ian.However, the guilt that Ian felt earlier was swept away. Ian suddenly twisted Samuel’s arm and slammed him against the wall.Ian grew up learning kickboxing wit
Samuel thought to himself, ‘It’s just a marriage alliance! Now that she cheated on me, I won’t be able to put up with it!’He sneered. The corners of his mouth twitched as he glared at Ian with a ruthless gaze. “This is your choice? To choose a trust fund baby who’s always thinking about another man’s wife? Ian has never been serious about the women around him because he only has eyes for Nicole. Do you really want to make a fool of yourself?”Ian’s expression changed dramatically. “F*ck you! Are you sick in the head?!”Lumi laughed lightly as if she did not care.“I’m only making a fool of myself if I stay with you. If you don’t finalize the divorce, I won’t just have Ian by my side. In the future, I’ll let the media know every time I get a new man so that the whole world will know that your wife has had plenty of affairs!”Lumi was forcing Samuel to make a decision.There was no better time than now.Even if she was at a loss, Lumi did not want to get entangled with this man.
Samuel regretted saying those hurtful words.However, before Samuel could show his regret, Ian smashed his fist into Samuel’s face.Samuel’s head tilted to the side. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his mind instantly sobered up.Ian said, “You’re just a pervert who’s resentful just because Lumi dumped you! Would you die if you didn’t insult women?”Samuel spat, and his throat bobbed.He stared at Ian and despised him for meddling in his business.In the next second, Lumi stepped forward and slapped Samuel.Samuel’s expression turned glum.That slap felt hot and painful.Samuel’s face was numb, but his heart instantly sank.He finally realized that it was truly over between them.Lumi’s tone was extremely cold, and her voice was indifferent.“I hate it most when people compare me with other women. Since you like Kirsi so much, I’ll let you be together. You can either come with me and get a divorce now, or I’ll tell everyone about your scandal with Kirsi!
After all, Mrs. Lindstrom was very kind to Lumi when Lumi was still married to Samuel.Her mother-in-law did not make things difficult for her.Therefore, with the right conditions, Lumi agreed without hesitation.“Sure, Mrs. Lindstrom. I’ll delete it as soon as I receive what you promised me.”Mrs. Lindstrom paused for a few seconds and wanted to say something, but she held back.“Alright. Thanks, Lumi.”Although Mrs. Lindstrom did not like that Lumi was not willing to take any losses and Lumi’s sudden change in attitude after the divorce, this matter was originally Samuel’s fault.If they continued to argue, the situation would worsen, and everyone would be at a loss.In the end, the matter between Samuel and Lumi ended when Lumi deleted her post and got a large sum of money from Mrs. Lindstrom.Samuel did not know why, but he did not object to it and only kept silent without responding to anything.For Lumi, this was a big victory. On the surface, the two of them had a p
“I didn’t talk nonsense!” Nicole shook her phone.Ian was furious, but when he saw her happy and cheeky smile, his anger dissipated.“Forget it. Why did you ask me to come over?”Nicole laughed. “I asked you to come over and have fun! Don’t you like this kind of occasion the most?”Ian had the most fun in this kind of scene, but he felt uncomfortable today, and Nicole seemed to have sensed it.Ian’s face was a little flustered. He frowned and said, “I have something else to do. I’m leaving if there’s nothing else.”Nicole stopped him. Seeing that Ian was uncomfortable, she did not say anything.“Wait a sec. Let me go to the bathroom, then we can leave together. Send me to the golf course.”Ian glanced at the time and sighed helplessly.Never mind.He did not want to be calculative with her.Ian tossed up the car keys in his hand and rushed her in an arrogant tone.“Hurry up, then! I’m not waiting for anyone!”Nicole clicked her tongue and went straight out.Soon, Nicole s
When Ian heard Nicole’s words, he said angrily, “I’m also a righteous man, but you didn’t pick me!”Nicole clicked her tongue and frowned.“Carter, I take you as my best friend, so don’t push it!”Ian chuckled. “Forget it. I’m just trying to scare you.”Nicole looked at him. Her tone was soft and solemn.“You’ll find your true love because you’re the best there is, Ian.”Ian’s eyes flickered. He smiled.He suddenly let go of all those pent-up emotions that he could not let go of in the past.It was like his obsession had come to an end.Nicole said he was the best there is.The best.That was enough for him.“That’s right! You’re the blind one for not falling for me!”Ian’s arrogant tone made Nicole laugh.“Yes, yes… I’m blind.”As soon as he finished speaking, Ian’s phone suddenly rang.He glanced at it and saw that it was from Lumi.Nicole also saw the caller ID and raised her eyebrows, looking like she was watching the drama unfold.Ian settled his heart and answer
Eric was silent for a moment as certain emotions surged in his eyes.“I’m sorry…”“Who was that man just now?”Nicole asked.She had to be wary of those who wanted to get back at her.Eric closed his eyes.“You don’t need to know. He can’t touch you.”Nicole chuckled.“Eric Ferguson, I can’t believe that you’re working with such a person. How could you do such a thing?”That person could even be called a scum. He might have something to do with an international criminal organization.How could Eric work with this group of people?Were they business partners?Eric smiled. His face was pale.“It looks like your impression of me isn’t so bad after all, huh?”Nicole was dumbfounded and turned to leave.Eric paused. His throat moved, and his voice was rough.“Clayton isn’t in the country, right? Where did he go?”“Thanks for your concern.”Nicole’s voice was cold.Although Nicole heard about the Ferguson family’s situation from Floyd, she did not believe that Eric had no
“Are the higher-ups thinking of taking back the military project and handing it over to Eric Ferguson?”Floyd’s speculation was not without reason.Grant said, “They didn’t say it explicitly, but I don’t think they’ll do that. Eric’s advantages aren’t enough to counter the immense benefits brought by the South African base. I think the higher-ups might want us to have sole ownership of the project. Or at least, they want us to have control over it and not be passive. After all, this military project involves various countries’ sensitive aspects and can’t be ignored.”Hearing this, Nicole suddenly felt her limbs turning cold.Eric’s words during the day flooded into her mind again.She had a feeling that Clayton’s project might have really gone wrong.Nicole subconsciously pushed the door open and walked in.Grant and Floyd did not expect Nicole to come back at this time, so they were startled.Floyd responded first.“You came back so soon? Did you have a good time?”Nicole pa
