A notification popped up on the screen. Cloud Piercer had sent her a message on WeChat. “Wifey, will you be online tonight? I’ve cleared all the daily tasks for you. Do you want to go to the dungeon with me tonight?” Georgie Clementine’s expressionless face instantly faded away and was replaced by a genuine smile. She quickly tucked the folders under her arm and replied to his message. “Sure.”Love…She might have met her love. In fact, it was cyber love. She did not have the slightest idea how the guy looked like or what he did for a living. She heard that he ran a company, and that was all she knew. The two of them had been playing games together every day recently, and her fondness for him only grew stronger and stronger as time went by.In Georgie’s imagination, Cloud Piercer was a smart, dependable, and assertive gentleman.***Meanwhile, there was an air of gloom and resentment hanging over the Sullivan family’s house. Emily Quest was currently sitting on the e

Just now, he had tried to knock on the door once more, but she ignored him. Nevertheless, he was not going to give up so easily. He must bring Rachel Wood back to Atlantis no matter what the cost. Gazing at the black car downstairs, Rachel’s heart was slowly torn to pieces. Buzz buzz buzz… Rachel’s phone vibrated. She had never seen this number before. She hesitated for a moment before answering the call. “Rachel! It’s me, Natalie. You still remember me, right?” A familiar voice rang in her ear, reminding her of the memories back in high school. Natalie Fisher, a girl who sat next to her in ninth grade. “How did you get my number?” Rachel asked. “I went to hospital today and met your mom. Your mom gave it to me. Speaking of which, our classmates are having a gathering tonight. Do you want to join us?” Natalie continued, “We haven’t seen you for years. Don’t tell me you can’t make it, okay? I won’t buy that. If you say ‘no’, we’re going to crash your house and pick y

Besides, he said that he was going to introduce several veterans to her. Hence, she agreed to go. After hanging up the phone, she realized that Stanley Batton had texted her two hours ago. “Honey, I’ve arrived.”Staring at that message, the corner of Xyla Quest’s soft lips gradually curved upward into a smile, happiness glowing within her. Without further ado, she video-called him. On the other end of the phone, Stanley was having a meeting in Kingstell, Country Y. He was currently sitting in a conference room of his branch office with a group of blonde executives, earnestly discussing the cause and solution regarding the phone’s explosion. The man kept a straight face all the time, and he could speak French fluently. The conference room was grand and spacious, yet the tension was palpable. Everyone was sitting on the edge of their seats, fearing that they would put their foot in it. Buzz buzz buzz…Stanley’s phone vibrated. Noticing that his wife was trying to video

The street was empty, and so was her heart. Rachel Wood took a deep breath and tried to convince herself that this was the best ending for the two of them. Swallowing the sad truth, she put the man out of her mind and left the house.Her grandmother was admitted to the hospital weeks ago, so her parents stayed at the hospital to take care of her. They rarely had time to come back. There was no one home besides her. Therefore, she did not have to inform anyone about her schedule. She could just go out anytime she wanted. Rachel booked a ride using Uber and headed straight to Edgewater Grand Hotel, which Natalie Fisher had mentioned on the phone earlier. She arrived at the entrance of the hotel at eight o’clock on the dot. There were a group of people gathered at the parking lot in front of the hotel. All of them could not help exclaiming at the red Ferrari. Rachel inched closer to the crowd. She found the girl standing next to the Ferrari familiar. She was the one sitti

When the two of them entered the private room, they found that almost everyone had already arrived. The two large tables in the room were both filled. As soon as Natalie Fisher caught sight of Rachel Wood, she rose to her feet and waved at her hysterically. “Rachel! Come over here!”Rachel returned a warm smile to Natalie before sitting down next to her. On the other hand, Mia Irvine took a seat beside Wennishe Sonders. The four of them shared the same table. Since Rachel joined the table, Natalie was the only one who kept holding her hand and chatting with her. The other old classmates would either give her a nod or briefly greet her, after which they placed all their attention on buttering up Wennishe. A few of them were already working, and most of them were still in university. However, none of them was doing as well as Wennishe. In comparison with them, Wennishe was like the most successful and powerful girl ever. Natalie leaned closer to Rachel and whispered

“Woah… Wennishe, you’re way too lucky.”Wennishe Sonders crossed her arms before her chest and smiled as she looked at everyone. She was enjoying their looks of admiration.Right then, she felt as if she was the beautiful swan while Rachel Wood was the ugly duckling in a children’s book.After eating, Wennishe invited everyone to karaoke.Since Rachel and Natalie Fisher didn’t want to go, they turned her down.The rest of the group began walking out of the hotel after Wennishe…Everyone stopped at the main entrance of the hotel.Wennishe turned to look at Rachel once again before walking up to her. “Rachel, are you really not coming?”“No. You guys have fun…” Rachel said.She actually didn’t even want to stay for dinner, but she thought she might appear impolite to leave just like that. Hence, she forced herself to suffer through the meal.Now, Rachel felt certain that she wouldn’t go with Wennishe to the karaoke bar.She wouldn’t give Wennishe the opportunity to derive plea

Rachel Wood frowned slightly as she looked at Sebastian Brenand. “Sorry, Mr. Brenand. I’ve already clearly explained what I needed to.”With that, she quickly walked over to the sidewalk and waved her hand for a taxi.Just before she opened the car door, Sebastian picked her up by her waist before chucking her into his black Bentley. He then buckled her seatbelt to keep her in the seat.After that, Sebastian got in from the other side and locked the door. He then stepped on the accelerator and drove quickly away.Everyone standing at the hotel’s main entrance was shocked by what they had just witnessed.“It feels like this powerful man is submissive to Rachel.”“He must love her with all his heart. Was he driving a Bentley? That must cost at least ten million dollars, right?”“Rachel’s really impressive. She has actually managed to find such a powerful man, and she got him under a leash too.”“She’s probably going to marry into a rich family at this rate.”Rachel’s ex-classmat

“Sigh. I really envy Rachel Wood. The car her man drives already cost over ten million dollars. I bet he has a significant amount of fixed assets…”“As long as Rachel gets married to him, she’d probably be able to earn a year’s worth of live stream income with just some pocket money from him, right?”Wennishe Sonders felt as if their words were like stakes piercing through her chest.However, she couldn’t argue against them. Instead, she lowered her head and quickly turned around before running away.After everyone watched her leave, they began maliciously attacking her with verbal comments.“She deserved it for being so arrogant. The things she said during the meal were awful.”“There’s a saying that no matter how good you are, there’s always someone better.”“Although Rachel managed to find such a good man, she still kept a low-profile. Clearly, we can tell who’s the better person between them.”***On a busy road, a black Bentley was speeding ahead of the rest of the cars.
