"Max?" The Smith's frowned, eyes held contempt as they glared at the figure who had strided into the office.The lady's expression also darkened, but didn't say anything and just watched as Max walked into the room then straight towards Fiona.Fiona on the other hand felt her breath coming back. Just now, she felt suffocated under the overwhelming pressure the Smith family placed on her.But the moment Max walked into the office. All the pressure disappeared and it felt the safest.She couldn't help but feel a wave of guilt in her heart. This man truly loved her, she could tell and besides, she knew what had happened five years ago was not his fault either.Besides, he also hadn't had it easy in the past five years, so it was wrong to take out all of her anger on him and most importantly, she shouldn't have talked to him the way she did the day before."I'm here now, don't worry, no one would be able to force you to do what you don't want," Max whispered, grabbing Fiona's hands, then

Hearing the voice, Fiona's expression changed. Max also frowned slightly as he recognized the voice.That was his mother-in-law. There was no mistaking that. She was definitely the one."I said open this door! Do you want me to bring it down?" Morgan's yell came as she pounded on the door pulling the two out of their thoughts."Don't worry, I'll go answer it," Fiona stopped Max who was about to stand.Walking to the door, she took in a deep breath. She knew whatever her mother wanted wasn't something nice.Besides, she was sure it was her family who had sent her. Otherwise, her mother would never come visiting.In the past five years, ever since she was kicked to the curb, her mother came to see her only twice.The first was when she was ordered to abort the child but she refused. And the second was when she was forcefully taken away so she would be married off.Apart from these, her mother never called, nor texted to see how she was. If it were not for Amelia, she didn't know how she

"Wait!" Fiona called, stopping Morgan from leaving as she wrestled with her emotions.On one side was her mother even though she didn't act like one. But she was still her mother anyway. On the other side was her husband, one who had given up a great opportunity for her.What would she do? She was caught up in a dilemma.Leave her mother and choose to be with her husband? No, that didn't seem like a good choice.Does that mean she'll have to leave her husband for her mother and get herself into a problem?No, that didn't seem like a good choice either.So what would she do?"Come on, why are you still hesitating, let's leave already," Morgan broke the silence, grabbing Fiona's hands wanting to leave."I..." Fiona stuttered clearly torn between the two moral choices laid before her."Are you still hesitant?" Morgan frowned, noticing Fiona didn't leave."Are you choosing him over me?" Morgan snapped, glaring at Fiona. The tears before had seemed to have disappeared all of a sudden."But

If he was the one, he was not going to be scared of the explosion, after all, it was going to have no effects on him, but this time, there was another life involved.Getting into the car, Tiger raised his legs and kicked the front part of the car that had crushed the old man's legs."Bang!"A loud sound resounded throughout the place and the crowd couldn't help but scream while some covered their eyes since they thought it was the explosion.Looking over, they noticed that the fire had not yet gotten to the car. But just now, the violent kick from Tiger had caused the friction to increase and thus, the fire was only a few seconds away from the car.Tiger couldn't care less and grabbed the old man whose legs had been relieved of the weight, turned around, and jumped away."Boom!"A loud explosion resounded throughout the whole bridge just right after Tiger jumped and the bridge shook a little.Tiger landed a few meters away from the fire and then placed the old man on the floor, then t

"Grandmother, I've signed it." Fiona broke the silence, calling Ethan's attention to herself.She was still a little bit shocked, though the shock didn't prevent her from signing the contract."Since you've signed it, I would take the contract to the company and finalize everything." Ethan offered, taking the contract from the table and standing up."But...""You don't have to worry, I'll represent you this time around." Ethan shook his head interrupting Fiona."Also, it's just past eight; I suggest you resume to the company and start working on the product you signed the contract for; I'm afraid they would have zero patience to get their products," Ethan said."Yes grandmother, I'll go to the company today." Fiona agreed and stood up.After all, she was ready to go out, so there was no need for her to change. Also, just as her grandmother had said, they had to start with the production of the product right away.The company was a technological company, and they produced chips, proces
