In the next second, he pressed his lips against hers, and he began kissing her passionately.
The sound of her calling his name was the most beautiful thing he had ever heard. In fact, he wanted to
treasure it for the rest of his life.
Recently, various news outlets across the city had begun reporting on the Wayne family’s tax evasion

It was reported that the Waynes had paid back a considerable sum for their taxes and fines, which led
to a severe restriction in their cash flow. Due to the incident, no bank was willing to give any loans to
the Waynes as well.

There was a likelihood that they might have to start to restructure their assets and get acquired by

Yuna askle, the girls whom she called her “besties” all disappeared overnight.
Before leaving, one of them had said to her directly. “Julia, you were way too lnquilsive. If a man like
Jackson decided to bring a lady to a social event, do you think he’d be unaware of her background? A
convict? Haha! She may be an unsightly stain, but Jackson can turn a homeless woman into a princess
If he wanted to.”
Julla was stunned when she heard those words. Indeed, she had forgotten the fact that Jackson was
no ordinary person. How
could lie not know about his own woman?
“Not to mention, the Halls didn’t speak up about this, did they? So why were you so concerned?”
