The man hesitated, "Gloria, go and talk to him, help me discuss the big IP script we've been working on. If you can make it happen, I'll surely take good care of you!" Alan spoke, his eyes revealing some lust as he reached out to embrace me.

Abandoning for wealth and cheating with a so-called tycoon's daughter, now that you know I know the boss, you shamelessly cling on.'' I couldn't stand it and kicked again. "How did I not know you were so disgusting before? If you're really short of money, I might as well burn some for you!"

The man gasped in pain, barely able to stand. His expression darkened, his eyes glaring at me with gritted teeth. "Gloria, I came here today to give you face. Don't push it! You'd better listen to me, or you'll regret it." As he spoke, Alan menacingly reached out for me.
