Chapter 11

ish gazed at Calvert, her lips curling into a sneer as she bit down on his prominent Adam’s apple the next second. She was nfuriated and showed no mercy.

Calvert hissed in pain and pushed her away forcefully. Holding his neck, he looked at the specks of blood on his palm and rowned deeply. “Are you crazy?”

ish ground her teeth angrily and glared at him, responding coldly. “Get lost!”

ust then, the elevator arrived at the first floor. Ash stomped on his foot and squeezed through the gap before the doors fully pened.

Watching her proud figure leave. Calvert couldn’t help but laugh at her absurdity. ‘She really is quite the character‘

The next day. Ash was awakened by a phone call. Feeling groggy, she answered the call somewhat irritably, “Who is it?”

The person on the other end immediately recognized that Ash was still half asleep and spoke more softly. “Ms. Turner, here’s been an issue with the Moreno family?

Ash didn’t respond. prompting the caller to continue. The Moreno family collaborated with the Ford family on a project a few days ago and lost 300 million dollars overnight. We also suffered a loss of over 70 million dollars, so I wanted to ask if we should consider pulling out our shares?”

“Got it. I’ll take care of it later. Ash said before hanging up, now completely awake.

She got out of bed, washed up, and got dressed. As she went downstairs, she saw Jade with red–rimmed eyes sitting in front

of Brooke

Thinking Jade was up to her usual mischief, Ashwas surprised when Jade approached her and bowed. “What I did last night was wrong, and I hope you can forgive me.

“Oh. I hadn’t even bothered with it, Ash replied coldly, Seeing Jade still in her way, she asked, “Anything else?”

Jade shook her head and moved aside.

Noticing Brooke didn’t look well, Ash handed her a business card I know this traditional medicine practitioner quite well; you might want to see him

The card bore only an address, no name.

“Mom’s condition 14 more severe than most peoples, ordinary practitioners can’t cure her. I’ve already asked any friend to find Dr. Prunella Gross, the only one who can treat Mom now, Jade suddenly said, her words laced with disdain for Ash.

Ash glanced at her but remained silent

Thinking Ath dele know who Prunella was, Jade quickly explained, “Prunella is a remarkable doctor. It’s said she can even bring back to life those who have just died

Ath remained calm, That’s quite impressive

She had never realized how renowned she was outside, but unfortunately, she had sworn off practicing medicine tive years ago Had it not been absolutely necessary last night, she probably wouldn’t even have used acupuncture treatment.

Chapter 11

Ash stopped and turned to see Tristan’s Maybach whizzing past her before parking nearby.

Ash’s eyes flickered briefly but didn’t linger, instead turning toward the building’s elevator.

“Jewel, Ash had just taken a few steps when Samantha called out to her.

Without stopping. Ash pressed the elevator button briskly.

It really was annoying people doing annoying things. Samantha and Tristan followed closely behind Ash into the elevator. “Jewel, if I remember correctly, you no longer have any connection with the Moreno family, do you? What brings you here again!” Tristan, still upset about their last encounter, addressed Ash with less cordiality than before.

Samantha pretended to be understanding while basking in her own smugness. “Tristan, don’t say that. She is a Morenos after all, and as long as she apologizes to Dad and Mom, the Moreno family will welcome her back.”

Tristan pinched her cheek playfully. “You’re so kind–hearted, defending those who even mistreat you.”

Watching the two of them tag–team each other, Ash could hardly contain her eye–rolling. She hadn’t said a word from beginning to end yet these two

were putting on a show,

Ash remained silent, tuning out the two completely.

Feeling ignored and humiliated, Samantha clenched her teeth, clung to Tristan, and whined, “Is Ash still holding a grudge

Against meas

Luable to take it anymore. Ash glanced at Samantha. “You really know how to overact. It’s just a few floors and you’ve already put on a whole movie. Even the best actors aren’t as dedicated as you?”

Samantha’s face turned pale in an instant.

Noticing Samantha’s teary, vulnerable look, Tristan immediately comforted her with a hug and a pat on the back, then turned lais stern gaze on Ash. “Do you have to be so harsh

Ash felt helpless Oh my god can’t the two just disappear?”

The elevator continued its ascent, and thankfully, it reached the 22nd floor. Ash stepped out without hesitation. Her indifference lef Tristan feeling frustrated. She seems to have truly let go, decisively leaving no room for us: “Tristan Samantha called several times, but Tristan was so absorbed in thoughts of Ash that he didn’t hear her. Watching Ash walk away, a flicker of hatred crossed Samantha’s eyes.

Dexter had received several such calls that morning. He couldn’t understand why, following one project’s failure, people were queuing up to cancel their collaborations with him. He started to wonder if he had offended someone.

‘Regardless, we can’t lose Shadow Ventures, Dexter thought to himself. Then he instructed his secretary, “Keep trying to reach the person in charge at Shadow Ventures.

As soon as Ash entered, she noticed the commotion within the company.

Initially, she came to assess the situation. If it was just a minor mistake, she was willing to continue investing. After all, having the upper hand over the Moreno family and spending money for pleasure was something she enjoyed.

But as soon as she approached, Dexter flew into a rage for no apparent reason. “What are you doing here? Are you trying to make things worse for me? Or did you come to gloat over my misfortune? Jewel, since when did you become so mercenary? Call security: get her out of here!”
