Mr. Warren, I'm throwing it out right now!"
Burry watched as his bosss face darkened, quickly sealing up the package and calling for it to be taken away.
it back Alex spoke in an annoyed tone.
Everyone turned their gaze over
Justin said. "Uncle Alex, with your status, you can have any woman you want. Why go for a fake one?"
Layton chimed in. "Mex, this wouldn't happen to be from that girl, would it?"
If it were anyone else. Alex would have already gone after them with a sword instead of letting it slide.
Alex came over, grabbed the big box from Barry's arms, and took it directly into the office lounge in front of everyone.
The people behind him looked at each other, but no one dared to speak up.
At noon, Evan saw Alex pull a large box from the car's trunk and quickly called for help.
"No need" Alex, with a stem look, carried the box upstairs by himself.
At the master bedroom on the second floor. Alex opened the box and saw the mixed-race silicone doll Ellie had given him, feeling so angry his chest hurt.
He stood up, angrily grasped the doll by the neck, and dragged it into the cloakroom. Pulling open a top shelf cabinet, he shut the doll away inside Standing still for a moment, Alex turned around to leave.
As he reached the doorway, he paused, spun back and took the doll out again.
Alex opened the wardrobe and shoved the doll inside.
Who knows what he touched, but the doll suddenly let out a soft moan.
Alex was speechless.
A few minutes later, Alex firully found the doll's "switch" and, with a dark expression, threw the doll onto his bed.
Alex took off his jacket and stood at the foot of the bed, with a thin layer of sweat covering him.
"You little brat, if you make another sound. I'll squeeze the life out of you" Alex pointed at the doll on the bed, gritting his teeth.
"You don't even care when I'm hurt!
"Send this thing to my office."
"Such a daft 105!"
Alex was so furious he felt drained, sitting straight against the wall and lighting a cigarette.
He took out his phone, opened Ellie's chat, and quickly typed a message.
Hesitating, he deleted it all and started anew, contemplating his words, then erasing again the pattern continued.
At 3 PM, Alex was followed by his assistant, Chris, and his trusted confidant, Barry, as they exited the CEO's private elevator.
"I never expected our boss to be so handsome and yet such a flin

"Rich people tend to be a bit eccentric. They probably do even crazier things in private."
"Our boss is both handsome and wealthy. Who knows how many women have tried to get into his bed, yet still, he's never satisfied. He must have quite the appetite"
"I think Ales might not be into women"
"What do you think, is Alex the dominant one or not?"
Not far away, Alex's face was dark with anger, his fists clenched tightly.
Sering this, Chris rushed over. Tell your manager to come see me.
A few employees turned around, their faces changing dramatically when they saw Chris.
In the executive office, Alex angrily threw his jacket onto the sofa.
He had just picked up his coffee and hadn't taken a sip yet, when Barry nervously handed him the phone. "Mr. Warren, it's the police station calling
When they arrived at the sta
station, they found out that Justin had beaten up Leonard. Ellie had reported it, and Justin was brought into the station.
Outside the police station, Alex watched Ellie and Leonard walk out together, his deep-set eyes flickering with uncertainty.
He stood by the car without moving, his steady gaze locked onto Ellie.
"Uncle Alex, that's the guy" Justin pointed at Leonard standing next to Ellie. "That's the guy holding Ellie's hand. I saw it myself Alex frowned, pulled his gaze away, and gave Justin a warning look. "Shut up!" Justin posted. "Uncle Alex, that guy wants to mess with you! He's flirting with Ellie. That homewrecker deserves a beating!"
Alex was at a loss for words.
Harry, on the other side of the black Bentley, quietly ducked his head.
Seeing Ellie not even give him a glance as she walked with Leonard to a nearby white sedan, Alex turned and got into his car "Justin, listen up! Don't go bothering them."
Alex sat in the backseat of the luxury car, watching through the window as Ellie and Leonard stood talking beside the car nearby. Justin said, "Uncle Alex, if she's not your woman, then I'm going after her.
Seeing Alex remain silent. Justin rubbed his hands excitedly. "I thought Ellie was with you, Uncle Alex
Alex replied coolly. "If you're not scared of her coming after you, go ahead and give it a shot
Watching Ellie get into Leonard's car and leave, Alex gently closed his eyes and said, "Let's head back to the office."
Because of the incident involving Justin and Leonard, Ellie decided to take the day off
When she got home in the afternoon, she was surprised to find Aaron had actually come back. "Aaron, did you take time off?" "Have some things to do, heading out for a bit.
Aaron didn't look very well, and after a quick chat with Ellie, he hurried out the door.
Before 3 P31, Aaron arrived at the Mosley residence.

Declan noticed Aaron seemed preoccupied and asked, "Is work going well lately!"
Aaron replied, "Thanks for asking, professor. Everything's going well."
Following Aaron's gaze to the staircase, Declan smiled and said, "Diana is in the music room. Go ahead"
Caught off guard by his teacher, Aaron felt too embarrassed to know what to say.
However, he gathered his courage and headed upstairs,
At the door of Duna's room on the third floor, Aaron knocked.
Hearing Diana's voice from inside, Aaron opened the door and stepped in.
Although he had been to the Grant Manor before, it was his first time going upstairs, especially to Diana's r
Just outside the living room, Diana was in a bright green coral fleece pajama set, sprawled over the coffee table sketching-
She knelt barefoot on the carpet, her pink slippers scattered-one near the bedroom door and the other under her knee. Sketches were piled high on the coffee table, while a bag of snacks lay scattered on the keyboard
The couch was a mess with scattered pillows, scarves, and jackets....
The more Aaron looked, the deeper his frown of concern grew.
"What are you d
doing here?
Seeing Aaron, Diana swiftly tossed her pen and lunged for the sofa.
With quick reflexes, Aaron grabbed the handbag on the sofa before Diana could.
"Give it back!"
Though she held a black belt in taekwondo, Diana's skills were no match for Aarons, but her reflexes were incredibly fast.
She wrapped her legs around Aaron's waist, pinning him on the couch, threatening. "Give it back or I'll yell harassment!"
Suddenly feeling empty-handed, Aaron watched as the handbag was flung into the bedroom by Diana.
With a quick move, he flipped her over, pinning her to the couch as he tried to pry her legs apart to enter the bedroom, grabbing something from his bag, only to be held back by her again. Aaron commanded. "Let go of your legs and let me in"
She snapped back, "No way!"
Aaron insisted, "Give it to me!"

refused, "Not a chance!"
She warned, "If you try anything. I'll have my brothers beat you!"
Suddenly, there was a collective gasp from the doorway, followed by a thud as someone fell inside
She looked towards the door
or and saw her brothers all staring directly at her and Aaron.

More than ten minutes later, in the reception hall on the first floor of the Grant Manor.
Aaron had no idea how it happened, but in just over ten minutes, all of Diana's brothers had arrived.
Declan and his wife, Gloria, sat in the center. Aaron was on Declan's left, while on his right sat the eldest brother Patrick and his wife Winnie, along with the second brother Lsicas, the third brother Mark, the fourth brother Joey, the fifth brother Tim, and the sixth brother Liam
Diana sat on a couch with her seventh brother, Steven, by themselves.
At the entrance, the burler waited, while all the servants remained outside.
inte kept giving Diana knowing glances and said. "Hey, Diana, are you and Mr. Thompson planning to announce your relationship?" Before Dhana could respond, Aaron quickly interjected, "I'm sorry! This is a misunderstanding: Diana and I aren't what everyone thinks!" Dhana turned to Steven with a teasing smile and asked, "Steven, is it such a scandal to have a crush on me?
Steven replied.
Aaron fell silent
"Come on, you're beautiful and sweet. Whoever marries you will be set for life!"
Declan said firmly. "Aaron is my most talented student. You all better not bully him"
Liam jumped in, "Don't worry, Dad! We consider Mr. Thompson family. How could we ever bully him?"
This was Aaron's first encounter with Diana's brothers, and he really wanted to escape.
"Um, Professor, I have something to do. I'll just head our first." He stood up, bracing himself to speak
Tim quickly stood up and urged. "Why not stay for dinner?"
"Food can be eaten anytime. If he has business to attend to, just let him go," Diana said, pleased that Aaron was about to leave. In front of everyone,

"You better agree to what I said, or I'll hang your underwear from the flagpole at your workplace?" Diana warned playfully as she pushed Aaron out, not forgetting to issue her threat.
After sending Aaron off, all eyes turned to
Diana.
Winnie said. "Take it easy, Diana. Aaron isn't Alex; don't scare him off.
Steven posed a direct question, "Just say it straight. Do you think you can make it?"
Diana replied confidently. Tve already got what he values most; isn't it just a matter of time before he comes around?"
Liam chimed in, "Diaru, you have billions. A guy who's willing to chase you won't be that hard to find."
Tim added, "Liam, just keep quiet for a bit. Diana could be even crazier than Alex sometimes. Who would even want her?"
Diana placed her hands on her hips in frustration, saying, "If Aaron marries me, it'll be his blessing, got it?"
Tim shot back, "If Aaron, such a straight-laced guy, can handle you, he'll have my greatest respect.
Gloria interjected gently, "Aaron is a good kid. Don't bully him, Diana"
Diana looked up at her dad with an innocent expression
Declan sighed, "What a waste of such a good student"
Diana was rendered speechless.
