After a long while, he staggered as if he couldn't bear it anymore, took half a step back, and looked at Ashley firmly: "I understand." He turned around, opened the office door, and walked away. As soon as he turned back, he said firmly: "Ashley, this is your choice, don't blame me." 

Ashley felt her heart was unclear, and a secretary brought water in, blocking Bentley's way: "Water..." 


Bentley didn't even look, raised his hand, and pushed her away: "Go away." 

"Ah, it's too hot." 

Ashley was angry: "Bentley, you're too much, using a little girl to vent your anger, how can you claim to be a Patterson family member." 


 Bentley stopped, turned around, and glanced at Ashley with a cold smile: "That's right, I'm not like a member of the Patterson family, you are the most of the Patterson family." He sneered, raised his head, and looked around, "Now that I'm about to die, the Patterson family will naturally be yours. Are you satisfied?"

Then, he suddenly spoke: "I understand." He suddenly pointed at Ashley: "I understand, why all the transplants were successful, but you hesitated to donate bone marrow to me."


Bentley revealed a helpless smile: "Ashley, I have leukemia you are already very happy in your heart, right? You just wish me to die quickly. If I die, you can openly take possession of everything in the Patterson house. Ashley, you are a wolf.  I misjudged you."

Ashley stood at the office door, she let go of the secretary's hand, six or seven meters away from her, looking at the person at the end of the corridor, except for Milan, who was the most familiar male face to her.

They grew up together, and today he said she was a wolf.

She looked at the person at the end of the road, her whole body couldn't help but tremble.

On her shoulder, an arm gently patted her. "Ashley, it's okay, I believe you."

Kane gently patted Ashley's shoulder, little by little Bentley seemed to have just discovered that there was another man in her office, his eyes assessed Kane for a while, then stopped on Kane's face, just in time to catch that fierce gaze, just a glance, then immediately avoided that terrifying gaze.

But he didn't want to appear weak in front of another man, so suddenly raised his head, and mockingly said: "Do you think the woman beside you is simple and innocent? Do you think she is weak and needs to be protected? Haha, look, such a big Patterson Group, I was originally the eldest grandson of the Patterson family, but now I am in her hands. My father was forced by her, although he was not old enough to retire, he still had to live a retired life. We are also her family, she is still so cruel. Speaking of outsiders, I advise you to be careful, don't let her fool you. She is very good at acting. Even the cold and arrogant Milan was fooled by her..."

"Bentley." After a scream of horror, Ashley's whole body trembled. Her face was ashen looking at the person at the end of the road, closing her eyes, when she opened her eyes, her eyes were dry, without ripples: "That's right, I am a wolf, Bentley, you guessed it right, I am very happy, I just hope you don't die early. I only know how to do this, the Patterson Group is now mine. Are you not satisfied?"

 Lifting her chin, she laughed provocatively: 'If you have the ability, then snatch the Patterson Group from me. Ha… it's just a pity that you won't live much longer. What? Are you angry?"

Her expression changed, her entire face turned cold, her eyes were cold, and she said coldly: 'If you have the patience, then live, live to be a hundred years old."

Bentley gritted his teeth and looked at Ashley: 'Don't worry. I will live." He said: 'I will live well." He laughed coldly: 'Don't regret it."

Ashley stared at the determined figure leaving until she could no longer see his back. She tried her best to resist everything and glanced at the people around her: 'It's okay, go do your work."

The people below immediately dispersed. She turned around and saw the burned secretary picking up the broken pieces on the floor.

'Stop picking. I'll give you half a day off. Go to the hospital and treat the burn on your hand.  "Call the maid here." Ashley said and thought for a moment: "Okay, no need to call the maid anymore. Go to the hospital." The secretary looked up at Ashley gratefully and said, "Thank you, President, thank you, thank you."

The secretary appeared obedient and honest, unconsciously, Ashley's stiff face also became much gentler, "Go, be careful on the road, don't be too hasty, if the HR department asks, just say that I gave you leave."

The secretary said before turning around and leaving: "President, you are very good, unlike what others say."

The words just came out, she immediately covered her mouth, her face full of regret... As if she didn't want the president to think that she was talking behind her back, she cautiously and carefully looked at Ashley in front of her, but she found that she didn't seem to hear what she said, you smiled lightly and waved at her: "Go quickly."

"Yes." She felt relieved in her heart, her immature face revealed a happy smile: "Thank you, Miss Ashley." Even the words became more cheerful and clear. Ashley's lost heart swept across that carefree young face, her eyes contained the tolerance of an elder.

Only then did she suddenly feel that she had gone through those chaotic years, growing old little by little.

The surroundings were quiet, the corridor was deserted, looking in that direction there was not a single person, the familiar feeling of fatigue rushed back, it was just that, she still couldn't relax, she still had guests here.

"Mr. Kane, I'm sorry today, letting you witness this scene." She said apologetically, politely, and distantly.

Kane heard this, the bottom of his eyes suddenly darkened... he still couldn't get close to her. He looked at the girl in front of him again, her attitude was polite and distant, her smile was bright, and she looked very gentle, but there was a feeling of coldness and distance... He remembered her from three years ago.

"Regarding the matter of adding cooperation, I have already told you about Patterson Group's opinion just now, you can think about it, adding cooperation will bring double benefits to both you and me."

In Kane's eyes, he was increasingly disappointed... He didn't want to hear these boring work stories... couldn't he just talk about daily life, talk a little about himself?

"The person just now is the son of the Patterson family, right?" Of course he, as the son of the Patterson family, just now the other party took the initiative to mention his identity, what Kane wanted to say was: "Bentley, I heard his name, does he have leukemia?"

Although he asked Ashley, it was like he was recounting.

Living in this S City, who doesn't know that the Patterson family has recently undergone a major change?

Including Bentley's terminal illness.
