Zara Lowry once gave her heart to Yosef Webb, her boss and savior, risking everything in a whirlwind of passion. To him, however, she was nothing more than a reliable cog in his corporate machine.She was done with that, though.Yosef could not stand Zara's cool-headedness, her logic, her self-sufficiency. Yet, he eventually found the warmth and adoration he longed for in her eyes.Her eyes, however, were looking elsewhere. ***[In this story, neither the hero nor the heroine is perfect. This is not your typical tale of a successful female lead. Yosef is a jerk, but is later changed to become a man who would do anything for love. This is a tale of a tsundere man, and it takes many chapters for the two of them to reconcile.

Mr. Webb, Make Your Move! Chapter 596
Shelby shoved him away. People who were used to being in charge did not like being held back, and it just so happened that Harper was a leader-type too. They were like magnets with the same pole, pushing each other away.She slipped on her oven mitts, grabbed the pasta from the microwave, and took it to the living room to eat.Harper was a master at playing his cards right.He did not think Shelby was avoiding his food or trying to draw a line between them. No, he figured she was just super hungry and could not wait.After scratching his chin, he opened the fridge, looked around, and grabbed a couple of eggs.Shelby did not bother watching what he was up to in the kitchen. She kept eating and scrolling through case files on her phone. However, soon, Harper added two perfectly fried eggs to her plate of pasta."Sprinkled with a bit of rose salt. Not bad, right?"She had not tasted it yet, but the eggs looked great with the whites cooked just right and the yolks still runny. They

Shelby paused for a moment but firmly got up from Harper's embrace.Harper knew better than to hold her too tight. The moment she squirmed, he let go.She moved to another couch and said calmly, "As you can see, I've been eating well every day and the baby's already five months along. It's healthy at every check-up. So, you don't need to tell me how to live my life."Harper watched her face.She was fresh from a bath, her face clean and glowing with a soft light in the glow of the floor lamp.He took a deep breath and smiled slightly. "Let me tell you a story. When God made a woman named Shelby, He poured in a whole tub of something called 'intelligence' all at once. "Then, when He was about to add emotional intelligence, He realized the container was already full. It was too bad as He couldn't add any."So, Shelby was born with no emotional intelligence. I'm not lecturing you. I'm just worried about you."Shelby's face was blank. "Thanks for your concern, but it's five months

Harper felt like he had stepped out and come back to a game of charades.Yosef nonchalantly passed the contract with Alsa over to Ophite.Ophite browsed through it quickly, raising his eyebrows in surprise. "This project's a big one, at least three years to finish. With this, Four Prosperity Group will be back on track in no time. "Think of Four Prosperity Group as a young plant—it's just starting to grow roots and shoots."Yosef's expression turned frosty, almost unreadable. "Four Prosperity Group has to do more than just grow. We need to flower and bear fruit."Then, they would wait for her to harvest....Stefan and Yaxley stepped out of the hospital together.The May night breeze in Starville was refreshing, yet the hospital buzzed with activity around the clock.They waited by the curb for their driver to pull up.Across the street, shops blinked with neon lights, painting them in a mix of colors. Between the two of them, one looked stern and proper while the other loo

Yosef's eyes fluttered open to a darkened room, the moon hidden behind heavy clouds. As he woke up, he began to feel his body again. He tried to touch his sore side but accidentally pulled on the IV in his hand.Ophite, who was sitting close by, noticed it first. "Yosef, you're awake at last."The others, lounging on the couch, got up and came over. Charvi, Harper, Yaxley, and Stefan were all there."How are you feeling? Need me to get the doctor?" Ophite asked.Yosef shook his head, his voice scratchy. "I'm okay.""You were nearly not okay," Ophite said, a bit upset. "You're not looking after yourself. Charvi told us you were coughing all the way from Marsberg, and you even flew back in economy. Why do you have to be so tough on yourself?"Yosef did not answer and just closed his eyes for a moment. He tried to sit up. Yaxley, standing by the bed, helped by raising the bed so that Yosef could lean back comfortably."Thanks," Yosef murmured."Don't mention it," Yaxley replied

The two stood close, one tall and one shorter. They made a perfect pair. They wore similar styles and were both dressed in blue. The woman had on a beret and a mask, the brim pulled down to show only her eyes.She turned to the man and said something, and he leaned in to listen. His hand naturally brushed her hair from under her coat, the black strands twirling around his pale fingers.She did not seem to mind his touch, as if it was the most natural thing.Yosef's mind raced back to the last holiday in Westwood, when he had walked hand in hand with her through the streets in the biting winter wind. He had fixed her scarf and gently tugged her hair free just as naturally.She had looked up at him, her smile making her eyes twinkle.A lump formed in Yosef's throat. He stepped forward, then stopped himself.He could not, he just could not.This was not the time.In no time at all, the group was on the plane, but Yosef did not go any further.Charvi hurried over and asked, "Mr. W

James paused. "She's Kronos' fiancée, the future head lady of the Rofey family.""Did she tell you that herself?""No...""Then why do you say she is?!"James, who was quite old, jumped at Yosef's loud voice. He was puzzled by his sudden anger. "Her secretary mentioned it, and she didn't correct him. Plus, she's heading to Parnova with Kronos right after our meal. Isn't that proof enough?"Yosef gripped his tablet so tightly his knuckles turned white, and his face suddenly went as cold and pale.James wanted to ask what was wrong. "You..."However, Yosef just stood up and stormed out. Something was clearly not right.James called after him, "Where are you headed?""Home.""Now? But you're not supposed to leave until tomorrow!"All James heard in reply was the door slamming shut. He was left wondering what was going on with Yosef. Was he mad? Panicked?It was like he was a husband who had lost his wife and was in a hurry to find her....Yosef stormed out of the hotel and

Zara had reserved a private room at the restaurant.James had barely sat down when the waiter started bringing out the food.Even though he had spoken highly of Zara's skills when he talked to Yosef yesterday, the company was still taken over by her. James felt he had to be a bit critical of her.James was a bit miffed when Zara ordered for him without asking what he wanted. He was ready to tell her off for being rude.However, when he saw the dishes the waiter brought out, they were all his favorites. They were exactly what he would order himself at that restaurant.Clearly, Zara had done her homework on his tastes and had everything set up just right. James found himself speechless.The waiter, in a neat shirt and vest, poured white wine into James' glass with a flourish. Zara gave a friendly gesture and a soft smile, looking way friendlier than she did at the church or the graveyard. "I heard you like to have a half glass of white wine before eating, Mr. James. I hope the wi

James was confused. "Played us how?"Yosef's lips, pale and dry, twitched into a slight smile. "I finally get why she had to yell at you in front of everyone at the church."Without thinking, James asked, "Why?""Because yelling at you in public gets people talking. She wanted everyone to know that Rofey Group and SAM were no longer friends."They were both as clever as old foxes, and something did not sit right with them. Rofey Group had always wanted to buy SAM, so why the sudden fight? When things did not add up, there was usually a secret. It was time to dig deeper.Yosef did some digging and found out that the woman from Rofey Group had been up to something sneaky. She made a secret deal with three big banks and was quietly buying up shares of a company called SAM. He thought that was her sneaky plan, so his company, Azure Cloud Group, jumped into the race to get SAM too.However, what he did not know was that she wanted him to find out. She wanted Azure Cloud Group to joi

The grand Marsberg Cathedral has stood for centuries. It was built in the fifth century, they said. However, it had been fixed up and rebuilt so many times since then. The one thing that had never changed was the faith that filled it.Yosef and James were taking a stroll inside the cathedral. It was May, and the air was warm. The gardens were full of tiny flowers and plants soaking up the sun, bursting with life.Next to all that brightness, James, who was quite old, and Yosef, who was still sick, seemed a bit faded.They were not close friends, but they had a special bond that did not care about their age difference.James gazed at the man next to him, someone he had not seen in years. He seemed even more distant now. "You're not quite the same... We last met three years ago, and you were happier then. Looks like you've been through a lot since, but some things don't change—like your love for wearing black."Yosef replied calmly, "No one stays the same forever.""So, you came
