“Bill, I’m back,” said Carrie.
Bill nodded, and as he expected, the people there had already told him what was happening.
“Thank you,” said Bill.
Laughing, Carrie came up behind Bill and rubbed his shoulder.
Bill dodged and said indifferently, “You’ve been tired all day. Go back and have a rest!”
A trace of disappointment flashed across Carrie’s face.
She walked over and sat opposite, smiling softly, “After this, Mad Dog probably already knows Louis is dead and might not dare to confront us again. Lucas is already very excellent. Why don’t you start giving power to him?”
Bill frowned slightly and looked at her, “You’ve never been optimistic about him. Why did you suddenly say so?”
“I used to think he was half–hearted, a professor and a researcher. Now that he is mature, I naturally believe your judgment,” said Carrie.
Bill nodded, “However, the timing isn’t quite right yet. The strength of the Simpson family lies in maintaining equilibrium. Granting him power would only make him a target for others.”
Carrie also sighed, “If he could get married now, it would be the perfect reason for him to take over.”
Bill murmured without speaking.
He didn’t seem to want to discuss it with her.
He had drawn a circle of his people, and she was not in it.
Carrie gave him a deep look.
Suddenly, she rose, walked over, and wrapped her arm around Bill. “We’ve been together for so many years. 1 changed my name and took your surname. Yet you seem to care more about your adopted son than me. Do your know how that makes me feel?”

DOO.
Bill frowned, trying to pull her down from his body.
But Carrie refused to let go. After so many years of gentle endurance, it seemed she just wanted to indulge this
time.
“Bill, my sister is gone. Why didn’t you even look at me when I was right by your side?” Carrie choked with grievances. All her persistence and forbearance suddenly burst out at this moment. She couldn’t hide her affection for him..
“Get away!” Bill was suddenly furious and threw her away from himself.
He looked indifferently at the woman who fell to the ground before him without pity.
She unexpectedly mentioned the person Bill had kept hidden in his heart, and her actions instantly inflamed his
anger.
“I keep you here because I want to save your life. If you don’t behave yourself, get out of here!” growled Bill.
Carrie’s eyes immediately welled up with tears. Despite her embarrassment, she stood up and spoke with emotion, “Let me go. For all these years, I’ve given you everything, fought for you, and even risked my life for you. But now, you’re asking me to leave? You and my sister knew each other for just a year, and she’s gone. I, however, have been with you for over ten years. Do you have any feelings for me at all?”
Bill’s demeanor was regal and aloof, his voice devoid of warmth. “No, if it weren’t for your sister, I wouldn’t have spared you a glance, even if you lay dead outside. Don’t flatter yourself. Countless others fight for me. You’re here because you desire more, and I’ve already given you plenty. Drop the rest of your expectations!”
When Bill’s demeanor turned ruthless, he did not utter a single word of kindness.
He went through countless hardships and even struggled on the brink of death before ultimately succeeding in paving the way for the Simpson family.
He treated Carrie as if she were one of his subordinates.
He trusted her, yet he was cautious of her as well.
There was no such thing as love for his subordinate.
Carrie had surpassed many people, from an unknown person to now.

Otherwise, she couldn’t keep her power and status.
She got what she deserved, and Bill duly rewarded her.
Although she lived in the house, Bill never recognized her position as his wife.
Some individuals misunderstand their relationship, yet he prefers not to clarify it.
As long as Carrie knew of her position, he didn’t consider what she would do with it.
But at this moment, it seemed like she couldn’t put herself in the proper place.
to
Bill’s face darkened, and his mere presence filled the air with a tense chill. “If you feel this is unfair, you’re free leave whenever you want. Otherwise, I’ll arrange a marriage for you to keep your mind from wandering off into foolish fantasies!”
Carrie’s expression altered, her emotions suddenly tightening. She let out a frantic cry, “How could you treat me like this? What’s so special about her? She never cared for you. You forced her into your life. How can you still pine for her now that she’s gone? How deeply did you believe she loved you that you’d rather adopt someone else’s child than have one with another woman? It’s not even clear if the child she bore was yours…”
As soon as Carrie spoke out, Bill slapped her.
Slap!
It was easy to imagine how much strength a man would use when angry.
Carrie felt her scalp tingling and dizzy for a moment. Her cheeks were hot and slightly swollen, and she could even taste the blood.
She hadn’t had time to be sad yet.
Bill approached, pulled her hair heavily, and tilted her head back. His eyes were sharp and dark, staring at her, filled with warnings, “I’m warning you. If you dare to utter another word about her, I will let you go to the snake pit and feed the snakes. I never said that I wouldn’t deal with women!”
In his eyes, female subordinates were no different from men.
Even female subordinates should be more astute.

Carrie had reached this position because she was no pushover to be bullied by anyone.
Bill knew exactly what she was like in the Simpson family.
When Carrie looked at him, his extreme indifference made her heart sink.
Her body trembled violently..
She instantly realized that Bill was really angry.
The man she couldn’t stop thinking about treated human lives like dirt and had prominent power.
He was in charge of the Simpson fantily, and no one dared to mess with the Simpson family.
And Carrie had made a mistake. She overestimated her worth and underestimated Bill’s ruthlessness.
He had never done anything to her, but it didn’t mean that he would give in or take pity on her.
She thought that everything was under her control, but Bill had never been the kind of person willing to play by
her rules.
He wouldn’t allow anyone to touch his bottom line.
His indifferent eyes made people feel terrified.
The next second, he let go of her flatly and said disdainfully, “Get out of here. You are not allowed to go upstairs without my permission!”
This was Bill.
He allowed Carrie to move in, but she could only stay in the living room and her bedroom on the first floor.
She didn’t even have the qualification to enter other places.
Carrie’s face turned ashen out of embarrassment.
Her chest heaved violently, not knowing whether it was fear or anger.
She looked at him angrily and left the study in a hurry.

She was proud when she came, but embarrassed when she left.
