Love Strategy: CEO He is Really Scheming！

”Actually, during the time you were good to her, she fell in love with you in her heart too... fell in love with the you who gave her warmth... Having a love you can’t speak of, and still having to deny your own feelings—that’s what’s truly the hardest, the bitterest...”

Joshua Floyd looked into Jose Floyd’s eyes, which were unusually deep. ”Jose, as time goes by, sooner or later you’ll forget her. Jose, it’s not like you can’t live without her.”

Jose’s hand, lifting the drink, halted. His cold gaze swept toward Joshua. ”No matter how many years pass, I will never forget! That woman, Nicole Seys, I will never be able to forget her for the rest of my life!”

Joshua was silent for a moment, then deliberately shifted the topic. ”Jose, since you already know you’re not Olivia Summer’s biological son, and you also know Olivia killed the child you and Nicole were having, what are you planning to do now?”

”Joshua, I’m not planning on being your brother.” Jose’s voice was icy, so cold even his brows seemed to glint with frost. With one sentence he shut down the instructions Stuart Floyd and Celine Sutton had given Joshua.

Joshua froze, then flicked Jose a disdainful eye-roll. ”Perfect, I’m not planning on calling you brother either! If I call you brother, what does that make Nicole to me? My classmate becomes my sister‑in‑law... Go cool off somewhere far away from me!”

Jose rose to his feet, his face flushed, his steps a little unsteady as he headed toward the door, tossing the bottle in his hand aside.

Joshua watched his swaying, lonely, desolate back, pressed his lips together, and blurted out without thinking, ”Jose! If three years from now you still haven’t forgotten Nicole, if you’re still alone, then go find Nicole’s eldest sister‑in‑law...”

”Go find Ariel Morris?” Jose stopped walking. ”Find her for what?”

Joshua’s eyes flickered with hesitation. After more than ten seconds of silence, he answered in a low voice, ”Get her to hand over the last ’keepsake’ Nicole left behind to you. Of course, you’d better not let Arlo Seys find out. Arlo’s opinion of you is seriously bad. If it weren’t for you, Nicole wouldn’t have turned into a tombstone. But even the invincible Arlo has one fatal weakness, and that’s Ariel. As long as you can get Nicole’s ’keepsake’ from Ariel, even if Arlo wants to come after you, he won’t have a way to do it.”

”What keepsake? And why do I have to wait three years to get it?” Jose’s voice was frigid.

”Nicole just died; would the Seys Family casually hand her possessions to some man like you? Why three years... because if you go ask for the keepsake after three years, it proves you still love Nicole, that what you feel for her is real love that hasn’t changed at all with the passage of time. Ariel might be willing to help you and give you the ’keepsake’. If you go ask for it now, forget about them giving it to you—the Seys Family not stabbing you to death would already be merciful!” Joshua’s brows and eyes shifted slightly as he spoke to the man who didn’t so much as turn around.

Jose lifted his leg and walked off, showing no real interest. He let out a cold laugh, his eyes completely devoid of warmth.

She’s already dead—what would he do with her keepsake three years from now? It would only make him look at it every day and drown in regret and self‑reproach!

Nicole Seys can’t ever come back—

In this world, there really is no Nicole anymore...

The woman he loves has become a cold, unfeeling grave...

”In this world, aside from Ariel Morris, no one can help you get her keepsake! Winning over Ariel is a hundred times easier than going up against Arlo! As long as you can get Ariel to nod, you’ll get the thing! It’s Nicole’s most important ’keepsake’!” Joshua shouted hoarsely at Jose’s retreating back.

Jose didn’t spare Joshua so much as a glance, and he didn’t take Joshua’s words to heart either, leaving with a face full of cold pride and indifference.

Joshua watched Jose’s departing figure, and when his gaze fell back on the photo on the tombstone, his eyes turned bottomless...
