Serena was taken aback.She had thought these people were causing trouble for Robin, but she hadn't expected him to say such words."In Havenbrook, no one would dare to openly come after me like this.So these people must be here for you. They want to kill you."Due to the gunshots, the police had arrived, but those men got into their car, chasing them.Robin checked the rearview mirror, saying, "They are from Hustleburg, Serena. Sit tight."With that, he accelerated the car. Serena frowned, using her uninjured hand to grip the handle. "Thank you."If it was people from Hustleburg, it might have something to do with Mira.Recently, Mira was the person she offended the most."No problem. It seems you can't go back to the hotel. I assume there are people waiting for you there as well. I hope the person you called is clever enough to escape. Let me take you to my place. My people will handle the tail."Serena nodded.The sounds of wind and gunfire surrounded them. To kill her, someone wa
Matthew walked downstairs, where Nathan was already waiting respectfully."Is the news confirmed?" he asked coldly.Nathan nod solemnly and continued, "Boss, Mr. Don is indeed still alive. We have found him, but his condition is not good. He has a serious head injury, and it's possible..."Nathan didn't finish his sentence, but Matthew already understood.A head injury, especially a severe one, could lead to significant cognitive impairment.Matthew's aura changed, and his eyes narrowed."Remove the threads that Ethan left. Harriet can't stand those women entangling with Ethan. Tell Harriet that as long as she can find evidence of Ethan's crimes, Ethan will become a vegetable for the rest of his life, with only her by his side."When a woman's love reaches its extreme, it transforms into profound hatred capable of destroying everything.Nathan was about to carry out the instructions when Jo hurriedly approached."Boss, Madam has called me; she encountered an attack in Havenbrook, and
Robin's mood was quite pleasant.Serena called his name so casually; could it be that after this incident, they had become true friends?The doctor arrived promptly, removed the bullet from Ida's leg, and carefully dressed the wound.Ida's gaze remained fixed on Robin.Despite his genteel appearance, she could sense that he was a very dangerous person. She was highly sensitive to dark auras."Madam, who is he?" She asked cautiously.Boss had assigned her to protect Madam."He's my friend," Serena replied calmly, relieved to see the doctor finish the treatment."Madam, this is a man's residence after all. We should leave and go to another hotel," Ida suggested.Her wariness of Robin was high, akin to a fierce cat protecting its food.However, as soon as she spoke, thunder roared outside, and heavy rain began to fall."Stay here tonight. I've arranged rooms for you. Neil, take this young lady to rest," Robin said, appearing by their side.Neil, who was standing nearby, quickly approache
The pilot on the helicopter was sweating profusely."Boss, this is the Franklin's territory. Robin took over as the new head a few years ago. He's ruthless and has quickly subdued all the gangs in Havenbrook. If we make enemies tonight, we might not get away."They had come hastily and didn't bring many people with them.They had tracked Serena's phone and knew she was here, but they hadn't expected it to be the territory of the new head of the Franklin Family.Nathan glanced at the message on his phone and quickly spoke, "Boss, Madam and Ida are both fine. They were rescued by the new head of the Franklin Family. He is an old friend of Madam..."As Nathan said this, he noticed Matthew's face darkening.Since when did the head of the Franklin Family know Serena? What had this woman hidden?At the same time, Ida received a call from Jo and learned that the people in the helicopter were Matthew and his group.She hurriedly went upstairs to find Neil."My Boss is here. We won't be stayin
Serena pursed her lips, blinked her slightly bitter eyes, and weariness etched deeper on her face.Matthew only then noticed her hands wrapped in bandages, and his aura became even more intimidating."What happened to your hand?"Ida, furious, interjected, "Boss, that Gloria spilled coffee on Madam's hand, and Madam's hand blistered on the spot."Matthew was even more infuriated.He even laughed in anger. "Your usual aura against others, and now, one Gloria has made you end up like this?!"Although he mocked her verbally, he still took her hand and examined it carefully when she handed it over.Serena pulled her hand back, saying, "It's just a small injury."Ida was even more displeased. "Where is this a small injury? What's worse is that after Gloria spilled coffee, she deliberately wiped away the blisters, intending to leave a scar on Madam's hand."Matthew's eyes turned crimson, and as the head of the Franklin Family, seeing his wife treated this way, he was not only angry but also
This night was destined to be restless.On the other side of Hustleburg, people were tossing and turning, and Gabriel had been following the updates, eager to know if those people had succeeded.However, upon learning that Matthew had rushed to Havenbrook overnight, he knew trouble was brewing.Trying to pull back was already too late; the dispatched individuals were wiped out, not a single one returned.Gabriel was dumbfounded, sitting in a daze on the sofa.These were skilled assassins nurtured by the White Family, and losing ten of them was a significant blow.He had underestimated the influence of Havenbrook's dark forces.Fearing the consequences, the living room door was suddenly kicked open, and Antony walked in."Bang!"A cup was thrown at Gabriel, and the shards cut his cheek."Foolish! Utterly foolish! If Matthew finds out you sent people to chase after his wife, do you think he'll spare our White Family? Matthew has concealed himself in Hustleburg for so many years; his met
Serena had a sound sleep, contrary to her expectations.She thought she wouldn't be able to sleep, but as soon as her head touched the pillow, she entered a realm of dreams. When she woke up, it was already ten in the morning.Ida had been anxiously waiting outside. The Boss had already left, but Madam was still sleeping, and she wondered how long these two would keep up their silent protest.Hearing movement inside, she excitedly knocked on the door, "Madam, are you awake? We should leave for Hustleburg. Maybe we can catch up with the Boss."Serena responded from inside. After a slow morning routine, she opened the door.Ida, in a state of anxiety, urged, "Let's leave now; perhaps we can still catch up with the Boss."Serena furrowed her brows and lowered Ida's hand. "Ida."The way she called her was very solemn, causing Ida to instantly adopt a serious expression. "Madam, what are your orders?""Did Matthew instruct you to be my bodyguard, or is he also using you to monitor my life?
Infinity Realm headquarters.Gloria's cheek bore the mark of a slap. Returning early, Greg had already guessed that her relationship with Serena had soured and couldn't help but hit her.Feeling somewhat indignant, she dismissed it as insignificant. After all, she was just a woman about to become a secondary wife—why bother caring?As she pondered this, Ella walked in.Ella approached her directly, placing a transfer order on her desk. "This is a direct order from the Boss. You're no longer part of the Legal Department. Head to the administrative department."administrative department?Gloria thought she misheard. A high-achieving graduate from a prestigious school like her was being sent to the administrative department?"Is there some mistake?"Ella sneered, "Whether there's a mistake, you know in your heart. During this business trip with Serena, company matters weren't handled, yet you returned early.""That's
With regards to their wedding, Serena and Matthew naturally had no problem with it, after all, Hayden was kind of what they had watched grow up.With the approval of the two, Hayden became very busy during this period of time, he asked Leona's opinion, and it turned out that the other party was not willing to go abroad to hold the wedding, so the place for the wedding turned out to be a church in Hustleburg.Leona took a leave from the research lab, saying that she wanted to rest for a few days, and as a bride, she naturally couldn't go to the wedding with a tired face.It was a big deal for a new businessman to marry the daughter of the Harrington family, and Hustleburg was instantly buzzing with excitement.This wedding was all designed by Hayden alone, not wanting anyone to get involved, from the process to the flowers needed for the ceremony, all of which were handpicked by himself.The decisive man personally do these things, always give people a kind of unreal feeling.The word
He monkeyed around and started fumbling with the buttons of Leona's dress.Leona frowned and held his hand, she wasn't interested in being right here."Hayden, go back and talk."Yet the man's voice came in her ear, inexplicably aggravated, "Go back?Going back would take another half hour."Leona couldn't hold back her laughter any longer and let out a "pfft".Seeing her in a good mood made Hayden bold, easing his seat down and catching her lips in a kiss.It was only when dealing with her that Hayden would act so much like a brat.Leona couldn't argue with him and could only sigh.It was all over, exactly twelve o'clock.Hayden was a little unfulfilled, but knew that he couldn't go on.Leona was too tired to say anything and just leaned back in the seat, half-closing her eyes.Hayden drove the car home, and when he got outside the apartment, instead of waking her up, he bent over and picked her up, heading upstairs.Leona did seem to have it a lot easier since the contract was drawn
Hearing Matthew say that made Serena feel slightly better.She actually had no intention of interfering with her daughter's choice, but as a mother, where was the reason not to love her daughter.She and Matthew had only been in the hospital room for half an hour before she was blown away by Nina, who said she didn't want to be force-fed dog food to eat on top of her allergies.Serena felt innocent, and before she left Matthew gently chided someone in the bed, "Next time be polite to your sister-in-law."Nina was so angry that she called Tara directly to complain, and there was always a gentle voice over there, instructing her not to get too emotional.Nina stayed here for a day, the door of the hospital room was quietly opened, and the tightly wrapped man revealed a pair of eyes, even alertly pulling the curtains closed.The lewd figure, needless to say, must be Rodney.Sure enough, Rodney took off his hat and looked at her red and swollen face painfully, "Did you check the allergens
Did she think that just because she knew Leona, she was really on the same starting line as Leona?If Leona moved out the Harrington family behind her, even a hundred Delia couldn't move a finger! Otis has figured out a lot of things after walking around in circles this time.Leona this time by his design, will be tricked, but also on the face of he is Hayden's friend, only did not do too much, if let Infinity Realm's Boss and Mrs. Boss know that their daughter outside the aggrieved, I am afraid that the consequences are more serious than now.Delia is a graduate of a prestigious university, more or less a little bit of arrogance, now hearing Otis say so, she stared wide-eyed, ''Isn't she, Leona, just a little bit better than me in terms of family history?What's the big deal? What are you so proud of, if I had that good family background, Hayden would like me too! She's just lucky."Serena had just passed by the ward door when she heard this.She paused in her steps and looked to Mat
Hayden pressed the answer button and only heard a few words from there before he froze in place.Otis had been knocked right into the resuscitation room by that bottle, saying that a splinter had lodged in his scalp and he needed surgery ASAP.His head buzzed with a few vague responses and he hung up.He pulled Leona into the car, "Leona , I'll take you back first."Leona sat in the passenger seat, quietly looking out and not talking to him.After arriving at the apartment, Hayden sent her into the door, as he turned around , Leona suddenly pulled his hand, "Hayden, remember what I told you before, if this friendship comes to a point where you should let go, don't hesitate."Hayden took a step forward, his body frozen in place.He turned and hugged her, "I actually believed you all along and didn't doubt the truth in your words, so it's hard for me because in that moment, I lost my best friend."Parting comes so suddenly in the adult world.Yes, while standing in the box, he took Leon
It was the first time Leona had ever been so angry, angry at the man's behavior, angry that he was Hayden's friend.She still had half the bottle cupped in her hand and wanted to just poke the glass slag into him, but she couldn't be so impulsive.She gave Otis, who was still struggling, a cold look and clasped her hands slightly as she held the door to the compartment open and waited for the police to arrive.The police came quickly, and following them was Hayden.Hayden hadn't expected this to be the case in the box, and he froze for a moment, before asking, "Leona, what's wrong?"Leona was just about to speak when Otis, who had been bored for a long time, jumped the gun, "Sister Leona, you don't have to humiliate us in this way if you don't like Delia and I. I'll pay Hayden back the five million dollars, I didn't mean to drag him down."Leona had grown up in the Harrington household, and her friends had all sat upright, and none of them had ever been so calmly upside down as Otis.
When a man eats, his movements are slow and unhurried, it's really eye-pleasing to look at.Tim, with this kind of big personality, felt a little embarrassed."Uncle, this is your first time in Hustleburg, right, there are other places in Hustleburg that are very pretty."As soon as he finished his words, an assistant-looking person ran not far away and attached himself to the man's ear and said something.The man got up and straightened his sleeve, "Thanks for the hospitality, if we meet again, I'll buy you guys."Leona and Godfery hadn't spoken since the beginning, but he knew exactly how many people were around.Tim stood up in a hurry and held one of his hands, "Let me help you over."For his attentiveness, the assistants standing by the side all laughed, "Although Mr. can't see with his eyes, his heart is penetrating, he's been here before around here, and he remembers all the roads."Tim embarrassedly put down his hand and touched his head, "This way, then uncle goodbye."Watchi
This was probably the first time Leona had offered to say yes to taking him out, and Hayden had been waiting for this opportunity for far too long.His heart instantly caught fire and he nodded solemnly.He rushed off to the place he'd agreed to go with Otis, a park that used to be a favorite haunt of the two in high school.Back then the park still had a fountain and was surrounded by young couples out on dates from school.He had just gotten there when he saw Otis sitting on the bench they used to sit on with a case of beer at his feet.Hayden walked over and sat down beside him, "What brings you here all of a sudden?"Otis pointed to his feet and smiled faintly, "You should have gone to a lot of trouble to fish me out this time, I don't know how to thank you.""Otis, you're my friend.""Hayden, there's a lot I want to say to you."Otis lowered his eyes and opened a can of beer, "Sit down."Hayden sat down beside him and Otis started with some funny stuff that happened in high schoo
Hayden didn't know how to respond to his best friend's questioning.They went straight to the hospital and when the doctor examined them, he talked about what happened to Delia in the past few days.Otis held Delia's hand and started crying while Delia's eyes kept resting on Hayden's.Hayden's brain hurt, both of the people here were his best friends at one time, but this time it seemed like he was on the verge of losing them.Back in high school, he and Otis used to sit on the playground from time to time drinking beer and coke and talking about their dreams at that age, and Otis would always tease him with Leona.Neither had realized that the adult world would be filled with so much hopelessness, despair.Otis cried for a while and fed Delia water.Delia had no strength in her body and could only take a few slow sips right from his hand.Otis' eyes instantly turned red, when had he ever seen Delia like this.Delia had always followed them around like a tomboy, we all played soccer t
