"Neil, spread the word that the Winters family is running a private mine here and someone from the top will look into it."Neil nodded, mining these resources privately was a major offense, and the Winters Family was sure to lose a layer of skin this time.The Winters family didn't show up for their appointment and Robin, with nothing better to do, immediately had someone check out Serena's location."Where did they go?"Neil looked at him, "There's a temple fair on the mountain tonight, so I guess they're watching the action."Robin was uncomfortable, but remembering the Temple Fair, her face softened, "We'll go too.This county is most famous for the Temple Fair, the temple is in the mountains, held every year is very grand, many foreign tourists will also come over, this time they happened to run into.Matthew didn't know until he asked around, and the thought of Serena being in a bad mood made him drive the car up the hill."I don't want to go."Serena frowned, thinking that Mary
Why would he touch a woman for sale rather than her, did she disgust him that much?"Jack, we've known each other for so many years, why do we have to go this far, we're getting engaged next week, do you have to embarrass me so much?"There was a hint of begging in her tone, but her eyes were fixed indignantly on the girl.The girl shivered at her gaze and hid behind Jack, "Miss Sophie, I'm not dirty, my first time is still ......"She said with trembling lips, her tone full of pity.Her eyes were so much like Serena's, and at that moment, with such a stash of tears, it made Jack's heart go halfway soft.He slapped Sophie's hand away and pulled the girl into the room above the Ignite Spirits Bar.The rooms here are reserved for overnight guests and contain almost everything."Jack!!!"Sophie screamed like crazy, her voice cracking a little, but Jack didn't look back.Sophie ran after him, her face white with fear."Boo!"The door to the room in front of her slammed shut, and Sophie po
She said weakly and reached out to test his forehead.Scorching hot, probably burned."Serena, go ahead, there's a hot spring house from here, just soak in the warm water and go ahead, don't go ashore, you'll catch cold, there'll be someone there to save you.""You don't care about me, you hate the Harringtons and me ......"Serena said nothing and literally stood up.Matthew saw her back and a stabbing pain came from his heart, his eyes went black and he immediately fainted.She really didn't want to take him with her ......Serena stood up, and just as she stepped onto the shore, she felt the cold stinging her bones on all sides, and she hastily retreated back into this dug-out pit.If they had stayed here and waited for someone to rescue them, Matthew would have been in danger.He was too burned out and disoriented to lose a moment now, but Matthew would be worse off if he went ashore.Just follow the warm water, he said.She bent down and pulled the man out, gritting her teeth as
The door was pushed open and Robin, carrying a bowl of congee, saw him and frowned."Wake up."Without choking him, Matthew reached out and took Serena's hand.Robin approached and set the porridge aside, "Drink.""I'm afraid you've poisoned it."Matthew's voice was light, angry Robin nose, "To poison last night, you also do not think about last night you have how much of a mess, if not afraid to get you Serena will be sad, I would have thrown you out to freeze for a night, a great man actually let a woman to save you, shame on you!"Matthew caught the gist of his words, was it Serena who saved him?He lowered his eyes; he'd seen Serena get up before he fainted, thought she was going to leave him behind, and in a moment of rage had simply fainted.He thought Robin had saved him and considered himself lucky."Serena dragged you five or six miles last night, and the doctor said her willpower was so gone that she wouldn't wake up for days after such a break."Matthew's heart rolled in hi
After she went back to her room, she called Melody, "Auntie, did Jack not come back, Serena called him last night, I guess he went back to the county to look for Serena, I'm sorry I didn't stop him."Melody heard this and threw the cup in her hand on the floor in anger.Sophie heard the commotion, the corner of her mouth turned up, "Auntie, don't be angry, this matter is Serena's initiative, if she didn't call Jack, Jack is probably still in Hustleburg, I heard that it snowed a lot last night and the mountains were closed outside, so it's estimated that Jack is still on the road, if the Carpenter Family sends someone, they can still bring someone back."Melody hated her guts, when the hell is this Serena going to leave Jack alone!She was so angry that she lifted her foot and started to walk out the door, but Simon stopped her, "Where are you going, your dad has you under constant surveillance and the last time you did something you just put it to rest, it's probably best not to go ou
"Or you can just wait here for us, and Granny and I will be back this afternoon."They're just going to burn some paper, and they'll be back after that, they won't be in the country much longer.Matthew still didn't say anything and looked like he was following them.Serena sighed and went to the train station and got on a bus to the countryside.She hadn't been back there for years, and now she saw the buses going to the countryside with some affection.Mary also calmed down and stared out of the window in a daze.Matthew sat next to Serena, saw her looking down in deep thought, reached out and took her hand in his.Serena frowned, she could feel that the atmosphere between her and Matthew was different after that.But it's hard to say exactly what's different.The car came to a stop on the mountain path, she helped Mary out of the car and the two of them walked towards the mountainside.Matthew hadn't been to a place like this before, probably because he was in a good mood, and at t
Robin once got into a fight and was hospitalized for a month because someone said something bad about Serena, so her grudge against Serena runs deeper.What makes this woman the best when she doesn't know anything?Robin in high school is the prince charming of many girls, girls in those days probably like that kind of bad boy, they call it personality, and the last thing they see is Serena's kind of good student pretending to be a good student, but Robin falls in love with that kind of good student.Matthew didn't answer, this woman knew Serena?"If you're her boyfriend, I really have to congratulate her for finding another current one, she told me at first that she had a crush on a boy, I think it was you, was it her initiative to pursue you between you two?"Matthew lowered his eyes, his forehead impatient.Ruby saw that he didn't say anything and thought that he believed what she said, "When she told me that she had a crush on someone, I knew that she could definitely do it becaus
She doesn't know if it was Ruby's illusion, but she always felt that the man had already seen through all her plans and just didn't stop her.She was a little scared for no reason, but it occurred to her that if the man had seen through her, he shouldn't be so calm.Matthew held out his hand and lowered his eyes slightly, his long lashes casting thick shadows.Looking at him up close, Ruby felt her heart beat even faster, this man was so perfect, one of the most handsome she had ever seen, she would be willing to sleep for nothing.She looked down, collected the color in her eyes, and inserted the syringe.Matthew's hand, hidden under the covers, had been quietly calling Serena, and about the time the other side should have picked up, the corners of his mouth tightened and he hung up decisively.He took out his cell phone, turned it off, and threw it out the window.Ruby was confused by his behavior, what was the point of throwing the phone for no good reason?Serena received a call f
Matthew buttoned up his cuffs and turned around to see her looking at him.He laughed and sat down on the edge of the bed and stroked her head, "Sherry just told me about moderation, so it's not okay to think about it."Serena skimmed her eyes, full of indifference."Serena shouldn't be that kind of irresponsible woman, when you force someone, you have to be responsible, the divorce, forget it, don't you think?"Serena opened her mouth, unable to spit out a word.But the look on her face had expressed her thoughts; she wanted a divorce.Matthew, however, deliberately ignored it, and came over to kiss her on the cheek, "Not saying anything that's a tacit acceptance, take care of your body during this period of time, don't go out for a while if your body isn't well."It was house arrest in disguise, and he was the only one who could say it with such gentleness.Serena lowered her eyes, not wanting to pay attention.The corners of Matthew's mouth curved and he had food brought up while h
Serena, however, had a relaxed brow, and seemed quite happy to see his displeasure."Isn't it? I've given birth and you're still obsessed with my body, has it ever occurred to you that where you've left your mark, there was once another man who left his mark, who would have been my first man, and perhaps I still have him in my bones.""BOOM!!!"The bowl was dropped on the floor by Matthew and the porridge spilled all over the floor.His eyes were scarlet and unblinking as he stared at her, "So that man was Maxwell?"Serena was intent on being angry with him so she was a little tongue tied, "Yes, it was him, you are twins right? He took me while you went to save your true love, I don't think you want to know what we actually did the night he took me."No sooner had she finished her sentence than Matthew was already striding over, scooping her up and pressing her violently onto the bed.Serena's face taunted, not compromising in any way.Matthew's eyes were scarlet as he held the back o
She had her dagger ready and had probably wanted to do this for a long time.The sound of a knife in flesh and bone filled the compartment and Serena let go of her hand in a hurry and took a few steps back.Matthew dropped his eyes and looked at the dagger that had pierced his entire palm.She had said not long ago that if he died because of her, she would never live alone.But in the blink of an eye, she was the one who wanted him dead.When will some words of truth come out of her mouth?He suddenly felt the tip of his nose go sour, and not caring if the dagger would hurt the blood vessels in his palm, he pulled it out directly and brutally.His palms bled profusely, dripping and pooling on the seat.Serena's face had gone white, she forced herself not to look at the scene and leaned back.Matthew saw her like this, the corner of his mouth slightly hooked, opened the car window and threw the dagger out.The cold wind from outside poured in all at once, blowing painfully across his f
The black car bumped along for eight or nine hours before entering Havenbrook territory.The car stopped at five a.m. The winter sky lit up early, and she covered the scarf around her neck as she hurried down the street.She was afraid to go to a regular hotel, the kind of registered hotels that required identification, and the police could find out her whereabouts at any time.She can't go anywhere that requires identification.Serena took a long turn down the street, her head covered by a large hat that showed only her eyes.Tired of walking, she crouched to the side and cradled her hat in her arms, only to have several hundred dollar bills immediately placed in her hat.She looked up and saw a boy standing in front of her.Probably about six years old, with a sweet white face and eyes full of cunning.When he saw Serena looking up, he suddenly blushed and covered his mouth to cough.Serena frowned and handed him back a few hundred dollar bills.Looking at the man's clothes, he shou
It was exactly the same face as Matthew's, with a slight sneer.But their temperaments are diametrically opposed; he is violent and impulsive, while Matthew is noble and solitary.Serena took a step back almost reflexively, her hands hanging at her sides, slowly clenching.She even turned in an attempt to escape.But a man's embrace followed, "I told you you didn't want to see my face."Serena was shaking all over, more than not wanting to see him, she wanted to grab him and spend him.What's going on? Are they twins?"Serena, that's what I'm going to call you for now, get some rest and I'll come back for you when I find out the truth about what happened back then, okay?"Serena staggered away from him as if he was some kind of virus and kept backing away.She was afraid of him, and the fear was in her bones.The man lowered his eyes and pulled her violently into his arms.Serena's face had gone white and she didn't say a word, her body crumpled up tight."Does my face frighten you?"
The fire began to spread around her and she choked on her tears.She moved her wrists, but they were bound tightly.The fire grew fiercer and fiercer, and there was the sound of gunfire from outside, dense at first and then fading to a sparse sound that seemed to be the end of the battle.The fire here began to come at her in a frenzy, and she could even feel the rolling heat coming from her back.Serena's eyes became more and more disoriented and she finally fainted.The moment Matthew turned to leave, she suddenly wasn't afraid of death at all; even if she was being burned inch by inch by the fire here, it didn't seem like anything to be afraid of.It would be better to burn the hope in her heart to ashes all at once.In her stupor, she had a very long dream about a snowy night when she was taken into an alley by a strange man who was desperately sucking her blood to tear the flesh from her neck.In her hand was a warm cup of milk that she had bought from a street vendor for only th
Serena is like a fish on a knife edge, ready to be slaughtered.Vincent didn't know what he had given her, and in the blink of an eye she fainted.Vincent wanted to bend over and carry Serena away, but the look from the side of the room was too dark and hot, so he could only cough softly, "Master, why don't you do it?"The man gave him a look and bent down to pick Serena up, going straight to the lower level of the estate and putting the person in the car.He planted a kiss on her lips and looked at Vincent and said weakly, "I want her alive."Vincent shuddered in his heart and stood up quickly, "Don't worry Master, even if Matthew doesn't save Madam, Madam won't be in any danger.""Uh-huh."The man turned and walked back into the mansion.Vincent breathed a sigh of relief, a little puzzled that his master would treat Serena like that.He'd never seen the other man kiss a woman three times before.On the other side, Nathan and Sherry waited in the building, their brows furrowed with c
Serena had no doubt that the man was telling the truth, she could even feel his sharp teeth grinding at the back of her neck.She raised her hand and knocked his mask right off.A flash of surprise crossed the man's eyes, which turned to overwhelming anger.Serena didn't even get a chance to see what he looked like before she was pinned to the seat with her hands cuffed behind her back."You don't want to live?"His voice was grim, and the force of his restraints on her hadn't lessened at all, and she felt like her hands were about to break.She pursed her lips, her tone mocking, "Since I'm going to die sooner or later, let's see what's wrong with you before I die? Otherwise, when I get to the afterlife, I won't even know what the person who hurt me looks like, how can I find you for revenge in my next life?"Not knowing which words had pleased him, he loosened his grip a little and slipped the mask into her hand."Put it back on."Serena's eyes flashed, thinking she could take the op
She lifted the covers and went to the window to look out, there were lights downstairs and it looked like the man was still in the mansion.Within moments she saw him walking out the door with Nathan beside him.Serena stood at the window, listening to the car's engine, her eyes devoid of emotion.It wasn't until the car was gone that she pursed her lips for a second and went back to bed to rest.She thought she would not be able to sleep, but the truth was that she slept as soon as she touched the bed and slept through the next morning.She didn't ask the servant where Matthew had gone; it didn't take much guessing to realize that he must be out of the country and on his way to rescue a woman.She finished her breakfast quietly and took out a few law books to read.As she read the book, she was so focused that she almost immediately forgot all about Matthew.Looking up at the sky outside, she noticed that it was almost dark.She put the book down deliberately, her mind still thinking
