The car arrived at Dunn residence and drove through the big iron gate. Jane got out of the car. “You can go back first, Alora. Madam Dunn and I are going to catch up on things.”Alora's beautiful eyes moved. Her gaze fell on Jane's lackluster face and chuckled. “No way. I can’t leave you with the Dunns alone. How am I going to explain it to Mr. Stewart?”Jane's throat tightened. “You…”“I’ll go in with you.” Whilst closing the car door, Alora walked calmly to Jane's side. She stretched out he
Those were the exact words of the virtuous and prestigious elderly man.When he was figuring out ways to obtain a new identity card for Jane after she made the request, Joseph went to meet the virtuous and prestigious elderly man. Joseph could still remember the indifference in the elderly man’s eyes when he said those words.… It was destined then that Jane would not live any longer. The elderly man’s words were not to be defied.The elderly man had made it very clear that the Stewarts cou
She stood up as she said that and lowered her head to stare at Alora who was sitting next to her. “What’s wrong with you, Alora?”Before she could scream, someone was suddenly standing behind her, covering her nose with a handkerchief. “Mm! Mm!” She seemed to have realized something. Before she passed out, she looked at the Dunns with a look of disappointment on her face.Before she fainted, she had one more thought… Fortunately, she had not stopped Alora from drinking her tea just now. If the
In the hospital, Old Master Stewart had not come out from the operation ward. The man standing by the door was feeling anxious.After his right eye twitched, the anxiousness in his heart was getting more and more intense.He turned his head to look at the door and asked the old master’s butler. “How did Grandpa faint?”“Old Master suddenly…” The butler kept repeating this. When he said that, the door was opened. A doctor came out from inside. Sean stopped the doctor in the white coat. “The person inside is my grandfather. How is he?”The doctor did not expect someone to stop him and ask questions. “Your grandfather is not…”“Our old master is the old chairman of Stewart Industries. You have to take good care of him.”Before the doctor could say a complete sentence, the butler who was standing at one side interrupted him.The doctor’s brain was working fast. He changed his words instantly. He said that Old Master Stewart’s condition was still unknown, so they needed to do more ch
Sean did not say a word more. He hung up and called Jane’s number next. No one answered the phone. He was frowning when he called the Dunn household. He could not get through to the Dunn’s landline. In the end, he could only call Joseph’s number.After a while, the call went through. “Mr. Stewart?”“Joseph, is Jane with you?” Sean did not want to waste time exchanging pleasantries with Joseph. The most important thing for him right now was Jane’s safety.“Jane?” Joseph asked in surprise. “Jane was here, but she just left.”Sean was looking pensive. “How long ago? With who?”“Just a few moments ago. Let me look at the time… Hmm, about ten minutes ago. Miss Smith was the one who was driving. They left together. Mr. Stewart, what’s wrong? D-Did anything happen to Jane?” Joseph stood up anxiously and asked Sean who was on the other end of the phone.After he heard that, Sean’s eyes darkened. He made a sound from the back of his throat and said courteously. “I’m sorry to bother you, M
The butler of the Old Stewart Manor had a position that was higher than the previous Mr. Summers. He was bent on staying with the old master. Naturally, he would follow every order of the old master and was the old master’s most trusted person. However, he did not know that the old master had this plan of pretending to be sick and kicking Jane out. At that moment, he was angry. He could guess that something was amiss.However, at this moment, he could not tell Sean what he was thinking.“Sir, the humble old me has been serving the old master my entire life. In the ordinary course of events, if the old master is pretending to be sick just to kidnap Mi… Madam, then I should know about it,” the old butler said earnestly.“Sir, I swear. The old master really isn’t doing anything to Miss Dunn by pretending to be sick.”Sean was looking at the old butler intensely. This old butler who served the old master for his whole life had watched Sean grow up. As for his understanding of the old m
“You devious woman! How dare you laugh? You murderer! You devious evil woman!”That voice was screaming with such rage. “If it hadn’t been for you, my Rosaline would not have died at such a young age! If it hadn’t been for you, Rosaline would not have gotten violated by those animals! It’s all your fault! It’s all your fault, you evil little b*tch!”Jane was tied to a chair that had a broken leg. She watched the old man yelling at her without saying a word.“Rosaline was your best friend. Rosaline thought of you as her best friend. What about you? What did you do? Huh?”The old man was shaking Jane, releasing his anger by screaming and humiliating her. His aged eyes were painted with hatred.Jane let the old man scream at her. However, when the old man said that Rosaline thought of her as her best friend, she could not stand it anymore.“Many years ago, I thought of Rosaline as my best friend too.” The old man glared at the woman on the chair angrily. She was laughing without a s
Mr. Summers’s face was dark. He looked at Jane. It would be difficult to take back the water he had poured out, let alone his words.When he saw the shock on Jane’s face, his expression became calm.Jane looked at the old man with shock on her face. She could not understand how a father could kill his own daughter. Even Joseph would not do this kind of immoral deeds.“How could you?” she yelled. Even if there was nothing but resentment between her and Rosaline, she could not help herself afte
