A pair of eyes looked at them, from fury to exasperation to envy… They belonged to Michael Luther.He was standing right at the staircase.The moment he saw Sean Stewart, he had run down in a hurry. He wanted to stop all of it, but from the second the light of the living returned to that woman’s eyes, he just could not bring himself to step forward.Before that, no matter what he did, whether he flirted with her, cared for her, or even kissed her, that woman simply did not react.He had personally seen that woman, dead and still as ditchwater, ‘come to life’ as soon as Sean Stewart appeared before her.He could not accept it!He could not accept the fact that he was just a bystander!When the woman started throwing things at Stewart as though she was possessed, though, Michael thought to himself that if he ran over to her now, he would not be helping her. Instead, he would just be getting in the way of her venting the past three years’ worth of pent-up emotions.Her agitation l
Michael’s eyes turned cold. “I’m dead meat? Why do you say so?“Because I touched something you wanted?“Hahahaha… I knew it, you haven’t changed at all. It’s been so many years, but you’re still as stubborn and hard-headed and selfish as ever!”Every word he said was filled with an endless cold. The man he was looking at had a face so similar to his, with eyes of the same shape, long, narrow and cold. Both of them had beautifully-defined brows and pupils as dark as the night. Both of them… l
Ray rushed forth and subtly placed his hand around his friend’s arm, propping the latter up.After that, he abruptly raised his head, his pretty eyes shooting Michael an icy glare.“Looks like we fell right into your trap, Mt. Luther. Well done. I consider this a lesson learned.”Psychological attacks could not be blocked or defended against. His arrow had struck Sean right in the heart!If this was any other time, Sean would definitely be too strong-willed to fall after Michael’s clearly pr
The woman was pushed aside by Michael. Feeling slightly bewildered, she looked at everything unfolding in front of her eyes, not knowing what to do. She did not know why both men had suddenly started brawling with each other.Both had outstanding fist-fighting techniques and were no easy opponents.Ray's face turned dark. He was about to go up and stop them, but Sean skillfully pushed him aside.Ray was no match for Sean when it came to fighting. Hence, he was very much surprised to see that Michael was a matched rival to Sean in this contest of strength.Clearly, Michael had been practicing diligently and did not neglect his martial arts practice.However, there was one thing that Michael did not understand. Sean was a descendant of the Stewarts. The education and training he received since childhood was nothing ordinary people could tolerate.The biggest mistake Michael made was touching on the subject of Sean’s mother.Even though Sean was in a terrible state at the moment, h
“Sure, go ahead and call the cops. We’re just a couple quarreling. See if the cops care.” Infuriated, he stared intently at the woman in front of him. Since they could not go back to how things were in the past, then he would do anything just to keep her by his side. He… just wanted to see her every day.With innumerable thoughts running through Sean’s mind, not once had it occurred to him that all that was left in his heart was a love gained from his petty pleading.Michael stood up abruptly
Those words had perhaps sparked off something in the woman in front of him. Although her face was tense, she still maintained a trace of calm. Suddenly, as though something had fired up within her, those pupils of hers that seemed like a pool of stagnant water turned sharp!“What do you want me to do?“What do you want me to do!“What else can I do?“Mr. Stewart changes his tricks and games again and again. I’ve been afraid. I’ve escaped. I’ve hidden!“But he!”She raised her hand and poin
“I…” She wanted to ask if she had made a mistake, if this was just a misunderstanding. Her hoarse muttering fell in the eyes of another person. Another conclusion was made.Michael walked up to her and said, “I'm sorry. I didn't know that a push could bring such serious consequences.” There was a trace of guilt on his face. No more, no less, just the right amount. The woman looked behind her and was stunned for a moment before shaking her head. “It has nothing to do with you.”The man's broad palm that was hiding behind him clenched and relaxed. Nothing to do with him, huh? It was too late now. It had and must had everything to do with him.He expressed what he felt in his heart. With a sudden “Sss”, he wore a painful look on his face.“You… What’s wrong, Mr. Luther?”“Nothing.” The man with the pained look on his face covered the back of his waist, looking guilty of being found out. He endured the pain and shook his head at the woman. “I’m fine.”“Don't move.” Feeling suspicious
“Boss, isn't your surname Stewart?" Jojo chased after her and asked cautiously. “Why are they calling you Jane Dunn?”At the door of her room, the woman stopped and glanced at Jojo. There was fear in the girl's eyes. She searched her gaze and realized that the girl had put away the childlike innocence she used to have in front of her. It was now replaced by fear.“You’re afraid of me, aren’t you, Jojo?”The woman asked a question in reply.With a swoosh, the immature face of the girl in fron
