Nelson's eyes darkened with malice, not expecting Zoey to show him no respect whatsoever.

He uncrossed his legs, leaned forward, and lowered his voice, "Stop talking nonsense!"

Zoey responded nonchalantly, "Then why did you come find me?"

"I have a friend..." Nelson began.

Zoey laughed out loud. "A friend out of nowhere?"

Nelson clenched his teeth, wanting to crush her, and hissed, "I’m going to another place for treatment."

Zoey was about to refuse when two men in suits appeared behind her, pressing a knife to her back.

Nelson smiled with satisfaction. "A knife is just as good as a gun, so please, go ahead."

Zoey narrowed her eyes. "Are you threatening me?"

Nelson grinned.

Zoey sneered. "Do you really think this can hold me back?"

Nelson raised his chin, and one of the suited men moved behind Octavio Munoz, the owner of Hines Hall. Octavio froze, looking pale.

"Since you can appear here, it means you're quite familiar with the owner. If you don't want anything to happen to him, come w

    "Not bad looking, but that body is quite impressive!"Zoey watched as Nelson reached for her face. Without hesitation, she grabbed his fingers and twisted them sharply, causing him to howl in pain. With a swift turn, Zoey moved behind the man, using her height advantage to grip the back of his collar and pull him backward. Nelson was bent in an awkward position, his neck exposed.A gleaming silver needle, held between Zoey's fingertips, pressed into the artery at Nelson’s neck.“Tell them to put the guns down.”Nelson gritted his teeth, seething, “You dare threaten me?”Zoey scoffed lightly, “Try it. Let’s see if their guns are faster or my needle is.”With that, she drove the needle into his neck.The sharp pain made Nelson raise his hand in surrender. “Stop.”With Nelson as a human shield, Zoey quickly moved from the second floor to the ground floor. Just as she reached the bottom, the villa door was kicked open with a loud bang.A group of men in black tactical jackets stormed in, a

    Zoey returned to Serene Manor and went straight to her bedroom.She pulled out her laptop and hacked into the police station’s system, deleting all traces of her whereabouts. Then, she changed into a long-sleeve, long-pants home outfit and sat at the vanity.Looking into the mirror, she saw her pale face and bloodless lips.Zoey picked up some blush and lightly applied a layer to her cheeks, then dabbed a thin layer of lipstick on her lips, pressing them together.She looked much better. After forcing a slight smile, she stood up, left the bedroom, and went to the kitchen to make some noodles.When Emilee saw her heading to the kitchen so late, she followed her in."Young Mistress, what are you making?" Emilee asked.Zoey smiled. "I'm making some noodles.""Did Mr. Russell not eat enough?""Mm."Emilee frowned. "Young Mistress, why is there so much sweat on your forehead?"Zoey grabbed a tissue from a nearby table and wiped her face. "It might just be the heat.""The heat?" Emilee look

    At that moment, Zoey suddenly opened her eyes and reached out to grab Russell’s arm."Zoey, you…"Her voice was hoarse. "Why are you here?"Russell’s expression was serious. "I came to check if you kicked off the blanket, but I didn’t expect you to have a fever."Zoey adjusted her clothes and leaned against the headboard with a mischievous smile. "Liar! You just wanted to take advantage of me, didn’t you? You miss me, right? You can’t sleep without me, can you?""Yes." Russell admitted directly. He suddenly stood up from his wheelchair, surprising her as he sat down on the edge of the bed.Zoey was completely taken aback by his sudden movement, exposing herself. "You, what are you doing?"Russell grabbed her chin and looked at her with certainty. "You are Dr. Z."It wasn’t a question—it was a statement of fact. Russell had figured out her identity."Zoey, tonight, you took the bullet for me. Let me see your wound."Zoey pursed her lips. "How did you figure it out?""When we were at the

    Woodmerrow was a city that never slept.At night, it became a paradise for many rich second-generation heirs.Nelson felt a knot in his chest as he thought about how he had failed to kill Russell and Dr. Z earlier that night. Feeling frustrated, he drove to a club he often visited to unwind.Sitting at the bar, he ordered several shots of hard liquor. As he drank one after another, his mood seemed to improve slightly.At that moment, a figure appeared beside him. The scent of perfume reached his nose, and when he turned, a woman in a red dress with blonde hair and blue eyes sat down next to him.She glanced at him and, in a soft voice, asked, “Would you buy me a drink?”“Of course,” Nelson replied, raising his chin. The bartender immediately served the same drink to the woman.Nelson enjoyed the thrill of flirting with different women, as each one brought a unique experience. Previously, he had been cautious around Zoey, but now that he didn’t have to hide his intentions, he could be m

    In the large room, Russell was helping Zoey change her bandages.Upon hearing her question, Russell paused for a moment, then continued his task. “After I saved you that night, I was hit in the lower back by a beam. A classmate rescued me and contacted my father, who had me rushed overseas for treatment. However, even the best doctors at the time were helpless, and I was eventually told I would never walk again. Five years later, I met an elderly man. He had long white hair and a beard. His medical skills were remarkable, and through methods like massage, acupuncture, herbal treatments, and medication, after a year of treatment, I slowly regained feeling in my legs, and eventually, I fully recovered.”Zoey asked, “What was the name of that elderly man?”“He introduced himself as ‘Loner.’”Zoey blinked. “Loner? That’s a pretty lonely name! But I’ve never heard of such a person. Maybe there are always hidden talents out there. Can you still contact him now?”“I haven’t been in touch rece

    Zoey pushed Russell into Carolyn's bedroom.The girl was lying quietly in bed, looking much healthier than before with a more vibrant complexion.Zoey sat at the bedside to take Carolyn’s pulse, and after a while, she withdrew her hand.Russell asked, "When will she wake up?""Probably in about a week," Zoey replied."I wonder if Braylen has found the person who poisoned her. I’ll ask when we get to the old mansion," Russell said.Zoey nodded. "The fact that Carolyn was poisoned means someone didn’t want her to wake up. When we get to the old mansion, we can announce that Carolyn is about to wake up. I think the person behind this will not be able to resist."Russell smiled faintly. "Zoey is so clever."Zoey sighed inwardly. If she were truly clever, she wouldn’t have died so tragically in her past life, and she wouldn’t have caused Russell to lose his life as well. This time, her goal was clear: to take control of the situation and punish the scum, Nelson and Ariana, as they deserved!

    Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the butler brought the family punishment.He took a wooden rod from a rectangular wooden box and stood behind Nelson.Seeing this, Livia immediately crouched behind Nelson, crying out, "Nelson’s back is still healing. You can’t hit him again! Those photos must be fake; Nelson is a victim here. Dad, please give Nelson a chance to find out who is secretly plotting against him and trying to harm the Maddox family!"Alonso was genuinely furious this time. "Whether he’s being framed or not, his actions have already brought shame to the Maddox family! Let’s recount everything—this is a disgrace to the Maddox family! Hit him! Give him a heavy punishment!"The butler nodded, "Yes, sir!"He raised the rod and struck it heavily against Nelson’s back.The blow caused Nelson to gasp for air, the pain nearly unbearable. He quickly turned around to glare, but the butler showed no fear and continued to strike him relentlessly.Livia tried to block him but was terr

    When Zoey spoke, it was as though Russell himself had spoken.Alonso asked, “What punishment do you think is appropriate, Zoey?”Zoey gave Nelson, who had committed such an unforgivable act, a cold glance. “Although Russell and I haven’t had a wedding yet, we are legally married. My word is his word. According to the Maddox family rules, Article 39: Anyone from the Maddox family who harms their relatives shall be immediately removed from the family tree and stripped of all rights to inherit any Maddox family property!”Nelson didn’t expect Zoey to be so unforgiving, driving him into a corner. Ever since the engagement banquet, he had suffered immense losses because of Zoey.His eyes turned bloodshot, his teeth grinding together, wishing he could tear this woman apart.Livia, kneeling before the old man and old lady, pleaded, “Nelson is just speaking out of anger. He’s giving up on himself, taking blame for something he didn’t do. Nelson was raised by you both; he could never have such

    Russell couldn't explain it this time, he raised his hand and pressed his forehead.To avoid suspicion, Troy directly transferred to Dalton's hospital when he arrived.When Dalton entered the ward and saw Layne, his heart was deeply shaken.This child looks exactly like Zoey, identical in every way.No wonder Russell recognized this ghostly-looking Zoey at first sight.The little one blinked his big eyes and sucked on a lollipop, "Uncle, you looked so handsome!"Dalton approached and asked Russell, "Is this your son?"Russell nodded and asked, "Are you handsome?"Yasmine was speechless."Looking handsome!" Dalton wanted to say, the male version of Zoey looks really good, even better than Russell, but he remembered Russell's advice not to mention Zoey's name in front of Yasmine. He wanted her to remember on her own, so he held back the rest of his words.He raised his hand and rubbed the little guy's head, "Does it

Layne needed a blood transfusion now, saving the child is th

    Yasmine was initially startled, and then she began to struggle, but it was in vain.Russell was very skilled at using tricks to immobilize her."What did you want to do?"Russell smiled in his eyes and said, "I just wanted to ask you why you didn't take my pulse before giving me an injection."Yasmine did indeed forget about this matter, "It was my mistake, I apologize.""Do you have something on your mind?"Yasmine pursed her lips and denied, "No!""Are you still reminiscing about last night?" Russell had been thinking about keeping his distance from her after last night, but his body and mind couldn't help but want to get closer.He couldn't keep his distance!"I didn't!" Yasmine's voice involuntarily raised a few decibels.Russell saw that she was getting a little impatient, so he said, "Don't be angry, I let go."He slowly let go, and Yasmine pricked the needle.The needle was just about to stop

    The next morning.Yasmine woke up and realized that Layne was not by her side.She heard the laughter of children outside the window, so she got out of bed and went to the window.Russell was watering the roses with Layne.Layne held the water hose with both hands, while Russell bent down and held his little hand to help him control the direction. They watched as the water splashed around, and Layne laughed heartily.Yasmine's lips curled slightly, and this scene was quite heartwarming.But the smile on her face gradually disappeared, none of these belonged to her, what was she expecting and longing for?She wanted to find out as soon as possible if the Huffman family's tragedy was related to Russell.After she finished washing up, she reapplied her previous makeup and went outside the villa to call Layne back.Children are easily dependent on and attached to people, so she wanted to keep Layne away from Russell in order

    Russell's eyes were deep and dangerous as he stared at the man. "Who sent you?"The gaze was filled with a strong sense of danger, making the man's scalp tingle. He had no doubt that if he didn't tell the truth, Russell would kill him in the cruelest way possible.He confessed, "Derrick! Maddox is your Maddox, Derrick."Derrick?Russell had never heard this name before, but the surname Maddox was somewhat intriguing.He looked at the other four people and said, "Is that right?"The other four people also nodded repeatedly in agreement.Russell stood up and turned around to look at the two people still talking on the sofa, "I'm leaving, Derrick."Troy furrowed his brows, "This name sounds familiar to me. I think I've heard it somewhere before."Braeden rubbed his chin, "I feel like I've heard this name somewhere before."Russell took off his white gloves and said, "The rest is up to you guys, I'm going back first."

    Russell glanced at him and said, "What's the excitement? Have you been single for too long that you become perverted at the sight of a woman?"Troy chuckled and quickly pursed his lips, lowering his head.Dalton's mind seemed to be working particularly fast. He cleared his throat and said, "Have you improved a bit and started returning to your sarcastic state?"Russell put his arm around the man's shoulder and led him up the steps, heading towards the entrance of the hospital.Yasmine glanced at Troy and asked, "Who is he?"Troy respectfully replied, "He was Mr. Russell's good friend Dalton, and this hospital was opened by him."Yasmine nodded, "So this is the standard for every male protagonist in a romance novel, a doctor friend?"Troy was speechless.Yasmine shrugged her shoulders and quickly followed.As he watched the woman enter the door, Troy burst into laughter, but as he laughed, tears welled up in his eyes.

    Yasmine looked over suddenly, and the man stared ahead, gripping the steering wheel with both hands.His hands were slender, and his knuckles were distinct, just like a perfect piece of artwork.His profile was too outstanding, with contours that seemed to be outlined with charcoal, sharp and distinct.The protruding Adam's apple showcased the man's sexual tension, faintly exuding a wild scent.The dim yellow light of the streetlamp shone on his face, casting alternating shadows and highlights on his features, creating a sense of mystery.Russell glanced at her, "Did you really think so?"His voice sounded like it had been rubbed with sandpaper, with a low and magnetic tone, which was very pleasant to listen to.Yasmine stared at him, "Russell, weren't you loyal to your wife? Then why are you flirting with me?"Russell knew that he had upset her, so he stopped teasing her. "My wife wants me to live a good life."Yasmine

    Yasmine didn't expect Layne to say such words. She trembled her eyelashes and held the little one's hand back."Layne, marriage between a man and a woman must be built on a foundation of love and affection. It is a sad thing for someone to become a substitute for the person who holds love in their heart, as no one can replace them."Layne nodded, "I understood."He hugged Yasmine and looked at her with blinking eyes. "Mom, actually I think you are also pitiful, not knowing who Layne's dad is. So Layne thinks it's better for you not to look for dad and just stay with uncle."He sighed, "I don't want to think anymore, my brain capacity is not enough, the adult world is really too complicated. Mom, why don't you give me a bath instead! Layne is going to sleep!""Okay."Yasmine took him into the bathroom and gave him a bath.After coming out, the little one climbed onto the dressing table and sat on the chair, swinging his little legs.

    "Go back to Serene Manor?" Yasmine furrowed her brow. Derrick is now more dangerous than Russell, so going to Serene Manor is indeed a good idea, but it doesn't feel right.She cleared her throat and said, "Those people were chasing after you, what did Layne and I do?"Russell naturally guessed her thoughts, "Can't you cure me?"Yasmine lightly chuckled, "I saw you were quite normal now, maybe you didn't need any treatment after all.""That was because you were there." Russell and Yasmine's gazes collided in the rearview mirror.Yasmine averted her gaze and said, "I felt like your illness had improved for a month or two, so Layne and I would leave by then."Russell fell silent for a moment and then said, "Okay."Layne's eyes rolled around. One or two months, huh! Uncle better hurry up and become a father!Yasmine said, "Both Layne's and my belongings are at Rivulet Villa, we need to go and get them."Russell saw through
