"He looked average, but his figure was really good!"

Zoey watched as Nelson's hand reached towards her face, and she immediately grabbed his finger and forcefully bent it backwards.

With a painful howl, Zoey swiftly turned around behind the man.

Because of the height difference, she grabbed the man's back collar tightly and Nelson bent backwards in a curved position.

Zoey's silver needle on her fingertips emitted a chilling glow under the light, and that silver needle pressed against Nelson's carotid artery.

"Let them put away their guns."

Nelson gritted his teeth and said, "Do you dare to threaten me?"

Zoey scoffed lightly, "Then you can try to see if their guns were faster or my needle was faster."

She said, and she stabbed the needle into the man's neck.

A sharp pain came, Nelson raised his hand, signaling to stop.

With Nelson, the humanoid shield, Zoey quickly moved from the second floor to the first floor.

At that moment, the villa gate was kicked open with a loud bang.

    Zoey returned to Serene Manor and went straight into her bedroom.She pulled out her computer and hacked into the Police Station, deleting all the traces of her whereabouts. Then, she changed into a set of long-sleeved pants and sat in front of the dressing table.Looking at her in the mirror, her face was pale and her lips had no color.Zoey lightly applied a layer of blush on her cheeks, then applied a thin layer of lipstick on her lips, and pursed her lips.It looked much better now. After she wiped away a smile, she got up and left the bedroom, heading to the kitchen to start cooking pasta.Emilee saw her entering the kitchen so late, so she followed her in."What are you going to do, Mrs. Maddox?"Zoey smiled and said, "I wanted to cook pasta.""Mr. Russell didn't eat enough?""Um."Emilee frowned and said, "Mrs. Maddox, why do you have so much sweat on your forehead?"Zoey pulled out a tissue from the nearby table and wiped it, "It might have been hot.""Hot?" Emilee looked her

    At that moment, Zoey suddenly opened her eyes and reached out to grab the man's arm."Zoey, you..."Zoey's voice was hoarse, "How did you come?"Russell looked serious and said, "I came to check if you kicked off the blanket, but I didn't expect you to have a fever."Zoey tidied up her clothes, leaning against the headboard with a mischievous smile on her lips. "Liar! You clearly just want to take advantage of me! Do you miss me? Without me to accompany you to sleep, you can't sleep, right?""Yes," Russell admitted directly. He suddenly stood up from the wheelchair and sat on the edge of the bed, facing the girl's astonished gaze.Zoey really didn't expect Russell to suddenly stand up and expose himself, "You, what is this?"Russell held her chin and said, "You were Dr. Z."This was an affirmative sentence, Russell affirmed her identity."Zoey, tonight you took a bullet for me. Let me see your wound."Zoey pursed her lips and asked, "How did you find out?""When we were at the old hou

    Woodmerrow was a city that never slept.Nighttime is a paradise for many second-generation wealthy individuals.Nelson felt frustrated at the thought of not having killed Russell and Dr. Z tonight.He drove to the club where he used to have fun on a regular basis.Sitting in front of the bar, he ordered several shots of strong liquor.After drinking cup after cup, his mood seemed to have eased a bit.At this moment, a figure appeared by his side.The pleasant scent of perfume wafted over, and Nelson looked over to see a blonde-haired, blue-eyed woman wearing a red dress sitting next to him.The woman glanced at him and said in a sweet voice, "Sir, can you buy me a drink?""Of course," Nelson raised his chin, and the bartender immediately brought a glass of the same drink to the woman.Nelson enjoyed seducing women, after all, being with different women gave him different experiences.Before, I used to be more reserved because I was afraid of being discovered by Zoey. But now, I don't

    In a spacious room, Russell helped Zoey change her medicine.Hearing the girl's question, Russell paused slightly and then continued with his actions. "After saving you that night, I was hit by a beam on my lumbar spine. My classmates rescued me and contacted my father, who then sent me abroad for medical treatment overnight. However, even the most skilled doctors at that time were helpless, and I was eventually pronounced unable to walk again. Five years later, I met an old man with long white hair and beard. He was highly skilled in medicine and used massage, acupuncture, herbal medicine, and medication. After a year of treatment, I gradually regained sensation in my legs until I fully recovered."Zoey asked, "What was the name of that old man?""He said his name was Loner."Zoey blinked her eyes and said, "Loner? This person seems really lonely and silent! But I haven't heard of such a character, maybe there are always more extraordinary people out there. Can you still contact him

    Zoey pushed Russell into Carolyn's bedroom.The girl lay there quietly, her face much rosier than before.Zoey sat by the bed and took her pulse, before finally withdrawing her hand after a while.Russell asked, "When could she wake up?""About one week or so.""I don't know if Braylen found the person who spiked the drink. I'll go back to the old house later and ask." Russell said.Zoey nodded, "The fact that Carolyn was drugged indicates that someone didn't want her to wake up. When we go to the old house today, we can announce that Carolyn is about to wake up. I believe the person behind this won't be able to contain themselves."Russell's thin lips curled into a faint smile as he said, "Zoey was very clever."Zoey sighed, wishing that she had been smarter in her past life so that she wouldn't have died so tragically, and as a result, caused Russell to lose his life as well.In the past life, all she could do was take control and make sure that Nelson and Ariana, this pair of scumb

    Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the butler summoned the family rules.He took out a wooden stick from the rectangular wooden box and stood behind Nelson.Livia, upon seeing this, immediately knelt behind Nelson and cried out, "Nelson's back just healed not long ago, he can't be hit again! Those photos must be misleading, Nelson is a victim. Dad, please give Nelson a chance to investigate who is plotting against him, trying to harm the Maddox family!"Alonso was truly furious this time. "Regardless of whether he was set up or not, his actions have truly brought shame upon the Maddox family! Counting each and every incident, this is an absolute disgrace to the Maddox family! Hit him! Hit him hard!"The butler nodded, "Yes!"He raised his hand and struck heavily on Nelson's back.As the stick came down, Nelson took a sharp breath and felt an intense pain, almost as if he was going to die from it.He suddenly turned his head and glared at the butler, who was completely undeterred by

    Zoey spoke, and that represented Russell.Alonso asked, "How did Zoey think we should punish?"Zoey coldly glanced at Nelson, who had done wrong and showed no remorse. "Although Russell and I didn't have a wedding, we are still a married couple as we have obtained a marriage certificate. What I mean is Russell's intention. According to the 39th rule of the Maddox family's regulations, anyone who harms a family member will be immediately disowned from the Maddox family lineage and cannot inherit any property of the Maddox family!"Nelson did not expect that Zoey would be so relentless, pushing him into a corner.Since the engagement banquet, he has suffered heavy losses because of Zoey.His eyes were bloodshot, his tongue pressed against his back teeth, wishing he could tear apart the woman in front of him.Livia knelt in front of the old man and old lady, "Nelson was just talking nonsense. He was being self-destructive, taking on blame that wasn't his. Nelson grew up under your watch,

    The old lady was particularly fond of Zoey. She asked her to stay and have dinner, and then they made peach blossom cakes together.Zoey loved food and was also very interested in baking, so she was happy to learn from the old lady.While waiting for the steaming process, the old lady glanced towards the kitchen door and, seeing no one, she pulled Zoey to her side and asked in a low voice, "Zoey, to be honest, how intimate are you and Russell?"Zoey awkwardly tugged at the corner of her lips.She knew that the old lady wanted to ask if Russell was capable in that aspect.This was a rather secretive topic, and she didn't know how to answer it for a moment.Although the two of them did not have a substantial relationship, she could sense that Russell was probably good in that aspect.She coughed lightly twice, "Um..."The old lady raised her hand to stop her words and sighed, "I understand, Russell is really not good in that aspect. You are so excellent, being able to marry Russell is h

    In the spacious exhibition hall, all the audience members became excited.They all wanted to see these three people entangle themselves and reap what they had sown.Nelson looked up at Zoey and said, "Zoey, you are truly malicious. Ariana has already fainted, why haven't you let her go?""Fainted?" Zoey chuckled lightly, slowly getting up from her seat and retrieving an iron box from her handbag. From it, she took out a thin and long silver needle. "I am particularly skilled at treating illnesses where people faint at critical moments. Roland!"Roland instantly understood and pinned Nelson to the ground, pressing his knee firmly against him.Zoey squatted beside Ariana and said, "Ariana, silver needles can be used to wake someone up when they are inserted into the head or neck. Where do you want to be pricked?"Zoey's lips curled into a wicked smile as she slowly stabbed towards her brow with a sinister intention.Ariana felt something approaching,

    The double doors of the exhibition hall were opened, and two bodyguards escorted a woman of about fifty years old inside.Zoey looked at Ariana, who tried to appear calm but panic was already evident in her eyes.She smiled and asked, "Were you nervous?"Ariana immediately retorted, raising her voice, "How is that possible! I didn't even know this woman, what does she have to do with me!"Zoey sighed, "You really don't know this woman, after all, it was Mrs. Harmon who personally contacted her."Ariana clenched the skirt by her side, "Don't talk nonsense! Don't falsely accuse my mother of crimes she didn't commit! Zoey, we are sisters after all, why are you lying with a clear conscience and trying to frame our mother?"Zoey shrugged, "Did I lie? Accuse? If you don't want others to know, don't do it!"The bodyguard escorted the woman onto the stage.The woman looked up and saw a sea of people below.Zoey's face darkened, "To tell you the t

    The host, Leandro, took the stage and took a deep breath before forcing a difficult smile."Unexpectedly, today's product launch event gave birth to twin works, and they were even created by twin designers. So now, let's invite the two designers to take the stage!"In the lounge.Leanna patted Zoey's shoulder and said, "Good luck! I'll go find the best shooting angle now, and wait for Ariana, Jayleen, and Nelson to give you thirty bows."Zoey nodded, "Please shoot in high definition."Leanna made an OK gesture.As soon as Zoey left, the rest of the designers crowded around, "Ms. Spence, you know the inside story, right? Tell us first, please? We're all dying of impatience!""Yeah, Ms. Spence, stop beating around the bush. What's the matter after all?"Leanna pointed at the big screen and said, "Why rush? It's great to watch a movie for free."The crowd: "..."Zoey was about to step onto the stage from the waiting area behind the runw

    Under the runway is the audience seating area, where the ticket prices vary for each row. The closer to the front, the more expensive the tickets are.The first row, also known as the VIP area, was already being resold for one million per ticket, and tickets were extremely hard to come by.Most of them were female celebrities and heiresses.This time, even the winner of the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress, Madeleine Keller, appeared on the scene.The woman had a graceful figure, and there was a charm in her eyebrows and eyes. However, she also exuded a coldness that made people feel she was only meant to be admired from afar and not approached.Madeleine treated her assistant well and especially bought her a ticket.The assistant whispered, "This time, Galaxy Studio used a new designer's sketches. It is said that Star didn't submit any drafts, and I don't know if they were excluded. This designer's name is Zoey, and she is the fiancée of R

    Ariana looked towards the sound, her eyes filled with unmistakable anger and hatred.Roland looked at her provocatively, "Has everyone forgotten Zoey and Ariana's conversation? All of Ariana's sketches were created by Zoey's hand! Perhaps this time too!"Ariana almost bit her porcelain teeth, wishing she could devour the silver-haired man in front of her.Just in public, she still had to maintain her composure.She looked pitifully, "I did stay in a mental hospital for a few days because I was really depressed. I admit that Zoey used to be my voice substitute, but I don't admit that those sketches were drawn by her. Because those sketches were all created by my hard work, day and night, I absolutely do not accept Zoey's argument. I hope to prove my strength through this new product launch, and I believe I will lead Born Beauty further and further."The design director Jayleen on the side also nodded solemnly, "I can prove that these drafts were drawn by Aria

    After Russell hung up the phone, he looked at Zoey."That person was silenced."Zoey pursed her lips and said, "It seems like we will have to trace the source through Sophia's phone."Russell nodded.The two of them returned to the bedroom, and Russell began to recover the contents of his phone."The other party's card was not registered with an identity, and the location of the signal it emitted was not within the country. Nelson has been in the country all along, and there is no relevant information on his phone, so it cannot be ruled out that Sophia sent the message to an overseas code, which was then forwarded to Nelson by the other party. They communicate through virtual numbers on the internet, so the source cannot be traced."Zoey clicked her tongue and said, "Nelson has finally become smart. It doesn't matter, even the smartest fox can't escape the hunter's grasp. Since we suspect it's him, let's just keep an eye on him, he will definitely strik

    In the following days, Zoey was always leaving early and coming back late, and when she returned, she would quickly take a shower and go straight to bed.Because she had prepared an alternative plan, only she and Leanna knew about this matter, so the finished clothes could only pass through their hands.Russell was unaware of her plan and only felt that Zoey had been scared that night, so she was avoiding him.That night, Zoey came back with a tired body.She lay directly on the bed, and Russell, seeing this, helped her massage her shoulders and neck. "You look very tired," he said."Um." Zoey recounted this incident to Russell.Russell finally realized that Zoey was not ignoring him, but she was really tired.Zoey noticed his thoughtful expression and quickly climbed up, sitting on his lap. "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"Russell's deep gaze fixed on her, "Were you thinking if your aunt's period had ended?"Zoey's face turne

    Zoey entered Russell's room and found him standing by the French window, talking on the phone.His deep blue pajamas blended seamlessly with the curtains of the same color, and upon hearing the sound, he turned his gaze. His fair complexion appeared even cleaner and more refreshing.He hung up the phone and walked up to Zoey.Zoey lowered her gaze, her teeth lightly biting her lower lip.Russell raised her chin with his fingertips and said, "Are you afraid to look at me?"Zoey mumbled, "Where is it?"Russell took a step forward and met her toe-to-toe, "I'm sorry, I was a bit out of control today.""It's okay, I can understand. After all, you were drugged.""What if I wasn't drugged?"Zoey swallowed her saliva, and she was indeed a little scared.Russell chuckled and lifted the person horizontally, "Go to bed early, hmm?""Okay."Zoey lay in the man's arms, her nose filled with the clean and pleasant scent of the man.

    At that moment, Russell's eyes were filled with crimson, and he was breathing heavily."Zoey, you helped me."Zoey bit her lower lip, made up her mind, and reached out for the man's belt.The scorching sensation made her breath almost stall, and her ears were burning.Her hands were trembling, and she closed her eyes, allowing him to fiddle with her.Russell greedily kissed her lips, not hiding his overwhelming desire.I don't know how long it took, but Russell finally stopped.Zoey moved slightly and asked, "Is it done?""Okay, it seemed good, but then it didn't."Russell looked at Zoey's watery eyes, her lips slightly parted and reddened from the kiss. The surprise in her eyes couldn't be concealed as she asked, "What does that mean?"Russell's Adam's apple rolled, "I wanted to have another go."Zoey: "?"Russell traced down along her slender neck and delicate collarbone, pushing up her T-shirt to reveal a section of fair
