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
The ambiguous atmosphere made Russell lose control a little. He held Zoey's slender waist with one hand and cupped the back of her head with the other, kissing her even more passionately.Zoey's oxygen was almost taken away from her mouth, and her weak hands were placed on the man's shoulders, being kissed passionately.Until her back sank into the soft cushion, the man with calloused hands slipped into her nightgown and traced along the beautiful waistline.Zoey softly hummed, which intensely stimulated the man's senses.His thin lips rubbed against the girl's earlobe, "Zoey."His tongue was too hot, and Zoey's eyelashes trembled lightly as she held the handsome man's face in her hands. "Do you need me to help you treat your hidden illness?"Russell's hard Adam's apple rolled down, before he could speak, Zoey tilted her head up and kissed him.At that moment, there came a series of urgent knocks on the door.The lips of the two separated, both panting.Russell got up and, after takin
Waves surged up in an instant.Many netizens were quite trustworthy and went to authenticate the authenticity of the recording.Soon, someone confirmed that the recording was true.The incident quickly spread on the Internet, and half an hour later, the recording event topped the hot search and became the headline news on major websites.Ariana's pure and innocent image completely collapsed in the past, revealing her true nature as a treacherous and venomous woman!From fiancé to voiceover and then to sketches, Ariana also took away what from Zoey?Did Ariana's use of her own grandfather's life as a threat constitute a crime?The Harmon family sisters have once again caused a stir, with Ariana's artwork allegedly coming from Zoey's hands?What does Ariana have besides awkward acting skills?***At this moment, Ariana, who was driving, unaware of these things, was still humming a song in a very good mood.After arriving at the Harmon's villa from the suburban villa, she opened the door
Zoey was very skeptical about the maid's explanation."Did you see who answered the call?"The servant said, "No, the old master said you came to pick him up, so he just picked up the suitcase and got into the car.""What was the license plate number?"The servant shook his head, "I didn't pay attention."Zoey squinted her eyes, took a step forward, while at the same time, the servant stepped back.She sneered, "What are you afraid of?"The servant lowered his head and said, "No, I, I just don't like being too close to people."Zoey shook her phone and said, "I recorded everything you just said. If you lie, I will sue you immediately."The servant furrowed his brow, a hint of panic flickering in his eyes. "Ms. Harmon, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first.""Sure!"Zoey watched as the servant closed the door, and the smile on her lips instantly disappeared.She severed ties with the Harmon family. If she were to forcefully enter and search now, she would definitely be charged by
Dahlia wanted to rush up, but Jordan grabbed her arm.Because he saw a man sitting in a wheelchair behind Zoey, looking at them with a gloomy and cold expression.Dahlia forcefully pushed Jordan away and rushed towards Zoey, raising her hand.Just as the slap was about to land, Zoey clenched the woman's wrist and coldly said, "Mrs. Harmon, do you want to go to jail?"Dahlia glared at her, "Zoey, I was your mother!"Yes, hatred!With eyes full of hatred, he wished he could tear her apart!Zoey didn't misunderstand, she said in a indifferent tone, "From childhood to now, I have never felt that you are my mother. I'll ask again, where did you hide grandpa?"Dahlia pulled her hand back and said, "I didn't know!""Alright! If found, I will definitely sue you all! You must not regret it!"Dahlia almost bit her silver teeth, "How could I have such a disgraceful daughter like you! Not only do I want to cut ties with you, but I also want to sue us!"Zoey looked at the woman's contorted face, a
Jordan looked at the anger in Zoey's eyes, and his pupils momentarily contracted.He stammered, "I, I also don't know how your grandfather appeared there."He was confident that the servant would not sell him, after all, he had control over the servant's family.Now he is counting on the old man's consideration for him and will not reveal the truth.Zoey pushed him away, "Wait until grandpa wakes up, and you guys will be caught!"As per usual, the Harmon family couple were taken to the police station for questioning, while Matteo was taken to the hospital for a comprehensive examination.Russell looked at Zoey sitting by the bedside and put his hand on her shoulder. "Zoey, the old man will be fine."Zoey looked at the frail old person lying on the hospital bed and nodded.But she knew in her heart that after her grandfather was taken to the hospital for examination, it was discovered that he had suffered a mild brain injury due to lack of oxygen, which was irreversible.As for what ki
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. Howeve
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
