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
The door of the ward was pushed open, and Zoey originally thought it was a nurse coming to deliver the bill from last night. Unexpectedly, two unexpected guests arrived.Jordan and Dahlia.Because there was no surveillance in the villa, how the old man entered the basement can only be relied upon the testimony of the servant at present.Just last night, two servants confessed that the reason the old man was in the basement was because he didn't want to leave with Zoey!But as soon as she opened her mouth, it was all about maintaining Zoey's image and she couldn't speak the truth.Zoey found it amusing that they were so confident and fearless, thinking that their grandfather would protect them. After all, family matters should not be made public, or perhaps they thought their grandfather would never wake up.She coldly asked, "What are you here for?"Jordan looked around the ward and there was no sign of Russell.He snorted coldly and said in a harsh tone, "Of course, it was to visit m
The warm yellow light illuminated the room.The two people on the bed held each other tightly.Zoey lay on Russell's chest and said, "Russell, both the Venomous Worm and your illness would be cured."Russell gently caressed her thin back, "I knew."Zoey suddenly looked up at him and asked, "Are you thinking about separating from me again?"Watching the girl's eyes turn red, Russell felt a pang of heartache. "No, after going through life and death, all I want is to be with you every moment. Zoey, I'm sorry, can you forgive my previous thoughts?""No good," Zoey pouted. "Ever since you had this idea, I have felt very insecure, always thinking that you would leave me at any moment.""Sorry..."Zoey covered the man's mouth and said, "I don't want to hear you say sorry."Russell kissed her palm and moved away, "My bad, can we not talk about it anymore in the future?""What if you said it again?""Then may I be s
Upon hearing such a title, Enzo was so infuriated that he almost fell backwards, but his happiness outweighed his anger.He hugged Roderick tightly, "You devil, I missed you so much!"Roderick stiffened and quickly pushed the person away, "Don't ruin my reputation!"Enzo rolled his eyes and said, "Both of us are halfway in the grave, why do we care about this?" As he spoke, he prepared to pounce.Roderick pushed the person away again, "Disrespectful to the elderly!"Enzo was speechless.Zoey had gotten used to their love-hate relationship, and if it wasn't like that, it meant that they had fallen out.But being able to see such a scene again, she was happy.Roderick glanced at Zoey and Russell, "You two, come in."Gilberto, who was not called out, naturally went back to his own room.He made a phone call, his eyes filled with gloom, "Why are they still alive?""Sorry boss, that old man changed the password
Thanks to King Worm, there was a person beneath each of its footholds.After Zoey, Russell, and Gilberto dug the snow with their hands and rescued the person, Zoey quickly provided medical treatment.When the third person was rescued, the rescuers arrived.Because the rescue tools were in place, the remaining few people were all found.Unfortunately, two people had already lost signs of life.Zoey felt a bit heartbroken as these people came to rescue others, but ended up losing their lives in an avalanche.Russell put his arm around her shoulder and said, "The world is unpredictable."Zoey felt sad and guilty in her heart, "Let's give their families some more compensation."Russell nodded, "Okay."Zoey suddenly remembered the laboratory and she held the man's hand. "Gilberto and I fell into a cave after encountering an avalanche. Later, due to my digging through the snow, the gravity became uneven, and we fell into a lab
This feline species walked almost silently, and combined with Zoey's intense focus on examining those experimental pods, she didn't even notice the arrival of danger.When she turned around, the snow leopard was too close to her, and she didn't have time to react at all.Her pitch-black pupils reflected a scene of a snow leopard baring its sharp teeth and pouncing towards her.She hesitated for a moment, and instinctively raised the tightly gripped surgical knife.But this is almost like a flea trying to shake a tree.Just then, Gilberto pushed her aside, and the snow leopard pounced on him, knocking him down to the ground.Zoey was pushed aside and saw the snow leopard pounce on the man, splattering Gilberto's face with bright red blood.Zoey thought Gilberto's neck had been bitten off, so she rushed up to stab the snow leopard.Just then, Gilberto raised his hand and said, "I'm fine!"The snow leopard lay on him and be
Time passed bit by bit, and the air in the cave began to thin.Zoey clearly felt a wave of suffocation."Gilberto."Gilberto looked at her and said, "Were you feeling unwell?"Zoey said, "I felt like we couldn't wait for the rescue team anymore."Gilberto unconsciously furrowed his brow, "Do you want to shovel snow?"Zoey nodded and said, "Yes, even if we stay indoors, we will still die. We might as well give it a try."Gilberto asked, "Otherwise, should we wait a little longer?""Sorry, I can't wait any longer. I don't want to die here without even trying. I'm going to find Russell," Zoey said, and then she started digging the snow.Gilberto tightened his lips and watched her dig with all her might.Under the heavy snow, one had to dig at least one meter deep to go out.After a while, Gilberto crawled over to dig with Zoey. However, while digging, he paid close attention to the movements below.The
Looking around, there was only endless white snow, with no other objects.Zoey heard not only the sound of the wind but also the sound of her own heartbeat.Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but she felt as if something was staring at them with a predatory gaze.Russell said, "Since that's the case, let's not separate. Gilberto's friend's rescue team consists of ten people, plus the two who went missing earlier, making it a total of twelve people. It's impossible that we won't find anyone, as they must have encountered some danger. Let's stay alert and make sure no one gets left behind."Gilberto nodded, "This area belonged to a collapsing zone, and I suspect they might have fallen into a cave. Anyway, it is most important to protect ourselves first."Zoey fell silent. It had been over 36 hours since the two senior brothers had gone missing, and this was not good.Russell saw through her thoughts, "They would definitely be fine."
The man was wearing a white down jacket, army green work pants, and cotton work boots. His facial features stood out particularly on this snowy night.He curved his lips and walked forward, "Are you friends of Mr. Conway?"Zoey was taken aback. Is this the little brother who saved her master?She nodded slightly and said, "Hello, we are his friends. And you are?"The man's deep brown eyes twinkled with amusement. "My name is Gilberto Baldwin. I encountered Mr. Conway on the snowy mountain, and he had a high fever, so he asked me to come and fetch you all.""Thank you," Zoey asked, "Was he seriously injured?"Gilberto laughed and said, "It was a bit serious but not too serious. He had a high fever of 39℃, but he ate two bowls of rice at night and had a good appetite."Zoey pursed her lips. Her master indeed had such a personality. "So, could you please take us to find him?"Gilberto nodded at Russell and Zoey, "Alright, I took y
Zoey quickly swiped the answer button on the screen, "Master!"The sound of wind howled on the other end of the phone, and a man's breathless voice came through, "Zoey, my master just got a signal here and just saw the message.""Master, did you encounter any danger?""There was a snow leopard on this mountain! Yesterday, I got separated from your senior brothers. My old bones almost perished on this mountain, but luckily I encountered a little brother who was exploring here.""Did you get injured?""No, but it was quite thrilling. Just when the snow leopard pounced on my neck, I thought I was going to meet the King of Hell. But this little brother of mine hit it on the head with a stick, knocking it out. He led me out of the snowy mountains, and that's when we got a signal. We are currently heading down the mountain, trying to see if we can contact your senior brothers. Are you asking me about the Bound Worm?""Yeah, Russell encountered a v
Zoey let out a soft sigh from her nostrils and said, "I wanted to tell him once, but I didn't want to say it after being interrupted. I was afraid he would feel pressured. Now that this has happened, I don't want him to know even more."Leanna hugged Zoey and said, "Zoey, you were under so much pressure. In the future, if you have something on your mind, you must tell me! Don't bear so much on your own.""Okay," Zoey curved her lips.Leanna filled her wine glass and raised it to toast Zoey. "Zoey, I apologize for the falling out we had in our past lives. How could I be such a jerk and give up on you as a good friend? Knowing that Nelson and Ariana were jerks, how could I let you jump into the fire pit? I really want to give my past self a good slap. Zoey, in this life and the next, we will be the best of friends!"Zoey also raised her glass and clinked it with hers, making a crisp sound. "Cheers, forever friends."The two of them drank alcohol and
