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
Abigail was momentarily surprised when she saw Zoey."Zoey, are you there?"Zoey smiled and said, "Yeah, I came to see Carolyn.""I am too," Abigail stepped forward and glanced at the girl lying on the bed, her complexion already rosy. "My sister will wake up in a few days, I'm really happy! Dr. Z is really amazing, I admire her so much."Zoey sneered inwardly, are you sure you didn't hate her to death?She got up and said, "You have a really good relationship with Carolyn. Even though you got hurt like this, you still care about her."Abigail sniffed, "Carolyn and I grew up together, we had a deep bond. I never expected her to change like this after she fell down the stairs three years ago. I am particularly heartbroken, Carolyn used to be a lively and adorable girl who was loved by everyone."Zoey patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, within three days, Carolyn will wake up. Let's go out and let her rest well."Abigail nodded, a hint of unwillingness flickered in her eyes, but
Abigail looked around and realized that there was no one else here. She coaxed Emilee."Emilee, could you give me that?"Emilee scrambled to her feet and asked, "What did I give you?""It's something that was clenched in the palm of your hand."Emilee shook her head and refused, "This is not something good, of course I can't give it to you. Do you want to feed it to Miss Er? Do you want to poison Miss Er?"Abigail smiled, "How could it be? It was just a jelly bean. I thought my sister was waking up, so I fed her a jelly bean."Emilee snorted, "Whether it's sugar or poison, as long as Mr. Russell takes it for testing, we'll know!"Abigail's tone was cold and threatening, "Emilee, don't toast and not drink, or you'll be punished!"At that moment, the door was pushed open.Zoey pushed Russell in and raised her eyebrows lightly, "Who said they won't drink the toast and will be punished?"Abigail had intended to feed Carolyn the pill to keep her from waking up, but she didn't expect Emilee
It was nearly 2 o'clock in the morning.Zoey nestled in Russell's arms, listening to the man's heartbeat racing a bit. She furrowed her brow."Why is your heartbeat so fast? Let me check your pulse, you don't have any heart-related issues, do you?"Russell chuckled lightly and tightened his hand around the girl's slender waist, "Because you were in my arms."Zoey smiled and said, "Then I should stay away from you, otherwise, if it goes on for too long, I'm afraid you might have a heart attack." Saying that, she wanted to pull away from his embrace.Russell, on the other hand, held the person tightly, "No, I would rather have a heart disease than suffer from lovesickness."Zoey laughed out loud, "How come you're so good at sweet-talking? Have you said these things to someone before?""No, I have only spoken to you.""I don't believe it. Your mouth is so sweet, you must have practiced it many times.""Is your mouth sweet?"Zoey nodded and then shook her head, "Not sure, I'll taste it be
The door of the ward was opened, and Zoey saw Jordan and Dahlia arguing fiercely with the bodyguards, with many onlookers around.Zoey asked in a low voice, "What did you come here for?"Jordan raised his chin and said, "Of course, it was to see my dad! You should know that you have already cut ties with the Harmon family! Now, you have no right to stop me from seeing my dad!"Zoey sneered, "I severed ties with all of you, but I still acknowledge my grandfather."Jordan sneered, "Zoey, you should know that I am the old man's guardian now!"This point is undecided.Zoey couldn't change the guardian because there was no solid evidence to prove that Jordan, the unworthy descendant, was responsible for her grandfather's accident.She hoped for her grandfather to wake up and tell the story of what happened that night.If it involved the Harmon couple, she naturally had to take both of them to the police station and rightfully take the grandfather away.Jordan hummed and walked in with long
When Russell saw Zoey looking so serious for the first time, he felt that something was very serious, so he led her to sit down on the sofa.He looked at her with deep eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"Zoey recounted what had happened in the ward before.Russell's eyes narrowed as he heard the words."They dared to threaten you so brazenly."Zoey held his hand and said, "Actually, I had an idea, I don't know if it would work."Russell held her hand tightly and said, "Tell me."Zoey expressed her thoughts, and Russell's eyes lit up. "I think it's a good idea. We can give it a try."Russell stretched out her fingertips and furrowed her brow slightly. "It might be a good thing that the old man can't remember certain things, because that way the Harmon family feels that he poses no threat. He is safe until we carry out our plan."Looking at the girl who was still sulking, he held her in his lap and comforted her, "Zoey, don't worry, okay?"Zoey nodded and felt at ease as she leaned against
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
