Chapter 1516 Run Or Die

Author: Lemon Flavored Cat
Seaton dragged Aery along as he ran. It was a race against time in order to survive. That unreliable bachelor wouldn’t be able to buy them a lot of time. He had calculated it all. However, he didn’t think that Alejandro would arrive so quickly. He had arrived before he could change to a different hideout.

Aery had never suffered this kind of torture. She hadn’t slept or eaten well since her kidnapping, so she really couldn’t keep up. She began faltering before running too far and allowed Seaton to drag her along with a rope around her wrists. However, now she couldn’t run any longer and fell onto the ground. “I can’t. I can’t run anymore. If you want to run for your life, go ahead. Survival is most important now. Stop using me as a threat…”

Seaton forcefully dragged her to her feet and icily snapped, “Do you honestly think I’m enjoying cutting and running like this? You’re my hostage. I can’t let them take you home unscathed; I’d be humiliated. I’m giving you two choices now—either y

    Helen supported herself against the walls of the hallway and sat down. Her face was deathly pale. “How could this happen? Her ankle isn’t fully recovered. How much has she suffered? She has nothing to do with this mess… Why did she have to suffer all of this?”Arianne couldn’t listen to any more of this. She turned around and walked to the nearest chair, sitting down. Was Helen implying that Aery shouldn’t have suffered, and she should have instead? She could understand how Helen felt, but she couldn’t understand her selfishness. Who was she to Helen, after all this time?After an unknown amount of time, the door to the operating theatre opened. Helen immediately pounced. “Doctor, how is my daughter? Is she alright?”“After having a fall from such a considerable height, how could she be alright?” the doctor replied sternly. “Her head has suffered severe trauma, and her body has sustained a lot of broken bones. We’re not sure if she’ll regain consciousness. It’s highly likely… that s

    At around noon, Arianne carefully asked, “Would you like something to eat? Or a drink? I’ll get some for you.”Helen looked at her with a cold and distant stare and said, “I’m not that cold-blooded. I can’t eat or drink.”Arianne’s last nerve was close to snapping. “Can you stop being so prickly all the time? It’s Seaton’s fault that Aery’s turned out this way, not mine or Mark’s. If you have something to say to us, just say it!”Helen grew riled up. “I should just say it, should I? Okay, I’ll just say it then. How could Mark and Alejandro have allowed Aery to get hurt during their search for Seaton? There were so many people, yet Seaton still found the chance to hurt Aery. They clearly didn’t do a very good job. Aery had absolutely nothing to do with this; Seaton’s objective was you. Aery has suffered a blow for you, and even if you don’t feel any guilt, you shouldn’t act so cold and distant; you’re blood relatives! I saw it, your heart ached when you saw how Mark was up all night

    What had she done wrong? What had Mark done wrong?She wanted to leave, but her heart softened. She couldn’t leave Helen alone, so she stayed with her in the hospital the entire day and only left late at night. She even left Helen with something to eat and drink, despite the fact that Helen had refused to even look at her. She was this close to throwing it all away in front of her.She was exhausted, but she had done her best.She dragged her tired body back to Tremont Estate. Mark was still awake and was talking to Alejandro on the phone about Seaton. Alejandro had been chasing after Seaton since last night. They still hadn’t managed to catch him, but they did not dare lower their defenses. He was right under their noses now. If they gave up, their efforts would go to waste.Mark and Arianne weren’t the only ones feeling exhausted. Alejandro hadn’t slept at all. He hadn’t stopped for a single moment.Everyone was trying their best, working so hard, just to get rid of Seaton. The

    Arianne deliberately ate with gusto. The fragrance from the food was enough to attract a woman with a growling stomach. Soon, Helen gave in and began eating.Arianne let out a sigh of relief, which was engulfed with helplessness at the same time.On the third day, Alejandro sent an update—they had caught Seaton S. Bart.Arianne did not make a personal trip. Mark did not show up either, as he had an emergency at the office. He asked Henry to deal with it. As for Seaton’s fate, it would certainly be much worse than Aery’s. Once a man with zero importance disappears, no one would notice.Aery was facing a long battle ahead. In the beginning, Helen managed to hold on and stay in the hospital every waking hour, but as time went on, she couldn’t hold on any longer. Most importantly, washing up was inconvenient and she refused to show up with a messy appearance. However, she did not continue staying at Tremont Estate but chose a hotel near the hospital.This action was clearly done to ma

    Tiffany broke out into a sly giggle. “Shh, I’m out here without permission! He’s busy in his office right now, so he doesn’t know that I’m outside. Seriously though, I’m a perfectly normal, functional adult! Why can’t I go out shopping sometimes, huh?” she moaned, before adding, “Anyway, do you know how naughty Lil’ P has become the older he gets? He’s doling out migraines to Jackson’s poor mom non-stop through his shenanigans. We’re all starting to think that maybe he was better when he was still a little bean. Sure, that kid rarely stopped bawling, but at least he wasn’t running around like he is right now! God, trying to catch him alone could take a few years away from your life!”“’Sup?” Sylvain suddenly greeted as he approached the women.Tiffany pouted. “Hey, this is a girls’ only, no-man-allowed conversation, mister! Anyway, have some roasted almonds. Freshly-made; it’s so good.”Sylvain took a single almond from the pile and examined it, his eyes belying doubt. “Really? This

    Arianne went into the house after Helen left and gave Mary the sweetened roasted almonds she bought. Mark, who came in after he parked his car, asked, “Was she here to say goodbye?”Arianne feigned nonchalance. “Yeap, but she was gonna leave sooner or later anyway. I happen to hold the opinion that this is the best ending for the two of us. This way, we don’t have obligations to care for each other anymore; we’ll be just like strangers. I’m good, I’ve been like this for years now. It doesn’t bug me one bit.”Mark smiled and ruffled her hair. It was less for comfort and more as a doting gesture. “I’m gonna take a shower.”……In the Cox family’s house, Sylvain and Mr. Cox were watching TV together.It did not matter what was on the television; Sylvain’s attention was not on it. Instead, his mind was pouring all over whatever Mr. Cox could say, so he could promptly dole out an answer after the latter asked anything. Sylvain always became high-strung whenever he was at Robin’s place.

    Ursula was very miffed with his attitude. “You can frame it however you want, but the fact is, I’m your mother. Without me, there’s no you. And right now, I think you’ve got an awfully nice place here; I see no reason why you gotta spend money looking for another accommodation for me. And also? I just got back here, okay? Everything here is new and strange to me, and, well, I haven’t worked any job all these years. So, how on earth do you think I can now? Where? I don’t have any experience at all—there’s no way I can work, no frickin’ way… Speaking of which, aren’t you married to that Robin Cox? Where is she, then? Shouldn’t she come to me right now and say hi to her mom-in-law or something? Seriously, what kind of daughter-in-law wouldn’t come out here and greet me now that I’m here, huh?”Sylvain frowned. “She isn’t staying with me at the moment—but really, can you lay your hands off our relationship, please? I honestly think she has no obligations to see you, anyway. You’re poised

    Sylvain's patience was approaching the end of his tether. The impulse to storm out of the restaurant with Robin was ballooning within him, but still, he pressed it back as hard as he could.Ursula, however, took Sylvain's lack of outward reaction as a victory. Beaming a little, she continued, "Now, I heard from Syl that you two aren't living together. Why is that? Aren't you married to him? Or are you such a homebody that you can't bear to part with your family, huh?"Robin was hardpressed to answer her, but she was well aware that she could never divulge the truth. She could not possibly tell her that one of the Coxes were not exactly approving of Sylvain, could she? Admitting to that was like begging for Ursula to hate her even more. "Um, it's not that…"Sylvain took note of her misery and rescued her by answering his mother himself. "It's because her place is closer to her office, alright? Honestly, does it matter where we live? I'm gonna have to ask you again: lay off your hands

    Arianne had not heard that name for so long, she had to reel back in bemusement for a few seconds before finally remembering her face.Shelly-Ann Leigh… She must have spent all those years in the mental institution, right? God knows if the woman’s hair was now grey and white all over.When someone was near death, one could stand to forgive all of the history between them—even the dark ones, even if the ledger was brimming—for good. So, Arianne replied, “I’ll go with you. No matter what happened, she’s still your mother.”Mark did not expect that answer from her at all. In his surprise, he bent down and left a kiss on her lips. “I knew I picked the right woman as my wife. I thought you wouldn’t agree to let me accompany her for the last of her days…”Arianne replied nothing. She was not so obtuse that she would try to win over a woman whose days were numbered. No matter how much of an a**hole Shelly was, Arianne was still the one who came out on top. That victory was all she needed.

    Arianne sneered. “You confused, little thing. I wouldn’t be daft enough to anger the mother of the man I like if I were you, girl. I would especially not say anything as low IQ as that, too. Let me be completely frank with you: no one who bears the surname of Leigh will ever get the better of me—the last one failed. Hard. I can guarantee that you’ll leave us in the span of three days. If I lose, you can stay here forever. Wanna bet? I dare you.”She left her threat hanging at that and turned her wheelchair away, leaving the scorned young woman behind.Rage came out of Raven as waves of quakes all over her body. She was lurching close to hyperventilation, but right before it became impossible to stop, she came around and battled herself to calm down. She had a feeling that even if she fainted right there and then, no one would discover her, would they?Now that Arianne and Mark had returned, the Tremont Estate had recovered its vivacity and life. It had become merry.And Raven Leigh

    Melissa was the type who always pushed things to go as festive as logically possible. She leaped to her feet and raised her cup, “Yo, everyone! Let’s toast to Cindy becoming my cousin-in-law!”The crowd answered enthusiastically with their cups in the air and a roar—except Raven, who remained seated. “I have a sickly constitution. I can’t drink. I’m sorry.”Her smile was so mechanical, her face too ashen. Something flickered in Arianne’s eyes before she replied, “Sure.”After the revelry faded, Arianne steered her wheelchair to the courtyard. The outward appearance of the Tremont Estate seemed to have frozen in time, which was why being here made her feel so… safe.Of course, that was despite Henry and Mary’s passing. In the end, time passed and things changed, characters and objects came and went, and all these missing years left lingering regrets in their wake.Arianne espied the silhouette standing alone at a distance and approached her, sighing, “Nothing beats being home.”Ra

    Arianne grabbed the two beauties by the hands and smiled. “Thank you! Gosh, to me… it’s like you two have grown older in the blink of an eye! How gorgeous the two of you are! Cindy, where’s your brother? Plato hasn’t come home yet?”Mentioning the name of her dear brother made Cynthia pout. “He said he was coming home half a month ago—that’s what he said. Who knows what he’s actually doing, though? Anyway, who cares about that no-good. He’s always like this anyway. Oh, um, the weather is quite hot. We should probably get inside.”Arianne nodded and shot a brief, uneasy look at Aristotle. Not once did he look like he wanted to talk to her… Could the boy be counting his grievances in his mind? Mark and Arianne had stayed in Switzerland for so long; life must have been hard for him all alone.It took until she reached the living room to finally notice Raven. “Millie, is this your younger sister?”Melissa quickly sprung to correct her. “What? Noooo. This is Ares’ classmate or something

    Aristotle’s entire being stilled.He had waited for this news for nineteen years. As time passed, the flames died little by little, the heart grew more numb, until the very thought of it was no different from a pipe dream. But today, news of it coming true reached him and plunged him into a torrent of feelings.A long while later, he finally muttered under his breath, “When… When will they be back?”Jackson closed the distance between them and gave the young man a light, comforting pat on the shoulders. “Not so soon, I bet; not when your mother has just woken up and is in need of some time to recover. She did sleep for nineteen years, you know. So maybe after she’s recuperated enough for a while…” he answered. “We’ve waited for nineteen years for this, right? What’s waiting for just a little bit more compared to that? The most important thing for you to do is to manage the company to the best of your abilities. That’s the way to not disappoint your father’s expectation.”Aristotle

    Cynthia had never had a relationship before, so she did not know what love was. However, one thing was for certain. She loved the feeling of being with Aristotle and how he had protected her since they were kids. Even though Aristotle had become a little domineering and “naughty”, she was not taken aback by him. Instead, she even felt a little moved, which was amazing.It wasn’t known how they ended up in bed, with their breaths synchronized. Apart from the final step, they had done just about everything else that could be done.Just as they were about to hit the final step, Aristotle suddenly stopped and helped pull the covers over Cynthia. “Let’s sleep, good night.”Cynthia was still lost in a daze from before. She did not know why Aristotle had suddenly stopped, nor did she have the courage to ask him. She had struggled for so long before having persuaded herself to go with the flow…The next day, when Cynthia woke up, Aristotle had already long gone to his company.She took a

    Cynthia heard what Aristotle said, but her hands did not stop doing what they were doing. Her head was in a complete mess. “There’s no… no need. I’ll be able to be done with these now. Go ahead and get some sleep first. By the way, where am I sleeping tonight? There are so many rooms here, I’ll ask Agnes to help me clear one up.”Aristotle walked up to her and squatted. He grabbed onto her arm with one hand while the other closed the luggage. “Just sleep with me here and stop tidying already.”Cynthia suspected that she might have misheard. She took a look at the big bed behind him in a daze and suddenly felt her palm, which was held by him, burning up. “Y… You’re kidding, aren’t you, Ares? Although we used to sleep with each other a lot when we were kids, we’re all grown ups now, so wouldn’t that be a little inappropriate?”Aristotle said with a straight face, “I wasn't joking.”Cynthia panicked a little and recalled Melissa’s words once again. ‘Would Ares, whom I’ve known for so

    Melissa knew that Aristotle had kissed Cynthia, so she knew what was going on. Hence, she very naturally boasted, “Of course, they’ve been engaged to each other since they were born. Coincidentally, the both of them felt the same way about each other as they grew up, so wouldn’t this make it even better? From the way I see it, your illness isn’t going to recover for the rest of your life and the both of them are probably going to have to wait until Cindy graduates before they get married. So, you’d be better off moving back to France as early as possible. Don’t worry, you’ve saved Aristotle’s life before, so he wouldn’t be stingy with you financially.”Raven wanted to control the unhappiness she had in her heart very much, but her emotions refused to follow her will. Hence, she fiercely struggled to wring free from Melissa’s grasp. Melissa was startled for a moment. “Are you crazy?”After that, Raven regained her senses and took a deep breath. “I’m sorry… I was a little unwell just n

    ‘You’re not that worried?’ Melissa was so furious that she laughed. “Am I the only one who’s being worried for nothing? I thought you loved my brother, didn’t you? The man you’ve been dreaming of every day has returned from France but brought a woman with him, yet you’re actually not that worried? Let’s put aside your parents’ intentions for a moment. Do you dare to say that you don’t love him? I’m only helping you because you’re my best friend, so could you not be so relaxed, as if I’m helping you for no reason?”Cynthia shook her head and lowered her volume as she said, “He… might have confessed to me. We also… did that already. So, I think he doesn’t feel that way towards Raven. It’s purely because she saved his life once. I trust that Ares will be able to handle the situation properly.”Melissa’s eyes opened wide. “What? He’s only returned for a few days, yet the two of you have already had sex? That fast?! I never knew it, but you’ve really got it in you!”Cynthia’s face flushe
