Yosef fell silent for a moment. Then, exhaling a puff of smoke, he called out towards the door. Kirin immediately pushed it open.
"Mr. Nelson, any orders?" Kirin asked promptly.
"Release her," Yosef instructed.
"Release?!" Kirin's widened eyes revealed a hint of shock, yet he had to comply with Mr. Nelson's command.
Approaching Diana, Kirin's sharp gaze briefly scanned her as he reached to unlock the chain around her ankle.
Diana, more surprised than Kirin, had just casually spoken and didn't expect this lunatic to actually comply. Could it be... he was serious?!
Momentarily stunned, Diana quickly regained composure. While this turn of events was surreal, it was a lot better than the brute's aggressive approach towards her earlier. At least there was room for maneuvering.
Rubbing her sore ankle, she raised her gaze, subtly inspecting Kirin's neck. The distance between them. When he came to release her hands, she wondered
Carl looked at Roy, speaking, "Uncle Roy, don't get agitated. The family head surely has his reasons. You should listen to what he has to say." "Haven't you seen his attitude?! I'm an elder. By treating me like this, how can I... ah!!" Before Roy could finish his sentence, he received a sudden whip across his face. It tore his skin open! Clutching his face, he turned, seeing the woman next to Yosef, cold determination written all over her face. "Who do you think you are, daring to strike me?!!" Roy's fury was evident. The onlookers were shocked. How could someone dare to strike him?! Yosef raised his gaze. On his pale, sickly face, there was a faint expression. Then, he raised his hand, gesturing to an associate beside him. "Close the doors." The person immediately went over and shut the mansion's doors, even drawing the curtains. In the spacious hall, the sparkling crysta
Fred paused, a shadow crossing his face. "Yosef, if your mother were still here, she wouldn't want to see you like this." With that, he bowed his head, coughing violently. Carl approached, supporting him. "Grandpa, let's head back." Fred nodded and walked toward the door. Just as Carl was about to follow, he stopped abruptly. Looking at Yosef, a handsome and refined man, a trace of worry crept onto his face. "Family head, your health should not be aggravated by anger. Take care of yourself." Yosef's gaze turned icy. "You don't need to play the gentle soul in front of me. Leave!" Carl lowered his head. "You've misunderstood me." He turned and left. Outside, two helicopters awaited them. Carl glanced around and spotted Natalie, her expression cold and aloof. He approached her. "If I recall correctly, you're Miss Natalie, right?" Natalie gave him a glance but remained silent.
Kevin's expression faltered. He knew it! She wanted to escape his brother's clutches! A pang of sorrow crossed Kevin's face. Novels mirrored reality. She'd flee, he'd chase; he'd cage her with love, wanting to keep her, but she'd struggle and be unable to break free, both ending up battered and bruised. At that thought, Kevin clenched his fists. No, he couldn't let his brother go mad with love. "Woman," a small hand tugged at Diana's dress. She looked down to see Kevin, dead serious. "Don't worry. I'll talk to my brother, make him release you. We'll go back tomorrow!" "What if your brother disagrees?" Diana asked. "I have a plan," Kevin whispered. "You'll pretend to kidnap me, use me as leverage to make my brother let you go." Diana was taken aback, then a gentle smile curved her lips. She pinched Kevin's cheek. "You mischievous kid, why are you so adorable?" Kevin blushed, feeling a surge of elation. Nestling into Dian
Her familiar voice accompanied by interference reached him. It struck John's chest, making his heart pound violently. But she had only spoken two words. The signal abruptly cut off. No more information. Trying the number again, he received an out-of-service notification. John's gaze subtly changed. Gripping the phone, a coldness emerged on his icy face. He stood up from the chair, looking at the man in military uniform in front of him. "General, we'll continue our conversation later." General Coleman nodded, "Was that call just now..." "My fiancée." John's voice was indifferent. Turning away, he walked out of the room. As soon as he stepped outside, he immediately gave orders. "Prepare the computer and equipment; I need to trace a call." Jacob was surprised. John personally tracking someone? Could it be... "John, is it news from Dian
After that, he turned and walked towards the door. Once outside, all emotions vanished from his eyes, replaced by his usual indifference. He ordered, "Gather the mercenaries, prepare the helicopter. Tonight, we depart for the vacation villa." Though the possibility was small, their location might be compromised. Meanwhile, in Rainbow City, John successfully traced Diana's phone call to that island. The island! John's cold eyes glanced at the computer screen marking the location. He turned to face General Coleman on the other side of the table. "I remember, General, you said you'd do your best if I needed help with this matter." "That's true." "Then I need the military force under your command." General Coleman hesitated for a moment, then nodded slowly. "When?" "Now." John closed the laptop, a glint in his eyes. General Coleman paused for a moment before saying, "This is our agreement wit
Good. Very good. She just apologized, and now she's running away. Did this woman really think he had a good temper?! He picked up his phone, "Capture her, if she resists... break one of her legs." Adding a final remark, "Don't take her life." At that moment, Kirin and Natalie, near the helicopter pad, received Yosef's command. They immediately responded, "Yes!" Ending the call, Natalie swiftly got on a nearby motorcycle. Kirin was concerned, "Can we catch up to her now?" "Amphibious motorboat is no match for motorcycle, and I know a shortcut. I'm confident... we can catch her!" Natalie's eyes narrowed as she revved the motorcycle, speeding away. This time, she was determined to make that woman pay! Diana, on the amphibious motorboat, enjoying the thrill, suddenly heard the roar of a motorcyclebehind her. So fast? Diana furrowed her brows slightly and, turning her h
"Are you trying to kill her?" Though phrased as a question, it carried an unmistakable certainty. Natalie's eyes widened. "I didn't! Mr. Nelson, I was just following your orders!" Yosef, with an icy gaze, stared at her. His narrow eyes sharpened like the keenest blades, dissecting her piece by piece. Natalie's gaze flickered with a momentary guilt. Yosef spoke slowly, "Natalie, you're lying." Simultaneously, the hand squeezing her neck tightened its grip. "Mr. Nelson, I'm doing this for you..." Natalie bit her lip, a hint of resentment in her eyes. "Mr. Nelson, I don't understand... she's the enemy, why treat her like this?" "Why?" Yosef spoke with a cold tone, his eyes filled with a deadly intent. "I was just..." His words trailed off as a sudden expression of pain crossed his face. Then, the hand gripping Natalie's neck loosened. He clutched his chest, a few violent coughs escap
Natalie's eyes flickered with a burning flame. This drug wasn't for just anyone. She, Kirin, and Godber were the chosen few. If the body couldn't match the drug's effects, there was only one outcome... Death! One in a thousand chance. She refused to believe Diana could survive! Natalie: This time, this bi*ch was doomed! "Even if I die, I'll slaughter you first!" Diana stood up, her voice icy. Dragging her injured leg forward, she was about to approach when she suddenly felt intense pain. Pain... Excruciating pain! Diana furrowed her brows, staggering a few steps, grabbing onto a nearby chair in agony. Rolling on the ground. As if her bones were being gnawed by ants, rendering her unable to stand. "Kill me? Haha... you probably won't get that chance!" Seeing her agonized state, a huge smile appeared on Natalie's face. Enduring the intense pai
At another table, Frank sat staring at Liam in his smart suit, his brow slightly furrowed."Hey, been causing trouble lately?"Liam rolled his eyes, displeased. "No.""What's with the haircut then? Going for the military look?""My mom made me." Liam sipped his champagne. "She thought my old hairstyle looked too thug-like for Uncle John's wedding, so she took matters into her own hands.""No worries, I think this look suits you."Beside him, Rose tilted her head, looking at him with adoration."You know what? I think any look suits you, I just really like you.""Cough~"Liam choked a bit.He cleared his throat, "Don't say such things in front of everyone.""Sure, sorry~" Rose nodded obediently.Frank thought to himself, Damn. Even my bro's nephew is showing off in front of me? Can't let this slide!He turned to Jenny with a mischievous grin."Jenny, do you think my hairstyle looks good
Upon arriving, she put her hands on her hips, adopting an accusatory posture."Look at this, I left for just a moment, and you're already being targeted by women. How can I ever feel safe letting you go out?"John's deep gaze slightly lowered. "And you?"Diana looked down at the Red Rose in her hand, feeling a bit guilty."Uh..." She reached out and presented the rose to John: "It's for you."John remained silent.Instead, the little baby in his arms stretched out a hand, grabbed the Red Rose, and then happily held it in her arms.Diana chuckled, pinching the little baby's soft cheek."Oh, our Tiger likes flowers~"The little baby stretched out her short arms toward Kevin, earnestly offering him the flower.The little baby handed the flower to him!Diana was astonished."My goodness, Tiger, you can't even speak and you're already trying to win over little boys?!"Truly her daughter!Kev
Kevin pulled on his turtle shell bag strap, seriously said: "I really have to go now, remember, my name is Kevin Nelson."Saying that, he turned his head and was ready to leave."Wait a moment."Kevin stopped in his tracks, turned his head, looked at him with a complex gaze.What...Did his brother remember something, or was he reluctant to part with him?Yosef picked up a Red Rose beside him."This, take it."Kevin was somewhat surprised: "Give it to me? But I'm a man, why would you give me a rose?""It's not for you."Yosef handed the flower to him, glanced at the distant girl, and said: "It's for her."Kevin: "...I just told you, my sister has a husband and a child, are you still not giving up?"Kevin thought: Oh, no! My brother may falls again in the same place after losing his memory!"What are you talking about." Yosef interrupted his thoughts: "I didn't think about pursuing her."
Kevin let himself be led by Yosef's hand, and they both sat on the swing in front of the flower shop.Once seated, the little kid beside Yosef didn't make a sound.He wore a bowl cut hairstyle, carried a big turtle shell backpack, and lowered his head, lost in thought.Yosef occasionally glanced over at him.After a while, he couldn't remind silence any more."You..."Hearing his voice, Kevin immediately turned his head, his eyes sparkling as he looked at him.Full of anticipation.Yosef slowly opened his mouth: "This outfit... who bought it for you?""My brother, what about it?""To be honest, your brother's taste isn't great." Looking at the little one's green onesie, Yosef slightly frowned, "Ugly."Kevin: ……This outfit was something Kevin had insisted on buying for his fifth birthday.He also bought a larger size for Yosef, as matching brother outfits.Although Yosef never wore it,
Hearing this, Kevin covered his mouth: "You mean... my brother's mind is damaged?"Godber corrected: "This is called mental issues.""Isn't that the same thing?"Godber: ...It seems so.Diana frowned. "Yosef lost his memory? With so many enemies, your situation should be unfavorable now, right?"Godber: "Mr. Nelson had already anticipated this. Before completely losing his memory, he divided the remaining power of the Nelson family into three parts, assigning them to the other three members of the Nelson family to keep each other in check, while he decided to retire due to health reasons."Kirin nodded. "So, currently, apart from us and Patrick, no one else in the Nelson family knows Mr. Nelson has lost his memory, thinking he's stepping down due to health reasons."Kevin asked: "Then where is my brother now?"Kirin glanced at Diana and John beside him, hesitating whether to speak.But then he heard John calmly say: "Gri
John's voice had a lazy, sexy edge."Sleep a bit more.""...Okay."Diana turned over, adjusting to a comfortable position, leaning into his embrace.Just as she was about to drift off, she felt the hand on her waist start to move along her curves.Wherever it touched, it ignited sparks.Diana's eyes flew open, and she turned her head.Behind her, John still had his eyes closed, his expression as calm as if he were asleep.But the hand under the covers was very much awake.This beast.Diana turned around and bit his Adam's apple.John frowned slightly, then opened his eyes.His deep gaze locked onto the girl in his arms.As if capturing prey, with a wild possessiveness.Diana knew that look well.It was the same look he gave her last night.She squinted. "Again?"His response was another wave of kisses....Diana became an overnight sensation without an
Reeves turned back and glared at Morse.Wanting to say something to retort against this guy.But he found... There was nothing to say...He looked at the cold and noble man beside Diana and felt an extremely complex mix of emotions.From the moment this man appeared, he knew he had lost.Lost utterly.John slightly lifted his eyes and swept them over Reeves holding roses.Facing the man's icy and profound gaze, Reeves felt somewhat nervous.Just as he thought John would question him, he saw John casually withdraw his gaze and look at the girl beside him."Do you like it?"Reeves: ... This man actually completely ignored me!Being ignored hurt Reeves' pride even more than being questioned!It meant that this man simply didn't regard Reeves as a threat!Unable to help himself, Reeves said."Are you Miss Thompson's fiancé?"Hearing this, Morse behind him covered his eyes with his ha
Hearing this, Frank approached her and whispered, "Big sis, think it through. This guy doesn't seem too smart; having him around might lower our overall standard.""Don't worry, if you can work well in the studio, so can he."Frank: ???Reeves beamed with joy: "Then, Miss Thompson, please accept my flowers first. When I join the Blue Rose Studio, we can get to know each other better.""I welcome you to Blue Rose as a designer, but I can't accept your flowers or feelings.""Why?""Because I already have someone I love."Reeves: ......He opened his mouth slightly, then his expression fell."Who is it?"Reeves scanned the group behind Diana one by one.A bunch of top-notch handsome guys and beautiful girls almost blinded him.This...Each one was very likely!Reeves had a complex expression on his face: "May I ask impertinently, the person you like, is it a man or a woman?"Diana:
Faced with the relentless questions from the reporters, Diana remained calm.She nodded."The name Blue Rose does hold a special meaning for me. As for Reeves, I'm not familiar with him; I have nothing to say.""Miss Thompson, you're so young and accomplished; how about your love life? Do you have a boyfriend?"Hearing this, Ben immediately stepped forward."This is Diana's privacy; we refuse to answer!"The reporters were taken aback for a moment.Everyone stared at Ben wearing a hat; suddenly, excitement surged: "Isn’t this Big Star Fly? Why did he suddenly appear here?"Someone seemed to realize something."Could it be that Fly and Thompson are a couple?!""You're talking nonsense! Diana is my biological sister; stop spouting rubbish here! And this is my girlfriend!"Saying that, Ben pulled Liora over and tightly grasped her hand."This is my girlfriend; Diana is my sister, got it?!"Hearin
