Rosalie replied, "You had a bad dream last night and kept calling Youngie's name."Vincent's grip tightened over the spoon he was holding so hard his knuckles popped up."Who's Youngie?"Rosalie was sure Youngie was his girlfriend or someone special to him. All she knew was that he looked to be in much pain when he called out Youngie's name in his nightmare.That look of pain seemed as though the girl named Youngie was no longer around.Vincent remained seemingly emotionless, but his gaze shifted as he said indifferently, "The next time I have a nightmare, keep away from me and leave me be.""Oh, okay."Rosalie was about to sit down when realization dawned upon her.Why would there be a next time?She chuckled awkwardly. "It's good that you're fine now. I'll leave right after lunch. Don't worry, there won't be a next time."He saved her and got injured. She was worried that something might happen to him, so she stayed the night to keep watch over him.Since he was fine, she
She didn't know this man well, despite him saving her and her feeling grateful toward him.Even so, it didn't mean that he could raise such a ridiculous request."My motive is simple. Ten thousand dollars and a week of your time." Vincent leaned back casually against the chair and said, "Or you could just give me ten billion dollars."Rosalie said solemnly, "I don't have ten billion dollars.""If you don't, then let's make it ten thousand dollars and a week of your time. If you can't afford either option, I'd have saved you in vain and I'll kill you."His voice sounded like a rumble in the night, dangerous and with a tinge of wickedness.He felt like a serpent hidden in the night, silently attacking his next victim in a way that made one shudder in fright.Rosalie suddenly felt uneasy. She didn't know if it was in hindsight or because this man changed way too fast. He had just blocked a bullet for her at the risk of his life.After coming here, he even let her drive his car off
"Are you scared?" Vincent said as his eyes narrowed. "In that case, you can eliminate this option, because you're scared to die."He put down his gun. "You're now left with two options. One is to give me one billion dollars and another is to give me ten thousand dollars and one week of your time. Ms. Young, you'll have to choose between these two options. Leaving this place isn't an option you can take."Rosalie didn't expect to see this side of his, but then again, she didn't know him well enough and naturally didn't expect him to be someone like this.When he saved her, blocking her from the bullet at the risk of his life, she thought he just looked scary. She didn't expect it to go beyond just appearances."Can I find someone to take care of you? I can find the best nanny or a professional doctor.""I don't want any of them. I want you." Vincent's face looked pale, but his aura remained imposing. Rosalie asked anxiously, "Why must you insist on me taking care of you?""I'm
The mention of Youngie's name made Vincent's eyes go dim. A vicious look flashed past his eyes.He grabbed her face and spat out through gritted teeth, "Don't talk about her!"He used so much force it felt as though he could crush her face to pieces.Youngie seemed very important to him indeed, Rosalie thought.Vincent suddenly released her face, clutched his chest, and took a few steps back.Rosalie reached out to hold him, but at the thought of what he just did to her, she retracted her hands, still feeling slightly miffed."We're not done with lunch yet," Vincent said as he stumbled to the dining hall.Rosalie exhaled out loud, almost losing her balance.After a long time, she finally managed to compose herself and crouched down to pick up the things on the floor and stuff them back into her bag.She glanced at Vincent and saw him walking to the dining hall. She walked cautiously to the door, intending to open the door and leave.But the moment she tried to push the handle
Rosalie felt very anxious as she looked worriedly at Vincent."Quick, tell me."She looked at the first-aid kit filled with medication and tools. Although she felt scared, she had no choice but to take on the challenge given how critical things were right now.Vincent trembled slightly as he asked Rosalie in a weak voice. "Are you scared?"Rosalie nodded her head. Her heart was pounding as she started to tense up."Yes, I am, but I'll do it. Quick, tell me how."Vincent went on in a weak voice, "Get a bottle of iodine solution and an alcoholic cotton ball. Soak the cotton ball with iodine solution and use it to wipe the skin area around the wound."Rosalie followed Vincent's instructions very carefully as she twisted the iodine solution bottle open with trembling fingers.The smell of the iodine solution made her head spin, but she suppressed her instinctive response and focused on the next step.She carefully dipped the cotton ball into the bottle and carefully wiped the skin
Rosalie gritted her teeth and tried to overcome the fear in her heart as she continued twisting the disinfected needle to clean the inside of the wound.Each move she made caused Vincent to grit his teeth in pain, but he refused to let a sound escape his lips.His tolerance level was frighteningly high.After this step was done, Vincent said, "Take another bottle of saline solution and some gauze. Use the saline solution to clean the wound before wiping it dry with the gauze.Rosalie grabbed the first-aid kit anxiously and twisted the bottle of saline solution open with trembling hands.She carefully poured the saline solution over the wound and then used the gauze to gently wipe the wound, cleaning out all the gunk while making sure to do it very gently and thoroughly.As the wound was slowly cleansed, the pain ebbed away and Vincent's breathing finally returned to normal.He looked deeply at Rosalie, his eyes glinting like the stars in the night sky."Will this do? What else
After over ten hours.Sebastian was carrying the baby in his arms and feeding him milk."Darling, is it yummy?"Stevie, I suspect Mommy is with Theodore again."Daddy is feeling upset. But don't worry, Daddy will find a way to snatch Mommy back. The three of us will be together forever. No one will be able to separate us."Sebastian smirked coldly.Just then, one of his subordinates dressed in black hurried over and whispered into Sebastian's ear, "Sir, we found where Theodore stays. It's at…""Got it."After his subordinate took his leave, Sebastian coaxed the baby to sleep and put him back into the cot."Stevie, Daddy has found Theodore and I'm going to find him right now. Don't worry, I'll definitely bring Mommy back. I won't allow them to be together, or Theodore must die!"After the baby fell asleep, Sebastian left home.-As night fell, Theodore returned to the villa hand in hand with Aurora.Aurora was on a call. "Alright, till I get back then!"After Aurora hung u
"Don't be scared."Theodore turned to open the door. Aurora followed right behind him.When they arrived at the living room, they saw Sebastian seated on the couch, peeling an apple.A few armed men in black were standing right next to him.Upon hearing Theodore enter, Sebastian turned around and glanced at him. He noticed the woman next to Theodore and their tightly held hands.Sebastian smirked coldly. "You two look like a couple. I even heard that your girlfriend is pregnant."Aurora was frightened, but she mustered up the courage to remark, "You're illegally trespassing private property.""You're right, I am."Sebastian put the apple and the knife down and slowly stood up."Theodore Spencer, you already have another woman. Why are you still trying to snatch my wife from me? You're shameless!"Theodore furrowed his brows. "Does Rose know that you're here?""Of course not," Sebastian said as he walked toward Theodore. "Just as I don't know where you led my wife to. So I'm
