Warren's eyes darkened.

He knew how important the chip technology data was for the Larkin Corporation.

He had spent five years and billions of dollars on the research and development of those chips. Only then could he fight against Milania's monopoly of the chip industry.

If he lost the data, their future products may not be able to be released into the market. This would mean a major loss.

Warren immediately set his phone down. He walked into the study and logged onto the computer network to investigate the missing data.

When Ethan and Jazzie entered, they found him frowning at his computer.

Even though he heard them come in, Warren didn't even look up, nor did his fingers pause on the keyboard.

Seeing him like this, Ethan immediately knew that something had happened. He walked over and asked, "Did something happen at the company?"

Warren's deep voice was still a little hoarse. "Someone attacked our firewall, and we lost our chip technology data."

"Fuck!" Ethan swore. "They'r

    "Ethan, why the fuck are you still gaming? Can't you let me sleep?'Jazzie rubbed her face against his thighs, and her hot breath fanned over Ethan's abdomen.An electrifying tingle instantly spread through his body.Ethan stopped typing and smoothed his hand over Jazzie's hair. He lowered his voice and said, "Alright, I'll be quieter. Go back to sleep."When she heard that voice, Jazzie was even more certain that she was lying on her own sofa at home, and that her head was cushioned by her pig plushie.She brazenly wrapped her arms around Ethan's waist and rubbed her warm cheeks against his thighs. "If you make any more noise, I'll kill you," she mumbled.However, her movements made it hard for Ethan to focus on his task.He looked down at the woman lying in his lap, and his gaze fell on her mouth which never seemed to stop yapping.There was a brief moment where he wanted to suck those lips between his own. He wanted to find out if her mouth tasted as spicy as her searing wor

    As Ethan spoke, he gently caressed the side of Jazzie's face.He slowly tipped his face closer to hers. His affectionate gaze glittered, and his lips were curved into a faint smile.His warm breath fanned across her face, making her heart race.Just as their lips were about to touch, Jazzie suddenly came back to her senses. She blocked Ethan's lips with her hand and said, "You bastard, you were trying to take advantage of me. Dream on!"Ethan cocked an eyebrow at her. "Did you think I wanted you to kiss me in return?""Wasn't that it?"Ethan laughed quietly. "I was going to ask you to cook for me as repayment. But if you want to switch to that instead, I'm happy to accept."With that, he leaned down to kiss her.Frightened, Jazzie struggled out from his arms. Blushing madly, she said, "Keep dreaming! Wait here. I'll go downstairs to see if there's any food."With that, she turned around and left.As Ethan watched the door swing shut, he touched his lips and smiled. "You dummy

    With that, Dwayne reached for Evelyn.Evelyn quickly shot up in bed and kicked him in the crotch.Dwayne cried out in pain. He clutched his crotch and spun around in circles.His blond-haired friend, Brad, immediately ran over. He raised his arm to slap Evelyn across the face. "You stupid bitch, you should be grateful that my friend wants you. If you stay with him, you'll live a good life. Yet, you dare to reject him. Do you have a death wish?"Evelyn saw stars from how hard she was slapped. Blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.Dwayne kicked Brad in the butt, cursing. "Get the fuck away. I like feisty women like her. It just makes her hotter."He reached out to wipe the blood from Evelyn's mouth, but she hit him again.She knew that she would suffer the consequences if she continued trying to fight with these men.She had to think of a way to buy time so that Warren could come to her aid.She abruptly put on a weary expression. Looking tearfully at Dwayne, she said in a

    Evelyn jumped down from the bed and ran into Warren's arms. "Warren."The two of them had nearly been parted by death. Their hearts were bleeding with a pain that they couldn't describe with words.The words they wanted to say caught in their throats as they hugged each other tightly.Warren gazed at Evelyn with wet eyes, kissing her forehead repeatedly.He could feel Evelyn's body heat and warm breaths. He knew this wasn't a dream; this was reality.He had really found his Evelyn.She was alive."Evelyn, I'm so sorry I'm late."Tears spilled down Evelyn's face. "Warren, Clara kicked me multiple times, and I don't know how long I spent at sea. I'm terrified. I'm terrified that I lost our baby."Clara had put a lot of force behind her kicks. Each time, she aimed her foot at Evelyn's abdomen.At the time, she had already felt a pain in her belly. Not to mention, she had floated at sea for so long, and she was still in the risky stage of her pregnancy.Any of those reasons coul

    Warren held Evelyn's hand and placed it by his lips. He kept kissing it.Hot tears swirled around in his eyes.He didn't know how to describe what he felt at that moment. Warren wondered if he was happy because he survived a disaster or because he regained something he thought he had lost.He had even reached the point of thinking about how to console Evelyn if the baby was lost.Evelyn was so relieved that she couldn't speak for quite some time.She simply sat there as her tears rolled down her cheeks.No one knew how much time had passed before she parted her dry lips. She said, "Warren, I didn't lose the baby. When Clara kicked me, I used my arm to shield myself. I'm a good mother. I protected my baby."Hearing those words, Warren felt as though something had stabbed his heart. Immense pain rippled throughout his body.He didn't need to be a genius to know that Evelyn had endured a lot to protect the baby. Warren held Evelyn tightly in his arms and kept kissing the top of he

    Evelyn was still weak. She leaned against Simon and cried so much that she eventually fell asleep.Seeing how sickly thin she was and recalling what she said earlier, Simon had a bad feeling. He gently caressed Evelyn's head. He was so heartbroken that his eyes turned bloodshot."Evie, did you figure something out?"After Evelyn returned home, her tensed body suddenly relaxed completely. She spent most of two whole days asleep.Although she was unconscious, Evelyn knew that many had visited her. She heard Jazzie scolding her while crying. She also felt Bonnie holding her hand while sobbing.Evelyn wanted to open her eyes to look at them. Unfortunately, it felt as though her eyes were glued shut. She couldn't open them, no matter how hard she tried.It was so bad that she couldn't differentiate between her dreams and reality.She saw herself resting on her father's back. She also saw how Xena caused her to attempt suicide by jumping into the lake. At the time, Simon cried while h

    Warren arched his brows when he looked at Chet. After that, he said, "That depends on how you behave. She's my wife and listens to every word I say."What Warren was implying was rather obvious. Chet would have to go through Warren if he wanted Evelyn to accept him as her brother.Chet wasn't happy about that, but he put an earnest smile on his face.He leaned closer to Warren and whispered, "That won't be a problem at all. Just tell me your request, and I will do it, my baby brother-in-law."Chet deliberately put heavy emphasis on the word "baby." A smug smile lit up on his face.Warren was taken aback when he heard that.He stared at Chet for a couple of seconds before he chuckled and replied, "You expect me to call you my big brother? You may have to wait until the next lifetime."Chet remained calm and replied, "Don't be so sure yet. Sooner or later, you will have to regard me as your big brother."Warren gritted his teeth angrily when he saw how smug Chet was.Just then,

    Every word Linda spoke conveyed Warren's trust in her and disdain for Evelyn. She was suggesting that he didn't even want to come in person to visit Simon.Evelyn could tell what Linda was thinking. A faint, cold smile curved at the corner of her lips.She took out her phone from her bag, looked at Linda, and said, "Is that so? Then, I should personally call Mr. Larkin to thank him for remembering my father's kindness toward him."After she finished speaking, she started pretending to make a phone call.Linda immediately spoke up to stop her. "Mr. Larkin is very busy and currently in a meeting, so please do not disturb him.""Is it that he's busy, or is it that you don't want him to know you're visiting my father without his permission?"Linda realized that her thoughts were seen through by Evelyn, so she decided not to pretend anymore.A slight smirk appeared at the corner of her mouth. "Evelyn, back then, you took so much from Warren without regard for his well-being. Your hea

    Evelyn immediately took out a piece of tissue to help Simon wipe away his tears. She said softly, "Dad, I know you have a lot you want to say to Ms. Dawson, so please wake up soon. We're all waiting for you."Simon's eyelashes fluttered slightly, as if he was agreeing to the promise.After that, Erica took out silver needles from her bag and inserted them into the acupuncture points on Simon's head.…One hour later, the first acupuncture session was complete.Evelyn asked with some concern, "Ms. Dawson, how is my dad?"Erica was tidying up while speaking, "His condition is better than I expected. At this rate, he should be showing more obvious responses in about a week."Hearing these words, Evelyn looked at her excitedly. "Really? That's great! My dad has hope now!"Ms. Dawson, you've been running around all day. Let me take you to eat first, then you can rest at the hotel."Just as she finished speaking, Simon grabbed Erica's hand.Seeing this scene, Evelyn's eyes widened

    The room suddenly became so quiet that they could even hear each other's breathing.Tears welled up in Erica's eyes as she stared at Simon. She only went to his bedside, taking a few difficult steps, after several minutes.Erica gently placed her fingertips on Simon's wrist as tears fell onto his arm.Watched her unusual reaction, Evelyn finally remembered where she had seen Erica before.There was a picture of a women hidden in Simon's private photo album. If Evelyn wasn't mistaken, that woman is Erica.Simon had kept that photo all along, while Erica teared up upon seeing him. This kind of thing usually happened between couples.When Evelyn thought about it, she suddenly understood everything.Erica was someone Simon had been in love with many years ago. The unfortunate couple was separated initially because of Xena's scheme.Evelyn walked slowly to the bedside, patted Erica on the shoulder, and asked, "Do you know my dad, Dr. Dawson?"Erica wiped away her tears and sighed.

    Erica was dressed very plainly, but her delicate features still stood out. The red mole near the corner of her eye felt especially familiar to Evelyn.Her first thought was that she had definitely seen Erica somewhere before.She calmly approached with a smile and said, "Dr. Dawson, we're here to fetch you to treat my father."Erica greeted them with a smile. "Come inside and have some water first. I'll go pack up, and we can leave in a short while."They followed her and entered the courtyard once more.While packing her things, Erica asked, "So, which one of you is Sophie's friend?"William, who had always been carefree and uninhibited, immediately stood up and respectfully said to Erica, "It's me. I met her in Zyldrica."Erica looked him up and down, her eyes revealing a hint of delight. "You seem very handsome and look spirited, young man."William's smile was somewhat stiff. It was the first time someone had ever complimented him, and he didn't know how to react.When fac

    Evelyn stepped forward and said, "But Warren and the others have been doing everything they can to find you and get you out."Alfred shook his head. "If I leave, that bastard will know that you all have discovered his secret. All your subsequent plans will fail."I'm staying here since he won't do anything to me anyway. I still have something I haven't given him yet. How else do you think I've lived until now?"You all should leave quickly. Just pretend nothing happened. My granddaughter and I will handle that jerk ourselves.""Mr. Miller Senior—"Evelyn wanted to say something else, but Nathan, who was behind her, grabbed her abruptly.He furrowed his brow and looked at Alfred. "Evelyn, Mr. Miller Senior is right. If he leaves, Warren's plan will be ruined. Don't worry, I'll assign someone to keep an eye on this place and make sure nothing will happen to him."Evelyn was eager to save Alfred so that Warren could launch a full-scale attack on Russell. Only then could they reunit

    Elma shook her head in disbelief. "That's impossible. You're talking nonsense. My dad was killed by Chester long ago. The person who killed him is not Sir."Evelyn gave a calm smile. "He says he's protecting you, but in reality, he has always treated you as a pawn to control Iris. Otherwise, your mother wouldn't risk her life so willingly for him."I could never understand why Iris would obey someone so willingly. But then I met you, and everything became clear to me."Have you never wondered why your mother looks so much like Mrs. Larkin? That person definitely won't tell you that they are twin sisters."You're also the one keeping an eye on this old man's biological daughter. That person has known about this secret for a long time but has kept it from Iris to fully control her."Whether it's your father, Ronald, or your mother, Iris, their tragic lives were all caused by that 'Sir' you mentioned. Do you want to follow in their footsteps?"Hearing these words, Elma glared at Eve

    The gears lunged toward them, like a giant shark with its jaws wide open.Just then, Nathan suddenly held Evelyn in his arms. In a low and hoarse voice filled with suppressed emotion, he called out softly, "Evie."His grip around her was tight. It felt as if he wanted to fuse Evelyn into himself. At the same time, he pressed a button that was a disgusting shade of yellow with his other hand.Everyone was wide-eyed with fear, staring intently at the turning gears.If the wrong button was pressed, not only would the gears not stop, but other traps in this room might be activated. They were in double jeopardy, and there was no escape for them.At that critical moment, the rumbling sound of the gears gradually diminished until it faded away entirely. The gears stopped just short of three feet away from them.Evelyn looked up at Nathan, her eyes wide with shock, and her voice trembling. "Nathan, we're saved."Nathan smiled and gently brushed her hair. "I told you, I won't let anythin

    The elderly man was none other than Warren's grandfather, Alfred. But wasn't Alfred being held in Milania by Russell? Moreover, he had been poisoned and was supposed to be unconscious.Yet, the elderly man before them was sitting at a table, leisurely playing a game of chess.Evelyn didn't have time to think much. She pressed the switch next to her, opened the door, and rushed in.Just as they went in, the glass door automatically closed behind them, and the entire room started to slowly descend—right into where the gears were turning.Evelyn looked at Nathan with some panic. "I think we've been tricked."Nathan looked at a control panel in the room and said, "Don't worry. This is the control console. As long as we find the button to stop the gears from turning, we'll be fine."After speaking, he carefully examined the central control panel.At that moment, Elma's laughter echoed again in the room. "Evelyn, this control panel has 81 buttons, and each one will trigger a different

    Elma's eyes seemed so familiar to Evelyn that they left a deep impression in her mind.When Evelyn was deep in thought, she suddenly opened her eyes wide as a name popped into her mind—Iris Lindt.Elma's eyes and nose looked a lot like Iris'. Could it be that they were related?Evelyn tried to stand up and look for William and Nathan, but her hands and feet were tied, making moving impossible.She softly called out, "William? Mr. Holland?"There was no response, so she tried calling out again. This time, a deep, hoarse voice rang out close by. "Evelyn, I'm over here."Nathan's voice was urgent and full of concern. In the darkness, Evelyn almost mistook it again for Warren's voice.She responded, "Mr. Holland, where is William?"Nathan kicked William beside him and said, "He's next to me. The drug seems to be affecting him more. Don't be afraid, I'll be over there right away."After speaking, Nathan crawled toward Evelyn. Seeing her pale face, he felt a bit concerned and asked,
