Inside the bedroom, the light was dim.Their clothes scattered at the entrance, and further in was a messy bed, surrounded by cushions, torn fabric, and used tissues.On the other side of the bed, on a muddy black leather sofa, Tyrone had one foot planted on the floor. His tense muscles rippled across his back, and his handsome face was flushed with lust, resembling a speeding beast.His tall frame completely obscured the woman who had been forced into the corner of the sofa. Only her pitiful sounds of pleading could be heard every now and then…After a wild session, Tyrone held Heather as they rested on the sofa."Are you tired?""Mm..." Heather's eyes were closed. She said weakly, "Aislin actually drugged you. I won't let her get away with this!"The drug's effects were strong, but it didn't make one lose consciousness.Thinking about what had just happened made Heather's cheeks flush with embarrassment. She wished she could find a hole to hide herself from him."Mm..."T
Tyrone inherited Margaret's facial features, but he was more masculine and imposing.When Margaret heard footsteps, she looked at Heather, scanning her like she was looking at merchandise.Heather felt uncomfortable but maintained her composure. She walked over and politely said, "Mrs. Elkin, I heard you were looking for me."Margaret put down her coffee and gave Heather an indifferent look. "Ms. Sutton, it seems you're quite privileged. It's almost eleven in the morning, and you're still in bed. Is this how you usually take care of Tyrone?"There was a mocking tone in her voice, and Heather frowned slightly. "Mrs. Elkin, Tyrone has a lot of maids. He doesn't need me to take care of him."Margaret sneered dismissively. "I came here today to see what kind of woman has caused so much trouble for my son. Turns out you're just average."Heather frowned again. "What are you really trying to say?"Margaret said coldly, "You cannot stay with Tyrone!"Before Heather could reply, she co
Heather frowned. "Why should I go with you?""Aren't you my girlfriend? We've been invited as a couple to the banquet," Greg said. "I'm not going."Greg said in a casual tone, "If you don't go, people will start to wonder if we're having problems. When they ask me, what if I accidentally let it slip about you and Tyrone..."Heather gave him a stern stare. "Are you planning to blackmail me with this forever? Greg, I saved your life!"Her expression was cold as she added, "Announce our breakup, and I will consider that as you thanking me."Greg chuckled. "When did I ever say I want to thank you?"Heather wanted to punch him. She knew Greg would actually do it. To take revenge on Tyrone, he would actually spread rumors without hesitation.With Tyrone's status, even the smallest scandal could shake his company's stock prices.But it wasn't about the loss. It was about Greg and his cunningness.Heather pressed her lips together. "I'll let you stay here and even keep up the act wi
Late into the night.Heather, exhausted, fell into a deep sleep.Tyrone, wearing a bathrobe, stood by the bed, watching her for a moment. He reached out and put the blanket on her. Then, he gently touched her delicate chin before turning and leaving quietly.He headed to the study room, sat in his chair, and took out his phone to make a call."Tyrone, what a surprise to get a call from you!"Margaret sounded surprised but delighted. It had been a long time since she had heard from him.Tyrone, sitting there, said with a cold tone, "Heather is my woman. My affairs are none of your business. Don't show up in front of her again or say anything to upset her."Margaret froze. Her voice was displeased. "Did she complain to you? Tyrone, how can you speak to me like this because of another woman? I'm your mother!"She couldn't believe he was warning her to stay away from Heather!Her son was clearly completely seduced by Heather!"Just remember what I said."Tyrone had no interest i
Heather trembled all over. After being with Tyrone for so long, she knew exactly what he wanted to do at this moment. She pleaded, "No, I'm too tired."He knew he needed to let her rest today.Tyrone's gaze lingered on her slightly swollen lips, and a gleam flashed in his eyes. "Then use it to help me."Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, breaking the warm tension in the room.Tyrone frowned in annoyance and turned toward the door. "What is it?""Tyrone, Greg asked me to bring Ms. Sutton's clothes." Cynthia's voice came from outside.Tyrone's expression turned icy as he glanced down at Heather.Heather shook her head to show she had no idea what was going on.…Two minutes later, the bedroom door opened.Tyrone stood there, and a hickey was still visible on his collarbone. His demeanor was both aloof and sensual as he asked, "What clothes?""Tyrone, Greg said this is Ms. Sutton's dress for today's luncheon."Sitting on the bed, Heather rolled her eyes when she heard th
As soon as Tyrone and Greg met, tension filled the air.Heather shot Greg a glare and said, "He's just trying to rile you up on purpose. Don't get angry with him. Aren't you supposed to have a meeting? Let's go. Don't waste time on him."Tyrone didn't spare Greg a glance and strode toward the door.Watching their backs with a smirk, Greg's assistant respectfully asked, "Greg, are you planning to stay here any longer?""Don't you find it interesting?" Greg narrowed his eyes.He used to think killing Tyrone would be fun, but recently, he had found his new hobby.He was curious to see how long this couple would last.The three left the villa. Tyrone got into a black Maybach, while Greg and Heather entered another car. The two cars drove away from the villa, one following the other.…The banquet was held at another villa, hosted by one of Greg's business partners.However, his real purpose for attending was to meet a representative of a foreign conglomerate.The moment Greg and
Heather picked up the phone without checking the number and asked, "Tyrone, what now?""Hattie, it's me." Whitney's voice came through the phone.Heather was taken aback. "Do you need something?""Hattie, I won first place in my school's art competition yesterday! I wanted to give you the painting as a gift. Are you free to meet me?"Whitney's nervous tone made it hard for Heather to refuse."Can you send me the address? I'll be there in a while," Heather replied."Great! I'll be waiting for you!"Whitney exclaimed happily before hanging up. Soon, she sent Heather the location of a café.She and Greg had been playing their parts well at the banquet. Since it was already halfway through, she figured it wouldn't be a problem to find an excuse to leave early.She stood up and headed toward the villa's main door as she sent a message to Greg."I have something else to do and I'm leaving now."As she was looking down at her phone, she didn't notice the corner ahead and bumped rig
A steel pipe slammed heavily onto Craig's head!He frowned and let out a painful groan. The next second, bright red blood started to stream down his forehead.He was injured.The steel pipes scattered across the ground. Heather quickly helped Craig sit up. He clenched his teeth, his face pale, and the scene of blood soaking his white shirt was shocking."Craig, are you okay? How are you feeling?" Heather asked anxiously."Oh my God! Mr. Simpson!" Craig's assistant rushed over. His face turned pale when he saw the scene.Craig's face was deathly pale, and he seemed a bit dazed from the blow."Don't worry, I'll call the ambulance right away."Heather took out her phone to make the call, but Craig suddenly grabbed her wrist and said, "You can't call the ambulance. Take me home and call a doctor!"Heather said, "You're seriously injured! How can you not go to the hospital?"Craig shook his head. "The Simpson family is under public scrutiny. If I go to the hospital and word gets ou
"You have the hair. You can leave now," Tyrone said as he started to drive both Greg and Hector away.He was feeling sorry for Heather for having to deal with this when she had just woken up and when she was still quite frail."Arrange a room opposite this ward for me," Greg ordered his bodyguard.When Tyrone heard what Greg was saying, he frowned and said coldly, "You're going to stay here?""There are so many reporters outside. Do you think it's suitable for me to leave in less than 20 minutes after I've just visited my girlfriend who has been admitted to the hospital?" Greg remarked casually.However, he kept on poking at Tyrone by referring to Heather as his girlfriend again and again.Tyrone's expression was extremely cold as he said, "You're really treating yourself as her boyfriend now, huh?""It doesn't matter if I want to be her boyfriend or not. Most importantly, the entire nation believes I'm her boyfriend.""Looks like you want me to get you some work.""Ha!" Greg
Tyrone's eyes became a little colder as his arms around Heather's waist tightened.Greg scoffed at Tyrone's act of announcing his ownership and simply shot Heather a look. "Are you feeling any better?"He was here to visit a patient, so there was no need to get into a scuffle with an amiable person.Heather couldn't show Greg a sour expression, so she simply nodded. "Yeah."Greg let out a laugh. "You're so fortunate. Otherwise, you're going to die from some garbage's uselessness."He was inferring something else.Tyrone frowned and his attitude became even colder. "If you don't want me to throw you out, you should learn how to watch your tongue."Greg scoffed. "Which part of what I said was wrong?""Alright, now that Hattie's back, you two should stop fighting," Hector said. His gentle nature and charm easily make others have a good impression of him.He might be Heather's older cousin, so they had to show him some respect.Tyrone's eyes were cold as he bit his lips and said
Tyrone's body stiffened and the atmosphere suddenly turned tense."Tyrone. He shielded me from an attack. I saw him get hurt. I just want to know how bad his injury is."Heather knew Tyrone didn't like her talking about Craig, but she was genuinely worried about Craig. Heather explained to Tyrone using a gentle voice and tugged at his clothing.There was some anxiety in her eyes. She was being very careful, worried that he might get angry.It was true that Tyrone was somewhat upset, but what else could he say when she was already having that kind of attitude?Tyrone stayed quiet for a while and said, "He's no longer in danger."Heather sighed in relief. "I want to see him."Heather knew Tyrone was going to get upset again if he found out she sneaked out to see Craig, so she might as well tell Tyrone now.Tyrone was silent for a few seconds before he coldly said, "You can see him when you're in a better condition."Heather wanted to go immediately. But she knew if she showed to
Seth had already planned to go for a game of gold in the afternoon.Ivy didn't want to stay to become a third wheel, so after telling Heather to take good care of herself, she then left together with Seth.The ward instantly fell silent.Tyrone looked at Heather with dark eyes. "How do you feel? Do you still feel any pain?"Heather simply said, "I want to take a shower."She had sweated a lot after she recovered from her fever, and she wasn't feeling that comfortable from the sticky sweat.Tyrone's eyes darkened and didn't say anything. He pulled the blanket aside and picked her up, taking her to the washroom.The moment they were inside the washroom, Tyrone placed her on the toilet. He first filled the bathtub with hot water before turning around, wanting to remove her clothes."I can take a bath by myself. You should go out," Heather said as she held onto her outfit tightly, blushing.Tyrone raised his eyebrow. "How can you take a bath yourself when you're so weak? What if a
When Heather opened her eyes once again, the first person she saw was Ivy."You're finally awake, Hattie! You're scaring me to death! Are you alright? Are you feeling any discomfort?"Ivy quickly held Heather's hand when she saw the latter opening her eyes. Then, she asked a string of questions.Heather's entire body was feeling numb and her head was spinning. "I feel weak. Is this the hospital? Why are you here?""I found out from Seth that you have been kidnapped and Mr. Elkin has been searching for you all the while," Ivy said nervously. "You've been having a fever for the past two days and you scared me. It is so fortunate that you turned out alright."She paused a little before saying angrily, "Selena must have gone crazy. She was trying to starve you to death. I know she's not a good person, but I didn't expect her to be so malevolent."You can't even call her a human anymore. She's been arrested, and it's over for her this time."Ivy still couldn't forget how she first sa
Craig was too calm. Perhaps it was because he already knew how duplicitous Selena was.The gentle Selena was just an illusion he saw when they first met, and after he was charmed.That was why, despite feeling angry and shocked once finding out Selena's pregnancy was a lie, he didn't find it completely unbelievable.There was nervousness when Selena was looking at Craig, but it slowly turned into disappointment. Her lips curled into a bitter smile as she said, "You must be so happy when you heard I've faked my pregnancy. You think that you've finally gotten rid of this burden, haven't you?"Craig… Do you know how much I wanted to have a child with you? But you don't look forward to having a child with me at all!"Then let me tell you one more thing. Nothing happened between us that night at the hotel. I've always been lying to you."Aren't you even happier when you hear this news? She spends every waking moment with Tyrone, but you're still keeping your virginity for her… Do yo
Light reflected from the sharp blade."Hattie!" Tyrone yelled loudly.Selena was already right in front of Heather in the blink of an eye, wearing a twisted expression on her face as she held the dagger in her hand.Suddenly, Craig appeared right in front of Heather. He protected Heather, and the sharp blade sliced open a deep wound on his face.Craig grunted, and his towering figure shuddered.Heather looked at the figure standing right in front of her as she could only weakly shout out in shock, "Craig!"Why was he there?Craig was showing Heather his back as he raised his hand to cover his face, blood coming out from between his fingers and dripping on the ground as it flowed from the back of his hand."Don't worry, I'm fine."Craig glared at Selena coldly as he responded to Heather.Selena was completely stunned as she couldn't move her eyes away from Craig.Tyrone kicked Selena's bodyguard in the chest, and he fell to the ground, unconscious. It was at this time when Ca
"But what did you do?"Selena's eyes were suddenly filled with savagery, as if she wanted to turn Heather into shreds. "We were fine when we went on our honeymoon, but everything changed the moment we met you!"Why wouldn't you leave? Why must you string him along? He was going to fall in love with me soon!"Heather, you ruined everything for me! It's you… It's all because of you!"Selena screamed in hysteria.She still believed that the root of all her issues was because Heather refused to leave.Heather never expected Craig and Selena to have such a deep history. "I've never wanted to steal Craig from you. You're the one that's being too suspicious."Selena kept staring at Heather. "It doesn't matter, because you're going to die today, anyway. Even if Craig won't ever love me, he can forget about being together with you!"Even if she couldn't get Craig, she wouldn't allow them to be together.All Selena cared about was revenge.Selena pulled out a dagger from her purse. The
Caleb moved very quickly. He had already found out that Selena had been keeping in touch with a number every day.The owner of that number was a bodyguard who worked for the Huntington. According to the GPS signal from the phone with this number, the phone had been staying in Suthurn Hills on the northern side of Royalton.At the same time, Caleb's phone started to ring. He picked it up and listened to his subordinate's reports. He frowned and said, "Sir, Selena had suddenly left the hospital. Her car is leaving the city.""If she really is leaving the city, is it possible that she's heading to Suthurn Hills? Maybe her bodyguard is keeping an eye on Heather?" Hector made an educated guess.In reality, Hector's guesses were all spot on."The mountains stretch across a wide area. We need to find a way to pinpoint the phone's exact location and then send out our men to search the area," Greg said.Tyrone said nothing as he pursed his lips. Suddenly, he walked in the direction of the
