"Quick. Go and search again. Find your young madam." He ran out of the room and gave the order. "Don't worry, Mr. Richards. They did not kidnap our young madam. They caught the wrong person. They thought that Minnie was Jenna and had captured her instead." Alvin came over with Barrett in his hand, and threw him in front of Hansen. A gleam of light flashed in Hansen's fierce eyes as he stepped on Barrett s body. He yelled, "How did this happen?" "Mr. Richards, we have indeed caught the wrong person. At that time, we saw that the other woman was dressed in plain and shabby clothes, while this woman was dressed like the young madam. The two of them looked alike, so we caught the wrong person." Barrett answered as he trembled in fear, and Hansen's foot was about to break his bones. A smile spread across Hansen's face, and all of a sudden, he broke into laughter. This. This was great. It was god's will! "Get someone to send Minnie to the hospital at once
"Mr. Richards, we only received the mission from a middleman through a phone call. When we met, it was an unknown man too. We didn't get any other information from them." Brock's face was twisted due to the pain, and his complexion turned pale. Hansen looked at him with a glum face, and expected that he wouldn't lie anymore. He couldn't help but to yell, "You guys have no conscience. How could you guys just accept such inhumane tasks for money?" After that, he squatted down and pinched his chin, with an expression full of mockery. "I really didn't expect that the head of the biggest gang in A City would be a coward that couldn't take beatings and torture. I bet you've never expected that you'd fall into my hands and end up like this," he said. Hansen laughed after he was done speaking. Brock's face turned red and then green. He was triggered by Hansen's scorns, as even being involved in gangs, he hated it the most when people ridiculed him. The spark that
"Hansen." Christopher rushed over in the dark night, and called out to him with a smile as he saw him. He extended his fist and punched his shoulder. "You rascal, taking action without my instructions again." Hansen was expressionless. He sneered and said sarcastically, "If I hadn't acted early, you probably wouldn't be able to capture Brock throughout your entire career, and all our hard work would go to waste. You wouldn't be able to get your credit either." Christopher smiled sheepishly and scratched his head. He knew that he couldn't fool him. "Alright, I owe you a favor for this. You did help me a lot for this anti-drug operation, but I will return the favor very soon and let you know how sincere I am to you." Christopher said mysteriously. Hansen didn't bother answering him, and didn't believe that he would be able to help him with anything. Ever since he had known this guy, he was the one who was helping him the whole time. He put in a lot of effort to he
"It seems like your lover is worried about you. He's still following us." Hansen sneered, and anger could be heard in his voice. Jenna was shocked. Surely enough, she had seen Rayan's car behind them through the rearview mirror. Her face turned red as she felt apologetic, and she quickly gave Hansen a smile and tried to cajole him. "Sorry, Hansen, he didn't mean to do it." How dare she defend him! Hansen was enraged. "Oh, really?" He smiled coldly, and then gave the accelerator a hard step, and the car sped forward. "Ahhhh," Jenna screamed in fear and the speedometer on the dashboard showed that the current speed was 180 kilometers per hour. Her body was dripping in sweat, and she pleaded loudly. "Have you lost your mind, Hansen? Please slow down. it's nighttime." "Are you afraid of dying? How about we die together?" Hansen said with a mouth full of frost. "Hansen, you're crazy." Jenna's face was pale, but she had no more tears left to cry.
It's the second day of the New Year, and the last day of the Richards Manor New Year's banquet. She glanced around in the bedroom, that she'd never dreamed that she would return to. Who would've known that she'd be tricked by Hansen into returning the night before. All sorts of emotions welled up in her heart and she stood there in a stupor. Aunt Ella walked in to clean up after her breakfast. However, she noticed that Jenna hadn't touched the luxurious breakfast at all. She was concerned and distressed. "Young Madam, the Young Master said that you have to eat more," she said to Jenna. Jenna gave her a faint smile. "Aunt Ella, you don't have to refer to me as the Young Madam anymore. I don't belong here anymore. I'll be leaving soon." She said. "Young... where are you going?" Aunt Ella felt sorrowful and asked sadly. Jenna could see Aunt Ella's sorrow, and she said to her with a warm smile, "Don't worry, Aunt Ella, the world is huge. Ther
"Rayan, I'm at Richards Manor. I was just about to go and look for you," Jenna said casually with a faint smile on her face. "Don't you have to stay there today?" He asked as he let out a sigh of relief. "Yes. I don't have anything to do here anymore. Therefore, I'll be leaving today." She answered gently. "Alright then. Wait for me. I'll come and pick you up," Rayan said tenderly with a smile across his face. "Okay, Rayan. I'll be waiting for you at the entrance of Richards Manor." Jenna walked over to the electric cars and put her cellphone away. It wouldn't take Rayan too long to come here. She would just have to walk out now and wait for a while. She stood by the roadside, and didn't see any electric cars. The atmosphere in Richards Manor was still very lively. The last event would be held at nine o'clock in the morning. Earl McAdams was going to give a speech to celebrate the end of the New Year's banquet at Richards Manor. In the afternoo
"Dear, guests. Welcome to the annual New Year's banquet of the great Richards Manor. Richards Manor is the pride of A City..." Earl McAdams had a clear, booming voice, and spoke proudly and passionately. He talked about the bright lights that shone on the Central Island. Among the silent crowd, a few staff members dressed in black clothes and name cards walked out from the backstage. Very soon, they approached Earl. The crowd was shocked. "Earl McAdams, please come with us." Someone who looked like the leader said in a calm manner as he showed Earl McAdams his work permit. Earl was stunned by the sudden turn of events. He furrowed his brows slightly, and was just about to get angry when he peered at the person's work permit. In an instant, his face turned as pale as snow and his hands began to tremble. He could no longer stand still. "Take him." The leader ordered the two staff members behind him who were dressed in black suits. The two s
"I guess that's true." Hansen said coldly after listening to Norton challenging it multiple times. "Moreover, when I first heard that it was the Pranica car that had killed Javon, I thought you were the one who killed him. After all, you hated Jenna and Javon very much at that time." Norton recalled hinting to Jenna that Hansen was involved in her father's death, in hopes that Jenna would leave Hansen and hate him after she learnt about the news. Who would've known that she didn't believe him at all, and never broke up with Hansen. Instead, they were even closer and in love. Now that he thought about it, Jenna really loved Hansen, and she trusted him out of love. However, now it seemed that it was truly someone else who had killed Javon Murphy. Hansen's bright eyes were filled with rage. It seemed that the two of them had been fooled by someone else. It was evident that the mastermind behind all of this had taken the opportunity to kill Javon after they found ou
Santiago went home once more to retrieve Jepherson's sperm from the sperm bank. After that, Raeleigh got pregnant through medical procedures. However, when Raeleigh was only three days pregnant, the doctor made a major discovery. He informed her that he made progress with Shaney's illness , and that he might have misdiagnosed her condition. At that time, Raeleigh had been so overjoyed that Shaney was fine, and she only remembered that she was pregnant after half a month since learning about Shaney. By the time she remembered that she was with child, she wanted to stop her pregnancy. However, Santiago persuaded her to give the baby to him. Raeleigh pondered about it for a long time before finally agreeing. ...... Time passed in a blink of an eye, and Raeleigh had never expected for things to turn out the way it did. She gave birth to her second child, and Shaney had made a full recovery. Santiago had told her that the baby was the will of God, and he
When Raeleigh got out of the car, she began staring at the Richards family's courtyard. Although the Richards family had already buried Marissa's body, Raeleigh was still unwilling to go back. However, as she gazed at Carsten's precious little face that was looking at her expectantly, she had no choice but to follow Jepherson inside. At that moment, Santigo and the other children were in the yard. When Santiago saw Raeleigh and Jepherson, he smiled and gestured at Jepherson. "What are you doing?" Raeleigh asked when she saw Santiago. "Nothing." Though Raeleigh did not believe Jepherson, she decided not to ask further. When Carsten saw Forden and Shaney, he immediately tried to break away from Jepherson's arms, wanting to get to them. The children were all gathered in the Richards family manor that day. Coupled with the four other children of the Whalen family, there were ten children altogether, and they almost occupied the entire courtyard. Ra
Raeleigh said nothing as Carsten continued sinking his teeth into Jepherson's neck. She stared in shock as blood seeped out of his wound. Jepherson raised his hand and patted Carsten gently, then walked to the bed and sat down. After a while, Carsten finally fell asleep. He closed his eyes as he dozed off in Jepherson's arms. Meanwhile, Raeleigh had rushed out of the room to ask the hotel staff to prepare disinfectants before going back into the room to help Jepherson clean his wound. Jepherson leaned against the wall, still holding Carsten in his arms and unwilling to let go. Raeleigh frowned. "What should we do?" Jepherson's voice was a little hoarse. He had been busy for the past two days entertaining guests. "He got scared because of the crowd. He thought that you didn't want him anymore since he couldn't find you, and probably thinks that I'm the one who forced him to stay there." After bandaging Jepherson's wound, Raeleigh helped wipe Carsten's mouth. Sudd
After Raeleigh and the others left, Santiago walked to Zorion's car and stopped him. Zorion casted a glance outside. "Rossie, you should go first. He won't show any mercy once I get off." "You knew he wouldn't show you mercy, so why didn't you think of that before you caused trouble?" "I was just kidding! Who knew he'd have such a bad temper? I didn't expect him to take it seriously." Rossie sighed and gave in. Glancing at Zorion, she finally understood that he was only using her as an excuse to escape whenever he got into trouble. She got out of the car and looked at Santiago who stood opposite her. "Long time no see." "Where's Zorion?" "He's so afraid of you that he doesn't even dare to come out," said Rossie. "It's too late to be scared." He walked up to Zorion's car with the rod in his hand, then raised the stick and smashed it against the car until it was completely wrecked. When he was done, he tossed the stick aside, turned to pick
After leaving the kindergarten, Raeleigh followed Santiago to the Richards family manor. It had been four years since she returned, so she was no longer familiar with the place. Santiago went in, put Carsten down and asked the children to keep themselves entertained. He then looked at Raeleigh and said, "I came back this time because Mrs. Richards is dying. She has been unconscious for a while now. I came back to see her for the last time." Raeleigh asked, "Mrs. Richards?" "Yes. Jepherson hasn't been home these couple of days because he has gone to visit her. He didn't tell you about it because Mrs. Richards doesn't want to see you. While she was still herself, she did say that she would never let you into the family, and that she didn't want to see you ever again. Jepherson went to take care of her but was worried about you. So, he asked me to come home to take a look and it was only then did I find out that Carsten is autistic. This is on your plate now."
When the time came, Raeleigh enrolled Carsten into a kindergarten. On the first day of school, Carsten was bullied. Raeleigh felt sorry for him as she gently touched his swollen face. He had been beaten because he could not speak. She wanted to confront the bully, but Jepherson stopped her. He told her that Carsten should resolve this matter by himself. That year, Raeleigh could not sleep well at night. Hair loss became an issue, and she was exhausted all the time. But after half a month, the children stopped bullying Carsten. Instead, their parents came to Raeleigh's home. "Just take a look at your child..." The parents pointed to their child, and Raeleigh was confused when she saw a boy about the same height as Carsten. The boy seemed to have taken a serious beating, but when Carsten had gotten beaten up like this, Raeleigh hadn't gone to look for trouble with the bully's parents, did she? Raeleigh retorted, "And? It's normal for
The snow was falling heavily. Jepherson put away the phone and took Raeleigh back into the house. The two stood inside and watched the snow. Meanwhile, Hadrian and Scarlette were busy in the kitchen, not daring to make a sound. The Richards family manor remained quiet when winter was approaching. None of the family members returned even on New Year's Day. Raeleigh went to the yard and waited for them in advance, but no one came back. After New Year's Day, Raeleigh returned to her home with Jepherson. Her family members were all surprised to see her pregnant when she got home. They did not expect Raeleigh to be pregnant after being missing for several months. Moreover, she was almost due. Everyone in the Osteen family knew that Raeleigh stayed because of the baby inside her belly. Undoubtedly, the baby was Jepherson's. However, they wondered where Santiago went. Since Raeleigh said nothing, no one dared to ask about it. They all ignored the incident and sil
Raeleigh was stopped by Jepherson's men at the entrance of the village. 'I knew it wouldn't be easy for me to run away.' "Madam Raeleigh, Mr. Richards is waiting for you." Raeleigh had no choice but to go back with them. At the same time, Jepherson sat on his wheelchair outside the village with a blanket on his lap and upon seeing Raeleigh, he breathed a sigh of relief. Raeleigh walked up to him, "Don't be complacent. I'll leave one day." Shifting his gaze to Raeleigh's belly, Jepherson stretched out his hand and pulled her to him. Despite being too weak to walk, he had a firm grip. Raeleigh lost her balance and fell onto his lap. She tried to escape, but he said immediately, "Don't move." Although his voice sounded terrifying to others, he was trying to negotiate. Everyone turned around to look at them, and Raeleigh blushed. Jepherson covered her body with the blanket, then placed his hand onto her belly. Raeleigh tensed up immediately. She ra
Raeleigh had been depressed for a while after Santiago's departure. After a few days, she finally calmed down a little. Jepherson's health had not improved during this period of time. Whenever he was free, he would stare at Shaney's photo in a daze. Deanna and Jacky had helped take care of Jepherson when Raeleigh fell ill. After Raeleigh recovered, she returned to taking care of him herself. However, Jepherson had been in such poor health that he couldn't even go downstairs. It took Raeleigh a lot of effort to help him get down, especially when he was unwilling to go downstairs. "Autumn is coming. I don't want to go down." He was saying that it was cold downstairs. Raeleigh replied, "I can't take care of you all the time. Are you going to exhaust me to death? Your parents left you alone and ignored you. Santiago abandoned you too. What do you want me to do? I have to work. I also have to take care of you..." "Then stop working. Take care of me." Rael
