Suddenly, she turned her head to look at Maxwell. "Maxwell, do you remember this name?"There was a flash of sharpness in Maxwell's eyes, and he nodded. "It seems that the person who hit you with the car before was called Jake Wilcroft?"‘Or rather, it was Jake Wilcroft who hit us.’ This name left a deep impression on Maxwell."Could it be..." Sonnet had a bad premonition in her heart.Maxwell clenched his fist, but a goofy smile appeared on his face. "So many people named Jake."If it was before, he would not care.But after knowing that Jake was ordered by someone to hit him on purpose, his death was out of the ordinary.Sonnet said sadly, "I hope it's not that Jake."Although Jake was drunk driving and she had to deal with him because of the traffic accident, it still felt a little weird that he died like this after all."What a coincidence." Maxwell said, putting his arms around Sonnet's shoulders, "I'm not full yet, find another place to eat!"They got in the car back to
‘If Jake was killed to be silenced, then these people are here for him. Who are these people?’There was a chill in Maxwell's heart.Over the years, he had been secretly investigating the car accident that year, but he never found any clues.He also secretly investigated his uncles from the Brook family, and none of them had any doubtful evidence, which showed that the perpetrator hid too deeply and did everything seamlessly.‘Now that I’m an easy target out here while that ghost is hiding in the dark, I am indeed a little shaken.’He was not afraid of anything else, only afraid that the perpetrator would attack his wife...He called Alex. "Find some skilled people and quietly follow Sonnet around the clock. Be sure to protect her safety, and don't let her find out!"During the lunch break, Sonnet heard Juliette and the others talking about the "Reservoir Male Corpse". "I heard that he had been out of contact for several days, and his family also called the police, but he was ne
She was stunned. The person who was beaten turned out to be Johnny Cole.She had not seen him for a while, he looked dejected and disheveled, nothing like the financial elite before.When she was looking at him, Johnny happened to look over with his head in his arms. He noticed that it was Sonnet and immediately yelled. "Sonnet! Sonnet Turner!"Sonnet pulled Juliette to quicken her pace.Then Johnny cried out. "Brother, that woman is my sister, she can help me pay back the money, stop her!"Then some of the thugs ran towards Sonnet quickly.Sonnet pushed Juliette. "You go quickly."Juliette's face changed slightly. "What's the matter? Who are these people? You won't be in danger, right?""Hurry up and call the police for me." Sonnet whispered to her.Juliette nodded heavily and left quickly.Those people only wanted to stop Sonnet, so they did not go after Juliette.Sonnet was blocked by them, she asked coldly, "What are you doing?""Why, didn't you hear what your brother s
At that moment, Sonnet felt suffocated, and her mind was buzzing.Johnny's hysterical screams rang in her ear. "You nasty woman, you are obviously rich, but you wouldn’t help me! Why are you so haughty? You only married a silly rich young master! Today, you better take out your money to save me! Then, I'll let you go, or I'll just strangle you to death! Even if I die, I’ll drag you along with me!"Sonnet's face gradually turned purple, and his voice gradually became distant.Just when she felt that she was about to pass out, there was a sudden shout.She subconsciously turned her head to look, and saw a few young men running over from nowhere, fighting with those big guys.Then, as soon as her neck was loosened, fresh air rushed into her airways, and she instinctively covered her neck and took a deep breath.Once her breath recovered, she looked intently and saw Johnny being held aside by a young man with his hands tight behind his back.The few big men who asked for debts just
"Why is it you?!" She was taken aback.Sonnet raised her chin and showed her the red mark on her neck from being strangled by Johnny. "Your son did this, I was almost strangled to death by him."Martha's expression became a little complicated.After being silent for a while, she stepped forward and took Sonnet's hand. "Since it's you, it's easy for us to talk. Sonnet, tell the police quickly that you will not pursue your brother's criminal responsibility!"That "your brother" startled Juliette who was next to her, and she stared at Sonnet with wide eyes.Sonnet felt disgusted in her heart and shook Martha's hand away vigorously. "Don't talk nonsense, that’s not my brother!"Martha staggered two steps back.Just at this moment, Jessie came in from the outside and saw that Martha stumbled, so she immediately ran over to support her, and at the same time shouted at Sonnet, "Sonnet, why did you push my mother?!""So what, if I pushed her?" Sonnet retorted coldly.She was never unr
"I'm sorry, I’m really petty. You have a deep sibling relationship with Johnny, so you should find a way to save him!"Sonnet said as she slapped Jessie's hand away vigorously and continued to walk forward.Jessie yelled angrily. "Sonnet! A woman like you has a heart made of stone, you don’t care about family affection at all! A heartless and cold-blooded person like you deserves your child's short life!"Sonnet's footsteps suddenly stopped.She turned her head, looked at Jessie, and walked back to her step by step.Frightened by the ferocity in her eyes, Jessie took two steps back involuntarily. "You, what are you going to do?"Sonnet raised her arms.Jessie instinctively covered her head and face with her hands.Sonnet's hand came down heavily, but when it landed on Jessie's face, it turned into a light touch, touching her cheek."Ms. Cole, you are so precious, and your skin is so beautiful—"Sonnet leaned against her ear, her voice was icy. "But I heard people say that whe
Martha's eyes rolled. "If you really can't get over this hurdle in your heart, then I will apologize to you on Johnny's behalf today!"As she spoke, she fell to her knees in front of Sonnet with a "plop".Sonnet took a step back unexpectedly, she never expected Martha to do this for her son.Next to her, Jessie hurriedly pulled Martha. "Mom, get up quickly, how can such a person deserve your kneeling?"Martha did not move, but lightly reprimanded Jessie. "You are an adult, you should be sensible by now! Even if she is not my daughter, or someone I don't know, we as the family members of the suspect should also sincerely apologize. Not to mention, she is my daughter, it was my fault that I did not raise her properly all these years. Now that she has been hurt like this by Johnny, can’t I apologize to my daughter?"Then, she looked at Sonnet, her eyes were red. "Sonnet, it's my fault. I didn't treat you well when I was blinded and obsessed. Later, because you insisted on going back
"But it's too much for you to kneel down to her...""All because you are incompetent! If you can find a good husband, why would your second brother have no money to pay back!" Speaking of this, Martha became a little angry, "Let’s talk about you, your dad and I have been grooming you in various ways since you were young. I originally thought, to train you to be a superior noble lady, so that you can marry into a wealthy family in the future. In the end, you are completely useless, and you haven’t even found a boyfriend until now!"It's Sonnet who married a fool but became a rich young mistress. Look at her now, she is more imposing than your mother and you! Did you hear what your second brother said, she has 50 million in her bank account. With a wave of her hand, she took out 20 million to invest in stocks, and she didn’t feel distressed when she lost 10 million yuan! Tsk tsk, she is really a rich wife now!"Jessie looked at the envious expression on her mother's face, feeling jeal
