However, Nathan did not enjoy the meal. He looked bitter when he left.On the contrary, Freya was in a good mood. At the thought that karma had hit Rodney and Sarah, she could not help but eat more.After leaving the dining room, Ryan walked up to her and raised his brows. “It looks like that didn’t affect your mood.”“You’re wrong. It did, but…” Freya lifted her chin, and her eyes were beaming. “It improved my mood instead. Weren’t the sc*mmy couple in love with each other? How wonderful it is that they are finally having a falling-out and hurting each other.”Ryan darted a profound glance at her. “I believe someone is inciting the matter secretly.”“What?”Freya was stunned and pretended that she did not understand him. Although Ryan was her boyfriend, she could not let him in on the secret.“If you don’t want to tell me, it’s fine.” Ryan shrugged. “I just think that everything worked out too smoothly. As you said, Sarah is disabled. How could she seduce the second young maste
“Hah! Am I a recycling center?” Freya teased mercilessly.Ryan smiled elegantly. “I was just saying. I know you won’t get back together with Rodney. But if he really comes pestering you, I’ll defend my right as your boyfriend without a second thought.”Amid the night breeze, the man’s gentle yet domineering voice entered her ears.Freya rolled her eyes at him in a flirtatious manner.Then, Ryan felt a burning sensation in his chest and an overwhelming urge to drag her into his house.Nevertheless, the place here was indeed inappropriate, and he had no choice but to fight back his urge.He had a plan in mind. He did not want to be furtive about his relationship anymore. …Freya knew nothing about Ryan’s thoughts.However, as soon as she stepped into the office the next day, she headed straight to Catherine’s office. “Dinner is on me. Karma has hit that b*tch, Sarah, so let’s celebrate it. By the way, invite Eliza as well. Let’s have a drink and celebrate such a great occasion.
“Young Master Hill, what are you doing?”Seeing Shaun’s furious and jealous look, Freya deliberately twitched her red lips. “Cathy and I were pouring out our feelings to each other. Just now, Cathy said that if she were a man, she wouldn’t have been with you. She even said that she’ll never forget me.”“Is that true?” Shaun glared at Catherine with a grave expression.Catherine was speechless.Ahem. She did say that, but Freya and she were purely best friends. Why did he have to… act as though she was having an affair?Freya immediately stood in front of Shaun. “Young Master Hill, what are you doing? Yes, although you’re now on good terms with Cathy, I’m irreplaceable in her heart. Don’t forget who accompanied Cathy when she was feeling the most helpless. What about you? After so long, Cathy still has to rack her brains and think of how to take revenge against the woman who once hurt her deeply. Can you be more like a man? This time, she’s really going to finish the woman who ruin
Indeed, Sarah’s current appearance was horrifying. Both sides of her face were sunken, and even her nose had fallen. Her large, sunken eyes even made her look like a ghost.Sarah thought that she had managed to hypnotize Grady and that he still loved her unconditionally.While the court case was in process, Sarah had been hurling insults and things like a madwoman every day.She could not accept her hideous look and the permanent paralysis of her legs.On the day the case finally came to court, Grady found an excuse to absent himself.Sarah was wheeled to the court, and before the court session began, she came across Rodney.Having just been divorced not long ago, Sarah began to shout as soon as she saw Rodney. “Rodney, you’ll be cursed with a horrible death. I must’ve been blind enough to marry such a violent man like you. How unlucky of me to be loved by someone like you for over ten years.”Her words were like a needle that pierced Rodney’s heart.He tightened his fists, and
Hah…Rodney curled his lips into a grin in agony.At that moment, the door of the courtroom pushed open. A few police officers came in and presented their proof of identity. “We’re the police. We’ve received a report that Sarah was involved in a murder case. We need to take her to the police station for investigation.”Rodney was shocked.Sarah screamed in disbelief, “What murder? What nonsense are you talking about?”“Someone reported that the death of your father’s second wife, Jennifer Craven, is suspicious. We’ve gathered some evidence showing that you’re not only suspected of murder but also for ruining Jennifer’s dead body. Besides that, you often bewitch men you used to be with, attempting to swindle them out of their money and deceive them in marriage. Therefore, we must arrest you right now, and you can’t be bailed out.”Once the police officer finished speaking, he handcuffed Sarah and took her away.“No. I didn’t murder her. Don’t accuse me. Save me, Grady. Save me…”
“Hah. I helped Sarah?” Grady laughed in exasperation. “I did that to teach that woman a lesson. Otherwise, why do you think the housekeeper told you about it? In fact, I was the one who bribed her. If not, why would Sarah happen to be in bed with me when you came over? Why did the reporters happen to come…”“You fooled me.” Rodney tugged at Grady’s collars.Grady snorted. “Please. I’m the second young master of Hamel Corporation. No other woman has ever dared to trick me. Since she tricked me and played with my feelings, I will put her through hell. That woman even wanted to deceive me into giving her money so that she could return it to you. That’s just wishful thinking, and she’s greedy. You should thank me for exposing the woman’s true colors. If it weren’t for me, you would’ve been fooled by this woman forever.”Rodney was so dumbfounded that he looked like he was frozen. Grady poked Rodney’s chest pathetically. “Do you know how that woman described you in private? She claimed
No.Rodney’s eyes settled on Grady. Then, something struck Rodney. “I… I must’ve been hypnotized by Sarah. Yes, that must be it. Shaun, didn’t you say Sarah had rewritten your memories? Grady, too. He was hypnotized by Sarah when staying with her–”“You probably weren’t hypnotized,” Shaun interrupted him. “We’ve argued with you so many times. If your memories had been rewritten, we would’ve long since realized.”“Your case isn’t the same as Grady’s.” Catherine said, “If it were, you would’ve still been brainwashed by Sarah even after knowing that she had an affair. You wouldn’t have beaten her up.”Shaun nodded in agreement.Rodney froze for a moment before forcing a strained smile.He just wanted to find a reasonable excuse for himself.Nevertheless, he found out that only other men whom Sarah got together with were bewitched through hypnosis. He was the only one who got deceived by Sarah purely because he trusted her.He really was foolish.Everyone was right in criticizing
“Not only that but Thomas’s act of breaking into Freya’s home to rape and abuse her that night was also instigated by Sarah.”At the mention of the past, Shaun’s cheeks clenched in anger. “Sarah said she was dating me, so no matter how evil Thomas’s actions were, I would’ve helped her if she pleaded to me. Back then, I was… deceived by Sarah as well. I thought Thomas did it on his own.”Rodney’s body shook, and he suddenly recalled something. “The drug that Thomas gave Freya during the banquet of my company’s new product launch…”“Sarah was also the one who instigated it.” Shaun said, “Sarah initially wanted to ruin Freya, but instead, it made you and Freya get together by accident. That was how that night happened.”“…”Under everyone’s gazes, Rodney suddenly wanted to bury himself inside a hole. He actually believed Sarah’s words back then. She said she did not know Thomas would do that kind of thing and would have stopped him if she knew. There was also the incident where F
