Zachary was about to leave after he finished speaking when Huangfu Zi stopped him. He heard the sound of gunshots and a rough male voice outside."All of you, step back, or I'll kill this woman immediately..."They immediately looked at each other. The situation seemed to be different from what they thought.They didn't dare to delay and quickly walked out. When they got out of the villa, they saw that Chelsey's temple was pressed with a gun.As soon as Chelsey saw them, she called for help. "Natalie, Zachary, save me...""What exactly is going on?" Cecelia the one closest to them.The man replied, "The person who hijacked Miss Lu is called Scar. It was Miss Turner who sent him here five years ago to watch over Miss Lu. Just now, he was going into the room, so we didn't think much about it. But soon after, we heard gunshots. When we rushed in, he had pointed a gun at Miss Lu. We didn't know what happened inside."Hearing the man's explanation, Cecelia's eyes darkened slightly. S
This question, full of doubts and cold voice, attracted everyone's attention.Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw William, who was a little sleepy.Cecelia couldn't believe her eyes. She grabbed Natalie, who was standing next to her, and said, "Na, Natalie, did I have an illusion? Is that really your brother?"There were many times when Cecelia had an illusion.Sometimes he was in the company, sometimes he was in the middle of the night, and sometimes he could even see him on the road.Therefore, when Cecelia suddenly saw William, Cecelia thought it was his illusion again, so Cecelia couldn't believe his eyes.She had experienced so many hallucinations before, and she was afraid that it would be the same this time.No one could understand what kind of blow it would be to Cecelia every time he returned to reality from an illusion.Those who had never experienced such a painful feeling before couldn't feel it at all.Natalie also couldn't believe that she actua
“Pretty boy, wanna get married? I’m proposing to you!”William Sandler turned around to see an unkept girl covered in blood. He frowned slightly. “Are you talking to me?”Plenty of women had tried to get married to him, but this was the first time a woman was employing such a tactic...He discreetly took a look at the girl from head to toe. When he noticed her knees that were bleeding, his gaze sunk and a flash of darkness swept past his black eyes.Cecelia Shayne who seemed nervous immediat
Cecelia turned around and began to run away immediately.“Stop right there!”“... Ah!” Cecelia nearly fell. She steadied herself and turned around to ask, “Is there anything else?”“Cab fee.” The man was a scrooge with his words.“Oh, oh, oh!” Cecelia realized. She quickly dug her purse for some money and passed it to the driver. “Uncle, you don’t have to give me the change. Please send this pretty boy home.”She not only paid for her own fee but for the man’s as well.Since she had paid,
Hawick planned to push all the blame on Cecelia once they met Mr. Mason.Cecelia nearly fainted in anger when she heard Hawick’s words. ”Was it not enough that you slept with a cougar just to climb up the social ladder. Thus, you sold me to that blockhead? Y... you... you’re worse than an animal.”It was Cecelia’s first time scolding someone ever since she was born!Both of them had grown up in an orphanage together. Other than the five years when he was adopted, they studied in the same univ
Cecelia took 30 seconds to snap out of a daze and realize what was happening. She blinked her large, bell-like eyes and said, “Um, I only have one bedroom. As for the sofa in the living room, you can see that it’s very small and narrow.”‘It isn’t an excuse, it’s not!’Cecelia forced herself to stay composed under William’s sharp gaze.William looked her in the eye and asked, “How big is the bed?”Cecelia was unaware of his intentions for asking such a question. Consequently, she casually re
‘Huff. I finally said it without stuttering!’Cecelia felt that what she said was out of common sense. Hence, she was surprised to see that William’s face had darkened.It was as if William had just taken his face out of the fridge; his expression was as cold as one could imagine. Although he did not look that friendly earlier either, but his previous expression was way brighter than his current one.Cecelia watched as the man approached her step by step.She had no intention of backing down
Often said between lovers, it was the most popular romantic phrase at the time.Nevertheless, to Cecelia, it was a threat. A pure threat!Was it what people meant by ‘it is easy to bring in a spirit but difficult to send it away’?Cecelia wanted to cry as she was pulled by the collar to the bathroom.“10 minutes. Clean yourself up, otherwise, I will come to assist you.”Cecelia wanted to refute, ‘No, never. I’m not going to bathe.’ However, when she saw William’s stern gaze, her words becam
