Love in the dark Chapter 441 Backfire
Thrown into a fluster, Sarah quietly sat on the bed and clutched her phone tightly in her grasp. She could call for help at the first sign of trouble. Shawn hadn't come in peace. Apart from his slightly hollowed cheeks, the man looked no different. Shawn entered the ward and offhandedly closed the door before locking it behind him. The clicking sound of the lock only made Sarah anxious. Sarah knew from her mother’s stabbing incident that Shawn had pieced the whole thing together.Shawn had been under her thumb throughout the years and had never gone against her wishes. Sarah was aware of his many dirty deeds behind the scenes. He had resorted to torturous measures in dealing with those who were a threat to Sarah back in school. Time had only honed his skills in the shady business. Because of his fondness for Sarah, Shawn had been willing to go the extra mile and make sacrifices. The man indolently stood before Sarah. Sarah spoke first, asking, “What are you trying to d
Love in the dark Chapter 442 Feelings Arose
Sarah became frightened. She would have no reason to live if this lunatic ordered the men outside the door to violate her. With tears streaming down her face, Sarah moved forward and grabbed his sleeve. Her eyes met his. “I was wrong, but I was young back then. I didn’t know you'd confused me for someone else until the day your mother came forward to me.” Sarah choked with sobs. “It’s not like the Jenners can afford to upset your family anyway. I had to take your mom’s word for it. Who was I to say no to her? She told me to say only what was necessary and nothing more. I was supposed to be your instrument.” She mixed the truth with lies. Her eyes were puffy from crying. “Over the years, never once have I instructed you to harm her, except in one incident... But in a way, I gave you what you wanted.” Sarah was talking about her plan to take what was most precious to Zoey, and Shawn was an accomplice. When Sarah brought up the matter, Shawn sneered and strengthened his hold
Love in the dark Chapter 443 Live With the Fallout
Shawn fell silent for a while before snickering out of nowhere. “I was an asshole, but I can’t beat the time you forced her to get an abortion.” Sparks were flying. Laurence stood before Shawn against the light. His facial expression was visible in the dim light, only revealing his aloofness through his tensed facial lines. His eyes glistened with murderous intent like those of a beast ready to pounce. He pressed his lips tightly together. The remark got Laurence where it hurt, and the pain confused him. It hurt no less than a knife in his heart. Still, he held it together, apart from a slight discoloration on his skin. He said, “She and I will have children.” Laurence added with a blank face, “We can have as many children as we want. Thanks for asking.” Shawn kept to himself. Laurence glanced at Shawn before turning to the woman behind him, who seemed fine. “I’m a busy man. I should get going if this circus is over.” He advanced to the door and stopped before look
Love in the dark Chapter 444 Confusion
Zoey really didn't want to argue with Laurence because dealing with a grumpy man was harder than she thought. That's why she did her best to force out a smile, even though it was just an act. "Are you finished talking about work?" asked Laurence. Zoey nodded and said yes. Laurence was still worried, or perhaps he was just biased against her mentor. "Do you need to hire a lawyer to go through the agreement?" he asked.Fear crept into Zoey's mind; she didn't want him to meddle in her work. She shook her head and said, "Nope. We've already had a lawyer go through the agreement." Laurence was worried that she would be cheated or scammed. After all, he'd learned a few tough lessons from the ins and outs of it when he started his own business for fun during his university days. He didn't know whether to think that Zoey was inexperienced or that she just trusted that mentor of hers too much.He felt uneasy when he thought about how she would spend more and more time with Jim in the comi
Love in the dark Chapter 445 Are You Out of Your Mind?
After they finished, Laurence carried her into the bathroom for a shower. Then, she dried her hair while lying by the bedside and fell asleep in a blur. By the time she woke up, the sky had already turned dark. She blinked tiredly and cleared her blurry vision. Laurence was sitting at the desk in his pajamas, and his face was lit up by the computer screen, his skin looking smooth and fair. He seemed to be looking at her unfinished drafts as she slowly pushed herself up on her elbows. She felt sore from head to toe, but it wasn't unbearable.Laurence seemed to have heard her getting up and turned around to look at her. "Go downstairs for dinner if you're up." She stared at him in a daze before slowly gathering her senses. She asked him in a voice husky from sleep, "Are you using my laptop?" He nodded without giving her any further explanation. The mess they had made in the bedroom from lovemaking had already been tidied up. The floor-to-ceiling windows were open, and she couldn't s
Love in the dark Chapter 446 What Are You Thinking?
The cars behind them were honking non-stop because the traffic light had already turned green. Laurence drove ahead and pulled over by the curb. Then, he gripped the steering wheel with all his might but said in a casual tone, "Since my parents are rushing us, we have to show them some results."Zoey didn't buy his excuse at all, and she was so furious that her face was as white as a sheet. It had already been half a month, so taking medication now was useless. She'd actually been happy that she couldn't conceive now. "Didn't Mrs. Scott always use to rush you? I never saw you take the initiative then." That's why she thought Laurence was just being a huge dick. Laurence's expression was very stormy, but it was hidden in shadow, so Zoey couldn't tell. She didn't want to look at him anymore and took a deep breath to calm the rage burning inside her. "Don't tell me you want a child now." Laurence stayed silent for a long time. When he saw the mockery in her gaze, he couldn't bring hi
Love in the dark Chapter 447 Hit Murder
Laurence was a person who never mixed his personal life with his professional life, so it was definitely unlike him to hand the resort hotel project to her so casually. Zoey thought for a moment and said, "I'll fight for it." She would make a draft and compete fairly with the other studios, so she wouldn't owe him anything or waste such a good opportunity. Laurence could already sense what she meant and raised his brows, but he said nothing more. The resort hotel project was indeed a very huge opportunity for a new studio like Zoey's. If she managed to secure it, she would be spending more than half a year on it. Of course, Laurence's company would also reap the benefits. He loosened his tie and said, while pouring himself a glass of water, "I saw you at Porters the other day." He looked quite dashing in his simple white shirt.Zoey had been meeting clients everywhere in the past few days, and she had indeed been to Porters once. The director at Porters probably looked down on an
Love in the dark Chapter 448 Regrets
Their family had finally earned some money in these two years, but her husband had suddenly died in a car crash. The driver hadn't even tried to run and had just waited for the police to arrive. During the interrogation, he stuck to saying that he'd been really tired and hadn't seen a person on the road. Casey's wife no doubt knew about what had happened back then and was so scared that her teeth chattered. Her husband's body was so mangled by the huge truck that she couldn't bear to look at it. Her father-in-law had also died in a car crash before, and her husband had let her listen to the voice recording. He'd just given her the pendrive, somewhat uneasily, not too long ago and told her to go to the police if anything bad happened, and now he was really dead. She couldn't think of anyone else except for Robert, who would kill to silence her husband. What terrified her even more was that the pendrive with the voice recording had gone missing.Onlookers had gathered outside the co
