Chapter 171 You're All Insane!

Author: Simone Hastings
Tessa's expression changed all of a sudden, and she said with a hint of pride, "I didn't need to lay a hand on those women who had been with him only once. But there was one woman I killed."

Her eyes showed a deep sense of disgust and disdain. "That bitch even looked like me. I warned her not to bother Chandler, but she didn't listen. Even after getting a boyfriend, she still harassed Chandler incessantly. A fucking shameless whore like her shouldn't exist in this world!"

Ignoring Erin's horrified expression, Tessa felt increasingly satisfied in her heart. This method, which didn't require any physical torture but only exerted psychological pressure, had the most impactful effect that she wanted. It made Tessa feel accomplished.

In Tessa's view, this was the highest form of torture as it imbued profound horror within people. While doing that, she felt like she was the master of the universe, controlling others' life and death. She'd finally metamorphosized from a victim to an abuser

    Erin finally understood the full gravity of the precarious situation that she was currently in.She'd been captured by two psychopathic killers, and if she didn't comply with their demands, not only would she be unable to protect the child in her womb, but she might also be unable to escape from there. No matter what, she had to hold on to her will to live. She had to do that for her child as a mother."My baby, I'll persevere until the end! I'll definitely hold out until your father comes to save us!" Erin vowed wordlessly."If there's anything I need, can I ask you?" Erin no longer made futile attempts of resistance and chose to reluctantly go with the flow.Jack replied, "Sure, you can ask. We'll fulfill it as long as it's within our means. Let me remind you of one thing—Tessa has a bad temper. Sometimes she needs tranquilizers to calm down. It's best if you don't mention anything about leaving again. We've planned this for so long, so we won't let you escape easily by chance.

    In the blink of an eye, an agonizing month had passed.At 5 am in the president's office of the towering Frost Building, Chandler stood by the window wall, having spent the entire night there. He'd hardly slept at all that whole month. A faint shade of blue tinged the area under his eyes. It was clearly a result of prolonged sleep deprivation.Chandler's perfect features appeared even more gaunt and pronounced, as he'd lost a staggering twenty pounds. Throughout this month, he'd developed gastritis due to not eating properly. The sole purpose of his meals each day was to maintain basic energy levels.The cigarette between his fingers had burned all the way to his flesh before he flicked the butt to the floor with delayed movements. The premium gray carpet was littered with countless cigarette butts.Lately, his addiction to smoking had grown worse. Unconsciously, he would smoke two packs a day.He drank obsessively to drown his sorrows every night, unable to sleep at night and rel

    Another month had passed.Ian drove a jeep with two bodyguards toward a village near the borders. He was going to meet an old village chief there. This village was located in a remote area with a sparse population. Most of the villagers there lived an isolated life. The total population of the entire village was not more than five hundred people.Just half a month ago, the only college student in this village organized a photography exhibition in a small city. As an unknown student photographer, he took some pictures depicting the local customs of his hometown. It wouldn't have attracted much attention, but Ian, who happened to be in the city for business, went to take a look at the exhibition accompanied by a local business tycoon.The reason was that the tycoon's own son had also taken some alternative and seemingly artsy photos. The tycoon wanted to show off his talented and artistic son, and a photography exhibition naturally served as a good publicity stunt. The collaboration p

    Right after he gave the instructions, Lamar stood up and walked toward his room.As soon as Lamar left, Zinka immediately approached Ian and whispered, "Mr. Sloan, you're really lucky! In the past three days, there have been at least ten men who came to meet Mr. Dempsey, but you're the first one he allowed to see Yvette. It seems looks do count. Haha! I'll go and bring Yvette out now."Zinka had just taken a few steps when she hurriedly turned back and advised, "By the way, I must remind you, if Yvette doesn't like you, even if you have a mountain of silver, it won't matter. Mr. Dempsey dotes on his only daughter the most. So, be prepared. If Yvette doesn't take a liking to you, you should leave the house before Mr. Dempsey wakes up from his nap."Ian remained polite and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Zinka. I understand."He respectfully watched Zinka leave.Lamar, who had been peeking from behind the curtain of his room, nodded and then quietly left. Once he was gone, so did

    After returning to the city, Ian put a hold on his work and visited Cherry with some imported health products from overseas.During this period, Cherry had been living alone in a small villa in the suburbs. She'd requested this herself. Originally, Chandler had arranged a luxurious mansion in the city for her, but Cherry politely declined.She stated that living in a city reminded her of her missing daughter, and it would only make her absence even more pronounced. She preferred living in the remote suburbs and leading a leisurely life. She would tend to her plants and keep herself busy by having a pet dog while waiting for Erin to come back so that she could take good care of her health when she came back.Ian arrived just in time for lunch. Cherry cooked an extra dish of beef and potatoes and had lunch with her former son-in-law in the living room.Looking at the gray hairs that became more and more obvious on Cherry's head, Ian suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart. He held h

    Reality was often cruel. Even though Erin's family, friends, and lover eagerly anticipated her return, no one found her, not even Chandler. She remained on the deserted island, imprisoned for a full eight months.Five months ago, Tessa brought Erin out to the sun because she was in an exceptionally good mood one day. Taking advantage of the moment Tessa let her guard down, Erin instinctively ran away.At that time, Tessa was so mad she was about to shoot Erin in her calf, but Jack stopped her just in time. He reasoned that Erin was pregnant, and if she got injured and couldn't receive proper medical treatment, they might not be able to handle the high fever and complications that would possibly arise out of a wound infection.They needed to exercise utmost caution due to her injury. Jack and Tessa had planned so long to have their own child. They couldn't adopt a child with various health complications at birth.Erin's escape attempt ended with Jack catching her and taking her back

    A week later, Erin felt immensely drowsy after finishing breakfast one day. Hence, she decided to lie down and rest.Although her body was thinner than before, her belly was large. She was approaching her due date. Erin slowly fell asleep while rubbing her belly in her drowsy state.Less than ten minutes later, Tessa, who had seen Erin passing out from the surveillance, arrived at the cell. Jack was also there. He was put in charge of carrying Erin into the operating room.Jack added a sedative to Erin's breakfast that morning to make her sleepy. The mushroom soup he served that day was creamy and flavorful, so Erin didn't detect anything was off with her meal."You don't need to come into the operating room later. I can handle it myself," Tessa stated impassively.Jack had just bent down to pick Erin up in his arms. He looked up at Tessa and said, "I know the surgery won't pose a challenge for you, but won't you be overwhelmed doing it alone? Let me help you."Tessa frowned and

    Shortly after Jack and Tessa left with the child, a highly coordinated group of mercenaries approached the stone door of the bomb shelter from different directions. The young man leading the group was Paulo Eastwood. He had a head of stylish silver hair that was cropped short. An ear stud with a ruby that was as red as blood could be seen on his right earlobe.He raised an eyebrow and glanced at the leather map in his hand. Immediately, a middle-aged man wearing a camouflage hat beside him suggested, "Mr. Eastwood, black smoke has been emanating from above the bomb shelter. It's safer to keep a distance. Should we send the mercenaries inside to investigate?"Paulo waved his right hand that was enveloped in a black leather glove and replied with a chuckle, "No need. I'm pretty sure that black smoke is due to the ancient wiring inside catching fire."He took large strides forward and said to the middle-aged man behind him, "Greg, wait outside with the others. If I don't come out aft

    Erin chuckled lightly as she said, "Enny would have married and fallen in love with another man sooner or later. "If that man is Paulo, I would be more than willing. Enny will be very happy in her life, and I'm at ease entrusting her to Paulo. And with Paulo being so wealthy, I don't have to worry about anyone coveting Enny's status or her family's power.""You make a good point!" Jill agreed."Jill, if your wedding with Ryder happens around the same time as Enny's, I'm afraid I won't have the energy to help you," Erin said worriedly."No worries, I don't want a wedding ceremony. Ryder and I just need to register our marriage. We've been living together for ten years anyway," Jill said.Erin nodded. "Yeah, that's fine. Weddings are quite tiring anyway, whether you have one or not."After chatting for a while, Jill heard Ryder's footsteps and said quickly, "Let's talk next time. He's coming in." …At 10:00 pm that day, Erin visited Chandler's office at his company.However, h

    Ryder turned around with skepticism etched across his face. "What could possibly be wrong? Look at how anxious you are."As she leaned against the doorway, Jill held her phone aloft. There was a challenging glint in her eyes. "If you can remain that calm after hearing this news, I'll play your game with you later.""Really?" Ryder raised an eyebrow, his tone filled with."Forget it if you don't trust me." She pretended to turn away.In a swift motion, Ryder closed the distance between them."I believe you. Now, tell me," Ryder said."Enny and Paulo have settled things," Jill announced with a smirk playing on her lips."Damn! Who told you?" Ryder's curiosity peaked.Jill waved her phone triumphantly. "This is exclusive insider information! Erin personally sent a WhatsApp message, see for yourself!"Ryder snatched the phone, his eyes scanning the message rapidly.The message read, "Enny was two months pregnant with Paulo's child, and the couple had visited Paulo's parents.

    Cyril looked at Paulo's departing figure and sighed. "Master is so good-looking. That's why Ms. Frost has been chasing him for so many years… Actually, Master and Ms. Frost really are a perfect match!"Only after Paulo's figure disappeared into the forest did Cyril turn around silently.He was suddenly startled. "Ms. Frost…""Why so guilty? I'm not some demoness who preys on monks!" Enny exclaimed.Cyril laughed. "Ms. Frost, you're really humorous…""I'm asking you, where is your master?" Enny demanded.Cyril hesitated and said, "I don't know where Master is."Enny called his bluff. "Liar!""I really don't know," insisted Cyril."Cyril, your master is going through the most difficult time of his life. As his capable assistant and disciple, you must help him!" insisted Enny.Enny's serious expression made Cyril ask curiously, "What trouble has Master encountered?""Well, he wants to be with me, but he's too embarrassed to ask. What should I do?" she asked."Does Master reall

    Many years later, on the day Enny got her ID card, she drove to Skycloud Mountain overnight.There was a temple on the top of Skycloud Mountain, and she was going to see someone there.By the time she struggled to the mountaintop, it was already 6:00 am the next day.Enny was dressed in black. She wore white hiking shoes with a duck tongue hat and her hair casually tied in a ponytail.Her beautiful, bare face had been a stumbling block on her path to growth.Every year, the number of men she rejected could fill several trucks.That was just among those who had the chance to approach her, while those who didn't could only watch from afar.Enny looked straight ahead, wiping the sweat that had trickled down her cheek.She took a deep breath and walked into the small, secluded temple that was cut off from the world.She finally arrived just in time on the day the new chief abbot took office. In fact, she was there to prevent the new abbot from entering the monastic life!Driven b

    Erin had planned to visit Matthew's "Thinkerin City" to buy a violin and visit him.But Matthew's shop was closed, so after waiting for half an hour with Enny, she went to another store to buy one.However, she happened to meet him on the street now.Matthew slowly pushed the wheelchair toward her.He was dressed very casually. He wore a plaid shirt with short sleeves, jeans, and branded sneakers.His simple style was a far cry from his rock star days.He looked somewhat thinner, his smile faint. "Erin, did you and Enny come to buy an instrument?""Yes, we bought Enny a violin. We actually wanted to visit your store." Erin's gaze drifted to Claire, who sat in the wheelchair.Matthew responded, "Sorry, I had to take Claire to get some medicine."Although Claire had been tragically affected by Matthew's obsessive fans years ago, she survived. However, she was left mentally incapacitated and was sometimes lucid for only a few hours.Matthew was loyal, taking it upon himself to c

    Chandler's appearance wasn't anything mysterious or an extraordinary entrance.It was filled with the usual beauty and romance of a typical wedding.After reaching Erin, he knelt on one knee with a face full of happiness, opened the ring box with both hands and looked up at her.He asked, "Erin, will you marry me again?"Erin's heart was filled with joy as she asked jokingly, "If I refuse, will you force me into a wedding dress and marry you?"He replied firmly, "Yes!""Since I have no choice, I suppose I must agree," she said with a smile. Erin extended her hand for Chandler to slide the engagement ring onto her finger."You will be Mrs. Frost for the rest of your life! Don't even think about escaping!" Chandler exclaimed."Ah, I won't run. I am willing to be a happy prisoner," Erin said self-deprecatingly.Ryder rolled his eyes, his expression full of sourness.Kylan caught his expression and patted his shoulder without saying a word.As Erin put on the ring, everyone pres

    Five minutes later, the doorbell rang again as Enny started doing Erin's makeup."I'll get it, Mom. You stay seated, okay?" Enny said."Fine, Mommy won't move." Erin winked at her. Seconds later, Enny shouted, "Godfather!""Enny! You look so beautiful!" The joy in the man's voice was palpable.Erin stood up and walked to the living room, knowing Sean had arrived.By then, Sean and another man had already entered.They closed the door behind them."Erin, I've brought a makeup artist for you," Sean said with a slight smile.The man beside him bowed politely to her. "Hello, Ms. Lane!""Maya, your male disguise is a total failure. You just slapped on some rough makeup without even wearing a realistic mask. You don't look like a man at all," Erin teased with a laugh.Maya couldn't help but laugh. "Mr. Frost's security measures are too strict. If I had worn a stranger's male mask, I wouldn't have been allowed in, and I would have been detained.""Why go through all the trouble o

    Meanwhile, Erin had just gone to open the door of her hotel room.To her surprise, the person at the door was Roman."Rom! It's really you!" Erin exclaimed with joy. Dressed in a tailored white suit, Roman held a bouquet and joked, "Do you need to check my face to make sure I'm not wearing a mask?""Haha! I know it's you! Come in and let's talk. Thank you for the flowers!" Erin took the bouquet he offered and invited him inside.A minute later, Roman was sitting on the couch.He looked out to the underwater world from the floor-to-ceiling windows and remarked, "Enny and Eddie must really love this room.""Yes, the kids could watch it all night. Chandler specifically chose this type of room for the children," Erin explained.As Erin placed the fresh flowers in a vase, Roman inquired, "Where's Chandler?"Erin replied, "You should know what he's busy with, right?"Roman's gaze turned indecipherable, his tone probing as he asked, "You already know?"Erin laughed. "Yes. Did it d

    Jill naturally denied it when she heard the question. "We didn't expose anything! Erin just happened to see us. What could we do? Pretend we don't know her? That's not realistic at all!""Did you really say nothing?" Ryder asked doubtfully.Calix was also skeptical as he questioned, "Erin is so sharp, and both of your acting skills are so poor. She must have figured it out."Tina exclaimed defensively, "We really didn't say anything! You two are so annoying! I'm dying of thirst here! Jill, hurry up and open the door. We can talk inside.""Yeah, I'm thirsty too," Jill echoed. She took out her room card, swiped it, and opened the door.The two women were about to close the door when Ryder stopped it with his hand. He asked, "What are you doing, not letting us in?""What are you coming in for? Don't you have your own room? Go away, we're going to take a nap!" Jill said grumpily."Taking a nap at this hour?
