During the violent turbulence, Erin and Ian clasped their hands tightly and prayed for their safety. In that frightening moment, Erin could only think of her parents, Chandler, Asa, and her friends like Holly and Roman.Their faces flashed across her mind, and she wanted to live a long life with them.Meanwhile, Ian was filled with regrets for stubbornly abducting Erin. He had a chance to go for treatment, so why did he have to hurt her? Why did he insist on abducting her and putting her on a flight to Conella Island?He finally realized that he didn't want her to die with him. Erin was a lovely and kind woman who deserved a long life with her family."Erin, I'm sorry!" he yelled at her with tears in his eyes. He prayed hard for their safety, and he decided he'd set her free if they landed.She gave him a nod in silence. Their fingers were entwined. At that moment, she treated him as her family as well.Indeed, they were once family.They shut their eyes and recalled the most
It was drizzling at 3 pm two days later. The sky was gloomy as the cold wind blew.Ian's body was brought home by Erin from McGregor International Airport. She used Ian's private plane.To not waste time traveling, Chandler did not escort Erin back himself. He chose to pick her up at the airport instead.Ian's funeral arrangements were made after Chandler called his mother, Mary.Ian had already passed away, and Chandler could not possibly settle scores with a dead person anyway. He then chose to be a bigger person out of respect for the dead.Mary was very touched after she learned that Erin had put the past behind her and brought Ian's body home.Mary knew for a long time that her son was terminally ill. She just did not expect that the time she said goodbye to her son at the Liberty General Hospital would be their last.As she was grief-stricken, her surgery to remove the tumor was postponed. Ian's funeral was taken care of by Erin and Chandler as well.After the funeral,
Upon hearing Irving's words, Yvette immediately stood up in fear. She understood what he meant.If she did not cooperate, Irving would pin the murder on her!Yvette saw that he was wearing leather gloves. That meant the weapon did not have his fingerprints.If he were to knock her out, stuff the weapon in her hand, and go to the police, she would not be able to explain herself."Where should we dump the bodies?" Yvette forced herself to calm down. At a moment like that, she could not care about her innocent driver and assistant who were killed. All she wanted was to save herself.Irving immediately put the driver's body over his shoulder and said, "You're in charge of dragging the woman away. I've already picked out the place to hide the bodies. Just follow me."Yvette turned pale as he watched Irving leave. She finally figured out what he was trying to do. He wanted to make her his accomplice, so they would be completely bound together from then on.She desperately wanted him
Hans frowned. He was a little furious as he said, "It's a pity that there were no call records between Elvis and Axton at all! Nothing came out of Elvis' interrogation. "It's possible that their dealings were done in cash. Also, Elvis had a strong alibi when Axton died. According to our informant, this driver of Clifford's is really not easy to mess with.""Hmph! It seems that Clifford got himself a useful person as well." Chandler's gaze darkened. He was thinking of how he should find evidence on Clifford.Unfortunately, Clifford seemed to have suddenly become smart. He was so meticulous, even the beautiful bodyguards Chandler secretly sent were no longer useful. They could not get any information out of Clifford.He did not even go to clubs to spend recklessly anymore.He was already the supposed heir of Soaring Electronics Corporation at that moment. His father, Barney, even spent a billion dollars investing in properties for him.That pissed Angela off so much her body sho
Erin immediately turned to look at Chandler. She was thinking that this lustful man really had the guts to ask about anything. It was truly different to be a boss. No topics were off-limits for him.Erin pretended to not care, but her ears were actually pricked up for Kyle's and Hans' answers. As expected, she was badly influenced by Chandler."What's the matter? Are you guys mute? You're not telling me, are you? I'll take away your bonus at the end of this year then." Chandler's tone was slightly cold when he said that."I'll tell you, sir! I've not slept with anybody ever since I broke up with my ex-girlfriend …"Kyle was the first to speak as he could not hold it in anymore.He was planning to use his year-end bonus and his savings to buy a duplex apartment. He wanted to buy an apartment outright before he officially started to go after Holly.That way, he could avoid being disliked by Holly's wealthy parents for being a poor man without his own place.Chandler looked at
Erin's face immediately turned pale. She did not expect that Paulo would punish the woman like that.He did not beat her to death to vent his anger. He gave her such a bloody and cruel punishment instead. Erin felt a chill down her spine when she heard that!That woman was truly despicable, but it was quite terrible for her to be tortured by Paulo like that.Paulo truly was having a very terrible mental state."Jenny, I'll go to the Garden of Eden as soon as I can! Call me if there's anything!" said Erin."Alright, Ms. Lane. I'll be waiting for you."Chandler's gaze darkened and his face was sullen after Erin hung up the call. He was sitting very close to Erin. Her conversation with Jenny was uninterrupted as well. So, Chandler heard everything very clearly.He looked at her from the corner of his eye. His gaze was filled with concern. "Are you really going to the Garden of Eden?"With a heavy heart, Erin said, "You've heard it too, right? Paulo's situation now is very worryi
After Yvette shouted, Mary stood up as she got unusually worked up as well. She pointed at Simon while her fingers shook and cursed, "You're such a scammer! How dare you change my son's will?"She roared, "I absolutely don't believe my son would only give me a billion dollars! I am his mother! How could that bitch, Erin, deserve to get five billion dollars? I'm going to sue you guys!"Simon was still sitting on his chair without budging. He was calm and collected like a professional lawyer.He had long been numbed by the uproar caused by the reading of the will.He absolutely was not angered by Mary's and Yvette's hysterics at all. He only glanced at Erin's expression.He saw that Erin's gaze was complicated. She had secretly concealed how shocked she felt. Erin did not look happy at all. She suddenly became a wealthy woman, but she had a strange expression instead. It was as if the situation was a hot potato to her.Even for Simon, five billion dollars was a hefty fortune.
Erin was stunned by his words.Why did he suddenly mention her?At that moment, Simon's handsome face was very close to hers. She could even feel his warm breath on her face, which made her heart pound like crazy.Both of them got themselves into such an awkward and suggestive situation by accident.Erin had always wanted to keep a distance from Simon.But she was there for the reading of Ian's will that day. There was just no way for her to avoid him."Let go of me!" Erin's tone was cold and she did not look at him."Erin, do you not have the guts to look at me?" The way he asked was a little aggressive.Erin pretended to be calm and said, "You're not calm enough now. Let's stop talking about Holly."Simon curled his lip. "How could you tell I'm not calm enough?"The fact that he would not let it go made her feel helpless. She sighed and said, "Simon, don't forget who I am. I'm not just Holly's best friend. I'm also your brother's wife. Get yourself away from me! Don't you k
