Chapter 2284

Penulis: Gu Lingfei
When the children heard there were presents for them, they first looked at Quinn. Only when Quinn did not object that they followed Julian excitedly.

Julian opened the car door and reached into the car to bring out the gifts. He told them, “Your names are written on the gift box.”

Quinn heard him as she walked over. Surprised, she asked, “How do you know their names, Mr. Bucham?”

She only told him that she had brought twelve children to Wiltspoon for the competition and that there were six boys and girls, respectively. She never mentioned their names.

Julian said, “You said you all came for a competition. I had someone look into it and found the children’s names. Everyone has a gift, and each is unique. They can hold onto the gifts and unbox them after the meal.”

The children were delighted to receive presents that were luxuriously wrapped.

Julian had left his assistants in charge of the gifts. The attentive assistants looked into the children’s preferences and prepared their gi

    Quinn replied with a hum. Even though she felt the car looked brand new, as if fresh out of the factory, she did not probe because Julian said this was a car from his garage.Quinn supposed it looked new as Julian rarely drove such an inconspicuous car. He probably would not buy a new car just to transport the presents, right?Julian brought Quinn and the children to a private room he reserved. After everyone was seated, he gestured for the waiter to hand the menu to Quinn. Quinn said, “The children and I aren’t picky, Mr. Bucham. You’re probably more familiar with what’s good here, so it’s better if you order.”“Haven’t you been having your meals in the hotel?”“We have, but we usually eat in the buffet hall on the first floor. I think there’s more variety there. Everyone can eat whatever they want, and the children like it too. I told them to take only as much as they could eat and not waste any food.”Julian grinned. “You’re right. We shouldn’t waste food and take only a

    “You saved my life, Ms. Crawford. Treating you to a meal isn’t enough. I should return the favor with much more,” Julian said.Quinn changed the topic, saying, “How are the robbers doing now? How many years of jail time will they get?”“They’re all in prison now. I’m not sure how long their sentence will be, but it’ll be several years at least for robbery.”Julian did not even bat an eye as he lied. His subordinates were indeed somewhere. They were not in prison though, they were receiving treatment at the hospital. They were either beaten up by Quinn or injured from a fall. Simply speaking, Quinn had defeated all of his subordinates. They were in awe of their future missus. Quinn said, “You were unlucky. I heard Wiltspoon is a safe place. There haven’t been motorcycle gangs in many years, but you just happened to meet one of them.”Julian laughed. “I think they’re the ones who got unlucky. They ran into you, the chivalrous Ms. Crawford, as soon as they appeared. You saved

    Quinn was tempted.She said, “I’ll think about it. It’s someone else’s house. We’ll be a disturbance if we have fun there.”More importantly, she had to bring twelve students everywhere with her. She could not ditch them and have fun herself.“It’s really fine. If you’re worried about the noise, I can send Zachary a message for his opinion now.”Julian was going all out to secure time with Quinn.He immediately sent a message to Zachary.However, he typed another message before that. He told Zachary he was pursuing someone, asked for his help, and requested him not to reveal his identity.Quinn was likely clueless about the Buchams’ background.Julian did not want her to find out as he was afraid of scaring her off.If Quinn discovered the Bucham family’s true nature and that he was the young master, she would have guessed that he had her investigated before.Her impression of him would be ruined.Quinn was the only woman in the world who could move his heart and make him a

    Zachary grabbed Serenity’s shoulders and let her lean against him. Wanting to please her, he said, “Honey, let’s go on a holiday soon, okay? Just the two of us.”“Where are we going?”Serenity’s attention was successfully diverted. “We’ll remain in Wiltspoon, but we’re going to another estate I own that you haven’t been to.”“Aren’t we going to wait until after the wedding? If we can’t go someplace far, our honeymoon can be a drive around Wiltspoon.”Zachary remembered that their wedding ceremony would be held after their anniversary. Although both occasions could be celebrated together, they held different meanings. He said, “It’ll be a two-day holiday. We can go on a drive after our wedding too. I have one month off.”“I can imagine how furious Josh will get.”“I granted him two months off when he got married while only taking a month off for myself now. He shouldn’t be angry about this.”Serenity smiled. “Okay. You can make the necessary arrangements.”She knew Zachary wan

    “What’s your decision, Ms. Crawford?”Julian asked Quinn whether she wanted to go to Wildridge Manor. Quinn searched for images of the manor on her phone, but nothing came up. “Why can’t I find any pictures of Wildridge Manor?”“That’s for sure. It’s the York family’s manor. How can they let just anyone take pictures when that’s where they live? I can guarantee that you won’t regret visiting the manor.”Since Julian already obtained Zachary’s permission, Quinn agreed as she was also interested in the York family. “Let’s visit the place then. Are you free tomorrow, Mr. Bucham? I wish to bring the children there tomorrow.”“I’m free anytime. I don’t have to be at the company daily anyway. I call the shots, so no one has a say in what I do.”There was truly no one who could control him, except for his parents.“What will you guys be doing this evening?” Julian asked. “I’m taking the kids to a nearby park for a walk. We saw a huge park nearby when we were on the bus. There were

    Quinn agreed with Julian. They chatted during the meal like they were old friends. Julian’s personality was similar to Quinn’s, so they got along well. He was glad that the woman destined for him was a perfect match in every way.…Meanwhile, at Johnson Group, a subsidiary of FC & Co., where Remy was in charge of the company. He was the CEO assigned by the headquarters to be stationed at Wiltspoon long-term.Remy returned to the company from the Stones’ villa in the evening.Everyone noticed that their boss’s mood had changed. There was a serious expression on his handsome face. Who offended Mr. Johnson?Remy was the most easy-going person among the men of the Johnsons. He would smile at everyone, even when he was talking. With that, people let their guard down unconsciously. He rarely looked tense or had stern expressions. Did something serious happen in the company?Everyone had their guesses, but no one dared to ask. They worked harder than usual that day, fearing so

    Ben asked, “What happened?”Elisa was Remy’s girlfriend, and they often showed up as a pair. Why would Walter propose marriage to the Stones?“Remy, should I inform our grandparents and parents about this? We can prepare some gifts and pay the Stones a visit to ask for their daughter’s hand in marriage as well.”Ben felt his family was not inferior to the Buchams, and his brother was not lacking compared to Julian too. Remy had never sought help from his family when it came to matters related to him and Elisa. His parents, brothers, and sisters-in-law were concerned about his love life. He told them not to worry and that he would definitely win the heart of the girl he loved. He would marry her and spoil her. Since he said so, his family did not interfere and simply waited for his news. Otherwise, based on Antonia’s personality, she would have been desperate to fly to Wiltspoon with a marriage proposal on behalf of her youngest son. However, Remy said the timing was not ri

    Ben had a more challenging time. “Getting engaged first isn’t a bad idea.”Remy suddenly felt getting married right away was unrealistic. He and Elisa could be like Callum and Camryn. They could get engaged and hold an engagement party first. Every influential figure in Wiltspoon would be invited. That way, everyone would know that Elisa was his fiancée. By then, he dared anyone to still be his love rival. “Mm, we’ll definitely get it settled for you two. Don’t worry.”After confiding in Ben and seeking his family’s assistance, Remy felt slightly more at ease. His family was great. As long as they worked together, they could surely get Audrey to approve of his and Elisa’s marriage. If that still could not work, his grandparents could intervene as well. At that moment, someone knocked on the door. Remy said, “Ben, I have a guest. I’ll have to hang up now. You can tell Jane to start preparing some gifts with Mom.”“Okay. You can go on with your stuff.

    Adrian and his brothers finally heard footsteps. They instinctively turned their heads, only to see a group of people, who were already very close, approaching.“Police! Hands up, don’t move!”Upon realizing they had been spotted, the officer leading the charge immediately shouted, drawing his gun and pointing it at Adrian and the others.The police had learned from the Dott brothers that the kidnappers were armed.The officers following Darren were from an armed unit and carried guns.Jason’s mind went blank. He could not form a single coherent thought.How had the police caught up?They had scouted the location beforehand, ensuring it was remote and quiet. It was somewhere no one would come even during the day, let alone at night.Adrian reacted the fastest. He immediately bent down to pick up the kitchen knife, intending to kill Caroline.All he could think then was that even if he died, he wanted to take Caroline with him. As long as Caroline died, he would consider it wor

    Justin, seeing his eldest brother approach with the kitchen knife, hesitated and asked, “Adrian, are we really going to do this?”“What, are you having second thoughts at this stage, like Jason? Justin, we didn’t even cover our faces. She knows it’s us. If we let her go now, we’re the ones who will die.“Think about it. How much have we suffered ever since she came back? How much have we lost? Even Mom’s dead now.”When their mother was alive, the three brothers lived carefree and comfortable lives. Now that she was gone, they were nothing.Hearing this, Justin quickly said, “Adrian, I’m not having second thoughts. It’s just… We don’t have to use the knife. We can just throw her into the sea. With her hands and feet tied, she won’t be able to escape.“The deep sea is full of fish. She’ll be eaten by a big fish soon, which will leave no trace. That’s better than us using the knife.”The main reason was that none of them had killed anyone before. Although they had done other bad th

    Her indifference, as if she did not care whether they killed her or not, infuriated her three brothers.Adrian stood up, turned around, and walked to the back of the car. He opened the trunk.Inside the trunk were two sharpened kitchen knives.“Adrian.” Jason walked over, his voice trembling slightly. It was his first time committing murder, and killing his own sister at that. Jason was a bit scared.“Adrian, are we really going to… chop her up?”Adrian picked up one of the kitchen knives and glared at Jason. “What? Are you having second thoughts? Or are you scared?”“Well… It’s my first time killing someone. I am a bit scared. Carol is our sister, after all. I... I can’t bring myself to do it.”Adrian snorted coldly. “You think of her as a sister, but she doesn’t see us as brothers. Look at what she’s done—every single thing has been a stab in the back for us.“When it comes to using a knife, once you make the first cut, the second one won’t be so hard.”Adrian handed the kit

    There were still traces of blood at the corners of her mouth and under her nose.Justin and Jason worked together to pull Caroline out, and Adrian immediately tied her legs together before binding her hands behind her back.“Are you going to feed me to the fish, Adrian?”Hearing the sound of the waves and feeling the cold sea breeze, Caroline shivered.She did not stand up and remained lying on the ground.Adrian kicked her several times, venting his pent-up anger.Caroline silently endured it.After kicking her a few times, Adrian squatted, gripping Caroline's chin forcefully with one hand, and said coldly, “Caroline, there’s nothing more to say between us.“Don’t blame us for being heartless. You’re the one who pushed us to this point.“You only have yourself to blame.“Where are the passwords and keys to Mom's private assets? Tell us, and we’ll make it quick for you, so you won’t suffer too much.“If you don’t, we have plenty of time to slowly cut you piece by piece and m

    “We can’t just keep giving them money, now can we?”Adrian replied, “That’s not a priority for now. We can burn that bridge when we come to it. If they do dare blackmail us, we’ll just send them on to meet their maker.“The only thing is they both have families. If we kill them, we have to kill their families too. That way, there’ll be no one who’ll report it to the police.“And it’s best to make it seem like an accident too, or else it’ll seem suspicious.”Justin and Jason both felt Adrian was right. If they were going to kill the Dott brothers, they might as well kill their families too.Caroline internally cursed how merciless they were. The Dott brothers thought they could earn some money from Adrian to live a better life but little did they know, it would bring destruction upon themselves and their families.What the Clark brothers did not know was that the Dotts were forced to say what they did earlier.It was not that they had not left yet. Rather, they could not, because

    Belinda had done everything other mothers would have. She loved them, yet the three of them had gotten a smaller portion of her wealth than their own children did. Indeed, Belinda left her grandchildren with more money.After all, her grandchildren still had a long life ahead of them.Therefore, she distributed more wealth to them. The Clark brothers loved spending lavishly and kept losing money whenever they tried to establish businesses. They also had many mistresses and never hesitated to spend money on them. Belinda was partial toward her sons about their affairs and also persuaded her daughters-in-law not to get a divorce. In truth, she resented her three sons for being promiscuous and inheriting their father’s flirtatious traits. While Hunter may have been interested in other girls, he dared not cheat on Belinda because she was strict. However, he still had an affair the moment he spotted an opportunity.Later, Belinda chased the Clark brothers’ mistresses out of

    Celine, whom they had cared for all long, was not their biological sister but the daughter of the previous butler. Celine’s father was ambitious. He tried making his daughter the Fisher family’s successor. Justin was speechless.“Free me, Jason. I’m already in your hands. Are you still scared that I’ll escape? Let me out. It’s too stuffy in the sack. I feel terrible.”Caroline made a request. Jason seemed to be the one with some lingering feelings for his sibling. Well, that was not really the case.If he truly had even a sliver of sibling love for Caroline, he would have stopped Adrian and Justin from kidnapping her instead of joining the plan. If Caroline had been fortunate, she could have had five brothers doting on her. Sadly, she was unlucky. None of the five brothers had cared for her. They all wanted her dead. Was she a failure as a person, or were they too cruel?Jason said, “Just stay put, Caroline. We’ll let you out when we arrive.”They could not release Car

    Caroline could not beat them. Then, her mouth was gagged with a cloth, and her head was covered with a sack. Someone forced her into a car. She heard Adrian saying to his brothers, “Let’s go.“Tell Celine’s brothers to follow us. Assign a few people to clean up and leave quickly.”After that, Caroline heard the sound of an engine starting. The car moved. She could not see what was happening. While she was shoved into the backseat, her arms and legs were unbound. She removed the cloth from her mouth but not the sack from her head.Someone held the sack tightly and started hitting and kicking her. “Tie the sack, Justin,” said Jason in a hurry. The person beating her up was Justin. “I know it’s you guys, Justin and Jason. What are you doing? Let me go. Mmph…”Caroline grunted in pain. She suffered a punch from Justin. She held her head tightly to prevent any injury to it. Many blows landed on her body. “It’s fine even if you know it’s us, Caroline. You better stay

    “Ms. Caroline.”The bodyguards looked toward Caroline. Caroline opened her eyes and said calmly, “Stop the car, but don’t get out. Only get out when the situation gets out of hand. Remember to protect yourselves.”“Ms. Caroline…”“I’ll keep myself safe. Don’t worry. I treasure my life. There’s still a long life ahead of me. I haven’t even started enjoying good days. I won’t want to die.”Caroline chuckled, but her smile did not reach her eyes. There was sorrow in those eyes. In the end, she and her brothers could not coexist. It made her realize how bad her luck was with families. She was switched at birth and mistreated by her adoptive family. She thought her biological parents would treat her well after returning to them, but it turned out to be the opposite. Caroline had many family members, yet somehow, she was still alone. The people who truly cared about her were Darren, Liberty, and some others. Caroline’s bodyguards knew she had been waiting for that moment.
