Chapter 3691

Author: Gu Lingfei
Belinda dragged her hostage upstairs up to the top floor. It was a good distance from the crowd downstairs and they had backed up quite far. The gun she had could not shoot that far, so she would not hit anyone even if she fired. All she could do was threaten the crowd that if anyone approached the door, she would fire. If she fired at the door from the top floor, she could still hit someone.

The hostage was knocked out, so she could free a hand to call Mr. Gordon and get him to save her. If she could not take everyone down with her, then she did not want to die anymore. She wanted to escape. She had a small helicopter. If Gordon flew it over, he could save her from her dire straits. The policemen below had already called their superiors, asking for backup and snipers.

“Mom, let her go and put down the gun! I’m begging you, please don’t go any further down this path.” Caroline ran forward fearlessly, shouting up at her mother from several meters away, pleading for her to stop. She ur

    Audrey also reached out to pull Caroline to her side and she said, “Liberty’s right. Don’t go inside. Look at her. When she shot your father, she pulled the trigger without any hesitation. She’s gone mad.”Hunter had fainted from the pain of the gunshot. Adrian and his brothers were frozen from shock, not having expected their mother to actually shoot their father. When they saw that she even fired at Caroline, the three brothers were even less inclined to step forward, fearing dearly that their mother would shoot to kill them without a care that they were her sons. They stayed by Hunter’s side, waiting for the paramedics to arrive to send their father to the emergency room.Caroline’s eyes reddened as she looked up at Belinda, standing by the rooftop balcony railing. She broke free of Audrey’s grip and ran to the front of the crowd once more, kneeling with a loud sound. She banged her head against the ground, kowtowing as she cried out, “Mom, please, I’m begging you—don’t continue

    True—no matter how capable Mr. Gordon was, he was still human, after all. He was an elderly man himself, being older than her by a few years, and was almost eighty years old. He continued working tirelessly for her. No matter how outstanding he was, he could not compete with the younger ones in Zachary’s generation. He was not a god.Take Patrick for example; had he not been impressive? Even then, he was pushed to the limit by the assassins she sent back then and almost died. Even though he survived, he sustained severe injuries that gave him recurring pain and illness over the years. If Doc had not been the one who saved him, there was no way he would have lived to see this day.Belinda still could not believe she was at the end of her rope. She called Mr. Gordon again. The call seemed to connect, but he did not pick up. It rang for a long time and still, he did not answer. After it stopped, Belinda called again but still got the same result.Belinda's heart felt like it had plumme

    They were so far away that she could not even see their features clearly. Who could she hit with her two remaining bullets? The only possible target was herself. She peered at the family member she had taken hostage and recognized the young lady, who was a fairly capable woman. If the girl was kept alive, then she would be a threat to Caroline. Belinda felt she should kill the girl.On second thought, under the current circumstances, Caroline might not be able to become the head of the family. She would keep these capable family members alive then, to make things difficult for Liberty.Liberty only had workplace experience before getting married and having children, which caused her to disconnect from society for a few years. After her divorce, she started anew with a breakfast diner business. Later, she opened a restaurant, but the scope was still limited. It was not until she came to Jensburg and established a new company that she truly entered the business world, and her experie

    “Mom, don’t!” Caroline screamed, but a gunshot resounded just as she was about to rush over to Belinda. All she could do was watch her mother slowly fall limp.“Mom!” Caroline rushed forward, barely managing to catch her mother as she collapsed. The gun slipped from Belinda’s hand and fell to the ground.“Mom… Mom!” Caroline cried as she hugged her mother’s body. Belinda's eyes were open and she gazed at her daughter, seeming to want to say something but unable to. At that moment, she seemed to see her sisters. Tiara was looking at her with a stern expression and Alivia looked livid. They were understandably angry; she had betrayed them. “Tiara… I'm sorry...” Belinda whispered weakly. Her eyes began to close slowly, but a faint smile appeared on her face. She felt a sense of relief wash over her. She could finally go to her sisters and apologize. She was wrong! She should not have caused her sisters’ deaths in her pursuit of power and influence. Their parents had passed away ea

    Mr. Gordon murmured softly. He gave a bow toward the main house, a long deep bow, then he rose and turned to leave. His subordinates, confused, followed him out. Once outside the manor, Mr. Gordon got into his car alone, dismissing them from following him, and drove away into the night.As darkness fell, it marked the end of the darkest hour, giving way to light.It was a new day. The news of Belinda’s suicide dominated all media in Jensburg. Numerous reports circulated about her past, detailing how she had harmed her sisters. Speculations also emerged about her jealousy toward Tiara and her unrequited love for Mr. Foster, Tiara’s assistant, which had allegedly driven her to betray her family.The whole city was talking about it. All members of the Fisher family received inquiries from friends and acquaintances, while Fisher Enterprise was also rife with unrest. Caroline announced a week-long break in their work group chat, instructing senior management to notify everyone. The entir

    Kevin was in the president’s office of Queen Enterprise accompanying his fiancée, Hayden. Liberty had returned to her office. She had not handled much work in the past few days, and the tasks that needed her attention had piled up. She needed to deal with everything quickly so she could take some time off for Christmas and return to Wiltspoon to celebrate. Her son and sister were still at FC Manor, so she was considering flying to Annenburg with Zachary to pick them up before heading back to Wiltspoon for the festivities. After a busy year, Christmas was one of the few times she could truly relax. As for the issues with the Fisher family, they could wait until after the holiday. After Christmas, she would be particularly busy, especially when Serenity gave birth. As a family member, she would definitely be waiting outside the delivery room. However, she had to deal with all the important matters in advance so she could take off when the time came.At this moment, however, Liberty

    “Mom, I’m not comparing myself to Laurence. I’m just copying the medical words to keep him company so he doesn’t get bored alone.” They were good friends, after all. Plus, his Aunt Seren had told him that joining Laurence was beneficial for him, and aside from his mother, she was the person who treated him the best, so he trusted her completely. Since Serenity said it was harmless, he would do it. He could practice his writing while he was at it. By the time school started again after Christmas break, he would be able to write beautifully and outshine his wealthy classmates.“Right, no need to compare. Have you been having fun these past couple of days?” Liberty asked gently.Sonny replied, “Yes! I’m so happy that I don’t even want to go home. Aunt Ser says I’m a, uh….”“You’re a happy-go-lucky one, huh.”“Yeah, yeah, that’s it! Happy-go-lucky.”Serenity had explained the meaning of the phrase to him, and he understood it to some extent. “Mom, when are you coming back?” Sonny

    “Really? You’re coming back next week?” Sonny shouted happily. “Mom, is it almost Christmas? I want to set off fireworks!”“We can’t set off fireworks,” Liberty replied. “If you want to see fireworks, we’ll have to go to Wildridge Manor to see them.”At the foot of the hill Wildridge Manor was situated on, there was a large lawn where fireworks could be set off. In other places, it was not suitable due to the risk of fire. Fireworks were prohibited in the city, but they were not banned in rural areas. However, she could not possibly take her son back to the Hunts’ home for Christmas. Their parents' old house was still occupied by their grandparents.Before Christmas, though, the sisters might have to visit their hometown. No matter how estranged they were, the old Hunt couple were still their grandparents. They should bring some Christmas gifts and a little money for the two elders for the holiday, but nothing more.“That’s settled then!” Sonny immediately decided they would go to

    Imogen did not know that Dylan had woken up. She was still on the phone with Maria outside.Maria felt reassured when Imogen mentioned that the person she liked was a member of the richest family in Wiltspoon. All was good as long as he was not a social climber. Imogen asked, “Maria, when are you coming back? It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other. Kade will be back soon. Are you really not coming back?“Maria, Kade and I are like siblings. Please don’t misunderstand or overthink it. Actually, you should know this—the person Kade likes is you. You two are the real childhood sweethearts, you grew up together.”Imogen and her mother’s godchildren had known each other since they were young, but the three of them had not actually spent much time together as she had always stayed with her master while she learned the trade, only returning home during the summer and winter holidays.Once the holidays ended, she would leave again.

    There were so many other possible choices. Why were they so fixated on him?Leticia sighed. “Alright, just pretend I never said that. You youngsters will decide for yourselves anyway, we don’t have a say in it. Remember to fetch Kade from the airport on Saturday.“I’ve already told him and he knows you’re supposed to be picking him up. And remember to get some flowers too. You two haven’t met in ages and you should give flowers at a reunion.” She reminded Imogen.“Mom, I can pick him up, fine, but I’m not giving him flowers. Who said you’re supposed to give flowers at a reunion?” Imogen refused to give Kade flowers when fetching him from the airport. “Oh, Mom, I gotta go. Bye!”Imogen quickly hung up, not allowing her mother the chance to speak further. Then, after a moment of thought, she texted Kade to ask when he was expected to arrive at Huntington Airport.It took a while before Kade replied that he would arrive around eleven in the morning on Saturday.Imogen replied wi

    “I know you only view Kade as a brother, but who knows, if you nurture the relationship, those feelings might turn romantic? Jen, before you agree to be with Dylan, give yourself another option.“Make Dylan nervous. He’ll get jealous. He was jealous when he overheard our conversation that day.“You need to make him realize that even without him, you can still marry well. The Butchers like you a lot, and our families have a close relationship. You and Kade have known each other since you were young, so you guys could be considered childhood sweethearts.”Imogen said weakly, “Mom, I’m worried that if I get too close to Kade, not only will Dylan misunderstand, but even Maria might misunderstand. Kade and she are a thing, after all.“I really don’t understand what’s going on with Kade. He and Maria clearly have feelings for each other, they just haven’t made it official yet. Don’t their families see this?”She did not have any romantic feelings for Kade, but both families were trying

    Although Leticia was angry over how Dylan had treated her daughter previously, at least he was not two-timing. He made things clear to Imogen right after realizing his feelings and stopped her from loving him. He still had a decent character.Besides, Imogen had also kept secrets from Dylan and she tricked him. Dylan still did not have sufficient evidence to prove that Imogen was the Chameleon Fox he loved. Dylan would start pursuing Imogen again after some time. Leticia heard that it was Serenity who had given Dylan a hint that Sugar was Fox.

    “Please look after Dylan, Imogen. Message me when he gets better. I just need to know that he’s alive.”Grandma May knew Dylan would be okay with Imogen by his side.Imogen quickly said, “Don’t hang up yet, Grandma May. Where are you now? Wiltspoon?“If it’s convenient, please get his parents to come and take care of Dylan. I’m busy with work. I can’t stay in the hospital to look after him.”Grandma May replied, “His dad is home, but he doesn’t know how to take care of others. I think Dylan will meet his death quicker under his dad’s care.“My daughters-in-law and I are at the Johnson family’s place in Annenburg. We won’t be back that soon because we just came not long ago. We’ll head back closer to Seren’s due date. That’s why we don’t have time to look after Dylan.“If you’re busy, you can return to work once Dylan’s fever breaks, Imogen. You don’t have to care about him. He can take care of himself. It’s just like a bad cold. He’ll be fine once his fever subsides.”Grandma Ma

    Imogen should have gone to stop Dylan earlier than she had. Since Layla was helping Imogen to get revenge, Imogen thought she would let Dylan put on a show to display his sincerity. She could only stop Dylan once Layla was satisfied.After handling the hospitalization procedures, Dylan lay on the bed and received an IV drip. Meanwhile, Imogen brought him water and told him to take his medicine.“Take this medicine for your fever. Your face is red from the heat.”Dylan’s temperature was close to 103 degrees Fahrenheit when they measured it at the hospital. He would cough constantly, and his face was flushed red from the fever. He looked tired and weak as well. Dylan sat up and accepted the glass of water. Imogen handed him the right dosage of medicine according to the doctor’s prescription.“Make sure you’re hydrated.”Imogen refilled his glass and told him to drink more water.“I don’t want to drink water.”Dylan lay back down.Perhaps because he was on an IV drip, his

    Dalton said, “Callum spoils you a lot too. Many people are envious of you two.”Camryn smiled. “You’re right. Our lives are objects of envy to other people.“You can head back to work, Dalton.”“Okay.”Camryn saw Dalton out. She sat for a few minutes before returning to her desk to continue working.Meanwhile, in Huntington, Dylan was coughing badly. He quickly grabbed the glass of water Imogen had just offered him and took a few sips. After moistening his throat, he stopped coughing. However, he started coughing again after a few minutes. Imogen said, “Why is your cough getting worse after seeing the doctor and taking medicine?”“Ah…”Dylan pointed at his throat. He could not speak. His throat was badly inflamed from eating excessive chili peppers. His voice was so hoarse that he could not talk, and he was hacking non-stop. Imogen had already brought him to a doctor, who had prescribed some medication for him. However, his condition was so bad that the medication was no

    “Did you think of your mother again?”Dalton said gently, “It wasn’t your fault, Camryn. You don’t have to overthink it or care about how she treated you. You have loving in-laws now. You’re like a daughter to them.“Your husband dotes on you a lot too. I believe there’ll be better days ahead of you. As for your mother… Let her regret what she did.”He had never seen a mother like Mrs. Newman. There were many biased mothers, but not many of them were as evil as Mrs. Newman.“She does feel regret. However, it isn’t because she had hurt me, but because she gave birth to me. She regretted not getting an abortion or strangling me to death after giving birth to me.“She said I was the bane of her existence. She had gone to a psychic when she was pregnant with me. The psychic said I was an unlucky child who would bring bad luck to my parents and that if she didn’t kill me after I was born, I would become her downfall.“My mom was just finding excuses for herself. How would I be her d

    “It’s getting better. Don’t worry, Dal. Dr. Carden will be here to check on me after some time and adjust my prescription. She said I’d be able to get pregnant after two years.“Dr. Carden is the legendary doctor’s best student. I trust her skills. She was the one who helped me to regain my sight.”Camryn reassured Dalton. “You just have to take good care of Melissa and tell her not to worry about me. I believe the heavens won’t take away my right to be a mother.”If Dr. Carden said she was infertile, then it would be impossible to get pregnant. However, Dr. Carden had guaranteed that Camryn could give birth after two years of recuperation. Therefore, Camryn was at ease.“Even if I can’t get pregnant, Callum won’t divorce me. He said we could adopt if it didn’t work out.“He and his family didn’t give up on me when I was blind. I believe my in-laws won’t abandon me just because I can’t get pregnant, Dalton. Besides, I’m not actually infertile.”Camryn knew Dalton and Melissa we
