Chapter 947

Author: Eggsoup
The men were instantly disappointed.

However, they soon recovered their composure and teased, "I've never seen such a beautiful woman in Glanchester before. Where did you find her?"

"Yeah, hurry up and tell us."

"..."

Zach looked at Sylvia, whose thoughts were obviously preoccupied. Her eyes were looking around.

He said, "We met in Westchester City."

"I see. Which part of Westchester is she from?"

Zach showed an unhappy expression. "Are you trying to interrogate her?"

As soon as he said that, the two other men quickly scolded the man who had just spoken.

"Exactly. What has it got to do with you where Ms. Ross is from?"

"If Ms. Ross is your type, you can go to Westchester to find another one yourself."

"..."

The women accompanying them rolled their eyes, and one lady even directly turned her head and left in anger.

The men who saw this stopped teasing Zach and quickly went to chase after their dates.

Zach and Sylvia found a place to settle down.

    After they went far away, Sylvia got up and walked out.She walked in the direction they came from and headed further in.The further she went, the quieter it became, most likely because people went to the front grounds. She could even clearly hear the sounds of birds chirping.After a while, she saw a courtyard behind a wall, blocked by a group of bodyguards.The courtyard was similar to the ones she saw along the way here, but it was obviously much larger than the others. Furthermore, the walls were quite high, so she could not climb over them.This courtyard should be long to John and was where he locked up Sherry.Sylvia narrowed her eyes and looked over at the group of bodyguards.Each of them was strong and sturdy. It was clear that they were trained.She probably could not beat a single one of them.How was she supposed to get in?...Meanwhile, in a bedroom deep in the property.The door and windows were closed, the light was dim, and the air still smelled like the

    Sherry curved her eyes. "By the way, I know a few good doctors who specialize in andrology. Do you need a recommendation?"Bam!He instantly let go of her chin and threw her back on the bed.Sherry's body shook.John walked out.However, he soon came back with a few belts and ropes in his hands.She immediately shrank into the bed.John sneered and dragged her out by her ankles."Let me go! Don't touch me!" she screamed.He completely ignored her and tied up her hands and feet to the bed.She was completely bound and could not break free no matter how much she tried.She glared at him furiously. "You f*cking prick! When I get free, I'm going to cut off your—"Riiip!The tape was wrapped from her mouth to the back of her head.After wrapping it around a few times, John stopped.Then, he pinched her face with one hand and said with a smile, "You should stop dreaming about that. You'll never walk out of here for the rest of your life.""Mmph!"Her eyes almost popped out o

    Sylvia immediately said, "I can't go out yet. Sherry is in this courtyard. I have to go in and see her."Then, she thought of something and looked at them with bright eyes. "Can you help me?""Help you with what?" Zach asked.Jacob also looked at her in confusion.Sylvia pointed to the wall to the side and the tree that grew beside the wall inside. "Can you help me climb up? There's a tree inside, so I can use it to slide down."Zach's mouth twitched. "You want to climb the wall?"Jacob was not surprised by her behavior but asked uneasily, "Madam, this wall is a bit high. Won't you fall?""Don't worry, I definitely won't fall."Jacob did not say anything more and took a step forward to squat by the wall. It was clear he wanted Sylvia to step on his shoulder to climb up.Sylvia patted his shoulder, which was sturdy and strong. It should be able to support her.Immediately, she took off the high heels that were in the way and threw them to the side. She lifted her feet and said

    Sherry frowned and was silent for two seconds before saying, "It's just that thing between men and women, but I'm fine. Let's go quickly."After saying that, she dragged Sylvia outside.Sylvia could feel that Sherry was very weak. She sank back toward Sylvia in just a few steps and almost slumped to the ground.Sylvia hurriedly held her up. "Are you okay? Can you hold on?"Sherry took a deep breath and looked at her. "Syl, thank you for coming to me, but you should go first. Don't mind me."If there was nothing wrong with her, Sylvia would have left first and thought of another method afterward. However, Sherry looked like the living dead. How could Sylvia possibly leave her there?She pointed to the wall she came in from and the tree by the wall, saying, "My friends are outside the wall. I remember that you know how to climb trees. Climb up that tree and over the wall, and you'll be out."Sherry looked over.The tree was sturdy, and the wall was not too high. Sylvia had friend

    In the courtyard where Sherry was locked up, the alarm rang for a while before stopping, but the group of bodyguards surrounded them tightly with no intention to leave.Sherry glanced at them and whispered in Sylvia's ear, "Syl, I remember you learned self-defense. Can you beat them?"Sylvia froze. "When did I learn self-defense?"Sherry was also stunned. "Five to six years ago, after you first divorced Master Carter. You told me about it. Did you forget?"Sylvia bit her lip. "I forgot to tell you, I have amnesia.""Huh?" Sherry was shocked."I've forgotten everything that happened in the past nine years."Sherry was confused for a long time before snapping back to her senses. "I was wondering why you were dressed so childishly today."Sylvia was speechless.Sherry sighed and said to the group of bodyguards, "I don't know her. She got lost and wandered in here. I'll go back to my room now, so just let her go."The group of bodyguards stood expressionlessly in place, but a few

    Sylvia stood in place, unmoving.Odell walked up to her and looked down at her with his deep eyes.Her hair was disheveled, her feet were bare, and her dress was obviously not the one she had worn when she went out that afternoon.Then, he looked at her small face.Sylvia looked at him weakly. "W-why are you here?""John invited me to attend his mother's party." His voice was a little cold.Sylvia also recalled something. 'The man who just carried Sherry into the room seems to be Odell's partner that I met at the elevator of the hotel yesterday. I didn't expect that business partner to refer to John. If I had known, I wouldn't have asked Zach for help. I would've gone directly to Odell.'She lowered her head and said in a small voice, "I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just wanted to see Sherry."The air was silent for a few moments before he asked, "Where are your shoes?"Jacob immediately ran from the side and held out the pair of high heels in his hands to Sylvia.Odell

    The journey back was also quiet.The car was obviously spacious, but Sylvia felt so suffocated that she could not breathe. She wanted to explain but did not dare to say anything.Screech.The car stopped steadily in front of the hotel.The staff at the hotel entrance immediately came over and opened the door for them.Sylvia and Odell got out of the car at the same time. With his long legs and a cold face, he went inside without looking at anything else. Sylvia wrung her hands nervously and jogged behind him.Cliff and Jacob did not follow them.Soon, Sylvia followed him into the elevator.He stood straight in the middle of the elevator, and his expression was still cold. It was so cold that Sylvia shivered.Ding.Before long, the elevator stopped at the top floor.Sylvia did not dare to move and waited for him to go out before following him out. His strides were wide, and she followed closely behind him.Seeing his indifferent figure going back into the suite and how he wa

    Sylvia bit her lip. "I really didn't want to disturb your work.""Sylvia, who am I to you?"She hesitated. "Well, you are my husband."He lifted her face, his dark eyes staring into hers. "Instead of seeking help from your husband for such a big matter, you went to an unfamiliar man instead? Would you be happy if you were me?"Sylvia's chest tightened, and her throat choked up.After a while, she said softly, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I just...""Didn't want to disturb me, huh?" His lips curled up in a cold and self-deprecating smile.Sylvia pursed her lips. That was what she thought. She just did not know why he was this angry.The atmosphere was quiet for a long time, and his hand suddenly let go of her face.His dark eyes looked at her somewhat distantly. "Forget it, it's not your fault."After all, she had forgotten everything that happened in the past nine years. She had forgotten so many memories of being with him, so he could not blame her for being so distant from

    She was her usual self in every aspect. She put her heart into her job and never started trouble so long as nobody tried to start trouble with her. The crew cycled through their locations during their shoot. The constant travel made her skin break out slightly, but there were no other concerns otherwise. The shoot progressed very smoothly and within three months, they managed to wrap up everything at the mountainous region previously mentioned. It was nearly evening when they wrapped up the shoot. Holding a bouquet in hand, she took a group picture with the crew and celebrated with everyone. After that, she planned to hitch a ride with another crew member and leave for home. To their demise, some men in uniform who claimed to be the road maintenance technicians showed up to break the bad news to them. They mentioned that they had to repair some of the roads urgently and so the way home was temporarily obstructed. The director took his phone and called the city hotline fo

    He remembered his first meeting with Isabel. She was sitting all by herself on the floor, in the middle of nowhere. Her vulnerable expression only made her more endearing. So, he managed to get her to go to his place and installed her in his home. He fell for her and paid careful attention to all her needs. It did not take long before Isabel caught feelings for him as well. The two of them got together in no time. Their days were plain and ordinary, but also very fulfilling, that was until he met Clarice. With the help of his father, his power struggle with Roland had reached a tipping point. It was at that opportune moment when Clarice’s father saw something in Roland and planned to wed his daughter Clarice to him to join up their families, which was a cause for alarm for Decker. He stressed over it for an entire night before approaching Clarice himself the very next day. Clarice quickly caught feelings for him as well. Furthermore, Roland had been foolish enough to reject

    Decker was smiling quite earnestly at Isabel. Isabel threw a deeply suspicious look at him, then she glanced at the stack of documents laid out on top of the table in front of her. “Transferal of Shares.” She was dumbfounded. "I've gone through the contract, it’s safe to sign so go ahead.” Roland picked up a pen and handed it to her. "Roland, I..." "Sign it first, I’ll explain when we get home.” Isabel frowned and tried to protest. "I—" "Don't make me have to beg." Isabel did not know how to respond. Fine. She briefly scanned through the contract. The contract stated Decker’s agreement to transfer the remaining forty percent of his shares in Rockwell Corporation to her. Roland must have talked to the shareholders of Rockwell Corporation about this as well. They all regarded Isabel with polite smiles. Isabel had flipped through the final page of the document. She signed her name on one of the marked-out sections. She proceeded to sign all thr

    They ended the call shortly after that. Isabel glanced at Martha and was hesitating if she should break the news right away. Martha seemed to have sensed her staring and suddenly turned to her with a flash of concern. "Isabel, what's wrong?" Isabel took a deep breath and broke the news. "Auntie, Master Rockwell just passed away." Martha's eyes widened. After a lengthy silence that lasted more than ten seconds, she started to break out in tears. She covered her face with her hands and expressed amid bouts of tears mixed with laughter, “Wonderful! About time! I hope he enjoys life in the underworld. God knows that someone like him will never deserve a spot in heaven!” Isabel did not know whether she should celebrate with Martha or console her. Soon, Martha began to collect herself. She briefly wiped away her tears and joyfully took Isabel's hand. "Isabel, let’s go shopping! I’m in such a good mood today, I’m going to go on a shopping spree!” "Okay. But Roland w

    Isabel held onto Roland's hand firmly during the entire drive home after leaving the hospital. It was because Roland’s hands were cold and rigid. Isabel sat with him and tirelessly rubbed his hand to keep them warm. After one hand was warm, she would shift her attention to the other. By the time she managed to warm the other hand, the original hand would turn cold again. She decided it was easier to take both of his hands and caress them with the warmth of her palms. Roland looked at her with a gentle glow deep within his eyes. “Thank you, Isabel,” he said softly. Thank you for loving him, and for sticking by his side all this time despite circumstances. Isabel smiled. “I’m just warming your hands, it's no big deal. Still, you’re welcome." Roland smiled faintly and left it at that. Soon, his hands began to warm up off of the heat of Isabel’s palms. When Isabel felt that his hands were no longer freezing, she prepared to pull her hand away. That was when

    Decker looked nothing like his usual self. The pompous, arrogant man who held himself far above others and who expected everyone around him to kiss up to him because he was superior to them all. It was as if he had been plunged not only to Earth but a pile of swamp. He had completely lost his usual grace. Isabel said crossly, "Decker, have you gone mental? Is everything going on too much for you?” “Yeah, could you help me?” he said with a coy smile, “Just one hug should be enough to take care of it all.” Isabel rolled her eyes. Without warning, he suddenly braced himself and lunged right at Isabel, stepping past Brandon who was caught off guard by this sudden attack. Isabel barely had time to react. Just when it seemed like his hand was about to graze Isabel, a long pair of arms seized Isabel from behind and jerked her backward. It was swiftly followed by a long, muscular leg shooting outward right next to Isabel. Thump! Decker was kicked to the ground.

    "How did you and Roland meet?" Decker suddenly asked. Isabel turned away, fully intent on ignoring him. "Did you meet each other at Carter Corporation? Or did you meet him outside of work and gradually fell in love with him, then you decided to set him up with a position at Carter Corporation?” What did he mean by that? Was he insinuating that Roland was relying on her to snake his way into Carter Corporation? She threw a sideways, belittling look at him. "Do you think Roland is anything like you? He wouldn’t latch on another woman to further his goals.” Decker was not upset by this as he continued with a smug smile. "Oh? Then how did he get into Carter Corporation?" “He proved his worth.” Isabel realized that she had been roped in by Decker again. Nevertheless, she continued, “He passed the interviews himself. I was one of the interviewers and initially planned to dismiss him, but he managed to leave a very good impression on my father and the rest was history.” "

    "I never meant to kill him! Roland, you have to believe me. Why would I still try to deceive you when I’m in this state?” “In that case, you can go ahead and explain things to him in the afterlife.” Master Rockwell was taken aback by this, his demeanor tightened. "You...you..." Roland looked at him calmly. "Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you. It was Grandma and my parents who raised me. They instilled morals and virtue into me and made sure I’d grow into a decent man.” Master Rockwell was briefly relieved to hear this, but before he could rid himself of his trepidation, Roland continued in a dark voice, "But I won’t forget about you and Decker bribing all those media outlets to defame Isabel. I know you manipulated the stock prices to try to kick me out of the corporation. I’ll make sure to settle our score through the legal system.” If convicted guilty, they would have to rot in prison. “Roland… listen to me, Roland. Decker is your uncle. If you want revenge, you can come

    Master Rockwell must have heard their shifting movements and opened his eyes. When he recognized the faces of Roland and Isabel, there was a brief glow in his murky eyes. He motioned to the nurse to have her help him sit up from the bed. After he managed to position himself seated up against the head of the bed, he asked the nurse to leave. Then he cast a loving, tender smile on Roland and Isabel. “Roland, Isabel, please have a seat.” Roland said disinterestedly, "We have things to get to, just hurry up and tell us what you have to say." Isabel stayed silent. A look flashed in Master Rockwell's eyes. Then, he turned to Isabel and expressed regretfully, "Isabel, I’m a foolish old man, it was me who told Decker to leak pictures of you two. He had no choice because I forced him to do so. If you have to blame someone, blame me!” Isabel frowned. She was somewhat impressed by how smoothly the old man switched his mask from one to another. From a forlorn and sad state t
