She swore she would throw back that word in the face of those people one day.

Jean wiped her face, spun around, and left.

She did not dare to take the elevator. So she walked down thirteen floors to the parking lot on the minus second floor.

A black car quickly pulled up beside her.

“Get in.”

“Bobby? Why did you come in person? Aren’t you afraid of being implicated?” Jean asked.

He was wearing a mask and a hat, leaving his pair of warm eyes exposed. “I don’t believe that a little girl who would rather drink until she got gastrorrhagia and dare to assault the producer would sell her body for fame.”

“Thank you.” Jean suddenly had a lump in her throat.

“Don’t mention that.” Bobby looked at her with a pampering look in his eyes.

As the car drove out of the apartment and stopped at an empty roadside, the two got out of the car.

“Take the car. The gas tank is full.”

“Thank you.” She did not know what else to say.

Bobby was the only one who would trust and help her unconditionally.

He looked at her reddened eyes and gave her a hug. “If there is anything else I can help, just call me.”

Just then, he saw a car coming from not far away, and a guy was sticking halfway out of the window with a camera in his hands.

“Go now!” He hurried her.

“What about you?”

“I can take care of myself. Go now.”

Jean gritted his teeth and stepped on the accelerator. The car lunged forward.

Wallingden and Cornview were a four-hour drive apart. She drove as fast as she could and arrived at the hospital before dawn.

Her grandma had come out of the emergency room. The doctor told her that her grandma was out of danger.

Jean could not hold back her tears when she saw her gray-haired grandma lying on the hospital bed with tubes all over her body.

“I am sorry, Grandma. I am sorry. I want you to see me having a happy life and getting married. But I screwed everything up. I am sorry.”

Jean was crying like a baby, but her grandmother could not hug her in her arms like she did when she was small.

The next day, news of Jean and a man hugging in public at night went viral on the Internet.

Someone pointed out that the man looked suspiciously like Bobby Hudson, but his fans refused to admit it. They claimed Bobby was shooting out of town and warned Jean to stay away from him.

But it was during this time that Bobby suddenly tweeted, ‘The world will not be dark forever. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Hang on there.’

Many people said that he was refuting rumors for himself.

In Club Elegance, Jason kicked the table in frustration. “Damn it! Even the sky falling down could not stop her from hooking up with men. I wonder why she is so cheap? Can she not live without a man?”

“You haven’t given up, have you?” Someone mocked him.

Jason shot that man a glare, and no one else dared to utter a sound again.

Etan sorted his tie and then picked up a glass of wine. His expression looked so calm that no one could see the irritability inside him.

“It is almost one week,” Etan said.

Jason let out a confident smile. “Don’t worry. I still have time. Her contract is canceled, and creditors are after her. She will not survive for long.”

There was no emotion in Etan’s eyes as if he did not care about the bet he was having with Jason.

    A nurse suddenly ran over in a panic.“A swarm of paparazzi is blocking the entrance of the ward building. Patients and their family members could not get in or out. They are already protesting.”“What?” Jean was shocked.Paparazzi are vicious dogs; they will come swarming out of the lair at the smell of blood.They surrounded the hospital, and some even disguised themselves as patients, trying to sneak into the ward building.Jean gritted her teeth. Those people would not stop until they drove her to death.Since she knew this would be the case, she was not going to hide anymore.“Grandma, I will go out for a while. Don’t worry about me. I can handle it,” she said to her grandma....The paparazzi blocking the ward building entrance were barely stopped by the hospital security.The security was almost overwhelmed.“Look, Jean is coming out!” someone called out all of a sudden.

    Jean had been dressed conservatively whenever she attended events. It was the first time for her to dress so sexily in public.“I would not have to work my butt off for five years to get to stardom if I wanted to take the shortcut. I will find out who the person in the video is, and all those who slander me will have to apologize to me,” she snapped.“Working your butt off for five years? Bah! That sounds like some serious hard work, or was it? Who knows, maybe investors were shunning you all this while?”With an alluring smile, Jean suddenly reached to grab the shirt of the male reporter who spoke just now. “Are you sure about that?”The male reporter stared at her for two seconds and got a nosebleed.She then pushed him away with disgust. “There is no man I can’t get, as long as I want it. I wouldn’t have just achieved what I am today in show business had I taken the shortcut.”All the paparazzi were thinking in their mind, ‘What she says makes sense.’Jean then pointed her fi

    “Yeah, I am coming to beg you.

I will have someone pick her up. She is in Wallingden; driving will be too slow. I have got to arrange for a helicopter.”He was excited, like a child who could not wait to get his favorite toy.After Jason left, Etan continued his work as usual.But half an hour later, he could no longer read even a page of documents....Hanging up the phone, Jean had an icy look in her eyes.Alana stole her dad, and Anne stole her identity as the eldest daughter of the Mitchell family.Since they dared to do these, she would not play nice to them.She knew Anne must have used her relationship with Etan to get into the Mitchell family.Jean sneered.

    Jason jumped to his feet, wanting to pull Jean over. Just then, his phone rang. When he picked, his face changed. “My grandpa fainted. Bro, look after Jean for me until I am back.”Jason left. Now, only Jean and Etan were in the cubicle, just as Jean wanted it.She bit him so hard. It was not until she tasted blood in her mouth that she let off.The bite marks on his wrist were bleeding. But he did not seem to feel anything. “Please respect yourself, Miss Mitchell.”“Isn’t this what you all want? I was just fulfilling you guys’ desire. So stop pretending.” She looked at him with a stubborn look in her eyes. The bloodstain on her lips made her look wild and beautiful, just like a succubus.He narrowed his eyes, concealing the gloominess in his eyes and heart.“Not everyone is into you.”“You don’t want me? Then why don’t you let go of my hand?” she sneered.She pushed him. He fell on the settee, and she was on top of him.Before he knew it, she planted her lips on his. There wa

    He wrapped his hands around her wasp waist and said bluntly, “You had better not regret it.”Jean quietly sneered as she buried her face in his shoulder. She was not in the slightest drunk.She only regretted that she had not done this earlier.Seducing Etan was just the first step of her revenge plan.She knew very well that a man like Etan was cold-hearted and ruthless. If she wanted to win his heart, she must get ingenious.There was no time to lose. She could not afford to progress step by step with him.If she could not get his affection now, she at least wanted to get to his desire.So the two of them spent a night in the dim cubicle.At dawn, Etan carried Jean in his arm as he walked out of the nightclub. She was unconscious.He wrapped her in his jacket, so no one would see her face but just her long, black hair that dangled and fluttered in the wind.…As the sky turned bright, Jean woke up. She stared at the ceiling for a long while.The extreme discomfort on her

    When Jean arrived at her residence, no more paparazzi were waiting outside her house.But those spray red paint of insulting words remained on the door and wall outside.It looked bloody like a murder scene.Taking out her cell phone, she took photos of it.Her phone rang as soon as she stepped into the house. It was an unidentified caller.Since her phone number was private, few people knew about it.She hesitated if she should answer. At last, she did. “Hello?”“Miss Mitchell, I am the legal counsel of Galax Star Productions. Regarding your—”“Tell Willie I will pay double the money to him in a week. Ask him don’t harass me.”She had tons of debts to pay, and lawyer letters and indictments awaited her.But those were not important.Those debts were nothing once she returned to the Mitchell family.She was planning her next step, which was to return to the Mitchell family.Mitchell Corporation was founded by her dad and her mom.

    “That won’t be necessary.”But Anne kept talking to make herself feel less awkward. “I think the gauze is a little loose. I can re-bandage it for you. I used to act as a nurse after going to the hospital to study for two months.”While speaking, she reached over her hand. But Etan instinctively resented it.“That’s okay.”Etan’s grandma took that all in and glared at Etan. “Anne cares about you. Not everyone would do that. You should be grateful.”“I am sure a man like you has tons of girls surrounding you. I look too inadequate in comparison. If you meet a girl who matches you, do let me know. I will give my blessing to you two.” Anne just wanted to sound him out.“What are you talking about, Anne? I can assure you that Etan has no other woman. Don’t worry.” Etan’s grandma furrowed her brows.“Did you tell Anne that you have another woman, Etan?”Anne secretly clenched her hands.Etan thought of Jean. “No.”“See, he has only you.” His grandma guffawed.Anne bashed.

According to your previous income and your family situation, you can't afford to the house of Royal Penthouse."This information was provided by Ben. He and Jean both felt that this was a rare opportunity. They had to investigate the accounts as soon as possible.While Jean was speaking, she stared at Daniel. He was calm and just frowned. His expression did not change. It seemed that he was not guilty.But...Jean still found his flaw. His right hand was unconsciously clenching his pants, and he panicked. Daniel looked righteous and angrily rebuked, "This is all your arbitrary speculation. I don't need to report the situation of my family to anyone. If you really doubt me, just call the police. There is no need to be entangled with me."Jean nodded. "Yes, you're right. Since there's no need to

I'll go bring you breakfast." Ellen said while heading for the kitchen."No. I have something urgent today. I have to hurry to the office.""You should have breakfast. You're pregnant!"Jean stopped, and her gaze was gloomy.'Yes, I'm pregnant now. I should pay attention. Otherwise, I would easily be suspected.'Ellen brought up the breakfast. In less than ten minutes, she finished her breakfast.On the way to the Mitchell Corporation, Jean called Jenny."Jenny, I can't go to Dreamers Entertainment recently. Please keep an eye out for me.

    Chapter 393Jean was confused as she listened, "Who are you talking about? Who has his arm broken?""Oops, I am just too excited to make it clear. It's Brennna. I was told about this the moment I entered the company. He went whoring in a hotel. But that prostitute has a boyfriend who is a member of a gang. Brennna and that prostitute were caught sleeping on the bed. Her boyfriend broke Brennna’s arm and chopped off two of Brennna’s fingers on the spot. Now Brennna is in the hospital with police there." Summer gave a quite vivid description of the matter with happiness written all over her face.Rubbing her forehead, Jean thought it was indeed something unexpected."Do you think this is good news?"  Jean nodded, smiling, "Yes, it's good news. I didn't expect that he did this."Summer looked very delighted, "He did it. Now, this matter has been spread through the whole company? Brennna, a widely recognized good man, turns out to be a jerk. It is too bad that I used to think he i

    Chapter 392The day he disappeared a week ago, Jean had just ruined Anne's engagement.Etan frowned and his cold face made Elliot a little scared."Keep investigating! Robert must be found! I want to know if he is dead or alive."He not only wanted to find Robert but also wanted to find Robert before Morgan did.If he let Morgan find Robert first, maybe Jean would worship him in her heart. She might even think that Morgan was a good man!Etan would never give Morgan this chance.What's more, he would not give Jean any chance to be with another man.Elliot said cautiously, "Besides, there is one thing I don't know whether I should say."Etan glanced at him and said, "Go ahead. Don't dilly-dally."Elliot immediately said, "I also found out that Mr. Mitchell handed over the company to his long-time friend to manage it for him a month ago. However, that person held a shareholders' meeting today and almost kicked Mrs. Mann out of the company."Etan's eyebrows tightened. "What?"

    Chapter 391"Jean, I still hold the view that you and Etan are husband and wife. After all, you've married Mr.Mann. There is nothing that cannot be solved between husband and wife. Don't be like enemies."Jean smiled...There were some things that couldn't be resolved between husband and wife, just like her and Etan. In the end...even if they were not enemies, they couldn't have a happy ending.Ellen tried to persuade her, "You should at least think about the child in your womb!"Jean lowered her head and looked at her belly. She pursed her lips and did not say anything. ..."Make an investigate about how many times Jean had met Morgan recently. Where and how long did they meet each other? And when did she call the police?" That was the first order Etan made when he arrived at the company.Elliot immediately replied, "Yes, Sir." He didn't even dare to ask anything.Just as he was about to leave, Etan suddenly called out to him, "Wait..."Elliot stopped immediately, "Sir,

    Chapter 390Etan straightened up his clothes unhurriedly and said coldly, "The man you pick this time is actually good. Morgan is indeed worth trusting. Unfortunately he meet you."Jean became alert when she heard his words.She sat up with her arms on the bed and said, "I'll say it again. There's nothing going on between Morgan and me. Even if I want to be with a man, I won't be with anyone from the Moss family. I went to him just to ask about my father's case."Etan immediately got to the point, "You called the police?""Or what?""You don't believe me, and then why do you come to me?" Etan's face, which had easily eased a little, darkened again.In Cornview, the Mann family was definitely the most powerful.Jean knew this, but she called the police anyway.What did it mean? It meant she didn't trust him."It's one thing for me to believe you, and it's another for me to come to you or not. You're my father's son-in-law. Your father-in-law's missing. Shouldn't you deal with

    Chapter 389Etan's face suddenly changed color. But before he could utter sarcasm, Jean said, "I know you despised what I said. You think I'm humiliating you. You would say I'm not worthy of your caring! I don’t deserve you treating me as an equal! A glance at me would be a stain in your eyes. You would never love me!" Etan's grip on Jean's shoulders grew more fierce.Jean's face went pale with the pain then. She took a breath and scoffed, "But, don't you think you're acting so weird today? I just had a meal with Morgan, and you got so annoyed. Don't you think you're overreacting?""Not to mention that Morgan and I have nothing between us, even if we did, do you need to be mad like this?"Etan felt like his chest was filled with explosives, and each word Jean said was igniting him.Damn woman! How the hell did she want to be screwed? Jean snorted, "Sooner or later, we'll get a divorce. I know you won't let me be your wife forever. I'm well aware of my position!""So… it's onl

    Chapter 388Jean was trembling with pain. Etan and Jean glared at each other and their eyes seemed fighting. One was unconvinced, the other was very mad.Seeing Jean's painful look, Morgan immediately said, "Etan, you almost break her wrist."These words, however, instantly ignited Etan’s fury."Morgan, she is my wife. This is none of your business. Get the hell out of here. Don't think I dare not to mess with you."  Jean roared, "Enough. Could you stop doing that? Just come at me. Don't take out your anger on unrelated person."Etan laughed.‘She simply is defending him like this and telling me to come at her?’Etan only felt that his heart was set on fire, and he nodded, "Well, come at you."     Morgan said, "Etan, you need to calm down!"      "This is between me and my wife and has nothing to do with you."Etan dragged Jean away in strides.Morgan worried that Etan would hurt Jean, but the two were indeed a couple, so their affairs were out of his hands.‘But, what i

    Chapter 387Jean didn't think that Etan flew into a rage because of jealousy.He just felt that as his wife, she secretly ate with another man without his knowledge. He felt that his authority had been challenged and that he was cuckolded.After all, Etan didn’t believe her at all. He doubted her...Morgan didn't expect Jean to defend him right away and she even didn't defend herself.He was a policeman and he had always stood up to protect others. But it was the first time that someone had stood in front of him to protect him.Morgan's original impression of Jean was very complicated. He felt that this woman was scheming, cunning, but somewhat pitiful. But at this time, he felt that perhaps he had had a bias against Jean before.He had no habit of being protected, especially being protected by a woman.Morgan stood forward. "Etan, Ms. Mitchell and I have serious things to talk about today. You think too much."Etan sneered. "Serious things? Morgan, I know you very well. When
