Ezekiel didn't participate in the festivities, unlike the other wealthy heirs who were enjoying themselves. He remained calm throughout everything that had been happening.

When he saw Sophia attempting to make her way to the shore, he quickly spoke up, his voice dripping with menace. "Don't let them get to shore. If I see any of you helping them out, I'll make sure you all end up in the water and join my little fish game!"

As he uttered these words, his expression darkened. There was no way he would let Sophia rescue that woman so easily. He wanted to see Sophia wear the mermaid costume and become his fish.

After all, she had voluntarily chosen to be a fish in their little game. He had not forced her to do anything, so no one could blame him for that.

But in just a matter of minutes, that woman had almost slipped through their fingers.

The men and women on the shore stopped laughing as they realized that Ezekiel was really angry. Each of them watched Sophia in the water like hawk

    Ezekiel was suddenly consumed with anger and reached for Sophia's neck again.She was not going to let him catch her a second time.She had let him do it before because he had Isabel and she wanted to avoid more trouble. Now, she just wanted to rid herself of this repulsive man, who she hated a hundred times more than Elliot.The two of them exchanged blows by the poolside while bodyguards quickly closed in.Sophia faked a punch, using the opportunity to pull Isabel back. She was afraid Isabel would be caught by the bodyguards, so she brandished the bottle of itching powder at the bodyguards and warned, "Hold still! If you don't want to end up like them, step aside!"Ezekiel was beside himself with rage, and barked orders at the bodyguards. "Don't listen to her nonsense. Seize them!"Sophia narrowed her eyes. "Ezekiel! I am your grandfather's attending physician."Ezekiel's face darkened. "Even an attending physician can’t stop any accidents. If you died in a car accident, who w

    Ethan hurriedly said, “Calm down, Elliot. It’s all a misunderstanding. Ezekiel didn’t know Dr. Sophia was your wife. He wouldn’t have done it if he had known.”Elliot said, “He picked on my wife last time. I didn’t hold him responsible then because he’s my brother. Now, he’s done it again. If we hadn’t gotten here in time, he could’ve done something to her. You heard him.“He said he won’t let them live! Does he respect me at all? He didn’t even respect Grandpa, for Heaven’s sake. You’re the leader of the family, Ethan. Are you going to take that scum’s side?”Ethan said, “I know that, but I’m not taking his side. What I meant was that his punishment doesn’t fit the crime. Don’t worry. I’ll devise a solution, and you’ll be pleased with it, okay?”Ethan saw Elliot was still holding the gun. He pressed it down, “Keep the gun away. What will the onlookers think about you pointing a gun at Ezekiel?”Elliot was unmoved, pointing the gun at Ezekiel once more. Ethan looked to Sophia fo

    Ethan tried to comfort Elliot, “I know you and Sophia were mistreated in this incident. I’ll make sure he apologizes to both of you.”Ethan yelled at Ezekiel, “You can apologize, or you’ll be grounded for a month, Ezekiel. You won’t be allowed to go anywhere.”“Ground me for a month and see if I care! I won’t have to go to work, then!” Ezekiel left immediately after saying his piece.Ethan yelled at him again, “Ezekiel!”He realized Ezekiel would not turn back. So, he turned to Elliot and said, “He’s really getting on my nerves.” Elliot was calm, “I hope you’ll keep your word and ground him for a month, Ethan. If he gets out before the time is up, I’ll have to take matters into my own hands.”Ethan said, “If he does get out, he’s beyond my control. You can do as you see fit.”Ethan turned to look at the rich men, who the bodyguards had thrown into the pool. The wealthy men wore mermaid costumes while the bodyguards hit them with fishing rods instead of fishing for the men. The

    Elliot was furious. He paused a bit before saying, “Look who’s talking!”Sophia responded, “Fine. It’s better if we look after ourselves from now on. It doesn't matter if you saved me because you wanted to take revenge on Ezekiel or if it’s the other way around. I appreciate you coming. That ought to make you happy!”Samuel could not help but glance at Sophia.‘What’s she talking about? I can’t believe she squanders Elliot’s efforts like that.’Elliot was exasperated. “Are you trying to say I poked my nose into your business?”Sophia said, “I thanked you, didn’t I?”Elliot said, “Is that how you thank people?”Sophia frowned. “What else do you want from me? How about I kneel before you?”Elliot stared at her for a good while and said nothing. He was so mad he turned away and ignored her. ‘She’s just impossible to deal with!’Sophia did the same, not caring that he ignored her.Samuel looked at the two and felt mentally exhausted, thinking it would take some time before Elli

    Ruth was a little worried when she saw Sophia’s blank expression. The former asked, “Do you need some help, Ms. Sophia?”“That won’t be necessary,” Sophia replied almost impulsively, “You should get on with your work. I’ll handle this.”Ruth looked at Sophia, not entirely confident. “Okay. Call me anytime if you need help, Ms. Sophia.”Sophia nodded, “Sure. Go on out now.”Sophia closed the kitchen door swiftly. She was glad that Elliot’s kitchen was not an open one. Otherwise, the others would have realized she was cooking while watching tutorial videos. Sophia would feel so ashamed if they caught her doing that. She peered at the fish in the sink and took a deep breath, thinking she probably had to cook it first. Otherwise, she could not wash the vegetables. She turned on the tap, wanting to clean the fish first.However, she did not expect the fish to slip away as soon as she touched it. Sophia paused before saying, “Hey! Aren’t you a lively one?”She dashed at it and clutch

    Elliot could not stop laughing. He grabbed her hands and washed them. “You shouldn’t step foot into the kitchen next time. You’re not meant to be here.”Sophia stared at him. “Why do you look down on me like that?”Elliot turned and looked at her thoughtfully. “That’s not the case here. What I’m saying is everyone’s good at different things. There’s no need to push ourselves. You’re an excellent doctor and fantastic at administering acupuncture.“All that matters is that you excel in your expertise. Nobody said a doctor who saves lives has to do house chores.”‘Woah! When did Elliot learn to speak like this?’Sophia looked at him, astonished. She felt ashamed a little and proceeded to explain, “I know how to make spaghetti, but I haven’t the foggiest about seafood.”Elliot grinned. “That’s okay. I do!”Sophia was even more surprised now. “Huh? Do you know how to cook?”Elliot glanced at her and mimicked her, “Why do you look down on me like that?”He turned off the stove and t

    Chase spoke frantically. “Gee, is this how you repay your debt? I told Elliot to deal with the online post that criticized you. Don’t you think you owe me some thanks for that?”Sophia was caught unawares. “What online post?”Chase grabbed his chance and said, “I’m talking about the video where you roasted those people in the hospital. You have no idea how many people criticized you online.”Sophia caught on instantly. This must be Sharon’s doing. She looked at Chase and smiled. “I have Elliot to thank for that, then. What do you have to do with it?”Chase was frustrated. “I told him to do it. Do you think he would’ve known how to be so thoughtful?”Sophia rested her chin on her hands and said, “You helped Elliot, not me. What makes you think I should beg you for anyting?”Chase was speechless. After a while, he said, “Y-You guys are just made for each other.” Sophia grinned and waved at him. “Goodbye!” Samuel seized Chase and took him away.Now that it was quiet in the dining

    Sophia did not say anything. She took out the needles when the temperature was just right and started treating Jeffrey.Ethan was gobsmacked. He had not counted on her actually knowing acupuncture. She did it with such skill that she had to have practiced it countless times to attain such proficiency.He thought that Elliot must have brought in someone else to maintain the hoax.The acupuncture concluded an hour later. Sophia tucked away the needles and checked Jeffrey’s pulse. She smiled and comforted him, saying, “You’re making good progress, Grandpa. I’ll prescribe some medication for you. It’ll give you an energy boost and reinvigorate you.”Jeffrey nodded. “Alright. Do whatever you think is necessary.” Sophia wrote down the prescription on a piece of paper.When Sophia was done, Ethan smiled and said, “You’re very good at this, Dr. Sophia. Was this skill passed down in your family?”Sophia mumbled, “I learned it in secret somewhere.” Ethan was shocked. “You learned it in

    “Ah, no!” Sophia instinctively reached out to catch it, but the phone narrowly missed her fingers. So, she just watched as he tossed the telephone into the bushes.Sophia was infuriated. "Brother, you haven't sung for me yet?"Kyle looked at her. "Time's up.""Time's up for what? You big liar."As she spoke, she balled her fists and attacked him.Although she was no match for Kyle in martial arts, he couldn't fight her in such a confined space. So, Kyle found himself somewhat helpless in this narrow space.He grabbed both her hands with his big hands and pinned her legs with his, leaving Sophia unable to move her limbs.Frustrated, she aimed her head at Kyle and lunged forward. Kyle instinctively dodged. Sophia's little head directly hit his chest.Thud.It felt like a forty-pound hammer hitting his chest, causing Kyle to start coughing on the spot. He was truly at a loss. She was too much to handle, using every trick in the book.With one hand rubbing his sore chest and the

    At that moment, it seemed like the world came to a standstill. The man and the woman at the door were so scared they hardly dared to breathe. How dare this woman. How could she slap Kyle?They sneakily glanced at Kyle's reddened face, wishing they could disappear. They were afraid they'd face his wrath, too.Kyle also couldn't believe what he was seeing. This little drunkard in front of him wasn't speaking gently or acting cute, and instead of calling him brother, she slapped him. He was furious. At that moment, he had already thought of where to bury this woman.However, Sophia didn't seem to realize the seriousness of hitting someone. She suddenly jerked her wrist and broke free from the man's grasp. Whether it was because she used too much force or because she was drunk and couldn't control her strength, she stumbled and fell on her rear.This fall was solid, and she couldn't help but cry in pain, "Ow!"Tears streamed down her face.Kyle was bewildered for a moment. The anger

    Sophia felt helpless. This man's schemes ran too deep. He didn't reveal anything useful. The two drank one glass after another from seven in the evening until ten at night. Sophia's head was spinning.She had been trying to limit herself, taking small sips each time. Unfortunately, her tolerance for alcohol was quite poor. Her gaze was unfocused, and the man opposite her seemed to blur into duplicates. She knew deep down that she was drunk. It was frustrating. When would her tolerance improve?"Are you deliberately trying to get me drunk to see me embarrass myself?" Kyle lounged carelessly. "I didn't know your alcohol tolerance was so poor."Sophia snorted softly in her heart. Ignorance was truly unbelievable. She even suspected that this man had seen her drunk before. Otherwise, why insist on drinking with her? She needed to control herself now; otherwise, her stingy husband at home would be infuriated.So she just slumped onto the table, motionless.Kyle chuckled. "Are you dru

    Kyle compromised, "Alright, I won't touch you."Sophia sternly commanded, "Get off."Kyle slowly got up from her.Sophia's piece of porcelain against his neck remained unmoved, her little face tense.Kyle sat up and waved to remove the hand threatening his neck, "Alright, if I bleed, you lose your life. Do you think I'm afraid of such a broken thing like you?"He knocked away the piece of porcelain in Sophia's hand, but she didn't pick it up. Instead, she said softly, "I know you're not afraid. As the top boss of the Netherworld Palace, what kind of woman can't you have? But it's not worth it to ruin the mood just to sleep with a woman, don't you think?"Kyle looked at her and smiled. Far from diminishing with Sophia's various rudeness, the interest in his eyes only intensified.He stretched out his long arm and grabbed Sophia's nape, pulling her closer. The two were close enough to hear each other breathe.There was a determined smile in his eyes. "I like smart girls."Sophia

    Kylie smirked. "So, how else do you want me to repay you?"But Sophia couldn't shake the feeling that his smile seemed somewhat sinister.Kyle wasn't the kind of person to easily agree. Could it be true that she had saved him?After contemplating, she said, "For example, a substantial monetary reward, a direct increase in shares and equity, or at the very least, treating me to a meal would suffice.“But instead, you kidnapped me, restricted my movements, and now you're telling me it's repayment? Did I perhaps drown your son in a well in a past life, prompting you to repay me in such a unique way?"He was left bewildered by Sophia's rapid-fire words. What was this woman talking about?After a good while, he finally grasped the gist of her words. "Alright, let's go. I'll treat you to a meal."Sophia looked at him, surprised that he was so easy to persuade. She took advantage of the situation and added, "Then first, give back the phone to your lifesaving benefactor."Kyle replied,

    Elliot searched the inside and out of the car. He indeed found a box of acupuncture needles tucked away in a corner. His wife always had a habit of carrying a box of acupuncture needles with her, not for self-defense, but for saving others.However, this box had yet to be opened, proving that the skills of the person they were dealing with surpassed hers. Otherwise, she wouldn't have missed the chance to use the needles.It seemed that this car was indeed the right one.He looked at the dirt road ahead, with tracks from two vehicles. One was a regular sedan, and the other looked like an off-road vehicle.But no more surveillance cameras were ahead, so they wondered if the cars had turned back or continued forward.He relayed the situation to Avery once again. Avery began to investigate, checking every detail of the vehicle information provided by Elliot. At this point, the police, Samuel, and his team arrived one after the other.Since there were no surveillance cameras in this a

    "Mary," Paisley called out each word, but then her throat seemed to constrict, and she couldn't say anything more. Tears welled up in her eyes.Lucas also felt anguished. "We're sorry, Mary, but we haven't wronged you."Mary sneered, "If you haven't, how did I end up in this situation today? You both are incompetent parents. What's the point of arguing? You only have two daughters. Can't you treat us equally?"Paisley was truly enraged by her words. "How have I not treated you equally? Mary was just being clever. Perhaps I inadvertently praised her, but I never said you were bad, did I? Just because of this, you want to abandon Mary?“Are you even human? After you went missing, I couldn't eat or sleep peacefully. Every night was spent in tears. I knew you suffered a lot, and surviving wasn't easy, so when I found out it was Mary who made you disappear, I resented her deeply.“I did everything to make it up to you, even at the cost of hurting Mary.

    Xena viciously grabbed her by the collar, preparing to take her back for further interrogation. However, many policemen suddenly burst in through the door.The secretary followed closely behind, explaining, "Officers, hurry and arrest Xena. She forced her way in."Xena frowned. Assessing her situation, she forced Mary to sit in the boss's chair, a dagger held against her sister's neck. The room was marked with signs of struggle, with blood spattered across the floor.In this situation, she could hardly argue her innocence. But she instinctively explained, "She locked up my parents and wouldn't tell me where they were. I just wanted to question her."The police officers' expressions hardened, their tone brooking no refusal. "Take her away!"Two officers stepped forward and seized her. Xena complied, offering no resistance or excuses, obediently following the police.Another officer glanced at Mary. "Are you alright?"Mary seemed shaken, clutching her neck. After calming herself,
