Retribution in Bloom Chapter 20 He Has Someone Else in His Heart
Terry was caught off guard, and his breath became uneven.Feeling his hard-on, I giggled.Veins bulged on Terry's forehead as he suppressed his emotions. He was clearly infuriated, but his expression turned odd as his anger was mixed with lust.With a forceful shove, Terry pushed me away, his eyes darkening with provoked anger.Meanwhile, the men in suits were completely taken aback.Everyone knew Terry's temperament. Any woman who had ever tried to approach him hadn't even managed to touch a single hair on his body before meeting a miserable end. Yet, here I was, having not only sat on his lap but also openly flirted with him in full view of his associates.They were all stunned, wondering if this was the real Terry they were seeing. At that moment, they didn't know what to say. It wasn't until Terry shoved me off him that they finally breathed a sigh of relief.Regaining their composure, one of the men sneered, "Stop wasting your energy, girl. Mr. Finnen won't have any fee

He found it strange when I gave him a look of subtle mockery after he mentioned that Michele would never be able to be a mother again. It didn't seem like I was merely trying to climb the social ladder by seducing someone as powerful as Scott. Perhaps I had other motives.His men moved swiftly, and twenty minutes later, the results of the investigation were laid out before Terry. "Just as I thought," he muttered, frowning at the information in front of him.Without delay, he picked up the phone and called Michele. "Michele, I've found out something about Adrianna. I'll send it to you."…After leaving the club, I called Scott. I told him I wasn't feeling well and wanted to take the rest of the day off. The deal hadn't been finalized, so I suggested he send someone else to handle it.There was a pause on the other end of the line before his voice softened, filled with concern. He asked about my health, told me to rest, and not to worry about the contract. When the call ended, I

Our eyes met, and for a moment, my heart clenched tight.I always knew this day would come, but I never imagined it would arrive so soon.Biting my lip, I instinctively averted my gaze. I pretended to be ignorant of his presence out of guilt. However, Scott wasn't about to give me that chance. He stormed forward and kicked away the maids who had been holding me down. Grabbing my wrist, he wanted to take me away with him."I'm not leaving, Scott! Let me go! I need my son's ashes!" I kept struggling, trying to free myself from his grip. Despite my struggles, he forced me into the car and took me back to the villa....My mind was consumed with thoughts of my son's ashes, and I was restless.It wasn't until Scott shoved me hard and my back slammed into the cold wall that the pain snapped me out of my thoughts. Instinctively, I looked up and found myself staring into his eyes, which were filled with menace. The way he stared at me was as if he wanted to devour me right on the s

Tears welled up in the corners of my eyes, but I didn't fight back anymore. If this was what it took to quell his rage, then so be it!Scott gripped my waist harshly as if he had gone mad, and we became entangled in a chaotic and intense struggle, rising and falling in a relentless rhythm.I felt like a tiny boat adrift on a vast ocean. I was tossed by waves of pain and pleasure, and my vision blurred.Finally, it was over. He lay weakly on top of me.Suddenly, he spoke in a hoarse and raw voice. "Adrianna, from the beginning to the end, did you ever love me? Even just a little?"My eyes brimmed with tears. I bit down on my lip, unable to bring myself to respond. Scott took his leave. I curled up, hugging my shoulders weakly as I sat alone in the darkness. I knew our relationship was over....The next day, I moved out of the villa and found a random apartment to rent. Once I had settled in, I carefully concealed a fruit knife beneath my clothes and slipped into the Finnen R

Michele screamed uncontrollably. Her face contorted in pain, and her teeth bared in a grimace as she frantically reached up to touch the wound. Her hand was stained with blood. It was bright red against her pale skin."You… you…" Her wide eyes were filled with disbelief as her voice shook with rage. "Adrianna, you filthy bitch! How dare you ruin my face?"This time, it was my turn to sneer coldly. Without a word, I slashed the blade across her cheek again, the second cut crossing the first, forming a perfect little "X." My smirk deepened. It suited her, this wretched woman.Michele was frozen in shock. When she finally regained her senses, she was absolutely enraged. She gritted her teeth, eyes wide with anger as she charged toward me. "Adrianna, you bitch! I'm going to kill you!"I took a step back.The wound on her stomach still hadn't healed, so she couldn't stand. Hence, she crashed hard onto the ground. I took a step forward and crouched down beside her. Grabbing her co

Terry stopped Michele in time.After scanning me up and down with deep eyes, he gestured to his men. "Take her to the police station.""Yes, sir!" The men in black marched me out of the house....At the entrance of Finnen Residence, we happened to bump into Scott.He was stepping out of his car with gifts in his hand. He was here to visit Michele.Dressed in a suit and a pair of leather shoes, he came to a stop a short distance away from me and stared back at me.Under the bright sunlight, Scott looked as handsome and noble as ever. However, there was a cold and aloof look on his face that I never saw before.He glanced at me once before brushing past me like he didn't know me.My heart twisted in pain as my breathing came out in heavy pants.Ha! We were probably strangers now. That was good.I had been the one to use him. We got what we wanted, so why bother lingering any longer? So be it."Hurry up!" The men in black suddenly shoved me from behind.I stumbled.Then, th

I ignored the pain in my body as my heart sank.What did she just say? Discipline? No wonder she instantly started giving me trouble. Someone had ordered her to do it.I gritted my teeth and slowly got to my feet. "Who is it?""Who cares if you know? Well, it's Madam Liliwoods."Perhaps the chubby woman thought being connected to the rich and famous was worthy of being proud of. That was why there was a smug look on her face.She didn't keep it a secret either."Madam Liliwoods?" I frowned as I mumbled the name.Soon, realization struck me. It was Zeana, Scott's mother!"Ha!" I couldn't stop the mocking and bitter smile spreading across my lips.I couldn't even do anything against anyone in the Finnen Family, and now I had to deal with Zeana.How very "important" I was. All of them wanted me dead. Was I now doomed?"Everyone, get her! Kill her!"At the chubby woman's order, the other women charged at me.I was thrown to the ground once more. Then, punches began to rain dow
Last Updated : 2024-10-03Retribution in Bloom Chapter 27 He Cooked for Me
While I was stunned, Terry had forced his way into my home."What are you doing?" I coldly shot him a look.He ignored my nasty attitude and sat down on the couch. "I'm visiting you."I scoffed disdainfully.A guest? At most, Terry was an unwelcome guest.However, my entire body was radiating with pain, so I couldn't be bothered with him. I went into my small bedroom.I grabbed some medicinal cream and rubbed it on my bruises before laying down on the bed and covering myself with the blanket.I felt so woozy that I immediately fell asleep.After all, if Terry really wanted to avenge Michele, I could never avoid it. If he did not want that, then he would be gone after a while.I slept soundly.When I opened my eyes again, it was already dark outside.My stomach was loudly growling. I had awoken from hunger.I bitterly smirked. After my son died, I was all alone. I did not care about my health.If I could avoid eating, I would not eat. If I became too starved to continue on,

Retribution in Bloom Chapter 39 Revenge Against Scott
Just before I slipped into unconsciousness, I thought I saw Scott rushing towards me, his arms enveloping me in a frantic embrace. He called my name over and over, his voice filled with fear.It was almost comical—a man as ruthless and cold as Scott, driven by fear.…I fell sick. The world passed me by in a hazy blur. Despite my condition, Scott kept me confined, fearful I might try to escape.One morning three days later, I was half-asleep when someone harshly pulled me out of my daze.It was Zeana. "You witch! Do you think you deserve my son?" she hissed, glaring at me with venom before looking me over with disdain. "I've already eliminated his real love, so you're just a stand-in. Know your place."'The real love? Is she referring to Scott's first love?' I wondered."You caused that woman's car accident?" I gasped in realization."That's right!"Due to her lack of regard for me, Zeana did not bother to hide anything and just smirked. "Scared now? Adrianna, if you value
Retribution in Bloom Chapter 38 For the Second Time
I did not have many belongings. After briefly packing everything away, I ended up with one luggage bag. Terry held my hand with his free one as we walked side by side, each pulling a bag. We exchanged smiles, filled with the excitement of crossing the great ocean to start anew.How thrilling it was!At that thought, my smile deepened. However, before my smile could truly blossom, our happy moment was abruptly interrupted by a shocking explosion. I flinched, terror seizing me.Terry's face was dark as he hurriedly pulled me into his arms to keep me safe in his protective embrace. The mansion's doors had been blasted open. Through the settling dust and smoke, Scott—dressed in his finely tailored suit—and a group of mercenaries strode in.His eyes fixed on our intertwined hands, narrowing with a dangerous intensity as a lethal intent emanated from him."Adrianna, come here!" he barked out through gritted teeth. "No way!" I shot back immediately. "Scott, I have nothing to
Retribution in Bloom Chapter 37 Happy Ending
"Mr. Finnen, please spare me!" the bald man pleaded. With a cold look on his face, Terry stood up and looked at the other man like he was already dead. "You deserve death for hurting her."Then, he said to his subordinate, "I don't want to see him again.""Yes, Mr. Finnen! Scott has gone too far. Should we inform Ms. Nanami?"Terry faltered for a moment before shaking his head. "No, there's no need. Such filth is not fit to be heard by her. She will have me for the rest of her life. I will protect her, never letting her come to harm ever again."I stumbled as I ran out. Still, I could not hold back the pain. With my arms around myself, I sank to my knees and howled with sorrow. Scott, the man who kept going on and on about how he would marry me. I really was blind. I could not even differentiate a man from a monster.As for Terry…"Fool! You're an absolute idiot…" I murmured through my tears. But then, slowly, a smile broke through my sorrow as warmth filled my heart. S
Retribution in Bloom Chapter 36 Revenge and The Truth
Caught off guard, I ended up with Michele's hands wrapped around my neck as she squeezed hard. "L-Let go."Michele's strength was overwhelming. I tried to pry her hands away, scraping and scratching until blood welled up on her skin, but I could not get her off me. Breathing became a struggle, my face turning an ashen white. Dizziness washed over me in intense waves, a loud roar filling my head. I pushed past the agonizing pain and desperately called for help. "H-Help! S-Save me!"But Michele was unfazed, her voice hysterical as she screeched, "Scream all you want, Adrianna! No one will come to your aid. "I've sent all the servants away, so stop wasting your energy. Just accept your fate and die!"Despair seized me as I realized Michele spoke the truth.Yet, I couldn't resign myself to this fate. I couldn't die just like this. With a clenched jaw, I gathered all my strength and stomped hard on the back of Michele's knees. "Argh!"Her grip slackened in pain. Seizing
Retribution in Bloom Chapter 35 It Was All a Ruse
I bit my lips hard. I was using the pain to numb the pain in my heart. Indeed, what a joke. I shut my eyes. When I next opened them, they were covered in ice. "Scott, I agree to do what you suggested," I calmly stated....I called Terry, telling him I had escaped. When he heard I wanted to stay by his side due to how scared I was, he immediately sent a car for me. I was brought back to the Finnen Residence. Melissa had gone on a vacation abroad. The only other person at home was Michele. However, she was resting in her room due to the shock and trauma she suffered. I did not see her at all. "Adrianna! I was just about to send someone to rescue you. Thank goodness you're alright!" Terry embraced me. This tall man was actually looking at me with red eyes. I went stiff. With a frown, I resisted the urge to push Terry away. On the inside, I was laughing. What a great actor Terry was. Not even in his dreams could he have imagined that the bald man had put the call
Retribution in Bloom Chapter 34 Choose One
Michele stopped talking. Her face was swollen, as blood began to drip from the corner of her mouth. She was utterly stunned. At the same time, she backed down and became more subdued. My reaction was the opposite of hers. I was unusually silent and seemingly calm. The bald man could not resist glancing at me. Then, he pulled out his phone and put it on speaker as he called Terry. "Terry, I have Adrianna and Michele.""Let them go! How much do you want? I'll pay." Terry's voice rang over the phone. "Do you think I need money?" The bald man scoffed. Moments later, he spat out through gritted teeth, "You killed my family, so I'll give you a taste of the same agony."Let's play a game. You can only choose one woman out of these two. The one you choose will be released while the abandoned one..." The bald man excitedly glanced at the metal cage. "She'll be fed to the dogs!""Terry! Terry, pick me! Pick me! I'm your sister!" Michele immediately started shouting in panic. Ter
Retribution in Bloom Chapter 33 Disappointed and Kidnapped
Silence fell. It was a very long silence. I could faintly hear heavy breathing coming from outside through the crack of my door. While I could not see Terry's face, I could sense the pain and conflicted emotions he was being barraged by. Michele was his sister! How could he go after her? "I'm sorry, Adrianna. I... I can't do that." Terry's voice was hoarse and dripping with agony. "Still, I won't give up on you."In the end, it's my family who wronged you. I'll use my whole life to make it up to you, to give you a good life."As he did not want to push me too far, he left for now. I felt a heavy burden on my shoulders. At the same time, I came to a decision. I pulled out my phone and called Scott. "Hey, babe, have you thought it over?""Yes." I nodded. "I've made up my mind.""Really? Babe, once this is over, I'll marry you..."I instantly interrupted his happy rambling and emphasized, "I won't do it. I won't get together with Terry."Silence fell on the other e
Retribution in Bloom Chapter 32 Terrifying Devotion
The man who pinned me down six years ago was Terry.My son was his.Michele was also his sister.Michele caused my son's death and even stole his heart.Goodness! I was going to explode.Not even the most melodramatic romance novels would dare to come up with a plot like that.I could not accept it. It really was too much for me.However, something felt strange about the entire affair. There was an eerie and unsettling quality that I could not pinpoint.With fists clenched tight, I forced myself to calm down. "How did you know that I was the one?""The manager of Club Kyo told me. He has a photo of you walking out of my room."A photo of when I left?Something clicked in my mind. I hurriedly asked, "Which room were you in back then?"301."301?"Oh." I heaved a sigh of relief when I heard he had been in room 301.Back when I was working part-time at Club Kyo, I was instructed to deliver something to room 301 by my manager. Something had happened inside, as it was extreme
Retribution in Bloom Chapter 31 Topple the Finnen Family Together
Scott stared deep into my eyes. "I'll divorce Michele. Adrianna, marry me. Be my wife."I felt an urge to cry, and my eyes turned red.Strictly speaking, Scott was my first man. When I used him, he gave me warmth and someone to rely on.My heart was not made of stone. How could I not be moved? I had indeed fallen in love with him.I wrapped my arms around him. Tears shimmered in the corners of my eyes as my mouth twitched.I wanted to tell him yes. However, Scott suddenly said, "There is still one more obstacle between us, though, Adrianna. It's Terry."For the sake of his sister, he'll never let us be together. Moreover, don't you also want revenge? Once we topple the Finnen Family, we can finally be together."He shoved a USB flash drive in my hand."He wants you to be with him, right? Good. Go to him and copy all of the company secrets stored within his personal computer."I froze. As I stared at the face I knew well, my mind was blank.Just a moment ago, he claimed he wou
