she assumed this to be an accident "Huh?" Bethany didn't react right away. She lowered her head to inspect her outfit and suddenly blushed,"Uh... Please wait for a moment. I'll go change my clothes!” She slammed the door shut with a thud after she finished. The door panel almost hit Zayn's nose.Zayn took a step back and chuckled as he looked at the decorations on the door panel, which were shaking slightly.This was the first time he had seen Bethany act so rashly. The door opened after a few minutes.Bethany regained her previous exquisite and fashionable appearance. She made an inviting gesture to Zayn and said, "Please come in, Mr. Meyer." Zayn entered with a nod. Bethany poured a glass of water for him and asked, "What can I help you with, Mr. Meyer?" "Take your clothes off!" Zayn said as he placed his bag on the coffee table. Bethany almost choked and stared at him incredulously, "What are you talking about, Mr. Meyer.” He asks her to take her clothes off? When Zayn realised
"We haven't. He ran away with lightning speed, and he had a hat." One of the women answered. Jeff nodded,"It seems that the suspect tried to hide his face on purpose." At this time, the manager of the restaurant came in quickly with two police officers. "Who was the one calling the cops?" An elderly police officer asked. The woman raised her hand, "It was me." "Tell me, what happened?" The elderly officer " took out a notebook and was ready to write. The woman looked at Bethany. When Bethany nodded, the woman started telling him the story. Barbara grabbed the officer's hand and said to him, "Sir, you have to find him!" "Right, Sir, please!" Jeff didn't speak. He was looking down and in his thoughts. "Don't worry. That is our job. We will definitely find who it was." The officer comforted Barbara and the two kids, then he drew his hand back and started asking Bethany some questions. After doing so, he frowned, “That will be hard”. "Why?” The manager asked He was worried, the
"Did you do it?" Bethany pinched the phone tight, confronting. Danica looked bewildered, "What the hell? Did I do?" "Are you the one who tried to kill me last night and today?" Bethany stood up. Danica hesitated, then laughed, "Wow, it seemed like I wasn't the only one who hates you. Someone else went this far to take your life already!" "What do you mean? You didn't do it?" Bethany squinted her eyes. Danica curled her lips, "Of course , it wasn't me. I sure as hell want you dead, but since we were rivalries, everyone would point their fingers at me if you ever got into trouble. So clearly, I wasn't stupid enough to be a criminal. How about you think back on all the other adversaries you have made in the past?" Then she hung up as she finished. Bethany dropped the phone. Barbara looked down at her, "So she did it then, did she? My dear?" Bethany was rubbing against her temples, “I don't know. The reason why I called her is to test her. If she is the one, I would know something i
"No. I was saved by my mother in time." Bethany shook her head. "Is that so? That's great.” Jeff's grip on her shoulders loosened. She looked at the time. "Jeff, it's late, so I should go back. Donnie must be so worried since I left when she wasn't back yet” “I will drive you home." He picked up the car keys. She waved her hand. "No need. You are not off duty yet, so I will go back by myself." Seeing that she was so determined, he had to give up and put the keys back where they were kept then. “ Give me a call when you get home" "Mm," she replied with a smile, got up, and left. As soon as she left, he picked up his cell phone with a cold face and made a call. It was soon connected. And he directly shouted angrily on the phone, "Didn't I tell you to stop laying hands on Bethany? You almost took her life yesterday, and I did not do anything to you. But you still tried to kill her today! If you dare to try it another time, I will expose you!" "I got it. Don't worry. I won't lay ha
Roseanne felt her ears buzzing from the horn and she turned back in anger, “Who is it?”“It's me” Zayn got down from the car. Roseanne quickly put away the anger on her face and blinked in disbelief, “Mr. Meyer? Why are you here?”“I was just passing by. What's wrong with her?” His eyes landed on Bethany? Bethany buried her head on Roseanne's shoulders and the falling hair covered her face completely “Bethany is drunk” Roseanne said helplessly. “You have been drinking, huh?” Zayn narrowed his eyes and asked. She nodded.“Benny is a bit sad.”“sad? ” he pursed his thin lips, “Why?” She looked at him angrily and muttered, “Why? It is all because of you." "Huh?" He could not hear her clearly and scowled. She returned to her senses and shook her head quickly. "It's nothing. Mr. Meyer, can you drive us to the nearest subway station?" "Get in." He pulled open the door of the back seat. She hurriedly said thanks and helped Bethany get into the car. He also sat back in the car, glanced
Zayn's pupils slightly contracted as he stared at her, "My apartment." “Why am l in your apartment, Mr. Meyer?” Bethany lifted her arm and rubbed her swollen temples, trying to sit up. But once she moved her body, she moaned in pain and her body fell back onto the sofa. Her head became dizzy due to the fall and memories of last night began to emerge in her mind bit by bit. After remembering that she had that kind of thing with Zayn last night, she did not feel good. Bethany stiffly turned her neck and blankly stared at the man wearing a clean white bathrobe on the sofa. She spoke after quite some time, "Mr. Meyer, last night, we..." “Regarding what happened last night, I'll be responsible for you!" Zayn handed the clothes to her. Bethany took the clothes and put them on the armrest of the sofa and then covered herself with the blanket. She endured the pain and sat up, "No need, I don't need you to be responsible!" Zayn's eyes instantly narrowed, "What did you Say?”Bethany lo
Zayn was indeed meticulous enough. He was so meticulous that he even prepared the contraceptive pill. Was he so worried about her getting pregnant and didn't want that? Bethany gripped the box in her hand. Although she was clear that Zayn's action of letting her take the pill was not wrong, she still felt a little bad. However, Bethany did not dwell on it. After letting out a sigh, she directly opened the box, took out the instructions, and read them once. She then took two capsules and threw them into her mouth. Then, she picked up the cup of water on the coffee table and swallowed them together with water. After taking the pill, she took the phone and intended to send a message to Zayn to tell him that she had taken the medicine, to reassure him. But after thinking about it, she felt it would be bad if Jessica or Danica accidentally saw her message. Therefore, Bethany deleted the line of text she had typed without hesitation and exited the texting application. Then, she tappe
"I've been back a couple of days already," Barbara said with a slight smile.Antonio rubbed the dragon head on his cane, "All these years, how have you been abroad?” He asked with a tone filled with supposed concerns. Barbara rubbed the emerald green ring, an heirloom from her grandmother, on her index finger, "Of course, I'm doing great. Look how young and lively I am. You, on the other hand..."She looked at his cane, then fixed her eyes on his white hair, and laughed, "You look way older than when we last saw each other seven years back. What?, has this person been sucking you dry?” Barbara pursed her lips at Daphne. Antonio coughed to hide his feelings of awkwardness and said nothing. Daphne could tell Barbara was dissing her, and raised a hand, ready to slap her. Bethany squinted, and grabbed Daphne's wrist, "Daphne, you'd best not to resort to violence Otherwise, I'll call the cops on you for assault and battery!” "You... ” Daphne glared at Bethany. Barbara then patted Beth
