Barbara looked at Bethany, "Honey, what did you do?" Bethany said coldly, "Daphne said that I broke Joanna's leg!" "Bullshit!" Barbara yelled at Daphne, "Do you have any evidence to prove that Bethany broke your daughter's leg? Do you know that your daughter made Bethany sprain her foot? How could you be so vicious?" "What do you mean? What I said is the truth! She had someone break Joanna's leg just because Joanna made her foot sprain. She is a vicious one." Daphne looked at Bethany resentfully. Barbara stood between Bethany and Daphne to protect Bethany, "Bethany is vicious? Bethany didn't do anything. Why don't you think your daughter is vicious? She deliberately hurt Bethany!" “Bethany just sprained her foot, but Joanna's leg is broken. If you don't give me an explanation today, I will call the police and sue you for your intentional retaliation!" Daphne shouted, clenching her fist. "Go ahead! Go call the police! We did not do it, anyway. Just let the police investigate it. I
Barbara went mad before Bethany said anything to Antonio. She came up and blocked between Bethany and Antonio. "How dare you bring up that matter!? Joanna would never have the chance to marry if it wasn't me!" she said, looking furious. Antonio was shocked by Barbara’s reaction "Calm down, Barbara!" he said. "No,"Barbara shouted, clenching her hands into fists, "No! Why do I have to calm down? ! After all the vile things that your daughter has done to my precious Benny, I never doubt it! And now you want Bethany to be a nice person and forgive Joanna? Never!" She held Bethany in her arms again and said to her when she finished her sentence to Antonio, "Let's go, honey." Bethany nodded. Bethany and Barbara didn't say anything more to Antonio and Daphne . They left the police station. Barbara was still mad at Antonio on their ride back to the hospital. She couldn't help thinking about it. She found it hard to accept the fact that Joanna was going to get married into an elite family
Zayn lowered his eyes to hide his emotions. "I should be the one who takes the most responsibility if you're right. It has nothing to do with Bethany if I fall in love with her. But why don't you come to me?""No! She's the one who should take responsibility! Because she seduces you!" Joanna shook her head and insisted that Bethany was the problem.Zayn looked at Joanna again and said "You are being unreasonable! Let me tell you something. You shouldn't hurt anyone no matter whose fault it is. I have tolerated you for quite a long time,Joanna. I'll call the press and tell them I'm breaking the engagement between you and young master Sebastian .""Not Never! I will not agree!" Joanna forgot her leg was in a cast and supported her both up with her arms. 'You want to break off my engagement and you wish to get together with Bethany? No way!' she thought."You think you could stop me?" Zayn's lips curled into a teasing smile. Joanna finally knew he meant it.Something came to her mind. Jo
Zayn was just about to answer her when another severe electric current appeared. Bethany had to put her hands over her ears for the reason that her eardrums were so painful as if they had been perforated. But what she did was only a temporary solution. She still suffered the impact of the sound of electric currents. Zayn saw a painful look on her face. He set his mouth in a grim line, and then he took off his coat to cover it over. Bethany’s head, suffering from the pain, Zayn put his hands over her hands, through the coat, to help her against the hurt from the electric currents. Then Bethany could hardly hear the electric currents. The painful look gradually disappeared from her face. She looked up at zayn. At that moment, she realised that Zayn was protecting her when he suffered from the great pain caused by the electric currents. She was deeply touched and then her nose twitched. "Mr. Meyer." Bethany called his name softly, in a strangled voice. Because of the noise, Zayn c
Jeff didn't move at all. Bethany was not sure if he was awake. Three hours later, the plane made a slow descent. Bethany woke Jeff up. After coming back to his senses,Jeff had a spasm of nausea and dizziness.He tried hard to control himself. Unfortunately, it only succeeded for a short time. When he got off the plane, he couldn't help it and threw up into a trash can. Bethany stood beside him, unscrewing a bottle of water. When he finished vomiting, she handed him water and tissues. Taking the water and tissues, Jeff thanked her weakly with a pale face. Bethany was somewhat amused. She looked at him and asked, "You've suffered before. Why are you so airsick this time?" Jeff drank the water and then answered, "I forgot to take my air sickness medicine this time." "Oh, I will buy you some later in case you will suffer again." Hearing his words, Bethany quickly said. Jeff smiled. "You are so nice! Well, I think you need to help me walk. My legs are weak" "No problem” Bethany put
He remembered that she had said these two words to him the night she had wept and panted beneath him. "Boss, what's wrong?" Zayn suddenly stood still. Gael, who was following him, asked. Zayn came back to his senses and coughed softly, pressing his fist to his lips. Then he answered calmly, "Nothing" Glancing at Bethany, who was still surprised not far away, he boarded the cruise. Gael followed him. Seeing Gael and Zayn, Bethany wanted to greet them. However, Jeff suddenly stood in front of her, blocking her view. "What are you looking at?" He asked with a smile. Bethany turned her gaze and shook her head. "Nothing. When will we board?" "Now. We need to check in." Jeff pointed to the front desk and held out his hand to her. Bethany was confused by his action. Jeff explained, "This time, you're here as my girlfriend, so we have to act like a couple. Otherwise, people will suspect." "I see." Bethany gave a faint smile and took him by the hand. Jeff held her hand tightly and le
Bethany was struggling in the water, shouting and waving her arms around frantically.Perhaps it was because she had been struggling for so long that her action had begun to slow down.She was unable to exert herself, and her body began to slowly descend. Seeing this, Jeff immediately dropped the envelope with the pictures in it, jumped over the railing, and swam toward Bethany. "Benny!" When he reached her, he grabbed her by the neck, held her head up, and tock her toward the cruise ship's water-date.But the cruise ship kept moving. It was slow, but it was still much faster than a human's swimming speed. He swam for a long time but did not reach the cruise ship. Instead, he was left behind. But the good news was that someone on the cruise ship had dropped the life buoy. If he grabbed it, people on the cruise ship could pull them out. But he was taking Bethany while swimming, so it wasn't easy to catch the buoy. Plus, he hadn't swum for a long time and hadn't warmed up before j
She remembered that Jeff had saved her before Zayn did, but Jeff suffered a cramp in his calf and was also drowning then. She wondered if he was fine now. Zayn's calm face darkened when Bethany mentioned Jeff.He took her glass and put it on the bed heavily. "You care so much about your boyfriend?" he sneered. "Boyfriend?" Bethany was surprised. Zayn set his mouth in a grim line. "Isn't Jeff your boyfriend?" “Of course not." Bethany was amused "It'sa hoax . We are just friends" “Hoax?"Zayn was feeling better. "Yes.He knew he would meet Miss Quade here. So he asked me to pretend to be his girlfriend, to let Miss Quade give up." "Do you believe his words?" Zayn leaned back in his chair. Bethany blinked. "Why not?" Zayn looked into her clear eyes and felt helpless.She was so simple. It seemed to her that she was pretending to be Jeff’s girlfriend to help him get rid of Ms.Quade but Zayn knew that this was only one of Jeff's purposes. Jeff wanted everyone to regard Bethany as hi
