Shirley held back her tears. She knew that she had become Angeline’s substitute.When Cole reached out to switch on the lights, Shirley held his hand tightly.Thinking that she was probably shy, a blissful smile emerged on his dashing face.He helped her get dressed and kissed her gently on the side of her lips. "I love you, Angeline."I’ll see you tomorrow."Having said that, he got up and walked out the door.Shirley sat up in exhaustion, feeling somewhat at a loss for a moment. When she remembered that Angeline was still lying under the bed, she reached out to wipe her tears away. Her helpless eyes regained their unwavering vigor.Outside the door. When Zayne and Josephine saw Cole, they pounced at him furiously.Josephine slapped Cole in the face, whereas Zayne sent Cole flying with his kicks… They were infuriated.When the Corvettes saw their young master being treated like that, they pulled out their weapons and aimed them at Zayne and Josephine's heads.Cole clambere
Cole's face turned black as coal. "If she refuses to forgive me, then I’ll sever ties with you. When you grow old, you can go ahead and pick up a wild child from the streets to take care of you.”Spencer clenched his fists in anger. “Are you even listening to yourself, kid? Do you think I need you to support me? I’ll ask Carson to do it if you refuse to—”Carson glanced at his young master. He thought that Old Master Yorks had crossed the line this time, hence he decided to stand on Young Master’s side.Carson put on an awkward expression. "I need to take care of my mom and dad too, Old Master Yorks. I’d like to help you, but I can’t. I’m sorry.”Spencer said, "My oh my, what should I do if no one is willing to take care of me? I have so many treasures. Should I perhaps donate it to the country?”Carson turned his coat almost immediately. "Old Master, I can marry a lot of wives and have many sons. I should be able to support another person with no problem.”Cole snapped. "Have yo
Carson was slightly startled. Although Old Master Yorks and Young Master Yorks were both father and son, they both had different styles when it came to treating women.If Old Master Yorks liked a woman, he would do whatever it took to get her.On the other hand, even though Young Master Yorks and Ms. Severe had already slept together, he was still trying very carefully to please her.Whose versions was love supposed to look like?The next day, the sky was still dark.Zayne carried Angeline on his back while Josephine and Sis Shirley held each other as they walked onto the mountain road.When Refreshing Breeze Courtyard was left far behind, Sis Shirley suddenly looked back at the courtyard that was covered in lush greenery. She squeezed out a faint yet sorrowful smile.She had lost her innocence in that place.However, she did not regret it at all.She thought it was worth it because she was able to help Little Angeline out of the predicament.Moreover, the other party was Col
Angeline made no response.The young man helped her up, but Angeline had no strength at all. She fell straight on her back as soon as she sat up.The young man muttered, "Damn, what did they do to you?"Feeling helpless, he brought her hands and hooped them around his neck before carrying her on his back.Lying on the young man’s back, Angeline felt immensely surprised. This young man’s back felt oddly familiar.This was definitely not Jaybie's back, though. Jaybie had a broader back. Moreover, when Jaybie carried her, there would be a barrier in between.This was not Zayne either. Zayne was physically weak and would bend his back when he carried her, doing so with his willpower and endurance.Who could it be, then?Angeline tried her best to take in and experience this familiar feeling. She eventually figured it out.At Grand Asia’s shareholder meeting previously, her body went limp just like today due to the sudden shock she received.Jens was the one who walked over and ge
Carson pulled Zayne away and reasoned with him. "Young Master is more heartbroken than anyone to hear about Ms. Severe’s death."Now that Angeline was gone, Cole’s soul seemed to have left with her as well.In Cole’s case, nothing was more lamentable than a dead heart!It had never occurred to Spencer that he would make things worse. Initially, he thought that once Angeline and Cole had slept together, Angeline would then give in and stay with Cole willingly.What he did not foresee was her strong will to die in glory than to live in dishonor.Angeline's character resembled Cole’s mother very much.Upset and troubled, Spencer came to a small chapel with a gloomy look on his face.His first wife, Crystal Sullivan, was dressed in a khaki habit. She was sitting cross-legged on a mat and praying piously with her eyes closed.Spencer walked over and sat down across from her, staring gloomily at his wife.The demeanor that made her seem as though she had purged her mind of desires a
Chloe was the beauty of Chaurier, and she inherited all of his strengths. She was good in martial arts, had a sharp mind, and was dedicated to helping others. Chloe was the perfect reincarnation. However, the day that she left was the day he felt the pain of his loved one leaving his side.Chloe had knelt in front of him and sobbed. “Father, I’m reluctant to leave you, but for Ronnie’s sickness, I have to look everywhere. If I don’t find Mr. Boye, I swear not to come back. Wait for my news.”Once Chloe left, she never came back.All these years, he tasted the bitterness of his loved one being gone from his side.The look in the grand old master’s eyes became cold. “B*stard, how do you know where the location of the secret shelf is?”He felt that this person must have seen the Nine Paintings that Chloe brought away with her. If his theory was correct, then this person must have been one of the people who caused Chloe’s death.He could not forgive him no matter what. Jay’s gaze
What wrong had he done for him to witness the murder that both his grandfathers brought?His wife and kids also had to suffer. Jay endured it all, but it did not mean that he did not carry any hatred in his heart. Noel had no idea what he was talking about, so he thought that Jay was ignoring him. He suddenly punched him in his stomach with fury.Jay curled up in pain.Grand Old Master Yorks said to him, “If you want to die, I shall grant you your wish.”How could Jay die like that? He still had Angeline and his kids. Besides, he still had a mission to complete. Thus, he replied without hesitation, “Old man, if you kill me, I can guarantee you that someone will take the Nine Paintings and destroy the whole of Mount Pearl. You can taste the bitterness of losing everything that you have by then.”Grand Old Master Yorks’ fist halted in the air. The Nine Paintings was the one thing that he was worried about the most. When Jay saw the fearful look on the Grand Old Master Yorks’ f
Jay’s actions in the next few moments made Noel Yorks regret everything he did.Jay suddenly flew into a fit of rage. As he roared to the skies, he broke free from the ropes that bound him. His eyes were streaked with red, becoming bloodshot.He grabbed the whip in his hand and lashed out, striking one of the lackey’s back. That lackey spewed blood and passed out immediately.Noel stared at him in disbelief. Jay was quick and agile, but the scariest thing was that he had a murderous intent swirling around him as if he could hold a thousand men on his own.Jay held the whip in his hand and continued to whirl it in the air. Crackling sounds rang in the air while a loud rumbling came from wherever his whip came in contact with.Soon enough, the room soon became a pile of rubble.Jay leaped out and rushed toward Refreshing Breeze Courtyard.Noel continued to bark orders, “Stop him. Don’t let him get away.”Noel thought of his Nine Paintings, then looked at the dark aura swirling ar
