Chapter One Hundred Ten "I have eyes and ears all over this country, which is why I am confident that I will find Clement quickly. You don't need to worry," Jethro said calmly and nonchalantly. Seeing Gemma remain silent and not continue the conversation, he sighed softly and said, "Once the boy returns, you can talk to him. Clement definitely needs someone who can comfort him. The relationship between me and the boy is not great... so I would like to ask if you can stay until he returns?" Gemma was surprised by this unexpected request and didn't know how to respond. She didn't know the man's intentions, and there was a seed of doubt in his heart about her identity. If she stayed longer with him, Gemma was sure she would be easily exposed. She also felt that Jethro might actually be crazy, as he had tried to approach her several times as a substitute for 'Gemma Robert.' "Why? Aren't you happy?" Jethro asked again. But without her son, she couldn't be at ease. Otherwise, she wouldn
Chapter 111 Gemma sat quietly alone on the sofa, appearing as though she was lost in thought, trying to avoid talking to Jethro. But Jethro was not one to feel ashamed, and he sat down next to her. "Do you want something to eat?" Gemma reluctantly forced a smile and tried to move away from him, but he just shifted closer until she couldn't move any further. "Mr. Thompson, could you please sit a little further away from me? I can't be comfortable like this," Gemma sighed, not realizing that Jethro was truly so shameless. Jethro innocently nodded and said, "Oh, really?" But he showed no intention of moving from his seat. This atmosphere made Gemma feel confused and anxious, more so than just now, whenever she faced Jethro, she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, trembling with discomfort. If he refused to leave, she would be the one to move to another seat. Gemma stood up and walked over to the nearby chair, her expression clearly showing her unhappiness. "Alright, Mr. Thompson
Chapter One Hundred TwelveJethro tilted his head, eyes still fixed on the big picture in front of him. "Really? I've obviously called you, but you must have been so focused on this picture that you didn't notice."“You think it's beautiful, every time I'm sad, I come here to look at her. Just looking at it makes me feel a lot more comfortable.” Jethro glanced at Gemma's reaction.“Sometimes I can't help but use this picture to comfort myself. Her charm drives me crazy.”Gemma was surprised to hear this man say, she didn't dare to believe that someone who was always cold and arrogant like Jethro had to use her image to comfort himself? He also spoke casually without being embarrassed in front of her.So he hasn't had another woman all this time?“Why do you look so surprised? Is it unusual for a husband to masturbate with his wife's image?" Jethro smiled mischievously, his eyes always watching Gemma's amused expression.Gemma turned pale when he heard that, he said that was admitting
Chapter One Hundred and Thirteen "Sir, everything has been arranged satisfactorily," Z reported respectfully. Jethro continued to gaze coldly in the direction of Gemma as Clement led her back to the bedroom. He knew that his plan had succeeded, but the results were not as effective as he had hoped. "What about Harvey?" Jethro asked coldly. "As you predicted, Harvey Susan had people searching for Ms. Gemma all night, and the search area has expanded significantly in just one night. I believe they will quickly find their way here, and for now, Ms. Gemma is still going by the name 'Emma,' the wife of Harvey Susan," Z replied, deliberately bringing up this matter as a cautious reminder to his master. Jethro glanced at Z, well aware of this fact, as it was also part of his plan. Harvey wouldn't just sit idly by and let him do whatever he pleased. Directly confronting him would only put him at a disadvantage. "Continue with the next step of the plan. Let him keep searching; it won't ma
Chapter One Hundred and FourteenGemma and Clement lay asleep in the room, while outside, Alex had set up hidden cameras to monitor every corner of this villa, which was previously unused and had few belongings, with no household staff either.Alex never imagined that one day Gemma, Jethro's wife, would return. At first, Alex was astonished because when he was abroad on a mission, he only heard from subordinates that Ms. Gemma had committed suicide.That incident had a profound impact on the master's psyche. Jethro had many enemies, and if they knew about his emotional struggle due to his wife's death, it would be dangerous. They might exploit it to create a new 'Gemma Roberts.'In this story, there were many ambiguities that couldn't be put into words. Alex looked at the owner's expressions and knew that the woman in the bedroom was indeed Gemma.Yet, Alex couldn't understand why Gemma refused to acknowledge herself and return to her husband once again.Since Jethro married Gemma, Al
Chapter One Hundred and FifteenGemma looked at Clement with affection and concern as she hurriedly approached his side to examine the bruise on her son's arm. The bruise was quite large, obviously the result of a strong impact that had caused Clement considerable pain."Mommy... it hurts so much," Clement said, his teary eyes welling up. He gritted his teeth as if enduring terrible pain.Gemma felt a pang of pain when Clement called her "mom." Her current status was not suitable for him to address her in such a way, but she couldn't bring herself to stop him. Gemma turned her gaze to the maid and said, "Could you please get me some medicine to apply on the little one's bruise? Thank you."With a cold expression, the maid nodded slightly and left, returning shortly with a first aid box in hand. Gemma deftly applied the pain-relief ointment on Clement's bruise, and every action was gentle and tender, even a slight frown from Clement made her anxious."Now, it's all right. Perhaps you'r
Chapter One Hundred and SixteenWith less than half an hour before landing, Jethro sighed, feeling wretched and pitiful. He knew the price he had to pay for the things he had done that hurt and pained Gemma.It would be selfish to hope for Gemma's forgiveness. Jethro felt like a beggar of the past, gnawing at memories that had long passed. He craved the simplicity and love Gemma had offered, the things he once held in his hands but deliberately let go of.Gemma wouldn't easily forgive him as she had done in the past, and he understood that, but he couldn't comprehend why he kept yearning."Why does she have to pretend not to remember anything about me? Clearly, she has remembered everything..." Jethro said.His subordinates by his side listened but remained silent. Jethro fell into contemplation; he had been in this state for a while now, asking himself questions he couldn't answer. Sometimes he would ask his subordinates and those below him, but no one could help him with those quest
Chapter One Hundred Seventeen "The organization's structure is truly impressive; otherwise, it would have collapsed years ago. But how many people are at the top remains just our speculation," Louis praised openly. BIK operates so boldly, yet its leadership remains shrouded in mystery, which intrigues him. "What we can do is send more people to infiltrate and avoid making any hasty moves. We must not disturb the hornet's nest. What do you all think?" Jethro suggested, knowing that BIK was gaining strength, and a direct confrontation might be disadvantageous at the moment. However, they still lacked a deep understanding of the organization. Harvey chuckled sarcastically upon hearing Jethro's words, "Your approach seems quite different from your usual style, Jethro. Since when did you choose the cautious path?" Jethro sensed the mocking tone in Harvey's remark but chose not to pay attention to it. After all, even though they were sitting at the same table, they held entirely differen
Chapter One Hundred Fifty-EightThe butler knocked on the door interrupting their conversation, Harvey was getting the momentum to tease Quinn when he lost interest but he still had to stop. Looking at Quinn's slender and somewhat weak body made him want to protect her even more.Quinn's physical strength is much weaker than Harvey's, not to mention the natural traits between the two sexes Quinn was raised as a little princess and Harvey also regularly meets and confronts dangerous elements. dangerous because he is simply not an ordinary man."Come in."Quinn had gone into the bathroom to wash off all that was left of her body, her whole body was wet and damp which made her very uncomfortable.The old housekeeper saw the clothes scattered on the floor and understood, so he only smiled slightly. His master finally got what he wanted."Grandfatherreplace Help me make the bed, I want to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner for her. At least make her comfortable without getting angry.” Ha
Chapter One Hundred Fifty-Seven Quinn completely lost consciousness, she just wanted her body to become more comfortable, completely unaware of what she was doing and forgot why she became like this. “Um… ha… ha… don't… ah… uh… that place… don't touch… it's very strange…” After that night, he had not touched a single woman, because everything made him nauseous and uncomfortable. Listening to the moans of the person under the fishnet, Harvey seemed to hear an invitation from her. His penis was so hard it was about to explode. He deliciously licked the juice that was sticking to his lips. “Your water is really delicious and fragrant. Does it feel good when you lick it like that? Do you like it?” The black pants with the penis quickly popped out, its shape was terrible, the veins bulged out, and clear liquid was flowing out from the glans of the penis. The huge penis was constantly twitching because of excitement and now it really wanted to penetrate her there. Harvey placed his pe
Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-Six Quinn knew she had made a mistake, but she didn't want to admit it; admitting it would be extremely embarrassing. Harvey's words were meant to make her realize that she couldn't escape from here and that no one would come to rescue her. Unexpectedly, there were times when Harvey enjoyed his own mansion because it could make Quinn completely lose hope of calling for help. "YOU...!" Quinn growled, she really didn't want this, but she understood that her current situation was futile. She reluctantly bit her lip, expressing her helplessness and resignation. "Just a moment ago, you were screaming as if I were tormenting you, and now you're acting all sulky and crying like a child? You're really adorable, Quinn," Harvey said as he kissed her beautiful face, kissing away the tears streaming down it. "Hmmm... do whatever you want," Quinn gritted her teeth, enduring what was to come because she knew that making love was very painful, like feeling her body
Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-FiveHarvey held Quinn in his arms, observing her confusion and fear as he carried her. Despite her distress, she clung to him, and he held her tightly. In reality, her embrace was likely driven by her own fear, yet she held onto him as if seeking comfort.Slowly, Harvey approached the bedside and gently placed Quinn onto the bed. As her back made contact with the soft surface, she finally let go of him, allowing herself to be laid down. Just as she was about to spring up from the bed, Harvey swiftly caught hold of her ankle and pulled her back.With her right leg lifted and exposed, Quinn's dress was pulled up by this uncouth man, leaving part of her smooth, white buttocks visible in front of Harvey's eyes. Embarrassed and infuriated, she quickly tugged her dress down, a mix of shame and anger in her expression.Harvey seemed oblivious to his crude behavior towards the young woman, his gaze fixed on the exposed, tender skin of her buttocks. His grip on h
Chapter One Hundred Fifty-FourHarvey's smile froze and became awkward, he didn't need the documents in front of him to read, instead, he looked at Quinn and asked, "Quinn, what does this mean?"Quinn was fed up with Harvey's repetition. Just now, Harvey deliberately pretended not to understand what she was saying. She didn't pay attention, but the documents were right in front of her, so she couldn't pretend not to know anymore."You know very well, no need to ask me again. After you sign, I will ask my father to gather both clans to consider and annul our engagement. Fortunately, we haven't actually married, so we don't need lawyers for this." Quinn chuckled lightly and urged him to read.She didn't want things to spiral out of control and explode. She especially didn't want her parents to know that she met Harvey today to discuss these matters. If they found out she met Harvey to have him sign those documents, they would strictly forbid her.At present, even her parents had sided w
Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-ThreeThe conversation was going nowhere as Quinn deliberately failed to grasp her father's words. She kept shifting the topic, making someone as composed and gentle as Mr. Reed infuriated.Expelled from the living room, Quinn couldn't help but secretly chuckle. Of course, she understood the words her father uttered, and she comprehended them very well. After all, the current issue wasn't merely about the mutual benefits of the marriage alliance between the two clans. It had evolved into an entirely different matter, far beyond what Quinn could have imagined.Inside the living room, Mr. Reed sighed heavily, leaning back. "If Quinn continues like this, Harvey will lose his temper. I never expected him to end up desiring our daughter after vehemently opposing their engagement earlier."Mrs. Reed, who already held a deep dislike for Harvey due to prior events, was now even more annoyed as Harvey purposefully threatened her husband. However, she could only re
Chapter One Hundred Fifty-TwoMr. Reed sighed heavily, uncertain about what Harvey might do next. The documents and records detailing matters that affected the Reed family and his company were being handed over by Harvey's associates in excessive amounts. While he received only copies, the originals were in Harvey's possession. The longer this issue persisted, the more likely it would become public knowledge, jeopardizing the honor and reputation of the Reed family.Mr. Reed looked at Harvey and could sense that Harvey's patience had worn thin; hence, Harvey wanted a private meeting. "So, what do you want at last?" Mr. Reed inquired.Harvey calmly gazed at Mr. Reed, the man before him being the future father-in-law. Though Harvey was deliberately applying pressure, he didn't want this matter to reach Quinn's ears."You're aware, sir. I want your daughter. Quinn Reed," Harvey stated, revealing his sole desire.Mr. Reed narrowed his eyes as he silently evaluated Harvey. Initially, Mr. R
Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-OneHarvey clenched his fist in anger, crushing the wine glass beside him. He had spent a lot of time thinking about gifts for Quinn, trying to avoid repeating past presents. Yet, all he had received in return over these past times were cold indifference from her and her family."Summon V here," Harvey exhaled sharply, reaching for a tissue to wipe his hands before continuing to write his letter. Despite his discomfort, he pressed on with the unfinished letter.The delivery person heard Harvey's words like a lifeline, quickly escaping the room. A while later, the old steward also entered Harvey's office.The steward was elderly, but his demeanor remained composed and swift, never losing his elegance. He calmly inquired, "What do you need, sir?"Harvey didn't look at the steward, his attention still on writing the letter to Quinn. In the past, he had admired Gemma's beauty, which made writing letters to her effortless. But now, he couldn't do the same."Ho
Chapter One Hundred and FiftyQuinn's words had left Mrs. Reed unsure of what else to say to change her daughter's mind at this moment. Quietly observing her daughter's expression, it seemed that her daughter truly had no intention of altering her decision.After finishing breakfast, Quinn went out into the courtyard to enjoy the tranquility and fresh air. In the past, her mother often came here to have tea, finding it monotonous and uninteresting as she could only sit in one place without doing much.Unexpectedly, Quinn now found solace in this monotony. She could sit here all day without wanting to leave. A maid brought tea to Quinn and poured it for her. At the same time, another maid brought over pre-cut fruits and pastries."Do the two of you have any more tasks to attend to?" Quinn casually inquired.The maids thought Quinn was questioning them and became quite anxious. However, contrary to their thoughts, Quinn simply spoke again."If you're not busy anymore, join me for some t
