Adrian casually chucked Moses’ body aside followed by the sound of a loud “thud.”“Aah!”The men Moses brought scattered like a flock of headless chickens after Moses was killed. None of them were brave enough to remain there for another second longer.Abigail was screaming in fear. Meanwhile, Jimmy had taken flight, not daring to stay and face Adrian.“Wait for me, Jim!” Abigail screamed.Jimmy fled at the speed of lightning and got into his car without so much as a backward glance.Moses never expected he would end up dead on this trip to Swallowston, nor had Jimmy expected to come across someone like Adrian in his lifetime.After Jimmy and the rest ran off with their tails between their legs, despite how arrogant they seemed a moment ago, Adrian gave Daniel a call to clean up the mess.After that, he brought Samantha to the hospital for her check-up as if nothing had happened.***In the meantime, Jimmy and Abigail fled all the way to Swallowston’s outskirts.As they both
She frowned and said, “You can forget about it, Jim. I have a boyfriend. Now, hurry up and get me home!“The more he looked at her, the more Jimmy was attracted to Abigail. Although she definitely did not have a physique as decent as Joanna’s, it still did not stop her from having a beautiful appearance overall.Jimmy’s lust grew even stronger as he said, “Please sleep with me, Abby. I really like you.”“Are you insane? Don’t you realize that I’m way out of your league? You must be delusional!”Unfortunately, Abigail’s refute sparked Jimmy’s anger, causing him to frown in displeasure.He stared at Abigail and said, “I’m delusional? Fine! I’ll show you whether I’m delusional or not!”“Aaah! What are you doing, Jimmy?!”After that, Abigail’s terrified screams from the car could be heard throughout the outskirts.***At sunset, Samantha left the hospital after completing her check-up. Adrian and Joanna had accompanied her the entire time.Joanna reached out her hand and caressed
Joanna was horrified when she heard this.Meanwhile, Samantha recalled something and said, “Didn’t she leave with Jimmy? Do you think she was…”Joanna suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, and both women trembled from the horrifying image in their heads.While both of them were silent, Adrian said, “Find out what happened and report to me the moment you find out something. This may be a case linked to me.”“Yes, sir.”Adrian continued to drive to Jewel Road after hanging up.Joanna sat up and leaned in toward him. “You don’t think Jimmy’s behind this, do you? It’s obvious that someone was attracted by Abigail’s looks and…”Adrian replied, “It’s a possibility, but let’s not jump to conclusions before we find out the truth.”Samantha asked, “Will you be able to find out what happened?”Adrian nodded. “We should be able to within the hour. There are surveillance cameras throughout Swallowston so we’ll be able to deduce who the culprit is based on who Abigail was with and who
Despite her denial, Joanna was, in fact, swayed deep inside.However, she was not going to act on her feelings since there were too many things she could not change at that point—Jimmy murdering Abigail for example!‘The Drakes will no doubt be furious when they find out, and Father’s going to receive the brunt of their wrath when that happens.’***Adrian and his family sat down for dinner after they were done discussing the topic.Rue made a single bowl of chicken soup for Samantha, while an envious Adaline was only able to watch on.Samantha was clearly the one most well taken care of in the family at the moment. After all, she was carrying Adrian’s child.While they were having dinner, the sound of engine roars could be heard outside all of a sudden. Then, glaringly bright lights from several pairs of headlights shone into the house, lighting up the entire place. Despite their best efforts, Jewel Road’s security personnel had failed to stop the cars from entering Adrian’s co
After that, Jimmy turned toward Adrian and yelled, “You’d best realize the amount of trouble you’re in and let her go. Otherwise, I’ll break your legs!“You’ll never be worthy of the DuPont family of Northrive!”Jimmy made a gesture after saying all this, his face filled with glee as though he stood at the top of the world.What made everything even more laughable was the fact that Rosie was excited when she heard Jimmy’s speech. “Well said! That’s my Jim!”Jimmy seemed even more assured of himself when he heard this compliment. However, Rosie’s words left Samantha and Rue speechless.‘Patrick and his family are deeply engrossed in their own fantasy… Wait till they find out what’s about to happen to them…’Facing the DuPonts, Adrian, too, was extremely speechless. He gave Mya a call, asking her to meet him at his villa. ‘I’m going to make Jimmy pay for his actions today.’After hanging up the phone, Adrian turned toward Patrick and said, “I’m going to make this very clear to you
Jimmy covered his severely bruised face and cried, “My face! My face!!!”He cradled his face as blood and tears flowed down. He was shocked by the outcome. He thought that Adrian would not fight back.For a moment, he regretted his actions.Meanwhile, Rosie screamed like a madwoman when she saw Jimmy being slapped. “Aaaah! How dare you hit my son, you little b*stard! How dare you hit someone far superior to yourself!”Rosie charged at Adrian as she yelled. At the same time, she brought out a dagger she had packed into her handbag beforehand and tried to stab him. Based on this, one could tell just how cruel and wicked Rosie was.Upon seeing this scene, Adrian frowned and lost his patience with the woman. He grabbed Rosie by the back of her head before she could even reach him and kneed her in the stomach.“Argh!”Rosie instantly felt a jolt run through her entire body and her mouth opened in a scream. She then fell to her knees as she clutched her stomach, her eyes glazing over.
Rosie felt pressured after realizing the kind of man she was dealing with.Jimmy hurriedly added with an awkward smile on his face, “My mother’s right. This is all just a huge misunderstanding. We’ll be leaving now!”Jimmy ran toward Rosie and was just about to flee the scene when they suddenly saw a few vehicles from the Battle Warrior Department pulling into One Jewel Road, cutting off their escape route.Mya, who had long, slender legs, got out of the vehicle with more than a dozen men from the law enforcement team. Jimmy, Rosie, and Patrick were confused when they saw Mya, who was seen walking toward Adrian.“I’ve brought the information you requested, War Legate Draco.”“What?! Did she just say ‘War Legate Draco?!’”Rosie and her family looked stunned as they exchanged looks. Suddenly, Patrick started trembling!‘Th-That man is War Legate Draco?!’Patrick instantly took a few steps back from the shock he felt.Seeing this, Rosie anxiously asked, “Wh-Who’s War Legate Draco
With this sudden change, the tables had turned.Rosie and Patrick thought they would successfully take Joanna away that day, so neither of them was expecting such a thing to happen.“Father, help me! Help me!” Jimmy cried as he clutched at Patrick’s pants.Rosie’s legs had already given way, her face drenched with her tears as she felt helpless. With all of this new information coming to light, they could now prove that Jimmy had first forced himself on Abigail before proceeding to kill her.This caused Patrick to flip and kick Jimmy in the face.“How dare you murder someone!”After Jimmy hit the floor from being kicked, he got back up and continued to cry. Next to them, Rosie tried holding Patrick back and yelled, “Pat, you have to save him. He’s your only son. You have to!”Smack!!!Instead of doing as he was told, Patrick turned around and gave Rosie a massive slap in the face. “This is happening because of how much you’ve pampered him his whole life!”Now, it was Rosie’s t
