It seemed like the questions in his heart had started to find their answers...Madelyn's eyes were already dry. She paid no attention to the child that Margaret had brought to her. She did not even spare a glance at them. Then, she headed straight upstairs.Recalling everything that had happened made her feel like her heart was stabbed a million times.Zach had hurt her in two lifetimes.Madelyn just could not picture herself being together with him ever again.After entering her room, Madelyn sat at the edge of the bed, ran her fingers through her hair, and burst out crying.She did not expect Zach to feel guilty after listening to what she told him. She only hoped that he would understand what she felt and let her go.As she calmed herself down, she remembered the note that Mya had given to her earlier. Zach was in the car earlier, so she did not have the chance to read it.She unfolded the crumpled note and saw the three words on the wrinkled paper, "Check your email."Made
However, Zach had promised her that he would not harm anyone from the Arnold family.Why would he lie to her?With her limbs turning colder, Madelyn reluctantly contacted someone she did not want to deal with.The phone rang for a few seconds, and then it was connected."Are you looking for me?" Kai asked. He sounded very cautious.Madelyn panicked and quickly hung up the phone.Kai colluded with Zach, so Madelyn figured that she should not trust him as well.Suddenly, Madelyn thought about something. She zoomed in on those pictures and quickly recognized the location. They were all taken near the sea around Ventropolis.Madelyn had heard about a plane crash not long ago, but she had never expected Ethan to be on the plane.She immediately rushed out of the room with her phone as if she had lost her mind.She could not believe that Ethan's death was real.'Why would Zach kill him? He already has everything he wants!'Ethan has done nothing to him. Zach is nothing but a hear
Cecilia had gone insane!Her love for Zach had turned into a sickly obsession.They were born to be the same kind of people who would destroy anything that they could not have."...Did you spike my drink?" Zach frowned. His body swayed as he slowly began to lose consciousness. Suddenly, he felt like he could see Madelyn's face.She was smiling at him.Then, he seemed to hear Madelyn saying to him, "Zach, don't you want me? Come on!"A rush of heat coursed through his body. Suddenly, he turned around and pinned Cecilia beneath him. Then, he tore her dress apart violently and found out that the bra she wore was in his favorite style and color.Cecilia shut her eyes, savoring the pleasure Zach brought as she moaned softly.Suddenly, Zach's phone on the table vibrated. There were only a handful of people who had Zach's number.Apart from Kevin who would call him frequently for work-related matters, the other caller would be the landline at the Jent residence.Thick clouds covered
The air in the luxurious private room of the nightclub was filled with the scent of alcohol and extravagance.A man and a woman were entwined on the sofa, immersed in lust. Then, the door of the private room was suddenly kicked open with a loud bang.A server tried to stop the intruder. "Sir, you can't go inside," he said.Cecilia had applied some aphrodisiac on her lips and accidentally consumed a small amount of it, making her half-conscious. As she heard the loud bang, she turned to the door. Before she could see who that was, the man on top of her was lifted off of her."How could you still have the mood to mess with another woman? Zach, you're so bold!" Kai swung his fist at Zach's face. It was so powerful that he almost fell to the ground. However, Kai grabbed him by the collar to stop him from falling. He could immediately tell that Zach was drugged upon looking at his condition; his body was burning hot.Cecilia quickly got dressed after seeing that Kai was about to take Z
Maybe the chance was minuscule, but he had to try anyway. He could not bear to just give up on her like this, even if there was just a 0.1 percent chance.Then, Kevin's call came in, "Ms. Jent disappeared around the border sea area of Ventropolis..."The car immediately fell silent, then Kai pounded the steering wheel."What the fuck, Zach Jardin! I told you not to do anything to Ethan, but you just wouldn't listen!"Kai should have guessed that Madelyn would search for Ethan's remains. But the search and rescue team had looked for eight days and found nothing; what could she possibly find there?The direction where the lightning and thunder had just struck was right at the border. With Madelyn's current health, Kai had no idea if she could withstand the storm."You'd better pray she's okay."The rain continued, and the car kept driving.Kevin arrived just in time. When he saw the approaching vehicle, everyone got out of the car in the rain.Kevin walked over with a black umbr
Madelyn passed out for a long time, but she could hear someone talking next to her.She knew it was Zach. Even with her eyes closed, she could hear him speaking. Zach repeatedly wiped her body with warm water, groomed her hair, and changed her into clean clothes.Kai entered the room and saw Zach, who had gone mad, and said hesitantly, "I've already told you the surgical risk. The surgery can be done one week after she wakes up, so you'd better be prepared for it.""She's always been fine. I'm not worried at all."Zach had not slept for three days after finding Madelyn. He wore the same outfit as before, with messy hair and bloodshot eyes. He had always been a clean freak, but after three days without a shower, a strange odor clung to his body.Even so, he still took meticulous care of Madelyn."I know you can't accept it, but that's the truth. She'll die without the surgery." Kai said."Why didn't you tell me about this earlier then?""She wanted me to hide it from you. Beside
Madelyn could only belong to him, and only him...A week had passed, and Zach had been lying next to her. He did not dare to make any big movements as he held her close.Zach had never expected that Madelyn would leave him.He had neither power nor money back then, so he could not provide her with the best. Now that he finally had everything, he could easily give her whatever she wanted.In the dark room, Zach buried his face in Madelyn's neck with his eyes closed, "Should I have been more heartless since the beginning? If you had never met him, you'd be mine forever."At midnight, Kai returned to his office, drained. He noticed light seeping through the door crack, and he immediately turned cautious.He pushed the door open and saw Lana lying on the sofa, appearing to be asleep. Then, his alertness went away.Lana was sleeping soundly when she suddenly felt an itch on her face. She opened her eyes and was met with a pair of affectionate, almond-shaped eyes. Kai was scrutinizing
"I... I'm sorry. Today wasn't the right time for me to come. About Andrew's situation, I'll come back another time if it's inconvenient for you today."Lana waited for him in the office all day. If she stayed any longer, she would only be humiliating herself. She did not want to embarrass herself too much.Lana picked up her bag from the sofa and was about to leave when Kai suddenly grabbed her wrist. Then, he lifted her off the ground."Put me down!" Lana said as she struggled.Kai ignored her struggles and went directly into the lounge, throwing her onto the bed and pressing down on her. He grabbed her hands and held them above her head, "Can't I criticize you? When I told you to piss off, why didn't I see you leave?"With one hand, Kai tore her underwear apart. He then unzipped his pants before spreading her legs."No... please don't!"Kai was too frustrated to listen to any of her words and just thrust in aggressively.In less than half an hour, Kai panted as he got off Lan
