"Such cheap concern," Heloise sarcastically smiled, slowly turning her head to face Grace."Raising poultry to slaughter poultry, do the poultry need to be grateful to you?"This was an acknowledgment that she was indeed Heloise.Just acknowledge it.Grace's gaze softened as she looked at her. "Heloise, words aren't that simple. Puppies and piglets can survive when thrown on the ground, but if you toss a baby outside with no one to care for it, would it survive?"No, an unattended baby would have only one fate – death.Heloise stared at her, truly surprised that her "mother" had such eloquence."Whether you care or not, you have to consider the fact that the Brook family raised you. Otherwise, you would have died long ago," Grace asserted, each word hitting its mark.In the end, she was just an abandoned baby, unwanted even by her own parents.At Grace's words, Heloise slowly approached them, hands pressed on the table, looking coldly at Grace. Word by word, she said, "Sending me to t
Grace stayed there completely stunned, her shoulders slumping.Gone mad, completely gone mad.Heloise had truly gone mad, actually drinking the poison like that....On that day, Imperial University was bustling and busy.On one side, students skipped classes and were busy condemning the senator for disregarding lives and colluding with the financial conglomerate.On the other side, Heloise drank the poison and walked out of the classroom alone.At the same time, numerous luxury cars urgently parked around Imperial University, enclosing the vast campus.Well-trained bodyguards rushed out of the cars, encircling and rushing into the school. When they encountered students, they asked where Heloise was.The university students thought it was about the senator's affair, but those wealthy and powerful financial conglomerates came to take people, so they tried to stop and protect this brave and clever transfer student.Reginald heard such news as soon as he got off the plane, his face turni
Grace and Coral chased out, witnessing this scene with absolute shock."Is she really going to die?" Coral couldn't believe it.This woman, who managed to return unharmed even after being sent to the slums, was now drinking poison and ending her own life? Just like that, so easily?"The poison acts quickly; soon her internal organs will decay, and it will be fatal within half an hour," Grace stated.She took it out to scare Heloise, but she didn't expect Heloise to be so ruthless."Mom..." Coral grabbed her mother's arm, looking at her with some admiration. "Mom, you're usually so quiet. I didn't expect you to handle things so beautifully."Heloise had become so resolute that she willingly drank poison under her mother's coercion.Something Coral and her father could never achieve.Coral was right; her mom was indeed a tough character."So, I've been telling you and your dad all along, don't be too arrogant or stand out too much. Leave yourself some room. It'll come in handy when it's
The bodyguards stood by, not daring to make a sound.Ben signaled the medical staff, and they quickly rushed forward with a stretcher, ready to receive Heloise."I'll do it!" Reginald, looking at the outstretched hands of the medical staff, spoke coldly.With a gentle motion, he placed the semi-conscious Heloise onto the stretcher. The medical staff hurriedly lifted her onto the ambulance.Reginald stepped onto the vehicle, and with his presence, the medical staff were so intimidated that they stared at him in awe, frozen in place."What are you all looking at? Save the person!" Reginald glared at them.Where did Ben find such a bunch of useless people?"Y-yes, yes." One of the doctors hastily stood up. "Push the equipment, push the equipment!"Reginald sat down nearby, looking up to see two nurses pushing Heloise onto her side on the bed. One of them opened Heloise's mouth, and the doctor, holding a medical tube, inserted it directly as if inserting an inanimate instrument."For fuck
Later, she became the pioneer in searching for food on the island. Every time she discovered new fruits, new species of fish, and so on, she was the first to taste them. Many poisons had no effect on her.Reginald's gaze darkened as he listened. However, when he looked at her calm expression, it seemed like she was stating something very ordinary."Did the Brook family drug you?" he asked coldly."Yes." It wasn't lethal drugs; they just occasionally caused her stomachaches, dizziness, and the like.Heloise nodded. "So, I really wasn't seeking death.""If it weren't for me, you would be dead."Reginald glared at her and picked up a medical report, tossing it onto her bed.Heloise lowered her gaze, reached out, and opened the report. She then saw the clear and detailed data, realizing how vicious the poison given by Grace was. Making it to the point of gastric lavage was a stroke of luck."Thanks to Mr. Wordsworth for saving me. I really don't know how to repay you."This was the second
"..."He must have thought she was going to run away, that's why he hurried back.This man, his desire to keep her as his canary is so strong that it's unshakable. He flew back from abroad just for the possibility that she might leave."That's right. When we heard Miss was in trouble, the Young Master flew the helicopter exceptionally fast, almost getting into an accident. Those bodyguards were not just for show. They couldn't find you, and it was the Young Master who eventually located you," Jane explained.Heloise never felt so grateful to the Young Master. He saved Miss."I was just at the West Gate, you know?"How hard could it be to find her?Heloise was a bit puzzled."Miss, at that time, you couldn't see clearly. You didn't take the path towards the West Gate; everything was chaotic," Harriet told her."..."So that's how it was. No wonder when she heard the bodyguards, she didn't see any coming to find her. In that case, if it weren't for Reginald finding her, no one would hav
"I can't eat these," she said. She could only have liquid food now."I know," Reginald calmly raised an eyebrow. "I'll eat. You can watch."Heloise fell silent. So, he brought all these top-notch dishes just to stimulate her?"Harriet said you're a good eater. Every time there's a new dish, you eat a lot. But they can only make homely food. You probably haven't tried these," Reginald said as he picked up the fork and knife and began to cut into the foie gras drizzled with white truffle sauce. "This was flown in from France. Tastes quite nice with Alba's white truffles."As he spoke, he took a bite of the foie gras.Heloise sat there watching. He chewed slowly, and she could almost imagine the explosion of the fresh aroma of truffles in his mouth.She hadn't ever tasted Alba's truffles before, and her stomach seemed to roar in response.Seeing her stare at him, Reginald looked up at her. "Like it? I'll cut another piece to show you."She took a sharp breath. Was he not only refraining
The towel he used to wipe his head revealed a distinct and handsome face, with a narrow and alluring gaze that exuded a strong aura. Was he planning to spend the night in the hospital room today?People who have undergone stomach washing all look haggard like this. Even she had decided to take it easy for a couple of days before hitting the road again. Surely, he wasn't planning something so beastly?She decided to change the subject first.Thinking this way, Heloise put down her phone and took the initiative to speak, "I heard you caught Grace and Coral.""Yeah," Reginald responded in a deep voice, casually tossing the towel into the trash. He walked to her bed and threw his phone to her. "The startup password is FRW, and there's a monitoring software at the end."It was an English password. He unexpectedly told her his startup password like that.Heloise followed his instructions, unlocked the phone, and opened the last monitoring app. Inside were some surveillance videos, and she c
