“How did you do it?” He looked at her in confusion. Quincy, who had been shouting and cursing at him just moments ago, had really fallen asleep just like that! “I told you that I’m a perfumer. She was in a maniacal state just now. Once I reassured her, she calmed down at once. Naturally, she felt tired after that and fell asleep.Dayton narrowed his eyes and glanced at her evaluatively. “Did you let her smell your fragrance just now?” he asked suspiciously.“Right. This is the fragrance. I always bring a few bottles with me,” she said as she took out a small bottle. It was filled with a light blue-colored liquid.Dayton raised the bottle in front of his nose and took a whiff. The fragrance had a unique smell, but it did not affect him much.“Will she calm down as long as I let her smell this?”Sharon smiled faintly and said, “Of course, you can’t depend on this alone. It depends on what you do as well.”“Me?”“That’s right. She’s like this all because of you, right?”Dayton’s
It was not the first time that Eugene had told him something like that. He blamed everything on Simon every time something happened to Sharon. He always told Simon not to pester Sharon ever again.However, his tone was way firmer this time around.“Shar has suffered enough. She has already lost a child because of you, yet you still allowed another woman to move into the Zachary household with your child. What do you take her for? This is no different from you piercing her heart with a knife!” Eugene took advantage of this opportunity to give Simon a thorough scolding.“She has to see that woman and her child every day. It’s a cruel punishment for her. Do you know that?” If Sharon had been willing to go back with him back then, he would have brought her back to the Newton household.“If I knew that things would turn out this way, I would’ve kidnapped her back to the Newton household. That way, she wouldn’t have been forced to jump into the ocean. We don’t even know if she’s dead o
He shook his head and rejected her. “No, I can’t do that for you.” “I’m not asking you for much. If you don’t do this for me, I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to calm Quincy down.”“Are you threatening me?” Nobody in this world dared to threaten the young master of the Night Empire!“I’m just discussing some terms with you.” Sharon reckoned that what she was doing now was completely reasonable.“Nobody is allowed to discuss terms with me!”“If you’re going to continue acting so unreasonably, don’t expect Quincy to change her attitude toward you. Her mood won’t improve as well,” Sharon said with a shrug. A cold glint flashed across Dayton’s gaze as he exuded a sense of sternness. She really was not afraid of death! “It’s no wonder Simon Zachary fell for another woman. You have such a bad temper.”“Well, we’re both alike,” Sharon replied. She did not back down.After a brief silence, Dayton said, “I can’t let Simon Zachary go. After all, Tammy died because of him.”He st
“You want me to listen to Dayton Night? That’s impossible! Don’t even think of it!” Quincy had just agreed to work with Sharon, but she immediately denied her request after that.She would rather die than listen to Dayton Night!She suppressed the burgeoning anger within her and spoke out before Sharon could say anything. “Do you know what he has done? Do you know how much I hate him?”“You can tell me.” Sharon had not figured out everything that had happened between them.Perhaps it was because she was recalling the past, but Quincy’s eyes immediately turned red. She felt like crying, but she stubbornly stopped her tears from sliding down her face. A hateful glint flashed across her gaze.“He murdered my parents and took away everything the Lanes owned! He doesn’t deserve to be the young master! He snatched that title!“He still wants to harm me right now! If I knew that he was such an ungrateful bastard, I wouldn’t have asked my father to bring him back from the orphanage when
Dayton extended his pointer finger at him and shook it. “You’re wrong. I didn’t save her. I captured her.” Jesse’s eyes glinted upon registering what he said. “Hand her over to me.” As long as he had her, Simon would definitely cater to his every whim. Nevertheless, Dayton rejected him. “No, she’s mine now.”Jesse did not understand what he meant. He asked in shock, “Young Master, have you fallen for her?”Sharon almost spat out a mouthful of blood. How could he even think of that?Dayton glared at Jesse speechlessly. “I don’t fall for married women,” he said in a sluggish tone.Sharon glared at Dayton. What was wrong with married women? Did that make her any less attractive?“Then why can’t you hand her to me?” Jesse sighed out in relief. At least Dayton had not fallen for Sharon.“She’s useful to me now.”“Young Master Night, I hope you remember that you owe Miss Tammy. This woman is one of the culprits behind her death. You can’t keep her alive.”Jesse simply wanted to
“Sir, look at this.” Claude handed an envelope that looked like an invitation to Simon.After accepting the envelope, Simon realized that this was not an invitation. It was a declaration of war. “The young master of the Night Empire sent you a written challenge to declare war!” It was the first time Robert had encountered such an arrogant and obnoxious person!Besides, what era were they living in now? He actually sent them a declaration of war?“President Zachary, are you going to accept the challenge?” Claude asked.Simon was pretty taken aback. This was the first time that he had received a declaration of war as well. Dayton Night seemed like a pretty interesting person.“Why not?” he asked as a cold hint flashed across his gaze. Furthermore, Sharon was still in Dayton’s hands.“I’ll go with you,” Claude said immediately.“I’ll follow as well,” Robert added at once....“You sent him a declaration of war?” Sharon asked as she stared at Dayton in shock.He raised his br
Dayton nodded and said, “You’re right. If so many people see you dying at my hands, your glorious reputation will be ruined.”Simon remained calm and collected in the face of Dayton’s humiliating words. He did not get angry. Anyone could say such harsh words, but it remained unknown if Dayton really had the abilities to do as he said.“Oh, that’s right. It was Miss Newton who suggested that I look for you today. She hates you for betraying her, so she wants me to kill you,” Dayton suddenly said.Sharon could not help but glare at him. What a load of nonsense.The expression on Simon’s cold and handsome face faltered, but his gaze on Sharon remained still. He said in a heavy voice, “She has every right to hate me.”Sharon’s heart lurched after hearing what he said. Her nose felt sore as well. She then moved her gaze to look away from him.Dayton looked at Simon in surprise. He chuckled lightly and said, “You know yourself well. Are you ready?” He would not show him any mercy.“
Sharon’s heart raced. She then caught sight of the spirited man on the speedboat.He was sitting in the speedboat in a calm and collected manner as he exuded strength and power, making it seem as though he was undefeatable.Sharon could not stop herself from walking over to greet him. She was so emotional that it seemed like she was welcoming a victorious hero back home.Everyone saw it clearly. Simon had returned, and Dayton was not following behind him.Did that mean Dayton had failed? Had Simon defeated him with just a single bullet? “Simon…” Sharon ran over. She could not stop herself from hugging him. She continued muttering inwardly. Luckily, he had returned. Simon’s heart, which had been afloat for a long time, finally rooted itself when she hugged him. He hugged her back forcefully in return.“Sorry, I’ve made you suffer because of me,” he said in a low voice, which contained a hint of pity.Sharon shook her head. She understood now why his attitude toward her had cha
