"You're right." She smiled back at him.While they talked, Parker and Yuki came over to look for Jeremy."Jerry, are you okay? I heard that you hurt your hand?" When Yuki saw that his arm was really in a cast, she completely disregarded the fact that he had sent her back to the detention center and felt sorry for him."Did you break your arm? Was it because of Fern?" She saw that Fern was right next to him and her anger came surging forth. "You vermin! First, you hurt me, and now, you hurt Jerry. Why don't you just get lost already?!""Yuki, mind your manners," Parker growled at his daughter. "Am I wrong? That’s exactly what she is!" Yuki puffed up and replied. Jeremy frowned and was about to say something when Fern spoke first with a serious look on her face, "I’m not, and I’ve never harmed anyone. You were sent to the detention center because of your actions, so stop blaming me for that. You need to do something about your rotten temper before you really regret it in the futur
Jeremy quickly arranged a press conference. He and Fern attended it together to clarify those rumors on the internet.With the reporters present, Fern spoke about the grudges and entanglements between her and Eugene.She was not his lover. They were previously lovers in college but he later broke up with her.The child was conceived at that time. She had asked him if he wanted a child but he only told her to abort it.She could not bring herself to do so. Even though she was kicked out of the house by her parents, she insisted on having the child.She had no trouble raising the child, but she unexpectedly met Eugene again who pestered her and threatened her using the child. He insisted that she got back together with him.She did not sign a contract with his company, but he took her contract away from Simon's entertainment company.Together with his repeated threats using the child, she was forced to comply with his wishes and stay with him. However, she had always rejected him
He turned off the computer, got up abruptly, and walked out with a gloomy look on his face."President Eugene, where are you going?" Wyatt hurriedly followed him."To find Fern!""But you promised Sydney that you’ll accompany her for lunch today," Wyatt reminded him.Eugene paused in his steps, but he quickly made a decision. "Tell her I have something to take care of and I'll make it up to her next time."He could not suppress the anger in his heart. What kept repeating in his head was Jeremy saying that he and Fern were together.Wyatt saw him hurriedly walking away but he was not surprised at all. Fern always came first.When Fern received the call from Eugene, her first thought was to reject the call but when she thought about what he had done, she felt it was still necessary to ask him about it in person."Where are you?" she asked."Come out, my car is right outside." The man's voice was frighteningly low.Fern frowned. He knew her whereabouts?She hung up and then walk
On the journey, no matter how much Fern protested and tossed about, Eugene acted like he did not hear a thing. He even closed his eyes as if he was asleep.Without his command, the driver naturally did not dare to stop and let her out. The car eventually drove into the villa and stopped at the parking pad.Fern saw the familiar place outside. He had brought her back to his villa!As soon as the car stopped, he opened his eyes. It turned out he had not been sleeping at all. He just did not want to deal with her.Eugene got out of the car first and looked at the woman who did not want to get out."Come down." The tone of his voice sounded quite normal now.Fern crossed her arms and did not move, not even looking at him. It was her turn to ignore him."I'll say it again, get out." There was a hint of anger in his tone.Fern simply followed his example and closed her eyes to pretend to sleep.He deserved it for bringing her here against her will. Eugene did not make another so
When he mentioned that, she immediately thought of the despicable things he had done to stop her from signing a contract with Jeremy and her temper rose."That's right, you can’t stop me anymore no matter what tricks you play!"Eugene's sharp eyes narrowed. He gritted his teeth and said coldly, "You want to sign with him that badly? What is it about him that attracts you?""At least he won't play tricks to bully me. He really cares about me and treats me well." As a friend, she thought Jeremy was pretty good.Besides, he got himself injured three times, all to save her. She owed him a lot."You think he cares about you just because he did you some small favors? You think he got hurt for your sake?" He snorted with disdain."I can tell if he’s truly being nice to me. I don't need you to tell me what to think." She struggled and said, "Get up, let go of me."A layer of icy coldness coated Eugene's dark eyes. He stared at her eyes with a strong feeling of possessiveness. "I gave yo
Eugene came out after bathing and saw that she had gotten out of bed. She was sitting on the sofa by the window and wearing the clothes he had torn up earlier.There was a slight change of emotion in his eyes. He walked straight toward her with his long legs."Go take a shower and change out of your clothes. There are clothes for you in the closet," he said to her.Fern only looked out of the window and did not even glance at him. It was as though she did not hear his words.The man frowned, leaned down, and pinched her chin with his long fingers. "Don't give me that sour face. From today onward, you’ll stay at home like a good girl. Don't think about signing a contract with anyone else, and don't think about filming for the time being."Was he trying to restrict her freedom?Fern stared at him with cold fury and spat out only four words, "Over my dead body." She slapped his hand away.Eugene stood up straight. He only had a bath towel around his waist. There were still water dr
Eugene's footsteps halted, and he looked behind with a disdainful smile. "With these people of yours? Heh, I advise you to call more people over." Eugene wondered if Jeremy was underestimating his bodyguards. Jeremy tensed his face, but he did not feel embarrassed. "You restricting her freedom is against the law. If you don’t release her, I’ll call the police," he coldly warned. Eugene shrugged his shoulders without a care in the world. "Do as you wish." Even if the police were called, they could not interfere in this matter.Jeremy did not expect him to be so brazen. The people he had brought obviously could not put up a fight against Eugene's bodyguards.It was no mean feat, trying to take Fern away from Eugene."I'm calling the police!" Jeremy pulled out his phone and warned. The second he pressed a number, several uniformed police officers appeared from outside."We received a report that someone was raped," the officer said.Eugene’s eyes sank. Was it Fern who reported
Fern kept the evidence of Eugene forcing himself on her and waited until the doctor finished her physical examination before she was willing to take a shower and change her clothes.Jeremy sent her back to her home. This time, Fern took a shower in the bathroom attached to her room.Jeremy went to the study. What happened today had left him shocked. He still could not believe that Fern testified that Eugene raped her!After all, it was very difficult for women to talk about this sort of thing, not to mention reporting it to the police themselves.At this moment, he had a new understanding of Fern. She was too special—no wonder Eugene refused to give up on her. Perhaps it was true that he had approached her before and treated her well only to use her to deal with Eugene, but now, he would genuinely like to befriend her.However, even if he had changed his opinion of Fern, it still did not change his desire to seek revenge on Eugene.This moment was his best opportunity!He to
