“Given your attitude, I’d also sue you if I were here,” Sharon said in a disgusted tone. “Stop talking nonsense. If Simon raped you, would you sue him?” Eugene sneered in distaste. Sharon raised her brow and cast a sideways glance at him. “He can get a little domineering at times, but he won’t do something so animalistic.” As a woman, she stood on Fern’s side. Eugene continued to sneer at her mockingly. “You’d better pray that he’ll never do something like that to you.”“He’ll never do that!” Sharon replied firmly. Eugene did not want to argue with her. He poured another cup of water for himself. Sharon looked at the expression on his face and asked, “Hey, do you want me to help you out?” Given his stubborn attitude, she was afraid that he would miss out on his beloved woman just like that. Eugene looked at her curiously and asked, “How will you help me?” “That’s simple. I’ll tell Fern about your situation, including the reason why you broke up with her so harshly b
“Let’s get in the car.” Simon carried his daughter with one of his arms as he wrapped his other arm around Sharon’s waist. The three of them got into the car and headed home happily. The car had not traveled far when Bonnie fell asleep in Simon’s arms. This was one of her habits. She always fell asleep once she was in the car. They stopped speaking so that they would not disrupt the baby’s sleep. They were about to arrive at the Zachary household. Just as they were about to make a turn ahead, the car came to an emergency brake. The chauffeur caught sight of a figure rushing out in front of the car! Screech! The loud sound the car made pierced their ears as the car suddenly came to a stop. Sharon and Simon, who were both seated in the backseat, were thrown forward in their seats. Luckily, they had put on their safety belts. Simon held Bonnie tightly in his arms. The baby girl was sleeping soundly in his arms. She did not get startled. However, his brows still furrowed t
Sharon brought Quincy back to the Zachary household and called the family doctor over to help her treat her wounds. Dayton had shot her in her leg. Luckily, the bullet had simply grazed her skin. It was not lodged in her flesh. However, she was still quite seriously injured. The doctor spent some time bandaging her wounds. Sharon called some servants over and asked them to help Quincy wash up and give her a fresh change of clothes. Finally, Quincy did not look as disheveled anymore. Sharon handed Bonnie to Simon. She would be accompanying Quincy. The dining table was filled with scrumptious dishes. Quincy seemed to have starved for some time. She stuffed the food into her mouth while taking large bites. She had long forgotten the etiquette and concerns that came with being the young missus of the Lane family. “Eat slowly. If it isn’t enough, I’ll ask them to cook more for you.” Sharon was afraid that she would choke on her food when she saw the way she was eating. Qui
She told Sharon about everything honestly. Sharon thought that everything she had experienced in the past had been tumultuous. However, Quincy’s experience seemed much tougher in comparison to hers.After all, Quincy even lost her parents and her home. It was her mission to take revenge for them. Sharon could not help but sigh aloud. “How do you want me to help you go against Dayton Night?” Quincy looked at her with a surprised expression on her face. She then said, “You don’t need to help me go against him. This is between me and him. I don’t want to involve anyone else in this matter.” After going through this incident, she did not want to trouble anyone else anymore.Sharon then added, “It isn’t easy to defeat Dayton Night.“I know that he’s a shameless man, and he’s a smart one at that. Besides, he’s harsh and cruel. It’s hard to defeat him. However, if the Newton and Zachary households join forces, it’s possible to defeat him.” Sharon was not exaggerating. She was confi
A battle was about to begin. The tension in the atmosphere was palpable. Nevertheless, there was not a hint of nervousness on Sharon’s face. She and Simon were both extremely calm. After all, they had experienced plenty of obstacles before. She swept her gaze across Dayton’s men, who were preparing to take action against them. She could not help but burst into laughter.Dayton had a gloomy expression on his face. “Why are you laughing?” “I’m laughing at you. You want to find her so badly, but you don’t believe anything that I say. If you continue wasting time staying here, she’ll be able to run farther away,” Sharon articulated slowly. Dayton was suspicious of her words. Had Quincy really left? Was she not here? However, he quickly refuted this thought. This must be part of Sharon’s plan. He could not trust her. He had been fooled by her twice. She had helped Quincy escape on both occasions. He finally realized that now. He had only brought her over to counsel Quin
After going into hiding twice or thrice, Dayton should discover that something was wrong. However, that would all take place a month later. She had sent Quincy to the manor owned by the Zachary household in the suburbs. It was the manor that Claude lived in. With Claude protecting her, Sharon felt much more relieved. After getting rid of Dayton, Sharon went to the manor to visit her. “Don’t worry and recover well. He won’t be able to find you for at least a month,” Sharon told her. “Thank you.” Quincy could only thank her once again. After going through so many things, she realized how precious it was that there was someone who was sincerely willing to help her out. “You don’t have to be so courteous with me.” After thinking about it for a while, Quincy said, “I won’t disturb you here for long. I’ll leave after my wounds recover.” Sharon frowned and said, “It isn’t a good idea for you to keep hiding here, but you need to think about where you’re headed before yo
Sharon’s heart lurched. She immediately got up and turned around. The underground car park was completely silent. Aside from the cars, there was no one at all.She cautiously walked toward the direction where she had seen the figure. Just now, she saw someone hiding behind the large pillar. “Who is it? Come out right now!” she shouted before approaching the pillar. Nobody responded to her and she could only hear her own echo. She did not dare to approach the pillar. She walked farther in front while keeping a distance from the pillar. She continued to walk to the other side of the pillar. She suspected that the person was hiding there, but the spot was empty. All the tension in her heart dissipated. Had she seen wrongly just now? She was the only one moving about in the entire car park. She must have seen it wrongly. Perhaps she was exhausted from taking care of Bonnie lately. Just then, her phone rang in her handbag. She had set a special ringtone for Simon, so she
“It’s not that I don’t trust you. I just don’t want you to take such a big risk for me. Besides, a lot of companies have contacted me and there are a few good companies among them. As long as I sign a contract with one of those companies, I can definitely film any movie I want.” Jeremy fixed his gaze on her. After a while, he sighed out loud. “Alright, I’ll listen to you. Perhaps this will be better for both of us.” He was extremely annoyed because Eugene did not have to go to prison. He was thinking of another way to go against him. Fern extended her arm to him. “Let’s work together again if the opportunity arises.” Jeremy smiled at her. “Don’t worry about that. We’re both in the same industry. We’ll work together sooner or later.” He then shook her hand. Actually, Fern was not being honest with him. None of the companies out there had contacted her or offered to sign a contract with her. Plenty of companies were avoiding her. Although she had proved that she had
“I’ve completed all of his final requests. That’s it.” Yvonne cast a final glance at Quincy, who was gripped with shock. She then left the room. Quincy did not say anything to make her stay. She kept staring at the box of ashes. She stared at the box of ashes silently for an extremely long period of time. Terry asked her, “Miss, do you believe that these are Dayton Night’s ashes?” She turned around to look at Terry. To be honest, she did not really believe it. “Why don’t you first look at the assets that he transferred to you and see if they’re real?” Terry suggested. “Help me settle this.” She handed the thick pile of documents to him so that he could verify them. “I’ll go now.” Terry left the office at once. Quincy stared at the box of ashes and muttered softly, “Dayton Night, what are you trying to do this time?” She was shocked when Terry told her that Dayton had really transferred all of his assets and finances to her after verifying the documents. “Does
Quincy was still deep in thought when her secretary called her through the internal phone line. Her secretary told her that a woman named Yvonne Leif was here to see her. She frowned. Yvonne Leif? After thinking about it for a while, she finally recalled. Was Yvonne Leif not the woman by Dayton’s side? Why was she looking for her now? If she did not die, then Dayton Night... Quincy’s heart lurched. She asked her secretary to bring her in at once. After a while, her secretary brought Yvonne into the office. From the moment Yvonne appeared in her office, Quincy kept staring at her. She had a shadow. She was not a ghost or a spirit… Yvonne was perfectly fine from head to toe. She did not seem injured at all. Did she manage to avoid the bombing on the island? Yvonne was wearing a pair of sunglasses and holding onto a box. She carried her handbag on her wrist. After a while, she stood opposite Quincy’s office desk.She then took off her sunglasses and met Quincy’
Dayton had a dark expression on his face as he stared at the island with a bleak gaze. He pursed his lips. He had no intention of saying anything.He did not want to leave the island. Yvonne and his men were the ones who forcefully brought him away.“I’d rather stay on the island,” he said after a while.Yvonne looked at him in shock. After a few seconds, she burst out in mocking laughter. “You’d like her to bomb you to death, right? It’d be better than dying after going through all the torment of your illness, right?”After a momentary silence, he said, “I owe it to her.”Anyway, he would not be able to live for long. He should just fulfill Quincy’s wishes and let her end his life personally.He would not have any regrets if he died by her hand.Yvonne could not help but slap herself across the face. She then scolded herself out loud, “Why am I being such a busybody?! Why do I insist on saving you when you want to die so badly?! I’m such a fool!”She really regretted her decis
Quincy cast her cold gaze in that direction. After a while, she said, “Let’s go.” Terry did not know what she was looking at just now. He only noticed the unpleasant expression on her face. He followed her and asked, “Miss, where’s that bastard, Dayton Night? Shall I capture him personally?” He did not think that she would let Dayton go. Quincy did not stop walking. “It’s fine. I know how to deal with him.” There was a hint of brutality in her cold voice. Terry was slightly stunned. He seemed to have understood something. He stopped talking to her after that. The helicopter was waiting for them outside. Quincy and Terry got into the helicopter.Below them, the island was in a huge mess. Nobody could stop her from leaving now.“Miss, shall we go back now?” Terry asked.Quincy glanced at the situation below and looked at him. There was an exceptionally calm expression on her face. “You brought plenty of explosives over, right?”Terry nodded and said, “I brought some along
“Doctor Leif, come over and take a look at Young Master. He vomited blood again,” one of Dayton’s men told her as soon as they saw her. Yvonne walked in front of Dayton. She saw the blood that he had spat out on the floor. She was no longer fazed. “You guys should learn to get used to something like this. After all, it’ll happen frequently in the future.” Dayton’s men were stunned. What did that mean? Young Master would frequently vomit blood in the future? Dayton leaned against the sofa behind him and closed his eyes. He did not have the energy to speak anymore. Yvonne did not want to chastise him after seeing his current condition. She clearly knew that he had given up on himself a long time ago. He was simply waiting for his own death. Therefore, she was not in a hurry to carry out acupuncture treatment on him. Rumble, rumble, rumble... A loud sound rang out from outside. Dayton opened his eyes immediately. It sounded like an airplane had flown over? He immedia
Quincy was so angry that her face flushed red. If she was not being held down by his bodyguards, she would definitely strangle him to death right now!Yvonne, who was watching them by the side, could not bring herself to continue watching them anymore. She felt extremely awkward as an outsider. Therefore, she got up and said, “You guys should eat slowly.” She left the room after speaking.She truly could not comprehend someone like Dayton Night. Why was he being so persistent with Quincy Lane? To make it sound better, he was a persistent man. However, he must be a nightmare to Quincy. She could tell how much Quincy hated him. Otherwise, she would not have taken Lennon hostage. She wanted to leave this island. Perhaps love was not only about giving. Some types of love were defined by shackles and imprisonment as well. Not only was Dayton trapping Quincy, but he was also doing so to himself. However, perhaps this was his final wish in life. That was the reason why he was
Yvonne stared at him. She was suddenly at a loss for words. Quincy was pushed back into her room. The door of her room was then shut tight. She heard the sound of a lock clicking into place outside. Damn it, Dayton Night. He got his men to lock her up. She had completely lost her freedom. Quincy had no more ideas. She could only fast. She would rather die than be imprisoned by him. She started fasting. Dayton’s men reported this situation to him immediately. He wanted to head over to take a look at her, but he really did not have any energy right now. “Bring her over.” He had no choice but to ask them to bring Quincy to his room. Before Quincy arrived, he asked Yvonne to help him to the sofa so that he could sit down. He could not let Quincy see him lying on the bed so sickly. Yvonne could not help but ask, “Why do you have to do this? You’re trying so hard to put up a facade in front of her. Can’t you just tell her about your illness right away?” “I don’t need
Quincy could not help but feel shocked after seeing Dayton’s appearance. He looked at her with a gaze that made it seem like he was about to eat her alive! “You’re on the island?” she asked him. Why did his men trick her? “Are you trying to take my men hostage to escape since you thought that I wasn’t here?” Dayton was filled with rage. “Dayton Night, what gives you the right to trap me here?” She should be the one angry at him instead. Just then, Yvonne chased after him. “You should go back.” She reminded Dayton after walking to his side. However, Dayton’s mind was only filled with thoughts about Quincy. It was as if he had not heard what Yvonne said. A mocking glint rose in Quincy’s gaze when she saw that Yvonne was on the island as well. It was no wonder his men were unwilling to tell her that he was already on the island. He had brought another woman over. It was impossible for her not to recognize this woman. She was the woman he had fooled around with at hi
Just then, Lennon detected the mocking tone in her voice. She was not at all concerned about whether they were tired or not.He lowered his head and peeled the apple intently. He did not intend to continue speaking to her anymore. “Let me peel it on my own. Your hands aren’t clean.” Quincy naturally reached out for the knife. Lennon did not think much about it. He just felt slightly terrified. He handed her the knife and apple at once. Nevertheless, Quincy simply took the fruit knife away. She did not take the apple from him. While he was wondering if she thought his hands were dirty, she took hold of the fruit knife and approached him. She immediately placed the knife against his neck. “Young Madam, you…” Lennon finally realized what was going on. This was her true purpose. Quincy stared at him coldly and shouted coldly, “Walk!” Lennon had no choice but to comply with her and walk outside. The men standing by the door were shocked when they saw her holding a kni
