Fern was wearing a tiara that was made of pink diamonds. The centerpiece was an 8.8-carat pink diamond. Under the lights, the diamond shone so brightly that it almost blinded everyone’s eyes. After appearing on stage with a diamond tiara on her head, she instantly became the highlight of everyone’s attention. The host introduced the piece that she was wearing. The pink diamond tiara was an extremely rare piece. Therefore, its price was astronomical as well.However, everyone’s attention shifted from the diamond to Fern. “Huh? That model looks like the female celebrity, Fernie!” “She’s not a lookalike. That is her! I didn’t expect her to model here!” “I heard that she’s been banished from the entertainment industry. She must’ve resorted to being a model because she doesn’t have any movies to film.” “Tsk tsk, but she has a pretty nice figure. Men will definitely be attracted to her. It’s no wonder President Eugene couldn’t resist—” “Shh, stop talking. Eugene Newton is si
“Mr. Stewart has made a bid for 100 million dollars. Does anyone have a higher bid?” the host asked. Nobody was bidding anymore. Perhaps they had all conceded to him. Mr. Stewart sneered as he stared at Fern, who was standing on the stage. Without Eugene on her side, he wanted to see just how capable she was. He was waiting for the host to announce him as the owner of the tiara. Nevertheless, the deep voice of a man broke through the silence. “200 million dollars,” Eugene articulated slowly and clearly. Everyone let out an inward exclamation. The Newtons were seriously loaded. He made such a high bid straight away! The smile on Mr. Stewart’s face vanished as he turned around to look at Eugene. A cold glint flashed across his gaze. Damn it, did he intend to compete with him? Eugene did not bother to spare Mr. Stewart a glance. He simply looked at Fern, who was standing on the stage. Perhaps he was looking at the tiara on the crown of her head. “Eugene, the tiara is
Fern was only in charge of wearing the jewelry and doing a catwalk on the stage to show it to everyone. She had fulfilled her responsibilities by personally bringing the tiara to Eugene. How dare he ask her to put it on his date?The staff member standing by the side noticed that Fern was standing there without moving. Her actions showed that she was slightly at odds with Eugene. He told Eugene, “President Eugene, I’ll put it on your date.”“No, I want her to do it.” Eugene pointed at Fern.Fern looked straight into his eyes. That meant that he was doing this on purpose. Did he want to humiliate her in front of so many people?She sneered and said, “President Eugene, since you bought this tiara as a gift for your date, you should personally put it on her to show her just how sincere you are.”“My sincerity isn’t determined by what you say. I want your service right now.” Eugene looked straight at her. He was behaving ruthlessly right now.Fern’s pretty face stiffened as she loo
The audience beneath the stage started bidding. It seemed like this jade bracelet was a hot-selling piece as well. Fern raised her hand on stage to show the bracelet off. Why did it feel like she was being auctioned off instead?She stared at Eugene. Did he intend to purchase this item for Sydney again? She did not expect Mr. Stewart to win the bid! “Congratulations for winning the bid for this jade bracelet at a price of 50 million dollars!” Mr. Stewart got up with a smile on his face amidst the applause from the audience. “Thank you, everyone! You were the ones who let me win!” He then looked at Fern, who was standing on the stage. “You, come over and hand me the bracelet,” he said in a challenging tone. Fern had guessed that he would ask her to do something like that. She thought that she would be able to get her remuneration and leave after modeling this bracelet. She had to do this for the money. She did not say much this time around. She brought the jade bracele
Fern turned around to look at Eugene after registering his words. She did not understand what he meant. He had made things difficult for her and put her in an awkward position just now, but he was now generously paying the compensation on her behalf? Did he feel superior to her because she was having a hard time after leaving him? She felt like picking up that bank card and throwing it at him. She did not need his help! Nevertheless, Mr. Stewart was eyeing her in a hostile manner by the side. She would rather owe money to Eugene than that treacherous beast! Mr. Stewart could tell that Eugene intended to protect Fern. It was meaningless for him to continue making things difficult for her. However, he was unwilling to give in just like that. He suggested something even worse, “This 50 million dollars is for the broken bracelet. The money will be given to the brand. In fact, I’m still making a loss here. Therefore, she should pay me another 50 million dollars.” He looked a
“But I heard that you don’t have any movies or commercials to film recently. Without any income, how are you going to pay me back?” Fern glanced at him coldly. He knew about her current situation. It was no wonder that he was making things hard for her on purpose. “I… This is just temporary. I won’t be out of projects forever.” She firmly believed in this. Eugene narrowed his eyes and stared at her. He let out a mocking laugh and asked, “Where’s Jeremy Ziegler? Why isn’t he helping you out during such a critical point in time? Doesn’t he want to set up an agency with you?” Fern knew that he was mocking her. Her face stiffened as she said, “It’s none of your business.” Eugene nodded and said, “That’s right, I almost forgot about our agreement. We agreed not to contact each other ever again. However, I talked to you a lot today. You won’t complain about it in front of the old master and ask him to break my legs, will you?” His words were full of hostility! Fern glared a
Sharon could not help but be surprised to hear this from Quincy. "You're leaving? Where are you going?"The light in Quincy's eyes vanished as she lowered her eyes. "Before, I was too young and relied on my knowledge of Dayton. I thought of confronting him, thinking that I could easily take back everything from our family from him and avenge my parents. But now I understand that I was too naive."She raised her eyes to look at Sharon and continued, "I'm doing well with my marksmanship now. Next, I want to go and learn more before I have enough leverage to confront him."It was also because she had underestimated Dayton that he was able to take the Night Empire from her parents. He was certainly not a simple person.It was her fault that she grew up with him and thought he was still the same person she knew. She did not expect him to be hiding so much that she could not understand him at all, nor did she expect him to be so ruthless in his methods.Sharon thought she was right, nod
"I think you're just seeking death!""If I really know her whereabouts, no one will know where she is if you kill me," Sharon reminded him. Dayton, who was originally so angry that he could not control the urge to pull the trigger, suddenly calmed down considerably."Young Master, a car was found driving away from the manor’s side gate." His men hurriedly came to report.The first thing that came to mind was that Quincy had escaped again. "Chase after her!" He jumped into a car and went along with his man to chase after her."Hey, you're getting too excited, that's not Quincy!" Sharon shouted at him, but he simply did not listen to her.Sharon shook her head. "Fine, suit yourself."Claude was not at ease. He knew who was driving the car, so he immediately got in his car to give chase."I'll come with you to make sure Dayton won’t do anything to you." She also got into the car.Claude started the car and accelerated.After they all left, Quincy drove the car that Sharon had pr
“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
