Dayton was overly calm. He allowed Quincy to become the company’s chairwoman and he was not angry when she fired him, the president, right away! The board of directors was waiting for him to say something. However, Dayton looked at Quincy and replied to them, “Since this is the new chairwoman’s decision, I’ll accept her arrangement.” His words made the entire conference room, which had quietened down, burst out into noise once again. “I think both of them have agreed on this early on. We should accept it. Our opinions aren’t important.” “They aren’t taking us old directors seriously at all…” “Never mind, this is their company. We don’t have a say in this.” “I think that we’re the ones who should leave.” Of course, the board of directors could not accept the fact that Quincy had become the chairwoman as soon as she entered the company. She even planned to manage the company by becoming the president. Quincy was taken aback by how easily Dayton was conceding to her
“Don’t even mention our son. It’s torture for him to live with you.” She got angry at him when she thought about her son’s autistic presentations.“You can’t blame me for that. He lacked motherly love since young. Naturally, he’d be different from other children.”Quincy sneered and questioned, “In other words, you’re blaming me for how he turned out?” “Yes, you hold the main responsibility for this.” Quincy did not want to argue with him. He had always been shameless and stubborn. “Terry, come in,” she called him in. Terry pushed the door open and walked in. He took out a shotgun from his pocket and aimed it at Dayton when he saw her being trapped in his arms. “Let go of the young miss.” Dayton simply glanced at the muzzle of the gun, which was aimed at him, without paying it any mind. He showed no intentions to let go of Quincy as well. After all, he occasionally used guns as well. “Terry left with you. It’s no wonder I couldn’t find him for such a long time.”
“Young Master, are you giving up just like that? The company belongs to you,” his subordinate, Johnny, said in an indignant tone. Dayton turned his gaze away from the entrance of the company after hearing what he said. He coldly looked in the direction of the passenger seat and asked, “Since when do you have the right to talk about my affairs?” “I’m just trying to stand up for you. Young Madam just came back… How can she be so discourteous toward you?” Johnny was infuriated at the way Quincy was doing things. At the same time, he could not understand it. Young Master never conceded to anyone. He was always the one bullying others. Nobody dared to treat him this way. However, he was letting Young Madam do as she wished now… Dayton’s expression stiffened. Suddenly, he coughed. It only got more and more intense. He took out his handkerchief and covered his mouth, but he could still feel the bitter taste of blood surging from his chest to his throat. “Young Master, are you i
Yvonne was irked by his attitude. “Can you take your illness seriously? If you give up on yourself, I can’t treat you.” Regardless of how great her medical skills were, she could not treat a patient who was unwilling to listen to her instructions. Dayton continued smiling at her faintly. “Alright, I got it. I’ll listen to you.” “You say that every single time.” “I’ll really listen to you this time.” “I don’t believe in you.” She had lost her trust in him.He shrugged and asked, “What do I need to do for you to believe in me?”After pondering upon it for a while, Yvonne said, “To take care of you, I’ll move into your place so that it’ll be more convenient for me to carry out acupuncture treatment on you and monitor you while you take your medication. I’ll be living here for at least a month.” It did not look like she was joking. Dayton thought about it for a while and said, “You can move in if you want to. There are plenty of rooms in my place. You can stay for as lon
Quincy walked into the room, and Little Cupcake ran over at once. “Mommy, Sirius fell sick again. His body temperature is really high. Hurry and send him to the hospital.”There was a panicked expression on Little Cupcake’s face. She was extremely worried about Sirius. Quincy touched her daughter’s head and came to the side of Sirius’ bed. Her son’s face was flushed red. He was asleep.She reached out her hand to touch his forehead. His body temperature was frighteningly hot!“Mrs. Lindsay, prepare everything right now. I’ll send him to the hospital at once.” Quincy got anxious as well. Mrs. Lindsay took some clothes over so that Sirius could change into them. Quincy then carried him out of the house.“Mommy, I want to follow you guys to the hospital as well. I want to help you take care of Sirius.” Little Cupcake chased after her.Quincy glanced at her daughter. She did not reject her offer. “Alright.” She knew that Little Cupcake would definitely be unwilling to stay home e
“You’re up rather early today.” Yvonne walked over to him. “With you here to treat me, I’m full of energy now,” Dayton said. Yvonne walked to his side and took his hand in a habitual manner. She then felt for his pulse. After a while, she let go of his hand and said, “Your pulse is still not ideal. I need to carry out acupuncture treatment on you again today.” Dayton sighed in exasperation and said, “Just say that you seek pleasure in poking me with needles once a day.”Yvonne sat down opposite him and said, “You brought all of this upon yourself.” Just then, the butler took the phone over and said, “Young Master, Young Madam wants to talk to you.” Dayton was slightly taken aback. Quincy Lane was calling him? What did she need in the morning? He then thought of their son. Did anything happen to Sirius over there? Yvonne was about to eat breakfast when she heard what the butler said. She then turned around to look at Dayton in shock. Young Madam? Was th
When Sirius woke up in the morning, his fever had gone down. However, he was extremely weak right now. The doctor recommended that he stay at the hospital for observation purposes to prevent his illness from recurring. “Sirius, do you feel a little better now?” Little Cupcake had been immensely worried about him all this while. Sirius nodded and said, “Yes, I don’t feel uncomfortable. You don’t need to be so worried.” There was still a cool expression on his face. Nevertheless, there were people who cared about him and accompanied him when he fell sick now. His heart warmed up when he saw Little Cupcake and his mommy as soon as he opened his eyes. He looked in the direction of the door. Daddy was not here. He was still as indifferent toward him as always. Quincy noticed that his gaze was fixed in the direction of the door. She could read his mind. He was waiting for his daddy, Dayton Night, to appear. She had called Dayton in the morning today to notify him of S
Someone suddenly opened the door of the room… “Young Madam… you really can’t go in…” The butler rushed over in a hurry. However, he still could not stop Quincy from pushing the door open. “Dayton Night…” Quincy walked into the room in a storm of fury. She heard that he had not been working nowadays and was just staying at home every day. Since he was not busy with work, why was he hiding at home? Before she pushed the door open and walked into the room, she had no idea why he was so reluctant to go to the hospital to visit their son. At this moment, she saw him lying on the bed half-naked. A woman was bent down in front of him. She was just about to press her body down on him... Her mind went blank in an instant when she caught sight of this scene. She almost failed to react in time. He did not go to work or to the hospital just to do this? “It seems like I’m interrupting.” The two people in the room turned to look at her when she pushed the door to enter the ro
“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
