“The offer is great, it’s just that… I don’t want to leave this place.”After she said that, Eugene understood. He curled his lips into a smile. “I never planned on asking you to leave.”She looked at him in confusion. He continued, “We have a branch here. You don’t have to go anywhere. You can work here.”He looked at her deeply with a smile in his eyes. “What do you think? Are you still going to reject me?”The three of them spent almost half a day in the amusement park. If Sharon had not said that it was time to leave, the little guy would still have continued playing.Eugene was responsible for sending them back to their apartment.This time, Sharon was holding her son’s hand while they bade farewell to Eugene by the side of the car.“Thank you for taking time to have fun with my son and me. I’ll treat you to a meal next time if I have the chance.” Sharon smiled and spoke to the man in front of her.Eugene placed his hands into his pockets. His suit jacket was hanging on hi
“Dad, Uncle Eugene took mommy and me to the amusement park!” Sebastian did not notice the tense atmosphere between the adults as he reported their itinerary to Simon.When Simon heard that, his gaze grew even colder. There was a slight curve on his lips and a mocking glint in his piercing eyes. “Oh? I have to thank you properly then, Eugene. You have so much free time to go to the amusement park with my wife and son.”The smile on Eugene’s face was different from earlier. If one did not look at him closely, they would not notice that there was no warmth in his smile at all. He pretended to be surprised as he said, “What? You said they’re your wife and son?”He narrowed his eyes slightly and continued, “When did you get married, President Zachary? Why haven’t I heard about it? Also… when did you have such a grown-up son?”Simon’s expressionless yet handsome face grew colder by the second. “This has nothing to do with you. I should tell you that it’s best if you don’t snoop around to
This was so funny. Why was he so mad? Did he have beef with Eugene, which he was going to redirect toward her?Simon looked at her with deep eyes. He approached her with a dangerous aura with a sinister glint in his eyes. “Sharon, did you turn a deaf ear when I was talking to you? Didn’t I tell you not to interact with Eugene? You didn’t listen to me and you even brought our son to the amusement park with him.”Sharon was forced to the door by this man. Initially, it was already not very spacious. Now, it was getting more and more cramped as the air grew thinner and thinner.She opened her mouth to explain but then she changed her mind. What was there to explain?They just went to the amusement park. It was not a shameful thing.“Right, we went to the amusement park. You didn’t have time for us, and he did, so why couldn’t we go?”“Of course you can’t! I am Sebastian’s father and your husband! Not Eugene Newton!” The man’s faintly throbbing temple revealed how angry he was right
Simon looked at the woman’s back disappear as she fled in a panic. The fire in his chest had not completely dispersed yet. He stopped suddenly because he saw the tears in the corners of her eyes, and noticed the way she looked as if she had been bullied.He did not expect himself to lose control. He did not expect to get so angry after seeing her with Eugene.Franky only dared to get into the car after seeing Sharon get out of it. He was scared when he saw the horrible expression on his boss’ face and how he looked as if he wanted to kill a man.“Get someone to watch Eugene for me.” Simon barked out an order out of nowhere. He could not let Eugene get close to her again!Inside the car, Franky, who was in the driver’s seat and was about to start the car, saw his boss’ handsome face, that was as cold as an iceberg, through the rearview window. There was also some blood on the corner of his lips.Franky could not stop himself from feeling horrified. Did the boss force himself on Sha
It was as if he had disappeared into thin air. He did not ask about the mother and son at all.A ball of rage built up in her heart. She could not help but laugh at the idea of him having the time to care about them. He might have even been on the way to have the time of his life with Rebecca.She was the only idiot who thought he would care about how she felt!After Sharon hung out with her son for two days, someone from the Zachary household came to take the little guy home. Douglass would not allow the little guy to stay too long outside.“Mommy, I’ll go back to grandpa’s place for now.” Sebastian did not want to be separated from her, but he understood he would cause a lot of trouble for his mommy if he stayed with her.Sharon squatted and held her son. “You need to eat and sleep on time when you get to your grandpa’s place, okay? Grandpa is old now, so don’t make him mad, understand?”Sebastian pressed his lips together. “I don’t like grandpa because he separates us.” Even t
Sharon finally had time to look at the man sitting next to him. He was wearing a custom-made suit and was wearing a tie with diagonal stripes. His black hair was combed back neatly, and there was a constant gentle smile spread across his face.Truly, he was not a stern boss, and was completely different from the cold and arrogant Simon.Weird, why was she thinking about him again?Simon had not appeared until now. She could not help but wonder if he was truly missing.However, if something did happen to him, Alfred would not be so calm when he came over to pick up the little guy last night.If that was the case, was he busy preparing for his wedding with Rebecca?“What are you thinking about?” The man’s gentle voice was heard next to her.Sharon came back to her senses and smiled in embarrassment. “I’m just not used to my boss picking me up for work.”“You’ll only have this kind of treatment on the first day of work. Don’t expect to get this treatment every day,” Eugene said wi
Sharon was enchanted after listening to him. She almost forgot to sing her part.After Eugene finished with his part, he lifted his hand to touch her before she came back to her senses. She looked at the screen and quickly continued the lyrics.Coincidentally, she knew this song. She even sang this song with Howard during the singing competition in school. Back then, she practiced this song repeatedly so that she could cooperate with him to get a prize.However, who knew that things remained the same, but the people had changed and now they were enemies.When she sang this song, she would remember everything that happened in the past. Her heart was conflicted and heavy. She almost could not continue singing anymore.Perhaps Eugene could see through her. He suddenly reached out to hold her shoulder. She lifted her head to look into his narrow eyes that seemed to be smiling superficially. That familiar feeling arose again and it felt as if they had known each other a very long time
Sharon felt her scalp turning numb. The two of them looked as if they were going to fight at any second. She did not want Simon to fight someone because of her again.“Do I need to make an appointment before I beat the sh*t out of you?” Simon’s eyes were filled with disdain.“Let her go.” Eugene was asking Simon to let Sharon go so that they could fight.Of course, Simon was not scared of his provocations. When he was about to let Sharon go, she held him even tighter.“Enough! Aren’t you guys worried that someone will take a video of you guys fighting here and put it on the news?” The two of them were people with fame and influence.“Shar, I’m just teaching him a lesson for you.” Eugene seemed to know that Simon did not treat her well.Simon’s pupils constricted. Shar? When did the two of them become so close?A ball of rage erupted in his heart. He clenched his fist to punch Eugene.Sharon used all of her might to hold the furious man. “Simon, calm down!”The darkness in Simo
“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
