In the dim study room, the grandfather and grandson stood in silent confrontation. The atmosphere became even more subdued. Even from a distance, Eugene still felt the harsh aura exuding from his grandfather. He always knew that even though his grandfather was old, his ruthlessness had not diminished in the least. He knew that this old man had once killed his brothers to take the position as the head of the Newton family. After a long while, Quinn smiled coldly. “At my age, how much blood do you think has stained my hands?” One more body count would not make a difference at all. “As long as I can clear the obstacles for you, even if my sins are grave, it doesn’t matter if I die and go to hell!” Eugene’s arms that were hanging by his sides were clenched fiercely. “Grandpa, she’s innocent!” “If she’s really innocent, you wouldn’t have stepped forward and apologized on her behalf the last time!” Quinn shouted coldly. Eugene’s words got stuck in his throat as he challenged th
“You dare utter such lies just to save her? Do you think that just because you’re the head of the Newton family now, I dare not use the family law against you?” Eugene knew that his grandfather would not believe him so easily, so he said unhurriedly, “Grandpa, I’m not lying to you. She has a token of the Newton family and I’ve also investigated her background. She was adopted after she went missing. Until now, she still doesn’t know her family history.” It was because he knew her background that he was so protective of her. Quinn remained silent and just looked at him. All of them knew the significance of the Newton family token. It was not something that could be forged by just anyone. After a while, Quinn finally relented. “Okay, I’ll spare her little life first. I want to see if she’s really my granddaughter.” … Three days had passed since the attack and Sharon had been lying in the hospital since. Until now, she still could not hear a sound and was very anxious. She
Sharon gripped the desk behind her with both hands, staring at the thin old face nervously and cautiously. If she had not seen the shadow on the ground, she would have thought she was seeing a ghost. “W-Who are you? Why did you bring me here?” Quinn narrowed his cloudy eyes and examined her sharply. This face was indeed very similar to Sienna’s mother's, especially her scared expression. It was exactly the same as his daughter-in-law's. She was Sienna Newton, his granddaughter? “Get in here!” Quinn shouted. Immediately, Sharon saw a middle-aged woman walking in with two maids. Seeing this scene, she raised her guard as a bad feeling welled up in her heart. She had not regained her hearing. She only saw the old man’s mouth moving without knowing what he said. The three women approached her. “What are you doing? Don’t come near me.” The two maids grabbed her, and the middle-aged woman started to search Sharon. Her hands groped Sharon’s body and even tried to rip off h
However, in her memory, she had never seen him before. Besides, this old man looked really scary. One more look at him would probably give her nightmares at night. “Is the jade pendant yours?” Quinn stared at her and asked abruptly. “Of course, it’s mine!” What did this old man want? Quinn stared at her for another moment before he shouted, “Dr. Warner, come in!” A doctor in a white coat carrying a medical kit walked in and greeted him respectfully, “Old Master Newton.” Old Master Newton? Sharon’s eyes widened suddenly and she stared at the old man without blinking. Could he be Eugene Newton’s grandfather? Before she could ask any questions, Quinn ordered the doctor, “Get to work.” “Yes.” Dr. Warner opened the medicine kit and took out the syringe from inside. Sharon was horrified. “What are you going to do to me?” They were not going to experiment on her, right? Were they going to use the syringe to inject her with something? Drugs? Poison? No matter what, it w
Sharon was taken outside with Quinn. Right at the entrance of the Newton household, two parties were facing each other. She saw Simon looking all cold while standing in front of a dozen bodyguards. That sight alone was already intimidating enough. However, the Newton family was not easy to deal with. Their side also had a dozen people stopping them from taking another step. When Quinn stepped out, his people backed off to make way for him. Upon seeing Sharon, Simon’s handsome face grew colder as he fixed his gaze on her. When he noticed that she was being held by the other party, his black eyes narrowed coldly. How dare they touch her?! “Old Man Newton, the grudges between our two families shouldn’t involve my fiancée, right?” Simon said this lightly, but there was already frost in his eagle-like eyes. Although the two families were business rivals, they had no direct exchanges in private. Today, Quinn Newton blatantly sent people to the hospital to abduct his woman. If h
Quinn Newton’s old face had already become so somber that it was shocking. He stared straight at his grandson, but Eugene pretended he did not see it.He walked straight to Sharon’s side. “Are you okay? Did they hurt you? If they did, I’ll break their hands right now.”Sharon’s heart shook, and she raised her head in shock. He had so casually said something that vicious. It was completely different from his usual calm and gentle self.Could it really be as Jim Newton had said? Was he actually a really terrifying person?Suddenly, she felt that all of the Newton family members were very frightening. She did not dare to get too close to Eugene anymore either.Shaking her head mechanically and taking a step back automatically, she kept her distance from him. “N-No.” Probably because she was feeling too confused, she momentarily forgot that she just had her blood drawn by a sh*tty doctor.“You’re really alright?” Eugene scanned her up and down.Sharon lowered her eyes, not wanting t
Sharon sat in Simon’s car as they left the Newton household together.She was still faintly out of it. She had been shocked yet again just now. The two of them had guns in their hands. If one of them had accidentally pulled the trigger, the consequences were unthinkable.Especially to someone like her, who had just experienced a shooting, even seeing a gun would affect her psychologically.Seeing her blanched face, Simon grasped her hand. “Still thinking about what happened earlier?”Turning to meet his black eyes, she wanted to shake her head but still nodded honestly in the end.The man’s eyes darkened. He pulled her into his arms and let her lean on his shoulder. “Sorry, I didn’t take good care of you and made you suffer a shock.”Leaning against him, she finally felt a little steadier and gripped his large hand. “This isn’t your fault. However… can you promise me one thing?”“Say it.”She raised her head to look at the man’s well-defined face. “Can you not casually wave a g
“Grandpa, you can’t send someone to harass her again!” Eugene’s tone was heavy.“Hmph, what I’m doing isn’t harassment. I’m just bringing my granddaughter home!” Quinn scoffed unpleasantly.Dr. Warner’s report on the DNA test result had already been sent over. Sharon Jeans really was the granddaughter of the Newton family who had been missing all these years!Since she was a member of the Newton family, naturally, he had to bring her back. He could not let her continue to wander in the outside world.“Grandpa, at this point, she still doesn’t know about her own identity. Not to mention the way you had sent those people to kidnap her! No matter how many people you send over this time, she’s not going to come back.”“What else does she want? She can’t possibly expect an old man like me to go get her myself?” Quinn’s face was stiff. To this day, there had not been anyone who received such honor.He paused before abruptly while squinting his old eyes to look directly at Eugene, comma
“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
