Bam! There was a sound of the car door closing and opening behind Simon. Then, the woman’s figure came running toward them.When Sharon saw Eugene aiming the gun at Simon in the car, she could feel her heart jumping to her throat.If her son had not been pulling at her, she would have come over long ago.“Brother…” Sharon called out. At this moment, she was terrified of him shooting Simon, yet she deliberately twisted her words and said, “This b*stard kidnapped me, so make sure to get payback for me!”Sebastian had gotten out of the car to chase after her, and he was utterly shocked upon hearing her words. He quickly grabbed onto her hand while yelling, “Mommy, you can’t be so mean to Daddy!”She looked down at her son, feeling hesitant and conflicted. She could not allow herself to go with them! No way!She toughened herself up and pushed her son away with force. Then, she deliberately scowled at him fiercely. “I told you I’m not your mother! Get lost!”Perhaps she had exerted
Eugene sent Sharon over to the research lab and left. Unfortunately, the trouble that happened back at the mall had caused a bit of a stir, so he needed to head to the media companies of the respective reporters who had taken photos of the incident and try to control the situation.When Sharon came back, Ceylon noticed that her eyes were still a little red and swollen. He hesitatingly asked, “So the kid is yours?”He was naturally present during the perfume introductory event and saw the scene of the boy running onto the stage, calling her ‘Mommy’.Sharon looked at him upon hearing his question. She knew that he was only caring about her and not trying to gossip like the others.It was just that she was not in the mood to discuss this matter further.“No. He got the wrong person.”As her mentor, Ceylon could still somewhat read her thoughts. At the very least, he understood that she did not want to talk about it.“Ah, so he got it wrong. That just means you look a lot like the c
Xena was slightly startled. She had just arrived and he was already trying to chase her out. Naturally, there was a slight discomfort in her heart, but she still tried to behave sensibly.“Rest assured, I’m only here to take care of you and Sebastian. I know that you’ve been looking for Sharon this whole time, and I’ve also been hoping that she’ll come back as soon as possible. Plus, Sebastian needs his mother.”Simon narrowed his eyes at her for a few seconds and said coldly, “Since you’re on the same page… that’s good.”The father and son proceeded to sit down on the other end of the sofa and ignored her.Xena’s lips were still curled up into a smile, making her look innocent and harmless. She looked as if she was genuinely wholeheartedly thinking about what was best for them.It was just that anger arose when she lowered her eyes, and she secretly clenched her hands into tight fists. She had gotten fed up with Simon always ignoring her. How could she tolerate him chasing afte
At this moment, Glady’s body was blocking Sebastian, so Sharon could only see her when she came out. She had no idea who Glady was talking to.As Sharon was walking over, Glady just happened to turn around. That was when she noticed her son who had appeared out of nowhere again.She halted her footsteps and looked at the kid in shock. How did he find her here?Before Sharon could recover from her shock, Sebastian ran toward her and hugged her thigh. “You’re finally willing to see me, Mommy!”“Why…” She looked down at her son who was tightly hugging her thigh and felt somewhat confused. Could it be that Simon had sent him here?She wanted to pull him off, but the little guy was exerting all his force to hold her. It was as if he was afraid of her running away or leaving him again.Sharon helplessly covered her face and said, “Can you let go of me first?”“No, I will not. If I let go of you, you won’t want me anymore. Boo-hoo… I’m so pitiful. I didn’t have a daddy in the past; now
“Seems like? What do you mean?” The man’s expression sank.Xena immediately told him about Sebastian’s disappearance.“I’ve asked the security in the mall to keep an eye out for him too. We’re looking at the surveillance footage at the moment. I’ll surely find him…”Simon did not look too anxious at the moment. After ending the call, he opened a location application on his phone.He had specifically asked someone to customize a wristband for his son. It might look like an ordinary children’s watch, but it contained powerful functions—one of them was a GPS tracker that showed his whereabouts.There was a system that connected the wristband to the application installed in his phone, so he could check the little guy’s location anytime.At this moment, he could see the system indicating that his son was in Sharon’s perfume research institute.The kid had gotten so capable now that he even knew where to look for his mother!He immediately got into the car and told Franky to drive to
When Sharon saw Simon’s sudden appearance, her heart subconsciously skipped a beat.On this dark evening, the tall man was walking toward them. His innately powerful aura was making the people around him breathe somewhat cautiously.Sharon suddenly felt nervous upon being stared at by his bottomless, obsidian eyes.When Sebastian saw his daddy, his little face immediately bloomed into a smile as he said, “You’re right on time, Daddy. Mommy is taking me to eat ribs for dinner. Why don’t you come along?”Sharon could feel her breathing becoming hitched and she was about to refuse when Simon spoke first, “Sure. It’s my treat.”She turned her eyes to look at him, and right at that moment, he turned his gaze toward her as well. Their eyes met, and there was a spark of electricity. It was as if she had been electrocuted, so she quickly looked away from him.Sharon had spent all her efforts trying to leave him, but now it seemed like she had no other option but to keep in contact with h
Sharon could not help but ponder, ‘Wasn’t Franky Simon’s assistant? When did he switch to this young lady?’She did not overthink it and faintly replied, “Hello.” She had no intention of shaking hands with her.An awkward look of embarrassment flashed across Xena’s face as she silently retracted her hand. Then, when she saw that they were eating ribs, she turned her head to smile at Simon. She said, “I’ve been looking for Sebastian all day and haven’t eaten anything. Can you treat me to some ribs, President Zachary?”Simon glanced at her indifferently and then looked at Sharon who was talking to Ceylon. With a frown, he finally said to Xena in a deep tone, “Sit.”Xena showed an even brighter smile and immediately sat down next to him.Sharon noticed this entire scene from the corners of her eyes. It seemed like Xena was not merely his assistant.It was impossible for a mere assistant to speak to him in that tone.“Mommy, I’d like some meat. Can you take the meat off the bone for
Simon watched as the car Sharon and his son were in slowly drove away. He placed one of his hands into his trouser pocket, and the street lights shone on him. His facial features had become even more three-dimensional like a sculpture, while his dark eyes were akin to a bottomless pool.Xena was standing behind him, looking straight at the handsome man. She could not help but voice out her curiosity, “Why didn’t Miss Jeans leave with you, President Zachary?” Instead, he allowed Sebastian to go with her?Simon retracted his gaze, turned around, and walked toward the black Bentley parked on the side of the road. When he passed by her, he spat out a somewhat indifferent sentence to her, “Don’t ask about things that are none of your business.”Xena had to shut her mouth and merely look at the view of his upright back. There was a dark flash across her eyes.It seemed like Sharon was not willing to go with him!Once the car stopped at the Newton household, Sebastian looked out and coul
“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
