“I’ve asked you before, what would you do if I became pregnant with your child? And you told me that you’d have me go for an abortion. Since you hate children so much, why are you pretending to be kind to my daughter right now?“Plus, since you’ve opted to stay out of my life, why have you not disappeared completely? Why did you reappear to criticize my parenting so willy-nilly? This kind of behavior from you is really disgusting!”Eugene could feel his body becoming tense. The moment she called him disgusting, he could genuinely see the hatred and disgust in her eyes. He knew she wished that he would disappear immediately.Perhaps she recalled the bitterness and past resentments, so her eyes abruptly turned red. She finally found something that she loved doing, but he just had to jump out and ruin it for her!How did she come to meet such a heartless man?When Eugene saw her reddened eyes and even the tears that were flickering inside them, he felt a violent twist in his heart!
Sharon had not visited her mother for several days now. However, she had some free time today, so she brought some fresh flowers and delicious treats to see her.“Come here, stupid little dog. I’ve brought some treats for you.” Sharon shared some of the snacks she had brought with the little dog.The little dog had started to recognize her and wagged its tail as soon as she arrived. Now that she was giving it food, the dog was even happier and stuck its tongue out to lick her hands.Sharon could not stand the dog being all lovey-dovey and rubbed its head, saying, “Stay here and eat your share.”After feeding the dog, she went into the house holding the flowers and saw her mother busying herself with making perfume.“I’ve come to visit you, Mom,” said Sharon as she walked over to her.“Don’t come over, and don’t disturb me.” However, Autumn was focused on her work.Sharon had no other option but to stand in place and watch Autumn as she made her perfume. Just then, her mother too
Sharon’s thoughts were in shambles. Who was her real birth father?When the Newton household did a paternity test on her, the result showed that she was indeed related to the Newtons. However, she had no idea who that Old Man Newton had used to compare her DNA with.If he had compared her DNA with her mother’s DNA, there was no doubt that she was her daughter. Plus, she was undoubtedly Eugene’s sibling as well…Only by doing the test with Caleb would she truly know if they were father and daughter. However, he had passed long ago, so doing the test with him was not possible.Hence, she concluded that Old Man Newton must have tested her with Autumn’s DNA.Sharon was in a trance when she left Bamboo Garden. She went back to the apartment’s laboratory. When she left the place, she had told her mother to stop saying these matters aloud and wondered if her mother would remember her reminder.She was suddenly worried and anxious. If her father was indeed not Caleb and if Old Man Newton
After receiving news from Gladys on the phone, Simon immediately drove Sharon to the laboratory.“Take a look, Sienna.” Gladys handed her the phone.Once Sharon took the phone, she could see a perfume advertisement playing on the screen.“What… What’s going on here?” The perfume being advertised was her perfume, Appreshar. The very one that she was about to launch into the market!Moreover, this perfume was also named Appreshar, and even the packaging design was exactly the same.The perfume’s main formula was shown in the advertisement as well, and it was Appreshar’s formula that she had painstakingly tried to crack!“Sienna, our perfume’s formula has been leaked, and the other party has completely copied our packaging design. They’re one step ahead of us and have launched their product into the market. If… we continue with our plans to release our perfume, I’m afraid we’ll be accused of plagiarism,” said Gladys with a worried look on her face. “Damn it! How did my formula get
Sharon’s expression was becoming distorted. “Since they plagiarized my formula, the smell is naturally the same as well.”“Who on earth is this despicable?! Who’d copy someone else’s product to such an extent?!” Gladys could not help but curse aloud as well.“I’d like to find out who it is too.” Sharon stared at the bottle of perfume in her hand, seemingly filled with thoughts.“Why don’t we call the police, Sienna?” Gladys scoffed angrily.Sharon narrowed her eyes, saying, “We do have to file a police report, but not now. We’ll wait until I find out who the mole is beforehand.”Upon hearing this, something flashed across Gladys’ eyes and she hesitated for a moment before asking, “Sienna, how… do you plan on catching this mole?”Sharon turned her eyes to look at her. Gladys could feel her heartstrings tightening up, but there were zero changes in her expression.“I can’t think of a good way for the time being,” said Sharon indifferently.Gladys secretly breathed a sigh of relie
Eugene went to help with transporting the flowers while Sharon busily prepared to come up with a new perfume formula. Meanwhile, Simon was looking into the company that stole her formula to find out who the boss was. Everyone in the laboratory was overly cautious and solemn while doing their own things.Since they knew that Sharon was investigating the mole, everyone was afraid of being implicated.“You’ve been working for so long, Sienna. Have a glass of water.” Gladys poured some water for her and handed it over.“Thank you,” said Sharon as she took the glass and had a sip. She still had her complete focus on the work before her.Gladys tried to probe, asking, “Sienna, you said that you want to catch the mole, right? Do you have any idea on how to do it just yet? Why don’t you tell me your plan and let me help you out?”Upon hearing this, Sharon stopped what she was doing and looked up at her assistant. Perhaps her eyes appeared sharp at the moment, so Gladys could feel her
Sharon could feel herself getting light-headed, and her whole body was about to fall to the ground. Fern quickly reached out her hands to support her.“Careful!”“Sienna!” Gladys hurriedly helped support her as well.Sharon’s breathing was growing anxious as she gripped Gladys’ hand. Finally, she asked her in a deep voice, “Who told you this? Who told you he got into an accident?”“I… I just received a call from the police. They called the lab and told me to notify you.” Gladys could see how pale Sharon’s complexion had gotten and dared not say anything more.Sharon got up and weakly sat on her chair. She was entirely in a trance. If it were a call from the police, that would mean Eugene had genuinely gotten into a car accident…N-No! This was not possible!She abruptly got up and dashed toward the door, quickening her pace. She had to go and look for Eugene!When she reached the entrance, she rammed into someone and the man’s big hands immediately caught her in time. “Where
Sharon looked behind the rescuers and could not seem to see Eugene’s figure being lifted up.She grabbed the rescuer who was at the front and asked, “Hello, sir. Where’s my brother? Did you manage to find him?”The rescuer looked solemn and shook his head while saying, “There was no one inside the car. We searched the parameters and didn’t find anyone. So the preliminary judgment is that… he might have gotten thrown out of the car and rolled further down the cliff.”Further down the cliff…Sharon had also seen it when she first came. The cliff seemed almost like a bottomless pit. If he had fallen further down… would Eugene even have any chances of survival?She was in a daze at the moment. Meanwhile, Fern, who was standing next to her, could feel her legs going soft. She immediately fell to the ground.“Fern…” Sharon turned her head to look and saw that Fern’s complexion had turned pale. She was even trembling violently. This news must be such a massive blow to her.“No… He’ll b
“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
