As Sharon was trying to think of what she should do next, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open. A childish yet joyful voice of a little kid was heard, "Mommy… I won against grandpa again!"Sebastian ran into the room, delighted, and when he saw his parents hugging each other on the sofa, he suddenly came to a halt. His eyes widened as he looked at them and, a moment later, he shrieked and covered his eyes.Sharon did not expect her son to suddenly barge into the room and see them in such a state. Even though it was not an intimate gesture, it still made her feel embarrassed.She quickly pushed Simon away and got down from his arms. She went over to her son and said in a concerned tone, "What's wrong with you? Why did you close your eyes?""My eyes hurt." The little kid was still covering his eyes with his hands.Sharon became anxious. "Pain? Weren’t you alright just a moment ago? Why does it suddenly hurt? Let me have a look."She prised the little kid's hands away and e
Sharon frowned deeply and looked at the emergency room beside them, its door closed. Right then, the little kid was receiving treatment from a doctor inside and they could only wait outside.Sharon was worried and, at the same time, suppressing her anger. 'Sally, you did this on purpose, didn’t you?'Footsteps came toward them. Sharon spun around and saw it was none other than Sally. Her expression immediately darkened. 'How dare she show her face?'Sally put on a worried facade for the outsiders and said, "Butler, is Sebastian's injury very bad?"The butler explained, "The doctor is attending to him. For now, we can’t be sure of anything yet."Sally glanced at Sharon whose expression was eerily dark. A cold smile visible within her eyes, Sally pretended to sound guilty when she spoke, "It's my fault, aunt. I wasn't looking after the child when it happened. He was being naughty and spilled the water on the table."She paused for a moment, then sighed theatrically as if she was up
"Were you even heartbroken? Isn’t that child just one of your chess pieces? You're cruel enough to kill him, so what right do you have to talk to me about sorrow? That wasn’t Howard's child. That's why you were able to be so heartless to that child, am I right?" Sharon could not control her anger which was out of control and shot back at Sally.The smile on Sally's face vanished. She let out an evil smirk and said, "So what? Since no one can prove that the child is not his, don't you even think about using this matter to scare me! Even if that person is Simon… it's impossible!"When Sharon heard that, a thought flashed in her mind suddenly, and she abruptly understood something. Her sharp eyes were locked onto Sally as she said hesitantly, "You… it's you who intervened with the parental DNA test report?"She had been flabbergasted when Simon let her take a look at the parental DNA test. She could not comprehend the reason behind it. 'It was obvious that the child doesn't belong to H
Howard fell silent for a few seconds before saying, “Okay.” Sharon entered the ward anxiously and saw her son lying on the hospital bed. His burned hands had been bandaged and she could not tell how severe his injuries were. “Doctor, he…” As soon as Sharon opened her mouth, the doctor instantly said, “The child's injuries are serious. If he arrived at the hospital any later, he will most likely have lost his hands.” Sharon did not expect the injuries to be that serious that she almost lost her balance, her body swaying slightly. Simon stretched out his arms to support her. Only a mother could understand how her heart ached at the moment! She could not help glaring at Sally, her eyes boiling with anger. The doctor continued, “Now that the wound has been treated, he should stay in the hospital for observation. As long as we monitor him carefully, the injury will heal properly.” “Thank you, doctor.” Sharon grabbed Simon’s arm tightly. She felt really weak right now. After
Seeing her son’s face full of tears, Sharon resisted the urge to wipe them off for him. Douglas loved this grandson of his so much; perhaps he was the only person who could punish Sally at this time. Sure enough, when Douglas heard Sebastian’s words, he frowned deeply, his aged but majestic eyes turning to Sally, and his voice as deep as an ancient bell as he growled, “Did you hurt Sebastian?” Douglas had been feeling unwell today so he rested in the room without playing with Sebastian. If the butler had not told him that his grandson had suffered burns, he would not have found out about this. Sally felt extremely flustered under Douglas’s intense gaze. At this point, what else could she do? She gritted her teeth, met Douglas’ probing gaze, and put on a very aggrieved appearance. “Grandpa, I didn’t. I just lost a child. I feel nothing but affection for any child I see now. How could I hurt Sebastian?” Howard felt suffocated. Everyone was blatantly bullying his wife one after
“Don't worry. With grandpa around, I will make sure you get your justice.” Douglas patted Sebastian on the shoulder. Simon dialed the number. Sally could not stop herself from trembling. The blood drained from her face, making her complexion deathly pale. She felt scared and flustered. She had made sure to check at that time. There was no surveillance in the living room. She hurt Sebastian so boldly, but she did not expect… Howard could sense her fear and doubts began to emerge in his heart. Could she really have done it? Several thoughts flashed in his mind before he made a decision. Whether she truly did it or not, he had to protect her. If she got into serious trouble, he would be dragged into it anyway. “Sally, why do you look so bad? Are you feeling sick again? Why don’t I take you home to rest first?” Howard wanted to take her away. Douglas immediately barked, “Stop! No one leaves until things are made clear!” “Grandpa, Sally hasn't recovered yet.” Howard persisted
“Enough! Even now you still deny it. It seems that I was too kind to you when I allowed you to stay at home to recuperate, but you hurt my grandson instead. He’s just a child. How could you do this to him? You are truly the most vicious woman!” Douglas loved Sebastian very much. Seeing him being burned, his anger was uncontrollable. “I think Sharon can’t be fully blamed for your fall down the stairs. You have a problem too. Pack your bags immediately and move out of the house!” Douglas issued the expulsion order without any hesitation. Sally’s mind went blank for a moment, her pupils contracted suddenly, and she quickly recovered, “No, grandpa, I was wrong. I admit my mistake. I shouldn't have hurt Sebastian on impulse,” she cried bitterly and pleaded. With a cold face, Douglas said to the butler who had just brought the doctor, “Notify the household to pack her things and throw it out the door!” “Grandpa!” Howard finally could not take it any longer. “And you, you take her a
Sharon was startled and nodded immediately. Yes, he was also responsible. No matter how busy he was, if the child fell sick, he could not ignore it. She picked up a towel to wipe the sweat off her son, always paying attention to his body temperature. Sebastian woke up at this time. He opened his eyes and saw that both father and mother were there, and he felt very relieved. “Sebastian, how do you feel? Is there anywhere uncomfortable?” Sharon was still not at ease. Sebastian nodded. “Yeah, it’s a bit uncomfortable.” “Does your hand hurt?” “I can bear the pain, but… my tummy is growling and I can’t bear it.” Sharon’s anxiety eased instantly after hearing this. The little guy turned out to be hungry. “I’ve asked the chef at home to prepare porridge for you. You can only eat a little for now. When your injuries are healed and you no longer having a fever, he will prepare a good meal for you to make up for it, okay?” Sebastian pouted. He wanted to eat meat now, all kinds
“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
