Sharon’s legs gave out below her before she felt the pain. She lost her balance, leaned to the side, and fell down.“Miss Sharon!” Franky appeared right then. He helped her up before she fell to the ground.He frowned when he saw the bloody wound in her chest. “You got shot!”The assassins were opposite them in the corridor. They did not intend to let her go just like that. They pointed their guns at them once again!Franky did not come empty-handed. There were a dozen bodyguards behind him. They all wielded guns.He pointed his gun at the assassins opposite them and fired it a few times. His shots were extremely precise. He shot one of the assassins with every shot he fired.After stopping their attack, he immediately carried Sharon in his arms and ran to the corner of the corridor so that the other bodyguards could take care of the assassins opposite them.“Miss Sharon, hang in there. I’ll take you to a doctor immediately!” Franky said in a low voice. Sharon gripped his arms
Henry frowned when she blocked his way. An unhappy glint flashed across his eyes. “You don’t have to ask me such a detailed question.” He could not allow anyone from Chester Manor to know about Franky and Sharon’s whereabouts right now. Even Tammy was not allowed to know.Tammy confirmed her own assumptions. “In that case, I should come along with you. After all, my father and Trevor are both looking for him. If I’m there with you, they won’t do anything to him.”Henry finally raised his head to look at her. His voice was characteristically cold. “You’d better not appear. Just pretend like you don’t know anything.” After speaking, he wheeled himself around to avoid her.“Henry!” Tammy shouted out at him. She finally could not resist asking him, “Other than meeting Franky, are you going to meet Sienna Newton as well?”Henry had lost his patience. He was afraid that Sharon would not make it!“If you have anything to say, tell me after I get back,” he said instead of replying to he
Sharon wondered if it was because she missed Simon too much. After a burst of crazy talk, she abruptly regained her consciousness!She opened her eyes, her lips still muttering, “Simon… Don’t go…”When Sharon woke up, she found that the person beside her hospital bed was Henry. She was currently tightly holding his hand, seemingly having regarded him as Simon when she lost consciousness.She was about to move but found that her chest hurt terribly. She then recalled that she had been shot and Franky was the one who rescued her.This must mean that she survived the ordeal, right?Seeing that she was awake, the man’s protruding Adam’s apple unconsciously slid down. Emotions were surging in his chest, and he seemed to have lost his words for a while.Instead, she was the one who spoke first, “Mr. Henry? Why… Why are you here?”At this moment, he was still Mr. Henry in her eyes.Henry pursed his lips and stared at her for a while. His voice sounded a little hoarse when he said, “I…
“You have to save her!” Henry said with a heavy tone.“We’ll do our best.”“Let’s go, President Zachary. We can’t disturb the doctor.” Franky went over to push him away.Henry’s gaze was fixed on Sharon’s pale face until the door closed, completely blocking his line of sight.His facial features were covered with coldness. Dang it! He would never let Gerald Chester get away with this!“Get in contact with Summer and tell her to see me as quickly as possible!” He abruptly gave Franky an order.Franky wondered why he suddenly wanted to see Summer. Could it be that he was trying to join forces with the Gabriel family to deal with the Chesters?He did not dare to ask anymore and quickly got into contact with Summer.Henry stayed in the hospital to keep watch over Sharon, up until the doctor told him that her life was no longer in danger. However, the doctor also said that she would not wake up so soon.It was already a day later by the time Summer arrived at the hospital to see hi
Just as Henry stepped foot into the detached manor, which Tammy had arranged for him in Chester Manor, he saw her eagerly walking toward him.However, when she arrived before him, she concealed the anxiety in her eyes once more. She deliberately tried to show him the demeanor that was apt for the young lady of Chester Manor. She slightly lifted her chin and said with a stern face, “So, you know your way back after all.”Henry looked up at her and did not take her current displeasure seriously. He merely said dimly, “Since you’re here, how could I not?”It sounded like he said that sentence to make her happy. However, in truth, he only said it out of the kindness he owed her.Even if he bore enmity with the Chester family, he and Tammy were still on relatively friendly terms with one another.It did not matter to her whether his words were genuine; Tammy still felt better after hearing them.She tried restraining her expression, and even her tone softened when she said, “You went
Henry stared at her for a few seconds and faintly muttered, “It’s not that.” After he said this, he quickly gulped down the juice.Upon seeing this, Tammy’s tense heartstrings abruptly loosened.15 minutes later, after Tammy accompanied him through his meal, she took the thin blanket from Jesse’s hand and placed it over Henry’s legs. Then, she pulled it up to cover his stomach.“You can take a break. Even if you can’t fall asleep, just close your eyes for a while and rest your mind.” She had a smile on her lips as she spoke. There was nothing peculiar about her current behavior.Strangely enough, Henry started feeling somewhat tired after his meal.He did not say much about it and merely closed his eyes.Tammy was beside him, quietly looking at him as he dozed off. After a while, she whispered to him, “Henry? Are you asleep now?”“Henry?” She called out to him a couple of times, yet he was not responding. It seemed like he had indeed fallen into a deep slumber.It was just that
Summer was somewhat surprised that Tammy would so bluntly ask her to hand over the people in the car.“Why did you bring so many people over to intercept us, Tammy? Don’t you already know that Henry was the one who asked me to bring them out of here?”Summer initially thought that the people who were chasing after Sharon and Franky were Gerald and Trevor.There was a cold flash in Tammy’s eyes. It turned out Henry was the one who had planned this after all. However, he did not do all of this to protect Franky alone, right?“Sienna Newton has shot and wounded Trevor. In any case, he’s still my little brother and the heir to Chester Manor. Even so, she was ruthless enough to castrate him! Tell me how can I forgive her so easily?”She paused before continuing, “As for Franky, the Chesters can’t easily let him off the hook as well since he’s an accomplice.”As the car’s window was lowered, all of Tammy’s words managed to reach Sharon’s ears as well.She had never expected Tammy to b
“Don’t get out of the car!” Summer shouted at the vehicle. Sharon was recovering from a gunshot wound, and it restricted her mobility. Moreover, she was pretty frail at the moment. Even so, Sharon still refused to make things difficult for Summer.“Please help me get down from the car,” Sharon said to Franky as she wanted to confront Tammy.Franky refused, saying, “I’ll head down. Stay here and don’t move. I’ll take care of it.” Before she could say anything, he opened the car door and went straight out.“Franky…” Sharon looked at him worriedly.“Miss Sharon, I’ve promised President Zachary that I’ll protect you. If I fail to do so, I’d lose my dignity to live anyway,” he said in a deep tone and proceeded to close the car door.“No, wait… Come back…” Sharon started to feel frightened. She thought of the bodyguard who was shot to death by the Chester family’s assassins to protect her. She refused to let Franky die because of her!It was just that Franky no longer turned back aro
“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
