“Don’t come here, or I’ll jump!” Sebastian stood up at this moment, completely disregarding the danger.Sharon halted her footsteps, not daring to stir him up further. “Okay, okay. I’ll not go over, but you have to come over.”“First, you have to give me your word. Only then will I go over!”“Are… Are you trying to piss off your mother?” She only refused to let him learn anything about guns because of the danger he would face in the future after learning that skill.Seeing the mother and son quarreling, Simon, who had been silent for a while, said in a deep voice, “I give you my word.”Both of them looked at him at the same time. Sebastian could not help but get excited, exclaiming, “What did you say, Daddy? Are you agreeing to let Uncle Claude teach me more about guns?”“Yeah,” said Simon as he nodded.Sharon furrowed her eyebrows as she looked at him. She was extremely bewildered. “Simon?” Why are you agreeing to it?”“Let him learn if he wants to. It’s not a big deal anyway.
“Who is it? Why aren’t you opening the door?” Riley walked over and asked Sharon.“It’s Jim,” said Sharon as she turned to look at her.There was instantly a change in Riley’s expression. “How did he know where to find me? Did you bring him here?”“I’m the last one you should doubt here. Would I ever betray you like that?” Sharon scoffed as she furrowed her brows. “Did he perhaps follow me here? But when I came over, there was no one behind me!”“No one would know the answer to that. Plus, he’s always been such a shameless person!” Riley was not at all surprised that he would go as far as to stalk someone.“What do we do now? Do you want to see him?” Sharon thought that they should be talking things out rather than avoiding each other entirely.However, she was merely a bystander and the decision was still in Riley’s hands.“I don’t want to see him. Since he came here by following you, you figure it out.”As soon as Riley said this, Jim stopped ringing the doorbell and started
“Jim Newton! Riley is my best friend, so if you do anything to her, I won’t let you off!” She had no idea what this bastard Jim was up to now.“I’m trying to talk to her, so there’s no need for her best friend to meddle in,” Jim said from the other side of the door.When Riley recovered her senses and chased after Jim, Sharon had already been pushed out of the door by him.“Aren’t you going too far, Jim Newton?! This is my house!”“I know. I just want to talk to you alone. Don’t get too stirred up now. It’s bad for the fetus.”She only found his words ironic. She took a deep breath and said, “I think you’d prefer it if the fetus were gone, right? Weren’t you planning on being the executioner who’s planning to kill your own child?!”Jim furrowed his eyebrows deeply. “Can you stop uttering such unpleasant words? I was merely doing it for your own sake. I didn’t want you to end up with a child before marriage or become a single mother.”“That just means you’re not planning to take
Once Simon agreed to let Claude teach Sebastian more about guns, the kid excitedly came over to look for Claude.Since the boss himself had given his consent, Claude was no longer hesitant as well. He began to teach Sebastian wholeheartedly.“Today’s your first lesson with guns. But before that, I’d like to make some things clear to you and you have to keep these things in mind,” said Claude.“Yes, sir!” Sebastian was even more serious about this than attending his classes at school.“You told me that you wanted to be a powerful sniper. This is not an easily achievable goal. In addition to bitterly hard practices, the other thing you have to pay attention to is to treat the gun as if it’s a part of yourself, an extension of your hand. You can hit anything if you want to, and to put it simply, you have to become one with the gun itself. Once you reach this level, you’ll be a powerful sniper as well.”Sebastian gave it a thought for a moment and said, “I got it!”“Okay, let’s begin
Just as Sharon was about to go over, she halted after seeing Claude helping her out.After the two picked up all of the fruits, they both stood up at the same time without paying much attention to each other. Then, they accidentally bumped into each other while standing up.“Ah…” Candace rubbed on her sore forehead. She scrunched up her tiny nose and looked at the other party. It seemed like she had bumped into the man’s chest instead of his forehead. However, why on earth was the man’s chest muscles rock-hard?Seeing that she was somewhat in pain, Claude quickly apologized, “I’m sorry… Are you alright?” He was slightly at a loss as well and clumsily waved his hands around, not knowing where to place them. The big man was utterly embarrassed at the moment.It was as if he had never laid a finger on a woman before.Seeing this adorable demeanor, Candace burst into a peal of laughter.“What are you laughing at?” Claude was puzzled. Had she hit herself in the head too hard?Candace
Sharon abruptly remembered something else now that her son had fallen ill and was hospitalized. She had been wanting to do the test on her son a long time ago.She was wondering if he had inherited her genes… Specifically, the madness gene she had inherited from her mother.Sharon had never managed to get the check-up done as she was afraid of the result. However, now that she and Simon had gone through so many ordeals in the past, she felt that she could face any result now.She went ahead and discussed this with the doctor privately. They took a little bit of blood from Sebastian for the examination. Yet, she did not inform her son what she was doing with it.“This test takes time, but don’t worry, I’ll notify you once the test report comes out,” the doctor said to Sharon.Sharon truly wanted to know the result, but she was still a little afraid. She merely nodded and said, “Alright. Sorry for the trouble.”Sebastian stayed in the hospital for three whole days and recuperated a
Half an hour later, Candace was looking at the serious little boy in front of her and smiling while asking, “So, do you understand everything that I’ve taught you?”“Yes, almost. There’s still a little bit left, so can you please tell me about this part?”Candace was naturally happy that he was eager to learn and explained it to him in detail.Before they knew it, the sky had turned dark. Sebastian glanced at the time on the wall and said, “I think I got it now, Miss. Thanks for the extra tutoring. I’ll call my family to pick me up, so why don’t you and I go together?”Candace would be worried if he were to stay in school alone. She wanted to see him getting picked up by his parents, so she nodded. “Sure.”“Are you really single, Miss? You don’t have a boyfriend?” Sebastian chatted with her.Candace smiled and asked, “Why? Are you still planning to set me up with someone?”“I can surely do so if you’re single.”“Why do you like playing Cupid so much? Thank you, but I don’t real
“No… There’s no need.” Claude’s expression appeared taut. He wanted to behave more naturally, but his nervousness was exposed as soon as he opened his mouth.Candace found him to be amusing and could not help but let out a laugh.“Wh-What’s the matter?” Seeing her laugh, Claude was even more nervous. He thought, ‘What did I do wrong now?’“It’s nothing. I just wanted to tell you not to be so nervous around me. It’s not like I’ll eat you up.”Her words and demeanor were always gentle and soft. Everyone had told her that she had a very sweet temper, so why on earth was he so terrified of her?Could it be that he had never been in any contact with a woman before?Even Sebastian could not stand watching this anymore. Was this genuinely the same powerful sniper whom he admired so much?He had finally created an opportunity for him, but why was he performing so poorly?Sebastian began to lament. If he were a girl, he would definitely not fall for someone like Claude!It seemed like
“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
