Louis froze at the question. At that moment, the memory of him meeting Victoria for the first time began to surface.As he recalled the memory, his gaze became gentle.A short while later, he brought himself back to the present and away from the memory. He looked at Victoria as she was talking to Megan. "She acted quite similarly to how she's acting now. Did something happen to you? There's something about her that seems off."Benjamin looked at Louis. Although his lips moved, he remained silent.Louis looked back at Benjamin. "Protect and look after yourself. Don't let her become the person she used to be."…Meanwhile, Megan was busy questioning Victoria about Louis."Victoria, have you known Louis since a long time ago? What do you think of him?"Victoria glanced at Yves. "That's right. We've known each other for many years now. You're asking me what type of person he is? Well, he's a talented and capable man." She continued, "If not for that, you would not have fallen f
Colette was hiding in the hut Cole found.After waiting for a long time, she finally received a phone call from Yvette."Where are you? Send your location. I'll pick you up immediately," said Yvette.She informed Colette and continued, "I've already had someone draft the share transfer agreement. All you need to do is sign it. Once the contract takes effect, I'll immediately transfer the money to you."While she was on the phone, Yvette calmly took control of the situation.Colette replied, "Cash. Twenty million in cash and transfer the remaining. I'll tell you the location. We'll meet there!" She felt restless and impatient, and despair was apparent in her voice. She did not believe that Yvette would give her fifty million dollars. She was also worried that her bank account could be frozen at any given moment. But ultimately, her body, and especially her face, needed the money.The infection on her face had not been handled on time and was starting to fester. On top of that,
Although Yvette and Colette were seated at the back, they did not pay much attention to the drive.However, upon hearing the driver's words, they turned back to look. There were indeed two police cars behind them.Yvette looked tense as she turned back around to look at the driver and asked, "How long have they been chasing us? Are you sure that they're following us?"The driver replied, "It's already been five or six minutes. They've been constantly following us. I even made way for them, but they did not overtake me."Colette currently feared the police the most, and she panicked immediately. She pulled Yvette's arm and shook it, asking, "What should we do? Yvette, what should we do now? Are the police here to arrest me? I don't want to go to jail!"Yvette's expression was extremely upset. She shook off her hand and ordered, "Don't panic, don't panic yet!"She calmed down for a moment and then pointed at Colette. "Colette, are you constantly being followed?"Colette's voice
Ginny was holding a tablet in her hand.In the video, Colette walked up to Paul after she had entered the car. He opened an eye and looked like he was about to say something.Colette was startled by this. She covered his mouth with her hand. She was holding a fruit knife in the other hand and viciously stabbed his injury. She then twisted the knife in his wound.Her slightly messy hair hung loose under the dim light. Her expression was fierce and malicious. She looked as if she was possessed by an evil spirit. It sent shivers down the spines of those who watched her."Impossible, this, this … is impossible," stuttered Ginny.Ginny could not accept what she saw and repeatedly shook her head.She looked at Victoria who was beside her bed. Ginny's entire body trembled. "Lettie wouldn't kill anybody. He's her biological father. She is a very good child. Was it you who did this?" she questioned.Her eyes were bloodshot and teary, yet they were also dull and unwavering. She sa
Ginny rushed to the door. She saw Colette looking like a cornered beast on the bed in the ward.Colette's current appearance looked too different compared to her previous appearance, so Ginny did not recognize her. "I don't want to be imprisoned for life! I don't want to be sentenced to death! I don't want to die!" screeched Colette.As she screeched, she clutched her head and stamped her feet on the bed. Suddenly, she jumped off her bed and ran toward the door.Upon seeing this, the two police officers who were standing guard in the room immediately rushed to stop her. She used all her strength to push them aside but failed.Her eyes darted around. She pulled over the arm of one of the officers and bit it hard.While he screamed in pain, she pushed him aside and ran out of the door. She then crashed into Ginny, who had stood at the door in search of her.It made the two of them fall to the floor.Ginny eyed the girl on top of her. She was still unsure. "Lettie?"Colette saw
"Ah!" yelled Colette.Colette was originally unwell, and getting shaken by Ginny made her feel even worse. She felt nauseous, especially when Ginny said 'If anyone is going to prison, it's you! I won't take the blame for you again'. As Colette felt her hope vanish, she yelled like a crazy person and angrily pushed Ginny aside."I've had enough!"She pointed at Ginny and asked mercilessly, "Why do you leave me by your side, yet refuse to acknowledge Victoria? Do you have no sense of shame?"You treated me like your biological daughter because you loved me? What a joke! It was because I was outstanding and remarkable."You wanted to look good, and the reason why you did not acknowledge Victoria was because she has a rebellious and arrogant personality. And that didn't meet your standards!" ranted Colette.She continued, "But you didn't expect her to be so outstanding. She even got involved with Mr. Harper. "Did you not want to acknowledge her? She doesn't give a fuck about you.
Ginny covered Victoria as though she were protecting a defenseless person.As she observed the scene, Colette felt as if Victoria had snatched away the last possession that rightfully belonged to her."I won't allow you to harm Victoria any longer!" Ginny said as she spread her arms, taking a protective stance in front of Victoria.Colette, now a pissed-off wild beast, glared with fiery eyes and burst into mocking laughter."Victoria, did you catch that? She's all, 'I'll keep you safe.' Pretty darn amusing, huh?" taunted Colette.Victoria pursed her lips, keeping a poker face. "Sort of," she deadpanned.Elizabeth turned her gaze to Victoria, who remained indifferent. She then sighed.Colette stopped laughing, a smirk playing on her lips. "Who's messing with Victoria? Ginny, do you really think you've got the right to spew this crap? "Remember when Victoria, who was still seven, came back to Jameson Manor on my birthday? How did you treat her? "You called her names, slapped h
After hastily tending to the wounds on her face, Colette was escorted to the police station with her mouth gagged.While inside the police station, Yvette continued to undergo questioning. After spending several hours there, her cooperative attitude had turned impatient and frustrated."I've repeated this several times. I was unaware of any travel restrictions imposed on Colette or that she killed her father," said Yvette."She expressed a desire to leave Youngville but was paranoid about her driver. So, she came begging for my help, throwing in a sweet deal on the Harper family's shares as a bonus. "I mean, come on, I'm a businesswoman. Why wouldn't I jump in? Especially now that I'm involved with Zachary, I … "I feel a constant sense of guilt when it comes to her. I'm not breaking any laws. I've been deceived," defended Yvette. She continued, "I have a reputation in Youngville, and dragging me to the police station from a highway rest stop damages it severely. "Keep me h
