Yearning for Her Return Chapter 598 Making a Bet
A cold glint appeared in Maxwell's eyes. "What are you doing, Becca?"Rebecca's movements were hard to discern in the dark, but in the moonlight illuminating the stairwell, he could make out the blade against her neck.If his vision had been sharper, he might have noticed the blood on the blade. He might have realized that she wasn't merely toying with a fake knife."You can tell that I'm making a bet with my life," she said calmly and determinedly. Her action might seem outrageous, but that was the best solution she could come up with.She glanced at him and said nonchalantly, "I don't know how important I am to you, but based on what you did, I believe you don't want anything bad to happen to me. I'm doing this out of desperation. Please free my friend."Had he kept his word and freed Ellen, she wouldn't have resorted to threatening him. Despite not knowing how important she was to Maxwell, she wanted to give it a try.During the confrontation, a vague memory surfaced in her mi
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 599 A Step Too Late
When Rebecca was dragged into the shadows by Maxwell, she could clearly feel Daniel's gaze traveling in her direction.They missed each other by seconds. Had he arrived earlier, or had Maxwell left a little later, they would have run into each other.She had a strong, inexplicable conviction that, once Daniel noticed her, he would rescue her from this ominous place. Alas, he was a step too late.Meanwhile, Maxwell didn't seem to feel the pain from her consistently hard bite at all. Even when he began bleeding from the bite, he never once loosened his grip on her. Instead, he endured the pain and dragged her away.Daniel halted by the stairwell when he noticed Ellen on the ground. He crouched down to assess Ellen's condition in the dimly lit environment.Ellen bore severe bruises, and his breaths were faint but steady. His injuries were grave, yet not life-threatening.Daniel rose from the floor and ordered, "Get him to the hospital," before scrutinizing the old building that rese
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 600 Feeling Bored
At the same time, Rebecca found herself cornered on an unfamiliar floor. The echoes of distant sounds created an eerie atmosphere."Did you hear that, Becca?" Maxwell whispered as he covered her mouth.He continued, "Your so-called friends David and Ellen committed unforgivable acts against you, your family, and your friends. They nearly killed Daniel in a fire. Have you seen Daniel's face? Do you know what he used to look like? He bore a striking resemblance to your friend David. "Perhaps that's why David wanted to mar Daniel's face. Becca, did you ever think about the Johnson family's feelings when you befriended a murderer?"Maxwell's whispers sent a shiver down her spine. She had goosebumps all over her skin, but not because of what he said.She did not have the mental energy to verify his claim. At that moment, all she wanted was to escape.The ambient chatter faded. There were some untraceable sounds emanating from different directions: from across from them, from behind,
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 601 Locked
Rebecca's hands paused. She didn't even dare to look up as a cold sweat broke out on her back. She thought, "How did he come out of the kitchen so silently?"She pursed her lips and slowly sat up from the sofa. She pretended like nothing had happened. "I was a bit bored, so I thought of finding something to pass the time."Maxwell chuckled and didn't respond to her words. Rebecca wasn't sure if he believed her half-hearted explanation.He placed a plate of fresh-cut fruit on the coffee table, went to wash his hands, and then said gently, "Sorry for keeping you waiting, Becca."Bending down, he pulled the plate of neatly cut fruit toward Rebecca. "Have something to eat. The room was just cleaned today, and it hasn't been stocked with food yet. If you're hungry, make do with this for now."The fruits were seasonal produce from Fairport, and Maxwell was considerate enough to cut them into pieces and provide her with a fork.Despite her love for fruits, Rebecca wasn't in the mood to
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 602 Lost
In the dimly lit corridor of the old building, Daniel and Ryan continued their ascent from the first floor up the rusty stairs.Upon hearing a loud noise from above a while ago, they abandoned their casual chat and hurriedly followed the sound.However, after climbing just a couple of floors, the clanging noises ceased. Amid the darkened air, only the faint specks of falling rust could be perceived. It gave the building an eerie, post-apocalyptic atmosphere.Daniel circled the corridor and realized they might have inadvertently switched to another staircase in a different aisle. His expression grew somber. "Where are you taking me?"With all sounds gone except for the echoes of their footsteps on the stairs, he questioned Ryan. Feeling unfairly accused, Ryan retorted, "What do you mean by taking you? I've been following you the whole time!"He thought bitterly, "Even if I had taken the wrong route, it wasn't my fault! Who would blame his friend when he can't find his wife?"Breat
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 603 Maggots in the Gutter
Ryan was still dispelling the fear in his heart. As he heard Daniel calling him, he scanned the surroundings of the courtyard. After a moment, he tentatively suggested, "Maybe we could just follow our instincts?" Daniel was again speechless. Not bothering with Ryan anymore, Daniel took the first step. Having walked through this area upon his arrival, Daniel had some vague impressions. If needed, he could mark some landmarks or notable objects along the way to backtrack if they took the wrong path.As for Ryan, Daniel had already given up on him. He seemed unreliable. Ryan protested again. The inside of this building was intricately complex. If it weren't for that lunatic Maxwell forcing him to return and share a property with the Jenkins family last year, he would never have set foot in a place like this.Some of the Jenkins family's businesses were discreet, so the trade locations were not easily noticeable. This shabby corridor community, with its chaotic atmosphere, facilita
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 604 Useless
Seeing this, Daniel began to wonder if it was actually an accident that Rebecca lost her memories. Still, it was just a thought.Not even the greatest psychologists could say for certain that they could completely erase one's memories. When it came to hypnosis, the cooperation of the person being hypnotized to follow the hypnotist's instructions was necessary.Surgery was not a valid option either.The human brain was incredibly complex, so even if one could operate on a hippocampus, where memories were stored, results could not be guaranteed. Moreover, a small mistake could ruin the patient completely. Judging from how David treated Rebecca, he most likely wouldn't do something as crazy as that. So, Daniel chose to believe that Rebecca lost her memories after the fall into the sea damaged her nerves. He didn't want to think that someone was behind this incident, nor could he bear the thought of it actually being true. Turning his attention back to David, Daniel smirked.
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 605 Address
On the outside, it seemed like Daniel was kindly suggesting that David visit Ellen in the hospital. However, Daniel was actually blaming David for what happened to Rebecca. Not to mention, having an outsider like Ryan beat David's man on David's former turf was nothing short of an insult. Unfortunately, David was just a powerless man now. After forsaking the Winston family and focusing on growing his power in Seardale, David was practically powerless in Fairport. In the past, his arrogance and confidence only existed because he had strong support. Now that it was gone, he could no longer act so recklessly here. David probably never imagined himself being in such a sorry state. He was being silenced by a loser. And the worst part? He couldn't refute what Daniel said since it was true. Besides the fact that he was partially to blame for Rebecca's current situation, he also had to admit that he arrived later than Daniel. Still, just leaving like this would leave a bitter tas

Penny didn't have much free time over the past three years.As she had envisioned, during the first year, she honed her acting skills amidst criticism while also working as a translator.Later on, she felt that acting didn't hold much appeal anymore. Moreover, realizing that there weren't any roles left for her, she gradually gave up and moved toward working behind the scenes.She had some work during this period.It seemed that a daring reality show, not caring about potential risks, decided to capitalize on her controversial popularity and invited her to participate in one of their programs.The reason Penny agreed to participate was because the show's first season had a good reputation, and the payment offered was reasonable.Continuously doing translations could be quite tiring. After discussing with Cecilia and weighing the pros and cons, she eventually signed up for this TV show.Unfortunately, she had underestimated the darker side of human nature.The show's production

"Really?" Zane blurted out, staring incredulously at Sam, who nodded calmly. His unruly and carefree demeanor was restrained, and his composed attitude showed that he wasn't joking.Zane fell silent again, furrowing his brow as he intently observed Sam.It was as if he thought everything through in an instant, giving up without hesitation. He didn't even remind Zane of the request from years ago to take care of Penny. Instead, he said this would be the last time he would help out.Logically speaking, this should be a satisfactory outcome for Zane. After all, from any perspective, the Lowe family's scion would only be a burden to Sam.Looking again at Sam's attitude, it seemed he didn't want Penny to know he was the one quietly spending money to handle things behind the scenes.Since there was no plan to meet her, he didn't need to worry about anything after that. If that was the case, it would be better to just end it early.That way, if Sam saw Penny falling in love, getting mar
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1063 No Need to Bother
All those old scoundrels from the Lowe family undoubtedly ranked the highest. Then there was Jessica, the entertainment industry's national goddess, who also played a significant role.Besides them, there were a few minor celebrities who didn't really make the cut.However, as Sam's partner and someone who watched him grow up, Zane privately hoped Sam could find a better girl.So, he advised, "There are plenty of socialites in Riverwood, and Amdale has no shortage of beautiful young ladies, either, and Rookfort isn't much different."You and the Lowe family's daughter haven't even officially met…""Who said I haven't met her?" Sam interrupted him without a second thought.He had even seen her twice. How could Zane say they hadn't even met yet?The first time, she gave him all the money she had. The second time, he spoke up to help her get that role.After these interactions, they could be considered acquaintances.Zane choked up and couldn't find the words to refute.He was s

Because Penny declined his offer, Zane didn't insist. After a bit of small talk, he ended the call.He politely mentioned that if she needed any help, she could call this number again. If he could assist in any way, he certainly would.However, Zanw knew very well that, given Penny's temperament, she would rather give up what she had than actively seek help from a stranger.Yes, to Penny, Zane was just a stranger. He was a person she had met once but didn't really know.This time, Penny didn't respond as coldly as she did when she was 18. Instead, she exchanged a couple of polite pleasantries, mentioned that she would reach out if needed, and then hung up the phone.After that, she let out a long sigh of relief and lay on the lounge chair on the balcony, gazing at the view outside the window.There were fluffy white clouds in the azure sky and the greenery visible in the neighborhood. Sparrows were chirping persistently as they darted through the forest, and the cicadas loudly bu

Although the other person said only one word, Penny could still tell he didn't have any ill intentions.Because of that faint sense of familiarity, Penny didn't hang up the phone immediately. "Hello? May I ask what this is about?"The unfamiliar and distant tone probably made the man on the other end of the phone pause for a moment. It was only after a brief silence that he responded."Young lady, don't you remember me? It's Zane Moran."His voice carried a laugh, with a hint of teasing.Only then did Penny remember who he was, but she wasn't happy at all.Zane meant no harm when that incident happened back then. But despite that, over the years that had passed, he became one of the people and things Penny would rather not recall.Whether it was the exam she missed, the incident where Spencer took her to the hotel against her will, or Zane, who gave her 30 dollars for a taxi ride.She just wanted to hide all of them deep in her memories.The recent events had particularly made

"I'm fine. You all don't have to look so worried. You're making it seem as if something bad is going to happen to me."Penny looked at the two people at the door who were showing a range of expressions, feeling speechless.Cecilia was provoked by her words, and her eyes turned red."We're worried about you. You have no idea what you look like right now. You're almost like one of those disheartened protagonists in novels who hated the world."Penny clicked her tongue twice and said, "Aren't you exaggerating?"She didn't believe it. She was just worried about money. It wasn't like she had become disillusioned with life.Besides, she didn't dislike this world at all. On the contrary, she really liked it.Whenever Penny came across posts online suggesting that all humans should just die, she always felt like rolling her eyes. If they wanted to die, they shouldn't drag others with them.When searching for her own role in movies, TV dramas, and novels, Penny particularly preferred re
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1059 Helpless
Penny's way of clarifying things was to simply tell the truth.Sometimes, trying to cover things up would just lead to needing 100 more lies to continue the cover-up. That would often end up making things worse and more ridiculous.It was better to tell the truth about the situation.To answer the question of why she lashed out at the Lowe family, she briefly explained her experiences over the years.Why didn't she attend the final paper of the college entrance examinations? She personally reopened that old wound.As for that man in the hotel, Penny didn't have much of an impression of him anymore. She only remembered not taking his business card and accepting 30 dollars from him.Why did she show up at that man's hotel room? She wrote it down truthfully—it was her father who personally took her and left her at the hotel, wanting to trade her like a commodity.Every single word was carefully considered and written by Penny.She didn't share much of these things with Cecilia.

Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1058 Excuses
Once the official statements were released, Penny's career being ruined became a certainty.The only surprising thing was probably that after the film crew issued their statement, the largest investor also requested to withdraw.The film crew was completely shocked, but there was nothing they could do. The scion was willing to lose money just to withdraw his investment, so what could they do?The amount of money in the compensation was nothing compared to the amount that the scion planned to invest. The production team would incur a significant loss.With one less investor, the project's status was essentially downgraded. They had much less room to manipulate their gains now, too.One would understand why the scion was doing this if they used their brain a little.However, the protests from the audience couldn't be ignored, and compared to the investors, it was clearly more important to keep the show going.After all, they could always attract more sponsors, even if the amount o
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1057 Despised
In addition to the widespread backlash caused by the phone recording, Penny's academic credentials were also scrutinized and exposed.Before the college entrance exam, she had always been the top student in her school and had never ranked anything else.However, in the college entrance exam, she barely passed the minimum mark for key institutions, far below her usual performance.Some people speculated that she had been cheating during regular exams and that her actual abilities were much worse.However, the exam results could be checked online, and the fact that Penny scored zero on the last exam was surprising.It was even more shocking that she was admitted to a top-tier university despite missing an exam. It was truly exceptional.But few people paid attention to this information.After all, the achievements attained through hard work couldn't be faked. Even if the results weren't as expected, it was undeniable that she was stronger than many others.Regarding this topic, t
