Jane held up her body, which was chilled to the bone. She got to her feet, staggering, but as soon as she stood up, her numb legs gave way under her, and she fell hard onto the asphalt road, butt-first. She gave herself a cynical smile… 'Why weren't you the one who died?'That did sound like something that man would say. Jane smiled, but it looked even worse than a grimace. "Rosaline, oh, Rosaline… Your death made me public enemy number one."On the second floor of Stewart Manor, a man stood t

There was a hint of surprise in Sean's eyes… Was she trying so hard to maintain her dignity even at a time like this?Then again, she was Jane Dunn, after all. This woman had always been pompous and prideful, such that even his rejection of her confession barely left a dent on her.Sean abruptly grabbed her delicate chin. "Mgh… Ow!" The hand on her chin was like a pair of metal pliers, the force on her chin threatening to shatter it. It hurt so badly that tears welled in Jane's eyes. Howev

She stopped screaming, letting these people kick and punch her as they liked, accompanied by their gleeful laughter.She pleaded for help not because she was afraid of the pain and the beating, but because she trusted in that tiniest bit of hope and fantasy she had left.

A Dangerous Atrophy/Qi River's Old Stream

“I’m here to be a cleaner.”The hoarse voice spoke up dully in the tiny office, successfully stopping the woman in her tracks. She paused and turned around, raising a brow as she appraised Jane from head to toe again. Suspiciously, she said, “I’ve never seen a woman in her twenties willing to lower her head and take the tough job of a cleaner.”Even the youngest cleaning lady they had here was in her forties. This girl may have a scar on her forehead and a stick-thin body, but she was still on

Jane walked slowly, climbing the stairs one at a time. She was a little tired by the time she reached halfway up the fifth floor, so she stopped on the landing for a rest. That was when she heard a noise… Jane’s heart thumped and she looked up to see a man embracing a woman around the corner, their movements hot and heavy.From where she stood, she could see the woman’s back and half of the man’s side profile.She inwardly cursed her luck.

Jane’s heart was still pounding, but before she could feel relieved, she suddenly realized that a man she did not know had his arm around her waist intimately.“Aaaah…” Jane panicked.

No one else had touched her like this before, not even… him.Haydn Soros’ expression darkened, and he reached out his other hand, clamping it across Jane’s mouth. “Shut up!
