Chapter 361 Scared Me to Death

The driver in front, probably also aware of the news, was currently engaged in a conversation with her. "It's a real tragedy, isn't it? If you're tired while driving, just pull over and take a rest. What business is so important at this hour? Look at this, causing such a catastrophe. Who knows which innocent driver lost their life? The truck driver himself is in deep trouble. It's really unfortunate!"Rebecca's mind was in turmoil. She stared at the image, feeling an emptiness inside her. Her thoughts jumbled, and a mix of complex emotions flooded her mind. Her initial reaction made her think this wasn't an accident but a targeted attack.However, if that were true, the employee who had taken her car would have lost their life in vain. She calmed down slightly and hummed at the driver's words, concluding that it was merely a traffic accident. Yet, even in that case, it felt like she had transferred her bad luck to someone else.Rebecca was lost in thought, not even realizing they

Chapter 362 As Long as You’re Fine

Rebecca knew her mother's condition well. Seeing her emotions in such turmoil, she couldn't help but put her concerns aside and quickly approached her, offering support."Mom, I'm fine," she reassured her mother.However, Zelda remained unconvinced. She examined her daughter carefully, not missing a single detail. Despite the scorching summer weather, Rebecca was dressed conservatively. Her long sleeves typically concealed the scars on her body, but now her mother could easily check for any additional injuries.Only after confirming that her daughter was unharmed did Zelda finally let out a sigh of relief. Even so, she held onto Rebecca's hand tightly, her tone filled with lingering worry. "Sam just called. He mentioned that there was an accident in Rookfort, and the car that got run over seemed to be yours. He couldn't reach you on the phone, so he called me instead. You scared me!"Rebecca's eyes began to well up with tears. "Mom, I'm fine, and so is Oliver. Look, we're both perf

Chapter 363 Don’t You Have Me?

"What's wrong, Cal?" Rebecca didn't know what was happening on his end. But when Caleb went silent, she immediately grew wary. However, after a moment, his tone returned to normal."It's nothing, I just forgot something for a moment. You already know what's going on. I'll tell you when I remember. See you tomorrow," Caleb replied in a low voice as if it was just a passing thought he had forgotten to mention.This happened from time to time, and under normal circumstances, Rebecca would have believed it. However, in her current state, she couldn't help but have some doubts about it."Alright, see you tomorrow." She hung up and stared at her phone for a moment, her brows furrowed. But she didn't have time to dwell on Caleb's unusual behavior. As soon as the call ended, she received numerous messages.The others must have read her message. And since her line was occupied by the two other calls earlier, the others all decided to text her instead.Most of the messages were from Sam, fi

Chapter 364 Oh, You

"You?" The man's chubby fingers pinched Karen's chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. "Weren't you the one who married into the Brown family and left me hanging? And you're saying that you've served me?""What choice did I have back then?" Karen immediately put on a pitiful look and lowered her gaze. "You refused to marry me, and my stomach was getting too obvious. I had to find someone to marry. Besides, looking back now, keeping the child a secret from you wasn't such a bad idea, was it?"As soon as her words fell, the fingers pinching her chin suddenly tightened, threatening to snap her jaw off. The man squinted his eyes, and his chubby face twisted sinisterly. "Are you making fun of me?""No …" Karen was choked up by his grip, and her eyes bulged out terrifyingly. She, too, began to feel fear.Back when she was pregnant, she had intended to use the child to marry into a wealthy family. However, the Minx family had never considered her suitable as a mistress, let alone to be part

Chapter 365 Without Him Knowing

Zelda and Rebecca were merrily chatting when they heard a car pull up outside their home."That should be Albert. I'll go and check." Rebecca stood from the chair and was about to welcome Albert at the door. After speaking to Sam and the others on the phone this afternoon, Albert checked up on Rebecca. He informed her that he'd come home earlier tonight. The company usually required Albert to work overtime when something was going on. Yet, Albert couldn't focus on work. He needed to check up on Rebecca and Oliver in person before he could relax. No amount of money and profit mattered more than the peace of his family.Rebecca also hoped Albert could remain at peace. When she heard the sounds outside, she got up and brought Oliver to welcome Albert.The afterglow from the sunset shone onto the tops of the mountains. It also cast two long shadows behind the incoming two men. The men wore black suits with dress pants that covered their long legs. Their leather shoes, polished to pe

Chapter 366 That Cockwaffle

What Maxwell struggled to comprehend was Rebecca's current behavior. A carefree grin curved on Rebecca's face as she talked about her past indifferently. "I encountered some nasty things while abroad. It's normal since poorer areas and more affluent areas are different. I didn't have much money at the time. So, it was inevitable that I bumped into people with ill intent. Things got better later on, though. Even Sam can't deny that."At the mention of Sam, Rebecca's grin spread wider. It was natural for siblings to bicker yet still smile upon talking about each other.Still, her smile didn't ease Maxwell's concerns. His features grew stormier by the second. "Did the Winstons not care about you …?"If what he learned back then was true, Daniel must've been the one who sent her abroad. He couldn't understand why Daniel did that. Even if Daniel didn't like Rebecca, whom George arranged for Daniel to marry, Daniel didn't need to cut Rebecca off financially like that. How could Daniel h

Chapter 367 Whether That Actually Happens

Hearing Ryan curse made Daniel stir on the hospital bed. His dark gaze shifted toward the former as he spoke sarcastically. "What's up with your amazing older brother now?""What's up with him? What do you think? Maxwell keeps running to Bex and giving her way too much attention. Now, he's even gone to dine at her house!" Instead of paying Daniel attention, Ryan sent Maxwell a long, aggressive text.At that moment, Maxwell didn't have the time to look at his phone. He had finished dinner at the Johnson family when Albert pulled him aside for a private chat. Albert likely wanted to tell him something without alerting the others, especially Rebecca.There were roses of various colors growing from the flowerbeds in the backyard. They grew in lush yet neatly maintained bushes. The outdoor lighting gave a gentle glow that accentuated the roses' charm.Albert led Maxwell there. Before speaking, he picked up a pair of gardening shears to trim some of the wilted flowers. Maxwell didn't u

Chapter 368 The Untouched Ring

Even so, one shouldn't compare marriage to business deals.Maxwell's lips curled into a grin as he removed his reading glasses. His playful, piercing gaze met Albert's, which gave him more magnetism. He had a charming face that could sway others' minds. Albert felt Rebecca might fall for Maxwell's looks. People naturally desired to settle down but preferred it if their partners were attractive. Still, Albert believed only time would reveal Maxwell's true nature. He held the latter's gaze and stopped tapping on his tablet. That was when Maxwell spoke with a sincere tone. "If you agree to let me marry Bex, I'll marry into and live with the Johnson family. I'll stay here with her for the next ten years or more. Albert's eyes rounded in slight shock when he heard that. He never imagined Maxwell would say such a thing. His conditions were cruel, but he never explicitly said Maxwell would marry into the Johnson family. Maxwell was the one who called it what it was. "Do you underst

Chapter 369 Give You Trouble

"Have you finished looking at it?" asked Albert, who stopped touching his ring. His attention returned to Maxwell when the latter returned the table to the table.Maxwell gave a low hum in response. Then, he put on his reading glasses again. Maxwell remained stoic, but one could tell his energy was different. It seemed like he was holding back his rage.Albert pretended not to notice and only broke down the pros and cons. "So far, it hasn't affected my family, brother, and cousins' businesses too much. What happens in the future is uncertain. "As for your feelings for my sister, I understand it and can tell you're sincere. Still, sincerity isn't as good as my sister's safety. I hope you consider this matter sternly before telling me your answer."Maxwell's grim demeanor returned to normal with time. His gaze was still frosty beneath his glasses, but his features relaxed significantly. He even spoke in his usual tone. "Are you implying that you, your siblings, relatives, and Rebe

Chapter 370 The Sunshine of His Life

Maxwell shook his head. "Why would he give me trouble?"Rebecca didn't know Albert had helped Maxwell, so she couldn't help overthinking. Sam told her many unpleasant things about Maxwell. Sam called Maxwell a man who pretended to be innocent and harmless when he was secretly a horrid monster. On top of that, Albert pulled Maxwell aside for a private chat today. With all those things in mind, she couldn't help but worry."Don't take it to heart if Albert said anything too hurtful, Mr. Jenkins. My family are actually … decent people." She felt a little guilty when she finished that sentence. Naturally, her brothers adored her and only wanted to give her the best things. That said, their attitudes toward outsiders weren't the same. The stark contrast around others was especially true for Sam. So, Rebecca had turned her back on her conscience by saying her family members were decent people.Maxwell watched as Rebecca's features twisted from the awkwardness. The initial depression h
