All Chapters of Yearning for Her Return : Chapter 431 - Chapter 440

A disdainful sneer followed after a long silence."You're foolish and naive."David tilted his head to one side as a smile appeared on his pale face.A drop of water slid down from his forehead slowly. Rebecca couldn't tell if it was his sweat or the condensed water droplets from the damp cloth.David casually wiped that drop of water away, but it did not wipe away the smile on his face."You've given me an earful the entire way, Ms. Johnson. I think you've described me pretty accurately. Don't you think it's dumb to talk to a madman though?She tried to negotiate with a reckless madman and persuade him to be a good person.What a joke."Since you mentioned it, it might be. But, I want to ask you, Mr. Winston …"Rebecca paused. She mimicked David by cocking her head to one side to look at him. "What went through your mind when you rescued me from the water?"If he were a heartless devil, why would he offer help at the clutches of death?Wasn't it ridiculous, to think of it?

At Geralton Pier in Riverwood, there was not a human in sight in this usually busy place. The silence made one's hair stand on end.A piercingly bright headlight fell on several heads in the deepest part of the warehouse. The people in charge of the warehouse were surrounded in the middle.They were bound to chairs. Their arms and legs were tied to the chairs, unable to budge.Someone from the crowd tried to open his eyes but squinted because of the piercing light.When he regained his sight, he saw men dressed in suits and ties. He only saw them on the news and in the papers.They were Daniel from the Winston Group, Albert from the MRC Group, and Sam from the XR Entertainment. Ethan, the A-list actor was among them too.Meeting one of them would make him the talk of the town. Could he be dreaming? How could he meet all of them at once?The man woke up clueless as to what was going on. He seemed to have forgotten the pain he felt before he was knocked unconscious. He stared at t

Daniel squinted his eyes. Though silent, the look on his face showed what he was trying to ask.The old man had the same unbothered smile. "It's okay if you don't want to call me Grandpa. People are like that, especially young people. There is always a rebel in them. I like young people like you and the resilience you have. What a great quality you have sacrificing yourself for others!""Where is she?"Daniel didn't interrupt his illogical waffling and went straight to the point.Of course, he wasn't an oblivious dimwit.Daniel controlled the emotion in his words as he stared at the old man's smiling eyes."What can I do for you to guarantee her safety?"Everything came with a price. Daniel, as a businessman, understood this philosophy.The old man guffawed. "It's different talking to a smart kid like you."He didn't listen to Daniel and offer his request. Instead, he poured himself a cup of tea and took his time tasting it.Daniel was concerned about Becca's safety so he wen

As the door of the iron cage swung open, the surrounding people began roaring at the top of their lungs.They acted like primitive beings and expressed their excitement towards their prey.Even though Rebecca was exhausted, there was no way she could continue pretending to sleep in this chaotic situation.She slightly raised her gaze and observed the crowd around her. Then, she pursed her lips.Some spat at the cage, while others made obscene gestures towards her. A few were chewing gum as they looked at her like they were assessing a piece of merchandise.Rebecca felt disgusted. But she couldn't seem to do anything except temporarily comply with them.Moreover, staying hidden inside the cage wouldn't protect her from anything.Slowly, she shifted her body and stepped out of the massive cage.With each move, the shouts around her grew louder."Keith, this girl looks pretty good! She seems quite familiar. I think she looks like a celebrity.""Which one? Let's search and see. I

Like startled birds in a forest or fish scattering in the water, the group of people fled in terror toward the exit.After all, they didn't have a gun like David.The group was terrified as they saw their men falling to the ground.Everyone scrambled to escape.David moved against the tide and made his way directly to Rebecca, who had fallen due to exhaustion.Perhaps it was the overwhelming noise or the nauseating smell of the blood and gore, but Rebecca attempted to shift her body to the side, although her eyes were still half-closed.David half knelt beside her. His gaze fell on her, and a faint smile appeared on his lips."You can still move. It seems you are much tougher than I had imagined, Re ..."Before he could finish his sentence, Rebecca silenced him.Rebecca could sense someone approaching her in her blurry state. She knew that person was here to save her. So, she clung tightly to his neck.Unsure whether it was due to the pain from his wounds, David froze in plac
