Chapter 41 Fearful Rebecca

"Why? Aren't the seats all the same?" Daniel didn't understand. When Rebecca last returned to the Brown residence for Jessica's birthday, she sat in the back and treated him like a driver. And yet, she was actively asking to sit in the front.Rebecca shot him an odd look. "Do you not know, Mr. Winston?"He frowned. "What should I know?" He would understand if all she wanted was for Jessica to leave. What Jessica did to Rebecca back at the Brown residence was over the line. It wasn't odd for her to have not gotten over her anger and demand for Jessica to leave. But he couldn't figure out why she insisted on being in the passenger seat.It was Caleb who explained, "The front passenger seat is the seat reserved for one's girlfriend or wife, Mr. Winston. You're saying Ms. Rebecca is your wife and yet you allow another woman to occupy the seat. It's a little …" he paused and stared at Daniel. "Or perhaps you've sidelined Ms. Rebecca and see Ms. Brown as your girlfriend. If that's the cas

Chapter 42 Unraveling the Truth of the Assassination

"There's nothing to compare between the two." Daniel frowned."Why not? Because Mr. Crawford Junior is a man and Jessica is a woman? Gender equality is a thing these days, Mr. Winston," Rebecca said upright and fastened her seatbelt. "You were telling Mr. Crawford Junior that not only women can be homewreckers. I'd like to ask you a question. Between Jessica and I, which one of us is the homewrecker?"The air in the car suddenly froze over. Aside from the whirr of the engine, only their shallow breaths could be heard. Rebecca, of course, was not expecting Daniel to answer. She let out a self-deprecating laugh. "There's a saying on the internet that claims the unloved one is the true homewrecker. I know even if you don't say anything. I understand now. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink …" She paused and inclined her head to look at him with a solemn expression. Her voice took on a serious tone. "I've already let go, Mr. Winston. Can't you leave me be?"He s

Chapter 43 Throws Out the Jacket

Rebecca feigned ignorance. "What do you mean? I don't remember.""You asked me if I would …""So, would you?" she cut Daniel off before he could finish. She stood at the steps of the villa as she turned to look at him, keeping her eye level with him."Of course not." Daniel frowned. He didn't understand why she would ask such a question but offered an answer anyway. "Well, that's that, then. Why are you asking?" Rebecca shrugged and faced away from him to take off her stilettos. When her bare feet hit the floor, exhaustion seemed to overtake her.The exchange had Daniel frowning even more. By the time he regained his wits, she had already changed the subject. He wanted to ask her why she would ask a question like that, but she already sought her own answer. He followed after her. "I just don't understand what you've gone through to ask me a question like that. Life and death aren't trivial matters, Becca. Murder is against the law. I don't have the means to get away with it. And

Chapter 44 You Treat Jessi So Well

The jacket fell to the ground, and just like that, the two of them were in a deadlock. Rebecca didn't know the reason for Daniel's animosity toward Sam and the others. It would be absurd to think that he misunderstood the relationship between her and Sam. Forget the fact that they were siblings, but even if they were lovers as he had thought, that was none of his concern. They were getting divorced.She would eventually meet someone new. Even if that someone wasn't Sam, she would meet someone who was a perfect match for her. It wasn't as if she couldn't date and get married again. Furthermore, whoever she dated didn't concern Daniel at all.If he didn't misunderstand their relationship, Rebecca was even more confused. Sam's industry in Riverwood had zero connection with Daniel's. Although the Winstons and the Johnsons were competitors, one was in Riverwood and the other was in Rookfort. She couldn't think of any other reason to explain Daniel's animosity other than the fact that he

Chapter 45 Daniel Takes Away Rebecca's Phone

Daniel stood there, unmoving. Rebecca urged him, "What are you waiting for? You said you'd agree to anything. Are you going back on your word? Don't tell me you can't do something as simple as bringing me away from this place.""Why?" Daniel asked, standing on the stairs with one hand in his pocket. "What do you mean, why?" Rebecca didn't understand his question. "Why don't you want to live here?" Daniel rephrased his question. He remembered that Rebecca and George had discussed marital home choice. George suggested the location, and Rebecca was the one who made the decision. But she didn't want to stay here now. Even if this home was for her and her only, she still disappeared that night, leaving nothing behind."I don't need to tell you a reason, do I?" Rebecca looked at him, puzzled. But judging by the expression on Daniel's face, it seemed that she did. Therefore, she had no choice but to give him an answer, "It's because I don't sleep well in an unfamiliar place. Besides

Chapter 46 Daniel Kicks Rebecca Out

"You're sick in the head! That's what I'm saying!" Rebecca yelled. She snatched the phone from Daniel and nestled back on the sofa. She blamed herself for choosing a place as quiet and secluded as Springford when they married. It was difficult for her to get a cab here.Daniel didn't say anything else and simply stared at her. After that, he took out his phone. The number saved as Becca was still at the top of his contacts list. With a frown, he tapped on the call button. Just like every time he tried to call her, he only heard the robotic voice saying, "Sorry. The number you have dialed is no longer in service …" He put the call on speakerphone for Rebecca to hear. Even though he didn't say anything, his actions had already spoken for him. He wouldn't have heard this prompt if she hadn't changed her number because if he had blocked instead, he would have gotten a different prompt altogether. Rebecca lazily lounged on the sofa, not moving a single inch. She said, "Your problem, D

Chapter 47 Caleb Is Injured

That was Ethan Somner. Even from a long distance, Daniel could still recognize the man Rebecca was hugging. After all, Ethan was an actor with the title of best male actor; he was a well-known star. Of course, Daniel knew him. Besides, this big star had trouble with Winston Jewelries two years ago. Originally, Ethan was supposed to endorse Winston Jewelries, but he requested to terminate his contract two years ago. He would rather pay liquidated damages than continue the endorsement. He was very stubborn. No matter how everyone tried to convince him otherwise, he still demanded to terminate the contract.Ethan had been in the industry for many years but kept it low-key. Except during the promotion of his work, he never showed up anywhere else. No one could even find information about his parents on the internet, and many of Ethan's loyal fans caused a lot of trouble when he terminated the endorsement, damaging Winston Group's reputation."I didn't expect Rebecca to know a big star

Chapter 48 Daniel's Involvement

"Daniel? Why would he …" Rebecca frowned, regretting speaking up for Daniel at the first moment."Who else would it be if not him?" Sam was somewhat unhappy, his expression dark. He put away the first aid kit after applying medicine to Caleb's wounds.Knowing she said something wrong, Rebecca apologized, "I'm sorry, Sam, Caleb. I didn't mean to speak up for Daniel. I just …" She didn't know why she defended Daniel. It was likely because they grew up together and Rebecca understood him. He wasn't someone who would pull tricks behind people's backs. When he told her he didn't send anyone to follow her abroad, she felt he was telling the truth. But even if he wasn't directly involved in this, she wanted to get even with him. She couldn't forgive him. Although he said he didn't lay a finger on her, her brothers ended up getting attacked just now. There was no way she could excuse Daniel so easily. That bastard was extremely hostile toward her brothers.However, no one blamed her for

Chapter 49 Daniel's Refusal

"N-No. Of course n—" Jessica was silenced before she could finish her words.The man held her neck, his grip tightening slowly. His smile grew wider when he saw her face becoming red from suffocation. She looked at the man in horror, frantically hitting his arm to free herself from his grasp. Unfortunately, the man didn't budge. He only let Jessica go when her struggles became weaker."Rebecca is just that capable of escaping from my grasp. Regardless of whether I succeed, you're in no position to tell me what to do. Do you think that men will do whatever you want just because you offer yourself to them?" said the man while giving a scornful glare to Jessica, who was gasping for breath. He wasn't an idiot like Daniel!"Why are you helping me, then?" Jessica asked. She was curled up on the bed, trembling non-stop. This man was fine before, and he always gave her what she wanted. Why was he mistreating her all of a sudden?"Maybe I'm doing so out of boredom." The man tilted his head,

Chapter 50 Rebecca and Ethan's Hug

Noticing who was at the door, Daniel frowned slightly. "Sure."Jessica walked into the office after getting permission. She asked, "What are you guys talking about?"Ryan ignored her and rubbed his nose. He said to Daniel, "I'm leaving. I don't have anything to do here anyway."He didn't like Jessica, who came into their lives much later. Rebecca was the one who grew up with him. Later on, when Jessica returned, he went abroad, so he didn't know Jessica very well. He wasn't sure if she overheard their conversation. Although Jessica said nothing, Ryan felt guilty for talking behind someone's back.Daniel let him leave and ordered, "Remember what I told you.""I got it. I haven't forgotten." Ryan waved goodbye to Daniel, not sparing a glance at Jessica when he brushed past her. Hence, he didn't notice the trace of resentment in her eyes.After Ryan left, only Daniel and Jessica were left in the office. Jessica walked over to Daniel with a smile, keeping a reasonable distance so as
