Все главы Love Conquers All: Глава 231 - Глава 240

Since Rhea City lay in the south, its winter was not as cold as Athenapolis, but it could be humid and rainy for most of the days. The weather was the bane for those without an umbrella and even worse for the homeless.Nancy found a place under the overpass to shelter from the rain, but it did not stop the bone-chilling wind, causing her to shiver from the cold.Nancy was still dressed in the hospital gown she was kidnapped in, but one sleeve was torn off during her struggle with the two gigolos. She also cut her calf open when she jumped off the building.Fortunately, the two gigolos were all bark and no bite. Their bodies had long been drained by all the sexual activities they did all day long. Otherwise, Nancy would not have been able to take them down.Nancy managed to free herself from the rope by secretly using the still-burning cigarette butt to 'cut' the rope. After that, she picked up a vase and hit each of them on the head. She then broke open the glass window and jumped

Nancy kept a close eye on Yaacob's expression when he spoke on the phone. After he ended the call with Randall, she asked, "What's the matter? Did something happen?""I'll explain everything to you when we're back in Athenapolis."He had just finally gotten back with her, so he did not want to bring up anything that would make Nancy unhappy.He carefully lifted her uninjured leg and asked her, "Is it sore?""Yes, and it's all your fault," complained Nancy."I'll help you massage it then." Nancy had never really experienced any hardships since she was a child, so her skin was as soft as jelly. It was as if a little force would break here. Yaacob used to think that she was too pampered and lacked the strength to go rough in bed, but when he saw the bruises all over her body, he would rather her stay pampered.'I guess some women are just born to be pampered,' he thought.The next day, Yaacob took Nancy to the hospital to see the homeless man she accidentally injured. The homele

When Nancy arrived at the company, she could feel the nervous tension in the air. She happened to meet Taya before getting on the elevator. She quickly grabbed her and asked, "Did something happen?"Taya stopped, glanced at her, then whispered, "Mr. Getson is in some trouble. Don't go to our building yet. It's a disaster over there."Judging from her tone, Taya seemed to know that Nancy had reconciled with Yaacob, so she kindly warned her."Then… is he okay?""I think so. He's handling the matter as we speak. It's just that Mr. Paulsen is so overcome by grief that he'll throw a fit at anyone who goes near him. So it's best not to go see Mr. Getson now," said Taya.Nikolaus Paulsen was Emily's father, so Nancy also agreed that it would be awkward for her to go up to pay her respect since she was the woman who stole Yaacob from his daughter.Taya was really busy. She had to pass an important document to Yaacob, so she said a hasty goodbye to Nancy and went on her way.After Nancy

A few days passed, and the heat from Emily's death showed no signs of dying down because of how brutally she was killed. Not to mention, she was a foreigner and also the daughter of the richest man in Europe. It was the talk of the town, and everyone had their own theory about who the murderer was.The police were also placed under great pressure since Nikolaus had been hounding them for an explanation, and the only evidence they had pointed to Yaacob being the murderer. However, they could not simply arrest him due to his status and family background, so the police were stuck in a very awkward situation.To make matters worse, the surveillance footage of Yaacob going to the hotel to find Emily was leaked, and it was revealed that Emily was in a relationship with Yaacob before her death. The two were suspected of having a conflict in their relationship, and Yaacob was once again pushed to the forefront by the public crying out for justice.During that period, Nancy stayed at home be

"Of course I'm doing this out of my own free will. It actually took me a long time to convince Mr. Getson to use me as bait," replied Nancy."Aren't you scared? I mean, you did read on the news how Emily was gruesomely murdered, right?""I am scared, but I'm more scared that he'll never clear his name. So I only need to tell myself that I'm helping him to feel less afraid."Nancy said the second half of the sentence with a smile, like an innocent young girl in love. In fact, she was still young, 21 years old. She had enough energy and time to love someone. Every time she fell in love, she did so in a way that made the story of Romeo and Juliet look like it was nothing!Rowena looked at her and thought of her first love. She and her first love were childhood sweethearts. They had been together since high school and went to the same university. The two of them got along so well that they never had a fight. Initially, they agreed to get married after graduation, but then, she met Rand
