All Chapters of Love Conquers All : Chapter 251 - Chapter 260

Half an hour later, Randall and Yaacob were speaking at a different location."I looked into it. Someone spiked your wine last night."Randall stood in front of the mirror as he smoked. The dense, lingering smoke embodied his melancholy.He never smoked unless something incredibly frustrating had happened. He heard Yaacob continue, "If it were just an ordinary person, there's no way they would have been able to spike your wine right in front of you. It's possible that they spiked the whole bottle, and it spread around."It was clear that this had been a set-up meant to trap someone.Despite how intelligent Randall was, he had fallen into a trap.As a single gentleman who was incredibly charming, he had naturally been approached by many beautiful women that night, but Randall had rejected them all.He had gone to the balcony alone, thought about his relationship with Rowena, and drunk a few more glasses than usual.He had wanted to leave only after he had won the crown, but af

While Yaacob was at work, Nancy took the medicine she had gotten from the hospital.It was bitter, but she forced herself to swallow it.Yaacob only got home at ten that night. Smelling alcohol on him, Nancy asked, "You went causing trouble with your friends again?""We didn't. We just drank a bit.""Were you with Xander?""He wasn't there."Nancy relaxed slightly.She had her own opinions about Xander and was always worried he would lead Yaacob into his affairs.In truth, it was not really an opinion. Xander was truly a bad person.Comparatively, Randall was much better.It was strange. Randall clearly had more shady dealings, but Nancy's impression of him was of an upright man. It was probably because she had never seen him fighting or doing anything dubious, so she could not imagine it. What she saw was just Rowena's husband.She felt like he resembled a bandit lord from ancient times — kidnapping a beautiful woman to marry him. However, Randall was incredibly sincere i

Randall never expected to meet Lola while visiting Rowena's parents.Lola looked to be feeling a bit awkward herself and explained, "I stay nearby."It was a rich area, but not as high-end as Amethyst Coast. Lola's family ran a business, so it was not surprising that she lived there.After what had happened that night, Randall had looked into her.She was a student of the School of Journalism and Communication of Athenapolis. Her results were very good, and her classmates and teachers had good things to say about her. Lola's father was a second-tier business owner and had been rather profitable due to favorable business conditions, but he had begun to struggle starting last year.Lola's mother had passed away when she was in primary school, and her father had remarried less than a year later. She had a stepsister a year younger than her. However, it was not really a blended family. Her stepmother's daughter was related to her father by blood, which meant that her father had been u

The temperature in the car was rising, and Nancy could feel Yaacob's reaction.When he was about to put his hand under her clothes, she pushed it away."Yaacob, I'm not feeling well."Yaacob had been in the mood and had not expected her to say that.However, he saw that she really was not feeling well and did not force her. He stopped himself and just snuggled against Nancy's body. After that, he bit her earlobe in mild anger. "Are you trying to torture me?"After cuddling a while, Yaacob finally sat back in the driver's seat and started driving."Did you catch a cold? I can get you some medicine when we pass the hospital later," Yaacob said."No need. I'm just very tired. I want to go back home and sleep."Nancy was so tired that she could not keep her eyes open. She was still finding it hard to accept what had happened today.She did not know if she was more sad or shocked. Her mind was a mess, and she was incredibly tired. Before anything else, she just wanted to sleep.

Nancy turned around and saw Lucy.Lucy stood just two steps away from her and stared at her emotionlessly for a long time.Nancy felt herself shiver as she asked, "When did you come in?"Lucy had probably slipped into their room after Yaacob had gone to pour the water away, forgetting to lock the door behind him.Why did she walk so silently?Someone appearing behind her without a sound in the middle of the night, especially after Nancy had been targeted by a murderer, was terrifying. The murderer was still on the loose. With Emily's father also having a target on her back, how could she not be afraid?"Do you need something?" Nancy asked.Lucy had woken up at the hospital a few days ago and was already back in the household.Nancy never really interacted with her. Even if they bumped into each other at home, they would not greet each other.She thought the best thing for them was to remain strangers, so she did not know why Lucy had suddenly barged into her room."Yes. I cam
