"Impossible!" Xander refused to believe what Nancy told him. "Nancy, look at what Yaacob has become. If you refuse to tell me the truth, I won't help you the next time he hurts you.""That's up to you."Seeing how Nancy was unwilling to budge, Xander was furious, turned around, and walked away.Then again, the two had always been at odds with each other, so this turn of events was very normal.Xander refused to listen to Nancy because that would mean he had to accept the fact that something bad had happened to Anna. He would rather believe that Nancy was lying in order to buy more time for Anna to get away from him.As Xander left the hotel, someone bumped into him at the entrance.From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a petite and familiar figure passing by, and he reached out to grab her subconsciously."Ann…"It was not Anna!Nancy had kept Anna hidden somewhere. There was no way she would show up here."Pardon me."Xander released the girl, but she caught up

Yaacob was doing Nancy in the corridor on the second floor, a common area, out in the public.The Getson family had many members, and any servant could walk up on them unknowingly. Any Tom, Dick, or Harry walking past the corridor would see Nancy being pinned by Yaacob onto Julian's door…Yaacob and Nancy were married, so what they did was nothing out of the ordinary. However, the most intimate act was showcased in the most humiliating manner.Nancy could feel Yaacob's burning breath on her ears as he whispered, "Your definition of true love is never leaving me no matter what I do to you?"Now, Nancy understood what was fueling Yaacob's anger and rage. He was enraged because Nancy came back to the Getson Estate. Nancy was not the target of his wrath, but it was toward himself!Lately, Yaacob has been facing a particularly contradictory phase. He was doing everything he could to deny everything in his past. He even went so far as to make everyone hate and turn against him in the co

That night, a group of men sneaked into the Getson Estate and took Yaacob away.Randall needed to understand Yaacob's current physical condition and also monitor him on a daily basis in order to develop an effective cure. Besides, rather than letting Yaacob go about causing trouble and harming himself and others, it was much easier and better to lock him up.That was Nancy's idea. The three men were indecisive as to how to handle Yaacob's disturbing condition, and Nancy fixed this issue with such a simple idea. No wonder the saying goes hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."Are you sure about this? If we couldn't cure him in the end, I have to respect Yaacob's wishes and never let you see him again," said Randall."In that case, I'll just pretend that he died in Europe.""Don't blame him. He really tried his best.""I know."However, deep down, Nancy was not as decisive as she made herself out to be.Thinking that that might be the last time she would see him, she tailed Ran

A month later, an eye-catching couple who seemed to be in love appeared at Athenapolis International Airport. Both of them were wearing humongous sunglasses that covered up half their faces. Despite that, one could still tell that God had spent more time on them, having blessed them with striking good looks.The two of them stood out among the crowds, and at first glance, everyone had to agree they were made for each other. However, if they were to look closer, they could tell there was a different story.It had to do with the mismatched postures and the vibe they were radiating. The woman had her arm around the man's arm, but the man could not even straighten his back to stand upright, which was a waste for such a handsome face.Nancy noticed that too, and she quietly tugged on 'Yaacob's' sleeve to remind him to stand upright. Since they were back in Athenapolis, they had to be on guard because they ran the risk of being recognized by other people at any time.Alas! They could nev

In the end, Nancy decided to stay where Benjamin had prepared for her. That was because she felt something off about Yaacob. Nancy would be in grave danger if Yaacob had really escaped before the virus was removed from his system. After all, she had plotted against him, and he would definitely want to take revenge on her.Benjamin was thrilled that Nancy decided to stay with him. He was so happy that he even put off his work and canceled all of his meetings to spend time with her. They were spending time like any ordinary father and daughter would.At that moment, they were having tea while playing chess. Nancy was not very good at chess, and she lost almost every game."Nancy, the key to playing chess is to focus and keep your cool. Think three steps ahead and take three steps backward to see the bigger picture. If you are distracted and rush your choices without thinking them through, you'd end up being ensnared by traps, even the obvious ones."Hearing this, Nancy then realized
