Chapter 531

Groggy in the darkness, Jade felt herself sinking as if transported back to darker days."You're just a dog raised by the Severins. If I say kneel, you don't crawl.""Hahaha, look at her! Doesn't she resemble a dog?!""You worthless piece of garbage, not even worthy of cleaning up after me."Endless curses, endless humiliation... In the dark, damp room, no one showed any concern for her life.…Lying pale on the hospital bed, Jade couldn't shake off her nightmare. Her forehead burned, and she had been feverish for a day without waking up.Caelan remained by her bedside, brows furrowed, tightly holding her hand.He was just a step too late, and Jade had been tortured like this. If he had been any later, would he never see her again? The mere thought of that possibility made his heart ache so intensely he struggled to breathe.Samuel's brows were knit tightly too, his expression grave as if ready to devour someone. Upon learning of Jade's accident, he had hurried to brief Kenned

In his current state, Caelan appeared as though he had been in a brawl and emerged defeated."You..." Jade attempted to speak, but her throat was parched, as if she'd ingested sand, rendering speech a struggle.She reached for Caelan's face, but his large hand clasped hers firmly, causing her to frown in an attempt to withdraw, but her efforts were futile due to her weakened state.Caelan gazed at Jade with intensity, holding a glass of warm water and delicately spooning some into her mouth. His voice was gentle. "Drink slowly."As the water trickled down her throat, Jade felt a measure of relief, the burning sensation subsiding."How long have I been asleep?" she asked weakly.Caelan smiled faintly. "Not long, just a day. You were too tired."'Surprisingly long…' Jade couldn't help but furrow her brow.Her body was too weak. Just this level of torment, and she couldn't take it. It seemed like she needed to prioritize fitness on her schedule."Is there any food?" Jade asked, s

Jade had her meal like a deer in headlights. Caelan wasn't just feeding her—it was downright criminal. Every move and every glance of his had the power to captivate."Okay, I'm full now." Jade pushed the bowl away, refusing to eat anymore.Caelan looked at the empty bowl and nodded in satisfaction. "Good, then have some fruit.""Okay." Jade obediently nodded. She really should replenish her vitamins.Caelan brought over an apple and began peeling it for her. As he looked up, he caught Jade staring at him with wide eyes, prompting him to chuckle."What are you laughing at?" Jade looked puzzled and muttered under her breath, "Just because you're handsome."Caelan smiled warmly and reached for a tissue, leaning in to delicately wipe a stray morsel of food from the corner of Jade's mouth. His movements exuded gentleness as if he were cradling the most precious treasure in the world.A soft breath escaped Caelan, brushing against Jade's face and sending a shiver down her spine as if

Who would have a grudge against them? Could the other party be deranged?Caelan tapped the table and asked Jade, "Do you remember the big fire at the Zeal Group?"Jade's eyes widened a bit. "Are you suggesting that they are the living subjects from Lloyd's laboratory?""That's just my speculation. Whether it's true or not, we'll have to wait for the police investigation to come out," Caelan replied.Jade bit her lip. She remembered being puzzled at the time. Despite the lab being completely burned down in the fire, there was only Asher's body. It turned out that those living subjects had already been moved away.It was just that she couldn't find any evidence at the time. Who would go to such lengths to help Lloyd? What were they after, taking such a big risk?"Knowing the source of these bodies will make it easier to investigate. We just need to check the surveillance footage from the Zeal Group that day, and we're bound to find something," Jade analyzed carefully.Kennedy nodd

Caelan glanced at Cooper coldly, looking very displeased. He had seen this kid getting too close to Jade multiple times, obviously up to no good.Jade looked a bit embarrassed as she glanced at Cooper, whose expression changed noticeably. He sneered at Caelan. "If you had the ability, would you have stood by and watched Jade being taken away, powerless to help? Look at what she's been through, almost losing her life.""That's a matter of the Fitzgeralds, none of your business," Caelan retorted coldly."Of course it's my business. Jade is akin to my aunt, so I have a responsibility to protect her," Cooper shot back.Caelan snorted. "I don't have a nephew like you.""As if I want an uncle like you…""I'm not interested in that either."They went back and forth, sparking a heated debate.Jade and the others in the room were dumbfounded. Was this really the aloof Caelan Fitzgerald? He and Cooper seemed like two kids quarreling.Jade felt overwhelmed. How did she end up with such i

"That's right," Cooper replied. "While researching this virus, the Zeal Group is also developing a vaccine. Isn't the intention obvious enough?""He'll release the virus and introduce the Zeal Group's miracle drug. It's a goldmine." Melanie also realized it.The atmosphere in the room grew solemn as everyone exchanged worried glances. With the development of the virus by the Zeal Group, the entire Centus now hung precariously in Lloyd's grasp."Thank goodness we caught wind of this early." Tiffany exhaled, visibly relieved, her hand resting on her chest.However, Jade couldn't muster the same optimism. Recollections from her past life reminded her of Lloyd's extensive business network, particularly his close ties with an overseas pharmaceutical giant called Best of Both.Best of Both ranked among the top ten on the Phorbes List, boasting a blend of modern and holistic approaches to pharmaceuticals with a formidable global presence and influence.In her previous life, Jade had foc

Leah was the most important person to Jade, her sole family in the world. Despite not sharing blood, their connection surpassed even that of biological grandparents and grandchildren.At the sight of Leah, Jade felt her nose tingle. It was as if a bullied child had found their parent—her eyes welled with tears.Leah's heart ached as she saw Jade's distress. Gently, she reached out and caressed Jade's face, her voice filled with concern. "How did it come to this? These darned people! Are they picking on the Severins because we have no one else?""I'm sorry, Grandma. It's my fault for not protecting Jade." Caelan knew Leah's words were meant for him. He had solemnly promised Leah that he would protect Jade back then, but the result? He let her get hurt.Leah pulled a face, snorted lightly, and looked at Kennedy. "How come you're stumped in this mess too?"Kennedy sighed. "Oh, now you're blaming me too, old lady?""Alright, Grandma, I'm fine. It's not related to them," Jade said war

Once word of Lloyd's arrest spread, the Zeal Group's stocks plummeted drastically, teetering on the brink of bankruptcy within days. All employees were sent home, and the company was shuttered. In addition to money laundering, investigators uncovered various tax evasion schemes.Cooper retrieved surveillance footage from the Zeal Group fire and observed several boxes being gradually removed before the blaze erupted. Inside those boxes were the victims' bodies.The revelation of the Zeal Group's experiments on living subjects quickly made headlines, with major media outlets rushing to report the scandal.With such compelling evidence, Lloyd was likely facing a lifetime behind bars.The Zeal Group collapsed in a single night.

Sometimes, she couldn't help but think that if Zoey could have a child or two, he wouldn't be lonely in his later years.The household buzzed with activity as preparations for Melvin's engagement unfolded.When Jade arrived, she was surprised by the elaborate decorations, making it feel more like a wedding than a simple engagement. It was clear that Leah had wholeheartedly embraced Zoey."Ms. Jade, you're here." Brianna saw Jade and hurried over, saying, "Madam was just talking about you, and here you are."Jade glanced around and asked, "Where's Grandma?""She's in the living room talking to Anna," Brianna said with a smile, seemingly oblivious to Jade's surprise."Anna… Does she come here often?" Jade asked casually."Yeah. She comes over to help whenever she has time. She's such a good child," Brianna replied.Jade frowned but maintained her com

The bottles of red wine in the cellar were treasures Leah seldom indulged in, only bringing them out for special guests. Serving Zoey with these bottles of wine indicated her significant place in Leah's heart.Zoey gracefully navigated through the cellar, surprised, as she remarked, "I never expected Madam Leah to have such a wine collection."Jade casually glanced at the bottles but kept her focus on Zoey. "Yes, Grandma loved red wine when she was young. She built a vineyard specifically to collect them. These are her collections over the years. Quite impressive, isn't it?""Ms. Severin, do you also enjoy red wine?" Zoey suddenly asked.Jade smiled. "I only drink occasionally.""Oh," Zoey replied softly, then lowered her gaze to the bottles.Suddenly, Jade asked, "Do you love my father?"Zoey didn't expect Jade to ask such a question out of the blue. She flushed with embarrassment as she ducked her head. "Why are you suddenly asking this?""Don't be nervous. I'm just asking ca
