Chapter 541

Everyone was startled by the sudden turn of events. The hot soup Zoey was holding was aimed directly at Leah. If it spilled, Leah would definitely get burned.Leah was also stunned, forgetting to move out of the way.Just then, Zoey made an unexpected move. She held the soup bowl firmly, tilting the bowl so the hot soup spilled on her instead.With Zoey's scream, the bowl fell to the floor, shattering into pieces. The hot soup smoked as it spilled over the floor."Aunt Zoey!" Anna exclaimed, rushing over to support Zoey. She shouted, "Quick, call an ambulance!"Leah didn't expect Zoey to get scalded to save her. She was shocked and distressed. "You silly child, why did you let the soup spill on yourself? How can I live with myself now?"Everyone was in a flurry.Jade quickly approached Zoey, grabbing her unburned hand and placing the burned one under running water. After some basic treatment, they sent her to the hospital.Leah wanted to go too, but Jade reassured her, "Grandma

Zoey fell to the side, while Anna strode forward. Zoey didn't care about her own injuries, limping along to catch up.Once the two were far enough away, Jade emerged from the corner. As she watched Zoey leave, she fell into deep thought. She hadn't guessed wrong—there was really something wrong with Zoey and Anna. What was Anna's purpose in getting close to Leah, though?To figure out Anna's intentions, Jade needed to find clues from Zoey."Master, help me look someone up." Jade sent Zoey's photo to Owen.Ten minutes later, Owen came back with information. "Zoey, 45 years old, high school education..."All the information was as ordinary as could be, without any flaws. But the more flawless it seemed, the more suspicious it became.Since Owen couldn't find out anything about her, Jade had to turn to Caelan for help. She called him several times in a row, but he didn't answer. This was highly unusual as Caelan always had his phone with him, even during meetings. Could something ha

Jade smiled outwardly, but inside, she was gripped by pain. It made sense why Caelan hadn't responded to her calls, and why Samuel seemed uneasy, attempting to deter her from going upstairs. It became apparent that this wasn't the right moment for Caelan.Jade felt a pang of foolishness. How could she have been so certain she was indispensable to him?Caelan hadn't anticipated Jade's arrival, especially not under these circumstances. The disappointment evident in Jade's eyes made him realize a fundamental problem—she didn't trust him."Ms. Severin, it's not what you think!" Samuel hurriedly stepped forward to explain, seeing that Caelan didn't say a word.Jade smiled coldly. "Is that so? What is it then?"With that, she turned and walked away. Jade's heartache paled in comparison to her concern over Caelan's demeanor. However, he remained silent, his gaze indifferent. It seemed she held little significance in Caelan's heart."It's entirely my fault. I failed to clarify things wit

Jade felt increasingly agitated as she struggled to push thoughts of Caelan from her mind. His face, with its tenderness, smiles, and indifference, seemed to haunt her every attempt at distraction.Despite her efforts to suppress these memories, they only seemed to grow stronger, pushing her closer to the edge of a breakdown.In a desperate bid to ease her troubled mind, Jade rose from her seat and reached for a bottle of red wine. She poured herself a glass, hastily consumed its fiery contents, and felt its warmth spread through her body, gradually soothing her restless nerves."Wine truly is a wonderful thing," Jade mused, swaying the glass in her hand as she gazed at its contents through blurry eyes, a faint chuckle escaping her lips.With each successive gulp, Jade felt the intoxicating effects of the alcohol taking hold. She sank into the soft cushions of the sofa, her heavy eyelids drooping as she stared blankly at the ceiling above.Memories of her past life flooded her min

Jade had mentioned she was afraid of the dark, yet she hadn't even turned on the lights on such a stormy night. She must have been utterly heartbroken."Jade, Jade." When Caelan entered, he was greeted by the strong smell of alcohol.He switched on the lights, instantly brightening the room. It was slightly messy inside, with Jade's phone on the table, a bottle of wine and a glass beside it. Even her bag was around, but she was nowhere to be found."Jade? Jade!" Caelan rushed upstairs, opening each door to search, even checking the bathrooms. Unfortunately, there was still no sign of Jade. As he looked at the empty house, a sudden unease crept into his heart. Had something happened to Jade?The heavy rain and thunder persisted through the night and relented only at dawn, leaving the sky draped in overcast, fostering a gloomy atmosphere.Upon awakening, Jade was engulfed in a bone-chilling coldness reminiscent of an ice cellar. Every limb throbbed with discomfort.Shaking her heav

"So you tied me up here just to complain about how miserable your married life is?" Jade retorted defiantly. "Well, you've got the wrong person. I have zero interest in your marriage. What I'm curious about is why you've abducted me here."Nina rolled her eyes at Jade and snorted. "I didn't abduct you here. It was Lloyd."Jade looked surprised. "He escaped?""Of course. Did you think I'd leave him locked up in that godforsaken place for the rest of his life?" Nina's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness. "But I didn't expect that the first thing he did after escaping was to go to you. I thought he was going to kill you. I never imagined he'd bring you onto the ship."Jade, how did you manage to bewitch him? Even at a time like this, he insists on taking you with him."Lloyd's escape was a dire development for Jade. To make matters worse, he had taken her with him. With the vast sea surrounding them, there seemed to be no possible escape for her."Do you know how much I want to

Lloyd paid no heed to Jade's sarcastic remarks. He poured himself a drink and took a sip before turning to her. "There's no such thing as a free lunch, but I have a project you'll definitely like.""Oh, do tell," Jade replied calmly, though her mind was racing, trying to figure out what project Lloyd was referring to and whether it had anything to do with holding her hostage."I'm not afraid to tell you. I'm about to develop a new virus. If you're willing to cooperate with me, you can have it all in the future—money, fame, status. Isn't that better than struggling here? What's the Fitzgerald Group? It's just one of my defeated rivals."With our combined strength, we'll be the richest people in the world," Lloyd said enthusiastically as if he already stood at the pinnacle of the world.His ambition was far greater than Jade had imagined. Centus was just a stepping stone for him. His goal was the whole world.Jade didn't respond to his words but looked at him intently. "How did you

Jade truly admired Lloyd's intellect. The precision of his plans unveiled the complexity of his schemes, indicating years of plotting. It was evident in the confidence with which he conducted his experiments—he had already mapped his exit strategy.Nina was overjoyed by Jade's surprise. Witnessing Jade's vulnerability brought her immense satisfaction. Jade's pride and self-esteem were now shattered beneath her feet."So, have you made up your mind?" Lloyd asked.Jade thought for a moment before looking up at him. "And if I say no?""You don't have the option to say no." Nina's smile faded, her expression turning fierce. "I won't let someone without value live in this world, especially since you know our secret. Apart from cooperating with us, you have no other choice."With that, she clapped her hands.Soon, someone was brought in and thrown in front of Jade.The person had messy hair and was crawling on the floor, barely recognizable as a woman. What was terrifying was that her

Neve pleaded and wept silently under Nina's torment, refraining from screaming out loud, only clenching her lips and bowing repeatedly. It was unfathomable that the former Severin heiress now endured treatment worse than that of an animal.After Nina had inflicted enough agony, she kicked Neve aside.Neve quickly crawled away, avoiding Nina's gaze, evidently accustomed to such mistreatment.While Jade wasn't a saint, witnessing this scene filled her with rage. Neve deserved punishment, but not like this. It was no surprise that Neve had appeared terrified and cautioned Jade about Lloyd, urging her to ensure his death while she was imprisoned.Clearly, she had foreseen that Lloyd wouldn't show mercy. Jade had assumed Neve simply aimed to manipulate her into killing Lloyd, but she hadn't anticipated this revelation."How did she become like this?" Although Neve bore signs of abuse, most of her injuries appeared to stem from illness. Jade speculated that Neve must have contracted HIV

Jade glared at Lloyd. "You're so ruthless for money. Aren't you afraid of retribution?""I don't believe in retribution. Even if it existed, it wouldn't be my turn yet. Let's start the countdown." Lloyd waved his hand, and his bodyguard dragged Neve onto the deck.Besides Neve, there were several other men and women, all pinned to the ship's railing, waiting for Lloyd's command to be thrown into the sea.Neve was scared, but she also longed for release. Even facing death, she stared at the sea in a daze and chuckled.Jade didn't care about Neve but couldn't ignore the innocent people. Time passed, and her heart clenched. If she saved them, more people would be harmed. If she didn't, her conscience would be troubled.Lloyd had presented her with an impossible dilemma."Time's up," Lloyd said calmly and motioned to his bodyguard, who was about to throw Neve into the sea.Jade suddenly stood up and exclaimed, "Wait!"Lloyd signaled for the bodyguard to stop and turned to Jade.
