Chapter 221

As Serena turned to look at the night view zooming past the car window, she slipped into a daze.The gentle and strong Wilson intertwined with the bloodthirsty Wilson of that night, sending a whirl of complicated emotions through her chest.She couldn't understand her emotions, so she wanted to avoid and escape from the situation.Halfway there, Wilson received a call from his men saying that Lauren was safe, and Serena finally felt relieved.More than an hour later, they reached the location. Wilson brought her aboard the cruise ship, where someone specially came to receive them and show them into a luxurious private room. The moment they stepped in, Serena found Lauren on the couch with a glass of water in her hands. Her head was lowered, and she was quiet.There were a few people next to her, and one of them was a familiar face."Joseph?"Joseph turned to Serena. "Hey, Serena."Upon hearing Serena's voice, Lauren finally snapped out of her depressed state. "Rina…"She rai

Casper immediately denied, "We're not friends. I've only met John a few times."In the face of Wilson's power, Casper didn't waste a second to cut off ties with John.Wilson narrowed his eyes. "If that's true, you better show me how much you mean it."He took a drag and added, "This incident happened on your ship, so you should give me a satisfactory resolution.""Of course! Don't worry about it, Mr. Quade." Casper made a gesture, and two men entered the room to drag John out.Before they left, Joseph went over and kicked him a few more times.Serena said softly, "Laurie, where's Aaron?"When she heard this, the look on Lauren's face became weird, and she pulled the jacket closer around her shoulders. "I don't know…"Turning to Wilson, she asked, "Mr. Quade, will you help me to look for Aaron? I'll be forever grateful to you and even your family."Wilson raised his brows. "Are you sincere right now or not? You're saying it with such a tight face that it's scary."Despite his

"He's at the police station now," Wilson replied."Okay… Thanks," said Serena.A few seconds passed by in silence before Wilson said, "You don't need to thank me, Serena. I just don't want you to think that I'm a bad person."For a moment, Serena was stumped for words. She wasn't sure if she heard it right, but she sensed a trace of humility in Wilson's voice.After hanging up, she soon received another call. This time, it was from Joseph. "Serena, are you girls back home safely?""We're home. What about you? Did you return home?""I'm still out. Damn, I couldn't stop myself and gave Aaron a beating while sending him to the police station earlier. He's a scumbag!"Joseph continued in a huff, "He looks like a decent man, but nothing about his behavior is decent. How could he pimp his girlfriend to another man? "If I hadn't sensed something amiss and followed after them, it would be the end of Lauren, the fierce tigress.""I heard from Lauren that you saved her at the critica

By the time Serena and Lauren reached Aaron's company, Joseph was already at the entrance waiting for them.Not a strand of Joseph's hair was out of place as he completed the look with the latest leather jacket from Gucci and boots. Holding a pair of sunnies in his hands, he leaned lazily against his car, looking perfectly like a Casanova out of a portrait."I've been waiting since forever. Hey, you look good. You were a crybaby last night, and I thought you'd never pick yourself up again. Who would have thought that you have a rather strong recovery system?""You're the crybaby!" Lauren rolled her eyes at him.Then, she muttered, "Thank you for last night. You saved me once, so let me know if you need any help from me in the future.""Looks like you're not an ingrate." Joseph beamed."Aaron Zimmers is still locked up. While he's not here, let's make a scene at his company!""Let's go!"Both of them marched into Zimmers Corporation aggressively. Trailing behind, Serena was sudd

However, the situation wasn't any better for Aaron after his release. Since John went to jail, their agreed investment washed down the drain, leaving Zimmers Corporation hanging by a thread.Afterward, for unknown reasons, their original partners gradually pulled out one after another. This led to Zimmers Corporation crumbling in one day. They announced bankruptcy. Their creditors and landlord caused Aaron hell, pressing him for payment.When Lauren heard about this, she cursed loudly, "He deserves this!""Aaron already received his retribution. Lauren, don't hate him anymore. He's not worth your attention," Serena said."I'm not giving him any of my attention.""Then, why are you checking the news on Zimmers Corporation every day?"Quietly, Lauren sighed and plopped onto the bed. "He's my first love, and it ended like this. This is horrible."She reckoned that she would need some time to get over it completely."Rina, both of us are jobless now. I'll have to stay at your pla

Candice's face turned livid from Lauren's insult. "That's nonsense! I'm Justin's girlfriend!""Girlfriend? Justin is Rina's little bootlicker now. What kind of girlfriend are you?"Jenna shouted sternly, "Lauren Steele, watch your manners!"Although she disliked Candice, Lauren's insult toward Candice was just as good as insulting her.Lauren rolled her eyes. "I may not have manners, but I can't be compared to you. You flaunted the tramp who got pregnant out of wedlock to us. You sure have higher moral standards than me.""You—""Also, get your eyes checked when you have the time, Mrs. Farrow. You didn't appreciate Rina when she's such a fine woman. Instead, you took this bitch as treasure. If word of this gets out, the upper-class ladies will make a joke out of your tastes."Lauren was on fire as she continued blasting, "Like mother, like son. Both of you took a stone and regarded it as gold. "I'll offer you some advice since I feel like doing a good deed today. Justin the je

"Schedule her for an abortion," Justin instructed."W-What?" Candice thought she had heard him wrongly.Even the doctor was stunned. "Mr. Farrow, are you sure?""Do you have hearing problems? Abort the baby right now!""No, I don't want an abortion!" Blood drained from Candice's face as she staggered backward. "Justin, this is your baby. You can't do this!"She couldn't lose the baby. Without this baby, she would lose everything. Turning around, she wanted to run but was dragged back by Justin's men at the door."My baby?" Justin rose to his feet, looking as though he had heard something amusing.He grabbed her cheeks with a brute force. "I don't remember allowing you to have my baby. It shouldn't have existed because you got it through a fucking plot!""No… You can't do this…""Take her to the operation room." Justin's voice was icy. "If you don't want to do this, I don't mind resorting to more brutal methods."A shiver ran down Candice's spine, and tears rolled down her che

Willow knocked off from work early and went to Serena's apartment with the lamb chops she just bought. There, she found Serena alone."Where's Lauren? Isn't she staying with you for the time being?""She's having dinner with Joseph tonight.""Why didn't you join them?"Serena giggled. "Lauren alone is too much for me to handle. If Joseph joins the party as well, I'm afraid I can't control them at all."They were like two horses who had run amok from their reins."I'd like to have dinner at your place tonight. What do you think of lamb chops?""That sounds amazing." Serena walked over and took the lamb chops from her hands.She rubbed spices on the meat, massaged them a little, and placed them in the fridge to marinate.More than an hour later, she prepared two more side dishes. Then, she took out the marinated lamb chops and transferred them into the oven.Soon, a delicious smell wafted in the apartment. The lamb chops sizzled in grease when they were out of the oven. Then,

The sound of a slap rang across the room as Ronald gave Willow a tight slap. Her fair face instantly swelled.Hearing the commotion, Carmen rushed down from upstairs, "Honey, let's talk things out. Why did you hit her?""Get back!" Ronald barked, and Carmen quickly returned upstairs.All of a sudden, Willow thought that the situation was rather amusing.Ronald pointed a finger at her. "You know why the marriage agreement fell through with the Jones family. It's all because you acted inappropriately. "Mrs. Jones called and said that they want a conservative woman, not an odd one! What did you tell Leonard? Why did he think that you're interested in women?"Willow's expression turned a little indifferent. "Does it matter?""No, it doesn't matter anymore since the marriage agreement is already ruined." Ronald snorted and chuckled coldly, unbuckling his belt."I didn't want to do it, actually, but you keep testing me. Willow, as my daughter, you should sacrifice for me and the Q

A light glimmered in Willow's eyes. "No. My father didn't succeed in selling me. So, he's angry about that."Wilson smacked his lips and plopped onto the couch while Kayden helped Willow up.A nasty look washed over Ronald. "What brought you here, Wilson?""I'm here to look for Willow.""And why are you looking for her?""Well, I can't disclose the reason to you." Wilson checked the time on his expensive watch. "It's getting late, Uncle Ronald. I'll take Willow away now so that you can rest early.""Are you taking her away?" Ronald knew what Wilson meant—he was here to rescue Willow.But this was his house, and Willow was his daughter. No matter what, Wilson had no say here."Wilson, come another day to look for Willow. She made a mistake and will be grounded for a month."Wilson snorted in laughter. "Grounded? What gives?""Because I'm her father!""Those times are over, Uncle Ronald. What you're doing is called restriction of personal freedom. Do you know the law?" Hol
