Chapter 2261
Three days later, Queenie came to visit Clara at her store again. Queenie was pale and bruised, and she looked haggard and tired. Clara stared at Queenie, dumbfounded at her appearance."What happened to you?" Clara asked.Queenie forced a smile. "Harvey did it. He was angry that I was useless and couldn't help him win the deal with Birch Group, so he beat me."Clara fell silent. Queenie had come to her before, hoping Clara would speak to Wilson to help Harvey in his business, but Clara had refused.Queenie studied Clara's reaction and pretended to be generous and easygoing. "Clara, don't take it to heart. It's not your fault. I fell in love with the wrong person. I didn't expect him to hurt me just because I couldn't help him win the project."After a short pause, Qunnie said, seemingly apologetic, "Sorry for what I said last time. Don't take it to heart! I was in a bad mood, and I was very rude. Now that I think of it, I'm glad I didn't help Harvey and his terrible friends win

"I'll be careful," Clara told Queenie."By the way, do you know about Mr. Brooks? During the White family's party, he was so rude to you. Now, he's in deep trouble. He's about to go bankrupt, and all his business is gone. He's looking for financing, but no one dares to lend him any money," Queenie mentioned suddenly.Clara listened quietly with no expression on her face.Queenie studied Clara's expression and said meaningfully, "Mr. Brooks is suddenly in such a bad situation just because he offended Wilson. Clara, you're so lucky to be married to a man like Wilson who even stood up for you. I'm so unlucky to have spent my youth with a heartless man like Harvey.""I'm sure you'll live a better life and meet someone you love eventually," Clara said."Really? Well… How about you introduce someone to me? I'm sure Wilson has a lot of young talents in his company. Why don't you help match me up with them, and if it works out, I'll always be grateful for your help," Queenie said with a l

Queenie got out of the car and returned to the church. Since the front passenger seat was occupied by Queenie's belongings, Clara stayed in the backseat. The door was closed, and the car keys were left in the car.As the scent inside the car grew stronger, Clara leaned back in the car and grew drowsy. It seemed to be the scent from the good luck charm Queenie had given her. Soon, she began to drift off to sleep.A few moments later, two men sneaked their way to the car. They casually opened the door, got inside, and drove off.When Queenie came out of the church, her car was gone from where she had parked it. She anxiously ran back to the church to ask. At last, she called the police. "Hello? Something terrible has happened! My car has disappeared, and my friend is still in the car! I tried to call her, but she was unreachable. Can you help me look for my friend and the car? The address is…" Queenie said, panic in her voice.After disconnecting the call to the police, she kept he

Queenie might have helped Clara in prison before, but she was now a manipulative and scheming liar. Clara visited the church with Queenie and went missing. Was it really just a pure coincidence?Just then, the door to the interview room opened, and Queenie walked out with red eyes. When she saw Wilson, she said remorsefully, "Mr. Birch, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have let Clara wait for me in the car. I was looking for my phone, and I didn't think the thieves would steal my car in broad daylight…"Wilson stared at Queenie with a cold composure on his face, and his cold gaze made a shiver run down Queenie's spine."Surely you should be blamed," Wilson said, his tone stone-cold. After that, he walked past Queenie and talked to the police officers about the case.Queenie shuddered, looking guilty. Mrs. Well misread Queenie's expression and thought she blamed herself for Clara's disappearance. "D-Don't mind Wilson," she comforted her, her eyes still red and teary. "He's just worr
Chapter 2265
Queenie would not be able to handle Wilson's revenge alone, not to mention the White and Valor family! For the first time, Queenie regretted what she had done to Clara. If she had to do it all over again, she probably would not use this plan against Clara!-When Clara regained consciousness, she found herself trapped in a room with a musty smell. She was tied up on the floor with ropes, her arms and legs restrained. Her eyes were blindfolded with a black cloth, so she had no way to distinguish between day and night.Clara could feel the concrete floor underneath her and hear two young men talking to each other, seemingly discussing something about her. The sound of her waking up stopped the men's conversation, and one of them said, "Oh, she's awake. Let's get to work now.""She's a little old. She must be in her thirties. It's such a waste," the other man answered."She may be in her thirties, but she's still pretty. It's a pity she has to be blindfolded. I'm interested in seeing

Clara was dumbfounded. The men knew she was a small business owner with a small store, which meant this was no coincidence. She was unconscious, and they could not have accidentally stolen a car with her in it.Maybe they were after her from the start!Were they planning to kidnap her? Did they know she was already in there when she happened to be asleep in Queenie's car?Clara thought about how Queenie had desperately invited her to the church and the charm she had given her. She vaguely remembered the light scent from the charm before drifting to sleep. Clara almost figured out the truth with all these clues. "Enough. It's been a long time since we've had a woman, and you're the only one we'll devour today!" One of the men said, and the hands continued tearing her clothes apart.Clara had a bad feeling and knew it would be hard to escape this fate. She only hoped that the baby in her belly would stay safe.Determined to protect the baby, Clara stopped fighting back and decid

She immediately understood the thing on her neck was a dagger. Martin growled, “Don’t come near me! I’ll kill her if you guys come any closer!” The two young men from just now kept repeating, “I don’t know anything. He’s the mastermind behind this! He forced us to do this!” Clara was blindfolded, and she could only listen to what was happening around her. At that moment, she heard a familiar voice. “Alright. Don’t hurt her! We won’t go near you!” Clara was surprised that Wilson was there. Martin breathed heavily and pressed the dagger into Clara’s neck. She felt a sharp pain in her neck immediately. Clara gasped in pain while Wilson shouted angrily, “Stop hurting her! You won’t get away from me if anything happens to her!” “Fine! I won’t hurt her! Tell these police to get the hell out of my way! After that, transfer two hundred million dollars to my foreign bank account and prepare two million dollars in cash and a car for me. I’ll release her when I feel safe.” Marti

Martin still wasn’t satisfied with Wilson, and he said maliciously, “Hahaha! The CEO of the Birch Group is pleasing me like a dog now. Since you care so much about this bitch, why don’t we let her see what you look like now?” The blindfold loosened, and Clara’s eyes widened as she felt a pang in her chest when she saw Wilson. He was kneeling on the ground while hitting himself hard with a wooden stick. He looked bloodied, and he was probably badly injured underneath his clothes. “Stop it, Wilson! Don’t listen to him!” Clara shouted. She could feel the pain in her neck intensify with every word she shouted.“Clara, stop talking or you’ll bleed more,” Wilson said with difficulty. Clara’s tears welled up all of a sudden.“Wilson, you want me to stop her bleeding, right? Since you guys are being so lovey-dovey, you should also feel her pain. Cut yourself on the neck and I’ll stop her bleeding!” Martin said. Clara was stunned at his words. The police officers behind Wilson s
