Joyce snapped back angrily, “Carey Stoermer, it’s not your place to berate my man!”“Enough!” Zayn had finally spoken. He looked towards Kazim and Carey and said, “I know you’re unwilling to do this from the bottom of your hearts, but everything is for the sake of the bigger picture! Just now, the uncle of Tristan spoke of this with me. Daya will need to marry Tristan, or the Missouri Colemans will flatten the Michigan Stoermers and take her by force… Daya, for the sake of the family, I have wronged you!”Then, he sighed and said to Xyla, “Xyla, please persuade Daya.”Having said that, he turned and left. There was no light on his face, only a dull look.As for Joyce, she smiled and said, “Third sister, don’t feel too bitter about it. Isn’t it just a nephew? One that wasn’t anything special in the first place. Tristan is a proud son of the heavens. Even if he eats dung every hour, that isn’t anything to be bothered about. He’s still a son to be proud of! On the other hand, your
Winston Zeller was the head doctor in Michigan Premier Hospital and was also an honorary professor at Michigan Medical University. In all of his forty years of being a doctor, he had seen all sorts of patients, but he had never seen one as strange as the patient in front of him now. He watched as the man gulped down mouthfuls of soil that Abel had dug from downstairs. The young man ate the soil with gusto as though it was a luxury meal. “Does he have a mental disorder?“Or does he have pica?” Abel's face twisted uglily, and he looked at Winston and asked, “What do you think of my son’s condition?”Winston shook his head apologetically and said, “This is the first time I’ve seen a case like this. How long has this condition been going on?” Abel explained the entire matter, but of course, leaving out information related to everyone’s identity. In order to conceal that they were Missouri’s Coleman family, he and Jerome had worn masks to hide their faces. As for Tristan, he
“What do you mean she’s a ‘natural furnace’?”“You can look at it as her being a supplement. Tristan’s motive is to eat her.”Xyla felt a little sullen inside. “Haven’t you eaten Daya then? You’re still not admitting it?”Alex shook his head. “It’s not like that. It’s the other way around! I’m the one who got eaten! Previously, Zendaya was the one who drugged my wine and took the opportunity to eat me.”“Huh?”“You can even ask Zendaya.”Alex felt that since Xyla was Zendaya’s aunt and had seen the entire process, there wasn’t a need to hide it. He also needed to brush up his image, after all.Let’s face it. Being taken against his will after being drugged was already a miserable thing. There wasn’t any reason he should be taking the blame for being the culprit instead.Xyla’s shock could be described as Mars coming to hit Earth.This information completely toppled her. Zendaya had done something like this?However, this wasn’t a suitable topic, and she changed tones. “Alex,
Perhaps Hailey had just come back from the salon, seeing how she was dressed entirely in black.She was in a black chiffon skirt that was very short, just enough to cover her rear and exposing the entire pair of white, delicate legs. She also wore a pair of black high heels with thin straps. Alex followed behind her, looking at this stunning beauty in front of him. The way he walked was a little turbulent, as though there were ants in his pants, and he didn’t know where to put his eyes.When they entered the villa, it was quiet, with not a single soul in sight.“Where’s Brother Charles? Is he not home?” Alex asked as he took off his shoes. “He’s been on business trips lately. I haven’t even seen his shadow around for the past couple of days. I don’t know what he’s been busy with either,” said Hailey with a tinge of bitterness in her voice.Alex smiled and said nothing.Charles was managing such a large real estate company, so he definitely had many things to handle and all kin
“Nothing much,” Hailey said. “You’re a man and one with great strength. Help me move a box! I wanted Charles to move it, but he hasn’t been around lately, and this box has already been there for quite a few days.”“Haha, moving a box is no problem, of course.”Alex walked towards the top of the stairs and picked up the cardboard box.The box was indeed heavy, and he estimated it to be around 66 pounds. It was nothing to him, but to a woman like Hailey, she definitely wouldn’t have been able to move it.“It’s really heavy. What’s inside this?”“It’s a movable shelf that I bought for Zoey.”In the end, after moving it up to the third floor, the iron gates of the villa opened automatically, and a small car drove in.Alex was startled. “Is that Brother Charles?”Hailey’s eyes widened. “Impossible, he’s gone to Block City, and he won’t be back until the day after tomorrow!”“Snap inspection, perhaps?” Alex muttered in a low voice.The woman blinked, then raised her hands to hit hi
“Ahhh!!!”Hailey screamed. Never would she have imagined that Zack would dare to do such a thing.Last time, she had been in a drugged state, but this time, she was sober!Smack! Slap!!!She raised her hand and slapped Zack, kicking him and trying to push him away with all her might.However, she didn’t have any strength in her arms, and Zack was a big man with much more strength than her, so she couldn’t break free no matter how much she struggled. Zack’s breath that stank of alcohol whooshed over her face, and he grinned. “Little Hailey, don’t struggle. It’s useless. To tell you the truth, I took a tad bit of Viagra before I came here, so you’re the only one who can save me now.“Good Little Hailey, I’ve liked you for so long. Ever since the day you walked through those doors, I’ve been fantasizing about having a ferocious battle with you.“Let’s have a good one, to the point that we’ll die without regrets!“Beautiful, I’m coming!”The moment Zack finished, he was prepared t
Hailey took a deep breath and nodded. Alex smiled, then slapped a palm on Zack’s head.“What are you going to do with him?” Hailey asked, puzzled. “That’s it,” Alex said. Then, he thought about John Rockefeller. Zack’s ending would most likely be the same as him. He would become a vegetable, his consciousness hidden within a sea of consciousness until his death.And that would be considered a punishment for his sins.“That’s it? What does that mean?” Hailey asked. “He’ll be like this forever,” Alex said.Hailey’s beautiful eyes widened, and in the next second, she suddenly hugged Alex and kissed him. “This is a thank you! There’s no other meaning, and you don’t think about it too much. No one will know except for you and me.”***It was the middle of the night when Alex drove to Michigan. Hailey’s voice and smile still lingered inexplicably in his mind.He finally shook his head, putting away feelings and thoughts that shouldn’t have even existed in the first place, bury
Forget about Zendaya’s complicated feelings. It looked like her entire family was also unable to muster up any joyful feelings—especially Carey, who had a face of bitterness and hatred on it. The words ‘don’t mess with me’ were written on her clear, white forehead. As for Kazim, there was just a look of helplessness on his face. Carey stood up suddenly and said, “My nephew is dead. I won’t let my daughter jump into the fire. I want to leave with Daya. Nobody stop me!”These words were said for Kazim, who was next to her.Kazim also stood up, “But, our Stoermer family…”Carey’s eyes widened, and she said furiously, “I don’t care about whatever Stoermer family, I only know that I gave birth to Daya after carrying her for ten months. And now, you want me to sacrifice my daughter to get married to that bastard? I disagree! Kazim Sotermer, you don’t even want to protect your own daughter... what kind of man are you? If you dare to stop me, I will divorce you!”She pulled Zendaya and
