Chapter 814
She was already married! She would never be a fickle woman.Lana looked at the three unanswered calls from Andrew, and her guilt made her uneasy. The thought of her betraying Andrew made her too afraid to return his call.She could only message him: [I'm at the studio. Working late today. Will be back tomorrow.]He quickly replied: [Okay.]Seeing that he did not ask further, Lana suddenly lost balance and squatted on the ground. She was feeling conflicted and hesitant. Even now, she was too afraid to face the person who shared a bed with her. She did not know if her actions were right or wrong.She had no choice.During the three years she took Andrew abroad, they visited all the hospitals, but his condition remained untreatable. If this persisted, his organs would gradually fail, and he would die.Now, Andrew could only rely on medication to alleviate his pain. He was barely clinging to life.Besides him, Lana did not know who else she could turn to....Zach had booked the

"If you want to avenge them, you can come and kill me with your own hands once you get better. Or else, the next one will be the Young family," Zach ruthlessly said. A hint of coldness flashed past his eyes as he looked sideways at the door, "Arrange her surgery as soon as possible. If she refuses, tie her and get her onto the operating table if you need to."He left the ward after saying that.Every word that Madelyn said was about seeking revenge for Ethan. If Zach stayed any longer, he was not sure what he might do.Outside the door, Zach instructed the bodyguards, "Keep a close watch on her. No one is allowed to enter without my permission.""Yes, Mr. Jardin."In the office, Kai thought, 'I want to make amends. And the only way to do so is to ensure Madelyn is treated and can live safely.'Zach was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, smoking one cigarette after another. Kai opened the vents to let the smoke dissipate and said, "I know you're feeling uneasy now.

The ward was a mess. There were shattered objects on the floor, which Madelyn caused. There was even a pool of blood on the floor, which the nurses were cleaning.Madelyn was somewhat conscious. Her hospital gown was stained with blood, and she appeared extremely weak. Zach thought, 'I'd only been away for a short while. How did she become like this?'Zach felt a pain in his heart that he had never experienced.Madelyn's breathing was rapid. She struggled and managed to free her hands, "I said I don't want the surgery. Let go of me!" The nurses were holding her hands down.Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Zach approaching from the door. She coldly said, "You get out. I don't want to see you."Zach stood by the bedside. His emotions were unclear as he said, "Listen to the doctor and have the surgery."Madelyn looked at him and sneered, "Then, I'll curse myself so I won't make out from the operating table alive."She saw a hint of pain flash past Zach's eyes. She thought, 'Is
Chapter 817
In Ventropolis Prison, inside a dimly lit prison cell with no light coming from outside, Cecilia woke up in ragged clothes. Her feet were shackled with iron chains, and silver handcuffs restrained her hands.Fred Turner, who was wearing a black uniform, buttoned his collar button. The scar at the corner of his eye looked hideous under the dim light. He said, "You've been following him for so long. I never expected you to be a virgin."The few of you take her for a wash. Don't let her die.""Yes, Mr. Turner.""You bastard." In anger, Cecilia suddenly got up. Before she could even get close to Fred, her leg was hit by a baton. Cecilia screamed painfully and lay on the ground in agony.Fred, with his hat on, walked over to her and looked down at her, "No one has dared lay a hand on me on my turf. You're the first."Cecilia responded, "I'm your boss's woman. You're just his dog. If Zach finds out about this, he won't spare you."Fred had slept with many women, and most of them were
Chapter 818
Fred continued to say, "I'm not as easy to deal with as he is..."Cecilia's dress was pulled down. Her nude body was revealed to Fred.He quickly stood up before lifting her and pushed her face down on the table. He then violently performed the sexual act......There were strong winds and heavy rain in Ventropolis again, cleaning everything.In Mistral Monastery, Kevin thought, 'I'd never imagined that one day Mr. Jardin would appear in such a place.'He's sitting on the pew praying like a devout believer... And he's doing all this for Madelyn Jent!'To Kevin, Zach should be doing great things, like controlling the world's economic lifelines. He should not be stooping to such lowly, status-dropping actions for a woman.Madelyn had been here before, too.At that time, Ethan was barely alive. Kevin thought he would not live much longer, but he surprised Kevin. Later, he even woke up from his coma...When Ethan was receiving treatment at the hospital, Madelyn came here to pray
Chapter 819
Kevin did not know what to say. He thought, 'We've chosen this path, and there's no turning back.'The determination Zach once had to hurt Madelyn was now replaced by deep remorse for everything he had done...As the sky darkened, the grand church hall remained pristine and well-lit. The fire of burning candles inside the hall swayed due to the wind. The gloomy weather outside hinted at an impending storm.Zach was sitting on the pew with his body straight, head bowed, and eyes closed in prayer.After Kevin finished his last phone call, he walked into the hall, "Mr. Jardin, the hospital just called. Ms. Jent's surgery will be completed soon. We should go back now."Zach opened his eyes. His strong gaze was less fierce than before, with an addition of calmness, "What time is it now?"Kevin responded, "It's already eight in the evening. Once we arrive at the hospital, her surgery should be close to completion."Zach and Kevin then walked out of the hall.There were two people tha

Lana was startled when she heard Kai talking in his sleep. She saw him stretch his hand as if to grab something. Lana stood at the side quietly as she watched him. She had never seen him in such a vulnerable state before. Her eyes were filled with an indiscernible emotion.It seemed like Lana had an inner conflict. She could not help but clench her fists on both sides of her body. In the end, she heartlessly prepared to leave.Just as she turned around, Lana's thin wrist was suddenly grabbed by a strong force. With a pull, she fell into Kai's embrace.When he felt the weight on his body, he opened his eyes and saw the panicked Lana. He quickly hid the coldness in his eyes and playfully raised his almond-shaped eyes, "What were you trying to do while I was asleep?""Don't talk nonsense. I didn't do anything. Let go of me." Lana tried to get up from him. But her waist was then grabbed by his hand. She could not move."You threw yourself into my arms, and you want to run away now? Hu
Chapter 821
Lana's expression suddenly changed. She did not expect Kai to say these things to her. She suppressed her dissatisfaction. As soon as he finished applying the medication, she immediately lowered her shirt and eagerly distanced herself from him."To me, he's great." Lana looked down at her feet. "Please keep the affair between us a secret." Her voice was soft because she was talking about something shameful and unethical.She continued, "As your elder, I hope you can also control your feelings and start looking for a girl who likes you."You said this would be the last time. Let's not contact each other again."After she said that, she quickly ran out of the resting room, grabbed her bag from the couch, and left the office without looking back. She then pressed the elevator button to go down before getting into the elevator.Lana drove to the hospital today. Her shirt still carried a strong, pungent scent of the muscle rub.She did not drive home directly. Instead, she went to a h
