"I wasn't wrong!" Janell Joy Carter shouted. "Nathaniel Cooper, do you think I'm doing this for fun?"
This man didn't understand her at all.
Everything she did was for him, it was fine when he didn't compliment her, but he even hit her.
The more she thought about it, the more Janell Joy felt wronged. Her nose tingled and tears ran down her face.
Janell Joy's tears are like a nuclear weapon to Nathaniel. He couldn‘t do anything to her.
But he couldn't just let her be, or else this silly girl will make the same mistake again, and injure herself again.
She definitely didn't know that in his heart, to have her safe and sound was more important than anything else, even more important than being a rich and powerful person.
“When my Dad gets mad at me, the most he would do is not talk to me, he wouldn't even lay a finger on me." Janell Joy wiped off her tears and said. "But you Nathaniel Cooper, you b’stard, you actually hit me.”
Since she was little, she was the precious daughter in the family, her grandmother would be worried to death even something that was not worth mentioning happened to her.
Today... Today, her favorite Brother Lucas actually hit her!
She moved a little, her butt was still in pain, it showed that's how harsh Brother Lucas was.
"Do you know why I hit you?" Nathaniel lowered his voice while he gently massaged the place where he hit.
“You bullied me.... Why do I have to know why you hit me." Actually, if she calmed down and thought about it, she would definitely know why he hit her, but she just didn't want to give in.
This time, if she surrendered and if anything like this happens again, he would still hit her again, she didn't want that to happen.
“So your butt doesn't hurt anymore?" He asked as he lowered his voice, showing a herce look.
“Nathaniel Cooper, try and hit me again and you'll see! See if I will still talk to you.” Hmph, this man was pushing his luck.
Nathaniel was treating the wound on her feet, "Do not let anything like this happen again, or else you will bear the consequences.“
"What does anything I do have to do with you?" She snorted, he hit her and now he was acting like a sweetheart. Did he think that she would sweep everything away and act as if nothing had happened?
Nathaniel said, “You know that when your father gets mad at you, he couldn't even hear to touch a strand of your hair and that is because you are his daughter, he loves you and cares for you, he doesn't want you to get hurt. If he knew that you got injured like this, would he fly here from New York?“
"Do not let them know.“ Janell Joy tried to kick him, but she accidentally kicked the chair, which made her scream in pain.
"Don‘t move!" Nathaniel held her down. His voice was deep but still he couldn't hide his deep concern for her. "If you get hurt, I'll feel hurt too."
Janell Joy: "...."
This man knew what her weakness was. After hearing what he said, she could not blame him.
Nathaniel said: "Remember, no matter when or where, keep yourself safe.“
"Nathaniel..."
"Call me Brother Lucas!"
”You called me by my name too, why can't I call you by your name?" Humph, don't think that if he said something nice, she will forget how he bullied her just now.
"Good girl!"
"I don't want to be!"
"Huh?" He raised his eyebrows.
"Brother Lucas!" She shouted quickly, and said, "You hurt me,"
"Only pain will make you remember."
"Then let me hit you back."
"Okay," he said, "When I'm done with your wound, I'll let you do whatever you want."
Janell Joy : "..." This man knew where her weak spot was.
Seeing that he was treating her so carefully, she couldn't bear to blame on him.
Half an hour later, Nathaniel had finished cleaning Janell Joy's wound. After he had made sure that she was alright, he slowly raised his head and looked at her : "Alright, have you thought of how to deal with me already?"
"Sit here." Janell Joy patted on the seat beside her.
"Okay." Nathaniel sat beside her obediently.
“Closer." She said.
"Okay." He got a little closer.
"Closer. You’re sitting so far, do you think I will eat you?" Did this bad Brother Lucas regard her as a little beast?
“Closer?" Any closer, he would have to hold her in his arms, did she mean that?
"Don't you understand?" Janell Joy gave him a blank look. She didn't believe that he didn't understand what she meant. He must be pretending to wait for her to throw herself into his arms.
"I understand." He smiled and took her into his arms, he rubbed her head, “Is this close enough?"
"Lower your head." She was ordering him like a queen, and Nathaniel followed all her orders.
Janell Joy hooked her hands around his neck, lifted her head and said: "My punishment is, I want to kiss you but you cannot kiss me back. I will take control."
"Little girl, you want to play with fire?" Nathaniel said lustfully.
"Not trying to play with fire, I want to punish you." Janell Joy naively thought that this was the best punishment she could give him.
But she overlooked that her Brother Lucas was not a prey but a wolf. Just as her lips touched his, he immediately took control and kissed her aggressively.
Janell Joy pushed him hard, but it was ineffective.
It was agreed that she would be in charge of this game, but why did he become the ruler of this game as soon as it started?
Sigh!
……..
At the scene of the cultural night.
Yaya noticed that the man she had been thinking about for the past few days. When she saw him leave, she ran after him without a second thought.
"Mr. Carter, please wait a minute." Yaya was a petite girl, so she had to trot to keep up with Andrew Carter. When she managed to catch up with him, she was already out of breath.
"What's the matter?" Andrew looked at the woman in front of him who was blocking his way. He had no impression of her at all.
"Hello, Mr. Carter! I am your sister's friend. My name is Yaya." Yaya stretched out her hand while she introduced herself, thinking that she should shake hands with him out of courtesy.
It turned out that Andrew didn‘t want to at all. He left without even saying a word.
It was the first time that Yaya had seen such a rude person. She caught up with Andrew and blocked his way again. "Mr. Carter, I have introduced myself. You should at least respond out of politeness."
"Simon!" Andrew ignored Yaya while he summoned his assistant who was beside him and stepped away from Yaya again.
Simon Banks took the order and immediately stepped forward. He held Yaya back and said, ”Miss, our Young Master is not interested in you. You'd better don't embarrass yourself.“
Yaya, “..."
What the f‘ck!
She just thought that this man was good-looking and eye-catching. She just wanted to look at him for a few more times. Who the f‘ck was interested in him?
He was really narcissistic! Yaya was so angry that she unintentionally kicked
the rock beside her feet. She felt so much pain that she jumped up.
”Who was this person? How can he be so delusional?"
867
Yaya was so angry that she kicked the small stones on the ground. How could the cute and sensible Little Jar have such a proud and arrogant brother?
He shouldn't think that he could get all the ladies because of his good looks.
But then again, didn't she fall for him at first sight just because he was good looking and elegant.
"Ha ha ha..."
Yaya heard Burly and Shane's voices coming from behind. They were laughing hysterically.
"What are you laughing at? Is it that funny? Do you guys have nothing else to do?" Yaya glared at both of them.
“Yaya, you used to say that I was aiming for the moon. Why did you make such a mistake today?" Burly pointed to the direction where Andrew Carter had disappeared and said, "That person is obviously way out of our league. You should just daydream about it, why did you have to try and embarrass yourself?"
On one hand, Burly was insulting Yaya but on the other hand, he only said it because Yaya was his long time classmate and friend.
Some things and some people should only be appreciated from afar.
Those who didn't belong to you would never belong to you. Even if one day you made up your mind on it, it would still be a difficult journey.
Burly always thought how great will it be if Janell Joy Carter was his girlfriend, but it was only a thought. Even if Janell Joy really agreed to be his girlfriend, he might not have the courage to be with her.
"I am aiming for the moon, so what?" Yaya really didn't believe it. She had already made up her mind to get to the moon, and that was, Andrew.
What the heck!
She looked to the direction where Andrew disappeared. She clenched her fists, as if she had decided to do something.
“Young Master, that lady didn't follow us." Simon Banks stood outside Andrew's car and reported the situation.
"What is the progress on the background of these people that l have asked you to investigate a few days ago?" Andrew asked Simon. Andrew rubbed his brows as he looked at the car in front of him.
Although the car in front of them did a really good job hiding, where no one could see what the people in the car was doing, but it was obvious what they were up to.
Nathaniel Cooper's driver and bodyguards were all guarding around the car. There were only two people in the car. What else could they do besides doing something intimate?
Andrew's hands that were hanging on the side of his body were still clenching very tightly that the veins on the back of his hands appeared, showing his anger.
"Don't worry, Young Master. Those people around Miss Carter are from ordinary families. They are now studying at a university in Coast City. They started volunteering two years ago. They are not being used by anyone, they won't cause any harm to Miss Carter," Simon said.
When Janell Joy first came into contact with these people, Andrew had already asked Simon to investigate their backgrounds, so as to eliminate all the potential threats towards Janell Joy.
The reason why he did this was partly because of his parents and it was also because of his own personal agenda.
Andrew slowly withdrew his gaze and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on these people in the future. We must also find out the details of the people they have contacted. None of them can be left behind."
"Yes, I will arrange it." Simon said respectfully.
Andrew suddenly opened the door, got out of the car, and then moved to the driver's seat. Before his assistant Simon could get into the car, he started the car and drove off immediately.
His car were heading towards the luxury car in front of him. It was getting closer and closer...
Nathaniel's bodyguard noticed the danger and took out the gun he was carrying. When he was ready to aim at Andrew, Andrew turned the steering wheel and dodged Nathaniel's car, about one meter away.
The two people who were kissing passionately in the car were interrupted by this little commotion. Janell Joy pushed Nathaniel away and said with anger, "B‘stard, you broke your promise."
They agreed that she would kiss him and he was not allowed to do anything. Just only when they started kissing, Nathaniel was already the dominating over her. He kissed her so hard that she couldn't do anything.
"You are playing with fire.” In the end, it was because this little girl was too naive. She didn't know it was almost impossible to extinguish a man's desire once it was provoked.
Janell Joy said angrily, "Don‘t kiss me again anymore."
Nathaniel chuckled and said, "Really?"
"Without my consent, you absolutely can't."Janell Joy said. She couldn't let him take any more advantage of her. If it went on like this, she would be "eaten" by him soon.
"My silly Janell!" Nathaniel stroked her head and laughed in a low voice, "You're so silly and lovely."
"Nathaniel Cooper, do not say that I'm silly!" He thought that she didn't know anything? No, she knew a lot. It was just that this stupid man thought she didn't.
“Nathaniel Cooper? Hmm?" Nathaniel snorted while emitting threatening vibes. He didn't like her calling his full name.
"Brother Lucas, it's getting late. Send me back home, or else my friends will be worried if they don't see me around." She knew what he was dissatisfied with, so she quickly changed the subject and smiled at him with her bright face.
"Send a message to them. Just sleep in the car tonight, I‘ll accompany you." The injury on her feet had not healed yet. How could he let her go back alone?
"Brother Lucas, you, you... You still want to stay in the car?“ Why did this man like to stay in the wilderness? Was it more exciting for a man to be in the wild?
Nathaniel prodded her head. “Janell, what's in your little head?"
”Tofu.“ He scolded her like this not so long ago, and she hadn't forgotten about it.
"You!" Nathaniel shook his head helplessly. He really didn't know what to do with this little girl, who was full of funny ideas.
“Brother Lucas..." Janell Joy snuggled up in Nathaniel's arms and into his chest. "You are not allowed to be fierce at me again in the future."
He said, "If you are obedient, no one will be fierce at you."
Janell Joy stared at him and said, "Obedient? I am a person, of course I have my own thoughts. Do you think you are raising a pet?“
Nathaniel stroked her head and said, "When you get back, I‘ll buy you one so you could raise it. With it, you won't feel so bored.“
"No!" Janell Joy refused immediately, and then quickly changed the topic. “Brother Lucas, how is Sister Serene's murder case going?"
"Don't talk about others when we are together. You just need to know that you've got me and I can handle these things." Nathaniel knew why Janell Joy changed the topic so he stopped talking about pets.
When Janell Joy was born, her father adopted a Pomeranian for her, and named it Mia... Mia had been by her side and accompanied her as she grew up. When Janell Joy was ten years old, Mia died of old age and illnesses.
After Mia died, Janell Joy was depressed for a very long time, and she didn't even want to talk to anybody.
Later, when her younger brother was born, she diverted her attention towards her brother and became lively again.
868
Mia was a pet that had been by Janell Joy Carter's side since birth, she treated Mia like it was her sister.
She had been raising Mia for ten years and she was not mentally prepared when it left her. How could she not be sad?
Since Mia passed away, Janell Joy had never had another pet again, and she didn't even allow anyone to mention Mia in front of her.
Now Nathaniel Cooper knew that it was not that Janell Joy didn't like pets anymore, but that she was afraid that history would repeat again, she was afraid of losing another pet.
"Brother Lucas, where is Sister Serene? How is she doing?" Janell Joy did not know why she was so worried about a person whom she had only met twice.
Perhaps she felt that no matter what, Serene Silas was still Nathaniel’s fiance. Now that she was entangled with Nathaniel, she felt a little guilty for Serene.
Last night, Janell Joy had a nightmare about Serene. In the dream, Serene looked unhappy.
Serene seemed to have fallen into a swamp. She was desperately waving her hands to call for help, but when Janell Joy rushed to save her, she was already drowned in the swamp.
In the middle of the night, Janell Joy broke out in a cold sweat because she was so scared of the dream.
Nathaniel said, “Lou said she was taken away by that man, he wouldn't be wrong."
Although Lou Mallory was a gangster, there was no need for him to deceive Nathaniel.
"But Brother Lucas, you haven't told me who that person is. Will he really take good care of Sister Serene?" If Janell Joy didn't clarify with him, she would still be worried.
"That person's name is Jackie Leves, he is the man that Serene has been thinking about all this while." Speaking of this, Nathaniel felt that it was enough information, there was no need for Janell Joy to know more.
"So it's him!" When Janell Joy heard the name, she recalled about the information on Jackie Leves that Blake White had given to her.
In the murder case a year ago, the former first lady died and the whole Leves family was exterminated. The son of the Leves family, Jackie was Serene's lover.
”You knew?" Nathaniel raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice.
"I heard of this person from Samantha, but I don't know much about him. I only know that he looks very handsome." At this point, Janell Joy didn't want Nathaniel to worry, so she had to use Samantha Lesley as a cover.
"No matter how handsome he is, he is someone else's man. Your man is right here.” Nathaniel was really petty. Not only was he jealous of Edwin Carter, he would be jealous of whoever Janell Joy praised.
"Yes, I know that! My dear Mr. President!" Brother Lucas was jealous, but she liked it when Brother Lucas get jealous.
He looked very cute like this!
He was so cute that he looked a little silly!
…………
On Misty Mountain.
Looking at the latest information in his hand, Jackie was so angry that his hands trembled a little... It turned out that the woman was pregnant with his child and had aborted the child.
Damn vicious woman! Was her heart made of stone?
That was his child, and that was her child too. How could she be so cruel to kill her own child herself?
"Young Master, there is also a statement from the doctor who aborted the child for Miss Silas. She can also prove that it was indeed Miss Silas who personally asked for the abortion. You can look at it here." Jackie's subordinate handed another document to him and took three steps back timidly.
"Get out!" Jackie shouted while he threw the file away. He stood up and strode out.
It had been two days since Serene woke up, but she didn't say a word at all. She couldn‘t even scold anyone.
When someone brought her food, she ate obediently. After that, she fell asleep and wrapped herself in the quilt. She did not ask anything, nor did she say anything. She was like a living dead person.
She hid herself in her own shell and did not allow anyone to come close to her nor had she opened herself up to anyone. This was the only way for her to continue living.
Bang!
Suddenly, the door was kicked open and slammed against the wall which made a loud noise.
Serene was scared out of her wits, but she was still curled up in the quilt and didn‘t even bother to see who came into the room.
Jackie came to Serene's bedside with his aggressive steps and looked down at the very thin Serene lying on the small bed. He ordered, "Serene, look up at me."
Humph...
He asked her to look up at him, did she have to look up at him?
It was just ridiculous!
He was the devil that buliied her, what right did he have?
Serene did not respond at all, which irritated Jackie even more. He stretched out his hand and removed the quilt away from her. "If you want to be deaf, I don't mind helping you."
Serene was still motionless as if she really couldn't hear him or hadn't felt his anger. Perhaps she was not afraid of being deaf at all.
"Serene Silas!" Jackie shouted as he reached out again and lifted Serene up.
He didn't use much strength but he could easily carry Serene. She was so thin that he couldn't feel her weight at all.
Just when he was distracted, Serene smiled at him. She had given up on herself, as if there was nothing worthy for her to be living in this world, it was a smile of reIief.
Suddenly, Jackie could hear Old Master Leonard's voice in his ears, "Child, if you want her to die, then feel free to torture her. If you still care about her and can't let her go, then treat her well. Don't let her suffer, or else you too will suffer yourself."
While Jackie looked at the skinny woman and thought of what Old Master Leonard had said, Jackie slowly loosened his grip on Serene's clothes and replaced her on the bed. "Not talking? Is this how you are protesting against me?" Jackie asked.
She still didn't bother to answer him!
"Not talking?" He wanted her to say something.
Jackie sat on the side of the bed, he picked up Serene and kissed her aggressively. He didn't let go of her until Serene moaned in return.
He rubbed her swollen lips and said coldly, “Serene, remember, now you are just a toy of mine. Without my permission, you don't even have the right to die."
Serene was kissed by him for a long time before she could catch her breath. Her pale face finally turned red too.
She glanced at him coldly and immediately turned her head away. Not only did she ignore him, but she also applied the three-no‘s policy against this devilish man.
As long as he was no longer interested in her, maybe he would succumb to his conscience and let her go. Although Serene knew that it was almost impossible, but she wouldn't lose hope.
However, when Jackie found that her face was ruddy, he would not let her go easily. He grabbed her head and said, "Serene, don't act like you're all innocent. Your body's reaction is telling me that you are enjoying this."
Didn‘t she abort his child?
Then he would make her carry his child again so that she would never be able to get out of his control ever.
869
Serene Silas turned her head and bit Jackie Leves' hand. She bit it so hard that her teeth sank into the flesh of his palm and blood gushed out.
She looked at him furiously. Her eyes were like Xrays as if they were going to penetrate his body. "Get out! Don‘t let me see you again!"
Serene released his hand and spat out a mouthful of blood as she turned her head to the side. Her mouth was full of his blood, which made her feel extremely disgusted.
"You don't want to see me? Do you think this is something you can control?" Jackie smiled coldly, like a demon from hell.
His smile made Serene tremble, but she still managed to straighten her thin body and looked at him coldly. "People like you who wear masks and don't even dare to show their true colours are only fit to live in hell."
People who wear masks and don't even dare to show their true faces are only fit to live in cold hell... She was right, this whole year, his days were worse than living in hell.
But she knew who exterminated the Leves family, who destroyed his face, and made him forget what he originally looked like. He could only hide under this mask and live in purgatory.
It was not until Serene had mentioned about this, the blood for revenge in Jackie's body was ignited. He was being such a bully towards her and said "Then let me, a person who only deserves to live in the cold hell, play with you.“
"Get out of my way! Don't touch me! You animal! Beast! You will die a terrible death!" Like always, no matter how hard Serene struggled and resisted, she could never change her fate.
Here, in this strange place, this man was the king, a master who no one dared to disobey.
What about her?
She was like a piece of meat on the chopping board. He could do whatever he wanted to her, and she could do nothing to stop him.
Just when Serene thought that the world was going to perish, the man finally left her.
He tidied his messy sleeves while he looked down at her and said "Serene, remember, you are just a toy. Don't act like you are still the lady of the Silas
After leaving behind these cold words and taking a cold glance at her who was almost naked, he turned around and strode away.
“Young Master." Nina greeted him as soon as he walked out of the door. It seemed like she had been waiting outside for a long time.
"What's the matter?" Jackie kept walking as he asked.
Nina immediately followed up. "About Miss Silas' murder case, the Silas family has already helped her to clear her name."
Jackie sneered and said, "Old Mr. Silas really cares about his granddaughter. She killed the grandson of the Silas family, and he could still help her to clear her name. This kind of love is unparalleled."
Nina hesitated and said, "Then we...”
Jackie halted and looked back at Serene's room door. "Don't worry about anything else. Go and look after the woman in the room. If anything happens to her, you are responsible."
”Yes." Nina took the order and looked at the door.
The respectful look in her eyes suddenly became fierce, as if the person in the room was her sworn enemy.
It was daytime, but Serene couldn't see anything. It was so dark. She had fell into this dark world and couldn't get out of it no matter what.
"Jackie, where are you? I'm so scared. Can you please save me?" Knowing that she had already been defiled, she shouldn’t be fantasizing about Jackie.
But he was the only person she could trust and rely on!
Except for Jackie, she couldn't think of anyone else who could save her from this hellish place.
"Jackie, will you hate me?" Jackie loved her so much and cared for her. He would not hate her, but she couldn't face him again.
Jackie! Jackie! Jackie!
She repeatedly called his name in her heart, as if this could make her feel a little bit of warmth and so that she could see the light again.
In the darkness, Serene suddenly felt a heart wrenching pain, which made her wake up from the darkness.
She opened her eyes and saw Nina piercing a huge needle into her body.
She struggled and asked, "What are you doing?"
She wanted to push Nina away, but the woman was very strong. She held Serene's hand but Serene had no strength to resist.
Nina injected some drugs into Serene's body, pulled out the needle and placed it on the side table. Then she opened a medicine bottle and forced a few pills into Serene's mouth. "Eat it."
Serene refused to open her mouth. As soon as Nina stuffed the medicine into her mouth, she immediately spat it out. She grabbed the used needle from the side table and stabbed Nina.
Although she was seriously injured, weak and couldn't fight against that devilish man, it didn't mean that she, Serene, would allow anyone else to bully her without resisting at all.
Serene stabbed Nina's arm with the needle and shouted, “Get out! Get away from me, or I'll kill you!"
Nina was in pain and wanted to fight back, but Serene did not slow down. She raised her hand and stabbed the needle into the center of Nina's palm.
Nina took two steps back in pain.
She knew very well that this matter had to be settled as soon as possible. Otherwise, if her master finds out, she would be in deep trouble.
She adjusted her emotions and tried as much as possible to speak in a more relaxed tone. "Miss Silas, I did this for your own good. Don't be ungrateful."
For her own good? Serene really wanted to spit on her.
She was injected with an unknown drug and fed with unidentified pills. This was for her own good? Did this woman think that Serene was an idiot?
Nina added, "Miss Silas, is it possible that you have fallen for my Young Master and want to give birth to a child for him?"
"Bullshit!" Serene said in agitation.
She wanted that man to die. How could she fall in love with him? It was even more impossible for her to give birth to his child.
In this life, she only wanted to give birth to a child for Jackie, as for others, don't even think about it. A child?
Thinking of the child... Serene's face suddenly turned pale, so pale that it was almost transparent.
That demon had forced her several times into intercourse, and every time it was... and recently it seemed to be her ovulation period, so she was very likely to get pregnant.
No! No! She could never be pregnant with that man's child!
Serene's reaction caught Nina's eyes. She knew that the opportunity had come and said, "This bottle is filled with birth control pills. It was my Young Master who asked me to give it to you. You'd better take it obediently. Otherwise, even if you are pregnant, my Young Master will not let you give birth to the child. At that time, it will be you who will suffer."
”Birth control pills?" Even though the bottle was not filled with birth control pills, Serene could not calm down and think properly.
She quickly threw away the syringe and grabbed the medicine bottle. Without looking at its description, she poured a handful of the medicine and stuffed it into her mouth.
870
At this moment, there was only one thought in Serene Silas' mind, she must not be pregnant with the devil's child.
As long as she is not pregnant with the devil's child, she would eat anything. Whether she could survive or not was not her priority.
"Miss Silas, it's good that you understand." Nina handed her a glass of water. The water was still steaming, so it should be very hot. However, Serene couldn't care any lesser as she swallowed the pills with the piping hot water.
The boiling hot water scalded Serene‘s throat, she didn't spit it out but forced herself to swallow it.
She would never allow herself to be pregnant with that devil's child!
Nina took the medicine bottle that was left in Serene's hand and put it back into her pocket. "Miss Silas, as long as you know what you should and should not do, then you won't suffer that much. I will prepare the birth control pills for you in the future. Just take good care of my Young Master."
Only when her hand was empty, Serene had came back to her senses and stared at a comer of the room with her dull eyes. She suddenly felt that something was funny and even laughed out loud.
After all, Serene was born into a well-known family. These years, she was a well educated woman who graduated from a renowned university. She used to be loved by her parents and her beloved man.
What about now? What on earth was she now?
Perhaps in the eyes of these people, she was not even a thing, she thought.
Clap!
Nina had just returned to the office. Before she could see clearly what was going on, she was slapped right in the face.
"Young, Young Master...“ As soon she realized who hit her and saw the man who were sitting in the room, Nina knelt down onto the ground. "I, l...”
She wanted to explain, but she was too scared that her whole body trembled. She was so frightened that she didn't know how to explain.
"Nina, who gave you the courage to mess with the Young Master's woman?" The man beside Jackie Leves, Daryl Leves, asked.
Daryl grew up in the Leves family and had been following Jackie around since then. When the Leves Family was exterminated, only the two of them and Nina survived.
Although he hated Serene and the Silas family, he was more loyal to his master. Without his master's order, he would not dare to touch Serene.
At this moment, he dealt with Nina on behalf of his master. On one hand, it was to punish Nina for acting her own way, and on the other hand, he wanted to save Nina's life.
He knew how hard he slapped Nina, and that slap would at most injure her. If it was his master who punished her, Nina wouldn't survive.
Nina knelt on the ground and said with fear, “Young Master, I... I did this for you. That woman of the Silas family betrayed you and had caused so many people in the Leves family to die. She doesn't deserve to give birth to your child."
"She doesn't deserve it!" Jackie got up and walked gracefully to Nina's side. "Then tell me, if she doesn't deserve it, then who does?"
Nina was so frightened that she did not dare to look up at Jackie's face. Before she could utter a word, she would bit her own tongue.
"Young Master!" Daryl knelt on the ground and said, “Young Master, Nina is still young and she doesn't know how serious the matter is. Please forgive her this time for the sake of our loyalty to the Leves family. She will never do it ever again."
Daryl quickly nudged Nina with his elbow and told her to admit her mistake, so that she would stop agitating their master.
They had been by their master's side all this while. They knew clearly how much their master cared for the woman of the Silas family.
Even if the woman had caused so much trouble for the Silas family and even if their master had said that he would kill the woman personally, the master couldn't bring himself to do so when the woman was put before him.
When that woman shed tears, their master felt sympathy for her. That woman was a typical femme fatale.
But the master cared about her and was worried about her. They, as subordinates, therefore couldn't do anything to that woman.
Nina started sobbing out of fear, but she still hasn't admitted her mistake. "Young Master, it's my fault to disobey your order, but I don't think I did anything wrong. The death of our Master and Madam Leves has a lot to do with that woman from the Silas family. If she gives birth to your child, they would not rest in peace."
At this moment, Daryl wanted nothing more than to cover Nina's mouth. Didn't she know that their master could end her life in the matter of seconds when he was angry?
One year ago, on a pitch-black night, the Leves family was sleeping soundly. Someone had set off a huge fire and burned the entire Leves' residence.
That night, the firefighters arrived only when the fire had burnt through the whole house. By then, almost all of the Leves family members were burnt to death. Only the three of them managed to escape.
A year ago. the police closed the case by concluding that it was a short-circuit in the Leves house, which leads to the big fire. The Leves family slept too soundly and did not realize it in time, and it was already too late when the fire was brought to their attention.
Following Jackie's investigation, he learned that it was not that the Leves family had slept too soundly or that there was a short circuit. Someone had deliberately drugged them with sleeping pills, and set the house on fire. That was the reason why the fire exterminated the whole Leves family.
And it was the Silas family who did all this, and it was the Silas family who set the fire.
The person who made the Leves family fall into deep sleep with the sleeping pills could only be Serene, the woman of the Silas family.
Jackie remembered clearly what he had went through on the day of the Leves family's destruction.
On that day, Serene volunteered to stay to have dinner with them. Before dinner, she was busy preparing dinner for them.
Jackie felt sorry for her and held her in his arms. He wouldn't let her go into the kitchen. "Serene, let the servants do it. Don't tire yourself out."
She poked his chest with a smile and said, "I will become the daughter-in-law of the Leves family in the future. Let me adapt to the life at my future home first."
At that time, after listening to her words, he was as happy as a fool and spun around a few times while he carried her. "Okay, wait for me!"
She smiled and said, "For what?“
He kissed her and said, “I will soon make you Mrs. Leves."
Mrs. Leves?
Now that he thought about it, she had never cared about being called "Mrs. Leves".
Everything she had done including when she agreed to his pursuit, was just to help the Silas family destroy the Leves family.
What an evil woman!
In order to help the Silas family destroy the Leves family, she deceived everyone. Perhaps she had even managed to fool herself.
"Young Master, Nina is right. Please consider the dozen lives of the Leves family that were burnt alive." At this time, Daryl was not willing to tolerate Jackie‘s foolishness in deceiving himself.
All the evidences of the murder of the Leves family were all pointed to Serene. It was only Serene that could drug their food with sleeping pills.
He knew that that woman was the murderer, why should he defend her like their master did?
Most of the time, Daryl wished that he could just stab that woman to death for his master.
One was his subordinate who had gone through thick and thin with him, and the other was a woman who had betrayed him. Jackie would definitely side with the former.
"Leave." Finally, Jackie breathed a sigh of relief and as they got up and walked to the door, he added, "If this happens again, i will not let you off easily."
