Chapter 121

He thought that was all because I had not not trusted him?!I answered frustratedly, “I heard you say that loud and clear, from your own mouth and you still want me to trust you? Tell me then, will you marry her as you promised?”From the beginning, I had not asked who the woman was. I did not want to lose that badly and I wanted to have fought with him till it had no end!Dixon was stunned, then suddenly said, “I’m sorry, I can’t tell you who she is but I have my own reasons.”He tried to brush me off by saying he had his own reasons!Well done Dixon!I wanted to push him away, he softly said, “Trust me, I won’t betray you!”This sentence was perfunctory.Also full of himself!“F*ck you!” I said.I could not control my temper, I could not have cared less about Dixon and gave him a kick.He let go and took a step back, his face was extremely ugly now, but he was still looking at me calmly.I had however regretted what I did, but it had not been more painful than his betraya

Chapter 122

I never thought Lance would call me at a time like this. Neither did I expect that he would ask me where I was.Did he find out that Dixon and I fought? I wiped my tears, but before I had the chance to speak, Lance answered my question.“Dixon told Loraine about what happened between you and him. He also told me about it earlier…”It seemed like he heard me holding back my tears. He paused and asked gently, “Are you crying?”I hurriedly hung up the call and went to my car. Initially, I thought of returning to the Shaw villa, but my mind quickly filled up with memories of Dixon from the past two days. My heart was aching.Suddenly, my phone rang again. It was Lance. When I needed someone the most, Lance would still call me persistently even if I hung up the phone on him. What I lacked the most was this feeling of warmth and companionship. I really wanted to accept his apology, but in my heart, I knew I could not be involved with him anymore.It felt like I was treating him as a ba

Chapter 123

”Lance, what have you been up to these years?” I tried to ask peacefully. I asked a few other questions without bringing up Dixon. I acted as if nothing had happened; neither did Lance ask me about what happened last night. He always tried his best to understand me.“Travelling across the globe, getting to know more people.”As I walked in front, he leaned sideways to let me through.“What would you like to eat? My treat,” I said as I walked past him.Both of us returned to our present selves—strangers, yet familiar — maintaining a certain distance.Lance brought me to a breakfast place nearby and ordered a coffee for me.“How’s your mother’s condition? I saw your dad leave for Nanjing yesterday.”“Yes, we’ll see how she recovers from last night’s surgery. There shouldn’t be any problems,” he replied indifferently.“Why didn’t you go to Nanjing?” I casually asked, not knowing how else to keep the conversation flowing.He thought about how to answer me and simply said, “I’ve on

Chapter 124

‘I’m the person who’s most unwilling to see you sad.’That was the most touching thing Lance had ever said to me. I was at a loss for words as I looked at him.Lance tilted his head. “No matter what happens, Dixon should be the person who should be the most careful not to hurt you. Have you ever thought that he might have his reasons?”Reasons… Dixon did mention he had his reasons. But he also said that if Cinque returned to Wu City, he would marry her.It did not matter whether he had his reasons or not. I shook my head.“I’m not clear with what happened between the two of you. I’m not forcing you to tell me,” he paused, “but I want to accompany you.”Upon hearing that, any resemblance of manners went out the window and I stood up. I stared at him in a panic.“Sorry, I have to leave,” I interjected.I hastily left the restaurant and went to my car. I drove to the office and asked my assistant to look for a new apartment for me. I refused to return to the Shaw villa.My mind w

“Do you want to leave already?” I asked curiously.He kept silent and tilted his head to look at me.“The scar on your face is hideous,” he spat.I was at a total loss for words. I did not wear a smidge of makeup since arriving in Tong City. The scar was indeed pronounced on my face. However, I never expected that someone would point out their disgust for it, let alone someone I just gave shelter to.“What is your name?” he asked abruptly, his voice sounding deep and hoarse.I barely knew him, so there was no need to tell him my name. But he had asked me, and it seemed rude to ignore.“Ysabel,” I lied.He furrowed his brows, satisfied with my answer.Outside the window, the river seemed calm, but it would be foolish of him to leave from there. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door again.The stranger stood beside the window with a serious look.“If you don’t leave with me, they will torture you,” he warned.“Who?” I asked, completely dumbfounded.He said these five words

Chapter 126

”I have matters to attend to in Tong City. I will contact you again.”I rejected Sean’s invitation. He felt that something was off, pausing for a moment.“Did I make you feel uncomfortable during your last visit?” He asked.“Nope,” I denied, looking down.“I don’t have any romantic feelings towards you, so please don’t be mistaken.”I was surprised by Sean being so direct.“You are my best friend, and there has to be some boundaries. Please don’t speculate anything,” he sighed.Was it possible that I was the only one who over thought this?“I’m not that much of a narcissist,” I snapped.“Alright, just give me a call if you need my help.”“Alright, I will,” I replied.I had planned to go back to the hotel after hanging up the call, but I saw a figure wandering around the entrance. It felt as if all the blood in my body rushed to my head.“How did you figure out that I was staying here?” I asked. I never expected Sean’s ex-girlfriend to come all the way here, let alone brin

Chapter 127

”Yes, Mr. Schick’s full name is Zachary Schick,” he clarified.I headed back to the bathroom after Yair left, continuing to wipe my body clean. After I freshened up, I went outside to ask the maid for a glass of warm water to wash down my medication.I felt much better after taking my medication. Shortly after, the maid came to deliver my meal.“Where is Mr. Schick?” I asked.“Mr. Schick is in his study room.”I thanked her for my meal and went back to my room. After eating a few spoonfuls, I became too full to eat another bite. I felt bored not having my handphone to play with.I put on the white shirt and went to the backyard. It was chilly outside, but still tolerable.The maid noticed me, passing me a black overcoat. It reached my ankles when I put it on, making me look petite when I was actually 172cm tall.Despite being tall with perfect body proportions, I am not as ugly as what Zachary said.The maid laughed when she saw the oversized coat on me. “This is Mr. Schick’

Chapter 128

Sean rarely ever alerted me of anything, but he gave me some rare advice since this had to do with Zachary.“Carol, Zachary is a strong-willed man who started off empty-handed. His tactics, his brutality, and cold-heartedness; I had never seen anything like it. I advise you not to get too close to him,” he warned, “unless you have a death wish.”Sean had spelled out my death had I been involved with Zachary any further.“How much do you know about him?” I asked, clenching my lips.The Zachary I met was cold-hearted but not as terrifying as Sean’s depiction. Besides, I was not that familiar with him.“I don’t know the Schick family well, but I heard many things from my dad,” he explained. “He claimed that the Schick family was a cruel clan. Zachary had a few brothers, but he had outlived them all. I heard it was because they had lost a deal, and the sons were… eliminated. As for what truly happened, I can’t really say.”“Was it a family conspiracy?” I asked in suspense.“No,” he

Chapter 129

”This has nothing to do with me. You shouldn’t be worrying about what I think of this situation. You should be thinking about Cinque instead… She will never let go of her grudge towards you.”Clifford’s words were expressing tremendous seriousness. “Did she tell you anything else when she called you?” I questioned.“She is a doctor now. She has weapons to deal with you,” Clifford explained. “Those were her words.”After I hung up the call, my mind was on overdrive. I could not comprehend what kind of weapon she would wield against me.It sounded like it could cost my life.I shook my head to clear my mind, avoiding the thought of what might happen. I would try my best to face whatever challenge Cinque threw at me, trying not to hurt her in the process.I went to the bathroom to take a shower. After I freshened up, I noticed the handphone that was on the safe, the exact same model as Zachary’s phone.It felt as if we were using matching phones as a couple. Assistant Yair mentione

Chapter 130

I initially wanted to name the person she had on her mind, but I stopped myself at the last second.“Lance will come to pick you up,” I mentioned.Loraine reeked of alcohol. She stayed silent in the car, looking rather cute and subservient while drunk.By the time Lance had arrived, she had fallen asleep.“Sorry for troubling you, Carol,” he frowned, seeing Loraine in that state.“Do you mind accompanying me to send her back to the Gregg villa?”The Gregg villa… Dixon did not live in the Gregg villa. The ride there would not be a problem.“Alright,” I promised.Since I did not drive, I sat behind in the passenger seat to look over Loraine. I prevented her from vomiting while Lance drove straight to the Gregg villa.Lance parked the car by the roadside, but he did not help Loraine into the house. Instead, he got down and called out for someone in the Gregg villa for help.The housekeeper was accompanied by two maids to help bring Loraine in.“Young Master Gregg, would you lik
