"Why isn't Madelyn here, Kevin?" Mya asked.Kevin replied with a hint of nonchalance, "Ms. Jent's downstairs, playing golf with Mr. Jardin. If you want to see her, go on down. Mr. Jardin said his company's taking care of the situation at the birthday party."Mya said, "Thanks for letting me know."Kevin nodded, "No problem."Luke called out, trying to make things right, "Mya..."Lifting her dress slightly, Mya shot him one last look, "I told you you'd face the consequences." She walked off, leaving a chattering crowd behind.Luke's family swarmed him, bombarding him with questions, "What went down, Luke? Why did Mya bolt? You know, our families had your back, helped with your college needs, and in return, you promised us a house.""Are you guys still getting hitched?""Man, Luke, I was waiting for a house before getting married. Now, without one, what do I do?""And these gems? They were supposed to be a safety net for my daughter's future. Luke, you better not bail on us."F

Seeing Mya, the faces of the group twisted in anger, "Mya! You did this!""Why are they cuffing us? Shouldn't it be her? What did we do?""Seriously. Officer, we're just regular people. We haven't done a thing. You sure you've got this right?"The police officer gave them a stern look, "Enough talking.""Ugh! All this is because of Mya and her sneaky friend. Just wait, Mya. When I'm out, you'll get what's coming."The officer, a tad flustered, held back the still-complaining woman, "If you want a shorter time behind bars, be quiet. You really shouldn't cross her.""What's so special about her anyway? Does she think she's richer than us?"Madelyn sighed, "Let's get out of here.""Okay."The noise died down as everyone was packed into the police cars."Mya, hold on!"A girl in a sparkly princess dress stopped Madelyn and Mya. Seeing the woman next to Mya, her eyes lit up with admiration. Wiping away her tears, she said, "It's because of you that my mom's in jail. I've just sta

"I'm going to marry you and make you my second wife. Are you scared?"It seemed like Zach was in a good mood today.Madelyn blurted out, "M-My dad just died not long ago, and you're here thinking about marriage? You've been in the Jent family for so many years; you should know that the family traditions prohibit us from having a wedding during the mourning period of three years."Madelyn tried to pull her hand away, but Zach did not allow that to happen. Instead, he held her hand even tighter and placed it on his thigh."I don't have that much patience to wait."Madelyn could only remain silent and stopped talking to him.However, she just could not stop herself from venting, "What benefit do you get from marrying me? I can't have your baby, and that child is also fake. You're only doing this on impulse, driven by your possessiveness. You can't stand the idea of someone that you want becoming someone else's. After some time, you'll just throw me away like I'm a piece of trash."

However, Zach had promised her that he would not harm anyone from the Arnold family.Why would he lie to her?With her limbs turning colder, Madelyn reluctantly contacted someone she did not want to deal with.The phone rang for a few seconds, and then it was connected."Are you looking for me?" Kai asked. He sounded very cautious.Madelyn panicked and quickly hung up the phone.Kai colluded with Zach, so Madelyn figured that she should not trust him as well.Suddenly, Madelyn thought about something. She zoomed in on those pictures and quickly recognized the location. They were all taken near the sea around Ventropolis.Madelyn had heard about a plane crash not long ago, but she had never expected Ethan to be on the plane.She immediately rushed out of the room with her phone as if she had lost her mind.She could not believe that Ethan's death was real.'Why would Zach kill him? He already has everything he wants!'Ethan has done nothing to him. Zach is nothing but a hear

The air in the luxurious private room of the nightclub was filled with the scent of alcohol and extravagance.A man and a woman were entwined on the sofa, immersed in lust. Then, the door of the private room was suddenly kicked open with a loud bang.A server tried to stop the intruder. "Sir, you can't go inside," he said.Cecilia had applied some aphrodisiac on her lips and accidentally consumed a small amount of it, making her half-conscious. As she heard the loud bang, she turned to the door. Before she could see who that was, the man on top of her was lifted off of her."How could you still have the mood to mess with another woman? Zach, you're so bold!" Kai swung his fist at Zach's face. It was so powerful that he almost fell to the ground. However, Kai grabbed him by the collar to stop him from falling. He could immediately tell that Zach was drugged upon looking at his condition; his body was burning hot.Cecilia quickly got dressed after seeing that Kai was about to take Z
