Chapter 171
As for Margaret, her face drained slightly of color.She had stepped forward earlier because she believed the Mercedes-Benz name would crush him instantly. But the fact that Rufus didn’t even blink much, the fact that he could still speak with that kind of cold arrogance made her scalp prickle.She wanted to pull her hair out in anger.“You!” Frank pointed. “Do you think you have the ability to face my father?”He hadn’t thought this man would be so bold as to even ask him to call his father here.“Call him here. If he dares to show his face, I’ll call my backing too. Let’s see if your father would dare to stand before him.”To Manager Rufus, he was certain he had the upper hand since his own backing was mysterious. This young man trying to ruin his plan would have to rethink, right?“Just wait and see...” Frank Allen pretended to be enraged and pulled out his phone. “Once my father gets here today, you’ll crawl on the floor and beg for mercy.”He moved to the side, pretending to ca

Serena was left speechless by Manager Rufus's sudden behavior.Just moments ago, he had been towering over them like an unmovable mountain, yet now he was on his knees, his forehead slamming against the floor with frantic thuds.She blinked in confusion.“What… what is happening?”Was this a different Manager Rufus?Nothing in the scene made sense.Why would a manager who had been roaring like a tiger suddenly throw himself to the ground like a terrified mouse?The onlookers were just as stunned as she was, and chatter spread through the restaurant with everyone having something to say.“Isn't Manager Rufus's backing great anymore?”“Maybe this young man's father actually has that kind of power?”“Hmph! Manager Rufus wasn't scared of him just now. Even Manager Rufus's backing is very mysterious in this Brooklyn Heights.”“Could it be that he fears Ms. DiLaurentis? He is kneeling before her, not that young man, Frank Allen.”“DiLaurentis? Hmph! What a joke...they're not that significan
Chapter 173
"Just accept my apology, Ms. DiLaurentis. If you don't, I'll continue again..." Manager Rufus lamented and made to continue, but she quickly stopped him."That's enough, please. You're forgiven for whatever you think you've done. I'm just begging that you forgive my mother too and give us a lower price to pay. She was wrong as well." Serena wouldn't take advantage of the situation to forget that her mother was wrong to cause a scene in a public restaurant like this.It was then that Margaret hurried over from the side, holding Frank Allen's arm tight as though he were her only son.She snorted coldly. "Hmph! Do you still dare to be bold? Now you're like a scared cat, huh?"Manager Rufus smiled bitterly and bowed respectfully. "I admit my wrongs. My restaurant will surely take responsibility for what happened to you yesterday. Once I get my phone, I'll start making phone calls to make sure we find those foreigners who dared to run away with your money..." He definitely wasn't respons

When Serena got outside with Richard, Frank Allen was seated on the hood of his Porsche and Margaret was wiping nonexistent sweat from his forehead.“Frank, I hope your throat didn’t hurt from talking too much just now.”“Does your back hurt? I’m good at massaging shoulders.”“Your hair looks ruffled. Do you have a comb? Let me help you.”“Won’t this sun be too harsh on your skin? Let’s not delay any longer.”She was basically treating him like a mother taking care of her sick son.“Mom, do you care to explain why you neglected Dad’s health again and took him out of the hospital?” Serena asked as she pushed Richard forward, a little angry. This was the reason she had left the office in a frenzy that morning. She was supposed to be making calls and arranging meetings with possible pharmaceuticals in Sorevia that could be their next supplier.Margaret pretended as though she didn’t hear and directly pulled her close. “Serena, Frank has proven himself capable today again. Hurry up and

Inside one of the SUVs, Serena sat quietly with her hands cuffed behind her, her eyes slowly scanning the faces of the men with her. These were not ordinarily dressed, off-duty cops, and she was only realizing it now. What's going on? The vehicle suddenly took a detour off the main road into a secluded area, and an alarm went off in her head immediately. “Where are you taking me? This isn't the way to the police station.” She turned to look around, but the men gave no response. Their expressions remained stoic and unreadable. The SUVs arrived at an abandoned high-rise building in no time, and Serena was pulled out. She looked up to see Officer Mark leading the way into the building, and she couldn't help but ask in a panic, “Are you kidnapping me?” She wanted to shout for help right then, but this was a secluded area and she might get into trouble with these burly-looking men with terrifying arms. No one answered her question, and she was brought into the building. The mome
Chapter 176
A few minutes later, Serena was held down on her knees by two burly men; standing behind her was Officer Mark with two double-edged blades. He ran the blades against each other, honing the edges like a butcher preparing to cut meat.Shrrr! Shrrr! Shrrr!"Don't do this—I'm begging you, don't do this. I really have nothing to do with this." Her eyes were red, swollen, and full of tears. She couldn't understand why they were so persistent in trying to brand her a victim. Something she wasn't.Even if she agreed and went ahead with the statement, wouldn't that ruin her reputation? She couldn't even tell anyone that she had slept with a stranger, let alone that she'd done anything stupid with Anthony Lancaster, the playboy of Brooklyn Heights.Wouldn't people look down on her and spit in disgust at her feet wherever she walked? Even the elders of the DiLaurentis family and her employees at the Medical Center would no longer show their faces to her. It was simply too embarrassing and

Elijah yawned loudly and stretched out his frame before saying lazily, "I think I'm too full to talk right now.""You!" Wilson wanted to lunge at him, but he restrained himself and said coldly, "Don't play games with me. You've had a fill of juice today and you promised to tell me everything.""Did I?" Elijah scratched the side of his head as though he were clueless."You're dead today!" Wilson could no longer hold himself and jerked him angrily by the collar."Fine. I'll tell you. You don't have to be violent with everything..." Elijah told him quietly, and he was let go."Don't waste my time. Hurry up and tell me," Wilson barked impatiently.Elijah nodded and began, "It's this way—"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"Excuse me." He pulled out his old phone. Since he had only a few contacts, the incoming call must be important.The moment he saw the incoming call from the contact saved as 'Wifey', his eyes brightened and he relaxed further into the chair.Wilson clenched his fist at Elijah, who was

Elijah took the stairs to Serena’s office, and when he got there she was not in the office. Could this mean his mother-in-law wasn't bluffing or merely looking for an opportunity to ridicule him?“You! Who permitted you to enter the CEO’s office? Do you want to die?!” Secretary Lisa came charging from behind with a feisty expression.Elijah shut the door and turned to face her. He said calmly, “Where is my wife?”Lisa’s face turned pale for a second, but she regained her composure and shouted, “You! How dare you?!” She didn’t think he would be brazen enough to call the CEO his wife at the Medical Center.“Where did she go?” he asked, ignoring her reaction.Lisa scoffed. “Who do you think you are to ask about the CEO’s whereabouts?” Her voice dropped to a whisper as though she didn’t want anyone to hear what she was saying. “Don’t think I don’t know that you’re only a husband in name and that she doesn’t regard you as her husband. Is that how you deceived Director Wilson?” There w

An Uber vehicle stopped at West Crest Restaurant, and Elijah Langston hurried out to see Richard by the side of the road. His skin had turned red under the scorching sun, but he was comfortably seated in his wheelchair."Son-in-law, you are here." Richard's expression brightened.Elijah pushed him into the shade and asked quickly, "Where is Serena?"Richard sighed deeply. "She was arrested by some weird-looking people for assaulting Anthony Lancaster. Trust me, they don't look like cops."This caused Elijah's frown to deepen, but he wasn't quick to start speculating. He simply asked, "Where is Mom?"Richard had been left under the sun by the roadside with his wheelchair locked in place. He should be in the hospital, recovering from the liver repair and receiving treatment, not running around."She took Frank Allen to the hospital," Richard told him.Elijah's eyes turned slightly dim. "Frank Allen...?" What was that scammer doing here with Serena and her parent?"He was hurt by the
Chapter 180
"She passed out again."Back at the high-rise building, Serena lay slumped on the floor, her back marked with dozens of sharp cuts, her body limp. Her back was completely covered in blood and disfigured beyond imagination.Officer Mark stepped back, his blade still slick with crimson and his expression unchanged.The two burly men advanced cautiously, each holding a pair of metal prongs charged with electricity.Serena’s eyes fluttered open as a jolt shot through her body. Her muscles convulsed violently, and she gasped, coming back to consciousness.The men immediately stepped back, letting her collapse to the floor.She lay there, weak and trembling, utterly unable to speak or lift a finger. From a distance, anyone who glanced at her might have mistaken her for dead.Officer Mark’s voice was low but audible, directed toward Andrew. “This isn’t stubbornness anymore. If we continue like this, she’ll die.”Andrew, who had just finished the last of his chips, let out a deep sigh and
