Nicholas's eyes burned with rage and hostility, like a wolf about to pounce on its prey."Who do you think you are? You're nothing more than a spoiled brat abusing your family's power to act lawlessly. Even if I have nothing left, I will never submit to you!" Josephine's voice was firm as she glared at Nicholas, her unyielding determination evident. Her eyes blazed with defiance.Embarrassed and furious, Nicholas slammed the table and roared, "Josephine, don't push your luck!""Mr. Brooks, if you're unwilling to cooperate, please leave!" Josephine's voice was icy, her gaze sharp and resolute. Her stunning features were tinged with a faint flush of anger, which only heightened her striking beauty."Are you driving me out?"

Elena was struck so hard that her head whipped to the side, and a bright red handprint instantly bloomed on her cheek. She covered her face with one hand, tears brimming in her eyes, but she didn't dare cry out loud."I didn't expect him to do that!" Elena said, her voice full of grievance.Aaron's eyes burned with anger as he pointed at her and scolded, "Shut the hell up! The Brooks family is coming after us now. What are we supposed to do?""I already met the Brooks family and told them about Cyrus, hoping it would calm their anger," Elena explained softly, her tone almost pleading."You think that's going to fix this, huh? The Brooks family isn't that easy to deal with!" Aaron snapped, pacing in the room, his anxiety written all over his face.At that moment, Josephine burst out of the room. Seeing her mother's reddened cheek, she shouted angrily, "Grandpa, how could you hit my mom?"Aaron turned his glare on Josephine. "This is all your fault! It wa

"Josephine, don't pretend to care about me. I know why you're here today. Isn't it to sell me out to the Brooks family in exchange for the Thompson family's safety?" Cyrus's voice was thick with anger and despair, each word forced out through gritted teeth.Josephine's body trembled slightly, a flicker of panic crossing her face. She quickly tried to compose herself and replied, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I do such a thing?""Hmph! Still trying to deny it, huh?" Cyrus let out a cold snort. "I know exactly what's going on in your mind. The Thompson family is in crisis, and you're planning to sacrifice me to secure the Brooks family's protection. Don't think you can fool me!"Josephine bit her lip, a trace of guilt flashing in her eyes, but she stubbornly retorted, "Cyrus, is that how you see me?

"No! Jeremy, save me!" Sarah cried hoarsely, her body trembling violently as tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.But at that moment, Jeremy could barely protect himself. He was being beaten mercilessly by the group of beggars, his body battered and bruised. His breathing was shallow, as if he were holding onto his last thread of life.Pip continued his assault while Sarah could only cry and plead, "It stinks! Get away! Get off me! Pull it out now!"Like a lustful beast, Pip showed no signs of stopping, relentlessly thrusting. Sarah struggled desperately to escape him, but her efforts were in vain."Sarah!" Jeremy roared, his voice erupting from the depths of his soul, filled with uncontainable rage. From deep within, he summoned immense strength, breaking free from the beggars pinning him down.

Cyrus tightly embraced Violet's slender waist. The soft, warm sensation sent a shiver through him as he pressed his body against hers, feeling her slight trembling."It's poking me again!" Violet pouted, her expression a mix of cuteness and shy annoyance. Her flushed cheeks were like cherries, which made her look irresistibly tempting.Violet looked stunning that evening. Her long hair cascaded down her shoulders, carrying an alluring fragrance. Her face was elegantly made up.
