The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee By Vera Whitehead Chapter 500


Chapter 500 You’re Loved 

Ziana slapped herself on the forehead hard.

How could she be so foolish!

“You’re absolutely right,” she muttered with a heavy heart.

Seeing her sudden realization, Boris chuckled softly. “Do you believe me now?”

Ziana nodded solemnly.

Indeed, whenever it involved Boris, her mind turned into mush.

It had been many days since Ziana last saw Boris, and when Ziana finally met him, she didn’t think much of it, especially after finding out that Boris had been in contact with Mr. Collins.

The kidnapping case five years ago had been a life-changing event for her. She wished she could tear Mr. Collins apart, limb by limb. At that moment, she lost her rationality.

Unexpectedly, as she followed that fake Boris into the private room, she heard shocking revelations that instantly

overwhelmed her emotions.

It was only after watching Boris’ footage that she regained her composure.

Now, upon careful reflection… there were flaws everywhere in tonight’s incident at the Elegant Poetry Hotel.

That Boris had never laid a hand on her before.

At the time, she thought Boris still had some feelings for her. But now, thinking back, when had Boris ever acted so timidly?

As a proud and domineering man, he was used to being assertive and arrogant. Even when he was wrong, he would stand his ground with confidence.

His favorite thing to do was to subdue Ziana with force, using his physical advantage to tame Ziana before reasoning with her.

But tonight, that fake Boris even leaned against the table and circled around her!

“Smack!”

She slapped herself on the forehead again and complained, “I’m such a fool in love!”

“Enough.” Boris grabbed her hand. “Your concern has made you confused, but there’s nothing wrong with being in love.”

She acted quickly and slapped her forehead twice more. Boris couldn’t help but find it amusing and exasperating.

Boris brought her hand to his lips and kissed it. “Love me, and I swear I’ll never let you lose.”

Ziana looked into his deep, dark eyes and pursed her lips. she pulled her hand away. “I’m leaving.”

“No, you’re not.” Boris asserted dominantly, holding her tightly. “You came to my place in the middle of the night, scolded me, and now that I haven’t figured anything out, you want to leave? That’s not how it works. Tell me, what really happened tonight at the Elegant Poetry Hotel? What did the fake Boris say to you?”

Ziana pressed her lips together and remained silent.

Boris grew irritated by her behavior. Boris gripped her face with his large hand, forcing her to face him. “Ziana, I’m asking you a question.”

“It’s none of your business. We’ve already broken up,” she deflected. “Do I need to remind you? Wasn’t it me who dumped you?”

Boris laughed, “Do you really think I’m a fool? Ziana, unlike you, when it comes to matters of the heart, my intelligence doesn’t disappear. On the contrary, I become even more clear-headed and calm than usual. When you came rushing over today, crying and asking if I ever loved you, I just knew that you still love me.”

“Don’t flatter yourself.” Ziana insisted stubbornly. “Boris, don’t fool yourself.”

Boris locked his eagle-like gaze on her, his eyes shining with sharpness and depth. “What is your purpose in getting close to Edison?”

Ziana’s heart was suddenly struck Little did she know that what would leave her even more astonished was yet to come.

“Let me take a guess,” he whispered, his palm resting behind her slender waist, gently rubbing back and forth with his fingertips. “Is it to break the curse that’s been placed upon you?”

Ziana couldn’t help but be taken aback.

Was her acting that bad?

As if he could hear her thoughts, Boris said, “It’s not your acting; you really had me fooled. Until tonight, you had convinced me you were cruel because of the curse. But you just cried asking if I loved you, so clearly you were pretending.”

”I..”

“If you were cursed, you would only care about Edison, and you wouldn’t care if I loved you.” Boris refused to let her deny it. “Did you hide this from me thinking I wouldn’t agree with your plan?”

Though it seemed like an ordinary statement, it was actually a bait deliberately thrown by him.

Compared to Boris, Ziana was completely outmatched in shrewdness.

Ziana had no defenses against Boris, and unsurprisingly, she took the bait. “Isn’t that right? Five years ago, on that little island, you lost your eyes protecting me. Over a year ago, because of the Lewis family’s threats, you were entangled in their affairs, forcing me to divorce you. You always make decisions on my behalf, thinking it’s what’s best for me!”

“You are mine, and protecting you is my duty as a man and a husband,” Boris furrowed his brow, speaking with profound sincerity. “Just be happy and safe. I’ll shield you from all harm. As long as I live, nothing will hurt you.”

He stroked her hair. “You’re loved. Let me handle everything, okay?”

“No!” Ziana shook her head, her voice carrying a trace of tears. “You are my man, and protecting you is also my duty as a wife. Even if I can’t protect you, I still want to support you through hard times, to give you strength and a shoulder to lean on.”

Though tears filled her eyes, her expression was stubborn.

“As your wife, I should value both love and righteousness along with you, just as friends and brothers value loyalty. Sharing joys and sorrows, facing challenges together, rather than… becoming a burden to you, making you constantly worry about how to shelter me.”

“Boris, do you understand? Whether bitter or sweet, I want to share it with the one I love.”

Boris gazed at Ziana, moved and shaken.

The girl from his memories, who was only sixteen, had grown up.

That girl had become the woman he adored.

Strong, brave, unwaveringly loyal, and unafraid of hardship.

His throat tightened, and for what felt like an eternity, he couldn’t find the words to speak. Instead, he pulled Ziana towards him, holding her tightly in his embrace.

Ziana rested against his chest, listening to the strong rhythm of his heartbeat, and continued, “I don’t want you to always sacrifice for me. Even if you’re willing to do so, I don’t want that, and I certainly don’t want to be kept in the dark. I’m touched but pained seeing you suffer so. Facing life together, we can go farther.”

Boris understood her meaning, but how could he bear it?

“It’s too dangerous.” He choked back tears. “I can’t risk you. Leave the danger to me, okay?”

The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee By Vera Whitehead Chapter 491-499

Chapter 491 Losing All Chips 

At eight o’clock in the evening.

A modified Hummer slowly stopped in front of the Fortune Casino.

The entire casino was bright. It looked like a magnificent palace in the night.

Many luxury cars gathered in front of the gate, and the crowd was bustling.

After Nell stopped the car, he trotted to the back seat and opened the door. “Mr. Lewis. Mr. Sam.”

Boris wore a dark black suit with a shirt of the same color inside. His top button was unbuttoned, revealing his delicate and sexy Adam’s apple.

His eyes were cold, and Boris raised his head casually, looking at the LED screen.

Biber followed Boris’ gaze and chuckled. “The casino business in Galia is in full swing. As the largest casino in Oia County, there are various ways to play it. Anything can be bet here, money, organs, and human. Kerry invites us to meet here. I am afraid the negotiations tonight will not go well.”

Boris replied in a deep voice, “Yes.”

Kerry was Mr. Collins’ subordinate. Mr. Collins started his business as a gangster before, but later he made a name for himself because of his cruelty.

They were well-known in the local area. And Kerry was Mr. Collins’ henchman, so Kerry was something.

Biber cautiously reminded Boris. “Be careful. You must prevent him from attacking. But our people have arrived.”

Boris chuckled lightly. “Let’s go in.”

Boris lowered his eyes and rolled his sleeves, striding into the casino.

The interior of the casino was decorated in the medieval royal style. It was luxurious and extravagant.

The white Roman columns were majestic and solemn, and the crystal chandeliers were dazzling and dizzying.

There were many floors in the entire casino. They only saw the spiraling stairs, and the end of this casino could not be seen at a glance.

Although Nell worked for Boris and experienced a lot, Nell still couldn’t help exclaiming, “Wow.”

Nell had never seen such a big casino!

It was tremendous!

Boris glanced at him. “You are such a hick.”

The corner of Nell’s mouth twitched, and he secretly rolled his eyes.

Boris had been in a bad mood since leaving the hotel in the early morning. Boris took the opportunity to vent his anger on Nell.

It was estimated that Boris and Mrs. Lewis had a quarrel, and Boris did not dare to be cruel to Mrs.

Lewis but only dared to bully Nell, a dutiful worker!

Nell suffered a lot!

At this moment, a waiter wearing a blue hat walked up to them. “Guys, Mr. Wood asked me to welcome you when you entered.”

Biber raised his chin. “Lead the way.”

The waiter ushered them into a private room.

There was a giant turntable in the private room, and people sat around the giant turntable. When they came in, everyone looked over.

Kerry laughed. “Everyone, let me introduce you. They are Mr. Lewis and Mr. Sam. They are my guests.

“Since you are guests. You can sit down and play together.” Someone greeted them.

Boris and Biber looked at each other and sat on the empty seats.

Kerry still smiled. “Mr. Lewis, I’m embarrassed to invite you here for the first time. But I have to have fun before talking about serious business. After having fun, it’s quite easy for me to talk about business. Please forgive me. Since you are here, play with me.”

Kerry looked very rough, but he wore a light gray robe. And he said in a hoarse voice like a bandit.

His overall look was funny.

Boris smiled, and the frost on his face seemed to melt a little.

Boris casually told a waiter. “Give Mr. Wood two million dollars chips.”

Kerry raised his eyebrows with joy. “Mr. Lewis, you are generous! Some of you may have heard of Mr. Lewis, and others may not. I have heard of Mr. Lewis five years ago and have always wanted to meet him. You may not know that five years ago, Mr. Lewis could take out twenty billion dollars casually without blinking an eye!”

There was an uproar in the crowd.

Although they came here to play, they all came from wealthy families.

But it was twenty billion dollars!

And it was five years ago!

Everyone looked at Boris with a hint of flattering.

Someone asked curiously, “Mr. Lewis, may I ask what you do?”

Immediately someone answered, “You don’t even know about this? He is the president of the Lewis Company!”

“Oh! Lewis Company is so powerful?”

“It is also one of the top ten consortiums in the world, so it is not surprising that it could take out twenty billion dollars!”

Others were stunned.

Everyone was surprised and looked at Boris.

Boris smiled lightly and didn’t care about their questions. He looked at Kerry and said, “The most important thing is to have fun.”

Then Boris made a gesture of invitation to Kerry. “Please, let’s play together.”

Kerry laughed boldly. “Haha! Alright! Then I’ll have fun!”

After learning Boris was wealthy, everyone at the table wanted to get his fortune.

However, they soon realized they were wrong.

In black clothes and trousers, Boris sat there gracefully and calmly, winning all their chips.

The chips in front of Boris were piled up as high as a hill!

But Boris was still the same, with cold brows and eyes, showing no emotion.

In two hours, the original table of twenty people lost all their chips, leaving only Boris and Kerry in the end.

Kerry praised Boris. “Mr. Lewis, it turns out you are good at gambling! I wonder who will win all the chips?”

“If you want to win, I’ll let you win.” Boris smiled casually.

Boris raised his eyes to look at him. His blue pupils and the clear whites were distinct.

After hearing this, Kerry was unhappy.

He said with a bit of arrogance and sarcasm, “Mr. Lewis, does this mean you didn’t show your full ability before?”

“You are right,” Boris replied.

Kerry laughed heartily. “Fine. Mr. Lewis, I like people as crazy as you! Then this time, please show all your ability. I want to see your true skills! Gambling in a casino is all about luck. I don’t believe some people can manipulate the winning or losing! Mr. Lewis, please don’t be merciful.”

Boris smiled. “If I beat you, would you still have fun?”

“How do you say that you are sure to beat me?” Kerry put his big palm on the table and tapped. “They will tell you I am also a famous gambler. If you want to beat me, it’s not easy. I haven’t met a real opponent in these years. If you can beat me, that will be the real fun!”

Turning to the croupier, disapprovingly tilting his head, Boris said, “Let’s deal the cards.”

Seeing Boris like this, Kerry sneered in his heart and thought Boris was a drama king.

Kerry couldn’t wait to slap him in the face in front of so many people!

However, an hour later.

“Let’s play again!” Kerry rolled up his sleeves, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and told the croupier with a blushing face. “Deal the cards!’

The waiter tremblingly reminded. “Mr. Wood, you have lost all your chips!

Chapter 492 Replace Mr. Collins 

“If I lose all, go and get another 200 thousand dollars!” Kerry cursed anxiously, “I don’t believe I will lose in the next round! Go!”

The waiter felt like weeping but had no tears. “Mr. Wood… all your chips have been lost!” he stammered.

“What?” Kerry roared in disbelief, “I lost all my chips?”

He had deposited at least two million dollars in Fortune Casino!

The waiter’s legs went limp after being yelled at, and he collapsed to the ground. “It’s all… gone…”

Kerry felt his heart broken but still anger took hold of him.

He suddenly turned his head to look at Boris, his eyes burning with anger.

Boris said, raising his brows slightly, “Mr. Wood, looks like you have run out of bargaining chips.

Have you had enough fun?”

“I haven’t!” Kerry grabbed the woman behind him and pressed her head on the gaming table. “She is the bet!”

Boris rubbed his fingers and asked, “Do you still want to play?”

“Yes!” Kerry snorted, “I don’t believe I can’t win!”

He played twelve games with Boris alone, and Boris won all of them!

Kerry didn’t believe he had such good luck!

“It seems that you won’t give up until you win,” Boris said in a cold voice, his patience running out.

He rubbed his eyebrows, waved his hand at the croupier, and then signaled the waiter to push out all the chips.

There were 12 million dollars!

It was the result of his one night battle!

“One last round.” Boris said in low spirits, “After that, let’s talk about business.”

Kerry ignored this and blurted out, “Deal the cards!”

In less than ten minutes…

Sweat dripped from Kerry’s forehead.

The rule of the game was simple. Whoever got the bigger point won.

Each person got five cards.

In the first three cards, he and Boris had similar points; relatively speaking, Boris’ points were slightly higher.

Fortunately, his last two cards were relatively high.

After he threw out the fourth card, he looked at Boris and said gingerly, “Mr. Lewis… it’s your turn.”

“Wanna win?” Boris didn’t answer, but folded his arms and looked at him with a half-smile.

Kerry was furious under his gaze. “It’s your turn! Do you want to play or not?”

Boris smiled, buckled down the cards, and stood up. “I lost.”

What?

The audience was in an uproar!

They were unable to believe that such a thrilling and exciting game ended in this way.

They were still looking forward to the result!

Kerry was stunned, and when he realized it, he burst out laughing. “Did you lose? You actually admitted defeat! Hahahaha! I just said luck will not always be on your side. I’ve lost all night, so luck should also favor me! What’s your point? Is it not as big as mine?”

The waiter was already clearing the chips.

Kerry felt alive and refreshed as if the displeasure of being suppressed had been swept away.

He put his arms around the woman next to him and strutted to Boris. “I want to see what your point is! As I said, luck won’t always be on your side. How can anyone be so lucky at the gambling table? You boasted brazenly before, saying that you can let me win if you want to!”

“Haha, I won by my strength!”

After Kerry made a declaration of victory, he laughed and turned over the two cards that Boris had buckled on the table. He was dumbfounded in the next moment!

All the people who hadn’t left stretched their necks to look over.

This was unbelievable!

They were taken by surprise!

These two points were very big!

If Baris didn’t admit defeat, he would still win this round!

It wasn’t that he won by a narrow margin.

The crowd whispered and looked at Kerry with a bit of ridicule.

Unable to take it anymore, Kerry spat, pulled the hair of the woman next to him, and dragged her outside!

He was pissed off.

Although he won, he found it was even more uncomfortable than losing!

“Kerry,” Boris called him from behind. “We haven’t discussed our business yet!”

Kerry said with a sneer, “What’s the business? I don’t remember any business with you!”

Nell said bluntly, “You can only accept when you win. Are you a bad loser?”

Nell’s words touched Kerry on the raw. He was mortified and swore to get back at them.

Kerry raised his arms and shouted, “Beat the crap out of them!”

With that, more than a dozen men in black with electric batons rushed in, beating everyone regardless of who they saw. novelbin

Nell immediately protected Boris as they walked out. “Mr. Lewis, you go to the private room first, and I’ll take care of it here!”

The bodyguards immediately targeted Boris and ran towards them aggressively.

Nell fought against ten, shuttling back and forth through the crowd. One couldn’t see how he made the move and could only see fallen people one by one.

As soon as Boris left the private room, Biber notified their people.

Soon he received the message and said to Boris, “Kerry has been caught. Let’s go there now.”

“Call someone over to clean up the mess here.”

Before Biber came, he booked a luxury private room at Fortune Casino.

They pushed the door open, and the room was full of bodyguards with weapons, nodding at them.

On the seat in the middle of the private room, sat Kerry who had just escaped in the chaos.

Behind him, two bodyguards pointed machine guns at his head.

“Mr. Lewis!” Upon seeing him, Kerry exclaimed as if he had seen a savior, “Mr. Lewis… what do you mean by this? Let’s talk!”

Boris’ cold and deep gaze fell on him as he said, “I tried to talk to you before, but you didn’t listen.

“No, no, no!” Kerry shook his head repeatedly and said, “I was wrong! You want to know about Mr. Collins, right? I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you everything! But…”

He said through gritted teeth, “But I have conditions.”

Boris snorted, “Why makes you think that you are qualified to negotiate terms with me now?”

“I know what happened five years ago. I know how much you hate Mr. Collins, and I also know how important Miss Scott is to you.” Kerry ventured, “You want revenge.”

“You’re at my mercy.”

“So what? To tell you the truth, Mr. Colliis not dead. If I tell you his whereabouts, he will definitely kill me. Therefore, either you kill me today or he kills me in the future. It’s the same for me.” Kerry had come this far, which was more than enough to prove that he wasn’t stupid.

He had a long-term plan for himself. “So, I want to negotiate a condition. If you don’t agree, then kill me. Anyway, I’m dead, and you won’t know the whereabouts of Mr. Collins anymore.”

Boris pondered for a moment before saying, “Speak.”

“I’ll tell you everything I know, including everything that happened five years ago, but you need to help me replace Mr. Collins.” Kerry’s eyes were full of greedy ambition as he said, “I want to become the underground boss of Oia County!”

Boris closed his eyes and said calmly and nonchalantly, “No problem, let’s talk about Mr. Collins.”

Chapter 493 Negotiation 

“Mr. Collins is not dead.” Seeing that he agreed, Kerry couldn’t wait to show his sincerity.

Leaning on the sofa, Boris poured a cup of coffee slowly and remained silent.

Nell glanced at him and understood in his heart.

Having been following Boris for years, Nell was good at gauging his mind. He immediately scolded, “We already know about this. If you want to say such nonsense, I can make you shut up forever!”

Kerry trembled in shock and said, “No, no, no! Mr. Lewis! Then… I’ll start with the kidnapping five years ago!”

He said in a flattering tone, but still, Boris’ eyes had never landed on him.

Knowing that he couldn’t talk nonsense anymore, Kerry explained everything in one go.

“One day five years ago, Mr. Collins suddenly became very excited. He said that he was going to do a big thing. If he could make it, he would enjoy endless wealth! At that time, I thought that he was going to take someone’s territory, so I patted my chest and asked him to take me with him, but he Said…”

Kerry took a glance at Boris.

Boris drank his coffee calmly, seemingly unmoved by what he said.

“Go on!” Nell glared at him impatiently.

Kerry continued in a trembling voice, “He said he intended to kidnap someone! Mr. Lewis, you know that kidnapping someone is nothing serious at all for us! Then he said the one he wanted to kidnap was none other than the daughters of the Scott family!”

“That was the daughter of the Scott family! I got cold feet and didn’t want to get in the middle of it. Because I was afraid I would be targeted by Scott Company, and I would die a horrible death! But he reassured me that the plan was flawless and there would be no danger!”

“Later, I was seriously injured in an ordinary operation and was admitted to the hospital. I didn’t participate in that incident, but I kept paying close attention to it because I thought that I would be the first to take those properties under his name if he died because of this.”

“Who knew that he was so cruel that he actually entrusted such a dangerous thing to his son? At first, I thought that he took such a big risk just for money, and then I overheard the relationship between him and his son. It was actually because of a woman.”

Boris remained calm; what he heard was within his éxpectation.

Kerry went on to talk about the whole process from the plot to the implementation, and then to the

“Davin is dead. Mr. Collins lost his temper and said he wanted to take revenge on you, and he must make you pay with your life. During that time, I drank with him every day, and once he was so drunk that he blurted out his another son.”

Nell’s eyes lit up as he asked, “He has another son?”

“Yes! Mr. Collins said that when he was young, he fooled around with a dancing girl, and later he dumped the girl for a new one. Unexpectedly, the dancing girl hooked up with the monarch of Western Royalty a few years later and became a concubine! If the dancing girl hadn’t managed to contact him and asked him to help them, he wouldn’t even know he had a son!”

Kerry knew if what he said got out, it would be enough to cause a stir.

But he was more clear that Boris would not easily agree to his request until he had finished the story.

He added under his breath, “I asked someone to investigate secretly. Only Princess Lia in Western Royalty was a dancer before, and I heard that when she was brought back to the palace, her son was already in his teens. Combined with Mr. Collins said, I think the reason why he kidnapped Ziana back then was probably to get money to support his other son, Edison. Unexpectedly…”

Kerry took a glance at Boris carefully and coughed softly. “I didn’t expect you to ruin his good plan, and he didn’t get any money because of it.”

Boris gave a smile suddenly.

He didn’t get the money, but the Scott family owed him a favor.

A favor from the Scott family was worth more than a large sum of money.

“During the two years after his son’s death, he was always worried that the Scott family would find him, so he told me that it was the safest way to fake his death. He took a chance and escaped successfully, and announced to the public that Mr. Collins was dead, but in fact, he just changed his identity, and Willis Erwin and I took care of all the previous properties.”

A frown formed between Boris’ brows. Nell understood his doubt and immediately explained, “Willis is another right-hand man of Mr. Collins, but Willis only became his confidant two or three years ago, and he didn’t know about what happened five years ago.”

“Of course, he doesn’t know! He’s nothing! He made Mr. Collins value him by his ruthlessness.” Kerry continued, unable to conceal the deep resentment, “He has only been valued for two years, and he wants to take my business and even wants to get rid of me, bah! Mr. Lewis! I’ve told you everything I know. You must help me replace Mr. Collins and become the underground boss of Oia County!”

“When I become the boss, Willis is the first one in trouble!”

Boris put down the cup and said, “What does Mr. Collins look like? What’s his name now?”

“You asked the right person!” Kerry chuckled and said, “But I’ll tell you this after the thing is done. How would I know if you’ll go back to your words and turn your back on me after getting the news you want?”

“You don’t believe us?” Biber cut in.

Kerry replied, shaking his head, “I have to leave a way out for me. If I show all my cards and become useless to you, I’ll only be dumped. Mr. Lewis, for someone as scheming as resourceful as you, I have to be careful.”

“Okay. I can help you become the underground boss of Oia County.” Boris put down his cup and added, “I can even provide you with weapons and manpower, but after it’s done, you have to tell me Mr. Collins’ current identity!”

“Deal!” Kerry said straightforwardly.

Boris tilted his head.

Nell took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket and poured out a brown pill that looked like jelly beans.

Confused, Kerry asked, “Mr. Lewis?” novelbin

As soon as he finished speaking, two bodyguards grabbed his neck and Nell stuffed the pill into his mouth quickly.

Kerry wanted to vomit.

The bodyguards covered his mouth and didn’t release him until he swallowed the pill.

Kerry asked anxiously, “What did you feed me?”

Boris remained silent and it was Nell who answered instead of him. “Mr. Wood, as you said, we have to be careful in case you turn your back on us after it’s done. You won’t die in seven days, as long as you tell us Mr. Collins’ identity.”

On the way back to the hotel from Fortune Casino, Biber said with a smile, “This trip to Galia didn’t come in vain.”

“Edison is the son of Mr. Collins and Princess Lia…” Boris rested his slender fingers on his long legs.

Suddenly, a dark light flashed in his deep eyes and he said, “Nell, after knowing the current identity of Mr. Collins, do a paternity test for Edison and Mr. Collins.”

Nell nodded and said, “Okay, I got this.”

A week later.

With the support of Boris, Kerry successfully got rid of Willis.

As soon as Boris got the news, he arranged a meeting with Kerry.

Now that Kerry has taken the position of the underground boss in Oia County, he was in high spirits.

However, at the sight of Boris, his face immediately turned into a look of horror and fear.

His tone was full of flattery as he said, “Mr. Lewis! Thank you for your help. If it weren’t for you…”

“Mr. Collins’ current identity.” Boris, who was impatient, went straight to the point.

Chapter 494 Propose to Zlana 

Waiting in Galia for a week, Boris lost all of his patience.

He was always concerned about Ziana who was far away in the Wesbruck.

Boris didn’t know if Ziana became more terrible due to the curse.

Anyway, judging from Catherine’s daily reports, Ziana dated Edison every day.

So now there was only one thing on Boris’ mind. After Boris got the identity of Mr. Collins, he wanted to rush to Wesbruck and teach Edison a lesson!

“Mr. Lewis, let’s sit down and talk.” Kerry was so respectful to Boris. After all, Boris could decide. whether Kerry lives or dies.

Boris’ face was expressionless with a domineering aura. “No, just talk about Mr. Collins.”

Kerry was frightened by his aura and told the truth, “His name is Pablo Davidson now.”

Boris raised his eyebrows, turned around and left.

Kerry quickly chased after him. “Mr. Lewis! Mr. Lewis, the pill you gave me before…”

Nell stood in front of him.

Kerry smiled awkwardly. “Mr. Taylorr.”

Nell took out a small bottle from his pocket and threw it to him. Kerry hurriedly took it.

“This is the antidote, and it can keep you from dying of poison within seven days.”

“What?” Kerry became annoyed. “I did all you told…”

“Mr. Lewis has one more request. Don’t tell others about the news here, and do not let Mr. Collins know. When Mr. Lewis finishes, we will give you all the antidotes.” novelbin

After finding out what happened five years ago, Boris and Biber left together.

Biber returned to Japera City, while Boris returned to Wesbruck.

Biber asked, “How long will you take to deal with the matter in Wesbruck?”

Boris rubbed the middle of his eyebrows, and his handsome face showed helplessness and exhaustion. “I don’t know.”

“What’s the matter?” Biber asked with concern.

“Ziana is cursed, and If we want to lift the curse, we must find the master who put the curse.”

Biber didn’t expect there was still such an unexpected and ridiculous thing. “Did Edison do it?”

“Edison could do that five years ago, so it’s not strange for him to do something like putting a curse now.” Boris opened his eyes which were as cold as frost.

Despite Biber’s good looks and always smiling, when Biber became ruthless, he was almost the same as Boris.

Therefore, Biber said with a smile, “Since it was because of Edison, why not force him to hand over the master? Why are you so distressed?”

“Edison won’t hand him over.” Then Boris told him that Princess Lia had found Ziana, and Ziana forcibly took Edison away.

Biber frowned as he listened. “This is so troublesome.”

“No matter how troublesome it is, I have to solve it,” Boris said, “I have been using the SkyEye system to find clues, and I hope I can gain something this time when I’m back.”!

It was time for Biber to board the plane, and after a few more words of relief, he left quickly.

Boris then boarded the private jet.

Although Boris was still here, he always missed Ziana in Wesbruck.

In Elegant Poetry Hotel of Wesbruck.

Pablo looked at the man who had almost recovered and exclaimed, “See! It’s so similar! When I came in just now, I almost thought it was real Boris! Great, the money was not in vain, but… you have a similar look, but I always feel you have different temperaments.”

The plastic surgeon boasted, “Looking at this face. It isn’t the same as Boris’, but he can already pretend to be. As for his temperament, Boris grew up with a rich life. He is always dignified and proud, and looks down upon others. No one can be cultivated such a unique temperament overnight. So it is also okay now.”

“Say something.” Pablo said as if inspecting a product.

“Boris” opened his mouth, and his voice was deep and clear. It was almost like real Boris.

Especially when he lowered his voice, he could pretend to be Boris.

Pablo clapped his hands excitedly and laughed. “That’s right! I thought it would take a month, but I didn’t expect it to be so amazing in twenty days! It’s enough, and you!”

Pablo pointed to “Boris” and said, “Pack up and get ready. It’s time for you to play your role tonight.”

Pablo came out of the room and called Princess Lia.

After notifying Princess Lia, Princess Lia called Edison to come here again. “How is your relationship with Ziana recently? Last time I asked you to propose to her. Did you do it?”

“I hinted at Ziana, and she didn’t refuse. Now she relies on me and won’t refuse.” When Edison mentioned Ziana, he showed a warm smile.

He felt so happy recently.

Ziana was gentle and clingy like a kitten. Although she was tough, she still needed to be cared for.

Ziana could always arouse deep emotion in Edison’s heart for her.

Edison liked to be depended on, cared about, adored, and loved by Ziana.

If Edison had known that Ziana would be like this after being cursed, he would do it earlier.

Princess Lia noticed Edison’s expression and urged him anxiously, “So when will you propose to her? It’s better to decide as soon as possible, and Boris is not in Wesbruck recently. If you propose marriage, it’s best to take this chance. Because if Boris is here, he will try his best to stop you.”

Edison pursed his lips and clenched his fists. “In these two days. Where did Boris go? Did you know it?”

“No, he left by his private jet.” Princess Lia told Edison what she knew.

Edison was thinking of something. “He cares about Ziana very much, but he left alone. There must be more important things.”

“Why do you care about him so much?” Princess Lia reminded Edison, “Your most important task now is to hold on to Ziana. By the way, there is news from your Uncle Collins. That person’s facelift is over.”

“Really?” Edison said with joy.

Princess Lia also showed a gratified smile and even felt that God was helping them. “I asked you to tell Ziana about having dinner together tonight. Did you tell her? What did she answer?”

“Of course, Ziana agreed. And she also said that she would prepare a gift for you.” Edison mentioned Ziana and couldn’t help but praise. “She attaches great importance to you, and this gift was prepared with great care.”

“Okay, go to pick her up at night. Let’s meet at Elegant Poetry Hotel.” Princess Lia was afraid that Edison might not understand, so she added, “That fake Boris will also come. It has the best chance today, so do as the plan tonight.”

Edison left where Princess Lia was and called Ziana with a smile.

In the room, Ziana, who was busy, saw the call and answered it with a frown.

Ziana’s tone and expression were completely different. She said with joy, “What’s wrong?”

“I hope you haven’t forgotten about having dinner with my mother at night, have you?” Edison asked gently.

“No, I’m preparing a gift!” Ziana said sweetly.

Edison then praised, “You’re so nice, so do you finish? I’ll pick you up later.”

“I finished, and I’ll wait for you.” Ziana hooked her lips.

After hanging up the phone, Ziana poured the boiled medicine soup on the flat tea leaves.

The medicine soup was colorless and tasteless. And it was quickly absorbed by the tea leaves as soon as it was poured on.

After Ziana finished all this, she repackaged the tea leaves and put them in a gift box.

After an hour.

Edison took the gift box from her and thoughtfully opened the back door for her. “Please get in the car, my honorable princess.”

Chapter 495 Almost in a Nightmare 

At the entrance of Elegant Poetry Hotel.

After the car stopped, the waiters respectfully stepped forward and opened the car door, saying in unison, “Welcome, Prince Edison and Miss Scott!”

After Edison got off the car, he picked up Ziana. But he was surprised that Ziana’s face was so serious.

“What’s the matter?” Edison asked, guessing something, and felt amused. “Are you nervous?”

Ziana glared at him. “Of course. I’m going to see your mother. I’m so nervous, and I don’t know if she will like the gift.”

“She likes whatever you give her. You have selected this gift and prepared carefully for it. So she must be moved!” Edison comforted her considerately, “Don’t worry. I’m here, and you don’t have to worry about anything.”

Ziana pursed her lips. “But I’m still nervous.”

“You will be my wife in the future, so how can you not see your mother-in-law?” Edison teased her.

Ziana retorted, “Who will be your wife? You haven’t proposed yet, and I haven’t agreed you either.”

Edison hooked his lips, showing a proud smile. “If you don’t agree, I will keep proposing until you agree.”

Ziana lowered her head to hide her emotions.

She would never marry Edison, a cruel man who ignored her health!

Seeing Ziana lowering her head, Edison thought she was shy, so he smiled. “Let’s go, don’t let my mother wait for a long time.”

The two entered the hotel and went to the elevator. Then they got out of the elevator and walked through the long corridor led by the waiter.

A melodious bell sounded suddenly, which broke the quiet atmosphere.

Edison frowned curiously, and when he took out his mobile phone, his expression suddenly changed. “My father is calling.”

“It should be something important. Answer the phone first.” Ziana said thoughtfully.

Edison nodded, looked around with his mobile phone, saw the bathroom not far away, and said apologetically to Ziana, “I’ll answer the phone. Ziana, let the walter take you to the private room first.”

“Okay.” Ziana nodded gently to the waiter. “Lead me the way.”

Edison looked at her leaving back, holding the phone tightly.

After tonight, Boris would have no chance to get Ziana’s heart.

Edison didn’t need to do anything, and the Scott family would not let Boris off!

Elegant Poetry Hotel didn’t seem to be spacious from the outside.

After Edison left, the waiter

Ziana through two turns, but they still didn’t stop.

She asked displeasedly, “Have we arrived yet?”

“We’ll be there soon.” The waiter smiled awkwardly, “Prince Edison uses his exclusive private room every time he comes. Although it’s a bit far away, the privacy and environment are top. Miss Scott, it’s right in front.

Ziana nodded.

At this moment, a door ahead suddenly opened from inside.

A tall and straight man came out.

He had broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs. And the black suit on him made him even more fierce and charming.

Although Ziana couldn’t see his face, she was so familiar with this figure!

“Boris? Why is he here?’

Ziana pursed her lips and looked at him. The man was on the phone, and his low and sexy voice fell into her ears clearly.

“Where?” he said.

The other person on the phone said something, and “Boris” said again, “I go out.”

Ziana guessed jealously. “Who is he going to see? Dating with a woman?”

At this moment, the walter reminded, “Miss Scott, We’ll be here soon.”

Ziana answered and was ready to enter the room.

At this moment, “Boris”, who had already gone a long way, suddenly said, “Tell Mr. Collins, I’ll be right there,”

The steps Zlana took out were immediately taken back. novelbin

“Mr. Collins?

Does Boris go to see Mr. Collins?

Isn’t Mr. Collins the one who kidnapped them five years ago?”

Ziana thought a lot and couldn’t move.

The waiter looked at her curiously and reminded again gently, “Miss Scott…”

Ziana suddenly turned her head to look at him. Her beautiful face was filled with a chill.

Ziana hooked her lips. She seemed to smile, but her eyes were not warm, and she said, “I’m going to the bathroom. I know the room number, and I’ll come by myself later. Please send the gift inside first and apologize to Princess Lia for me.”

Ziana was gentle before, but the next moment she changed into a domineering queen.

The waiter was shocked and afraid, and he murmured, “O… Okay.”

Ziana turned and left.

“Boris” wasn’t in the corridor, so Ziana quickened her pace. And within a few minutes, Ziana finally saw “Boris” in front of her.

He opened the door of a private room and walked in.

“Is Mr. Collins in the private room?

What will Boris talk with Mr. Collins?’

Recalling the tone of Boris’ call just now, Ziana didn’t dare to think more.

Ziana stared at the closed door, looked at the waitresses who came slowly, and suddenly had an idea.

Five minutes later.

A waitress in a uniform pushed a trolley filled with delicacies into the elegant and chic private room.

The private room was divided into two big rooms, the inside, and the outside, separated by a hollow screen in the middle.

The outside room was the dining area, and there was no one. There were two silhouettes on the other side of the screen, and the conversation between the two was heard by Ziana.

“Mr. Lewis, why did you find me again after five years? After that time, I thought you would have a good relationship with the Scott family and make a fortune! But I heard Miss Scott falls in love with Edison now. What’s going on? You had such a big plan five years ago and even lost one of your eyes.

But didn’t you get anything in the end?”

Ziana raised her head in astonishment and looked at “Boris” behind the screen in disbelief.

The profile of “Boris” was superior, no matter his nose or thin lips, were all most familiar to her.

But what did she hear just now?

Boris planned her kidnapping five years ago.

“No, how could he do that? How could it be?”

Ziana didn’t want to believe that Boris did it. Her heart trembled, and she stared at him, trying to see something strange.

Ziana wanted Boris to deny it aloud and even thought it was a terrible nightmare.

But the next sentence of that handsome and charming man drove her into a deeper abyss!

“Boris” retorted in a low voice, “Shut up!”

“Hahaha!” Pablo didn’t shut up but still smiled gloatingly, “Mr. Lewis, tell me, what do you want me to do this time?”

Boris leaned back on the chair, and his crossed legs trembled slightly. “Edison wants to marry Ziana, but I won’t let he do that. I want you to blame Edison for what happened five years ago and let the Scott family know. In this way, even if Ziana wants to be with Edison, the Scott family must stop her.”

Chapter 496 I Hate You 

“The Scott family has been investigating what happened five years ago. Once they know that Edison did it, they will never agree to them being together!”

After hearing this, the middle-aged man suddenly clapped his hands.

He was full of praise and said, “Wonderful! This plan is as vicious as it was five years ago. Mr. Lewis, that is so you!”

Boris was still shaking his legs, and leaned his whole body on the backrest, “I have calculated for so long just to get the Scott family, so I won’t allow Edison to rob my achievements! If I succeed, I will in charge of the Scott family, and

I will not treat you badly!”

“Then I’ll thank you first!” The middle-aged man said with a smile, “I also hope you not forget me when you are successful in the future.”

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

But Ziana felt cold all over.

She had known that Boris had a deep scheming heart, but she didn’t know that he could be so treacherous!

It turned out that everything that happened five years ago was a huge lie!

She used to think that it was their fate that she was kidnapped together with him and lived and died together!

She didn’t realize it until today. That wasn’t fate or a coincidence at all!

Everything was designed!

She was kidnapped, he was forced to eat the garbage, and finally his eyes were gouged out…

She thought he loved her deeply, but he did all this for the wealth of the Scott family!

Ziana couldn’t breathe, her brain hurt so badly that she couldn’t think, as if countless white flowers were exploding in her mind.

Her eyes were sore, swollen and hot, and tears fell uncontrollably.

“Bang!” novelbin

The plate she was holding fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

The two people who were plotting freely turned their faces at the same time.

“Mr. Collins” scolded displeasedly, “Do you know how to serve people? Get out!”

But the handsome and cold man squinted his eyes and looked over, and when he saw the woman’s face clearly, he jumped up.

“Ziana?” His voice was full of temptation and deep consternation, “How could it be you?”

“Mr. Collins” reacted, and immediately said, “Oh, no! She heard our conversation! We can’t let her go! Otherwise, she will run out and tell the Scott family, and we will be over! Catch her!”

Boris walked out from the inside with strides, followed by Mr. Collins.

He immediately went to close the door, and said to Boris, “What are you doing in a daze! Grab her!”

“Ziana, you forced me to do this!” Boris finished speaking in a cloudy voice, and grabbed her with his big hand.

09 063

Ziana’s face was full of tears, looking at this familiar but strange man, she couldn’t help but get goosebumps.

“Why?” she whispered in despair.

Boris’ big hands had already clasped her shoulders, “What?”

Ziana couldn’t help growling, “Why are you doing this to me? Why? Could it be that the past is all fake? Did you never love me? No, I don’t know. Why did this happen? What is true? What is fake? Boris! Tell me, what is true and what is false in the past?”

Her eyes were scarlet, and she had an unusually injured expression, like a desperate and angry little animal.

The man was just acting according to the arrangement. At this moment, he was suddenly deeply moved by her reaction and couldn’t help but be distracted.

“Why!” Ziana choked up and said. That sorrow, was greater than the pain of heart death, which shrouded her in desolation and heartbreak, “Why? Boris, what the hell did I do to deserve this? Say… You speak!”

“You shouldn’t have heard this.” Boris replied in a numb tone, “But since you already know, you won’t be able to leave, and I won’t let you go. You deserve all this, who let you be the only daughter of Scott Company?”

Hearing these words from him, Ziana felt as if someone had poured a large basin of cold water on her hot heart.

Her heart was so cold now that it even froze into ice.

Hurt and cold.

She was trembling all over because of the cold, and the tears flowed down, but she raised her head and laughed loudly.

“Crazy!” The middle-aged man pointed at Ziana and said, “She is crazy! Mr. Lewis, she must not be released, or we will die miserably! So…”

He quickly took out his bag and took out a tube of injection, “Inject it to her, and she will forget everything that happened here!”

Boris took it without even thinking about it.

“You really want to inject it to me?” Ziana asked in disbelief.

She still couldn’t accept that she would go astray. She couldn’t believe that Boris was such a disgusting, dirty and vicious man.

How could he do this to her!

How dare he!

Boris didn’t dare to look her eyes. He was just doing things with money, but he clearly felt that the woman in front of him seemed to be deeply hurt by him.

He gritted his teeth and said viciously, “If you want to blame, just blame yourself. You heard what you shouldn’t have heard!”

The heart that was already shattered into slag was crushed into powder again!

“Lol! Boris… Boris, I hate you!”

Ziana smiled, and suddenly cried out heart-piercingly.

When Boris grabbed the needle and was about to inject her, Ziana directly raised her leg and kicked him hard on the stomach.

He didn’t pay attention, and quickly took a few steps back.

Ziana was relieved by this.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man rushed up with fierce eyes, and quickly wrestled with her.

He thought that Ziana was a woman, and he knew a little about kung fu, so he could subdue her in just two or three strokes.

Who knew that she would know kung fu, and he was no match for her at all!

She threw a fist at his face, instantly bleeding from her nose and dizzy.

The middle-aged man fell to the ground, looked at the bleeding nose, rolled his eyes and passed out.

Boris was terrified, and when he realized it, he took advantage of the gap between the two of them to scuffle and sneaked towards the door.

He couldn’t fight, so he had to run!

He was suffered by plastic surgery before, just for the huge sum of money. He didn’t want to die before the money was spent!

“Stop!” Ziana shot him with a cruel look, “Did I let you go?”

Boris didn’t answer, he grabbed the doorknob and was about to push it out. Just then, a soft, boneless hand pressed down on his back, and with a mighty heave, a beautiful over-the-shoulder fall!

Bang!

He hit the ground hard!

Boris coughed violently. When he raised his eyes, the beautiful woman came towards him again.

He quickly got up and hid behind the screen.

She chased, he ran away. And she chased again, he ran away again.

Ziana lost her patience, and her anger grew stronger and stronger.

She hooked a bench with one foot and smashed it hard, the screen was smashed to pieces and collapsed!

Boris’ eyes widened, and his body trembled slightly.

Ziana’s angry voice was mixed with monstrous resentment, “You lied to me, betrayed me, and hurt me. All these years’ accounts will be settled today!”

Chapter 497 Try to Capture Her Tonight 

Ziana’s violent voice was like thunder, and Boris was shocked!

His tongue was tied, “You! What are you going to do?”

Ziana raised her head proudly, like a general who was fighting all over the world, staring at him coldly, greatly powerful, she said decisively, “Debt collection!”

Boris’ legs went limp and he almost couldn’t stand up.

He doesn’t want to die here!

Ziana approached step by step, exuding a terrifying aura all over her body, like a coquettish female ghost who just climbed up from hell to seek his life!

Boris supported the table subconsciously, circling with her helplessly.

She stepped forward, he stepped back.

Ziana’s eyes were scarlet, and she almost went crazy, “Boris, come on!”

Boris was so anxious that he was about to cry, and shouted, “You… Don’t force me!”

“Boom!”

The door suddenly burst open from the outside!

The mighty bodyguards rushed in and surrounded Boris in the middle.

“Mr. Lewis, are you okay?”

Seeing reinforcements coming to help him, Boris’ frightened soul returned to his body.

He quickly stood up, with a serious face, “Inject her with this thing!”

He threw the tube of injection to the bodyguard.

The bodyguard took the order, and the leader waved his hand, “Go!”

“Boris, you are ruthless!” Ziana gritted her teeth, and then glanced at the group of bodyguards with a sneer, such aloof and indifferent eyes, as if looking at a group of dead people, “Come on!”

The bodyguards gave each other a look, and when they were eager to try…

“Stop!”

The gentle male voice was filled with perplexity and anger.

Everyone followed the voice, they saw Edison and Princess Lia standing at the door.

“What are you doing!” Princess Lia looked around and scolded without anger.

Edison walked eagerly to Ziana’s side.

He took her arm and checked it several times with concern. Seeing that she was intact, he asked curiously, “Ziana, why are you wearing this kind of clothes?”

Ziana pursed her lips, pushed his hand away, and instead of answering him, looked at Boris, “Either you die or i live! Edison, you go aside! This matter has nothing to do with you!”

Edison was startled, “What’s going on?”

“Boris, come on!” Ziana’s voice was full of anger.

Boris gritted his teeth, “Go!”

“I’ll see who dares!” Edison suddenly stepped forward and stood in front of Ziana, “With me here, no one can hurt my woman! If you want to die, just do it!”

The bodyguards looked at Boris hesitantly.

Edison continued, “Mr. Lewis, this is in my Wesbruck. I don’t know what happened between you and Ziana, but if you touch her in front of me today, you are against me, against the entire Western Royalty! Are you sure you can bear the

wrath from Western Royalty!”

Boris looked straight over, and the two immediately met each other’s eyes.

After a while, he raised his arms and called out, “Let’s go!”

“Stop!” Ziana sneered, and said arrogantly, “No one is allowed to leave today!”

“Ziana!” Edison frowned, and whispered in her ear, “They have a lot of people, and my mother is still waiting for us. Today is the first time you officially meet her. I’m sure you don’t want any more surprises than I do, do you?”

His voice was as gentle as water, trickling into her ears, as if carrying magical powers, it had a hypnotic effect.

Ziana’s mind began to empty, feeling that everything was out of her control

Seeing that she stopped talking, Edison stretched out his arms to embrace her, “Let’s go first. Keep this account and settle it later!”

Edison took Ziana away, followed by Princess Lia.

Before leaving, she glanced back at Boris, feeling very surprised.

Although the plastic surgeon charged a high price, his skills deserved it!

When she came in just now, she almost thought it was the real Boris, and she shivered in fright!

Seeing Ziana’s crazy look, she must have been fooled, right?

The corner of Princess Lia’s mouth curled into a smug smile, and she left with her waist twisted.

As soon as she left, Boris fell to the ground with a plop.

Edison led Ziana into the private room, saw that she hadn’t recovered yet. Ziana was in a daze, and Edison called her in a low voice, “Ziana, what are you thinking?”

Ziana didn’t speak

He squeezed her palm.

Ziana seemed to be frightened with exaggerated movements, and she withdrew her hand violently.

“Ziana? What’s wrong with you?” Edison’s face was full of worry.

Ziana looked at the strange room, and her eyes fell on Princess Lia. She was stunned for two seconds, and realized that the curse on her body had worked!

Once again, she didn’t know what was going on, and she came here inexplicably.

Ziana was burning with anger.

Boris’ cruel calculation and betrayal, Edison’s selfishness, hypocrisy and affectation all made her feel extremely disgusted!

She was surrounded by tigers and wolves!

Ziana clenched her fists tightly, and her body trembled slightly.

Edison became even more anxious, “Ziana, what happened between you and Mr. Lewis? Why did you appear in his private room, and why did you fight with him?”

Ziana hadn’t opened her mouth yet, tears streaming down her cheeks, “Don’t ask I want to be alone…”

She was a human too!

The man whom she loved so deeply turned out to be a complete scum in the end!

How could she not be sad?

She was sad for herself and those past experiences. What’s more, she was despair! What she thought was sweet was actually an abyss, what she thought was life and death together was actually carefully designed, what else could she believe in the future?

Seeing that she was in a bad state of mind, Edison sighed and shook his head.

He took out a tissue and handed it to her, “It’s okay if you don’t want to say. When you want to tell me, I must be your most loyal listener.”

Seeing her still in a daze, he wiped her tears helplessly, and continued to comfort her gently, “If you are really sad and want to cry, just cry. I will be your side no matter what happened. Ziana, I just want you know that I am here. I am willing to be your most solid backing.”

The meal ended early because of Ziana’s absent-minded look.

With red and swollen eyes, Ziana repeatedly apologized to them, “I’m sorry, I didn’t expect things to turn out like this. It was an accident… I’m sorry, I didn’t control my emotions and messed up the meal.”

“It doesn’t matter, there will always be such accidents in life, and we all know that you must encounter unbearable things before you lose control of your emotions.” Princess Lia was gentle and charitable, with a generous and considerate tone, “I don’t blame you, and you take it easy, Go back and have a good rest, adjust your emotions. If you need help, just talk to Edison.”

She stepped forward and gently held her hand and patted it gently, “Everything will pass, and there will be solutions to all problems.”

If Ziana didn’t know what she did behind her, she would definitely think that she was understanding righteousness, -gentleness and kindness, which was the same as what she said.

The excitement she encountered today was too great, and she was not in the mood to deal with her.

Ziana nodded, leaned over and got into the car. novelbin

Princess Lia winked at Edison, and said in a low voice, “This is a good opportunity for you to show off. Hurry up, women are very fragile at this moment, take advantage of this opportunity, and try to capture her tonight!”

Chapter 498 True or Fake Boris 

Edison’s brows furrowed with displeasure as Princess Lia brought up the matter once again.

Princess Lia, attentive to his reactions, quickly interjected, “I know you disdain resorting to such methods, but tonight you witnessed it yourself, her emotions were clearly influenced by Boris. It’s evident that she still cares deeply about him. Can you accept the fact that she’s by your side, yet her feelings are being stirred by another man?”

Edison tightly pursed his thin lips.

Sensing his wavering, Princess Lia added fuel to the fire, “Since you’re about to propose to her soon, what difference does it make it you become intimate with her now? Are you the kind of person who shirks responsibilities?”

“Of course not,” Edison immediately refuted.

“Well, there you have it,” Princess Lia urged him on, giving him a nudge. “Go ahead!”

Edison’s lips moved, but he ultimately remained silent.

He got into the car and instructed the driver, “Let’s go.”

The journey passed in silence.

Upon arriving at the hotel entrance, Ziana stepped out, devold of any vitality.

She mechanically moved forward, with Edison faithfully trailing behind her.

Upon reaching the door of the room, they attempted to swipe the key card multiple times, but it refused to open.

From behind, Edison extended his hand, took hold of the card, and managed to swipe it open. His voice carried warmth as he said, “Ziana, in you go.”

It was then that Ziana, as if rousing from a daze, looked at him with astonishment. “Edison? You… you didn’t leave?”

Edison smiled bitterly. “No, seeing you in this state worried me greatly, so I decided to stay tonight and take care of you.”

Ziana recollected the conversation she overheard between Edison and his mother in the car.

Despite their hushed tones, her extraordinary hearing allowed her to catch every word clearly, leaving her well aware of their intentions.

She leaned against the door, refusing to let him in.

Feigning confusion, Edison inquired, “Ziana?”

“Edison…” She gazed at him with reddened eyes, shaking her head in refusal. “My mind is truly in disarray. Can you please allow me to be alone in peace?”

Edison’s worried expression deepened, his gaze filled with longing. “I understand that you need time to sort out your thoughts, but I promise I won’t say a word. I’ll simply accompany you quietly.”

Ziana let out a deep sigh. “I’m sorry.”

With that, she closed the door.

Edison’s voice echoed from the other side, “Okay then, Ziana. Rest well, and I’ll come to see you tomorrow.”

Zlana offered no response. After shutting the door, she immediately dialed Boris’ number.

That matter was far from over!

She made more than a dozen attempts, but his phone remained turned off. novelbin

She tried calling Nell, but it was still Impossible to get through.

After contemplating for just two minutes, Ziana decided to wait in their previous hotel room.

Ever since that fateful night they spent together, Ziana had moved out of the room he had booked and switched to at different hotel.

Alone in her car, Ziana drove back to the hotel where they had previously stayed. Approaching the front desk, Ziana was surprised to learn that he hadn’t checked out yet.

She took out her key card and let herself into the room.

The room was engulfed in darkness, devoid of any presence.

Ziana sank into the sofa and continued her relentless barrage of phone calls to him.

She couldn’t find calm within herself, nor did she want to. Anger and heartbreak consumed her, and she desperately needed a target to unleash her emotions upon!

The plane landed.

Boris opened his sleepy eyes, a deep-seated resentment gleaming within. “We’ve arrived?”

In a hushed voice, Nell replied, “Yes, we’re in Wesbruck. The car is waiting downstairs.”

Boris nodded, stood up, and strode off the plane with his long strides.

As he walked, he powered on his phone, only to be met with an unexpected lag-

Boris furrowed his brow and commanded Nell, “Go buy me a new phone.”

“Of course.”

Setting the phone aside, Boris picked it up again when it finally regained its normal functioning. In an instant, he was taken aback by the multitude of missed calls.

There were over a hundred!

And they were all from Ziana!

Boris’ heart skipped a beat. What could have happened for Ziana to desperately seek him out like this?

Was she in danger?

“Where is Ziana right now?” His face darkened, and his piercing eyes flickered with a dangerous light.

In a low voice, Nell replied, “Mr. Lewis, please wait a moment.”

He made a call and quickly reported back to Boris, “Ziana is waiting for you in your room.”

“But didn’t she move out?” Despite not being physically present in Wesbruck, Boris was well-informed about Ziana’s situation.

“That’s correct. However, for some reason, Ziana suddenly came back alone tonight, and she doesn’t look well,” Nell truthfully relayed the information he had. “Perhaps she encountered some difficulties.”

Thinking of her face, Boris felt a pang of heartache and issued a grave instruction, “Drive faster!”

Understanding, Boris’ desperate yearning to see his wife, Nell pressed down on the accelerator without hesitation.

Just then, Boris’ phone received another incoming call.

It was Ziana once again!

Boris hurriedly answered, his tone brimming with unmistakable longing. “It’s me. Why have you made so many calls?”

“Boris!” Ziana gritted her teeth. “This is far from over. How dare you treat me like that? I won’t let you get away with it! Where are you now? I’m coming to find you! Tonight, you will pay the price for what you’ve done!”

As Boris listened to her menacing tone, a shadow of gloom washed over his handsome face.

His eyes squinted. “What happened tonight? What are you talking about?”

He had just returned from Galia and hadn’t even seen Ziana!

What was she babbling about?

“Ziana, have you been drinking?” he asked, with a hint of displeasure.

Ziana exploded with anger. “Don’t play dumb! Boris! I never thought you could be this cruel and disgusting! How could you… How could you hurt me like this! I hate you! I hate you so much! I wish I could kill you right now! Where are you? Tell me where you are!”

“Where are you?” He sensed that something was amiss and spoke in a cold tone. “I’m coming to find you!”

“In your room!”

“Wait there!”

After ending the call, Boris suddenly asked, “Where did Ziana go tonight? Who did she meet? What happened?”

A dark aura enveloped him, like a king in the depths of the night, and his voice carried an unprecedented chill

Just listening to him, Nell felt trapped in a freezer.

He conveyed the gathered information to Boris. “Tonight, Ziana went to the Elegant Poetry Hotel with Edison. It seems they went to meet Princess Lia because she was there too. However, I don’t know the specifics of what happened. The Elegant Poetry Hotel is not open to everyone; it requires approval from Pablo to stay there.”

Boris tapped his thigh with a finger, lost in thought.

The car sped towards the hotel.

Boris strode swiftly, quickly returning to the room.

As he pushed the door open, the figure sitting on the sofa stirred.

Like a ghost, she lunged towards him, her slender fingers reaching for Borls’ neck!

In the next moment,

Boris, in the darkness, swiftly and accurately grasped her wrist, applying pressure, while simultaneously delivering a forceful kick to her leg

She stumbled and fell into Boris’ embrace.

Boris smirked coldly, gazing down at her. “Is this all the skill you have? And you think you can kill me?”

“Boris!” Ziana stared at him fiercely.

Boris covered her eyes with one hand and used the other to switch on the lights.

Ziana struggled relentlessly, her hands rendered useless, attempting to kick him.

Boris adeptly evaded her attempt and swiftly retrieved a belt from his waist, binding her hands tightly behind her back.

“Let me go!”

“What’s gotten into you?” Boris sneered, removing his tie and securing her legs, then tossing her onto the sofa.

Boris leaned over, his hands resting on either side of her. “Tell me what happened tonight.”

Chapter 499 She Had Fallen for It 

Ziana felt utterly humiliated, glaring defiantly at Boris. “You’re still pretending!”

Her eyes were swollen and red, clearly from intense crying. Seeing her sulking like this only made Boris feel more affectionate towards her.

His slightly cool fingertips caressed her cheek.

Ziana stubbornly turned her head away. “Don’t touch me! Boris, you jerk!”

The more she spoke, the sadder she became. Tears, which she had struggled so hard to hold back, streamed down her face uncontrollably.

She sobbed painfully, her body twitching, Crying and cursing, she said, “I really didn’t expect you to spend five whole years setting up such a scheme! Boris, you’re so cruel. When you designed all this, did you really… I just want to ask…”

Boris frowned, his voice cold and restrained. “Ask what?”

Love and genuine hatred entangled within her, pulling her back and forth.

Her emotions were in turmoil, and despite knowing it was not the right time to ask, she couldn’t control herself. “I just want to know… Did you… in these five years, did you truly.. not love me at all? Not even for a second?”

“Ha!”

Boris let out a chilly laugh.

That laughter sent Ziana straight to the depths of hell.

Ziana knew Boris must be mocking her in his heart, and her cheeks suddenly became incredibly hot.novelbin

At this moment, Ziana hated her own foolishness, and she hated herself for clinging to her old feelings for Boris.

In his presence, Ziana always seemed to be at a disadvantage.

Boris was like an all-powerful deity, able to effortlessly control her emotions.

If Boris wanted her to love him, she would be helplessly trapped in her love for Boris, engraved in her heart and bones.

If Boris wanted her to hate him, all it took was a simple glance or a few words to leave her battered and bruised.

So, this was how fragile someone became when they gave their whole heart in a relationship.

Ziana had never felt so pitiful, never been so heartbroken.

She buried her face in the sofa and sobbed loudly, disregarding her image.

Boris watched her silently, his eyes flickering with varying intensity.

Suddenly, Boris grasped her delicate face, forcing her to meet his gaze.

With tear streaks covering her face and her eyes narrowed from crying, the fierce woman warned, “Don’t touch me!”

“What can you do if I touch you?” Boris chuckled, leaning in closer to her. “I even want to kiss you.”

“No!” she protested with a teary voice. “I hate you! After treating me like this… you still want to humiliate me… mmm! Mmm!”

Boris’ hot lips and tongue sealed her mouth, stealing away her breath.

The familiar scent overwhelmed Ziana, causing her thoughts to become muddled. Helpless against his passionate kiss, Ziana’s body grew increasingly weak.

Finally, when Boris released her, she slumped against the sofa, gasping for air, her voice tender and panting.

However, Boris refused to let her off the hook, firmly holding her chin. “Ziana, have you lost your mind? Do you really need to ask if I love you? Isn’t it painfully obvious from everything I’ve done and said?”

Ziana shook her head and suddenly broke down, shouting, “I know you don’t love me! Stop saying it!”

“Damn it!”

Boris rarely cursed so rudely. No words could describe his feelings now.

Boris fiercely bit her lip, causing her to whimper in pain. Only when she pleaded for mercy did Boris reluctantly release. her, but his tone was unusually harsh. “Do you want to drive me to the brink of madness before you’re satisfied? How could you say I don’t love you? I’d give you everything, even my heart. I wouldn’t hesitate to give my life for you, even if you demanded it. How can you say I don’t love you, Ziana? Do you have a heart?”

“No!” Ziana defiantly shouted, her face flushed. “I don’t have a heart! You broke it! Are you still trying to deceive me? Do you think I’m a naive child? I won’t be fooled by you anymore, never trust you again, you demon!”

“Explain yourself clearly!” Boris finally caught onto the crux of her words and sternly demanded, “What happened, tonight?”

“What about the incident at the Elegant Poetry Hotel? Are you not going to admit it?” Ziana gritted her teeth, her words rushed. “I heard it all! I heard everything clearly! You were the mastermind behind my

abduction five years ago! You orchestrated that whole spectacle, Boris! You truly have outdone yourself! Now that I think about it, you conveniently ended up on my island. It was all part of your plan, wasn’t it?”

Boris seized upon the crucial point in her words and asked directly, “Did you see me at the Elegant Poetry Hotel tonight?”

Ziana let out a cold laugh. “Stop pretending!”

She didn’t provide a direct answer, but Boris, being as intelligent as he was, had already pieced together the situation.

“Honey,” Boris called her with a wry smile, lightly tapping her forehead with his slender finger. “What am I going to do with you? Normally, your brain functions just fine, doesn’t it? Why do you become foolish when it comes to matters involving me?”

“What are you talking about?”

“I’ll tell you,” he patiently explained. “The person you saw tonight wasn’t me.’

Boris untied her, and when she tried to jump off the sofa, Boris swiftly embraced her, pulling her into his arms. “Can’t you even recognize your own husband? You truly deserve a scolding.”

As Boris spoke, his large palm placed on her walst lightly patted her.

“You…” Ziana’s body stiffened, her mind in turmoil. “It’s impossible. It was definitely you tonight. You’re still trying to deceive me.”

Boris’ face was a masterpiece, with sharp brows and eyes, every feature perfect, incredibly handsome,

How could there be someone who looked exactly like him?!

Ziana had seen countless handsome men in her life, but none of them came close to his level of attractiveness, let alone being identical!

Boris said with a wry smile, “After that night, I went to Wesbruck. Yudel knows about that. I just returned today. When you called me, I was on the plane and didn’t receive it. After I landed and saw so many missed calls, I came to find you. How could I have had time to go to the Elegant Poetry Hotel?”

His expression was serious, and his excuse was seamless.

Ziana saw no flaws.

Either what he said was true, or his acting skills were simply too good.

“Don’t believe me?” Boris gave a bitter smile. Facing the door, he said, “Nell, show Ziana the footage.”

Both his private plane and car had surveillance footage.

The date and time were displayed in the bottom right corner of the footage, leaving no room for doubt.

After watching it, Ziana fell into silence.

Gradually, her rationality returned, and her trembling body, previously shaken by sorrow and excitement, calmed down and returned to normal.

Suddenly, fragments of a conversation resurfaced in her mind.

“How is the plan going?”

“When the plan goes smoothly, everything he took today will have to be given back exactly as it was.”

“I understand, but I’m afraid of any unexpected incidents. What if he wasn’t killed by the Scott family…”

“By the way, we also received news from Mr. Collins. That person has completed the plastic surgery.

“The fake Boris will also come. Why wait for a better time when we can proceed with the plan tonight?”

Ziana muttered under her breath. This was awful, she had fallen for it!

She was truly foolish!

The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee By Vera Whitehead Chapter 481-490


Chapter 481 Yudel’s Trust

Yudel’s main concern was the matter of Ziana being put a curse. So Yudel got in the car and mentioned again.

His pretty eyes shone with a sharp light. “What’s the deal with being cursed?”

Boris leaned back in his chair tiredly and told him carefully the events of the past few days.

Yudel listened and pondered. “You mean that Ziana was already put a curse when Edison was injured and hospitalized?”

“I think so.” Boris speculated. “I have no proof, but Ziana was out of sorts when she went to see him that day. Don’t you think so?”

“Indeed.” Yudel agreed.

At that time, Ziana’s attitude was firm, and he thought it was a bit perverse.

Ziana was a person with a strong sense of proportion. She knew the difference between being single and having a partner.

When she was single, she could date a different man every day because she didn’t have to be responsible for anyone.

When she had a partner, she cared about his feelings and would not do what she knew was wrong.

“I didn’t think she was cursed at first, thinking she was sick or because of the after-effects of hypnosis. But after excluding them all, only that most unlikely of guesses remained. Do you know about Master Cody?” Boris asked Yudel.

Yudel pondered for a moment and looked at him unexpectedly. “Ziana’s master?”

“Yes.”

“And you went to him?” Yudel pursued.

“Yes,” Boris answered again.

Yudel was convinced. “He said she was cursed, so it’s true. Since you went to him, did you ask him for a solution?”

Boris frowned. “He said that we needed to find out who cursed her, so that’s why I went to Edison.”

“Ziana’s attitude towards Edison has, indeed, changed quite a bit, and it’s justifiable that you suspect him of doing it, but the problem now is…” Yudel’s voice was cold. “He won’t admit it, and he’s not likely to admit it, much less hand over the master.”

“If we want to save Ziana, we can only rely on ourselves to find out.”

Yudel’s analysis coincided with Boris’.

His trust in Boris also soothed his broken heart a little.

He spoke his thoughts. “I’ve asked someone to check Edison’s whereabouts for the past month, who he’s seen and where he’s gone. As soon as he leaves the palace and appears on the streets, he’ll be captured by the SkyEye system. Hopefully, we can find some clues from his whereabouts.”

Yudel patted him on the shoulder. “It’s a good method. Keep me informed if you find anything.”

Boris nodded, his expression not relaxed.

He looked toward the front, unaware that their car had caught up with Ziana’s.

What were she and Edison talking about and doing?

Boris’ mind suddenly reverberated with Ziana’s words and the look of disgust on her face as she spoke. His heart ached. The atmosphere, which had easily eased down, once again became cold and stagnant because of her.

Yudel felt the sudden drop in temperature and followed his line of sight forward.

He said with understanding. “This is not the way back to the hotel.”

“Follow her.” Boris pursed his lips. “Take her back later.”

He had made the biggest concession by allowing her to take Edison away, and would never agree to her spending the night with him.

Yudel couldn’t help but be angry at the thought of Gigi forcibly taking his rival despite his objections, riding in the same car with him, and even spending the night together.

The air pressure in the carriage was instantly lower.

He lightly lifted his thin lips and said to Boris. “You have a good temper.”

“I’m holding back.” Boris smiled bitterly.

Yudel understood him and knew he was having a hard time, so he mentioned, “The Scott family went to Gália to check on something that happened five years ago and coincidentally ran into Biber. You sent him to check it out?”

This incident diverted Boris’ attention.

He said with a little surprise. “Yes, he found Mr. Collins, but Mr. Collins is dead.”

“That’s right, my man also checked here, but I told him to continue to check. Biber is one step faster. He found one of Mr. Collins’ former men and is following up on that man. I think we’re close to a result.”

Yudel mentioned Biber, his tone was full of appreciation. “He’s got good skills,surprisingly faster than the Scott family.”

Boris accepted the praise for his good buddy. “He hasn’t mentioned this to me yet. He followed up on that henchman to make sure Mr. Collins was dead or not.”

Yudel light became dark. “I’ve never believed before that Edison had anything to do with what happened five years ago. But this time he put the curse on Ziana, which made me suspicious.”

Boris clenched his fist, his voice ruthless. “I won’t let any of them go.”

Whether it was Edison or the person who kidnapped them five years ago, he would make sure they paid the price they deserved.

The car suddenly began to slow down.

Nell’s voice came from the front. “Mr. Lewis, Mrs. Lewis is stopping.”

Boris and Yudel snapped back to attention and looked outside to see that they had arrived at the hospital.

Not far ahead, Ziana got out of the driver’s seat, pulled open the back seat door, and held out her hand toward the inside..

Edison weakly handed him his hand and got out of the car with her strength.

However, Edison was unsteady and almost fell, and Ziana rushed forward to support him.

So half of his body was leaning on her.

In the quiet carriage, Boris suddenly let out a low laugh.

Both Nell and Yudel were silent.

The next second.

Boris, who was sitting in a chair, suddenly pushed open the door and walked with big strides to Ziana. He roughly pulled Edison over and flung him hard toward the car.

“Bang!”

Edison slammed heavily on the car door, and his originally gentle and elegant face was now wrinkled together with pain.

“Boris!” Looking at the man who suddenly appeared, Ziana was slightly stunned. When she reacted, she pretended to be angry and yelled at him, “What are you doing? Who told you to follow me here?”

She was about to walk towards Edison. But Boris grabbed her arm again.

“Don’t go!” He ordered overbearingly.

Ziana sneered. “Let go! You’ve already let us go! What are you doing following me now? Boris, are you forcing me to fight you?”

It looks like she and Edison are close!

I’m the one who should be accompanying her!>

Boris’ forehead was throbbing with veins, and his hand was tightening around Ziana’s.

He wrapped one hand around her slender waist, holding her firmly to his side as Ziana struggled to move, gritting her teeth in anger.

“Nell!” Boris chided, “Prince Edison is too weak to stand and walk. Get some men to carry him intothe ward.”

Nell immediately summoned the four bodyguards, all of whom were strong and tall, to come. forward together.

Against his will, they grabbed his limbs and lifted him like a heavy pig, and walked inside the hospital.

Ziana, stunned, came back to her senses and said angrily. “Boris! Put him down!”

Boris expressionlessly wrenched over her shoulder and dropped his gaze on it. Then he patted her shoulder gently.

Ziana pushed him away hard and pulled her legs up to catch up with Edison.


Chapter 482 Ziana Wanted to Break up With Him

“Let him go!” She snapped at the bodyguards, and one of them had to deal with her.

In the middle of the fight, the bodyguards let go of Edison violently.

Edison was originally being carried. As one of them let go, he instantly fell downward.

“Ah!” He couldn’t help but whimper.

Ziana saw this and quickly apologized. The bodyguards reacted even faster and stepped forward to catch him.

Boris sneered. “Do you still want to fight?”

“Boris!” Ziana gritted her teeth viciously.

Boris raised an eyebrow and walked over to take her hand. Without a word, he joined her and took Edison into the hospital ward.

Edison had been hanging all the way and his limbs were in great pain.

He had already been beaten up before. After such a torment, he was almost only half alive.

As soon as he was put on the bed, he was gasping for breath.

Ziana worriedly went forward and felt his pulse, and then said in a soft voice. “It’s okay. Have a rest.”

Edison nodded. When he eased up, he angrily clenched his fist and said to Boris, “Mr. Lewis, please. give me an explanation for what you did to me in the past few days! On my territory, you had me kidnapped and treated me like this. You have no respect for Western Royalty!”

“So what?” Boris said with little emotion. “You touched my woman, so this is what you deserve.”

“I’m not your woman!” Ziana interjected, “Boris, you’ve gone too far! What you did was so disappointing to me! Edison is not only the prince of Western Royalty but also my friend. I’m not happy that you’re treating my friend like this.”

She pushed him away fiercely. “Your love is too domineering, and I can’t bear it!”

“What do you mean?” Boris asked in a deep voice, his eyes sharp.

“I’m breaking up with you!”

“Shut up!” Boris snapped at her in a rare moment. “Don’t make me angry!”

“I’m breaking up with you! It’s over!” Ziana pouted, “I don’t need a man who doesn’t respect me!! don’t need a man who is overbearing, arrogant, and rude! And I don’t need a man who stalks me spies on me and controls me! Our relationship is over! Stop stalking me!”

Boris’ chest thumped rapidly.

He was panicked and angry.

“Your words don’t work!” He gritted his teeth and looked viciously at Edison on the bed. “You actually want to break up with me for him?”

“It has nothing to do with him.”

“Are you doing this for him!” Boris yelled low.

Ziana shuddered at the yell and looked at him incredulously.

She saw the hurt under his eyes, saw the fear he hid, and still spoke the words she had prepared, “Yes! If you say yes, it’s right! Now, get out!”

Boris pursed his lips and walked straight to the hospital bed.

Ziana saw this and rushed to tug him.

Boris struggled to shake his hand, and Ziana instinctively slapped him across the face.

“Slap!”

“Don’t touch him!” Ziana said in a stern voice. “Get the hell out of here!”

Boris looked at her quietly. The handsome, charming face was expressionless, and he scoffed

suddenly.

Ziana repeated, “Get the hell out of here!”

Without a word, Boris stepped forward again.

Ziana’s hands, hanging at her sides, tightened slightly, and she shuddered as she raised them again, but Boris stopped her violently.

There was an instant standoff.

Just then, Yudel walked in. “That’s enough!”

He separated the two and turned to Ziana. “We’ll wait for you outside.”

With that, he took Boris out. The group of bodyguards also left in a great hurry.

Only Ziana and Edison were left in the room.

Edison saw that Ziana was still frozen in place and called her softly, “Ziana, are you okay?”

Ziana turned back, rubbed her wrist, and said, “I’m fine.”

Edison pursed his lips and said with intense jealousy, “I’m sorry, I don’t know you and Mr. Lewis

Get Bogos

are together. As a love rival, I don’t like him, but I don’t want you two to get into this mess because

toge

of me either.”

He looked at her, his eyebrows still gentle. At the moment his face was pale, and the red mole at the end of his eye made him look even more pitiful.

“I hope you can be happy. There must be a reason why you chose him again after you divorced him. So, don’t give up a relationship easily. If you can, you should sit down with him and talk it over.”

“I have nothing to say to him.” Ziana sighed and sat down smoothly on the chair next to the bed. “You’ve seen what he’s done these past few days, and the way he treated me just now…”

She shook her head. “If he cared about me, how could he be like that? In my relationship with him, it’s always been unequal. Five years ago it was, and five years later it’s the same.”

“Do you remember what happened five years ago?” Edison pretended to be surprised.

Ziana nodded. “Yes. He and I knew each other five years ago, and we were kidnapped together. You were the one who saved us then.”

“Yes.” Edison lowered his eyes and admitted. “That scene at the time is still haunting me when I think about it. But after I returned you to the island, I don’t know what happened after that. How did you and

Mr. Lewis lose your memory?”

“That kidnapping caused me to suffer from depression. Because of the suicidal tendencies, my family hypnotized both him and me.”

Edison said compassionately, “And now?”

“I’m much better now. You know, the last three years of my marriage with him are not pleasant at all. I fell in love with him five years ago and married him three years ago. I chose him both times. But each time he let me down in my choice. Ever since I met him, I seem to have lived an unhappy life.” Ziana said, weeping.

She covered her face. “After I recovered my memory, I couldn’t let go of the feelings I had five years. ago. I admitted that I still had love for him, and there was still Ewen between us. Therefore, I

decided to give it another try with him. But once again, it turned out that choosing him was a bad

decision.”

Edison smiled bitterly. “I’m jealous of him that you chose him both times. If I could have you, I must feel like the happiest man in the world, and how could I give up, like he did to you.”

He paused as he spoke. Feeling that what he said was wrong, he hurried to make up for it, “Perhaps, everyone has a way of loving someone. But I just don’t agree with the way he loves you.”

“He doesn’t love me at all!” Ziana suddenly roared with emotion.

She looked at him with teary eyes. “I don’t feel that he loves me. All I feel is his arrogance and

Get Bonus

domination. He loves only himself more and cares more about his feelings. If he had taken me into account and considered me, he wouldn’t have been pissing me off and making me sad.”

“Now we’ve broken up. I’m relieved, but why am I still so sad?”

Ziana whimpered and flopped back on the bed, her body trembling.

Edison leaned over and gently took her by the shoulders, patting her like a child. “You’re both angry right now. When you’ve calmed down, you can think about it. But I’ll support you in whatever decision you make.

Chapter 483 I Don’t Agree to Break Up

Ziana cried for a long time until the door of the ward was knocked again.

Edison was a little displeased to be disturbed, but he still asked gently, “Who is it?”

Yudel showed half his body and said to Ziana, “Ziana, it’s getting late. It’s time to go back and rest.”

Edison lowered his eyes and also said, “Ziana, don’t cry. Go back to sleep. Everything will be fine when you wake up tomorrow.”

Ziana sobbed and raised her head.

Her face was flushed, and her eyes were also red with tears. She looked pitiful and distressing.

Seeing her looking at him, Edison became more gentle when speaking. “Ziana, be good. No matter what happens, you should take care of yourself first.”

Ziana finally listened to him and got up slowly. “Alright. I’ll go back first and come see you. tomorrow.”

Edison said with a smile, “Okay, I’ll wait for you. Go to bed early at night. If you can’t sleep, you can call me.”

Yudel frowned slightly when he looked at them talking to each other.

Ziana walked to Yudel and said, “Yudel, let’s go back.”

As soon as Ziana came out of the ward, a tall figure enveloped her.

Ziana raised her head and was slightly surprised to see it was Boris.

Boris was so arrogant. He should leave as Ziana treated him that way.

Ziana didn’t expect him to still be there.

Just as she was in a daze, she felt a warm hand.

Boris held her hand and said warmly, “You should go to bed. Are you sleepy? Let me send you back.”

Ziana was silent and wanted to pull out her hand.

Boris noticed it. He suddenly held her hand more tightly and pulled her into his arms.

He took her with one hand, wrapped her waist with the other, and walked out with her in his arms.

Seeing that the door of the ward hadn’t been closed, Ziana said in a cold voice, “Boris, I just said we broke up! You…”

Boris interrupted her. “I heard it.”

Ziana was stumped. “Then why did you still…”

“I don’t agree to break up,” Boris replied calmly.

The voice outside the door gradually disappeared with the footsteps.

Edison’s gaze gradually became deep.

He knew that Boris would not let Ziana go so easily, but he had done so much. Ziana must be his.

Edison wouldn’t allow anyone to snatch her away!

Boris hugged Ziana to downstairs of the hospital. There were many luxury cars lining up, was very spectacular.

He stuffed her into the car and got in.

After Ziana got into the car, she sat on the side, turned her face to the car window, and didn’t look at Boris.

Boris didn’t care about it and casually held her hand. novelbin

Ziana pursed her lips and said, “We have broken up.”

“You’ve been cursed. I won’t take what you say seriously,” Boris said in a calm voice, “I’ll forgive what you said. Ziana, do you still remember what I said the day when we confirmed our relationship on the island five years ago?”

Ziana remembered it.

At that time, in order to make sure that Boris cared about her, Ziana deliberately asked a bodyguard to pretend to be her boyfriend to test him.

When Boris was fooled and was about to leave, Ziana was finally willing to let him go, hugged her and kissed her.

He said, “It’s not so easy to get rid of me after provoking me.”

When Ziana was still stuck in the memory, the voice of those familiar words sounded in her ear.

“It’s not so easy to get rid of me after provoking me.” Boris played with her hand and said calmly, “I want to be with you forever, so I don’t intend to let you go. I know what you said today is not true.

You’ve been cursed and can’t control yourself. I understand.”

Ziana was moved by Boris’ words.

She turned her head away and saw Boris’ face reflected in the car window.

She had always known how good he was, but today she really felt that he loved her more than she Imagined.

Boris and Ziana were preoccupied with their own thoughts, and they had nothing to say all the way.

After arriving at the hotel, Ziana once again felt Boris’ love for her.

As before, he put the bath water for her as if nothing had happened. He helped her to dry her hair, carried her to the bed, and then also lay down, holding her in his arms.

“Close your eyes. It’s story time.”

Boris’ mellow and sexy voice was like an elegant cello.

Ziana was hugged by him, clinging to him tightly. She heard his heartbeat as if every beat was expressing his love for her.

Ziana was thinking wildly. After Boris read the story, she still didn’t fall asleep.

On the contrary, Boris’ breathing beside her became steady and calm.

Ziana thought, “Did he fall asleep?”

Ziana didn’t dare to make any big moves and quietly opened her eyes.

Even in the dim light, Boris’ face was stunning.

Ziana’s gaze was greedy and gentle, falling on his Roman nose, sexy lips, and protruding Adam’s apple.

She got up secretly and kissed Boris’ Adam’s apple.

Ziana’s body reacted faster than her brain. She realized what she had done after kissing Boris.

When she subconsciously wanted to retreat, Boris’ powerful arm suddenly hugged her tightly.

“You want to run away after kissing?” Boris said with an evil smile, “You want to leave me again?”

Ziana was startled. “Didn’t… didn’t you fall asleep?”

“I was woken up by a kitten’s kiss.” Boris’ voice was hoarse. “Tell me. What should I do to this kitten that disturbs my sleep?”

Ziana was at a loss for words. “I… I… you should go to sleep.”

“You don’t sleep in the middle of the night. I guess you must be hungry,” Boris said, “I should feed. you first. Otherwise, you will disturb me again.”

“You… ah!”

Before Ziana finished speaking, she felt dizzy.

She was pressed under Boris all of a sudden. A passionate kiss captivated her.

The night was long.

In the hospital.

Princess Lia, who got the news, hurried over.

As soon as she entered the ward, she cried and said, “Edison, you are finally back. Where have you been taken by Boris these days? Did he do anything to you? Are you injured? Let me have a look…”

She trotted to the hospital bed and looked Edison up and down.

Edison had bruises and scars on his face and body, making Princess Lia have tears in her eyes.

She said in a sobbing tone, “Why did Boris take you away? And why did he let you go? Did he ask someone to beat you for all the injuries on your body?”

Edison’s face was gloomy. “He knew Ziana was cursed, and he confirmed that Lasked someone to do it. He arrested me for forcing me to hand over the person who put the curse.”

“What?” Princess Lia was shocked, and she became flustered. “He knew it? How did he know? You didn’t expose Nia, did you? We took a lot of effort to put a curse on Ziana. Once Nia is exposed, our plan will be in vain!”

Edison shook his head and said, “I’ve come to this step. There’s no turning back. I won’t give up halfway. Besides, he’s speculating and has no evidence. If I don’t admit it, he can’t do anything to me.”

Princess Lia was afraid that Edison be swayed. She breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words. “That’s good. Boris is really bad. Keeping him will only ruin our plan! I will go to Mr. Collins tomorrow and let him take care of Boris!”

Edison didn’t say anything, and his expression was ineffable.


Chapter 484 Kill Two Birds With One Stone

The next day.

Princess Lia asked Pablo to meet at the usual place.

She arrived first. When she was taking a shower in the bathroom, someone came in suddenly.

Princess Lia waved to Pablo with a smile. Pablo undressed while walking with a smile and squeezed into the bathtub.

After the sex, they lay on the bed with their arms around each other.

Pablo pinched her hair and sniffed it. He asked with a satisfied face, “I heard that Edison has returned to the hospital?”

Speaking of this, Princess Lia became furious. “Yeah! He came back last night. It was really Boris. who took him away and let people beat him badly. Pablo…”

Princess Lia couldn’t help crying. She said, “You didn’t see how badly our son was beaten by him. His body is covered by injuries. In just a few days, he lost a lot of weight. It’s so heartbreaking when I see him!”

“More importantly, do you know why he took our son away?” She said without waiting for Pablo’s answer.

“He knows that we have put a curse on Ziana. He took Edison away because he wanted to force

Edison to hand over Nia. Boris is really cruel. We must get rid of him. Otherwise, our plan will be destroyed by him!”

“It’s Boris again!” Pablo gnashed his teeth and said, “Five years ago, it was him who ruined our plan and even killed Kasen! I can’t wait to kill him!”

Princess Lia slapped him on the chest and said, “Just kill him! Didn’t you always say before that you would get rid of him? But five years have passed, and he is still alive! It’s all your fault. If he had killed him, Edison wouldn’t have suffered so much.”

“Do you think I don’t want to?” Pablo remembered something sad. Anger and sadness welled up in his heart.

He said with red eyes, “Five years ago, Kasen died for saving Edison. I wished I could rip Boris off! I found Erkan and helped Kasen avenge.”

Pablo snorted and said, “I didn’t expect Erkan to be so useless! It’s totally a waste of my energy! I thought he could destroy the Lewis family and kill Boris, but he was sent to prison by Boris! I’m so mad!”

Princess Lia was in despair. She asked pessimistically, “So, there is nothing we can do about him?

Are we gonna just let him bully Edison and sabotage our plan?”

“It’s not easy to get rid of Boris! He is surrounded by countless people protecting him openly and secretly. Tell me how I can kill him!”

Princess Lia turned around angrily. Not long after, she covered her face and began to cry.

Pablo kept sighing.

After Princess Lia cried for a while, she sat up abruptly when thinking of her and Edison’s future.

She stared at Pablo and said, “I don’t care. You have to get rid of Boris! Did you hear that?”

Pablo frowned.

Princess Lia kicked him and said, “Did you hear that? Did you hear that?”

“Got it!” Pablo said annoyedly, “Let me think about it.”

Princess Lia came back without success this time. She was not in a good mood when she arrived at the hospital, and her face was still dark.

Edison asked her to close the door before asking. “Why are you unhappy?”

“Your Uncle Collins said it would be difficult to get rid of Boris.” Princess Lia was upset and said. with a gloomy face, “Boris is very scheming and cruel. It is not easy to deal with him.”

Edison pursed his lips and was lost in thought.

Princess Lia was not in a good mood and also sat by the bed in a daze.

After a while, Edison suddenly said, “Mom, I have an idea which is more beneficial to us than getting rid of Boris.”

Princess Lia’s eyes widened in surprise. “Really? What is it?”

Edison motioned her to come forward.

Princess Lia hurriedly moved her ears closer. The surprise and joy in her eyes became more intense.

When Edison finished speaking, she said excitedly, “It’s a good idea! I’ll tell your Uncle Collins right away! This way can kill two birds with one stone! Great! Edison, you are so smart!”

Princess Lia thought about the bright future and hurriedly left.

Not two minutes after she left, the door was pushed open again.

Edison thought it was Princess Lia who had left and returned. He said without raising his head, “Why are you back again?”

“It’s me.” Ziana stood at the door and looked over nervously. “Is it appropriate for me to come here. now?”

Edison hurriedly said, “Ziana, are you coming to see me again? Come in. I thought you wouldn’t come here today!”

Ziana smiled. She walked to Edison’s bed and sat down. “Why? I said I would come to see you today.”

Edison lowered his eyes. His voice was full of disappointment. “I thought you may have to deal with. the matter about Mr. Lewis. I’ve been waiting for you this morning, but you didn’t come.”

Ziana avoided talking about Boris. She pouted her lips and said, “I… I was delayed by something in the morning, so I didn’t come.”

She was tortured so hard by Boris last night. When she woke up, it was almost twelve o’clock.

Thinking of this, Ziana lowered her head to hide her shyness.

Her behavior made Edison think she was sad. He asked, “Are you still sad?”

“If she’s sad, are you going to take advantage of it?” Boris said suddenly and stunned the two of them.

When Ziana and Edison looked at him, he swaggered in, looked down at Edison, and sneered. “I won’t let her go, let alone give you the chance to snatch her away.”

Ziana frowned. “What are you doing here?”

Boris sat down next to her. “I’ll be wherever you are.”

Ziana was angry. “What are you going to do?”

“Stay with you,” Boris said calmly.

Ziana glared at him and cursed in her heart.

Ziana didn’t know why Boris came here.

His existence was ruining her plan!

Boris looked back at Ziana calmly.

They looked at each other, which made Edison very uncomfortable.

He suddenly coughed.

Ziana asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? Are you not feeling feel? Do you want some water?”

Edison pursed his lips and nodded weakly. “Thank you. Please pour me a glass of water.”

Ziana turned around. She poured a glass of water and brought it to Edison.

When Edison was about to take over, Boris suddenly stretched out his hand. He took over the glass and handed it to Edison’s mouth. “Drink.”

“Boris, what are you doing?” Ziana was speechless.

Boris glanced at her indifferently and said, “I’ll help you take care of him. Go to have a seat. Don’t get tired.”

“I don’t need you to help me!” Ziana was speechless. “You should leave!”

Boris ignored her. Seeing Edison didn’t speak and didn’t take the glass, he asked impatiently, “Are you going to drink or not?”

“Mr. Lewis, you are not welcome here,” Edison said coldly.

Boris said with a faint smile, “Do you think I want to see you? If you didn’t keep staring at my woman, would I follow her everywhere? Edison, you are not in a position to steal my woman.”

Edison clenched his fists.

Did he need to steal Ziana?

In a few days, Ziana would actively throw herself into his arms!

Chapter 485 A New Phone

Boris just stayed in the ward no matter what they said.

Edison and Ziana both stared at him with gloomy eyes.

Boris didn’t notice it and said to Ziana with concern, “Ziana, go have a seat. I’ll take care of Edison.”

Although Boris said that, he would not really serve Edison water.

He called a few bodyguards to come in and surrounded Edison’s bed.

Edison felt he was about to be out of breath. He asked displeasedly, “Boris, what are you doing?”

“They’re taking care of you in all directions. Aren’t you satisfied?” Boris’ voice came through the crowd. “If you need anything, you can tell them. They will take good care of you.”

“I don’t need it!” Edison was angry.

These bodyguards were all tall and sturdy who were clearly here to monitor him!

Edison was very uncomfortable when being stared at by so many pairs of eyes at the same time.

“Boris, get your people away!” Edison yelled angrily again.

Boris said calmly, “No, you need them.”

Edison couldn’t communicate with Boris at all. After a moment of silence, he suddenly begged in a low voice. “Ziana, please go. I appreciate your kindness but don’t come to see me again. I think you should deal with your relationship first.”

Ziana sneered in her heart.

Edison hadn’t broken the curse on her. Where could she go?

She suppressed these thoughts, stood up from the chair, walked aggressively to Boris, and grabbed his arm roughly.

“You should leave,” Ziana said angrily, like a raging beast. “Don’t you understand what I said yesterday? Don’t disturb me anymore. Do you have to force me to death to make you happy?”

Boris’ eyes instantly turned dark. He asked her in a deep voice, “What did you say?”

Ziana didn’t dare to look into his eyes. She lowered her eyes and gritted her teeth. “If you don’t leave, I’ll die in front of you!”

‘I dare you!” Boris shouted. He had never been so angry before. He pointed at Edison on the bed in rage and said crazily, “If you dare to die, I will make his life worse than death!”

The chill that lingered around Boris made the warm room instantly become freezing.

Ziana was frightened by him. She raised her head and stared at him with red eyes.

Both of them were furious, and the atmosphere was tense for a moment!

Nell, who shrank his neck in the room, had a bad feeling that a storm was coming

Suddenly, a ring broke the frightening atmosphere.

Boris looked down, took a deep breath, and said to Ziana, “I’ll pick you up at night.”

After he finished speaking, he glanced at her with distress and hurried away with Nell and others.

When there were Ziana and Edison left in the room, Ziana finally drooped her shoulders.

She recalled Boris’ eyes before he left. His eyes were dim. He looked disappointed and devastated.

Edison’s tone was a little jealous. “Aren’t you going to explain it to him?”

Ziana rubbed her face and pretended to be irritable. “I have a fight with him whenever we meet. It’s. not suitable for us to be together at all! There’s nothing to explain. Just let him leave. I don’t want to him ever again!”

Ziana played with her phone with a cold face. Within a minute, she dropped the phone on the table.

Edison asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”

“Damn phone!” Ziana said angrily, “The screen went black all of a sudden! Even the phone turns. against me when I’m in a bad mood! I can’t even play a game!”

After she finished speaking, Ziana folded her arms around her chest and glared at her phone, and her cheeks bulged in rage.

Edison was still kind. He said helplessly, “Why are you acting like a child? Alright. Don’t be angry. You can use my phone.”

Ziana refused. “How can I do that? The phone is such a private thing. It’s not appropriate for me to play with yours. What if I see some secret that I shouldn’t see?”

“I have no secrets from you.” Edison looked at her earnestly and said, “Ziana, believe it or not, I have never regarded you as an outsider.”

Ziana looked at him and pretended to be moved. Her tears suddenly fell down.

She said in a sobbing tone, “Why are you so nice? If… if I had chosen you, would I not have been as painful as now?”

“Come on. Don’t cry.” Edison looked at Ziana affectionately and comforted. “I’m always here. As long as you need me, I will be here with you.”

“Edison…” Ziana’s tears rolled down her cheeks. “You are so kind.”

“Be good, and I will be better to you.” Edison unlocked his phone and handed it to her. “Take it to play the game. I’ll ask someone to send your phone for repair.”

“No need,” Ziana said, “I can take the chance to buy a new one!”

“Okay.” Edison’s eyes were filled with love for Ziana. “I’ll send someone to buy you a new one right away. You can play with mine first.”

Ziana wiped away her tears and said tentatively, “You don’t mind it?” novelbin

“Not at all,” Edison said with a smile.

Ziana quickly logged into the private mailbox when Edison went to let his bodyguards buy a new phone.

She clicked a link from the mailbox, and then a game download screen popped up.

When Edison turned his head, he happened to see her downloading the game.

“Why don’t you play online games?” He didn’t expect that Ziana was playing this kind of puzzle game.

“I’ve been obsessed with this recently.” Ziana replied casually, “I’ve already reached more than a thousand levels!”

While Edison was amazed, he praised Ziana. “Really? That’s cool.”

“There are 3000 levels in total. I plan to pass the game when I spend the rest of days with you in the hospital!” Ziana said confidently. Then she installed the game and opened it.

The cheerful and lively game background music soon sounded in the room.

Edison watched her play all afternoon. He was only surprised at her cleverness but didn’t realize that this game was different from the popular ones on the App Store.

In the evening, Ziana rubbed her sore neck and returned the phone to him.

Edison asked with a smile, “Still haven’t passed this level?”

“It’s so difficult.” Ziana muttered unhappily, “What are you laughing at? You help me pass it. I want to see you pass the level tomorrow.”

Edison nodded confidently. “Got it. I promise to pass this level.”

Seeing Ziana standing up, he asked, “Are you leaving?”

“Yes.” Ziana said with a frown, “He said he would come to pick me up, but I don’t want to get entangled with him anymore. I’ll go back first, and I’ll come see you tomorrow.”

“I’ll let Jackson see you off,” Edison said.

Ziana did not refuse, “Okay.”

Edison gave her the old phone and a new one. He said, “Your phone has been repaired as I think there may be some information you need in it, but I hope you can use the new one I bought.”

Ziana took the two phones and threw the old one into her bag without looking at it.

She held the new phone and waved at Edison. “I will. Thank you.”

A smile bloomed on Edison’s face. “Jackson, you must send Ziana home safely.”

On the way back, Ziana fiddled with her new phone the whole time.

When Jackson sent her to the hotel, she didn’t realize she had arrived, and it was Jackson who reminded her.

Ziana bid farewell to Jackson and returned to the room.

As soon as she walked in, she threw the new phone on the couch and took the old one out of the bag.

She entered her private mailbox and clicked on the link.

A series of codes popped up from the link. More and more codes appeared, and then the entire screen turned blue.

After Ziana clicked something, the codes disappeared, and the hidden software on the desktop suddenly appeared.

She opened the software, and it actually copied everything in Edison’s phone!

It included his address book, social accounts, and chat history.

Besides, there was also a real-time operation log of his phone.

During the time she was away from the hospital, what Edison did on the phone was clearly displayed.

Chapter 486 Who Would Win 

Edison was still playing that game in order to help her pass the level.

Ziana glanced through everything in his phone expressionlessly.

As she guessed, Edison didn’t like to use chat app, and the chat records were all irrelevant information.

But from Edison’s communication records, Ziana found that Edison communicated with Pablo frequently.

Ziana had no way of knowing what they had talked about. About their future conversations, the software planted in his phone was eavesdropping.

She wouldn’t miss any important information.

Ziana was a little tired after checking the phone, mainly because her head hurt again.

Her head was uncomfortable, itchy and sore, making her irritable.

Every time Ziana stayed with Edison, the symptom would be relieved.

When Ziana was away from Edison, the headaches became more frequent.

This curse was one of the most vicious. It used blood as a curse and hair as a guide! If it was forcibly removed, the person would die!

Ziana recalled the milk Edison brought that day, and that he had used her bathroom.

She connected the dots mentally. She had guessed what the whole thing was.

There was a gloomy light in Ziana’s eyes.

She had a reputation for revenge, yet Edison still dared to attack her.

He didn’t care about her body, the friendship between them, and all the consequences!

Since he was unkind, Ziana would be unrighteous!

She wanted him to get the results he had brought with his own hands and see who would win!

When she got rid of the curse, what Edison did to her, she would pay back many times!

Ziana was emotional, and her head hurt more and more, making her dizzy and unable to think.

Her eyes were blurred. With the last of her strength, she staggered onto the bed, drowsy.

She didn’t know how long it took. In her drowsiness she heard a sob.

“Oh, That’s the project we fought for! It was just taken away!”

It was Princess Lia’s voice!

Ziana, whose head was sore and hurt, instantly sobered up a lot.

She sat up from the bed suddenly, grabbed the mobile phone on the bedside table, and listened carefully.

On the phone, Princess Lia was still keeping crying and complaining.

“Do you know how much money can be earned from that project? Your father also values that

project very much! Now it’s over… It’s all over! The Western Royalty has always decided succession based on economic strength. And we lost such a profitable project!”

“It’s all Boris’ fault! It was him!” Princess Lia’s tone was as cold and venomous. “He teamed up with damn Princess Catherine to steal our project! If I had known he was such a problem, I would have

killed him by hook or by crook! Why is he still alive!”

“Just wait and see. Princess Catherine will be in the limelight tomorrow! Why does she take advantage of our work? Your father have always favored her, so the position of monarch will definitely be passed on to her! We’ve been planning all this for nothing, haven’t we?”

“Isn’t there still the Scott family?” Edison’s voice came suddenly. “How is that plan going?”

Princess Lia was reminded, and her tone suddenly became crazy, “You are right! Keep Ziana on your side. I will ask about the plan right now That is our only chance!”

After the sound of the door closing heavily came from the mobile phone, the room then became quiet.

Ziana digested the message and fell into deep thought.

What was their plan?

That night, Boris came back very late. And Ziana felt someone hugging her while she was asleep.

When she opened her eyes, there was nobody around her. Even the place where he slept was cold.

Boris seemed to be very busy. According to Boris’ temperament, stealing one of Edison’s projects was probably just the beginning.

Ziana was sensitively aware of the aura that something was about to happen.

And she was right.

That night, when Ziana returned to the hotel from the hospital, Ziana overheard Princess Lia’s distraught roar again.

“Another project is taken away! It’s still Boris! It’s still the damned Boris! Ah, I’m so pissed off!”

There were loud stomping sounds.

Princess Lia gasped and cursed anxiously, “No! I can’t take it anymore! If Boris continue to destroy us like this, the property we have accumulated over the years will all be destroyed! Boris is Crazy! You stole Ziana, and he never lets us go!”

Princess Lia walked around the room several times anxiously, and finally said, “I’ll press that plan again!”

When Edison was alone, he didn’t like to talk. After Princess Lia left, the phone went quiet.

Ziana quickly turned on the computer, hacked into SkyEye system, and accurately locked onto the hospital.

In the surveillance, Princess Lia was sullen, walking out of the hospital while making a phone call.

Soon, Princess Lia hung up the phone and got into a black luxury car.

Ziana took down the license plate number and tracked the car the whole way. And finally the car stopped at the Elegant Poetry Hotel. novelbin

When Ziana wanted to hack into the hotel’s surveillance system again, she was surprised to find that there was no surveillance in this hotel!

Ziana was thoughtful.

Considering Princess Lia’s identity, it was no wonder she would find a hotel without surveillance.

In Elegant Poetry Hotel, Princess Lia took the special elevator and went straight to the luxurious presidential suite on the top floor.

She swiped her card and entered the room with ease, with a weeping expression on her face. Before she saw Pablo, she whispered softly, “Pablo… Pablo… Something happened! Something big happened! Don’t you care about us? We are going to be bullied to death by Boris!”

Princess Lia whined for a long time, but no one reply.

Princess Lia felt strange.

They had talked on the phone before Princess Lia arrived, and Pablo said he would wait for her here!

“Pablo?” Princess Lia crossed the living room, pushing the doors one by one to search. “Pablo, where are you?”

Princess Lia went all the way to the innermost room before seeing Pablo, but he was not alone in the room. There were several men standing side by side in front of him, and several people in white who looked like doctors.

Seeing her coming, more than a dozen pairs of eyes looked at Princess Lia in unison.

Princess Lia felt terrified at the sights.

At this time, Pablo signaled her to come to him. “You came just in time. Listen to what the plastic surgeons were going to say.”

A plastic surgeon held a photo of Boris in his hand. After examining it for a while, the plastic surgeon raised his eyes to look at the men opposite.

The plastic surgeon commented objectively, “The man in the photo has very superior facial features. He is a masterpiece of God. And the people you found, although the conditions are also good, but compared with the man in the photo, they are nothing!”

“Can you fix it?” Pablo interrupted impatiently, “Yes or not. I don’t want to hear other nonsense.”

In order to earn this sum of money, the plastic surgeon patted his chest and said, “Of course. Among the people you found, No. 3’s congenital conditions and facial contours are very similar to the man in the photo!”

“So what?”

“So his bones basically don’t need to be moved. Only the facial features will be adjusted. It’s very fast. Although he can’t be a hundred percent similar to the man in the photo in the end, he can be eighty to ninety percent similarity. It should meet the requirements of your plan!”

Pablo waved his hand. “Then give him plastic surgery as quickly as possible!”


Chapter 487 Let Boris Take the Blame 

The plastic surgeon seemed to see a large amount of money in the account, and his face flushed with excitement.

He boasted to Pablo, “In one month, I will definitely transform him!”

Pablo was obviously dissatisfied with the time, and ordered with a frown, “Hurry up!”

The plastic surgery doctor groaned, “Please. Plastic surgery requires a recovery period! Surgery is fast, but if you want people to see no trace of plastic surgery, he must cultivate! One month is very short! You don’t want any mistakes, do you?”

These words were right to Pablo.

In order to ensure the success of the whole plan, this fake Boris must be able to confuse the real.

Pablo had to wait a month!

But Pablo’s business in Wesbruck, which he had so assiduously run over the years, was likely to lose a lot.

Pablo thought it was a pity

He was restless and urged, “Let’s start preparing now!”

After finishing speaking, Pablo put his hands on the shoulders of Princess Lia who had a puzzled. expression, and walked out with his arms around her.”

Princess Lia was puzzled from just now. As soon as they came out, she immediately pushed Pablo away.

Her eyes were red, and she asked anxiously, “What are you doing? My son and I put all our hopes on you. Instead of implementing our plan, you find someone to do plastic surgery according to Boris! Do you care us? Did you take us seriously?”

Princess Lia was the best at manipulating men. As she spoke, her tears fell down.

She cried, and her chest trembled.

Pablo’s original anger at being scolded by her almost disappeared when he saw this.

He smiled and held her in his arms, kneading her chest, and explained, “I’m just implementing our plan!”

“You’re lying!” Princess Lia slapped his troublesome hand, “Make people look like Boris has nothing to do with our plan. You can’t fool me!”

Pablo snorted. “As a woman, you are very short-sighted! Let me ask you, what is our plan?”

Princess Lia wiped her tears and said viciously, “To make a third party the instrument of a crime! We can’t deal with Boris, so let the Scott family deal with him!”

“So I make someone look like Boris. What’s the problem?” Pablo pretended to be profound.

Princess Lia was even more confused by what he said.

She raised her head to meet Pablo’s complacent and calm expression, pushed and asked, “Don’t keep me in suspense! Tell me! I’m going to be so pissed off by Boris these days! What can you do to deal with him?”

Pablo became more leisurely. Instead of answering, he continued to ask, “What is the Scott family most concerned about?”

Princess Lia was stunned, but still blurted out, “Ziana?”

“That’s right!” Pablo saw that she got it, and continued, “So if the Scotts knows that the person who kidnapped Ziana five years ago was Boris, and all the tragedies were directed and acted by Boris

himself. What do you think they will do to Boris?”

“But didn’t we do what happened five years ago?” Princess Lia couldn’t understand, and asked in a murmur, “How do you frame Boris for this?”

Pablo looked disgusted. “For the past five years, the Scotts have been investigating what happened. five years ago. And Edison said that Luke, the eldest son of the Scott family, has been watching him, and thinks that the kidnapping case back then had something to do with him.”

“In order to prevent the Scott family from finding me, I faked my death three years ago and completely extinguished all the clues. Even if the Scotts found out about Mr. Collins, he was already dead. How could they continue to investigate? Unexpectedly, I am still alive!”

Pablo felt happy played tricks on the Scotts and couldn’t help laughing.

Princess Lia listened, and she gradually understood.

Her heart was beating fast, and she grabbed his arm excitedly. Pablo’s next words verified her guess.

“Mr. Collins is dead, so we have the final say on whom we want to put the blame on? I asked someone to have plastic surgery to look like Boris, just to make the fake Boris admit it himself and take the blame for it! At that time, if the Scotts know about it, them will definitely not let it go!”

Princess Lia completely understood. Such a scene seemed to emerge in front of her eyes.

She was very excited. “Wonderful! Pablo, you are so smart! If Ziana knows that Boris harmed her and lied to her, let alone have feelings for him, and will be with Edison sincerely from now on! Then the Scott family will be completely tied us!!!

“Not only that.” Pablo was complacent, with a look of planning and control on his face, “With the help of the Scott family, we can get rid of Boris and destroy the Lewis family, and we can also avenge Kasen!”

Princess Lia didn’t care about revenge. Anyway, it was not her son.

She only cared about whether her Edison could join the Scott family and sit on the throne of

Wesbruck!

“Yeah, Kasen died so badly. He was killed by Boris’ people at such a young age…” She pretended to be sad and sighed.

Speaking this, Pablo covered his heart. “I must let Boris to go to hell!”

“Don’t worry. As long as this plan goes smoothly, he will end up miserable!” Princess Lia’s eyes revealed an ambitious light. “Pablo, I misunderstood you. But it’s too long to wait another month…”

Pablo understood what she meant. “We have to wait!”

“But Boris and Catherine have teamed up and are robbing our project like crazy! We lose a lot of money every day! If it continues to develop like this, after a month, there will be very little left of our many years of property!”

Pablo also hated it, but he valued future benefits more, so he scolded her, “Nothing ventured, nothing gained! We do lose money today. But we will have a lot of money in the future when we are bound to the Scott family.”

These words made Princess Lia tremble, as if someone had patted her head.

She suddenly realized.

That was right!

That was the Scott family!

Since five years ago, they had tried everything possible to make a connection with the Scott family!

When Edison became the son-in-law of the Scott family, with the Scott Company, not only money and power, he could have anything he wanted!

“Okay!” She clenched her fists and said viciously, “Then wait for another month! Let Boris grab projects. Anyway, he won’t be arrogant for long. And those projects should be regarded as condolence to him in advance!”

Even though Princess Lia was mentally prepared, slie lost at least one item every day for the next week, which still made her almost have a heart attack.

A week later, there were only two businesses left that she had operated for many years!

Boris’ methods were brutal and terrifying. It was simply an outspoken robbery!

Boris took what he could and destroyed what he couldn’t.

In a word, no one could earn money that he could not!

Total hegemony!

Princess Lia was so angry that she couldn’t sleep or eat. That night, she finally couldn’t help crying to Edison.novelbin

Chapter 488 No One Can Bully Boris 

When Princess Lia opened the door of the ward, she still had a decent smile on her face.

Looking around but not seeing Zlana, Princess Lia’s smile disappeared in an instant. She immediately burst into tears.

“Edison…” She walked tremblingly to the side of the bed, “Did Zlana stay?”

Edison knew what she meant. “No. We’re not in a relationship. I don’t want to force her.”

“You haven’t confirmed your relationship yet?” Princess Lia said helplessly. But because she was choking up, her tone didn’t sound so strong. “Isn’t she cursed? She comes to see you every day. She must love you very much. You should take advantage of this opportunity to sleep with her, which is safer!”

“Mom, it’s you who said don’t be impatient.” Edison used what she had said to remind her.

“But you can be so slow!” Princess Lia clasped her hands and taught him her own experience. “You don’t understand women. A woman will fall in love with whom she sleeps with. A lot of women are like that.”

Edison didn’t like her words. He glanced at her and said, “Ziana is not an ordinary woman. She is smart and sensitive. I have to take it step by step to ensure that she doesn’t notice anything strange. If she doesn’t take the initiative, I will wait. When she takes the initiative, then, from body to heart, she will be mine in the future.”

Princess Lia looked at his obstinate handsome face, feeling agitated in her heart. She couldn’t understand him.

He even cursed Ziana, why was he acting affectionate now?

But Ziana was indeed smart. Princess Lia felt that it was right to be careful.

Only by pleasing Ziana could they keep their good life for the rest of their lives!

“Okay,” Imperial Princess Lia didn’t want to offend Edison. After all, the relationship between them had only recently been eased. She choked up and continued to speak softly, “You have your own plans, I don’t worry.”

“You came to see me in the middle of the night. What’s the matter?” Edison changed the subject. His eyes fell on her red eyes. “Why did you cry?”

Princess Lia gritted her teeth angrily. “It’s because of that bastard Boris.”

‘Did he attack you?” Edison was so shocked that he ŝit up straight.

Seeing that he misunderstood, Princess Lia shook her head quickly, but she still couldn’t help wiping her tears. “That’s not true. But what he did hurts my heart more than hitting me! Oh. I feel heartache!”

Thinking of Jackson’s report these days, Edison realized. “Those projects were only temporarily snatched away by him. You don’t have to worry too much about momentary gains and losses. Everyone has a brilliant moment. Don’t take a moment as forever. If the plan goes smoothly, we’ll get back everything he took today.”

Princess Lia was relieved by her son and felt a little more at ease.

She pursed her mouth aggrieved. “I understand, but I’m afraid of any unexpected incidents. What if he wasn’t killed by the Scott family…’

“That’s not going to happen.” Edison interrupted what she was about to say. “It can only succeed. And we will succeed.”novelbin

Princess Lia had never seen such a firm and persistent expression on his face..

She was startled and nodded solemnly. “You are right. We must succeed. And Boris must die!”

“Is there anything else?” Edison returned to his calm and indifferent appearance.

Princess Lia finally stopped crying, and now she started again. “Edison, since your relationship with Ziana is developing steadily, why don’t you leave the hospital as soon as possible?”

Edison’s inquiring eyes fell on her face, “Did father ask me?”

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words she heard this, Princess Lia’s complexion became depressed. and hopelessly.

Her tone was full of complaints, resentment, and unwillingness. “It would be great if he asked about you!”

Edison pursed his lips, loneliness flashed in his eyes.

Princess Lia didn’t pay attention, and continued to complain, “Ever since Catherine and Boris teamed, she was more popular than ever. There are many people of Royalty who are optimistic about this hypocritical eldest princess. Now they were even more submissive to her. Your father was more partial!

“It’s obvious that she grabbed our projects, but he praised her a lot. Now he only has this eldest princess in his eyes, and he doesn’t remember you at all! If you don’t come out of the hospital, I’m afraid he will make ‘a will and pass the throne to Catherine!”

Edison clenched his fists excitedly and made a decision. “I’ll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow!”

“Okay!” Princess Lia hurriedly added, “If you leave for too long, the followers of you will be disturbed. I’m afraid they will find another way.”

Speaking of this, Princess Lia gave a cold snort. “Especially that Duke Bourne. After we broke off the engagement, he actually got closer and closer to Catherine! I don’t think he’s loyal to you. Why don’t we have him killed?”

“I don’t want to take care of this matter. It’s up to you.” Edison closed his eyes, as if he was very tired. “Mom, I want to rest.”

Princess Lia came here tonight mainly to persuade Edison to leave the hospital.

Seeing that he agreed now, she did not stay any longer.

She stood up. “Then you have a good rest. And don’t forget to go out of the hospital tomorrow.”

Edison didn’t speak.

Princess Lia looked at him a while and then left the ward coquettishly.

The ward returned to silence.

In hotel, Ziana sat at the table, staring at the phone and waiting for a long time.

The mobile phone was quiet. And there was no more eavesdropping.

Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, and leaned her whole body lazily on the back of the chair.

It had been a while since Boris robbed Edison’s property.

In the past week, when she returned to the hotel almost every night, she could hear Jackson reporting to Edison.

But today, Ziana gained an extra surprise.

What was the plan that Princess Lia mentioned?

What kind of plan could make Boris return everything?

Why did they say that the Scott family would kill Boris? Could it be… Was that plan related to the Scott family?

Ziana’s slender hands tapped on the table.

Ziana was thinking.

At first, she thought about this matter, but then she couldn’t help but think of Boris.

Boris had always been strong. But his recent behavior in Wesbruck was very domineering and rampant!

He was obviously on other people’s territory, and he was just a president of Lewis Company, but he dared to ignore the power of Western Royalty and show no mercy at all.

No wonder Princess Lia and Edison would find ways to fight back.

Anyway, they were from Western Royalty. What if Boris couldn’t stand it?

Ziana thought of this, and suddenly slapped the table with her hand.

She had to tell that crazy man to beware of Princess Lia and Edison, and make preparations early!

Boris was hers. And she was the only one, who could bully him. Others hurt Boris was to challenge her!

However, how to remind him?

If she confessed to Boris directly, he would definitely be worried about her safety and would not let her stay with Edison any longer.

Ziana thought hard.

Although they still lived together and even slept in the same bed, Boris left early and returned late, so they never met each other.

At this moment, there was the sound of a door opening.

Was Boris back?

Why was he back so early today?

Ziana stood up eagerly, and was about to rush out of the bedroom in a few steps.

She hadn’t seen Boris for several days, and she missed him terribly.

She would be happy to see him just once.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a female voice sounded first.

Chapter 489 Ziana Was Generous 

“Mr. Lewis, these days, not much property is left under Edison’s name with our intervention!”

In the woman’s voice, there was the satisfaction of fulfilling her ambition.

She couldn’t hide her excitement and said proudly, “The current Princess Lia is probably angry. Haha!”

Ziana immediately judged that the person who came was Catherine, the eldest princess in Wesbruck.

Knowing that they were in a cooperative relationship, she felt relaxed.

But thinking of the fight between Boris and Edison, she quietly leaned against the door and listened to them secretly.

Outside the door.

Boris said with a hoarse and cello-like voice, “How much property do they have?”

Catherine carefully said, “As far as I know, there should be at least two big businesses. Both of

which are in the name of Princess Lia. As for the small business, there are less than ten left, and they rely on the two big businesses. We don’t need to deal with the ten small businesses. When the big business fall, they will not live long. And then the small business is nothing.”

Boris snorted. His following sentence was ruthless and decisive, like a noble emperor without anger but prestige.

“Tomorrow, they will be over!”

Catherine looked at him excitedly. “That’s great! Mr. Lewis! I’ve seen you are so powerful.”

Her face flushed as she spoke, and she showed a woman’s shyness and enchantment in her voice. “Mr. Lewis, you are handsome, rich, and powerful. Every woman will fall in love with you. Someone doesn’t appreciate you, but I do. If you need a woman, you can contact me at any time. And I am willing to give you what you want.”

Ziana, who was eavesdropping inside, suddenly put on a long face.

Catherine, an old woman, dared to say that?

At this time, footsteps sounded outside.

Ziana’s heart skipped a beat. They wouldn’t do anything, would they?

She was anxious and afraid and opened the door quietly like a thief.

The situation outside was immediately evident.

Catherine twisted her slender waist like a snake, walked towards the sofa, and sat beside Boris.

“Mr. Lewis.” She leaned forward slightly. “I heard that Miss Scott broke up with you. You are so pitiful. I didn’t expect her to be with Edison. Miss Scott had no good taste. I am different from her. I will choose you to be with. You are charming. Even if I can only stay a night with you, I will do that.”

“Besides, I am the eldest princess in Wesbruck and have a noble status. It’s your honor to have a night with me.”

Catherine paused abruptly, cast a meaningful look at him, and then her soft hand was attached to his knees.

Boris originally put on a long face but smiled suddenly.

He leaned on the sofa, with his long arms draped casually, and looked at her with slightly raised eyebrows.

Seeing that he didn’t refuse, Catherine became more courageous and slowly rubbed her hands up his knees.

After a moment of rubbing, her neck was tightly clasped by a strong hand the next second.

She couldn’t breathe instantly!

“Ouch!”

Boris pinched her neck and pulled her down. Catherine rolled off the sofa to the ground and knelt before him!

“Mr. Lewis. Please…”

Catherine looked at him in panic. Because of the lack of oxygen, her eyes overflowed with crystal tears physiologically.

Boris turned a blind eye to it, opened his thin lips lightly, and spoke sharply and mockingly, “Do you want to have a night with me?”

His critical eyes examined her sharply up and down.

Catherine felt as if someone had stripped her naked, which embarrassed her.

However, Boris snorted softly. “You are disgusting. I don’t want to look at you, not mention to have a night with you. Catherine, you have to put yourself in the right position. You know who you are and should know how you look in others’ eyes. If you want to continue to be my partner, any other thoughts about me. Let’s get what we need and reach a win-win cooperation.”

Boris leaned forward, his slender hand exerting more force.

A gust of coldness densely crawled up Catherine’s back!

She trembled uncontrollably.

Boris’ voice was like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter. “But if you want to be my woman, I will strangle you right now.”

“No!” Catherine was terrified. With all her strength, she let out a hoarse cry.

This man was too scary!

He was like a demon descending into the world!

Catherine didn’t dare anymore!

This time she felt the fear of death!

There were tens of thousands of men in the world. Although they were not as good as him, they were not as dangerous as him!

At this moment, Catherine regretted that she was obsessed with him and provoked him. She cried bitterly. “Mr. Lewis, I am wrong! Please let me go. I will do whatever you order me to do and won’t make trouble.”

“Get out!” Boris threw her to the ground in disgust.

Catherine narrowly escaped death, ignoring the pain, quickly turned over and left.

The door slammed shut.

Boris took the wipes from the table and slowly wiped his fingers.

“Come out!” He suddenly whispered.

Ziana, who was hiding in the bedroom, shivered. Did he call her fiercely?

Before she could move, Boris threw away the wet wipe, got up quickly, and walked towards her.

Ziana was about to close the door.

However, it was slow.

Boris pushed open the door, stopped her movement, squeezed in, grabbed her hand, and pulled her into his arms.

His movements were smooth and done in one go.

Ziana looked up at him in astonishment, twisting and struggling. novelbin

When Boris hugged her, her back was pressed against the door panel. He wrapped her in his arms and looked down at her.

His eyes were cold, and no one could see any emotion. “You watch other women tease your man? Ziana, you are so generous!”

The sour tone contained anger and jealousy.

Hearing this, Ziana suddenly got angry.

She snorted angrily. “I saw you enjoy it. I was worried that jumping out would spoil your good deed!”

Boris got angry. “Do you see me enjoy it?”

“I saw it!” Ziana pointed to her own eyes and glared at him fiercely. She became increasingly angry and said, “Mr. Lewis, you are charming. There are women like you wherever you go and want to sleep a night with you. I have never seen a man who can attract many women like you!”

Boris locked his frosty eyes on her body and said angrily, “So what? So what if I attract so many women? Don’t forget. You broke up with me! Now, I am single. Whether I fall in love or sleep with other women, it has nothing to do with you! So Miss Scott, what right do you have to be so angry?”

“I!”

Ziana was furious. Looking at his expressionless face, she became increasingly angry.

Boris was a bastard!

In just a few days, he called her Miss Scott strangely!

He kept saying that he loved her and that they had a past where they lived and died together. He turned his head, forgot about it, and even said such stupid words!

Men are fickle things!

She raised her hand and shook it in his face.

Boris was faster and quickly caught her.

He raised her hand above her head, met her red eyes, squeezed her chin with one hand, and looked at her carefully.

“Why are you angry?” He snorted. “Don’t you only have Edison in your heart now? You are with him -all day long. Miss Scott, you have a new lover now. Why are you angry because of me? Could it be unforgettable to you?

Chapter 490 Mr. Collins 

Ziana shuddered violently.

She stared at Boris, trying to see if he knew something from his expression.

But Boris was the best at hiding his emotions. His handsome and cold face was emotionless.

Only his eyes showed a faint mockery..

“No.” Ziana was stung by such gazes and calmed down. “Mr. Lewis, you are not unforgettable.”

“Then why are you so angry?” He repeated.

Ziana raised her eyebrows and looked at him. “I don’t want you to dirty my place! Mr. Lewis, if you are going to flirt with other women, please don’t bring them here. Or I’ll beat you out!”

Boris reminded her with a sneer. “If I remember correctly, this is the room I booked.”

Ziana choked up, showing embarrassment. But they were arguing, and she didn’t want him to win.

“Hmph! Did you book this room? Fine, I’ll leave now! I don’t want to live here!”

After she finished speaking, she wanted to push him away. But he didn’t move. His hands still imprisoned her, making it difficult for her to move.

Ziana said angrily, “Let me go!”

“You are not allowed to go now,” Boris said quietly with a cold tone, “Miss Scott, I am a businessman and never do business at a loss. You were my woman before, so it is reasonable to live here. But you broke up with me. After that, is it inappropriate to live here for so long in vain?”

Hearing his words, Ziana snorted and said, “How much is it? I’ll transfer it to you.”

“I’m not short of money,” Boris said.

Ziana looked at him with a half-smile.

His eyes fell on her undisguisedly. “You can have a night with me.”

Ziana laughed. “Mr. Lewis, will you be short of women? As long as you wave your hand, many women will pounce on you like the one just now.”

“I’m not a man who can have sleep with any woman.” He stroked her cheek with his slender fingers. “Miss Scott, I still remember you cooperated with me very well. It will be perfect if you sleep with me. Accompanying me tonight can barely pay the room fee.”

He was unkind and spoke rather harshly.

Ziana smiled angrily, but an inspiration flashed in her mind.

She warned with a stern face. “Boris, I am with Edison now. You have robbed him of so many projects these days. If you sleep with me, he will never let you go!”

Boris’ brows and eyes were instantly tinged with coldness, and his voice was piercing. “Am I afraid of him?”

“He is from the Western Royalty. And his mother is Princess Lia, who became a noble concubine. Let me tell you. They are furious now and are already trying to deal with you. You are just the president of Lewis Company. If they fight against you, you will suffer a lot,” Ziana said angrily.

But she deliberately told Boris about that. He would be wary of Princess Lia and Edison, right?

“Then let them come here,” Boris said indifferently. Suddenly, he paused slightly. “Are you reminding me?”

Ziana pretended to be confused. “I’m warning you! Please don’t touch me. If you touch me, Edison will kill you!”

Boris looked at her intensely. Suddenly, his palm came in from the hem of her clothes. “If I can have a night with you, I will be willing to die.”

“You!”

All her words were sealed with a kiss.

He kissed hard, and soon her brain was starved of oxygen. Ziana was in a daze and felt she was carried to the bed.

The long-lost intimacy was charming and crazy.

After it was over, Boris leaned against the head of the bed and looked down at her.

Ziana pretended to sleep. Boris was too smart, and she was afraid that if she said more, he would find out everything.

However, even with her eyes closed, she could still feel that domineering and intense gaze.

Suddenly.

There his phone rang.

Boris glanced at the incoming call and left the bedroom with his mobile phone.

Ziana opened her eyes quietly, looking at his back with her mouth pursed.

He answered the phone, and he held back the conversation to her.

Could her acting skills be so superb that he believed she loved Edison so much? Maybe Boris thought she would report everything to Edison.

Boris came to the balcony and connected the phone. “Biber.”

“Boris.” Biber’s voice was as calm as ever. “I found Mr. Collins’ man. His name is Kerry Wood, Kerry was by Mr. Collins’ side when Mr. Collins was shot and died in the gang chaos. But when I asked Kerry about this matter, he refused to answer.”

Boris took out a cigarette and lit it, thinking deeply.

He knew how capable Biber was.

Kerry refused to answer. Biber had plenty of ways to let Kerry say everything. Then why did Biber call Boris?

Boris slowly exhaled a misty white smoke. “What does he want?”

Biber chuckled. “It’s easy to talk to a smart man. He recognized me. Let me tell you. If you want to know the whereabouts of Mr. Collins, you have to come and see him in person,

Boris’ original casual expression suddenly became serious.

Boris stubbed out the cigarette, and a cold light burst out of his cold eyes. “Does he know that I’m looking for Mr. Collins?”

“It means he knows the grievances between you and Mr. Collins, and he may know about the kidnapping five years ago.” Biber nodded. “So, you’d better come here.”

“I’ll arrange it right away.”

Boris hung up the phone hastily and ordered Nell to prepare a private jet and take off to Galia in an hour.

Biber’s phone call was a significant clue.

He was running out of time, so Boris didn’t stop there, returned to his room, and quickly put on his clothes.

Seeing he was in such a hurry, Ziana wondered if something had happened.

Could it be Princess Lia and Edison started fighting against Boris?

Ziana looked at him and said with more concern than curiosity, “Where are you going?”

Boris glanced at her. Her face was still flushed with blush, and she looked very pitiful.

“What? After sleeping with me, you started to take care of me,” He said viciously, “Or do you want to have another night with me?”

Ziana was speechless.

Boris didn’t tell her anything. He talked about other things and didn’t say a word about her question.

“Are you afraid and want to run away?” Ziana could only provoke him. “You are afraid that Princess Lia and Edison will attack you.”

“I don’t know the feeling of being afraid in my life.” He interrupted her and suddenly walked in front of her with long legs.

Ziana looked at him steadfastly, not knowing what he would do. “What are you doing?”

He gently rubbed her head with his big palm. “Have a good sleep.”

After speaking, he turned off all the lights in the room.

Then Boris withdrew his warm palm immediately. The sound of footsteps faded away and finally could not be heard. novelbin

Ziana stared blankly at the ceiling. It was so late. Where would he go?

Nell waited already downstairs.

When Boris got into the car, Nell drove to the airport.

Six hours later.

The plane arrived in Oia County in eastern Galia.

Biber was bathed in the twilight morning light, and his body stood tall.

When Boris approached, Biber nodded and said, “Boris, I have an appointment with Kerry at eight o’clock tonight, and I will take you to the hotel to rest first

The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee By Vera Whitehead Chapter 471-480

Chapter 471 Must Kill Ziana 

Winifred didn’t want Edison to know her vicious thoughts.

Winifred was angry and jealous. However, she couldn’t do anything but leave the hospital.

Winifred knew that she must seek help from her father to deal with Ziana.

Winifred drove the car very fast. She ignored many red lights all the way back home. Winifred cried loudly just as she entered the house.

“Dad, I don’t want to live anymore! There’s no point in being alive! I’m going to die!”

The servants at home heard and gathered around to comfort Winifred.

“Miss Bourne, what happened?”

“Duke Bourne went out and hasn’t come back yet!”

“Miss Bourne, don’t be impulsive! If something happens to you, Duke Bourne will be sad.”

Servants said a lot to comfort Winifred.

Winifred cried loudly. As long as she thought of Edison’s concern for Ziana, Winifred felt sad.

Winifred thought,

I have paid so much for Edison. Why does he refuse to respond to my love for him?

What magic power does Ziana have!>

Winifred’s voice became hoarse from crying. She didn’t have any strength to cry. She just laid on the sofa motionlessly.

This was what Duke Bourne saw when he came back.

Duke Bourne was frightened immediately. He quickly came to the sofa, muttering distressedly,

“Winey, what’s wrong with you? What happened? Just tell me! No matter who bullies you, I will help you teach him or her a lesson! My baby girl, tell me what happened!”

Duke Bourne panicked. His hands were trembling. He didn’t know where to put them.

Duke Bourne gently stroked Winifred’s pale face. He said, “My baby girl, what’s the matter with you? Say it! Seeing you be like this, I feel sad!”

Winifred finally couldn’t hold it on anymore. She sobbed and said, “Dad…”

“I am here.”

Duke Bourne responded quickly. At the same time, he quietly heaved a sigh of relief.

Duke Bourne thought,

With the gentlest voice, Duke Bourne coaxed Winifred patiently and said, “What’s the matter? Who made you angry?”

“Dad, I don’t want to live anymore!” Winifred cried again and said, “I am so sad! I really want to die! It doesn’t matter if I die. But, Dad, what will you do then? I also don’t want to be alive with so much pain!”

“Don’t be discouraged!” Duke Bourne comforted her and said, “Who! Who makes you so sad? Tell me. I will deal with everything well for you!”

“Really?” Winifred asked with a sob.

Duke Bourne clapped his chest, and assured Winifred in a very deep voice, “Of course it’s true! I will protect you! Winey, who hurt you? I will definitely teach her or him a good lesson!”

“It’s…” Winifred cried and said, “It’s Ziana!”

Duke Bourne frowned. With a slightly hesitant expression, he said, “It’s her again?”

“It’s her!” Winifred heard the worry from Duke Bourne’s tone. knew what he was afraid of, and said hastily, “Dad, it’s her! She has always been against me! Edison didn’t get engaged to me because of her! Ziana is a slut woman!”

“Dad, you have to think of a way for me. If I can’t marry Edison, I will kill myself!”

“Nonsense!” Duke Bourne scolded, “Don’t talk about death easily! You are the apple of my eye. If you are dead, how can I live well?”

Winifred bit her lower lip and whimpered, “I want to be together with Edison! However, Edison only likes Ziana now! Dad! Ziana must die. Otherwise, Edison will never know how good I am!”

Duke Bourne didn’t know what to do.

Duke Bourne knew that Winifred and Ziana were at odds.

Duke Bourne thought, However, Ziana is the only daughter of Scott Company!

If something happens to Ziana, Scott Company will destroy the whole Wesbruck!>

Duke Bourne didn’t dare to hurt Ziana.

“Dad!” Seeing that Duke Bourne was silent, Winifred grabbed his arm and said, “Are you scared?”

Duke Bourne sighed and said, “Of course not, it’s just that killing her must be a long-term plan.

“No! I want her to die now!” Winifred yelled anxiously, “I can’t wait a minute! I can’t lose Edison! Dad, you must help me! You are my dear father! If you don’t help me, then I will die now!”

“Well, I promise!” Duke Bourne held Winifred’s hands and said, “I must kill her!”

“Really?” Winifred smiled finally and said, “Dad, you didn’t lie to me?”

When Duke Bourne saw Winifred smile, he couldn’t help laughing and replied, “Of course I won’t lie to you.”

“Dad, you’re the best!” Winifred threw herself into his arms, “Then I’ll just wait for the good news!”

Duke Bourne patted Winifred on the back. He smiled. However, his eyes were full of worry.

Although Duke Bourne agreed, he knew that it was not easy to kill Ziana.

It was not easy even if Duke Bourne had great power in Wesbruck.

The strength of the Scott family was far more terrifying than anyone imagined!

Duke Bourne thought that he had great power in Wesbruck. However, it was uncertain who had the greatest power.

Duke Bourne was anxious about this for two whole days.

Winifred didn’t urge Duke Bourne. However, when she saw him, she pouted in an aggrieved manner, which still made Duke Bourne feel pressured.

Just as Duke Bourne was thinking about how to kill Ziana secretly, he unexpectedly received a call from Catherine, the eldest princess.

Duke Bourne felt extremely surprised.

He had very little contact with Catherine because he supported Edison. It could be said that the relationship between Catherine and Duke Bourne was hostile.

Duke Bourne felt stressed when he received Catherine’s call.

Duke Bourne asked, “Princess Catherine? What’s the matter?”

Catherine’s voice was as polite and distant as ever. She said, “Duke Bourne, I called you because ! want to treat you to a meal. I hope you can agree.”

Duke Bourne frowned.

He thought, It’s certainly not as simple as eating a meal!>

Duke Bourne thought for a while. He wanted to find an excuse to refuse. However, Catherine seemed to have guessed what Duke Bourne wanted to say. She said first, “Duke Bourne, if you don’t come, I’m afraid you will regret it. I remind you that this matter is about your daughter. You can think it over carefully.”

When Catherine mentioned Winifred, Duke Bourne’s eyes turned cold.

Duke Bourne said without thinking, “OK, please tell me the time and address.”

Catherine finished speaking with a smile, and hung up the phone politely.

Catherine looked at the man sitting not far away. With legs crossed, the man was holding a cup. He looked elegant and handsome.

Catherine said respectfully, “Mr. Lewis, I told him. He will arrive in half an hou

Chapter 472 Edison’s Disguise. 

More than half an hour later, Duke Bourne drove to Maple Mansion.

The waiter at the door had been waiting here early. When Duke Bourne got off the car, the waiter took the initiative to greet Duke Bourne and lead the way.

Duke Bourne had a stern face. He seemed calm, but in fact, he was nervous.

Duke Bourne still didn’t guess what this meal was for.

The waiter quickly took Duke Bourne to a room, and knocked on the door. Then, a woman’s calm voice came from inside.

“Come in.”

The waiter turned sideways and said, “Duke Bourne, please.”

Duke Bourne pushed open the door, and walked in slowly.

As soon as he entered, he saw a large screen with a painting of landscapes, which was extremely exquisite. There was even white smoke lingering in the air. Duke Bourne felt like walking in a pine forest. It made people who entered the room feel relaxed and happy.

“Is it Duke Bourne?” Catherine’s voice sounded suddenly, bringing Duke Bourne back to his senses in an instant.

Duke Bourne responded, and quickly walked around the screen. He didn’t expect that there would be another man in the private room.

Right behind the long table, a man in a suit and leather shoes sat there.

The dim light illuminated the man’s perfect face.

The man looked up. His eyes were sharp and dark.

Just one glance, Duke Bourne was frightened.

Duke Bourne staggered back two steps, and said in surprise, “Mr. Lewis?”

Duke Bourne looked at Catherine in disbelief, then looked at Boris again with a strange expression.

He hesitated, and asked tentatively, “Mr. Lewis, you’re not a fool?”

Boris chuckled softly and said, “I don’t want to be a fool anymore.”

Duke Bourne thought Boris was brilliant!

Then, he understood instantly!

He thought, He has been playing dumb before!

So…

Duke Bourne reacted very quickly, and he thought of something that happened at the engagement banquet. novelbin

He thought,

Could it be that he wants to ask for trouble now?>

Duke Bourne was a little nervous. However, thinking of his identity, he believed that Boris would not dare to do anything to him.

Duke Bourne thought, After all, I am a noble duke!>

Thinking of this, Duke Bourne deliberately straightened his back and said, “Mr. Lewis, it is really a strange hobby. Why do you pretend to be stupid?”

Boris said casually, “I just want to do so to tease real fools.”

Hearing that, Duke Bourne was speechless.

Catherine looked at Duke Bourne with a smile, and said slowly to smooth things over, Bourne, please take a seat. The food is ready, and we will wait for you to come and start the meal.”

Duke Bourne was unhappy because of Boris’ words.

“Duke Although he sat down, his tone was very unfriendly. Duke Bourne said, “I am not that honored. Besides, it’s just a meal. Since you invited me here, why don’t you tell me what you want to say directly!”

Catherine got mad.

She thought, “This is what I hate Duke Bourne the most! He is just the deputy leader of the military affairs in Wesbruck. How can he be so arrogant and treat me like that?

Catherine pursed her lips, looked at Boris next to her, and asked, “Mr. Lewis…”

Without looking up, Boris poured himself a cup of coffee slowly, as if staying out of the matter.

Catherine thought for a while, took a deep breath, and continued in a gentle voice, “Since Duke Bourne said so, let’s get down to business. I invite you to come here today to show you a video.”

“I haven’t come to watch a video!” Duke Bourne refused.

Catherine ignored him. She found the video, and directly clicked the play button.

It was the part where the maid accused Edison.

The longer Duke Bourne looked, the more angry he becaine.

What the maid said was very clear.

It was Edison who asked her to drug Winifred!

Duke Bourne slapped the table and said, “Impossible! How is this possible? I don’t believe it! Prince Edison has always been very good to Winey. They grew up together. He protects her very much. It is impossible to treat her like this!”

Catherine sneered and said, “If you are not a duke and don’t have military strength, do you think. Edison would still be engaged to your daughter?”

“If he got engaged to Winey because of this, then he has no reason to hurt her!” Duke Bourne still couldn’t believe it.

Duke Bourne thought,

“Because he found someone who can support him more, he has long looked down on you. Getting engaged to Winifred will only hinder his further development,” Catherine said, “My younger brother seems to have no desires. Actually, he is smarter and more cunning than anyone else.”

Duke Bourne has spent most of his life in politics, struggling all the way up.

With a little reminder, he would soon understand the stakes.

Duke Bourne asked, “He wants to get the support from the Scott family?”

“Compared to the Scott family, a duke is nothing,” Catherine smiled and said, “And he has long wanted to get support from the Scott family. Duke Bourne, you are now betrayed, and your daughter’s reputation is also ruined because of his tricks. Your daughter is laughed at by the higher class of Wesbruck.

Are you sure you don’t want to take revenge?”

Duke Bourne was shocked. He stood up abruptly, and walked out without saying a word.

Catherine shouted from behind, “Duke Bourne, go back and think about it carefully. If you want revenge, cooperate with us as soon as possible,”

The door closed again.

The room was eerily quiet.

Catherine watched Boris put down the coffee cup, and said in a low voice, “Mr. Lewis, will he cooperate with us?”

“Use him if he cooperates, and let him lose his power if he doesn’t cooperate.” Boris said calmly, as if he was not talking about a major event that determined one’s future of life, “Inform him that I want his answer tomorrow. If he doesn’t want to cooperate with us, he will never have the chance to cooperate with us.”

Catherine nodded respectfully and said, “OK.”

Boris stood up and walked out in silence.

Catherine wanted to persuade him to stay, but in the end she didn’t say anything. Catherine watched Boris leave.

After he left, Catherine called Duke Bourne.

“Duke Bourne, you must give me an answer before tomorrow.”

Duke Bourne hung up the phone and felt stressed. He drove home absent-mindedly all the way. Then, he found that Winifred was very drunk.

Winifred was crying while drinking. When she saw Duke Bourne coming, she raised her face and sobbed, “Dad. When will you kill Ziana? I want Edison… Without him, I will die!”

Duke Bourne was sad.

He walked over to take the wine bottle away. Duke Bourne hugged Winifred and said softly, “My silly daughter! You have been cheated! Edison doesn’t like you at all. That you were drugged, and the engagement was forced to be canceled, are all because of Edison!”

r.”

Chapter 473 Let Him Lost Everything 

Winifred froze suddenly.

She raised her head with tears streaming down her face. Winifred stared at Duke Bourne. After a while, she squeezed some words.

“Dad? What did you just say?”

Duke Bourne felt more sad.

He had never seen such a decadent and desperate expression on Winifred’s face.

For a moment, Duke Bourne even regretted telling her all this.

Duke Bourne thought, But the person who hurt her was Edison!

If she doesn’t know his true face, she will only be hurt more deeply in the end!>

Thinking of this, Duke Bourne hated Edison very much.

Duke Bourne supported Edison a lot!

Ever since he knew that Winifred liked Edison, he almost did everything to pave the way for him!

Duke Bourne won over other officials for Edison, built his own power for Edison, and even claimed to be Edison’s backer.

Almost every prominent figure in Wesbruck treated Edison good for Duke Bourne’s sake.

What was Duke Bourne doing so much for?

He just hoped that Edison can treat Winifred well!

However, Duke Bourne didn’t expect that Edison would be so disingenuous!

Duke Bourne hated Edison. His eyes even turned red.

“Dad!” Winifred shook Duke Bourne in disbelief, wailing and pleading. She said, “What did you just say? What did you just say? What did Edison do? What does my being drugged have to do with

Edison… Tell me, tell me!”

Duke Bourne loved Winifred very much. So, he felt so sad.

He hugged Winifred and wiped her tears. Duke Bourne said, “Winey, you have been deceived! I was also deceived by him! Edison is not a good person! He is a mercenary and cruel beast! From the beginning to the end, he never really liked you. He just uses you as a tool to get what he wants!”

“I don’t believe it! It’s not true!” Winifred shouted, holding her head.

Duke Bourne hugged Winifred even tighter. He said, “Dad knows you are in pain, but it is the truth. Edison used you. Now he wants to get support from Ziana, so in order to get rid of you, he bribed the maid next to you to drug you. He wants to destroy you, so that he can justifiably break the engagement!

“He is so vicious! In this way, even if he breaks the engagement, he won’t be accused, but will be sympathized with!”

“What did you do wrong? How can he treat you like this just because you like him? He can refuse to marry you, but he can’t hurt you like this! Now you are laughed at by everyone in Wesbruck. Many people are scolding you. As long as he cares about your feelings, he will not be so cruel to you!

“Winey, stop being obsessed with him!”

Duke Bourne finished speaking angrily. Then, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and played the video for Winifred.

In the quiet room, the maid’s complaint suddenly sounded.

Winifred stared blankly and listened.

She suddenly felt that this world was so strange and terrifying!

Winifred thought, How can he be so ruthless? How can he find someone to drug me and ask another man to sleep with me in order to break off the engagement?

He clearly knows that my favorite person is him!

Could it be that my love, in his eyes, is so insignificant that it can be ignored so easily?>

Winifred was shocked. Suddenly, she hit her head heavily.

Duke Bourne’s tone changed. He said with fright, “Winey! What are you doing!”

“I hate him!” Winifred roared hoarsely, “I hate Edison! I want him to pay the price for what he did! Dad! Help me! He treats me so badly and lets me down. I can’t let him go so easily! Help me!”

“OK.” Duke Bourne also gritted his teeth with hatred and said, “We must not let him go!”

Winifred’s eyes were full of hatred. She said, “He is so unscrupulous in order to get power. Then I will let him lose everything!”

Winifred was looking forward to the day when Edison lost everything and knelt in front of her, begging for mercy!

Winifred drank a lot of wine before Duke Bourne came back. After learning that Edison had done such vicious thing to hurt her, she burst into tears again.

So it took a lot of energy.

When her mood gradually stabilized, Winifred soon fell asleep.

Duke Bourne stayed by her bed for a very long time. Finally, when he saw that it was late, he staggered out.

Duke Bourne’s wife died young, and Winifred was his only relative in this world.

He was willing to do anything to make his daughter happy.

If someone bullied Winifred, Duke Bourne would fight back at all costs!

Duke Bourne returned to his study, held his mobile phone for a long time, and then made a call.

After ringing for a few seconds, the other person picked up.

It was an elegant female voice. It seemed that she was not surprised that Duke Bourne would call. She said, “Have you made a decision?”

Duke Bourne got straight to the point and expressed his meaning, “I agree to cooperate with you.”

“Then I can only say, Duke Bourne, you made the right decision.” Catherine commented with a chuckle.

“My purpose is very simple. I just want to get revenge on Edison! He failed my daughter and made fun of me. Such a vicious and ungrateful man must be punished!” Duke Bourne said, “We can’t let someone like him be the monarch!”

“Of course he can’t!” When it came to the position of monarch of the Western Royalty, Catherine was ambitious, and her tone was filled with a natural sense of superiority, “An illegitimate child born of a lowly woman. How can he get the throne? As long as I am alive, the position of the monarch will never be his turn!”

“OK!” Duke Bourne said, “If I can help, just tell me!”

Catherine said, “I will notify you when the time comes. Besides, watch your daughter, and don’t let her ruin the plan.”

“No.” Duke Bourne said firmly, “She already knows Edison’s true face, and now she hates him.”

Catherine pursed her lips, and she became more confident about what she wanted.

She thought,

After hanging up the phone, Catherine immediately reported the matter to Boris. “Duke Bourne agreed to cooperate with us. When will we deal with Edison?”

Catherine want to ruin Edison inmediately.

Their father’s health condition was deteriorating. In order to avoid unexpected things happening,

Catherine knew that she must deal with Edison as soon as possible and sit on the throne of the monarch.

“Start with cooperation and companies under his name.” Boris stood on the balcony and took out a cigarette. He wanted to smoke at first, but when he thought of Ziana, he put it back. “When we cut off his financial source, he won’t have the time to compete for the woman I like.”

Catherine also thought so. She said, “He has been hospitalized recently. We can take advantage of this time to snatch his cooperation and ruin the project he is currently working on.

“Just do it like this. If he dares to use me, he must be prepared to lose everything.” Boris said with a sneer.

He planned everything meticulously. For the next half an hour, Boris was telling Catherine how to ruin Edison’s business step by step.

Boris’ plan was useful but dangerous.

Catherine broke out in a cold sweat just listening to it.

She thought, Anyone who dares to fight against him will die without knowing how to die!>

“It’s late.” Boris said a little tiredly, “Have you remembered everything I said?”

“Yes.” Catherine said convincingly, with a tone of admiration, “I will do it tomorrow, Mr. Lewis.

When I become the monarch of Wesbruck in the future, I will definitely help you a lot.”

Boris hung up the phone without saying a word.

While rubbing his neck, he picked up the red wine casually. When he raised his head and drank it all, he suddenly saw a small shadow through the huge window.

Chapter 474 Is She Bewitched 

Boris couldn’t help but pause, his body was slightly stiff, and he turned around slowly.

The little woman was standing not far behind him.

She was wearing a silk suspender nightgown, with two slender suspenders hanging loosely on her white and round shoulders.

Boris looked down, and in the next second, he quickly walked over and hugged her, “Why did you run out without wearing shoes?”

“I woke up and found you weren’t here.” Ziana held his neck and replied softly, “That’s why I came to look for you.”

“You are here, where else can I go?” He coaxed her softly, “When did you stand there?”

“It’s been more than ten minutes.” Ziana reckoned.

Boris raised his eyebrows, his expression was sloppy, but there was a bit of danger of being unclear, “Did you hear that?”

His dark eyes, seems smiling, looking on her face.

Ziana only thought for two seconds, then nodded obediently, “You want to deal with Edison Andrew?”

She was as candid and straightforward as he remembered.

Boris didn’t hide it from her, and asked bluntly, “Shouldn’t I deal with him?”

“Why?” Ziana didn’t understand, and asked innocently, “Why did you deal with him? Did he do anything?”

Boris had already hugged her and came to the bedroom.

He put her gently on the bed, and when he withdrew his hand, he pinched her hard buttocks, “You really don’t remember? Or are you trying to annoy me on purpose?”

Ziana’s face was red from being pinched by him, she kicked him twice with her two slender, white legs.

As soon as he succeeded, he got into bed.

She covered herself tightly, only showing her small head, her face was full of doubts and curiosity, “Why are you dealing with him?”

“You’re playing tricks on me again, aren’t you?” Boris reached into the quilt, grabbed her two slender ankles, and pulled down.

Ziana let out a low voice, and fell on her back on the bed.

He took advantage of the situation and pressed her up, kissed her a few times, panting, “He planned to harm me, drugged Winifred, and even gave me the drugged Winifred at his engagement banquet, shouldn’t I deal with him?”

“How could such a thing happen?” Ziana was shocked, “Did Edison do this? Why?”

Boris frowned, held her face in his hands, and looked at her deeply.

Ziana didn’t break free, her face was full of sorrow, “Why are you looking at me? Why don’t I have any impression of what you just said? Did it happen at the engagement banquet? Why are you telling me now?”

Boris was thoughtful, and tentatively said, “I told you then, and you saw it yourself.”

“Really?” Ziana asked him with a very confused expression.

Boris nodded, “It’s really, but you forgot it.”

Ziana rubbed her temples, and said distressedly, “My memory seems to be getting worse and worse.”

Boris also found out, but he asked the doctor to examine her and even took a film. Her head did not suffer from any pathological changes.

“Do you know why your memory is getting worse and worse?” Boris pinched her nose and hugged her in his arms. He had long arms and legs, and when he hugged her like this, Ziana looked like a baby.

She tilted her head to look at him, and sincerely asked, “Why?”

“Because you don’t sleep well in the middle of the night.” Boris put one hand on her eyes, like coaxing a child, “Sleep well, and your memory will improve.”

Ziana snorted softly, “That’s also because you didn’t accompany me in the middle of the night and went to make phone calls secretly, so I couldn’t sleep.”

“Am I come here to accompany you?”

“Are you going to deal with Edison?” Ziana was still not sleepy, talking casually.

Boris asked back, “do you feel sorry if I dealt with him?”

“What do I feel sorry for him for?” Ziana said, but her heart felt congested for a while, which made her irritated, “I don’t care about your business, I’m going to bed, so hurry up and tell me a bedtime story.”

“Okay, Miss Scott.”

Before Boris’ story was finished, the little lady beside him had already let out a long breath/ novelbin

His eyelids were heavy, but he didn’t feel sleepy at all.

Ziana’s memory has become a heart disease that bothers him.

At first he thought she was deliberately pretending not to remember, but today he was shocked to find that she really had no memory.

How so?

She always said she had a headache before, could it be that it caused her poor memory?

But he had read all her inspection reports carefully, and there was no problem at all.

If there is no pathological problem, then… Could it be the sequelae caused by hypnosis?

Boris picked up his mobile phone and told Nell Taylorr to contact the hypnotist. After doing all this, he closed his eyes preoccupied.

However, after sleeping for less than three hours, there was a sudden movement around him.

He was a light sleeper, and when he was with Ziana, he didn’t dare to sleep deeply, for fear that she would drink water when she was thirsty in the middle of the night, which always left her a nerve.

So when the person next to him sat up, he opened his eyes.

“What’s the matter? Are you thirsty and want to drink water?” He said hoarsely, “Lie down, and I’ll get you some water.”

“Click!”

Ziana turned on the light, lifted the quilt, and got out of bed without saying a word.

Boris frowned, sat up, looked at her strangely, “sweetheart?”

Ziana still didn’t speak, and didn’t even look back at him, she just went straight to the door, opened. it and walked out.

Boris had an ominous premonition, and quickly got up to follow.

With a few quick steps, he passed Ziana and stopped in front of her. When he looked down, his scalp felt a little numb.

Ziana opened her eyes, his eyes were empty, as if she couldn’t see him at all!

She was sleepwalking!?

He didn’t dare to make a sound and got out of the way.

Ziana seemed to be awake, put on her coat and high heels, and walked outside the hotel.

Boris didn’t care to change his clothes, and followed her step by step.

As soon as they went out, the two bodyguards were taken aback when they saw him, and then looked at Ziana in front of him with a slightly stiff expression, they have obviously also frightened.

He lowered his voice and ordered, “Go and drive the car to the hotel entrance and wait, hurry up!”

As soon as the bodyguard drove the car downstairs, Ziana and Boris walked out.

He took the initiative to open the car door, Ziana just sat in, and Boris quickly sat in from the other side.

The bodyguard asked, “Where are you going?”

Ziana nodded in a daze, “The hospital.”

Boris’ face turned cold.

The bodyguard looked at him from the rearview mirror, asking for his opinion with his eyes.

Boris closed his eyes and signaled to drive.

After the car started, Ziana leaned back on the chair, completely ignoring Boris.

Boris didn’t dare to wake her up, because he heard that when people are sleepwalking, they can’t be woken up.

For Ziana, he would rather be wrong than take risks.

The group arrived at the hospital.

Ziana got out of the car and went straight to the floor where Edison was. Boris had guessed it a long time ago, and stared at her with dark eyes.

As she stepped into the elevator, he knocked her out from behind.

The little lady fell limply into his arms.

He caught her steadily, stared at her deeply with downcast eyes, and finally realized the strangeness of the matter.

Why is Ziana so wicked? It’s like… as if she was bewitched!

Chapter 475 Contact Master Cody 

Because of the sleepwalking incident, after Boris took Ziana back to the hotel, he didn’t sleep at all in the middle of the night.

He sat by the bed and watched over her with a gloomy expression, but his eyes were full of pity and pain.

He didn’t know what happened to her, but no matter what happened to her, he would never give up on her.

He must find out what is going on!

The next morning.

Ziana woke up leisurely, and the first thing she did when she opened her eyes was to rub her neck.

“What’s wrong?” Boris saw her movement, gently helped her up, and asked with concern.

Ziana pursed her mouth and acted like a baby at him, “I don’t know why, but when I woke up after a nap, my neck hurts so much, please rub it for me.”

“It seems that you have forgotten what happened last night again.” Boris said firmly.

“What happened last night?” Ziana thought for a while, “Didn’t I sleep well last night?”

Boris’ warm palm landed on the back of her slender neck.

His movements were exceptionally gentle, and his strength was just right, she feels so comfortable that couldn’t help but groan.

Boris’ scalp was numb from her call, and he warned her with a straight face, “Don’t flirt with me in the early morning…”

Ziana turned her head and blinked at him, “Oh.”

Seeing her cute and sly look, Boris felt a flash of pain in his heart.

How he wished she was safe and sound!

But it turns out that something is wrong with her!

Something must be wrong!

Boris sighed, and held her in his arms silently.

Ziana looked up at him, exhaled hot air on his neck, “Why are you suddenly unhappy?”

As she spoke, she hugged him back and patted his back lightly with her two small hands, “Talk to me.”

Boris pursed his lips, “You sleepwalked last night.”

He didn’t expect Ziana to deny it directly, “It’s impossible, I have never sleepwalked since I was a child.”

Boris turned her around with a serious expression.

Ziana couldn’t help but look serious with his appearance, and her voice lost a bit of confidence, “Really?”

After Boris showed her the surveillance video, she said after a long time, “Where did I sleepwalk?”

“The hospital.”

Ziana raised her head in astonishment, the uneasiness in her heart getting stronger and stronger.

She held Boris’ hand tightly, and hesitated to speak several times.

“Talk to me if you have anything to say.” Boris held her back, his voice was clear and “You also found that something is wrong with you, didn’t you?”

Ziana’s eyes suddenly became warm!

He actually understands her!

She nodded excitedly, and said incoherently, “Yes… At first… I found it strange that I appeared in the hospital that day out of nowhere, but I told you, you don’t believe me, it’s really not… I didn’t want to go… But it seems that someone is calling me…”

What she said was messy, but Boris understood it.

He apologized to her, “I should have found out earlier, you should blame me for being too angry that day, because I was jealous of Edison, I was even more afraid that you cared about him more than me, so I didn’t believe you, if I believed you at that time, we can find a solution sooner.”

“Don’t blame yourself, I didn’t blame you.” Ziana comforted him in turn, “Now, do you know what happened to me?”

Boris quickly got back to business, “Apart from poor memory, do you have any other discomfort?”

“Sometimes I’m in a trance.” Ziana replied honestly.

Boris told her, “Two days ago, the doctor took a picture of you. From the picture, there is no organ disease in your head. I asked Nell to contact Professor Charlie who hypnotized us back then.”

Ziana understood what he meant, “Do you suspect a mental illness caused by hypnosis?”

“I can’t rule out this possibility.” Boris rubbed her head, “Don’t worry, no matter what happens, I’ll be here.”

Nell was very efficient in his work. That night, he took Professor Charlie to Wesbruck by private plane.

When Professor Charlie saw Boris and Ziana, he had a gratified smile on his face, “It seems that you two have reconciled. In this way, my conscience will no longer have to be condemned.”

When he was ordered to hypnotize the two of them, he kept lamenting that he was beating mandarin ducks with a stick.

Ziana smiled, and jokingly said, “he was chasing me so hard, I really can’t bear it.”

Professor Charlie laughed loudly, “It is his blessing to have you. After all, you are looking for me because…” Ziana’s expression became serious, and she told Professor Charlie about the latest anomaly.

Boris asked with concern, “Is she doing this because of hypnosis?”

“No.” Professor Charlie is very confident in his technique, “After my hypnosis, generally there will be no sequelae, Mr. Lewis, after you lifted the hypnosis, you didn’t feel any discomfort, did you?”

“It does. I worry if it varies from person to person.”

“If you are really worried, I can give her a test and inspection.”

Boris thanked, “That would be great.”

However, the test results came out, confirming Professor Charlie’s words.

“Mr. Lewis, as you can see, all the indicators and data of Miss Scott are normal. Now she does not have any psychological or mental illnesses. Therefore, her memory has deteriorated, and she is in a trance. I think it could be something else.”

This result is expected.

Boris is not stupid, every time Ziana is abnormal, it has something to do with Edison.

Asking Nell to invite Professor Charlie to come over only further verified his guess.

Suppressing his anger, he personally sent Professor Charlie away, and returned to the room to coax Ziana as if nothing had happened.

She did the test all afternoon and was exhausted. She was lying on the bed with her eyes closed.

Hearing the sound of him turning back, she opened his eyes, “The professor is gone?” novelbin

‘Yes.” Boris came over and kissed her on the forehead, “Go to sleep when you’re tired.”

Ziana was a little frustrated, “He didn’t know what was going on with me. He thought he could find the reason, but now he seems to have entered a dead end. Boris, tell me… if I continue to develop like this, will you don’t even remember me one day?”

“No.” Boris said firmly, “I will find a way, don’t you believe in your husband?”

Ziana blinked, met his confident expression, and smiled, “I believe my husband is the best in the world, he is tall and handsome, he speaks nicely, and he is good at making money, he is really amazing!”

“You lost one.” Boris raised his eyebrows, “I am also very good on the bed.”

Ziana’s face turned red instantly, and she glared at him angrily, “Boris! Be careful what you say!”

“I’m telling the truth. How do you say?” He said with a bit of anger.

Ziana kicked him with her little feet, closed her eyes with a stern face, “I’m sleepy, I’m going to sleep!”

“Do you need your husband to provide sleeping service?” Boris was still teasing her.

Ziana refused sternly, “No!”

Boris smiled lowly and helped her cover the quilt. Suddenly, the phone rang.

He glanced at the incoming call, and said to her in a gentle voice, “Sweetheart, sleep well, and I’ll answer the call.”

The call was from Steven Howard.

With a loud voice, he complained all over his face, “Clare, when will you come back? Is there anyone else in charge of the company’s affairs? Since you went to the Wesbruck and Biber went to Galia, you know that I have been here for more than a month. How did it go?”

“I can’t do it! I’m going to quit! The company’s affairs are like a big mountain, and I can’t breathe. If you don’t come back to take over, you can only come to collect my body! I can’t finish reading the documents every day. Seriously, I’m dying of exhaustion!”

“Don’t die yet.” Boris ignored his dry howling, and only asked what he wanted to know, “Help me contact Master Cody, and say that Ziana is possessed by evil spirits.”

Chapter 476 Boris Pointed His Gun at Edison 

Steven’s hands trembled, and his phone was almost thrown away. “What, what? Ziana is Are you kidding me? What on earth happened? Why is she possessed? Nothing had happened to

Ziana before you went to Wesbruck.”

“There’s no time to explain it. Can you contact Master Cody tonight?” Boris asked angrily.

Steven knew it was a big deal, so he quickly became serious.

He asked seriously, “Who is this Master Cody?”

“Ziana once mentioned a bunch of masters on Instagram before. He is one of them. You contact him as quickly as possible and bring him to my villa in Serenity Cove. I will take Ziana back to Japera City soon.”

Steven assured, “No problem!”

After the two hung up the phone, they began to work on their own business.

Boris originally wanted to wait for the Western Royalty to formally apologize to him before returning to Japera City.

But now, Ziana was the most important. He should focus on saving her.

Compared with Ziana’s safety, his ego was nothing.

Although he still had a bone to pick with Edison, he didn’t think he had to do it now. He could still do it in the future.

Boris returned to his room and woke Ziana up.

Half an hour later, Boris and Ziana were on the plane back to Japera City.

As soon as they landed, Boris saw Steven leading an old man who looked sacred to meet him quickly.

“What happened to Ziana?” Steven asked worriedly when seeing Boris hugging Ziana in his arms.

Boris nodded at Redd. “She is wilting. Every time I wake her up, she will fall asleep again. So, I just let her sleep.”

Knowing that Ziana was fine, Steven didn’t feel relieved. “You told me that she was possessed on the phone. What happened?”

“Let’s talk as we walk along.”

On the way, Boris told Redd about Ziana’s differences in Wesbruck.

“It indeed sounds like she’s possessed.” Redd stroked his beard. “We’ll talk about it after I finish examining her.”

The group returned to the villas in Serenity Cove.

Boris asked, “Do I need to wake her up for the examination?”

Redd shook his head. “No. Let her sleep.”

After he finished speaking, he walked to the side of the bed, stretched out his hand, and put his fingers on her pulse.

Boris and Steven watched all this quietly, not daring to ask questions.

Redd took her pulse without showing any expressions. Then, he leaned over, opened her eyes, and looked at it for a long time.

After about five minutes, he straightened up.

Boris asked slowly and respectfully, “Mr. Cody, how is she?”

Hearing his address, Redd took a few looks at him. When meeting his worried eyes, Redd talked about Ziana’s condition. “You almost guessed right. But she isn’t possessed. She is cursed.”

“Tame Head?” Boris was surprised and couldn’t help shouting.

“Fuck! What a vicious person.” Steven was furious. “Tame Head is a terrifying curse that is prevalent in Thaind! Usually, it is used to harm people. I heard that the person who is cursed with Tame Head will become dull and behave abnormally…..

The more he spoke, the lower his voice became. “This is the symptom Ziana has!”

Seeing Boris’ expression, Redd waved to him and let him come over.

Then, Redd opened Ziana’s eyes and asked Boris to observe. “Can you see it?”

“What is it?” Boris saw the difference at once. “Why is there a black line in the middle of the white of her upper eye?”

Redd withdrew his hand and said slowly, “This means that someone has put a curse on her.”

Boris asked, “Then what should we do? Since you know the curse, there must be a way to break it. You are Ziana’s teacher, and you are the best expert in metaphysics. Please help her.”

“Ziana is my precious student. Of course, I will help her when she is cursed.” Redd paused after saying this. “But to break this kind of curse, we must find the person who cursed Ziana.”

Boris didn’t know who cursed Ziana or how the other party cursed her.

After Boris and Ziana arrived in Wesbruck, they spent time with each other every day.

Boris couldn’t remember when the person with malicious intentions took the chance to do it.

“We will find the person, and…” His voice was very cold. “And the person will be well-hidden, so we won’t find the person easily. Can’t you help her break it now? I’m worried that the longer it drags on, the greater the harm this kind of curse will do to her body.”

“If it’s a last resort, I can help her break it,” Redd sighed and said. “The other party cast a blood

curse. Using blood as a curse, the master must be powerful. It means only the master can break it. If I rashly forcibly break it, it will often become fatal and incurable.”

“So, the best way is to find the master who put a curse. Then, nothing will go wrong.”

Boris cursed in a low voice and slammed his fist hard on the wall.

“Boris!” Steven was also furious. “What should we do now?”

Boris suddenly looked down at him. At that moment, his eyes seemed to be a sharp blade, which was terrifying.

Steven felt a gust of cold wind blowing from his back. “Boris…”

“Go to Wesbruck again!”

He said it word by word and with a calm and harsh tone.

When they went to Wesbruck again, it was dawn.

Ziana was sweating and talking nonsense all night, but when she woke up, she didn’t know about it.

Seeing herself in an unfamiliar environment, she asked, feeling puzzled, “Where am I?”

Boris helped her up and helped neat her hair gently. “On the plane.”

“Why am I on a plane?”

“Last night, you said you would do something with me on the plane…” Boris said with a smile.

Ziana’s condition was getting worse and worse. Boris thought if he told her the truth before they found that person, it would only make Ziana worried.

So Boris would rather not tell her.

Ziana blushed and stared at him shyly. “Stop talking nonsense.”

“That is true,” he said lazily. “You flirted with me, but you finally didn’t do it with me. I had to take a cold shower all night.”

Ziana pinched his arm. “Let’s go back to the hotel.”

“Go back to the hotel to make it up for me?” Boris asked with a smile.

Unlike him, Ziana was not frivolous, so she couldn’t say some explicit and nasty words. However, she was always well-behaved but bold.

When they arrived at the hotel, they went to their room. As soon as the door was closed, she took the initiative to hug him, which was self-evident.

“You charming girl, are you going to mess with me early in the morning?”

He pursed his lips and smiled frivolously. He said something serious, but his hands already clasped her legs. He lifted her and threw her onto the bed.

Boris had concerns, but he did his best to make her happy during the whole process.

After confirming that she had fallen into a deep sleep, he redressed and walked out of the room.

“Mr. Lewis, everyone is here,” Nell said with a serious face. “We set out now?”.

Boris stretched out his hand towards Nell.

Nell immediately handed over a black gun.

Boris tilted his head slightly. After checking the bullets, he stuffed the gun into his pocket and walked forward first.

Downstairs of the hotel, more than a dozen cars were ready. Tall and strong bodyguards were standing next to each car.

After Boris got into a car, they got into the cars in unison. The cars headed towards the hospital.

The scene was so exaggerated and eye-catching!

Half an hour later.

As soon as the elevator door opened, more than a dozen bodyguards rushed out.

Seeing this, the bodyguards guarding the floor where Edison’s ward was immediately swarmed. novelbin

But before they could do anything, they were beaten up by the other group of bodyguards!

Boris walked through the crowd with a blank expression. Exuding a terrifying aura, he walked to the ward and kicked open the door.

Edison, who was standing at the table to pour water, frowned and asked in confusion, “Mr. Lewis?”

Boris strode over, raised his leg abruptly, and kicked him hard.

Bang!”

Edison fell heavily onto the ground, and the water splashed all over the floor.

Furious, he scolded angrily, “Boris, are you insane?”

Boris turned a deaf ear. After taking out the gun from his pocket and loading it neatly, he pointed at

Edison’s head!

Chapter 477 Save Our Son 

The atmosphere in the ward was instantly tense, and everyone’s breathing was stagnant!

Edison laughed calmly, “I bet you dare not shoot.”

“You can try it.” Boris snorted. His voice didn’t have any temperature.

Even if he guessed that he didn’t dare, Edison was still frightened by his attitude.

He put away his smile, and calmly reminded him, “Boris, don’t forget that this is the territory of Wesbruck, and I am the prince of Wesbruck. If you shoot, can you leave Wesbruck?”

“For her, I will do anything.” Boris warned, “Hand over the master who put the curse!”

Edison was horrified. He never expected that he would find out so quickly.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about?” He stabilized his mind and directly denied it.

In the next second, the cold muzzle of the gun hit his forehead.

Boris’ eyebrows were cold, “I don’t have that much patience. I’ll give you three seconds, otherwise…”

“Otherwise what?” Edison snatched his words and said with a sneer, “Are you going to shoot me? You can do it if you want, but Ziana will know about it sooner or later. When the time comes, do you think she will forgive you?”

“Would she forgive you?” Boris asked back, “You keep saying you love her, but in the end, you use the curse on her for your own benefit! Edison, as long as you love her and care for her, you won’t do such a despicable thing!”

Edison’s face turned blue and white, and his chest heaved violently.

He gritted his teeth and growled, “I have never done what you said! I don’t know what the master is!

You have found the wrong person! If you want to shoot, just shoot. Don’t wrong me here!”

Boris had expected a long time ago that he would not hand him over so easily.

As if venting his anger, he kicked over again, hitting his previous wound, causing his face to turn pale from the pain.

Edison fell to the ground, moaning in pain.

Boris didn’t even look at him, “Take him away!”

What are you going to do!” Edison hurriedly said, “Boris, where are you taking me!”

Several bodyguards knocked him out at once, and then carried him out from left to right.

They came and went in a hurry.

After more than a dozen black luxury cars drove away again, a sneaky figure emerged.

Looking in the direction of the convoy, his face turned red with anxiety, and after a while, he turned around and ran towards the Wesbruck Palace.

Half an hour later.

When he saw Princess Lia, he said in a hurry, “Princess, it’s bad! Prince Edison was taken away by Boris!”

“What?” Princess Lia cried out in shock, changed her usual elegance and calmness, and hurriedly asked, “When did this happen? Isn’t Boris a fool? Why did he take Edison away? Where did he take Edison?”

There were several questions in succession, which gave Jackson a headache.

He picked up what he knew and answered, “Boris was pretending to be stupid, and Prince Edison just found out not long ago.”

“Why was he pretending to be stupid?” Princess Lia was curious.

Jackson shook his head, “I don’t know, anyway, it’s a long story. Now he has taken away Prince Edison! The battle was very big. I observed secretly, Boris’ expression was ugly. He seemed very angry, but I don’t know why!”

He went to buy breakfast for Edison, and when he bought it, he ran into the scene of Edison being taken away.

“Princess Lia, what should we do now? Will Boris hurt Prince Edison?”

Princess Lia’s mind was spinning rapidly. Suddenly, she thought of something and told Jackson, “You ask someone to investigate where they took Edison. Leave me alone.”

Seeing that her face turned pale, Jackson knew that she was quite frightened, so he nodded and left.

Seeing him leaving, Princess Lia hurriedly grabbed her cell phone and called Pablo Davidson.

As soon as the call was connected, she burst into tears, “Pablo, something happened! Something happened to our son!”

Pablo hung around for half a life, and had seen many strong storms and waves.

He was calmer than Princess Lia. Even in the face of her crying, he maintained his rationality and asked earnestly, “Speak slowly, what’s wrong with Edison? Isn’t he staying in the hospital?”

Princess Lia was sobbing, “Boris led people to the hospital and forcibly took Edison away!”

She trembled in disbelief, saying what she thought of.

“What is he going to do? Did he know what Edison did…”

“I want our son. You must save him! Boris has always been at odds with Edison! If Edison falls into his hands, he will definitely suffer!”

“I don’t care! This is the only son we have! You said you would protect us!”

Pablo listened to her crying and moaning, feeling very annoyed, and scolded in a low voice, “Dial it back a little. Edison is my son. Can I let him have an accident? I have worked so hard to plan for him for so many years. If he has an accident, all my hard work will be wasted!”

After Princess Lia was yelled at, her sobs were a little softer, but she still whimpered, “Then you should think of a way. How can we save our Edison from Boris!”

“Shut up! I’m thinking!” Pablo cursed viciously.

Although he was a gangster, he just wanted to laugh when he thought that his son would be the king of the Wesbruck in the future.

No one could destroy his dream!

Seeing that Edison was about to sit on the throne, he would never allow any accidents to happen!

“To save our son, I need you to do one thing.” Pablo thought for a while, and then calmly spoke out.

As soon as Princess Lia heard that there was a solution, she couldn’t wait to ask, “Don’t say one thing, even if there are a hundred things, as long as you can save our son, I am willing to do anything!”

“You go to see a person.”

After listening to Pablo’s proposal, Princess Lia felt enlightened, and couldn’t help praising him again and again.

“I’m going right now!”

After hanging up the phone, she hastily put on her makeup and drove to the hotel where Ziana was staying

“Knock knock.”

After hearing a knock on the door, Ziana, who had just woken up, rubbed her sore head and asked feebly, “Who?”

The bodyguard replied respectfully, “Miss Scott, Princess Lia of the Western Royalty requests to meet you.”

Ziana paused as she massaged her temples, and then asked hesitantly, “Princess Lia?”

“Yes.” The bodyguard lowered his eyes, “If you don’t want to see her, I can ask her to leave.”

Ziana pondered for a moment, “Please let her go.”

Princess Lia was Edison’s mother. If Boris knew that she had seen her, he would be angry.

But as soon as she finished speaking, Princess Lia’s cry sounded outside the door, “Miss Scott, please! Please save Edison! I really have no other choice, so I come to you. Please help me! If you don’t see me, I’ll kneel here and never leave!”

After finishing speaking, only a plop sounded.

The bodyguards were annoyed by her rogue behavior, and chased her away rudely.

Princess Lia completely abandoned her face, crying and shouting like a street shrew, “Miss Scott!

Please tell me! Please understand the feelings of a mother!”

The leading bodyguard said impatiently, “Drag her out!”

At this moment, the door suddenly opened from the inside.

Everyone followed the sound.

Ziana leaned against the door with a pale face.

She clenched her hand into a fist and put it on her heart, enduring the faint stinging pain, and asked anxiously and suspiciously, “Princess Lia, you are crying and making noise here. What exactly are you going to do?”


Chapter 478 Ziana Queried Him 

When Princess Lia saw Ziana, she burst into tears, “Miss Scott! I can only come to you! Please give me back my Edison! Give him back to me!”

As she spoke, she knelt down and went to catch Ziana.

Ziana frowned and backed away, “Speak clearly. What do you mean returning Edison to you? I don’t understand what are you talking about at all?”

“Edison is gone! Didn’t he come to look for you?” Princess Lia was stunned, “He was supposed to be in the hospital, but when Jackson went to deliver the meal, he found that he was gone.”

“I don’t know. I haven’t seen him today.” Ziana disregarded the relationship. When she said this, her head became more hurt, as if thousands of little ants were gnawing on her.

Princess Lia’s expression suddenly turned pale, “What? You haven’t seen him? Really? Miss Scott, don’t lie to me! He has been missing for a long time. Please don’t lie to me!”

Ziana was impatient, and the pain in her body made her irritable.

She sneered and asked back, “Why would I lie to you? It’s none of my business that he disappeared!”

“How can you say that? Miss Scott, how can you be so ruthless?” Princess Lia’s eyes were red, pointing at her and accusing, “The person that Edison cares about most is you. He loves you so much, but you are so cruel to him. He is missing now, and his life is uncertain, but you don’t care at all!”

“Maybe something happened to him on the way to find you. You must be responsible for him! You must find him with me!” Princess Lia said through gritted teeth.

Ziana’s forehead twitched, “Princess Lia, I understand your emotional response to your son’s disappearance, but if you keep messing around like this, I’ll ask someone to kick you out!”novelbin

“It’s in vain that my son likes you so much. I can’t believe you treated him like this! Don’t you care at all that he is missing?!”

“He’s such a big man. He’s free to go wherever he wants. I’m not a policeman. It’s useless for you to come to me. I’ve already told you everything I know.” Ziana’s heart ached even more, as if someone held a knife and ripped it out, and she could hardly stand up because of the pain.

She said to the bodyguard, “I want to rest. Don’t let her disturb me again.”

After finishing speaking, she turned and went back to the house.

The bodyguards understood. They were no longer polite to Princess Lia, and dragged her away from this floor.

Ziana staggered back to the house with her footsteps faltering.

She twitched all over in pain, fell down on the sofa almost uncontrollably, and passed out.

When she woke up again, she was covered in sweat.

Ziana sat up, recalled what Princess Lia said earlier, thought for a moment, and called Boris.

“Toot…”

As soon as the phone rang, the other side connected.

Boris’ cold voice came. She didn’t know where he was, and the surrounding sounded very empty, “What’s the matter, Ziana?”

“Where are you?” Ziana asked, “Why haven’t you come back?”

“Just say you miss me, and I’ll go back.” He avoided the important thing and did not answer her question.

Ziana was not so easily fooled. She snorted softly, “Where are you?”

“Outside.” He glanced back at the group of people behind him, signaled them silently, and then said with the microphone, “Investigate a project.”

Ziana said, “When will you come back?”

“I’m not going back, unless you say you miss me.” He flirted with her in a good mood.

Ziana blushed and was about to speak. Suddenly there was a painful whining sound from the other end, accompanied by a few muffled punches. Although it was very fast, she knew kung fu and her ears were very good, so she heard it.

Her voice turned cold, “Boris, what are you doing?”

“Wait for me. I’ll go back now.” After he finished speaking, he cut off the phone. A pair of eagle-like eyes fell on Edison sharply and coldly, “Do you want to say it? Hand over the master!”

“I won’t tell even if you kill me!” Edison spat, “You won’t kill me! If I die, you won’t get any news at all!”

He was fight.

Ziana was his weakness. If he wanted to keep her safe, he couldn’t kill Edison.

Edison obviously knew this better than him, so he didn’t say anything, but spent time with him.

Take care of him!” Boris finished speaking and left in a hurry.

He took the initiative to hang up the little woman’s phone, fearing that he would offend her again.

Sure enough, when he returned to the hotel, he found that the door was locked from the inside.

He begged for mercy helplessly and flatteringly, “My Miss Scott, open the door quickly. If you have anything to say, just say it well. Even if you are angry, let me in. You can beat or scold me at that. time!”

“Honey, I haven’t seen you all day. Don’t you really miss me? Let me in and give me a hug!”

“Honey, I’ll kowtow and apologize to you when I go in, okay?”

No matter what Boris said, Ziana remained silent.

Boris looked at Nell. Nell coughed in embarrassment, and took out the spare key, “Mr. Lewis, please.”

He inserted the key in, opened the door easily, and walked in swaggeringly.

“Boris! Get out!” Ziana sat on the sofa, folded her arms around her chest, and looked at him angrily.

Since he came in, how could he get out?

Boris was selectively deaf, so he went straight to the sofa, and when he was in front of Ziana, he plopped down at her feet.

He grabbed her hand and greeted himself, “I made you angry. You can hit me, and I will never fight back.”

Ziana gritted her teeth, and pulled her hand back, but Boris refused, and also worked hard.

She whispered, “You hurt me!”

Boris quickly let go of her hand, saw that her slender and fair wrist was red, and apologized quickly.

Ziana threw him away with a cold face, “Boris, tell me the truth. Where did you go today?”

“Outside.”

Ziana sported angrily, and threw the phone to him directly.

On the screen was the headline news, Edison disappeared in the hospital. It had become a big issue, and now everyone was paying attention to it, and the Western Royalty also say that they would spare no effort to find Edison.

Boris glanced at it and raised his eyebrows, “Is he missing?”

“Did you do it?” Ziana was too lazy to beat around the bush, “To be honest.”

Boris took a deep look at her, “What does it matter to me that he disappeared? If I say I did it, do you want me to let him go?”

“You said you were going to deal with him.” Ziana reminded him.

Boris’ eyes turned dangerous, “So, are you going to persuade me to let him go now?”

He clearly knew that what she said and did might not be what she meant, but between him and

Edison, he didn’t want the person she favored was not him.

He couldn’t control his anger, jealousy and heartache.

However, Ziana’s next words made him feel that it was worth doing everything for her.

She said, “I said that I don’t care about the affairs between you, and I’m with you. If you want to deal with him, you must have your reasons, but you must use legitimate means of competition. It doesn’t matter if you destroy his company or plan. You can’t do illegal things.”

Ziana looked at him straight, “I’ll ask you again. Is his disappearance related to you? Did you find someone to kidnap him?

Chapter 479 Ziana Takes Edison Away 

Boris twitched his fingers, “I did it, but don’t worry about it, I’ll take care of it.”

Ziana was angry and impatient, pointing to the headlines on the screen, “He is Wesbruck Prince, you kidnapped him, and now things are getting so big, how will it end? This is not your territory, don’t mess around! Hurry up! Let me go!”

Boris looked at her, and suddenly sneered, “Are you worried about me, or him?”

“Boris!” Ziana called her name, her head suddenly ached sharply, “Are you going to let him go or not?”

“When we get the answer, we will naturally let him go.”

Ziana endured the pain and asked, “What answer?”

Boris pursed his lips, noticed her pale face, and hugged her domineeringly in his arms.

“What’s wrong with you? Is your head hurting again?” He asked with concern.

However, bursts of pain came overwhelmingly.

Ziana wanted to say something but can’t, everything in front of her eyes became blurred, Boris’ voice gradually faded away.

Finally, the darkness completely overwhelmed her.

Boris immediately hugged her fainted, and growled, “Nell, please come here with a doctor!”

The doctor came over quickly, as before, still unable to explain why.

Boris knew that she was like this, probably because she was cursed.

Her situation is getting worse and worse!

He looked at Ziana, who was unconscious, and only hated that not hitting Edison hard enough today.

How could he treat his sweetheart like this?

“Knock knock.”

The door suddenly rang.

Nell came back after sending the doctor off, and whispered with Boris, “Princess Lia came here this afternoon. She said that Edison was missing, and asked Madam to help, and even insulted Madam, saying Madam was ruthless.”

“No wonder.” Boris sneered.

He was not interested in what Princess Lia said, and he could guess it with a little thought.

In contrast, he wanted to know Ziana’s answer even more, “What did Ziana say?”

Nell conveyed the words he got from the bodyguard to Boris.

After Boris listened, he smiled softly.

He caressed Ziana’s face, and secretly swore that no matter what he did, he would keep her safe.

“Did Edison say it?” He asked coldly.

Nell shook his head, “Not yet, the brothers are still fighting with him, and everyone outside is looking for him, but our place is still safe.”

Boris ordered in a deep voice, “Continue to put pressure on him and find a way to pry his mouth open!”

Nell said with difficulty, “Mr. Lewis, I’m afraid it won’t be that easy. He is sure that we dare not kill him, so he insists on carrying it.”

“Then let him suffer more!!!

Nell nodded, “I’ll give orders now!”

Late at night.

Ziana opened her eyes suddenly.

She silently sat up, got out of bed quietly, and when she left the room, she glanced at Boris, who was on the bed.

He is still sleeping.

With a blank face, she turned and left.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the door closed, Boris, who had his eyes closed, sat up.

His brows and eyes are clear, how can he have the slightest bit of drowsiness?

As soon as Ziana left the room, she walked to another room.

She knocked on the door, and the door opened soon. The person who opened the door was full of disbelief, “Ma… madam?”

“Nell, where is Edison being held?” Ziana asked.

Nell kept silence, and he wanted to cry but had no tears.

Why did he want to open this door cheaply!

If you don’t open this door, nothing will happen, right?

In other words, is it too late to close the door now?

“Madam… Please… don’t embarrass me, just ask Mr. Lewis directly!” He faltered and was about to close the door in a hurry, but Ziana blocked the door first, “Take me to see Edison!”

Nell’s mouth twitched, almost crying, “Ma’am…”

He’s just a tough guy!

Why bully him like this?

Ziana glared at him, “You want me to do something to you?”

“Don’t!” Nell repeatedly stopped, “You don’t have to!”

If Mr. Lewis knows that he dares to touch Ziana, Mr. Lewis can kick him like a ball!

“Lead the way!” Ziana urged.

Nell had a sullen face, and persuaded Ziana as he walked forward, “Madam, there is a reason why Mr. Lewis kidnapped Edison, so please don’t meddle in this matter. You should know that no matter what Mr. Lewis does, he is for you be better! Please trust Mr. Lewis! It’s just to make Edison suffer a little bit, but he won’t die…”

Listening to his words, Ziana felt pain in her forehead, and kept repeating those words in her mind.

Her head was drowsy, and she scolded in a low voice, “Shut up! Quietly lead the way!”

Nell resigned himself to his fate with a long sigh. He opened the car door and said to her, “Madam, please get in the car.”

The car started and sped away.

A slender and tall figure stepped out of the darkness.

The bodyguard drove the car over, Boris sat in, his face was so gloomy and said, “Follow the car.”

The basement of the vast hotel.

Taking the elevator down to the third basement floor, Nell was still sincerely persuading, “Madam, Edison is definitely not what you see. He is really not simple. Mr. Lewis tied him here for Lewis will take care of everything for you, as long as you listen to him at ease.”

Mr. Ziana rubbed her head, “Is it there yet?”

Nell was immediately dejected. He tried to persuade her all the way, but she didn’t listen to a word!

He looked at the door in front of him sadly, stepped forward and pushed it open, “Here we are.”

More than a dozen bodyguards looked together, seeing that it was Nell and he was leading Ziana, they all didn’t know what happened.

Nell frowned, winking at everyone.

In the huge basement, there was no sound.

Ziana walked forward about ten steps, and suddenly saw Edison who was tied on the chair.

He closed his eyes, his face was pale, and his face was covered with bruises. After hearing the movement, he said without opening his eyes, “I don’t know what you are asking. I have never done it. If you want to hit me, hit me!”

Ziana ran over in a hurry and called out in a low voice, “Edison? Are you okay?”

Edison froze, opened his eyes slowly, and after seeing the person coming, he said slightly, “Ziana?”

Ziana’s eyes showed pity.

She looked him up and down, tears streaming down her face involuntarily.

When Edison saw her crying for him, he was secretly happy, but he said, “Ziana, why are you crying?”

Ziana wiped away her tears, then turned to look at Nell, “Let him go! I want to take him away!”

Nell knew this would be the result, “Madam…don’t…”

“Let him go!” Ziana turned up her sound, “I will bear the consequences alone! If Boris wants to get even with someone, let him come to me!”

Nell hesitated and stood still.

Ziana said coldly, “Do you want me to do it?”

Even if Nell had never seen her kung fu, he had heard it from Boris, she was definitely a master.

As long as she wants, she can fight all the way.

But do they really dare to fight Madam?

“Madam, Mr. Lewis did all this for you. Do you know what Edison did secretly?” Nell couldn’t help feeling angry, and speak for Boris.

“I only know that he imprisoned the prince of Wesbruck!” Ziana warned him, “If you don’t want him to make mistakes again, then release him immediately! Nell, don’t force me to do it!”

Hearing the chill in her words, Nell waved his hands, and immediately a bodyguard untied the rope for Edison.

Ziana supported Edison, “I’ll take you back.”

Edison looked at her profile and smiled weakly, “Ziana, thank you for coming to save me. I don’t know why he suddenly led people into the hospital and arrested me, but I think I there must be some misunderstanding between us.”

“En.” Ziana bowed her head, “Let’s leave here first.”

“Why did you come to save me?” Edison gasped and asked as he walked, “I thought I was dreaming.

Ziana, you haven’t come to the hospital to see me for several days, I thought you angry with me.”

“No. I haven’t been in good health recently.” She answered truthfully.

Edison really became concerned, “What’s the matter? Is it better now?”

“I’ve been having a headache and a pain in my heart, but I don’t know why, but after seeing you, I suddenly feel better.” Ziana replied with a distressed frown.

Edison lowered his eyes and said with a little guilt, “I will misunderstand you if you say that, and greedily hope that you will come and accompany me more.”

Ziana didn’t speak, and reminded him in a low voice, “Pay attention to the road under your feet.”

Her long eyelashes trembled and blinked, hiding the dark and mocking emotion in her eyes.

The two walked in front, and Nell followed behind.

They took the elevator to the parking lot.

As soon as the elevator door opened, Nell’s legs went limp, and he backed away stiffly, “…madam…”

Ziana looked up. novelbin

Facing them, Boris, who was wearing a black shirt, stared at them with a half-smile.


Chapter 480 Boris Makes an Unfounded Attack Upon Me 

Edison’s body trembled, as if he was afraid of being abused.

He whispered to Ziana, “He won’t let me go, or else, leave me alone.”

As he spoke, he pulled his hand out.

Ziana stopped him, shook his head at him, “I will definitely take you away today.”

“Ziana…you are so kind to me, I will misunderstand.” Edison lowered his eyes and said dejectedly.

At this moment, Boris snorted, “Baby, come to me.”

Ziana looked at him with her head held high, and when she spoke she was flamboyant and calm, “Boris, let us go.”

“I can take you away, but he must stay here.” Boris calmly said with a calm expression.

Ziana said coldly, “Are you sure you won’t let him go?”

“Are you sure you want to take him away?” Boris confronted her.

Ziana replied decisively, “Sure! If you don’t get out of the way, then I’ll fight with you and leave there!”

Boris raised his eyes suddenly, his face was gloomy, his deep and dark eyes seemed to be shrouded in frost.

“How dare you!” He said in a cold voice, like a life-threatening Shura who came from the depths of hell, “He must stay here, and no one is allowed to take him away without my permission! Even you, Ziana, are no exception!”

“Then let’s fight!” She put on a posture, holding Edison behind her, “As long as I live, I will definitely take him away today!”

Boris was completely angry, his black eyes flashed with raging anger, but more of it was heartache.

“Why?” He looked at her and asked, “Why are you against me for him! I said this, don’t meddle, why are you disobedient? Do you really understand the man you want to take away? Do you know why I tied him here?”

Edison sneered, “I also really want to know why Mr. Lewis tied me up and beat me up like this!”

“Shut up!” Boris scolded, “The two of us are talking, do you have the right to interrupt?”

‘All I know is that he is the prince of the Western Royalty. No matter what he did, you imprison him.”

“I have my reasons for imprisoning him! Ziana, listen to me, don’t worry about this matter anymore, come back to me now, and I will take you back!”

As he spoke, he stepped up to her, just about to hold her hand, but she backed away to avoid his touch.

Boris was slightly startled, and looked at her with his lips pursed, his eyes were so thick that he couldn’t get dizzy.

“I said, I have to take him away today!” Ziana said stubbornly, “Get out of the way!”

“I won’t!” Boris simply confessed, “If he doesn’t hand over the master, I won’t let him leave here even if he dies! Do you know why you always have headaches recently, and why you always forget things?”

He pointed at Edison, “It’s all his fault! In order to get you, he actually put a curse on you!”

“Don’t slander me!” Edison hurriedly said, “Ziana, I don’t know what his meaning!”

Nobody knew if it was because of excitement or fear, his already pale face was even paler now.

He watched Ziana’s face without blinking, and at the same time continued to defend himself, “I never did it! I don’t know why Mr. Lewis slandered me! Ziana, you should understand me, how could I do that kind of thing?”

A cool and gentle voice suddenly sounded.

“Boris, is what you just said true?”

The voice was very familiar, and the people present couldn’t help but look at the person coming.

Yudel was wearing a silver-gray suit, obviously dressed in a refined manner, but at this moment, his smiling eyes were full of coldness, as if even the air around him was stagnant.

Ziana nodded towards him, “Yudel.”

Yudel just looked at Boris, and asked nonchalantly, “You said that Ziana was put a curse?”

With a sullen face, Boris replied the same, “Yes.”

“Mr. Scott, I don’t do this.” Edison said quickly, turned to Boris, and asked with a bit of sarcasm in his tone, “Since Mr. Lewis keeps saying that I empoisoned Ziana, how about the evidence? Please show me the evidence. Come out with evidence instead of talking nonsense and slandering me!”

Boris was silent.

This made Edison feel more confident.

He was sure that only the four of them knew about the matter.

Nia had returned Thaind and was safe now, and it was impossible for Boris to find her.

His mother and Mr. Collins will never betray him!

Boris had no evidence certainly!

“Mr. Lewis, please show evidence, otherwise, please apologize to me immediately!” Edison said loudly.

Yudel frowned thoughtfully, “Mr. Lewis, where’s the evidence?”

Boris shook his head. Although he had no evidence, “Ziana’s recent strange behavior is evidence!”

“What’s so strange about Ziana’s recent behavior?” Edison asked puzzled, “I was hurt, and Ziana came to care about me and visit me as a friend. Is it strange? Mr. Lewis, you slander me because of

envy, and say that I put a curse on her, this is too impolite!”

“Ziana!” He looked at Ziana again, “Believe me, I won’t do that to you!”

“Ziana, you should trust me.” Boris pursed his lips, “I will never harm you.’

Ziana looked at Boris, with a flash of pain in his eyes.

In the next second, her face changed instantly, and she yelled coldly and mercilessly, “Boris, that’s enough! Two days ago you were angry because I went to visit Edison. I have explained to you, after so long you are still brooding! How long are you going to make trouble?”

Boris never expected that she would say such words.

He froze in place for a moment, not knowing what to say.

“Now you still make up such a thing as Edison put a curse on me! Okay! If you want me to believe you, what about your evidence? If you show the evidence, I will believe you!”

Boris said in a low voice, “Ziana…”

“Can’t get it out, right?” She said mockingly, “Then get out of the way! I’m going to take him away today!”

After she finished speaking, she grabbed Edison’s sleeve and strode towards the car. novelbin

The bodyguards didn’t get Boris’ order, so they didn’t dare to act rashly.

For a while, everyone just watched, and the two of them left.

The roaring sports car roared and drove away.

Boris stood there motionless, without moving for a long time.

Yudel stepped forward and whispered to him, “I believe you, there is something wrong with Ziana.”,

Boris nodded with a pale face.

Yudel rubbed his brows, feeling helpless, “I’ve only been away for three days to take part in the Scott Group’s monthly meeting. How did you make it like this? What happened these few days?”

Boris ordered Nell to drive, and then said weakly to Yudel, “Talk on the road.”

The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee By Vera Whitehead Chapter 451-470

Chapter 451 Giving Him Some Response

After Boris departed from the banquet, Duke Bourne’s tense face transformed into a wide grin.

He instructed Edison to welcome the guests before joining his friends in the official circle to exchange greetings.

Edison watched him leave and let out a barely audible sneer.

He was eagerly anticipating the spectacle that would unfold at today’s banquet.

As the engagement banquet approached, Ziana and Yudel arrived fashionably late.

As soon as Edison saw Ziana, his indifference vanished, and he warmly greeted her with a smile, “Ziana.”

Ziana nodded politely in response, but it was Yudel who spoke up, “Prince Edison, congratulations.”

Edison’s smile faltered slightly with disappointment, “Thank you. This way please.”

Yudel glanced around the room before replying with a calm smile, “Thank you.”

After entering the banquet hall, he leaned in to whisper to Ziana, “Did Edison come to see you last night?”

Ziana didn’t want to discuss the matter and shot her brother a warning look, “Stop prying.”

“I’m just concerned about you.” Yudel corrected her with a smile.

In front of her family, Ziana didn’t bother to hold back. “Don’t bring him up.”

Yudel raised an eyebrow, recalling Edison’s actions from the previous night. It was indeed terrible.

He changed the subject smoothly. “Alright then, let’s talk about someone else. Where is Boris?”

“How should I know?” Ziana replied nonchalantly, though she seemed uncertain.

Yudel adjusted his glasses, “You don’t know? I saw him leaving your room this morning.”

Ziana felt a twinge of embarrassment. “You must have been mistaken.”

“But he greeted me.”

Ziana was at a loss for words and pretended to be confused. “Really? Why did he leave my room then?”

“Don’t play dumb in front of your brother,” Yudel said, tapping her forehead. “You guys have been through a lot. We all saw his feelings for you five years ago. In the past three years of marriage, he’s been treating you terribly, but it’s understandable. If you’re angry with him, go ahead and torment him. But once it’s over, move on and let bygones be bygones.

“People can’t always dwell on the past. They need to look forward and keep moving.

“And if you have slept with him.” Yudel coughed lightly, “Give him some response. Otherwise, he’ll come knocking on my door for a title. He really annoyed me in the morning.”

Ziana turned livid and hurriedly explained, “Don’t listen to his nonsense. I didn’t sleep with him. He clearly slept on the sofa!”

“Is that so?” Yudel pushed his glasses up his nose. “I don’t know where he slept. After all, I wasn’t hiding under the bed.”

“Yudel!” Ziana gritted her teeth. “Where is Boris? I want to sew his mouth shut and see how he continues making up lies!”

She looked around frantically.

But there was no sign of Boris anywhere.

Where was he?

Had he hidden somewhere, afraid that she would confront him?

What a coward!

Ziana snorted. He might have been able to hide from her today, but not forever. She didn’t believe he could hold back from finding her.

The banquet hall was filling up with more and more guests drinking and chatting with each other.

As the engagement ceremony drew near, Edison made his way onto the stage from the door.

The host approached with a worried expression. “Prince Edison, why hasn’t Ms. Bourne arrived. yet?”

“What? She’s not here yet?” Edison’s brow furrowed in surprise, “Perhaps she’s been delayed. I’ll contact her.”

He dialed her number, but his expression quickly changed.

The host grew uneasy, “Can’t reach her?”

Edison shook his head, his face etched with worry and frustration.

“What’s going on?” Duke Bourne couldn’t find Winifred, and seeing Edison’s expression from the audience made him feel uneasy. He approached the stage and asked, “Where is Winifred? The auspicious time for the engagement is passing. Why is she late today? This is ridiculous!”

“I can’t reach her on the phone. I’ll go find her,” Edison reassured him.

Duke Bourne urged him, “Hurry up.”

Edison winked at the host before rushing out. The host’s voice then rang out. “Ladies and gentlemen, please wait a moment. We’ve encountered a slight issue. The engagement banquet will be delayed for a while. Next…”

At first, no one paid much attention, but after half an hour had passed, Edison returned panting and visibly anxious.

He went straight to Duke Bourne and asked, “Dad, has Winifred arrived yet?”

Duke Bourne’s voice rose in alarm, “No! You haven’t found her?”

Edison shook his head as he caught his breath. “No, I’ve searched everywhere she might have and I still can’t reach her on the phone. Dad, do you think… she might be in danger?” gone,

Duke Bourne’s face turned cold as he considered the possibility, “Send someone to search for her!”

The engagement banquet was no longer important; finding his daughter was now their top priority.

Duke Bourne issued orders to his subordinates, and soon dozens of bodyguards rushed in.

The guests were taken aback and frightened by the sudden commotion.

Duke Bourne commanded with a stern expression, “Find Ms. Bourne! Even if you have to dig three. feet into the ground, you must find her!”

“Yes, sir!”

The bodyguards dispersed. Duke Bourne and Edison quickly left as well.

After they were gone, the remaining guests began to whisper amongst themselves.

“What’s going on? Is the engagement banquet still happening?”

“How could it continue? Didn’t you hear? The Duke’s daughter is missing!”

“Today is the day of her engagement. Everyone knows how deeply Ms. Bourne loves Prince Edison. Unless something unexpected happened, she would have definitely shown up!”

“Who would dare to mess with Duke Bourne? Touching Ms. Bourne is like asking for death!”

Yudel watched as the group departed with a slight smile playing in his eyes. “Winifred is missing?”

Ziana pursed her lips, but her thoughts ran deeper than his.

She hadn’t been able to find Boris, and now he was missing too.

Could it be a coincidence?

Had Boris taken Winifred away?

It was possible.

After all, he had said that pushing Winifred into the water was just a small lesson.

Where there were small lessons, there were big lessons.

At that, Ziana rose to her feet and headed outside.

“Where are you going?” Yudel asked.

“I’m going to have a look,” she replied.

The banquet hall had turned chaotic. Some guests chose to stay put and make connections with those who could benefit them, while others ran out to help search for the missing lady.

Ziana and Yudel left the hall and joined the crowd in searching.

They looked everywhere but without success.

Ziana called Boris several times, but his phone was turned off.

This made her more anxious.

Suddenly, Yudel pushed her, and she looked up in the direction he pointed.

Not far away, Edison and Duke Bourne were leading a group of people, hurrying towards a room.

Ziana had a bad feeling and whispered, “Let’s follow them!”

Chapter 452 She Wants to Bite Me

“Help! Help! Help!”

Before Ziana walked to the room, she heard heart-piercing shouts from inside.

She frowned.

It sounded like Boris.

Boris was here!

She followed the crowd and sped up.

The closer she was, the clearer the voice was.

“Is there anyone? Help. I’m so scared!”

“Ah! Get lost! Fuck off! Don’t come here!”

“Madwoman! Get away!”

Duke Bourne looked livid and hostile. “Open the door.”

“Your Lordship, the door is locked!”

“Then strike it open!”

Two minutes later, the door slammed open.

Duke Bourne, Edison, and the other people rushed in together, but they were dumbfounded when they entered the room.

Boris, who was said to have become a fool, had jumped onto the cabinet.

His clothes were messy. There were lipstick marks on his face, and his eyes were red from crying-

When he saw they came, he clutched at straws and jumped down from the cabinet, yelling, “Help! There is a madwoman inside! As soon as she saw me, she jumped up and dragged my clothes to bite me!”

“Her mouth is so big, look! She bit me! It’s scary!”

“She also makes strange noises, as a big monster does. Fortunately, you are here!”

“Arrest her quickly, or she will bite you too!”

Duke Bourne looked even more livid as he heard Boris’ nonsense.

He interrupted him sharply. “Where is that woman?”

Boris shrank and pointed to the corner of the wall with his finger.

Only then did everyone see that a woman was lying there motionless.

“Winifred! It’s Winifred! She was wearing this suit in the morning!” Edison exclaimed, rushed over, and picked up Winifred, who was facing down, “Winifred! Wake up!”

Winifred’s eyes closed and her breathing was very short.

Edison turned away and stared at Boris, his eyes red with anger. “What did you do to her?”

“She… she bit me! She even pulled my clothes!” Boris shrugged, “So I hit her!”

Duke Bourne shouted angrily, “You swollen her face!” novelbin

Boris muttered, “But she bit me first!”

“Mr. Lewis!”

“Ah!” Boris howled.

Duke Bourne was stunned and even more anxious when Boris howled.

He almost forgot it.

Boris was a fool now.

They couldn’t reason with him.

Duke Bourne was extremely irritable and angry, but he had to suppress his anger forcefully.

He didn’t want to talk to Boris, the fool. He told Edison with concern, “Take her out of here first!”

Edison nodded. “I will definitely investigate it!”

When Boris bent down to pick up Winifred, Winifred suddenly woke up.

She smelled Boris’ hormones, which enticed her like drugs and made her tremble, thirsty and crazy.

“It’s hot.”

She closed her eyes, but her hands roamed on Edison.

Edison whispered, “Winifred! Don’t move!”

Winifred didn’t listen and took off her own clothes with one hand, and Edison’s clothes with the other.

That lustful look shouldn’t have appeared on a duke’s daughter.

“Winifred!” Duke Bourne was furious and he shouted angrily, but to no avail, Winifred didn’t stop. He turned to the people behind him and ordered. “Close your eyes!”

“Edison, take Winifred with you, let’s go!” After finishing speaking, he looked at the people who followed, “No one is allowed to speak out what happened today, otherwise, the consequences will be at your own risk!”

Duke Bourne and Edison left quickly with Winifred.

Despite his warnings not to spread it, gossip circulated in high society.

Winifred was going to be engaged to Edison, who was the prince of the Western Royalty. Although having a humble background, he had been in the limelight in recent years and was highly valued. However, Winifred disappeared on the day of the engagement and was alone in the same room with, Boris. Undoubtedly it was a humiliation for Western Royalty.

Hardly had Edison sent Winifred back when he was summoned by his father.

Chapter 453 Engagement Is Void

He rushed all the way to the meeting hall without stopping and found that his father and mother were there.

“Father, mother.” Edison bowed and saluted them.

Horton Andrew was over sixty years old, and he looked majestic because of his long-term on the throne.

He looked angry. His tanned face was livid, indicative of his discontent.

Edison clenched his hands nervously.

Suddenly, Horton slammed the table.

He yelled angrily, “Edison! What on earth happened at the engagement banquet?”

When Edison was about to speak, the guard came to report that Duke Bourne had arrived.

As soon as Duke Bourne came in, he howled at the top of his throat, “Your majesty! You must explain what happened on your royal family’s territory. Now my daughter and I have become the laughingstock of the high society in Wesbruck! What will others think of Winifred? How can Winifred socialize in the future? And my reputation is ruined, too!”

“You are not the only one who is ashamed. Stop shouting.” Horton glared at him angrily, “You didn’t watch over your daughter and allowed it to happen. How shameless of you to scold me! Why don’t you explain first why your daughter was in the same room with another strange man!”

Duke Bourne was stunned, “Your majesty, what do you mean?”

“I’m telling the truth. You should give me an explanation first before I investigate it for you. The Western Royalty becomes a laughingstock because of your daughter’s dissolute affair. How will you compensate us?” Horton said coldly with a livid face.

He was the king of Wesbruck and had supreme power.

But now the most powerful king would be mentioned in one of the scandalous stories and jeered by his people

What a shame!

He had never experienced such a disgrace before. So he couldn’t contain himself anymore and shouted angrily.

Puke Bourne was scared by Horton’s attitude. But he wouldn’t budge because he loved his daughter deeply and wouldn’t allow his daughter to take all the blame.

He took a deep breath and said without fear of power, “My daughter was drugged in the Western

Royalty’s territory! She doesn’t want to be drugged. Everyone knows how much she loves Prince Edison! She wouldn’t fornicate with another man! My daughter is also a victim! Anyway, it must be investigated and I need an explanation!”

Duke Bourne looked firm with fearless courage and determination.

“We will investigate it. But the prince of Western Royalty, no matter how humble his background is, will never marry a woman who has been drugged, seen, and ruined!” Horton said firmly, “The engagement is void!”

“Father!” Edison cried out in astonishment.

“Shut up!” Horton yelled arbitrarily, “I know you don’t want to, but it is settled. You don’t mind if she is a virgin, but I do. It is a shame for you to marry her, and it will be a shame for Western Royalty and me!”

“We rushed in and looked around. Nothing happened.” Edison lowered his eyes and explained in a low voice.

“She was drugged and was in the same room with a strange man! Even though she was still a virgin, her reputation is ruined. I’ll ask your mother to choose some other young ladies for you.” Horton waved his hand, “The engagement is void. Don’t mention it anymore!”

Duke Bourne was furious.

His daughter was very hapless when she encountered such an undeserved catastrophe. She was even more unfortunate when she was despised by others. But Horton was the king. Duke Bourne couldn’t do anything about it. Yet he was proud.

“Okay! The engagement is void!” Duke Bourne raised his chin, trying to make himself look less- embarrassed, “My daughter needs a strong man. Edison, you can’t protect her on your own territory. I’m not willing to marry her to you!”

Edison lowered his head and said in a low voice, “Duke Bourne, I’m sorry.”

“Hmph!” Duke Bourne sneered, “Save it! I just want to know how you’re going to deal with this. matter! When will the investigation start? You don’t care about my daughter’s reputation, but I do! My majesty, please investigate it now!”

Horton’s purpose was to prevent Winifred, whose reputation was ruined, from getting involved with the Western Royalty.

Now that the engagement had been broken off, he felt much more content. “Edison! How is your – investigation going!”

“We’ll find it out soon,” Edison replied.

Horton snorted, “Then just wait for it.”

After he said that, he saw Catherine striding in, and there was a young man behind her.

Horton didn’t know the young man, but Edison did.

That young man was Boris’ assistant, Nell Taylorr.

“Catherine! What are you doing here?” Horton was surprised.

He preferred his eldest daughter Catherine because Catherine earned a good reputation for him and Western Royalty these years.

Horton liked anyone who brought glory to Western Royalty, so when Catherine went straight into the meeting hall without notifying him, he wasn’t angry at all.

“Father, such a big incident happened at the engagement banquet. I come here to discuss the young man, solution with you because my guest is also affected.” Catherine introduced the

“This is Nell, Boris’ assistant at Lewis Company. Father, I believe you already know that Mr. Lewis and Winifred were locked in the same room.”

Horton knew about the cooperation between Catherine and the Lewis Company.

Although Boris had become a fool, he was still rich. He could invest in Wesbruck as long as he had money.

He should be polite to Boris for the sake of his company.

Horton nodded. “I know. That is what we’re talking about now. Don’t worry, I will justify Mr. Lewis.”

“That’s ok.” Nell said with proper etiquette, “Although Mr. Lewis has become a fool now, people shouldn’t bully him. If it is not handled properly, I’m afraid we have to reconsider Lewis Company’s investment in Wesbruck.”

“Mr. Lewis is our distinguished guest. Of course, we will set store by it. I have asked people to investigate it. I believe there will be results soon. Let’s wait patiently.” Horton said, “How’s Mr. Lewis going now?”

“Hmph!” Nell looked angry, “Mr. Lewis was frightened, developed a high fever, and kept talking nonsense. If Mr. Lewis doesn’t recover well, the Lewis Company will definitely let you pay for it!”

Hearing this, Horton’s heart skipped a beat.

He prayed that Boris would be sound and safe.

Who on earth did that?

If he caught the perpetrator, he would make him or her suffer.

“Edison!” Horton vented all his anger on Edison, “When will your people finish the investigation?” novelbin

Jackson walked in hurriedly.

Edison asked seriously, “Have you found out anything?”


Chapter 454 Clean Yourself Up

Jackson brought a video recorded from the surveillance system.

The video clearly showed that Winifred was fainted, and her maid carried her out of the room.

“Where’s the maid?!” Horton’s sharp eyes looked coldly; “Bring her here and question her!”

“She’s just outside.” Jackson clapped his hands after speaking.

Two bodyguards brought the maid in, and fiercely pushed her on the ground.

The maid fell down and moaned.

“It’s you!” Duke Bourne was shocked and asked in disbelief, “How could it be you?!”

This maid was from his family and often served Winifred.

“How could you do such a thing! Why?” Duke Bourne was emotional, and he kicked her; “Tell me! Why did you do this? Why did you ruin my daughter’s reputation!”

The maid raised her head and looked at him fiercely. Suddenly she burst into laughter.

The more she laughed, the angrier Duke Bourne became. He yelled at her heart-piercingly,

“Why?!”

Edison looked at Jackson, Jackson nodded and said, “Her father owes 60 thousand dollars in gambling debts. Some time ago, he wanted to borrow money from Winifred, but Winifred didn’t agree. On the same day, Winifred spent few thousands of dollars on a bag. And her father was taken. away by debt collectors as he had no money to repay the debt, and he was beaten to death.”

“She deserves it! She didn’t lend me money even though she had it. And she said that I was just a servant, what qualities me to borrow her money? I have served her with all my heart for so many years. She has a bad temper, often beat and scold me. I endured all this, and thought she would appreciate me. Instead, she refused to help me!” The maid suddenly said, angrily, “I want to destroy her! I hate her!”

“Hahaha! She is now an abandoned woman! Just like a pair of rotten shoes! I think nobody will admire her in the whole Wesbruck! She deserves it! It has been spread all over, and she is unfaithful! Many people have seen it. Her lustful look!”

“Shut up!” Duke Bourne couldn’t bear it anymore, he kicked her hard. The maid immediately covered her stomach and moaned in pain.

Duke Bourne couldn’t let go of his hatred and kicked her several times. He only stopped until the maid didn’t move.

“Okay.” At that moment, Horton yelled to ask them stop, “That’s how it is. Now that we’ve figured it out, this matter is over, and don’t pursue it any further. Duke and Nell, whether you are satisfied or not, this is the truth.”

On the way back, Nell called Boris and reported the whole situation to him.

After Boris listened, he said calmly, “Got it.”

“Mr. Lewis, the engagement between Edison and Winifred is canceled.” Nell reminded in a solemn tone.

Boris scoffed; “I knew this engagement banquet would not go so smoothly.”

This trip to Wesbruck, every time Edison looked at Ziana, his look was not innocent at all.

He knew that he is not reconciled to it.

After all, it was like a large piece of fat meat from the Scott family that was dangling in front of him. But he couldn’t have it, and anyone would feel tempted to it.

“Mr. Lewis, what should we do next?” Nell asked.

Boris pondered momentarily; “Investigate that maid. Send someone to follow her, and bring her to me if possible.”

“Noted.” After finished talking, Nell coughed softly; “Mr. Lewis, is Mrs. Lewis willing to see you?”

Boris hung up the phone immediately.

After Winifred was taken away by Edison today, the rest also dispersed one after another from the room.

He wanted to talk to Ziana and explain. But when she saw him approaching, she turned around and left.

Due to it was in the Western Royalty, he did not catch up with her.

He rushed to the guest house right after that. Ziana have returned, but she refused to see him.

She locked herself in the room. No matter how much he tried to please her, she didn’t respond to him.

Boris put away the phone, looked at the door, sighed, and continued; “Ziana, open the door. I’ll count of ten. If you don’t open the door, I’ll go in anyway.”

This kind of door, he could just kick it to open.

“Ten.”

“Nine.”

“Eight.”

Suddenly, the door opened, revealed Ziana’s serious and angry face.

“Ziana.” Boris raised his eyebrow

Ziana didn’t speak. She grabbed his wrist, and dragged him into the room.

He was dragged staggeringly, but a wandering smile was on his face, “Why are you being so impatient?”

Ziana ignored him, dragged him to the bathroom, and pushed him under the shower.

The next second, she turned on the water suddenly.

Cold water poured down from his head. Boris’ handsome face was puzzled and confused.

He looked at Ziana. Her chin was tight, her mouth was pursed, and she looked up at him.

Those beautiful eyes looked extraordinarily charming because of the water mist.

She was very close to him, and the water splashed on both of them.

Boris frowned. The water temperature was not high. What was she trying to do?

“Get out.” He pushed her out; “Don’t catch a cold.”

Ziana stubbornly refused to move. She took down the shower head, pointed it at him, and said. sullenly, “Clean yourself up, you…”

She saw the lipstick mark on his face, and rubbed it vigorously with her little hands.

Boris was staring at her, and his eyes became brighter and deeper.

Her expression was stubborn, at the same time, wronged. She was like a pissed-off little girl.

Suddenly.

He grabbed her little hand.

Ziana was holding back, and her voice sounded pitiful; “Let go of me! It hasn’t been cleaned yet!”

Boris refused, grabbed her little hand, raised it above the head, and moved his body against her.

Ziana bitted her lip and wanted to dodge, but he controlled her waist. He pushed her against the wall and hugged her tightly. The more she struggled, he hugged her tighter until she could barely breathe.

Ziana stared at him with red eyes; “Boris! Let go of me!”

Boris looked at her condescendingly, and a smile slowly appeared on his cold face. He was a little proud, and his tone was firm; “Honey, you’re jealous.”

“I am not.”

“You are.” Boris interrupted her; “You are definitely jealous.”

“I am not.” Ziana repeated.

Boris suddenly touched her leg with his own leg. Ziana’s expression was frozen immediately, but he didn’t stop there, his thigh gently rubbed against her, up and down.

“Boris!” Ziana blurted out; “Don’t touch me! You are not clean!”

“You said you weren’t jealous.” Boris wasn’t annoyed at all. His woman cared about him, and was jealous. He bent down and gently wrapped her around him; “I didn’t touch her, I’m clean. Don’t be angry.”

Ziana stared at the lipstick marks on his face, and the hickey marks on his white shirt.

Boris smiled and said, “I did it myself. There are cosmetics in that room. She wanted to get close to me, but I drove her away. I’m your man, and I must be faithful to you. How can I let other woman get close to me?”

Chapter 455 Mr. Lewis’ Affectionate Confession

Boris was wearing a white shirt with undeniable lipstick marks on it.

When Ziana and the rest rushed into the room, they were all shocked by the scene in front of them.

So no one noticed what was wrong with the lipstick marks on his clothes.

Everyone is used to preconceived ideas. When they saw two of them were together in a private room, it must be Winifred who could not wait to kiss Boris.

After being reminded by Boris, she quickly discovered that not only the shape of the lips did not match Winifred’s, and also the size of the lip marks.

Ziana’s tense little face finally burst into a smile. She laughed, Boris also laughed. He stared at her intently, and joked, “Are you willing to be happy now?”

Ziana quickly put on a straight face again.

Boris couldn’t help but laugh.

He held her tiny face, before she struggled, he forced her to meet his eyes; “Honey, listen to me.”

His eyes were deep and cold, and his blue pupils sucked her in like a bottomless pool.

Ziana forgot to speak for a moment. All she could hear was his low and pure voice like cello, slowly ringing in her ears.

“Before I met you five years ago, I had no other women. At that time, when I was abroad, was almost occupied by studies and careers. Therefore, although many women showed affection to me and even entangled me. I have no interest in those women, and I even think that talking to them is a waste of time and life.”

“You said I was your first love, but you are also my first love. With you, I have experienced many of my first times. The first time I held hands with a woman, the first time I hugged a woman, and the first time I was with a woman kissing, putting a woman to sleep for the first time, and having a woman for the first time.”

“Since Lwas an adult, I have only had you as a partner. I am very obedient and clean. Because I know that with your character, you will not want an unfaithful man, so…”

He whispered in her ear, “I cherish myself very much. I have only slept with you and will only sleep with you in my life.”

The warm breath exhaled by the man fell on her skin delicately. It made her feel distracted.

What made her feel even more panicked and overwhelmed was the straightforward affection he expressed.

Her heart was pounding, and her body seemed slightly weak because of his words.

Although He looked dignified and cold, like a noble emperor, sacred and inviolable.

But the words he uttered just now, were rough and voluptuous. He was like a master of love affairs.

Ziana pursed her lips, her cheeks were burning hot. She didn’t know whether it was from shame or anger. In short, her mind went blank, and she didn’t know what to say. novelbin

She moved her lips, but Boris interrupted her with a smile, “Shhh…’

He pressed his index finger on her mouth, gently rubbed her lips with his slightly cold fingertips, and then said, “Honey, life is very short. Many people can’t find true love in their lives, but we found each other. It’s indeed not easy.”

“We used to shine brightly in each other’s youth, and later we had no choice but to separate because of fate. Even when we met later, we ignored fate and hurt each other… We have gone through so much, until now, finally, after unraveling those mysteries, I realized that we love each other deeply. We had a tough journey, so, don’t waste time, anymore.”

“Let’s reconciled. From now on, I will give you all my heart and my desires.”

Facing the sudden confession, Ziana had the urge to cry.

Boris was the man she had loved twice. The man she would fall in love at first sight, even if she were hypnotized.

Whether it was five years ago or three years ago, in this relationship between the two of them, she was always the one who confessed first.

She loved him, so naturally, she didn’t want to care so much. But she was a woman, she still looked forward to his affectionate confession, even if she didn’t care.

She wanted to hear him talk about his love for her, and she wanted to listen to his courtship seriously as if she was essential to him.

Maybe it was her obsession.

She could be a warrior who fight for love for him. But she still hoped that her man would let her be a beloved princess.

Initially, she thought that a man as serious as him would not confess his love.

Never expected that his confession would be so sweet.

Ziana couldn’t hold back, and her tears gushed out from those beautiful eyes.

“Why are you crying?” Boris said helplessly and dotingly, “It’s on me, I shouldn’t make you cry. Baby, can I apologize to you? Don’t cry. It’s ok if you don’t want to reconcile with me, I won’t mention reconciliation anymore. As long as you let me stay by your side, it doesn’t matter if you don’t want to reconcile with me.”

He sighed and gently wiped her tears; “Stop crying, I was wrong. It’s all my fault, and you can punish me. How about hitting me?”

As he spoke, he grabbed her little hand and hit his face.

Ziana came to her senses and quickly withdrew her hand. Boris leaned forward, towards Ziana; “Baby, are you unwilling to hit me?”

“Boris.” Ziana cried and choked; “Boris, you… You are a bastard.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” She was willing to talk to him, and he liked to hear whatever she said. He didn’t refute her but agreed her words and said, “I’m a bastard, a big bastard. I only know how to bully my wife. And I deserve a hit, I’ll hit myself hard later, okay? I’ll hit wherever you say, okay?”

His gentle tone was similar to five years ago when they were in love.

The past flashed in the eyes like a movie.

The emotions that Ziana had held back for so long, finally released.

All the grievances, anger, helplessness, and complaints appeared in her mind, and she suddenly burst into tears.

Boris panicked and hurriedly wiped her tears. But no matter how he wiped, it seemed that her tears would not stop. She talked about what happened five years ago, about being kidnapped, about

hypnosis, about her marriage in the past three years, and listed down his bad behaviors. Boris listened quietly and echoed.

“Well, I won’t be arrogant anymore…”

“I will always listen to my baby from now on. Whatever you say.”

“I swear. I will tell you everything from now on, and I will never lie.”

“Okay, let’s share weal and woe, and I won’t push you away anymore.”

Ziana finally stopped, sat up straight, and looked at him.

He smiled and let her looked at him.

The next second.

She stretched out her hand, touched his eyes, and asked cautiously, “I haven’t asked you yet, have you recovered?”

The little woman’s fingers, with delicate skin. Her fragrance penetrated Boris’ nostrils.

Her slightly red and swollen eyes were fixed on him, and only his reflection was in the bright and blue pupils.

Boris swallowed his saliva, grabbed her little hand, and chuckled, “Yes.”

“Does it still hurt?”

“It doesn’t hurt anymore.”

“Let me touch it.” Her little hand came out of his big palm and touched his eyes again.

Over and over, very gently.

Just when she was about to continue, Boris stopped her suddenly and couldn’t help but pull her hand off with a cold face.

Ziana looked at him suspiciously.

“Stop touching it.” His breath was abnormal, his eyes seemed on fire. And it felt like he wanted to engulf her; “If you keep touching me, something will happen.”

Chapter 456 Call Me Honey

The implication in his tone was too obvious.

Ziana’s face became even hotter, but she did not avoid the topic this time. Instead, she raised her head and asked, “What will happen?”

Boris’ face was stern, and his jaw was tense as he fixed Ziana with a dangerous stare.

All of a sudden, he smiled and casually answered, with a hint of playfulness and teasing, “We’ll have a new baby.”

Ziana’s heart softened instantly. She subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but Boris refused..

He rubbed her hand, and his eyes fell on her face. “It’s not right to tease and then run away, you know?”

“Boris…”

“Don’t call me Boris.” He corrected her with a chuckle. “Call me honey.”

He picked her up from the floor, kicked open the bedroom door, put her on the bed, and leaned over to kiss her.

His kiss came with such force that it instantly stole the air from her mouth.

Ziana felt weak all over, and her head lacked oxygen. She could only rely on him to breathe.

Boris smiled and kissed her, his fingers not idle. He seemed to know her body better than her. Wherever his fingers went, he ignited a flame of desire.

Ziana felt that she was like a small boat floating on the ocean, while he was the stormy waves that could capsize her at any time.

“Boris…” she whispered, “I feel like I can’t breathe… like I can’t think… Help me…”

Boris kissed the tip of her sweaty nose. His voice was enchanting and full of temptation. He said softly in her ear, “Good girl… call me honey. I’ll give you everything I have, including my life.”

Ziana couldn’t stand what he was doing, so she cried, “Oh… Honey…”

The sound of “Honey” was like the strongest aphrodisiac, which made Boris lose all reason in an instant.

He kissed her hard on the lips and coaxed, “Hold me tight, baby. Just leave the rest to me.”

This storm lasted for 2 hours before it finally ended.

Ziana had fallen into a deep sleep now.

But Boris was not tired at all. Instead, He had never felt so refreshed for a moment as now.

The woman he loved the most was by his side. She was sleeping in his arms with an affectionate and satisfied look.

Boris looked down at her.

Her bare shoulders were still tinged with a suggestive, ambiguous pink hue. He pulled the quilt up and leaned over to kiss her on the lips.

“Honey, we’ll never be separated again.”

The next day.

Ziana slowly opened her eyes, but as she tried to move, she felt that her whole body was sore.

She suddenly remembered what happened last night, and her face suddenly became hot.

Suddenly, a big hand fell on her forehead.

Boris rubbed her forehead gently and said with a smile, “Good morning, honey.”

The next second, his handsome and stern face was right in front of her eyes. Boris winked at her and revealed his perfectly aligned teeth as he smiled.

Ziana was stiff all over. “Morning.”

“Just that?” Boris was dissatisfied. He leaned over to kiss her. “Call me honey.”

Hearing his words, Ziana thought of the scene where he coaxed her to call him honey over and over again last night.

She was so embarrassed that she couldn’t lift her head and pushed him awkwardly. “Move, I’m getting up.”

“Call me honey before that,” he said domineeringly, “Or do you want to deny what happened last night?”

“Don’t bring it up.”

“So you want to deny it!” Boris put on a look of “just as I suspected.” “I knew it would be like this. Anyway, you have denied it many times before I understand. After all, I am good-looking and have some skills. You happened to be feeling lonely, and I happened to be there, so I became your outlet. In other words, you just wanted to play with me. Otherwise, why would you be calling me ‘honey’ last night and then turning your back on me now that you’ve had your fun?”

“You….” Hearing his vulgar and explicit words, Ziana quickly covered his mouth. “I didn’t.”

“Then why don’t you call me honey?” He pouted, feeling extremely aggrieved. “You just said those words last night to coax me into bed, right? You don’t want to make up with me at all, do you?”

“I didn’t!”

However, Boris ignored her words and remained immersed in great sadness. “Actually, you didn’t need to say those insincere words. If you need me, just signal to me and I’ll be there. You don’t have to go to the trouble of coaxing me. Maybe your words were just a game to you, but I am foolish and naive enough to take them seriously.”

Ziana chuckled in exasperation. She couldn’t stand it any longer, so she compromised, “Honey, stop pretending.”

Boris was overjoyed. He looked at her in an exaggerated manner, with his eyes wide open. “Honey, what did you call me just now? I didn’t hear clearly.”

Ziana rolled her eyes at him. “Honey.”

“Honey!” Boris hugged her tightly. His voice was low and sexy. “I thought you were going to deny it again.”

“Didn’t we agree to make up?” Ziana blinked at him.

Boris took a deep look at her and passionately kissed her on the lips.

Ziana was not a hypocritical woman. She wasn’t three or five years ago, and she wasn’t now either. She had refused him before, wanting to make trouble with him, but her heart had always belonged to him. How long could she hold out without wavering?novelbin

Since she would eventually be captivated by him anyway, she might as well follow her heart’s choice. She kissed him back.

The two of them lingered in each other’s embrace for quite some time until Ziana’s stomach. growled.

Boris smiled and said, “I’ll go and prepare breakfast for you. We can’t have you going hungry. Maybe our daughter is already in your belly.”

Ziana glared at him. “It’s impossible.”

“That’s hard to say. We got Ewen after just one try, didn’t we? I have pretty good accuracy.”

“Get out.” Ziana urged him, “I’m hungry.”

“I’ll be back soon. Just wait here.”

Boris put on his clothes and went out of the room.

He was immersed in the joy of reconciling with Ziana, completely unaware that not far behind him, a figure had quickly hidden itself away. It was not until a long time after Boris left that Edison emerged from around the corner. He watched Boris’ back as his fists clenched tighter and tighter.

‘Why did Boris come out of Ziana’s room?

Could it be… that they were together last night?

Moreover, from the way Boris looked just now, he doesn’t seem foolish at all!’ Edison thought.

Chapter 457 Breakfast Lovingly Prepared by Edison

Edison came with breakfast for Ziana. Little did he expect to find something like that.

It left him feeling very unhappy.

He suddenly hated Ziana very much. He hated her favoritism toward Boris. He hated her for deceiving him along with Boris.

‘She must have known for a long time that Boris isn’t intellectually challenged, but she didn’t tell me!

Why?’ Edison thought.

He was displeased and resentful. He did not understand it.

Why did Ziana only have Boris in her heart, even though Boris had hurt her so badly during their three years of marriage?

Edison felt it was unfair. He couldn’t bear it anymore and punched the wall hard!

“Bang.”

He was gasping for breath. His hand hurt badly, but his heart hurt even more!

After venting, Edison waited for a long time before he calmed down. He walked slowly to Ziana’s room and raised his hand to knock on the door.

“Knock, knock.”

“Coming.” Her gentle voice came from inside. “Why did you…”

Seeing Edison, Ziana stopped abruptly, and the smile on her face froze.

Edison knew what was going on, but he still asked jokingly, “Surprised to see me?”

“Yes, I’m quite surprised.” Ziana quickly regained her composure, smiled, and gently adjusted her nightgown. “What are you doing here?”

Edison’s eyes then fell on her.

She was wearing a milky green satin nightgown, loose yet sexy, made of high-quality fabric that faintly outlined her curvaceous figure. Her bare shoulders were round and fair, and her beautiful hair fell sensually on them, exuding a lazy and sexy charm that perfectly balanced innocence and maturity, creating a conflicting beauty.

Suddenly, Edison narrowed his eyes.

On the back of her slender and alluring neck, there were several obvious love bites!

“What are you looking at?” Ziana felt confused and asked when Edison did not reply.

Edison took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his chest. He said calmly, “Nothing special. I’m here with breakfast for you.”

“…”

“Don’t tell me you’ve eaten.” Edison interrupted what she was going to say. He raised his eyebrows and said, “It looks like you just got out of bed.”

Ziana smiled awkwardly. It was true that she just got up. If she hadn’t thought that Boris had returned, she would have been probably still lying in bed.

“Don’t just stand there. Get changed and wash up for breakfast.” With that, Edison walked into the room, ignoring Ziana’s awkwardness.

Ziana watched his back as she said, “I’m not hungry yet. I want to sleep a little longer.”

“It’s already so late and you still want to sleep?” Edison had already put the breakfast on the table. He winked at her and said, “Come on, I specially bought you some Wesbruck-style food for breakfast. When you’re in Wesbruck, you have to try the authentic breakfast here.”

Then, he suddenly asked, “By the way, were you waiting for someone just now?”

Ziana nodded. “Yes, Yudel said he would buy me breakfast.”

Edison’s eyes darkened slightly. “That’s unfortunate. I should have come earlier so we can have breakfast with Mr. Scott.”

Seeing Ziana still not moving, he said helplessly, “Do you want me to help you wash up?”

“No.” Ziana gathered her thoughts. “I’ll be back soon. You can leave now if you can’t wait.”

“It’s okay, I’ll wait for you. I have something to tell you.”

Ziana pursed her lips. She went into the bathroom and sent Boris a text message, telling him that

Edison was in her room now.

After that, she took her time to wash up before she walked out of the bathroom and sat down at the table..

“Try this.” Edison took some food for Ziana and put it on her plate. “It’s delicious, not too sweet.”

After thanking him, Ziana didn’t start eating but instead asked, “What do you want to say to me? Actually, you’re engaged now and you shouldn’t be meeting with me alone.”

“The engagement banquet has been canceled,” Edison interrupted her and said with a faint smile, “My engagement with Winifred has also been canceled.”

Ziana was very surprised. “Why?”

She had been making love with Boris last night and hadn’t paid attention to what had happened.

outside.

While she had expected the engagement banquet to be canceled, the cancellation of the engagement itself was beyond her expectations.

Edison explained to her, “Winifred’s scandal has become public knowledge. In order to maintain the face and dignity of the Western Royalty, my father refused to accept a woman with a tarnished reputation as his daughter-in-law. So, the engagement was called off.”

Generally, aristocrats from royal families were very concerned about reputation, so it was understandable that the king of Wesbruck would do that.

Ziana said quietly, “It’s a pity for both of you.”

“To be honest…” Edison looked at her and said seriously, “I’m actually relieved that the engagement has been called off. It wasn’t my idea to marry Winifred in the first place. Winifred had an accident on the island which traumatized her. That’s why she and Duke Bourne both became entangled with me. I have no feelings for her at all. The one I truly love, from the beginning to the end, has always been you.”

“Edison!” Ziana frowned and responded, “I’ve told you that you’re out of the game.”

Edison smiled bitterly, “I know, but I’m not willing to give up. I just want to fight for myself a little longer.”

Ziana said lightly, “Sorry.”

Edison sighed, “You don’t have to feel sorry for me. I already guessed your answer before I came here, so I don’t feel too upset now. Anyway, let’s stop talking about this. Are you still planning to leave for Oslosall today? If you are not in a hurry, why don’t you stay a few more days and let me show you around Wesbruck as your tour guide.”

“No, thanks.” Ziana refused.

“Is it impossible for us to be friends if we can’t be lovers?” Edison looked at her, feeling aggrieved. “You’ve been rejecting me all along, and it really hurts me. I know I don’t have a chance with you, but I just want to do what I should do as your friend here.”

“Don’t get me wrong. It’s just that I didn’t bring Ewen with me this time. He’s been very attached to me lately and can’t stay away from me for too long, or he’ll get upset,” Zlana used Ewen as an excuse as she explained to Edison, “I’ll definitely come back and let you be my tour guide when I have a chance in the future.”

“Okay then.” Edison knew when to stop. He handed her the milk and said, “There’s still some follow-up work to deal with regarding Winifred’s matter, so I may not have time to see you off when you leave today. Now, let’s raise a glass of milk to wish you a good journey.”

With that, Edison raised the milk and gestured toward Ziana.

Ziana just wanted Edison to leave quickly because she still hadn’t received a reply from Boris. She was wondering if Boris had seen her text message.

If Boris hadn’t seen the message and came back while Edison was still around, Edison would find out that Boris was pretending to be intellectually challenged, wouldn’t he?

Thinking that, she raised her milk and clinked glasses with Edison. “Okay, let’s wish you a smooth. solution to all your problems as well.”

“Thank you.” Edison took a sip and said to her, “Try it. This milk is very delicious.”

Ziana took a sip as he said. To her surprise, it wasn’t too sweet or too thick. The taste was really good.

“See?” Edison boasted, “I didn’t lie to you, did 1?”

“It’s delicious.” Ziana took another sip. The milk was so delicious that she couldn’t help wanting more.

Edison glanced at his watch. “Just enjoy your breakfast. I have something to do at the palace, so I’ll leave now.”

Ziana was eager for him to leave. She got up to see him off. “Okay, go ahead.”

“Ziana.” Edison took a deep look at her. “Bon voyage.”

After watching Edison leave, Ziana breathed a sigh of relief. She closed the door and called Boris.

Boris quickly answered.

“Has that annoying guy left?” Boris asked straightforwardly.

Ziana was amused by what Boris called Edison. She chuckled and said, “Yes, he’s left. When are you coming back?”

“So you were still thinking about me?” Boris sarcastically taunted, “I thought you only cared about your new man and forgot about me!”

Hearing that, Ziana sald, “I haven’t planned to find a new man yet, but if you want me to…”

“Are you asking for trouble?” Boris snorted and chuckled. “If you ever have any new man, I’ll kill every one of them. And if you think I’m getting old and annoying…” novelbin

“What? Can I replace you with a new one?”

“Well, you’ll have to put up with me then because I’ll stay with you for the rest of my life.”

“If so, that would be annoying.” Ziana laughed loudly. She picked up the milk on the table and took several more sips. “Come back now, or I’ll have someone else stay with me.”

“Alright,” Boris said lazily, “get into bed and wait for me. If you dare to think about another man, I’ll teach you a good lesson

Chapter 458 Boris Was Full of Lust

Ziana called Boris a dirty pervert and then quickly hung up the phone, her face flushed with embarrassment.

Boris had a way of teasing Ziana with just a few words, making her cheeks flush and her heart beat.

Boris was such a jerk.

Normally, Boris had a cold and aloof demeanor and seemed very restrained and disciplined. Who would have thought that in private, he was so lascivious and unrestrained?

But whenever Ziana thought that Boris only showed his non-serious side to her, Ziana’s heart would swell with warmth.

Ziana couldn’t help but recall the passionate night before, with Boris’ eyes burning with desire and Boris’ satisfied, sexy moans seemed to be still echoing in her ears…

Even though they already had a child together, Ziana still felt like a novice in the ways of love.

The more she thought about what happened last night, the more she couldn’t stop. Finally, Ziana had to hide under the quilt in embarrassment.

When Boris came back, this was the scene that greeted him.

Boris was stunned. He put the breakfast on the table and walked over to Ziana with a smile, teasing her. “You’re so obedient, lying in bed like that. Are you waiting for me to spank you?”

“No,” Ziana murmured from under the quilt.

“Is that so?” Boris asked lightly. “You got up before. Why are you back in bed again? Did you want to do something with me?”

Ziana’s body was already hot, and Boris’ low and seductive voice made Ziana feel more aroused.

“No, no…”

But before Ziana could finish, Boris lifted the quilt and their eyes met. After a while, Ziana said in surprise, “Boris, what are you doing…”

Ziana was wearing a pale green silk nightgown that made her skin look alluringly pink from the heat.

Boris suddenly lifted the quilt, startling Ziana. Ziana’s two slender legs curled up and even her round toes were curled up.

Zlana’s already thin clothes hung loosely on her body as she moved, revealing glimpses of her voluptuous curves, as well as the faint traces of the marks left from Boris’ passionate kisses the night before.

“What am I doing?” Boris’ eyes darkened, his voice full of desire. “I wasn’t thinking about doing anything before, but now I just want you.’

He was not a saint or impotent, so of course, he would have a physical reaction. Besides, the woman in front of him was the one he loved most deeply.

Ziana was beautiful and alluring, and it would be disrespectful to Ziana’s stunning beauty if he didn’t do anything.

Boris licked his lips, his gaze like that of a wolf, as if he wanted to ravage Ziana completely.

Ziana subconsciously grabbed the quilt, but it was still too late.

Boris had already kissed Ziana and wrapped his arms around Ziana’s waist, coaxing her with at seductive tone. “Be good, give yourself to me.”

Boris’ eyes were deep black, like an unyielding dark cloud, yet they were also watery, showing restraint and a hint of supplication.

Ziana put her arms around Boris’ neck, surrendering to Boris completely.

But soon, she realized that this decision was a mistake.

With a delicate and sweet voice, Ziana called out, “Boris.”

Only then did Boris spare Ziana.

The two of them had been intimate for so long that they didn’t even realize the whole morning had passed by.

Ziana was lying on the bed feeling weak all over, and as soon as she recovered a bit of strength, she kicked her feet toward Boris.

Boris reacted quickly, but instead of dodging, he caught Ziana’s ankle when Ziana finished kicking and tried to retract it.

Ziana glared at Boris and said, “Let go.”

“It seems that you still have strength. Didn’t you just say you were tired?” Boris sneered, “Were you lying to me?”

“If I didn’t lie to you, would I still be alive?” Ziana said gloomily. “My legs are all weak.”

‘Come here, let me give you a rub,” Boris beckoned to Ziana, Boris’ big hand reaching for Ziana’s legs.

Ziana didn’t dare to comply and stopped Boris’ hand, saying, “As long as you don’t touch me, I can rest well.”

Ziana was accusing Boris of being too handsy.

Boris laughed in a low voice, helplessly brushing her nose, “I’m not that much of a pervert and I don’t want to hurt you.”

“You’re not?” Ziana rolled her eyes at Boris.

Boris had no choice but to confess, “It’s been almost two years since I slept with anyone else after being with you. I was going crazy. Can you understand?”

“You!” Ziana’s body temperature, which had just dropped, suddenly rose again, “Why are you talking so lewdly now?”

“I’m only like this in front of you,” Boris kissed Ziana’s face. “Let me clean you up, then we’ll get up and have breakfast.”

Ziana muttered, “Breakfast or lunch?”

“Whatever you want,” Boris followed Ziana’s lead, teasing Ziana with a suggestive tone. “Let’s have two meals today because my wife is exhausted.”

Ziana covered Boris’ mouth in embarrassment.

Boris carried Ziana to take a shower, and at first, Ziana was afraid Boris would do something inappropriate, but fortunately, Boris restrained himself and didn’t mess around.

As soon as they finished tidying up, the doorbell rang.

Boris went to answer the door, and after a while, he came back with lunch.

Boris called Ziana, “Come and have lunch, I’ll make sure you’re properly nourished at noon.”novelbin

Ziana sat obediently in her seat, watching Boris plate each dish.

Lunch was delivered from a five-star hotel.

This hotel was world-renowned and had branches in both Oslosall and Scope Island. The food was quite in line with Ziana’s taste.

When Boris was plating, he took care of the breakfast that Edison had brought.

Ziana suddenly stopped Boris, “Wait, don’t throw away the soy milk.”

“What?” Boris snorted, “Can you be bought with just a small cup of soy milk?”

Ziana put the soy milk to Boris’ mouth and said, “I think this soy milk tastes very good. Try it.”

“I don’t drink what my rival buys.” Boris paid attention to the name of the soy milk, “I’ll let Nell buy this shop later, then you can drink as much as you want. Oh, and I need to emphasize that it shouldn’t be sold in Wesbruck, especially not to Edison.”

“You’re so childish,” Ziana hummed speechlessly, “I’ll drink if you don’t.”

“You are not allowed to drink it.” Boris snatched the soy milk, drank it in one gulp, and then threw the cup into the trash can, commenting, “The taste is just average.”

As Boris said, he took a new cup of soy milk from the breakfast he had brought back and handed it to Ziana. “If you want to drink, have what I bought. It’s definitely better than what Edison got because it’s filled with my love.”

Ziana looked at Boris amusedly, “Childish.”

Boris snorted, with an expression that said, “So what if I’m childish?”

Ziana didn’t dare say anything about Edison because Ziana was afraid that Boris would carry her to bed again.

Ziana changed the subject wittily, “I’m hungry. Let’s have lunch.”

“Wait.” Boris stared at Ziana, scrutinizing Ziana up and down, his brow furrowing tighter and tighter. “Did you just wear this nightgown to see Edison?”

Chapter 459 Send Her Away From Wesbruck

Boris’ inquisitive expression on his face made Ziana alert.

Ziana did wear that pajama to meet Edison at first, thinking it was Boris who had come back with breakfast.

After finding out that it was not Boris, Ziana immediately went to the bathroom and changed her clothes.

However, having just climbed out of bed, Ziana didn’t want to be punished by Boris again, so Ziana improvised, “No.”

Ziana explained to Boris, “After Edison left, I changed it back.”

Boris looked at Ziana, trying to determine the veracity of Ziana’s words.

After a while, Boris snorted, “That’s more like it. From now on, when you go out, don’t wear clothes that are too revealing.”

“Why do you care about what I wear?” Ziana was speechless. “Boris, you’re too domineering. I have the freedom to dress as I please.”

“Okay.” Boris licked his teeth, and gently took a dish for Ziana, “You have your freedom to dress as you please, and I have my freedom to sleep with you.”

“What do you mean?”

Boris looked up at Ziana, and explained casually, “I mean you can wear revealing clothes.”

“Then what?”

“Then I’ll tie you up and love you properly.” Boris’ words were direct and impactful.

Ziana was ashamed and angry, “Why?”

“Because I don’t want other men to see your body.” Boris pulled Ziana’s hand towards him and down his body.

When Ziana guessed what Boris was going to do, Ziana was so shy that she wanted to withdraw, but she heard Boris say, “I’m a man, and I know what men are like. Don’t you know how beautiful you are? I’m already restraining myself a lot, yet I’m still acting this way. If it is other men, do you think what will happen?”

“Men can’t help but think about sex. It’s determined by their physiology.” Boris leaned in and whispered a few words in Ziana’s ear, causing Ziana’s neck to visibly turn red. Then Boris smirked and said, “But I’m not narrow-minded. I want you to be happy, so you can wear normal clothes, but, anything that reveals your chest or back, you can only wear it for me to see.”

“Got it?”

Ziana’s worldview was shaken by Boris’ words.

She nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and asked, “Is it true that all men are like that?”

“Why would I lie to you?” Boris didn’t change his expression. “Except for your husband, all other

men are bad guys.”

“So, did you remember what I said?”

Ziana pursed her lips. “Oh, I remember.”

“It doesn’t matter if you can’t remember.” Boris smiled brightly, “If I punish you a few more times,

I’m sure you’ll remember.”

Ziana looked at Boris angrily. “I really remembered! I think you just want to use punishment as an excuse to satisfy your own desires.”

“What else?” Boris was unapologetic. “After we make up, this is all I can think about.”

Boris was so frank that Ziana was left speechless. With Ziana’s lips twitching a few times, Ziana urged Boris, “Just have your food.”

Not long after the two had finished eating, Yudel came over.

Boris opened the door and as soon as he saw Yudel, he greeted Yudel with a honeyed voice, “Yudel, have you eaten yet?”

“Didn’t you ask Nell to bring me the meal?” Yudel noticed Boris’ satisfied expression and guessed that Boris had gotten what he wanted.

Boris smiled, “Yudel, are you full?”

“Hmm.” Yudel was still not used to it.

Compared to Boris acting like a devoted lapdog, Yudel still preferred Boris’ haughty and domineering manner, where Boris looked down on everyone else.

Boris’ sycophantic behavior made Yudel feel both comfortable and strange.

“What brings you here, Yudel?” Ziana coughed lightly and asked.

“I just wanted to make sure you don’t forget about tonight’s flight,” Yudel said in a way that seemed like he was saying nothing at all, yet also implying everything.

Ziana was embarrassed by her brother’s teasing and couldn’t bear it.

She replied seriously, “I won’t forget.”

They had agreed to leave Wesbruck after the engagement banquet.

“Okay then. We’ll leave for the airport at seven o’clock.”

Yudel said and left, not wanting to be a third wheel.

After Yudel left, Ziana asked Boris, “When are you going back to Japera City? Are you coming with me tonight?”

“When I came to Wesbruck, Boris had clung to me like a leech, but now that I was leaving, he probably wouldn’t have much fun staying here.”

Ziana thought so.

But Boris’ response was completely different from what she had guessed.

Boris hugged Ziana in his arms, and stroked Ziana’s soft shoulder with his large hand, “You go back to Japera City first. I have something to do here.”

Ziana looked at Boris puzzled, “What’s the matter?”

“Anyway, it’s not about sleeping with women,” Boris joked, always finding ways to tease Ziana.

Seeing Ziana trying to break free from his embrace, Boris pleasingly held Ziana tighter and said, “At the engagement banquet, I was locked in a room. I need an explanation for that. The royal family’s verdict was that it was because a maid held a grudge against Winifred, but I was implicated for no reason. I have to wait for an apology.”

“What will happen to the Lewis Company’s reputation if I leave like this after such a major incident with Wesbruck holding no one accountable?”

Boris’ reasoning was sound. For families like theirs, especially those with global influence, dignity and face were extremely important.

They couldn’t lose their dignity, even if they lost everything else.

From an outsider’s perspective, it appeared that Boris was being bullied because of his perceived foolishness. If he didn’t take a firm stance in this matter, the Lewis Company’s reputation would be at risk of being ridiculed in the future.

“Okay,” Ziana’s mood was a bit low.

Ziana thought for a moment and said reluctantly, “How about I stay with you? I’ll leave with you after you finish your business here.”

The two of them had recently reconciled and were in the midst of a passionate and affectionate time, so Ziana didn’t want to be separated from Boris.

“I do want you to stay, but I can’t.” Boris was more calm and more restrained than Ziana.

Boris kissed Ziana on her lips, “What reason do you have to stay?”

“I’ll tell them I want to explore Wesbruck!”

“No.” Boris shook his head firmly and said, “Wesbruck is not my turf, and there’s also a love rival

here. I can’t relax while you’re here. You must return to Japera City as soon as possible. Japera City is my turf where I can take care of you no matter what happens, but most importantly, you’ll be safe there.” novelbin

Ziana understood Boris’ meaning in seconds and asked, “Are you still worried about what Mr. Collins, who kidnapped us, will do?”

“Hmm.” Boris didn’t hide from Ziana, “Besides, Winifred hates you. And this engagement is canceled. I’m afraid that she will go crazy and come after you. In short, if you stay here, I will be distracted, so you go back to Japera City, okay?”

Boris talked to Ziana in a soft voice, making Ziana completely overwhelmed.

Ziana nodded obediently, “Okay. Then when are you going back?”

“We haven’t even parted ways yet, and you already miss me?” Boris chuckled and said, “I’ll make sure to video call you every day to update you on my itinerary. If it’s a short trip, I’ll be back in three or four days, but if it’s longer, it might take six or seven days. Once you’re back in Japera City, could you do me a favor and put in a good word for me with Ewen?”

When Boris mentioned Ewen, Ziana couldn’t help but feel a little smug and said, “You deserve it!

Your own son hates you, so you’ll have to figure it out yourself! I won’t help you!”

“Are you so hard-hearted?” Boris teased as his hands roamed over Ziana’s body. “Let me see if there’s anywhere on you that’s soft.”

“You…”

Boris swallowed all Ziana’s unspoken words.

While Boris was planning for Ziana to leave Wesbruck, Edison was scheming to make Ziana stay.

On Edison’s way back from the guest house, Edison received a call from Princess Lia and headed straight to the Elegant Poetry Hotel.

The attendant led Edison to a private room where he found his mother, Mr. Collins, and at mysterious woman.

The woman was dressed in exotic clothing with strange silver jewelry and a black vell covering her face, revealing only a pair of cold eyes.

“Edison, come and sit here.” Princess Lia beckoned Edison over.

Edison walked over and sat next to Princess Lia, greeting everyone in the room.

Pablo looked at him with a smile, “How did it go? Did you watch Ziana drink the soy milk?”

Chapter 460 No Way Back

Edison trimmed his cuffs and took another look at the weird woman.

Pablo knew his worries, pointed at the woman beside him, and said with a nonchalant smile, “Let me introduce to you, this is what I told you, the master who can put a curse from Thaind. So, say what you want, don’t hide it.”

“Is it a woman?” Edison was surprised by the person’s gender, and there was some doubt in hist tone.

Pablo was well-informed, so he patiently told about Edison that, “There are more women than men who can put a curse in Thaind, especially in terms of emotions, the skills and effects of female head- bending masters are far superior to those of male head-bending masters. Her name is Sarivania, you can call her Nia.”

Edison nodded, as a greeting, before answering the previous question, “She drank soy milk, what should she do next?”

“What you need to do has already been done, and Nia will take care of everything for you.” Pablo had the confidence to control everything, and his tone was full of complacency, “Now eat first, finish eating, then she knew how to do it.”

“How?” Edison smiled.

He always felt that this kind of thing was very mysterious. He didn’t believe in these things before, and even now, he didn’t particularly believe in them.

It was only because of Pablo’s face, and after hearing his swearing assurance, that he was willing to let him try.

Seeing his absent-minded appearance, Pablo guessed his thoughts, “Haven’t you heard the witchery of putting a curse from Thaind?”

“I’ve heard it.” Edison replied frankly, “But I always thought it was fake.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Nia, who was sitting next to him in a strange dress, snorted coldly, “That’s because you are ignorant, but it doesn’t matter, after today, you will completely become a believer in the witchery of putting a curse, the love technique I practiced are hundreds times so far, and there has not been a single case of failure.”

“Yes, Nia is genius among the national masters, and it is for this reason that I invited her to come to qur Wesbruck from a long distance,” Pablo praised.

Nia raised her chin with a very disdainful expression.

Edison snorted, and immediately a worried look appeared on his face.

Pablo narrowed his eyes, and he was a bit unhappy, “What does your expression mean?”

Seeing this, Princess Lia quickly pushed Edison, and said softly, “Your Uncle Pablo won’t harm you, he has done so much for us these years, don’t you believe Uncle Pablo?”

“No.” Edison knew that their mother and son’s happy life today was inseparable from Mr. Collins” painstaking planning, so naturally he did not dare to offend Mr. Collins.

He quickly denied it and expressed his true thoughts, “I believe in Uncle Pablo, but I’m just worried

about Ziana. I don’t know much about the witchery of putting a curse, so I don’t know if using this method will cause any harm to her?”

“Huh, isn’t it too late to care about hurting her now?” Nia sneered, “I’ve seen a lot of men like you. On the one hand, you want to get a woman by any means, on the other hand, you pretend to care about her body.”

“I”

“If you really care about her, then let her go.” Nia said provocatively.

Edison’s face was livid, and those seductive eyes seemed to be soaked in blood at the moment, looking at her in amazement and terror.

However, Nia was not afraid, and instead of stopping, she tutted harder, “It’s a pity, you care more about yourself than you care about her, since you have already made such a selfish unilateral decision to tie her by your side, Just stop pretending to be an affectionate and warm man here.”

“Nia.” Pablo said with a cold face, “I invited you here to help with things, not to mock the guests.”

Nia raised her eyebrows and smiled, “I’m sorry, Pablo. Don’t worry, everything will be settled for you.”

After she finished speaking, she picked up the cup and took a sip quietly.

The atmosphere in the room instantly became tense.

Princess Lia smiled and interjected, “Okay, Edison, Ziana won’t be hurt, so don’t worry about it. She will be your wife in the future, how could we hurt her?”

Edison pursed his lips and remained silent.

Princess Lia looked at him a few more times, and turned to please Pablo, “Pablo, I’m hungry, let’s eat.!!

Throughout the meal, several people had different thoughts.

After eating, Pablo led them into a presidential suite upstairs.

As soon as he entered, Edison was stunned.

In the center of the living room, there was a long table with incense burner candles and Ziana’s hair loss from the bathroom.

Around the long table are various wooden statues from Thaind surrounded the table layer by layer.

Right above the head, there was no chandelier, and there were various hanging pictures. The

hanging pictures were covered with yellow talismans, and there were red spells on the talismans.

The entire room was dimly lit, and with such decorations, one felt inexplicably fearful and awe-inspiring.

Edison couldn’t help but took two steps back, but unfortunately someone pushed down his lower back.

When he turned his head, Princess Lia winked at him, “What are you afraid of? You will not be eaten.”

Edison pursed his lips with a hesitant expression.

Taking advantage of no one’s attention, Princess Lia grabbed his hand and said, “We’ve come this far, it’s too late to repent. Think about it, if you don’t do this, what if one day she finds out that you are related to the kidnapping of her five years ago, what do you think she will do to you with her. character?”

Ziana had a strong personality, with a clear distinction between love and hate.

Originally, the time she was pushed downstairs by Winifred, she cut off contact with him.

Later, it was because she recovered her memory, thinking about the life-saving grace he gave her and Boris five years ago, that she attended this engagement banquet.

Right now, she and Boris were reconciled, if she was allowed to leave Wesbruck like this, he would

never have another chance in the future.

She would definitely love Boris and never be separated again!

If she discovered the truth five years ago again, then not only would he lose her, but he would also lose everything he had worked so hard for! novelbin

“There is no turning back for us. You have forced yourself to go down this road since you decided that you must have her. Now your engagement with Winifred is also cancelled. If you don’t catch Ziana, do you think about yourself for the future situation, have you thought about your mother’s situation?”

Her voice was lowered, and her eyes were always on Mr. Collins over there, “The reason why Mr. Collins helped us was because he thought it would be profitable from us, and while you still have value to use, you could win for himself, so that we can sit back and relax for the rest of our lives!”

Edison was sober, completely sober.

He couldn’t turn his head back, he could only grit his teeth and move forward!

“Okay.” He clenched his fists, “I will treat her well in the future, and I will definitely give her the best love and make her the happiest woman.”

After the two had finished talking, Nia just finished her preparations. She announced that everyone would be silenced, and then began to practice.

The process of Nia’s practice was similar to that shown on TV, doing some strange movements, chanting some strange spells, with strange powers.

In the end, she burned Ziana’s hair to ashes, then dusted the ashes into a bowl filled with clean water, and said to Edison, “Take a drop of your blood.”

Edison pricked his finger and did exactly as she told.

The blood dripped into the water and soon melted into the ashes of the hair.

Nia handed the bowl to him, “Drink it, and your wish will come true.”

Edison looked down, and then at Nia.

Nia looked at him with the corners of her lips hanging, her expression serious and solemn.

Edison took the bowl and drank it all in one gulp, then he asked, “Is this the end?

Chapter 461 Edison Was Injured

Nia didn’t answer, but took the bowl away, put it on the long table respectfully, kowtowed three times while chanting some incantation.

No one spoke the whole time.

When she finished kowtowing and stood up, she answered his previous question, “That’s it. The curse has already fallen on her. From then on, she will become more and more obsessed with you.

She will even marry you, she will love you deeply, and love you. forever.”

Edison’s tense and handsome face was stained with an uncomfortable blush from excitement.

He asked without hesitation, “Really?”

“Edison!” Princess Lia interrupted him and scolded, “What Master Nia said must be true.”

Edison couldn’t wait to ask again, “Has the curse already worked?”

“As long as she drank the cup of soy milk with your blood essence in the morning, combined with her hair I asked you to fetch earlier, if there is no mistake in the process, it will definitely work.”

Nia had the pride and confidence of being a genius, and she said, “Once I make a move, there will be no failure.”

“Yes, Master Nia became famous at a young age, and she learned from famous teachers. We are grateful for your help.” Princess Lia complimented.

She was a smart person with a high emotional intelligence, and because of this, she can deal with

all kinds of men like a duck to water.

Nia was very satisfied with her words, but she still reminded, “It’s useless to be grateful, remember to transfer the money to my account.”

“Of course, how can I let you make this trip for nothing?” Princess Lia said kindly, “Since you are here, you will have fun here for a while. Don’t worry, I will pay all the expenses, as long as you can have fun.”

“Then thank you, Princess Lia.” Nia nodded her head in thanks.

Princess Lia smiled, “It’s just… I hope Master Nia will keep this matter a secret.”

“This is my professional ethics, even if I die, I won’t say it.” Nia assured her.

Edison interjected at this time, “How can I be sure whether the curse has worked?”

“You can try it and see if she cares about you.” After Nia finished speaking, she drew out her tone again, causing several people to look at her in unison.

She curled her lips into a smile, looked at Edison and said, “There is one thing to note, the curse works with a gradual process.”

“What do you mean?” Edison asked. novelbin

Nia shrugged and explained, “It means that she won’t fall in love with you all of a sudden, there will be a process of gradual change. It will take about three months for her to love you so hard. After three months, even if you ask her to die for you, she will do so without hesitation.”

“Will she love me forever?”

Nia nodded calmly.

Coming out of the Elegant Poetry Hotel, Edison’s footsteps were light, as if he had settled an important matter on his mind.

It had been a long time since Princess Lia saw such an excited expression on his face.

She couldn’t help but feel happy along with it.

The two got into the car together, and after the car started, Edison asked her uncertainly, “Mother, does the curse really work?”

There were only mother and child in the car, and Princess Lia nodded, “It works, don’t you think your father treats me well now?”

Edison suddenly turned his head to look at her, “What does you mean? Could it be that…”

“It’s time to tell you.” Princess Lia interrupted him, and smiled and brought up the old incident five years ago, “I also had the mentality of giving it a try, so I asked someone to invite the woman who is Nia’s master today. After she helped me put a curse on your father, your father has treated me better and better, and you have seen it all.”

Horton knew about them more than ten years ago and took them back to the palace. However, he had many women. Even if Princess Lia was well maintained at that time, she was no better than a girl in her early twenties. Horton didn’t treat them well.

But five years ago, he suddenly put this mother and son in his heart.

At that time, he thought that it was because of the help from the Scott family that he cared more about them.

It turned out to be…

Princess Lia continued, “However, this matter cannot be rushed. As time goes by, the power of the curse will only increase. You have to wait.”

“But I can’t wait.” Edison sighed, “Ziana is going back to Japera City tonight, and I don’t want her to. go back.”

“Then you should find a way to make her stay. Although the power of the current curse is not strong, she will still be affected if she is put a curse.” Princess Lia suggested.

Edison put his hands on the steering wheel, thoughtful.

It was already past four o’clock in the afternoon when the two returned to the Western Royalty.

Edison sent Princess Lia back to her residence, and the maid told Princess Lia, “His Majesty sent someone to invite you to have afternoon tea with him.”

“Edison, go back.” Princess Lia blinked at Edison, and then said to the maid, “Wait for me to change my clothes.”

Edison turned around and walked out. Not long after, the phone rang suddenly,

He glanced at the incoming call and frowned fiercely, but then he thought of something, took a deep breath and pressed the answer button.

“Edison!” Winifred on the other end of the phone cried, “Why? Why don’t you want me!? I was framed! That’s not my intention! I don’t want to cancel the engagement! I don’t want it!”

“Winifred, please don’t cry, let’s talk about what you have to say.”

“Woo, why didn’t you come to see me! Why! Did you despise me!” Winifred cried heartbreakingly, “Okay! You won’t come to see me, right? Then I’ll die! I’m now Just die!”

There was deep disgust in Edison’s eyes, but he said, “No, Winifred! Don’t do stupid things! I’m just busy today, so I haven’t had time to see you yet.”

“Excuse!” Winifred sobbed, “You just think I’m not the girl you like anymore!”

“No, I haven’t.” Edison coaxed her pretendingly, “Don’t think about it, I’m done with my work now,

so I’ll go see you.”

Winifred’s crying stopped abruptly, her voice trembling, and she asked suspiciously, “Really?”

“Really. I’m going to see you now.”

Winifred confirmed, “I want to see you within half an hour.”

“Good.”

Edison hung up the phone and went to find Winifred, and within twenty minutes, he appeared in

Winifred’s room.

“Edison.” Winifred couldn’t believe it. She jumped off the bed and ran barefoot to stand in front of him, “Edison!”

As she said that, she was about to rush towards him.

Edison pressed her shoulder, “It’s cold on the ground, why don’t you wear shoes?”

Sensitive Winifred’s smile instantly froze on her face, she lowered her face and asked gloomily, “Why don’t you let me hug you? I’m your fiancée, why don’t you let me hug you? You said you dislike me, you actually still think I am dirty, don’t you?”

Edison corrected her, “You are no longer my fiancée, the engagement is cancelled.”

“I don’t agree!” Winifred screamed suddenly, “I don’t agree to cancel! You can’t cancel! Do you think I’m dirty? I’m not dirty. If you don’t believe, you are ok to check it. I’ll let you check it now, okay?”

As she spoke, she began to undress.

Edison frowned, and said in disgust, “Enough!”

Winifred ignored her and was still undressing.

He pressed her hand and said coldly, “How long are you going to be crazy? Even if you take off your clothes, the engagement has been voided!”

“Did you ask your father to cancel the engagement! Did you want to cancel the engagement a long time ago!” Winifred was thinking wildly all day, and she suddenly became emotional when she thought of the scene the night before yesterday,” I know, you like Ziana! You must be very happy to cancel the engagement! Do you want to be with her!”

“Winifred! Who I’m with has nothing to do with you!” Edison scolded.

“I knew you wanted to be with her!” Winifred threw him off, rushed to the table, picked up a fruit. knife, screamed out of control, and stabbed at him, “I won’t let you be with her together! I will not fulfill you!”

With Edison’s skill, he could dodge completely, but his eyes were dim, instead of dodging, he went up to meet her.

Chapter 462 Swear to Love You Forever

“Huh.”

The fruit knife pierced his chest, and a lot of blood flowed out instantly, even the clothes he was wearing were soaked through.

Seeing the bright red blood, Winifred stared at Edison in disbelief, and then suddenly realized what she had done.

“Ah!”

She screamed and let go of her hand, covered her mouth and backed away again and again, “No, Edison, I didn’t do it on purpose!”

“Ahem!” Edison just moved his lips before spitting out a mouthful of blood.

“Ah!” Winifred was really frightened this time, and shouted to the outside, “Come on! Help!”

Seeing this, the bodyguards who rushed in were all stunned, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Just when the Duke Bourne came to see his daughter, he entered the room and saw Edison lying in a

pool of blood, and immediately flew into a rage.

He growled at Winifred, “You! What have you done!”

Winifred was terrified, covered her face and shook her head desperately, “I didn’t mean it! I didn’t mean it! Dad, I didn’t expect him to die!”

Duke Bourne was going to be pissed off by her!

Misfortune never comes alone. The marriage contract had just come to an end, and now she stabbed Edison again!

Edison was the prince of Western Royalty!

“Pa!” Duke Bourne slapped her hard. Winifred was stupefied, she burst into tears, and was scolded the next second.

“Don’t cry!” Duke Bourne stared at her fiercely, Winifred was dumbfounded, and her crying turned into a soft whimper, “Dad.”

Duke Bourne didn’t bother to pay attention to her now, and hurriedly ordered the bodyguards, “Take Prince Edison to the hospital!”

A group of bodyguards woke up like a dream, and everyone knew that if Edison died here, they would all be in bad luck!

In panic, everyone hurriedly carried Edison away.

Before the Duke Bourne left, he still couldn’t let go of his anger. When he saw his daughter who always caused him trouble, he was so angry that he raised his hand and wanted to slap him again.

Winifred burst into tears, shaking violently from fear, and said incoherently, “Dad, Dad, what should I do? Woooooo, what should I do!”

Duke Bourne gritted his teeth, kicked hard, and walked away.

When he arrived at the hospital, Edison had already been pushed into the emergency room.

Duke Bourne looked at the red light that was on, worried and scared.

The bodyguard asked cautiously, “Duke, do you want to tell Princess Lia about this?”

Princess Lia had only one son like Edison, and Edison was stabbed, even if he wanted to hide it, couldn’t hide it.

Duke Bourne nodded helplessly, “Go and inform.”

Half an hour later, Princess Lia rushed over with a panicked expression.

Duke Bourne hurried up to meet him, “Princess Lia!”

“Pa!” Imperial Princess Lia slapped him, “If Edison is not able to recover today, I won’t let you go!”

She was in a fit of anger now, and Duke Bourne knew that it was useless to say anything, so he could only bow and bow and apologize.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long for the lights in the emergency room to go out.

Edison was pushed out, and the doctor told them very gratefully, “He is fine now, he needs to stay in the hospital for a few days to recuperate and observe.” novelbin

After Princess Lia sent him to the ward, she thought for a moment and made a call.

At this time, inside the guest house.

Ziana leaned against the kitchen door frame, looked at the busy Boris, frowned, and looked. doubtful, “Why don’t we just forget about it?”

“You don’t believe me?” Boris put the noodles into the boiling water, “I really haven’t cooked much, but I can still cook noodles.”

“Really?” The corners of Ziana’s mouth twitched slightly, “I see your posture. It doesn’t look like you can cook.”

Boris stared at her, and snorted disdainfully, “Is it difficult to cook noodles? Nothing in this world is difficult for me, wife, don’t underestimate me!”

“Okay, okay. How could I underestimate you, my husband is good at everything, he is so handsome!”

The two had just reconciled, and he was willing to be courteous, but Ziana would not dampen his enthusiasm.

She walked over and hugged his waist, and rubbed her small face, “Then I’ll wait for my husband’s love fried noodles. By the way, have you ever done it before?”

“No, it’s my first time.” Boris replied, tilting his head and winking at her, his sexy voice was a bit seductive, “The first time, it’s all dedicated to you, wife, You can’t let me down.”

“Well” Ziana curled her lips into a smile, like a slutty playboy.

She raised his chin with her fingers, and her tone sounded like a big scumbag, “Be good, you are the one I love the most.”

“Hmph!” Boris was dissatisfied, “My wife only said she loves me the most, but she didn’t say she only loves me.”

Before Ziana could speak, he sighed again, “That’s right, you still have the rebound fellow group with hundreds of people, I’m not young anymore, how can I compare to those goblins in the group, wait a few more years, You see me tired of watching, you think I am old, you will probably abandon me.”

Ziana didn’t know what he was thinking, she thought he was childish and cute.

Like a fool, she hooked his neck and pressed down, and kissed him on tiptoe.

Boris seized the opportunity and deepened the kiss.

When she let go again, the lips of the two were still close at hand.

She touched his lips and coaxed him to say, “I love you the most, only you.”

Unexpectedly, Boris was still dissatisfied, and pretended to snort again, “You didn’t say you love me forever, only me! Also, what a woman says when she is in love only works when she is in love. People’s hearts are easy to change, who can guarantee that I will only love one person in this life! Hey!”

Ziana couldn’t help laughing.

The dog man really took great pains to get her to disband the rebound fellow group.

She blocked his lips, and when he looked at him with deep and dark eyes, she made a solemn promise, “I swear, I will always love you the most, and only you. If one day I don’t love you anymore, it must not be I.”

Boris’ deliberately slumped face revealed a smile, “What do the rebound fellow group say?”

“Disband immediately.” Ziana said flatteringly.

His expression became smug, and the corners of his raised eyes and brows were filled with sweetness, “Okay, then I swear too.”

Ziana looked at him, her eyes became wet at some point.

Boris touched her small face, “I swear that I will only love you forever, if I don’t love you anymore, I will kill myself.”

Ziana pursed her mouth, her voice choked up, “You are not allowed to swear in the future, it’s bloody and scary… Oh! Your noodles!”

“Oops!”

When Boris fished out the noodles, they were all boiled into a paste. Seeing this, Ziana laughed out of joy.

“Bite you again with a smile.” Boris warned her, “It’s all your fault, beauty is a disaster, and beauty hurts others!”

Ziana smiled and rolled her eyes, “Okay, I’m actually not hungry. I’d better cook this fried noodles for me when you return to Japera City.”

Boris glanced at the clock on the wall, it was six o’clock, and she had to leave for the airport.

Just as she thought about it, the door rang.

Chapter 463 I Want to Kill Edison

Ziana hurriedly let go of him, and helped him wipe off the lipstick marks on his mouth with her. small hands, “It should be Yudel.”

Boris went back to open the door, and there was indeed Yudel outside the door.

Yudel nodded at him, and said from a distance, “Let’s go, let’s go to the airport.”

“Good.”

Boris went down to the basement first, sat in his car and waited.

Not long after, Yudel and Ziana came over.

They boarded a luxurious Bentley, and then the car started slowly and headed to the airport.

Nell started the car and followed.

Boris took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Ziana.

[L: Wife, I am behind you.]

[Queen Ziana: I saw it, didn’t you say you don’t need to give it away? I’m with Yudel, there will be no danger.]

[L: I don’t want you to leave.]

[Queen Ziana: Then you go back to Japera City as soon as possible.)

[L: Okay, after you go back, you will touch wherever you want.]

After Boris sent this WhatsApp message, he could almost imagine the shy look of the little woman who was blushing and pretending to be angry when she saw it.

He raised his eyebrows, with an expression of indescribable comfort and satisfaction.

Nell hadn’t seen him so happy for a long time, and said with a smile, “Mr. Lewis, congratulations on your reunion with your wife!”

“Go back and give you a raise!”

Nell never expected that the tyrant would give him such a big reward for a casual flattery.

Really.

When the tyrant was in a good mood, his life was also comfortable!

If you wanted the tyrant to be in a good mood, you had to treat his wife well!

Nell immediately felt that his future was bright!

He smiled and thanked, “Okay Mr. Lewis. Thank you! But when shall we go back?” novelbin

“Finish the matter.” Boris thought of the business, “When will the maid who kidnapped Winifred be brought to me?”

“I’ve already asked Princess Catherine to clear up the relationship. It should be in these two days.”

“Where’s that Pablo that I asked you to investigate?” A cold light flashed in Boris’ eyes, “What’s his history?”

Davidson Construction under the name of Pablo Davidson had supported Edison five years ago, and was the first large enterprise to support Edison outside of Scott family.

This support was up to now.

Catherine once went to buy the talents, promising attractive and considerable benefits, but all of them were rejected by the other party.

This made people have to wonder whether the boss of Davidson Construction had some kind of relationship with Edison that went beyond interests.

Boris sent Biber to Galia to investigate Mr. Collins, and the result of the investigation was that Mr.

Collins was dead.

He could only try to find clues from Edison, assuming that Edison and Mr. Collins were in the same group, then he would definitely be able to find their connection.

The Davidson Construction was the biggest gain from this trip to the Wesbruck.

Nell replied while driving, “Pablo Davidson’s background is very clean, there is no abnormality in the information, and his company’s business and production are also regular. Anyway, everything that can be found on the surface is no problem. If you are to continue to investigate, we can only inquire from the inside, but it will take some time.”

Boris closed his eyes, “You should investigate this matter.”

“Yes.”

After talking about business, Boris returned to check his phone, but the little girl hadn’t replied yet.

He smiled casually, and sent another WhatsApp message.

At this time, Ziana was answering the phone.

The call was from Jackson, who claimed to be Edison’s friend.

Ziana frowned, “What are you calling me for?”

“Edison was injured, and he might die. He is currently being rescued in the emergency room! Miss

Scott, come and see him!”

“What?” Ziana’s heart suddenly tightened, and she shivered in pain.

Yudel sat side by side in the back seat with her, and asked worriedly upon seeing this, “Ziana, what’s wrong with you?”

Ziana covered her heart with one hand, and asked Jackson on the other end of the phone, “When did it happen?”

“Just now! Miss Scott, you know Edison’s feelings for you. If he really can’t survive this time, this will be his last ride. Come back and see him!”

Ziana’s heartache became even worse, she felt a twitching soreness, and her mind went blank due to the pain.

She had an intuition that she shouldn’t go back, but her words turned into, “Got it, send me the address of the hospital.”

After hanging up the phone, Yudel noticed that her face turned pale instantly, and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong?”

“My heart hurts.” Ziana said to him, “Yudel, turn around, we won’t be going back to Japera City.”

“Why? What happened?” Yudel became nervous, “Is your heart hurting so much? When did you feel uncomfortable?”

Ziana shook her head, “Go to the hospital. Edison is in the emergency room for rescue, I have to go back.”

Yudel was slightly startled, “What happened to Edison? Why was he rescued?”

Ziana still shook her head, but her expression looked worried, “Go back and have a look. Yudel, go back! I will regret it if I don’t go back.”

“Is he dying?” Yudel stared at her and asked solemnly.

Ziana grabbed her painful heart and nodded in despair, “I don’t know… maybe, I heard it’s very serious.”

Yudel was silent for a moment, “Turn around and go to the hospital.”

The luxurious Bentley turned around in front, and Nell, who was following behind, saw it all at once.

He asked suspiciously, “Mr. Lewis, why did the car turn around suddenly? Isn’t it going to the airport?”

Boris told him to follow him every step of the way, and quickly dialed Ziana’s number.

The call was quickly connected, but Ziana’s tone sounded weak.

Boris asked sensitively, “What’s the matter?”

“My heart hurt just now, but it’s much better now, it’s just a little…”

“What?” Boris’ voice slowed down, “I see your car turned around, where are you going?”

Ziana told the truth, “I am going to the hospital, Edison was being rescued and said that it might be the last time I can see him. I don’t know what happened, but I feel that I should go and see him.”

On the back of Boris’ hand holding the phone, there were bulging veins.

His eyes turned cold in an instant, and the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped by more. than ten degrees. But the tone of his words to Ziana was still very gentle, making it impossible to hear his emotions at the moment, “Since this is the last time, go if you want. By the way, why does. your heart suddenly hurt?”

“I heard the news just now, and I might have been stimulated.” Ziana was absent-minded, her tone a little fluttering,” I’m very worried.”

Boris snorted almost inaudibly, “Don’t worry, there will be no accidents, he will be fine.”

After hanging up the phone, Boris remained silent.

Nell glanced in the rearview mirror, suddenly frightened by his dark and cold expression.

“Mr. Lewis?” He asked anxiously, “What’s wrong?”

Boris looked at the phone fixedly, and after an unknown amount of time, he suddenly said gloomily, “I want to kill Edison.”

Chapter 464 Impatient Edison

Nell was startled, his hands were unsteady, and the car bumped.

Boris frowned unhappily, “Can’t drive anymore?”

“No…” Nell quickly adjusted his mood, and carefully suggested, “Mr. Lewis, it’s best to keep Edison now.”

Boris didn’t speak, but pursed his lips tightly.

Nell’s expression also became extremely serious, “According to the information we have now, Edison may be related to the kidnapping case five years ago, or it may be related to Mr. Collins. Once he dies, the clues will be broken. If you don’t find him, he may hurt Madam again.”

“I know!” Boris roared, and punched the car seat.

Of course, he knew that Edison’s death meant that all their recent efforts were useless!.

Facing his anger, Nell said again, “Mr. Lewis, you don’t want anything to happen to Madam either.”

“Drive your car.” Boris withdrew his hand, pinched his eyebrows irritably, “What you’re talking about is nonsense.”

Isn’t everything he did this year to ensure Ziana’s safety?

Nell smiled shyly, changed the subject and asked, “Then shall we continue to follow Madam?”

“What do you say?”

Boris leaned on the chair with a deep expression, not knowing what he was thinking.

More than half an hour later, the car arrived at the gate of the hospital.

Boris didn’t get out of the car, but looked at Yudel and Ziana from a distance, “Ask someone to check what’s going on with Edison.”

He finished speaking and took out a cigarette and lit it.

Amidst the smog, Ziana and Yudel entered the hospital, and their figures disappeared.

It was already dark at that time, but the hospital was still bustling with people coming and going.

Ziana walked in a hurry and her expression was in a daze. For some reason, she almost bumped into people several times.

Yudel simply hugged her halfway, turned his head to look at her side face and couldn’t help frowning.

He felt that it was unusual for Ziana to be a little concerned about Edison today.

On second thought, maybe it was because Edison’s life was hanging by a thread that something was Wrong with her.

“Don’t worry, we’ll be there soon.” He comforted her with a gentle voice.

At this moment, someone suddenly called them!

“Miss Scott, Mr. Scott!” Jackson trotted forward, “I’ll take you to see Edison.”

Ziana hurriedly asked, “How is he? Is he still in the emergency room?”

“I don’t know, when I came down to pick you up, I was still in the emergency room.” Jackson said without changing his expression.

Ziana clenched her fists on her heart and urged anxiously, “Take me there quickly.”

“How did Prince Edison get such a serious injury?” Yudel asked as he walked.

With a sullen face, Jackson said indignantly, “Winifred stabbed him!”

Yudel raised his eyebrows. Although Jackson didn’t say anything else, he had already guessed about the same.

The three of them quickly came to the emergency room upstairs, but the lights in the emergency room had already gone out.

After Jackson inquired with the nurse, he led them to a ward.

In the ward, Edison was lying on the bed, wearing a hospital gown, his face was pale, his brows were still tightly wrinkled when his eyes were closed, and he looked very haggard.

“Miss Scott, Mr. Scott?” Princess Lia got up and said in surprise, “You guys didn’t leave? I heard it’s the plane tonight…”

Yudel replied politely, “I heard that something happened to Prince Edison, so I came here to take at look. How is he?”

“The doctor said that he was out of danger for the time being. He just woke up for a while, and now he fell asleep again.” Princess Lia said, her voice choked up, “It may be painful, the incision is as deep as a finger, if the knife is a little more sideways, my son will just. Woo.”

“Mom,” Edison, who was lying on the bed, suddenly said in a low voice, “Am I all right?”

“Edison, are you awake?” Princess Lia hurried to the bed, “You haven’t slept for long!”

Edison laughed, “I was woken up by your crying.”

Princess Lia snorted, “By the way, Miss Scott is here to see you.”

“Who?” Edison’s listless eyes lit up instantly. He looked around the room, and when he saw Ziana,

the corners of his lips twitched, and he said in disbelief, “Ziana?”

Princess Lia quickly moved away from her blocked vision, and said to Ziana, “Miss Scott, come and sit at the front.”

Ziana put her hand on her heart, but it didn’t hurt much, and her chaotic head became a little clearer because of it.

Suddenly hearing her name being called, she raised her head, met a few pairs of eyes, nodded, and sat down on the edge of the bed.

Edison was very excited, “Ziana, aren’t you on the plane tonight?

“I heard that you were seriously injured, and you were being rescued. So, you came back.” Ziana’s voice slowed down, “How do you feel?”

Edison smiled weakly, “I’ll feel better if you come to see me.”

Ziana frowned, what he said was a bit ambiguous, which made her uncomfortable.

Seeing that she didn’t reply, Edison’s expression changed, so he hurriedly said, “Sorry for delaying your schedule, I’m very satisfied if you come to see me, it’s getting late now, you’d better go back and rest early.”

“Okay.” Ziana didn’t say much, and got up to say goodbye, “Then I’ll go first.”

She was quite clear-headed, and felt that what happened today was a bit strange, as if there was something weird everywhere.

After sending Ziana and Yudel away, Jackson returned to the ward.

Edison sat up and asked, “Did they leave the hospital?”

“Well. I saw it with my own eyes.”

Edison sent him off, “Okay, you can go back and rest, too.”

“Edison, don’t you need anyone here? How about I stay with you.” Jackson said worriedly.

Edison shook his head at him, reassuring him, “I’ve found a nurse, go back and rest.”

Jackson noticed that Princess Lia hadn’t left either, she was hesitant to speak, and turned around wisely to leave, “Okay, I’ll come see you tomorrow.”

As soon as Jackson left, Edison couldn’t wait to say, “Did the curse work?”

“En.” Princess Lia looked at him a little dissatisfied, “You are a little too impatient, Nia said that she will slowly fall in love with you as time goes by. But now, she has been left behind, she is willing. to stay, which means it worked.”

Edison nodded.

He was very much looking forward to that day!

When Ziana got out of the hospital and got into the car, she was still a little restless.

Yudel asked her, “What are you thinking?”

Ziana shook her head.

At this moment, the phone rang, and she looked down, it was Boris calling.

With a smile on her face, Ziana connected the phone.

Chapter 465 I Am Taking Zlana Away

“Why did you come out of the hospital so soon?” Boris said flatly, and then tutted, “It shouldn’t be.”

Ziana didn’t understand and asked puzzled, “Why shouldn’t it be?”

“It shouldn’t be so fast. Seeing how anxious and caring you were just now, I thought you would wait until he recovered before coming out.” Boris taunted enigmatically, “Why not two or three months? How would you feel at ease before he recovered?”

Ziana was finally aware of his subtle jealousy.

She groaned, “Why are your eyes turning green? Green as grass!”

“Ziana.” Teased by her, Boris called her by her name coldly, “Be serious, you are in class!”

Ziana stuck out her tongue, “Okay, Mr. Lewis, continue please.”

“Ziana, do you see why it is wrong?”

“I am wrong as long as you believe I am.” Ziana is ready to admit her mistakes, “I will correct them all, I will.”

“Okay, you said it.” Boris snorted and ordered, “Ask your person to pull over.”

On their way driving back to the hotel from the hospital, they saw Wesbruck full of traffic and bustling at night.

Looking at the flickering lights, she told Donald, “Pull over.”

Hearing part of the conversation, Yudel raised his eyebrows and looked back.

Sure enough, Boris got off the luxurious Rolls-Royce behind him.

The man’s figure is superior and straight, and his long and straight legs are particularly eye-catching in the light and shadow.

He came to the car quickly.

“Knock knock.”

The car window was knocked suddenly.

Ziana rolled down the car window, and was pleasantly surprised to see Boris suddenly appearing.

She looked at him with a smile, full of tenderness in her eyes.

Boris was very angry at first, but when he saw her smiling face, he couldn’t say anything harsh to her.

He raised his chin and snorted softly, “Open the car door.”

“Do you want to have a ride together?” After saying this, Ziana opened the door and said to Yudel,

“Yudel, go to the co-pilot.”

Yudel sighed and said, “A grown girl like her won’t stay with us forever. It turns out that her brother is not as important as husband now.”

“Yudel!” Ziana glared at him. “Shut your mouth!”

In the next second, her wrist was suddenly grasped.

Boris smiled casually. “Just sit here, Yudel. I am taking Ziana away.”

He pulled her out of the car, closed the door casually, and stuffed her into his Rolls-Royce.

“Nell, put down the baffle.”

After Boris sat in, the first sentence was such an order.

Hearing his tone, Nell Taylorr didn’t dare to delay, and quickly put down the fender, like an old monk in meditation, continuing to drive attentively.

As soon as the fender is released, the back of the car instantly becomes a private space.

Boris held Ziana onto his lap, and she hugged his neck, staring into his eyes.

“Why?” Boris looked down at her, “Why staring at me, puppy?”

“To check whether your eyes turn greener” Ziana smiled but took the initiative to explain to him, “Don’t be jealous. Jackson said on the phone that he was seriously injured and might die. I thought at the time, It was thanks to him that we were able to escape from that island five years ago, if he is really going to die, it would be our utmost benevolence to see him off to the other world, right?”

“He saved us. The Scott family has helped him a lot over the past five years. You have done enough benevolence and righteousness.” Boris said angrily, “The Scott family’s money and contacts have been returned to him for saving our lives. I think you have him in your heart. That’s why you were so nervous when you heard that he was injured!”

“Oh, you’re still jealous!” Ziana pinched his face and said solemnly, “I only have you in my heart. Going back to see him would be another reason for me to stay in Wesbruck to accompany you? Actually, I want to stay here and wait for you to go back to Japera City together.”

“Don’t be angry.” She leaned slightly and blew in his ear, “Ok? Honey.”

The little woman in his arms spoke softly, her body, waist and hands were very soft with fragrance.

Boris was distracted, grabbing her hand and putting it on his lips and kissed it, “I’m not angry, I’m. just jealous.’

“Don’t be jealous, I said you’re my one and only.”

Boris saw that she has given him an out, so he squeezed her chin and kissed her, “There is a way that can appease my jealousy.”

He looked at her with hanging eyes, and his eyes were meaningful. Ziana blinked. “What’s the condition? I promise you whatever you say.”

Chapter 466 The Code of Conduct on Womanhood

The innocent girl, at the mercy of others, spoke provocatively, and Boris was so frustrated that the car was going too slow he couldn’t take her down right away.

He played with her fingers absent-mindedly, and spoke to her slowly, “Since you want to stay with me, then you are not allowed to visit Edison in the hospital anymore. As you said just now, going to see him today is the best of humanity. Do you agree? Little fickle one.”

Ziana was outraged by the insult and, in a fit of rage, gave him a pinch on the waist.

Boris’ waist was the most sensitive, and when she made such a fuss, his breath instantly became heavy. novelbin

Ziana sensed something was wrong, and froze up, not daring to move.

Boris snorted softly, “Are you still messing around? If you dare to see Edison again, I’ll call you fickle one every day.”

“I promise you I won’t go to see him anymore.” Ziana raised her hand to promise.

Boris snorted arrogantly, “It’s not too bad.”

“Alright, Mr. Lewis, is class finally finished?” Ziana tilted her head playfully and winked at him. “If it’s over now, would you like to give me a kiss?”

“Don’t try to seduce me with beauty, it’s not over yet.” Boris poked her chin, “Be serious.”

“Okay, what else do you want to say?”

Boris raised his eyebrows, “For you, I can recite male virtues back and forth, and you have to abide by female virtues. Did you hear that?”

Ziana smiled, and obediently agreed, “I heard it very clearly. I will study it tomorrow.”

“No, I will do a spot check tomorrow, so you will study it in my room later.” Boris said in a serious manner, “Did you hear that, Lady Ziana?”

“Can I still focus on studying in your room?” Ziana murmured.

Boris kissed her, “My room will get you focused on anything.”

Because of Ziana, Boris decided not to stay in the guest house, but the room wasn’t refunded.

He also asked Nell to book a presidential suite, and after escorting Ziana into the room, before she say anything, he quickly shut the door behind her. could

He lowered his head to kiss her, and when Ziana was so kissed that she couldn’t breathe, she grabbed his collar tightly and asked pantingly, “Didn’t you say that I will study here? Do you still want me to study female virtues?”

“Isn’t this one of the female virtues?” Boris hugged her on the bed, “Making babies is the most. important virtue for both men and women.”

By the time the two of them finished, it was already late at night.

Ziana drifted off to sleep, and Boris leaned against the bed, tackling the backlog of business from the company.

Suddenly, the phone rang.

After he picked it up, the first thing he said was, “Keep down, madam is asleep.”

Nell gazed up at the sky, speechless, realizing that the two had made up.

“Speak.” Boris frowned, “What’s the matter?”

Nell endured the slander, and said softly, “Mr. Lewis, we’ve found a clue about the maid who drugged Winifred, and it’s related to Edison.”

Boris sneered, “Can you bring the maid out tomorrow?”

“I’ve already taken care of everything. I’ll bring her to see you at ten o’clock tomorrow morning.” Nell’s ability to handle affairs was simply impressive.

At least Boris was satisfied with this answer.

the next day.

Ziana was terribly disturbed, and when she opened her eyes, it was already past eight o’clock.

She lounged on the bed, swiveled her head, and spotted Boris, then languidly melted into his embrace.

Boris pleaded, his long arms wrapped around her body, “Please, let me go. I’ve given you all I have.”

“What?” How could Ziana understand his nasty words, “What did you give me?”

Boris met her innocent and pure gaze, smiled and shook his head, “I’m going out later, you have to be good.”

He pulled out a black card and handed it to her, saying, “If you’re feeling bored, you can use this money to do whatever you want, just don’t go see Edison.”

Ziana scratched his chin. The man had slept all night, and the green stubble that appeared was still a little prickly to the touch.

She snorted, “I won’t go see him, don’t worry.”

“Good girl.”

Ziana asked, “What are you going to do later? Is Western Royalty going to apologize to you?”

Boris shook his head, “I’m going to see someone, and I’ll tell you the details when I get back. Alright, it’s almost time, I’ll get up and clean up.”

Ziana embraced him tightly and wouldn’t let go, he was completely smitten and lovingly kissed her before she finally released him.

When Boris emerged from the bathroom after tidying up, he noticed Ziana with her hand on her forehead, looking pale.

“What’s wrong?” he asked nervously.

Ziana said weakly, “Headache, groggy…”

“Did you not sleep well?” Boris touched her and found that she didn’t have a fever, and then said to her, “Go to sleep for a while.”

Ziana nodded and let him go to work first, but Boris insisted on waiting for her to fall asleep.

She thought she had a headache and it was difficult to fall asleep, but she fell asleep not long after lying down.

Seeing that she was asleep, Boris walked out of the room lightly.

Nell was already waiting outside, “Mr. Lewis, I’ll take you to see that maid.”

Chapter 467 Stripping Him of Everything

“Is there anyone? Is there anyone? Come on!”

“Wooooow, I really don’t know anything! Let me go! What are you arresting me for!”

“Help! Has anyone heard me?”

The maid was hoarse from shouting, and the door of the private room was still closed.

Someone informed her yesterday that someone would guarantee to bring her out today.

She thought it was Prince Edison who came to save her, so she kept silently waiting.

Sure enough, a group of bodyguards dressed in black came, and after completing the formalities, they took her into the car.

She guessed that Prince Edison wanted to release her on bail, which was promised to her before!

Who knew that when the car stopped, the group of tall and mighty bodyguards brought her into this private room!

They forced her down on a chair, tied her hands and feet with ropes, closed the door, and left!

She couldn’t understand why Prince Edison treated her like this!

She clearly followed his instructions and didn’t tell on him!

Was he trying to kill her?

Thinking of this, the maid was terrified, and tried to yell for help, but she had no strength, and no one noticed her.

“Help…”

At this moment, the heavy private room door was pushed open from the outside.

The maid looked over in surprise. The visitor was tall and slender, with an indescribable arrogance surrounding him.

The private room was dim, and the other party was against the light, so she couldn’t see clearly, not – even the outline.

But it was clear he wasn’t Prince Edison for sure.

This person was actually taller than Prince Edison!

In her impression, among the people she had met, no one seemed to be so tall and straight!

“You…” She asked the strange man with a hoarse voice, tremblingly, “You who are you! Why did you ask someone to kidnap me? You are breaking the law…you…let me go!”

The man snorted coldly and raised his right hand.

The people behind him understood and pressed the switch.

“Click!”

In the originally dark room, all the lights were turned on instantly, and the strong white light rushed down, shaking the maid to close her eyes subconsciously.

Graceful footsteps echoed in her ears, drawing nearer and nearer until finally the man halted right before her, leaving the maid’s heart suspended in fear.

She opened her eyes in great despair, and slowly raised her head to look up.

Suddenly!

She met a pair of sharp and indifferent eyes!

“Oh no!” she exclaimed in shock, “It’s you!”

Boris had an outstanding appearance, and he was the focus of attention everywhere. No matter who looked at these eyes, they would never forget him.

But he was a bit different now than he was at the engagement party before.

His eyes were calm and arrogant, like a falcon, giving people a great sense of oppression.

His aura was even colder. The moment she saw him, she forgot to even breathe!

At this time, the bodyguard brought a chair, and Boris sat on it, crossing his legs.

“Nell,” he said.

Nell stepped forward and approached the maid, her expression stern. “Who told you to drug Winifred and trap Mr. Lewis and her in that room?”

The maid’s eyes widened in surprise and she quickly shook her head, “No one told me to do this! I made it clear before that I don’t like Winifred. She never lends me any money, so I just want to get back at her!”

Nell didn’t talk nonsense to her, he had plenty of means to deal with such stubborn people.

He snapped his fingers, and the two bodyguards walked out of the private room.

The maid looked at them puzzled, unable to figure out what the other party was going to do.

Her eyes fell on Boris again.

The man was wearing an ironed suit, sitting calmly and gracefully, like a supreme king!

He was not stupid?

If not stupid, why did he pretend to be stupid?

While the maid was thinking, the door was pushed open again. It was the two bodyguards who had left before, but they brought back two more people!

The maid suddenly yelled, “Dad! Mom!”

She glared at Boris, fuming, “What do you think you’re doing?! Why did you take my parents into custody?!”

No one paid any attention to her inquiry, and the bodyguards pressed the couple to the ground with their hands and feet spread apart.

“Stop! Stop it!” The maid sensed something was wrong.

In the blink of an eye, she spotted bodyguards armed with wooden sticks, standing at attention on either side, like they were just waiting for the command.

“What are you guys going to do! Aren’t you afraid that things will be exposed? This is Wesbruck!”

“Is it your place to question here?” Compared to her anger, Nell was extraordinarily calm.

He folded his arms around his chest and said lightly, “Our Mr. Lewis doesn’t like to listen to nonsense, so you should think about the next sentence before answering. If the answer satisfies our Mr. Lewis, we will break one of your father’s legs. If he is not satisfied, more will be broken.”

“We can take time to play, but I don’t know how many legs and hands your parents have for the punishment.”

The maid couldn’t get up, her head was buzzing, “You…you…”

Nell nodded.

The bodyguard went down with a stick, and there were screams and heart-piercing cries in the room.

The maid froze in place, twitching in fright. When the bodyguard raised the wooden stick again, she hurriedly said, “I say! I’ll say everything! Prince Edison ordered me to do this! He gave me the money, he asked me to do that!”

“He was the one who asked me to drug Winifred, and he was the one who asked me to bring Mr. Lewis there. I don’t know anything else, please let me go!”

After she finished speaking, she began to sob, and seeing that Boris had been silent for a long time, she couldn’t help crying and begging repeatedly.

“Take everyone out.” Nell caught a glimpse of Boris’ disgusted expression, knew that he was disturbed, and hurriedly called the bodyguards to get them away.

After everyone cleared out, he took the camera from the side and performed a lot of operations.

Two minutes later.

Boris’ mobile phone received a video.

Nell said respectfully, “Mr. Lewis, everything the maid said just now has been recorded.”

Boris clicked on the video and watched it again, with a secretive expression on his face.

He didn’t speak, the atmosphere in the room was frighteningly cold.

Nell asked in a low voice, “Mr. Lewis, what should we do with Edison?”

“I haven’t attacked him yet, but he sent someone to deal with me first.” Boris laughed lightly, “He wants to rob me of my person, so I will strip him of everything.”

Nell was not surprised, but he was worried, “Mr. Lewis, should we be shielding Madam from

Edison when we deal with hi

Boris was sure that Ziana had no feelings for Edison, but her subconscious reaction yesterday made him confused again.

He pondered for a moment, then shook his head, “Go back tonight, and I will tell her what Edison did.”

Regarding what happened five years ago, although there was still not enough evidence to prove that

Edison was involved…

But the evidence that Winifred and he were set up by him was rock solid.

He confessed to her, keeping his word not to conceal it from her, but also with a selfish motive to gauge her real feelings about Edison.

However, when he returned to the presidential suite, he found that Ziana was not here.

Chapter 468 Ziana Noticed Something Was Wrong

Boris called the bodyguard at the door in and asked, “What time did Madam leave?”

The bodyguard told the truth, “She went out around noon, saying she was going shopping.”

“Are our people following?”

“Followed up.”

Boris’ frown was relieved a little.

After all, it was on the Wesbruck territory, so it was better to be careful in everything.

After sending out the bodyguards, Boris left the suite again.

As he walked out, he called Ziana.

“Buzz.”

The sound of the phone vibrating suddenly rang in the quiet ward.

Edison straightened up and took a look, and when he noticed the caller ID on it, jealousy flashed in his eyes.

Ziana’s note to Boris was actually her husband!

He clenched his fists tightly, looked in the direction of the bathroom, his eyes were dark, his face was expressionless, but his tone was as gentle as ever, “Ziana, your phone is ringing.”

Ziana happened to come out, and quickly approached, picked up the phone, checked the call, but didn’t answer it for a long time.

Edison asked nonchalantly, “Why didn’t you answer?”

“Sorry, I’m going out for a while.” Ziana walked out with her mobile phone, her gaze stayed on the screen. When she arrived outside the ward, she was about to answer the call, but unfortunately the other person hung up.

She stood and thought for a while, and decided to go into the room and say goodbye to Edison, and then call Boris back.

When Boris called her, he must have found that she was not in the hotel anymore.

In fact, she was indeed out for shopping today, and after a while, Edison called.

He said on the phone that he was going for an examination, asked her if she was free, and begged her to accompany him.

Ziana refused, and clearly rejected him.

Because she promised Boris that she would never see him again.

But Edison didn’t give up, and asked again and again.

Ziana listened and felt that his voice seemed to suck away her soul.

She herself didn’t know what was going on, and when she fully woke up, she was already standing in Edison’s ward.

It didn’t matter how she got here now, the important thing was that Boris was looking for her, and she had to go back.

She didn’t want to let him know about her coming to see Edison.

Firstly, she couldn’t explain it clearly, and secondly, she didn’t want to have any further conflicts with him.

After Ziana made up her mind, she walked into the ward again.

Seeing her coming in, Edison smiled and said to her, “Did you finish the phone call?”

“Yes.” Ziana twitched the corner of her mouth, “Since you have finished the examination, and I have been here for quite a while, I will leave if you are fine.”

Edison asked gently, “Would you mind staying for a bit? They’re not available today, and you’ve been such a great help. I haven’t even thanked you yet.

Ziana declined, “No, I really have something to do.”

“Ziana. If I let you go back hungry, I won’t be able to bear it on my conscience.” Edison sat on the bed, and looked at her quietly, “You can stay and have a meal with me. If you don’t eat, I can’t eat this meal either.”

“I do not want…”

“Stay here.” He looked at her, “Ziana, you want to stay.”

Ziana frowned, her mind went blank, and her thoughts seemed out of control.

In a daze, she heard her own voice reply, “Okay.”

Edison suppressed his joy and pretended to be surprised, “Ziana, if you agree, then I’ll ask someone to bring in the prepared meals. After you eat with me, I’ll ask someone to take you back home.”

Zlana felt like waking up from a dream, and when she heard his words, she stood there blankly.

The weird feeling of uncontrollable behavior and thoughts came again.

“Zlana, come and sit down.” Edison was calling her.

Ziana frowned, and moved over slowly.

Boris didn’t get through to Ziana’s call, and his expression was very ugly.

He directly asked for the contact information of the past bodyguards, and asked straight to the point about Ziana’s whereabouts.

The bodyguard said tremblingly, “Ma’am, she was shopping before, and then she answered a phone call, and then… she came to the hospital.”

Hearing this answer, Boris laughed out of anger.

He raised his eyebrows, “Went to see Edison?”

“The bodyguard bit the bullet and gritted his teeth, “Yes… yes.”

“Very good.” Boris finished with a smile, and cut off the phone.

Seeing that his face had turned gloomy in a short period of time, Nell asked anxiously, “Mr.

Lewis…”

Boris walked past him without saying a word.

Nell hurriedly followed, “Mr. Lewis!”

After an hour.

The car stopped at the hospital.

Nell noticed the seriousness of the situation while on the road. As soon as he saw this place, he made contact with the front and back, and almost instantly had a premonition that a fierce storm was coming!

It seemed that Mr. Lewis, who was in a fit of anger, would definitely rush in regardless.

Who knew that he led someone into the monitoring room.

“Turn on the monitor in Edison’s room.”

The security guard looked at the person who rushed in suspiciously, “Who are you? Get out!”

Before he finished speaking, Nell led people to squeeze in. The small monitoring room was quickly filled.

They didn’t speak, as they just stared at the security guard one by one.

The security guard turned around stiffly, and after some operations, he called up the surveillance camera in Edison’s room, and pushed him to Boris with trembling hands.

On the big screen, there was a harmonious and sweet scene.

Ziana and Edison were sitting face to face, eating.

Nell glanced at Boris quietly, let alone talking, he didn’t even dare to breathe.

Boris sneered, turned around and left.

Instead of going into the ward to arrest her, he went back downstairs to the car.

After waiting for another half an hour or so, he finally saw Ziana come out of it.

“Go and invite her up.”

It was obviously a very common sentence, but Nell heard a strong murderous intent from it.

After all, Ma’am… was cuckolding Mr. Lewis, right?

As soon as Ziana came out of the hospital, she took out her cell phone and prepared to call Boris.

Suddenly, several bodyguards came from all directions, and surrounded her without saying anything.

Ziana looked at the person vigilantly, ready to make a move.

At this moment, Nell hurriedly got out of the car, and trotted to Ziana, “Ma’am!”

Seeing that it was him, Ziana breathed a sigh of relief, but said in a bad tone, “Your people?”

“Yes.” Nell smiled flatteringly, “Well, Mr. Lewis is here to pick you up, and he’s waiting in the car.”

Ziana’s expression froze slightly.

Now that Boris was here, he must have known that she had come to see Edison.

But she really didn’t remember what happened, she seemed to have arrived at Edison’s ward out of no reason.

She felt that what happened in the past two days was too weird, maybe she should tell Boris.

Ziana nodded to Nell, “Lead the way.”

“Okay!” Nell smiled far-fetchedly.

He walked ahead and opened the door.

A slender man, sitting in the back seat, heard the movement, and looked at her with serious eyes.

That look was indifferent and mocking.

Ziana pursed her lips and sat in.

Nell smiled awkwardly, got into the driver’s seat, and took the initiative to put down the fender without even asking.

The car drove slowly, and the silence in the car was suffocating.

Ziana clenched her hands tightly, gently tugged at the corner of his clothes, and someone followed her, “Husband…”

“Is the food delicious?” Boris turned his face and asked calmly.

Chapter 469 Choose One Between Me and Him

Ziana shook her head immediately, “Of course it’s not delicious.”

Boris suddenly pinched her face and pulled her closer.

She was half laying on him and was forced to look up at him. The distance between them instantly.

Ziana whispered, “Honey…”

“You lied to me, and I feel even more angry.” His face was stern and indifferent. There was a hint of mockery in his brown eyes, “How could it be not delicious that you cheated on me and came to eat with your sweetheart?”

Ziana was deeply shocked by his harsh words.

She hurriedly corrected his statement, “I was not cheat on you.”

“Then why didn’t you answer the phone?” Boris sneered.

Ziana explained, “I was in the bathroom. When I was about to pick up, you hung up the phone.”

Boris’ thin lips moved slightly. He didn’t believe a word of her words, “You always have excuses.”

“It’s not an excuse! It’s the truth!” Ziana asked, “Don’t you believe me?”

Boris sneered coldly, “Before you ask me, ask yourself if it’s worth being trusted! Who promised me last night not to meet Edison alone? Ziana, have you forgotten what you said? How can you be so confident now?!”

After he finished speaking, he shook her off.

Ziana only felt that her face was burning hot.

She didn’t know if it was from being pinched by him, or from being stabbed by his words.

She had a lot to say, but her thoughts were too messy. She didn’t know where to start, so she could only say something without logic, “No, I didn’t forget what I said before… I didn’t want to come and see him today. I mean, it’s too weird!”

“I really didn’t want to come. But as soon as I heard his voice, I felt like my consciousness was lost. When I realized it, I had already arrived in the hospital!”

“That’s enough!” Boris interrupted her indifferently, “You want to tell me that you came to the hospital to see him just because you couldn’t control yourself?”

No!” Ziana’s eyes widened, “It’s not! I mean… I just can’t control myself at all… Mm…”

Before she finished speaking, Boris pinched her neck, pressing down on her body and kissing her madly.

He couldn’t take it anymore.

He was so angry.

No.

More jealousy than anger.

Just now Ziana actually said that when she heard Edison’s voice, she lost consciousness.

Boris thought, “If she can’t control herself, then who am I!”

He couldn’t accept that he was not the one and only to the woman he loved!

Boris was furious. He was taking off her clothes while kissing her rudely.

His kiss was like a gust of gale, trying to devour her into his body.

His hands were also full of wild anger. Wherever he touched, he could set off fire.

“Don’t…” Ziana sobbed softly, “Honey… Don’t do that…”

But her resistance was like a blow to Boris at this moment.

The more she struggled, the angrier he became, and the more consciousness he lost.

He aggressively opened her teeth and rushed in, and asked viciously and bastardly, “You don’t want me to do that, so you want Edison to do that? Do I kiss you comfortably, or him? What step has your relationship reached? If I don’t come to see you today, do you still want to sleep with him tonight?”

Each sentence was worse than the other.

Ziana knew he was angry, so she let him vent. But his sharp words were too much!

How could he humiliate her like this!

“Boris, you bastard!”

Her eyes were red with anger, and she slapped him with all her strength!

“Slap!”

Boris was slightly startled, and grabbed her wrist the next second.

Ziana wanted to shrink back, but he refused,

She bit her lips and stared at him, “Let me go!”

“You slapped me again because of him.” Boris curled his lips mockingly. Then he smiled indifferently, holding her hand tighter and tighter, “In that case, let’s make things clear today. I indir hate someone playing with my feelings.”

“Choose one between me and him. Ziana, think about it carefully, me, or him.”

“Let me go!” Ziana was dizzy and her heart ached.

She felt that her breathing became more and more short. She held her chest in one hand and begged in a low voice, “Boris, please let me Eo!”

“Choose one.” He was still persistent, “You can only choose one.”

“Let… let me go!”

“You have three seconds left.”

“I…” Ziana looked at the man in front of her, breathing rapidly with her mouth widely open, like a dying fish, “…”

Her face was pale and terrifying, her eyes were round, and her whole body was twitching suddenly.

Seeing this, Boris panicked, and he couldn’t care about anything else. He growled and ordered, “Nell! Go back to the hotel as soon as possible!”

He was terrified. Even though he held Ziana in his arms, he was still so afraid of the loss of life. novelbin

He worried that she won’t be able to open her eyes.

And he worried that she would just disappear in his world.

“No.” Boris’ voice trembled, begging in a low voice, “I was wrong… Ziana, don’t scare me.., don’t scare me baby…”

Nell had already contacted the doctor on the way.

Once coming back into the suite, the doctors swarmed in.

After the diagnosis, the doctors said that she had violent mood swings and was stimulated by something, so she could convulse and faint.

After hearing this, Yudel’s face was very ugly, and he asked Boris, “Stimulated by something? She was fine when she went out this morning, why did she become like this after she came back? What happened between you two?”

Boris couldn’t say anything.

He was very regretful now.

How could he say such exaggerated and bastard words to her!

She was the woman he wanted to take care of for the rest of his life with everything!

Boris rubbed his eyebrows, and sincerely apologized, “I said some stupid words… Yudel, it’s all my fault, I…”

“Boris.” Yudel sneered and said, “After married, have you forgotten the days of chasing her?”

“No, I just…”

Just jealous.

He resented her for forgetting the promise, and even more cared that the person who made her abandon her promise was Edison.

She clearly knew how much he guarded against Edison and how much he hated Edison.

But she kept it from him, went to see Edison, and had dinner with Edison!

What’s more, she even made up an excuse that Edison’s voice had magical powers, and she couldn’t control herself!

He loved her, but he was not a fool.

As long as she found a decent excuse, he won’t feel so wronged.

However, everything didn’t matter anymore.

He just wanted her to wake up and be fine.

Boris scratched his hair, “Sorry, Yudel. I will never make her angry again and let her get hurt.”

Yudel glanced at him, and said nothing about his promise.

About half an hour passed.

Ziana woke up leisurely.

Boris called her softly as if he was afraid of scaring her, “Ziana.”

Ziana frowned, she sat up, and felt her own pulse, “It’s weird. Why did I wake up with such a pain in my head after sleeping… But my pulse is still steady!”

As she was speaking, she saw Boris on the side. She noticed his slumped face, and asked suspiciously, “Could it be that you hit me secretly while I was asleep?”

“Let me rub your head for you.” Boris said, asking her to lean her head over.

Ziana smiled sweetly and said, “You are so kind, honey.”

She quickly rested her head on his lap, looking at him with her small face up.

Boris met her shiny brown eyes, and felt a burst of satisfaction in his heart. He thought what he wanted was this kind of her, healthy and happy. He was willing to give everything for her smile.

“Baby.” He compromised willingly, “I will never quarrel with you again. It is all my fault today. Could you please forgive me?”

Ziana was puzzled, “What happened today? Why can’t I remember anything?”


Chapter 470 Edison Was Not a Good Person.

Boris froze when he gave her the massage and looked down at her, “We quarreled today.”

“What did we argue about?” Ziana still looked surprised. It seemed that she was not pretending, “Why are you arguing with me?”

Boris thought she didn’t really forget.

After all, less than two hours had passed since the incident happened.

It was impossible for her to forget.

“Forget it. Quarrelling is not a good thing, so forget it.” Boris leaned over and kissed her, “You just need to know that no matter what the reason is, I won’t quarrel with you in the future.”

“Really?” Ziana stretched out her hand to scratch his chin, “Is my boyfriend so nice?”

“Do you want to stay with such a good boyfriend forever?” Boris tried to persuade her.

Ziana hugged his arm as if she had snatched a treasure, and replied loudly, “Yes!”

Boris was too fond of her little tricks.

As long as she was willing to coax him, he could ignore everything.

He lazily helped her rub her head, and his deep gaze fell on her face, “Baby.”

“Uh?”

Boris was a little nervous, but he had to say these words.

He pursed his lips, “I don’t like you having too much contact with Edison. Can you not go to see him in private in the future? I don’t mean to restrict your freedom and right to make friends, but I’m worried

that he will snatch you away.”

“And he is not as harmless as you see.”

Boris observed her expression, and seeing that there was nothing unusual, he continued, “I have a video here. After you watch it, you will know it.”

He took out his phone, found the maid’s video and handed it to Ziana.

Ziana took it suspiciously, looked at him, and then looked at the screen.

Boris clicked the play button for her.

In the video, the maid made it clear that Edison Instructed her to drug Winifred.

“Edison is not a good person.” Boris sald, “He and Winifred are playmates in childhood, but he can do such kind of thing to her. No matter what his purpose is, this person is very scary. Baby.

“I won’t hurt you. Stay with me forever and don’t see him, okay?”

Ziana’s head was in chaos.

She knew that Boris was right, and she should believe him.

But there seemed to be a different voice deep in her heart, which kept defending Edison.

“He did all this to get you!”

“He hurt others, but he was never willing to hurt you!”

“He is sincere to you, and you will be happy only when you are with him!”

Ziana felt her temples were painful.

She groaned in pain, buried her face in Boris’ lap, and said tremblingly, “I know.”

In order to prevent Ziana from seeing Edison, Boris stayed with her for the next two days.

He didn’t spy on her on purpose. He happened to have no other work in Wesbruck, so he stayed in the hotel with her.

The two reconciled. Their feelings were strong. Boris had no resistance to Ziana. Now that she was by his side, in the same room with him. How could he be willing to endure?

Two days, forty-eight hours. He wished he could waste every second on the bed with her.

Ziana was so exhausted by him that she didn’t even bother to pick up her phone when it rang.

She kicked him with her feet, “Who’s calling?”

Boris glanced at the incoming call, cut off the phone, picked her up, and kissed her with a bewitching voice, “Nobody.”

“Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is power off.

A mechanical and indifferent female voice came from the phone. Edison was furious.

He pinched the phone with a livid face.

It had been two days.

He hadn’t seen Ziana for two days!

Not only that, he couldn’t even contact her at all! novelbin

How could it be?

He couldn’t figure it out, worried that there might be a problem with the curse, so he called Nia anxiously.

Unexpectedly, just after the call was made, there was a sudden knock on the door of the ward.

Usually at this time, it was Jackson who came over.

Edison said flatly, “Come in.”

“Edison.” Unlike usual, the one who appeared at the door today was Winifred. She dressed up and was calling him with her bag in her hand. Seeing that he didn’t answer, she pursed her mouth. bitterly, and walked all the way to his bedside, “Edison… I’m sorry… Are… are you okay? I really didn’t mean it that day!”

Edison cut off the phone calmly, and said coldly, “Who told you to come? Get out of here!”

“Edison!” Winifred grabbed his sleeves and whimpered, “I really know I was wrong! I love you so much, how could I hurt you! I really didn’t mean it! I was just too impulsive… My dad has already. taught me a lesson, Edison, please don’t be angry with me!”

Edison was tired of her now, and just wanted to let her go as soon as possible.

His handsome face seemed to be covered with frost, “I can try to not be angry with you.”

“Really?” Winifred’s eyes lit up. She knew that Edison wouldn’t really embarrass her.

“Yes. But the condition is that you get out of here now.” Edison said viciously.

Winifred was stunned. It was the first time Edison spoke to her in such a bad manner.

“Edison…” She looked at him in disbelief, “You… you want me to get out of here?”

“How many times do I need to say? I don’t like you at all. I don’t have feelings for you. It makes me look down on you for being tenacious.” Edison’s face was expressionless, but his words became more and more cruel, “You hurt me once, and then you came to apologize. Your love is too terrible! I can’t bear it! Why don’t you get out of here?”

Winifred cried, “Edison…”

Just at this time, Jackson came.

Edison scolded, “Drag her out!”

Jackson was frightened and dared not refuse, dragging the screaming Winifred outside the ward.

Winifred struggled with hands and feet, “Jackson! Let me go! You… Slap!”

She slapped him hard, “Go away, I want to go in!”

“If you want Prince Edison to hate you more, just keep making trouble.” Jackson rubbed his face

and entered the room with a sneer.

Winifred sobbed, and just stood outside blankly, neither leaving nor going in.

Edison’s voice came from the ward soon.

She peeked through the crack of the door.

Edison sat on the bed and told Jackson nervously, “Go and see what Ziana is doing? She hasn’t come to see me for two days. I called her, but she didn’t answer. Since she had lunch with me two days ago, she never talked to me again.”

Winifred clenched her hands into fists instantly.

Ziana!

It was her again!

Ziana was always in Edison’s heart!

She must get rid of Ziana, so that Edison would belong to her alone!

The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee By Vera Whitehead Chapter 431-450

Chapter 431 Borls Awakened 

After she met with Sean, Zlana began investigating Mr. Halley. She dialed the phone number obtained from Sean. Initially, his phone was powered off. Later, it turned into a dead number.

Using hacking techniques to trace the number’s owner, she discovered it belonged to someone long deceased, with rumors that it had been purchased by another individual.

As for the buyer’s identity, there was no way to determine it.

This frustrated Ziana. Her growing concern was compounded by the fact that Boris had yet to regain consciousness.

Seven days had passed since the surgery.

During that time, she visited him in the hospital every day, hoping to find him awake.

As the days wore on without any sign of him stirring, everyone grew increasingly anxious.

When Ziana came on the eighth day, the attending doctor invited her to the office.

“Ms. Ava,” he said cautiously, his face etched with concern, “it’s not that I doubt your abilities, but Mr. Lewis still hasn’t awakened. It’s been eight days. Why hasn’t he come around yet?”

Ziana replied calmly, “It’s less than half a month and within the realm of normalcy. Just be patient.”

Her words provided the attending physician with a sense of reassurance.

“Alright, we’ll wait a bit longer.” He exhaled in relief. “Is the liquid administered to him the one. you prescribed?”.

Ziana pondered for a moment, reviewed the list of liquids she had prescribed, and eventually altered two of the medications. She said, “From today onwards, follow the revised prescription.”

The doctor took it, examined it, and looked up at her, his eyes filled with admiration.

The two modified doses might not have seemed particularly noteworthy, but they were remarkably well- suited when combined with the other medications.

The doctor couldn’t help but praise her. “Ms. Ava, may I study this prescription?”

Ziana pursed her lips. “Feel free to examine it. If there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask me.”

She exited the office, finding the typically quiet corridor was now bustling with uncharacteristic noise.

“Biber, you’re finally back! If you hadn’t returned, I wouldn’t have known what to do!”

Outside the ward, Steven held the tall and poised Biber. “Something happened to Boris.”

Livia, who stood beside them, said, “Biber came as soon as he heard about this!”

“Mm.” Biber pushed Steven away with a serious expression and raised his chin, “Let’s go in and see Boris.”

Steven quickly ushered them inside.

Ziana stood there, her brow creased.

Had Biber mentioned that he’d just returned from Galia? She advanced and soon found herself within the ward as well.

Steven was in the midst of explaining, “Ziana was kidnapped, and Boris went to save her. Somehow, they both ended up leaping from a moving car. Ziana was fine, but Boris suffered a severe brain. injury”

Biber’s face darkened as he gazed at Boris. “The news claims no one has operated on him. Don’t tell me the surgery hasn’t been performed yet.”

“Of course, it has,” Steven replied, noticing Ziana from the corner of his eye. He quickly beckoned her over. “Ziana performed the operation.”

Ziana found herself standing before Biber.

Unlike Steven, Biber possessed shrewd intelligence and a commanding presence.

“Miss Scott,” he addressed her, focusing solely on the matter at hand. “Pardon my asking, but did you perform the surgery on Boris?”

“I did, and there’s no need for concern. I’m highly skilled, and the operation proceeded smoothly. I don’t anticipate any complications.”

Biber nodded. “I’m not questioning your expertise. I simply want to know why he hasn’t awakened yet?”

Ziana wished she knew the answer herself.

She could only speak the truth, “His vital signs are stable. If he hasn’t woken up yet, then we must wait. There’s no better option now.”

Biber didn’t press further but asked Steven about recent events.

Steven, a chatterbox, told the story in detail. Livia listened intently, interjecting occasionally.

Biber listened quietly.

The ward was now filled with long lost liveliness.

About half an hour later, Biber whispered in Livia’s ear, “I’m going out for a smoke.”

Livia pursed her lips and looked at him. “Smoking kills.”

With a doting smile in his eyes, Biber gazed at her quietly.

Livia snorted and waved her hands. “I know you’re upset. I’ll let you smoke this once! Just to annoy me!”

Biber grinned and patted her slender waist before strolling out of the ward with a cigarette between his fingers.

Ziana followed close behind.

“Mr. Sam,” she called out.

Biber bit down on his cigarette and lit it. Hearing her voice, he turned around and raised his dark eyes slightly, “Miss Scott, you can call me Biber. Did you come here to talk to me alone?”

Compared to Steven, Biber had much higher emotional intelligence.

So, Ziana didn’t beat around the bush. “I just want to know what you were doing in Galia. Did Boris send you to investigate someone?”

Biber furrowed his brow.

He wasn’t sure why Ziana was asking such a question.

Seeing that he didn’t respond, Ziana paused before continuing, “Do you know about Boris being hypnotized?”

Now it was Biber’s turn to be stunned. He looked at her in surprise, “You remember?”

It seemed she was well-informed.

Ziana explained simply, “I was also hypnotized and only recently regained my memories. But that’s not important. I learned from Sean that there’s a man behind him called Mr. Hailey who has ordered him to deal with Boris.”

“Mr. Hailey?”

“I suspect it was Mr. Collins who kidnapped me five years ago,” Ziana said firmly. “Sean told me that Mr. Hailey’s feud with Boris began because Boris killed one of his sons. If he is Mr. Collins, then everything falls into place.”

“Did Boris ask you to investigate Mr. Collins?”

Hearing her words, Biber knew she was no outsider. “He indeed asked me to investigate Mr.

Collins, but the man I found has been dead for three years.”

“Dead?” Ziana exclaimed in disbelief. “Truly dead?”

If Mr. Collins was dead, then her suspicions were unfounded.

Biber pondered for a moment. “I’m not certain. Mr. Collins was a notorious gangster in Galia. He

was so successful that he became a household name. But apart from a few close associates, many his underlings had never even seen him. They don’t know what he looks like.

“It’s said that three years ago, during a power struggle for the leadership of the gang, Mr. Collins

was hacked to death and disappeared without a trace. His name faded into obscurity along with him. As for whether he truly died or not, only those at the scene would know.”

He spoke with a hint of regret. “But before I could investigate further, Boris had an accident and I ended up here.”

Ziana’s hope reignited. “So, it’s possible that he isn’t really dead.”

“It could be interpreted that way.”

Ziana clenched her fists. “Keep investigating. If you need help, just tell me.”

All of a sudden.

The door to the ward burst open from the inside.

Steven shouted, “Biber! Ziana! Hurry up! Boris is awake!”

Chapter 432 Boris Became Stupid 

Ziana and Biber were both surprised, looked at each other and immediately followed Steven into the hospital room.

Livia was standing by the bed. When she saw them, her expression was awkward, and she wanted to say something, as if she was unhappy.

Ziana frowned, having a bad feeling in her heart, and looked at Boris with suspicion.

Boris was indeed awake. Both of his eyes were deep, but they didn’t look as cold and majestic as before.

“What are you doing? Why aren’t you talking?” Steven smilingly walked to the bedside. “Boris, you’re finally awake. If you don’t wake up, I’m going to find someone to perform a religious rite for you! Hahaha! Now you believe me. I told you that Boris is tough, and will definitely pull through!”

The corners of Livia’s mouth twitched. “Ahem…”

“Dear Ziana! Oh! No, Ziana!” Steven was so immersed in the joy that he pushed Ziana right in front of Boris and said, “Boris, Ziana is your lifesaver, and you have to thank her properly! We won’t get involved in how you want to thank her.”

Boris’ eyes showed confusion and cocked his head to look at Steven.

After Steven noticed it, he immediately explained, “Ziana saved you! You had a head injury. I don’t know what the terminology is, but it’s very serious, and you need a very good specialist to operate on you. But the experts who could do the surgery couldn’t come, so Ziana did it.”

“Ziana is great!” He gave a thumbs up. “You would never guess that Ziana is Ava!”

Steven finished, then realized that Boris hadn’t said anything, and couldn’t help but be puzzled.

“Boris?”

Boris’ eyes fell on his raised finger, then he slowly raised his hand and also gave a thumbs up.

Steven was startled, thinking that Boris was indeed unique to Ziana.

Boris never used to do this kind of thumbs-up action. Now he had actually learned it in order to praise Ziana.

Steven happily wiggled his thumb up and down. “Boris, do you think Ziana is great too?”

What he didn’t expect was that Boris imitated his action, wiggled his hand, and said the same thing.

Boris, don’t you think Ziana is great too?”

Everyone in the room was dumbfounded.

Steven reacted violently. “Boris, why are you talking like me?”

Boris then said, “Boris, why are you talking like me?”

“Damn it!” Steven jumped up in shock. “Boris, you’re stupid!”

“Boris, you’re stupid!” Boris followed word for word.

Steven was filled with trepidation. “Oh my God, Boris is stupid. Ziana, check him out! I’m going to call the doctor!”

From the time he met Boris as a child, Boris has always been very cold and serious. He was only five years old at the time and acted like an adult. He didn’t seem to be childish at all.

But now, he was imitating other people’s words like a child!

This was so abnormal!

The more Steven thought about it, the more alarmed he became. Could the intelligent Boris have. become a fool because of the head surgery?

What a disaster!

The few people left in the room looked at each other, each with their own thoughts.

Ziana looked at the man on the bed, hesitated for a moment, and whispered his name. “Boris?”

“Hungry.” He said with a pitiful face.

Ziana was speechless. It was so bizarre to see his handsome, serious face showing a pitiful expression!

“Hungry.” When she didn’t reply, he said again, “I’m hungry.”

She didn’t say anything, and he pouted aggressively.

Ziana was speechless.

“Hungry.”

Ziana helplessly cleared her throat. “We’ll eat after the doctor has come to check on you.”

Just as she finished speaking, Steven rushed in like a gust of wind, followed by several doctors in white coats. novelbin

When the attending doctor saw Ziana, he came up to her and asked in a low voice. “Mr. Lewis is acting silly?”

Ziana nodded. “It seems to be for now.”

She was confident in her medical skills and had no problem with the whole procedure. It was logical that he shouldn’t turn out to be stupid.

“Take him for a checkup,” Ziana instructed. “See if there is still bruising inside the brain.”

The attending doctor had never encountered this kind of situation before, and he did whatever. Ziana told him to do.

The doctor beckoned for the nurse to take Boris to be examined. But Boris sat still. As soon as the person approached, he looked at Ziana with a frightened face and said over and over again, “I’m afraid.”

Ziana had never seen such a pitiful Boris, whose eyes were like those of a poor puppy.

Her heart softened and she sat on the bedpan and whispered to soothe him. “You go with them, and I’ll take you to dinner when you get back.”

Boris pursed his lips and didn’t speak or move.

Ziana’s voice was gentler. “What’s wrong?”

Boris dropped his head, his long eyelashes moving to hide the emotions in his eyes, and said. “Stay with me.”

“You want me to stay with you?”

He looked up at her quickly, and then down again quickly. His one hand nervously and helplessly touched the needle in his other hand for the infusion.

Ziana hurriedly grabbed him to keep him from moving around. “Okay, I’ll stay with you.”

With her words, Boris was very cooperative in everything he did.

When the nurse pulled out the needle, he complained that it hurt and Ziana immediately coaxed him gently.

When he got out of bed, Ziana helped him again. The two of them just walked out of the ward, clinging to each other..

Steven was worried and wanted to follow him, but when he passed Biber, he was stopped.

“Biber? Why are you stopping me?” Steven walked out while peeling his hand. “Come on, let’s all go keep Boris company.”

Silly.” Biber pulled him back. “With Ziana around, you’re not needed.”

Steven hadn’t caught his implication. “Although there is Ziana, we as brothers cannot be present! Hey, I want to cry just mentioning it!”

He said, choking up. “I was happy that Boris woke up. But Boris is stupid after waking up! He has such a high IQ. What a great loss to the Lewis Company and the Bush Company if he becomes a fool!”

He sucked his nose. “What will we do if Boris stays stupid?”

The corners of Biber’s mouth twitched slightly at Steven’s genuine sadness.

Livia slipped him a tissue, which he lazily tossed to Steven. “It won’t.”

“What?”

“Boris won’t be stupid.” Biber’s eyes shone.

Steven blew his nose hard. “That’s what I was hoping. Jesus Christ! Hurry up and give me back my incredibly smart, invincibly bright Boris!”

Biber snorted a laugh.

If Boris was stupid, why was he sticking to Ziana alone when so many people were present?

Chapter 433 Staying With Him at Night 

Ziana took Boris to have a brain CT and the results came out quickly.

It was just as she had imagined. Except for some bruises that hadn’t completely faded, everything else was normal.

The attending doctor stared at the test report for a long time and finally looked at Ziana. “Ms. Ava, so what’s the cause?”

“If it’s just this much bruising, it shouldn’t make him stupid,” Ziana said. She noticed Boris and thought of something, and continued, “But it’s not necessarily true. The brain is actually very fragile. He’s had PTSD before and was on psychotropic drugs for a while.”

The doctor said, “That’s possible, but I’d have to consult with a doctor in that area.”

“Leave it to me.” Ziana looked at the cute Boris and softened her tone, “I’ll find the cause as soon as possible.”

Boris was such a good person. She was not going to let him become a fool.

Zezili was old and the Lewis family only had one heir left. What would happen to the Lewis Company if he didn’t recover?

Ziana looked at Boris with worry. Boris seemed to notice something and suddenly looked up.

His eyes were fixed on her. He suddenly pouted his mouth pitifully and rubbed his stomach without saying a word.

Ziana was touched by such a cute action of his.

Ziana was used to seeing the serious Boris. When she saw him like this, Ziana’s motherly nature was aroused. She seemed to have accepted such a cute and lovable Boris.

“Come on, I’ll take you to dinner.” She said and extended her hand towards him.

Boris pursed his lips and took her hand.

The woman’s hand was small and soft and seemed to be fragrant. He held it gently, not daring to make any other move.

Ziana led him back to the ward, Biber and Steven and others were still there.

When they saw them coming back, they hurriedly asked for the results.

After Ziana informed the result, Steven wailed at once.

Just at that time, Donald brought in the food he had bought and set it out on the table one by one.

Ziana asked Boris to dinner. Boris sat down, grabbed the utensils, and tried to eat.

But his grip on the fork was not right at all.

Steven was distressed. “Boris, that’s not the way to use a fork!”

Boris didn’t listen, but he couldn’t pick up the food..

Steven was about to make a move when Biber held him down.

He was puzzled and confused.

The next moment, Ziana showed Boris how to use the fork.

Boris followed suit.

“Awesome.” Ziana felt in a trance that she seemed to be raising an older Ewen. “Eat more, your stomach.”

The more Steven looked at such a warm and friendly picture, the more his heart broke.

“I’m going out for a break.” He said, sadly fleeing the ward.

Biber gave Livia a wink.

Livia understood it and said worriedly. “Mr. Howard looks very sad, should we go and check?”

“Boris has always been his idol and the person he admires the most. Boris suddenly became a fool, so he can’t accept it. The blow must be great to him.” Biber and she echoed each other. “I’ll go and comfort him.”

He finished and nodded to Ziana. “Ziana, please take care of Boris.”

Ziana couldn’t refuse. She was just about to explain when, in the blink of an eye, Biber had disappeared. She moved her lips and looked at Livia helplessly.

Livia shrugged her shoulders and hurriedly said, “I’ll go too!”

She said and left the ward in a flash.

Ziana had expected them to come back later. But it was getting dark, and there was still no sign of them.

She called Steven, but no one answered. She called Biber, and after a few seconds of ringing, she heard a familiar voice.

“Ziana?” Biber’s voice was low and deep, with a slight drunkenness. “Is something wrong?”

“I wanted to ask where are you guys. It’s getting late, and I’m ready to go home.”

She had Ewen waiting at home. Ewen was so attached to her now that he wouldn’t go to bed until he was kissed and hugged.

“Steven is in a bad mood and drinking. I’m keeping him company.” Biber explained his position. “If you want to go home, go back. There’s a caregiver in the hospital, and he’ll take care of Boris.”

Ziana hung up the phone and said to the caregiver in the ward. “I’m going home, keep an eye on him tonight.”

The nurse nodded. “Yes. Don’t worry.”

Ziana was just about to get up when her hand was suddenly grabbed hard.

Boris’ eyes were red, and he was biting his lip, looking vulnerable and pathetic. “Don’t leave.”

“I’ll come back tomorrow,” Ziana said.

Boris shook his head pitifully. It was a silly gesture that he hadn’t bothered to make before.

“Don’t leave.” He repeated as if he were about to cry out. “Don’t leave.”

Ziana had to explain to him patiently. “It’s dark, and I’m going back to bed. I’ll see you when I wake up.”

Boris patted his bed and looked at her with a pout. His meaning was clear.

Ziana understood. “You want me to sleep here?”

Without waiting for his answer, she added. “No, I want to go home. Good boy.”

She pushed his hand away and Boris wiped his eyes in great hurt.

She frowned but got up anyway.

Boris followed and got up.

She gave him a look and headed out the door.

Boris also got right out of bed and walked out barefoot.

Ziana looked at him in surprise and cruelly took a few more steps. When she looked back, he was following behind her.

The tall, upright man was hanging his head down, like a child who had made a mistake.

When she looked at him, his two eyes looked at her, making her heart turn soft.

Ziana couldn’t bear to leave Boris like this, but she missed her baby Ewen, who was still waiting for her at home.

When she was in a dilemma, Boris came to her side at some point. He took his hand tightly and looked at her like a puppy dog. He didn’t say anything, but his eyes said it all. He wanted her to stay with him.

Ziana let out a long sigh and nodded helplessly under his gaze. “Come on, let’s go back to the ward.”

Boris immediately smiled.

His mouth was smiling and his eyes were smiling. He was adorable.

Ziana called Donald and stayed at the hospital.

The nurse saw her go and return and said sensibly. “I’ll go get your overnight supplies.”

Overnight supplies…

Ziana nodded her head. She was only here to keep him company, but always felt shy about the way the caregiver looked at her.

Her cheeks suddenly flushed and she looked at Boris.

Boris’ eyes were full of pure delight.

Ziana uncomfortably ruffled her hair.

The man had become a fool, like a three-year-old. What could she be thinking?

She didn’t think anything, and it was the caregiver who misunderstood her.

Ziana was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn’t notice at all that Boris looked at her red earlobe, his eyes growing deeper and deeper.

Chapter 434 Sleeping Together 

The caregiver was well-prepared and brought over a large bag full of things.

“Miss Scott, will you see what else you need? If you have any special needs, you can let me know.”

Ziana’s mouth twitched slightly, and she shook her head. “No more, thanks.”

“Okay, I’ll be in the living room. Feel free to call me if you need anything.”

The caregiver left. Seeing that it was getting late, Ziana prepared to wash up.

She picked up the big bag of stuff, and Boris followed her like a little tail.

He looked at her and then at the big bag, his eyes shining with curiosity.

Ziana was amused by his reaction. “What are you looking at?”

The more she said this, the more Boris stuck his head forward, his face almost on the bag.

Ziana pushed his head away and flicked him on the forehead as he looked over in confusion. “Be a good boy and don’t move.”

Boris heard the words and placed both hands in front of his body in a regular manner, not moving anymore.

She couldn’t help but laugh.

In fact, such a simple and silly Boris was far cuter and more likable than the usual cold one.

She took out the contents of the bag one by one.

Towels, shampoo, face masks, various high-end skin care products, and a whole set of makeup supplies…

Suddenly, an object appeared in front of her eyes and Ziana’s hand paused.

“What is this?” Boris asked out loud. He looked very confused as his eyebrows were knitted together.

Ziana was embarrassed. Her scalp instantly tightened when she was asked.

“Nothing.” She hurriedly shoved her underwear back into the bag, even intentionally covering it with something else. “What are you looking at? Turn your head away!”

“Okay.”

Boris obediently responded, moving slowly to incline his head.

” Ziana breathed a soft sigh of relief, not expecting his voice to come from in front of her again.

“what’s

“What’s that thing?”

“What?” She simply played confused and glared at him in a warning. “Nothing. No more questions, got it?”

“Oh.” The man’s voice was muffled.

“Don’t pry into women’s affairs,” Ziana muttered. “From now on, no talking and no turning your head without my permission.”

“Why?”

“No reason!” Ziana crossed her arms. “Are you disobeying me? I’m going home if you don’t listen to me!”

Boris hurriedly tried to turn around. But when he thought of what she said, he was too scared to move.

So he moved his body awkwardly and looked very funny.

Ziana was overjoyed. “Stand still! Stop!”

Boris was frozen in place with a jerk of his body.

Ziana laughed and went over to him and rubbed his head. “Good boy.”

Boris, who had his back to her, smiled.

“Okay, no turning around. I’m going to wash up.” She finished and went to call the caregiver in, so she could wash and clean Boris.

She, in turn, went into the bathroom.

The restroom was a separate space. But the thought of Boris outside made Ziana a little. uncomfortable.

Although they were a couple and even had a child, they were not close.

Ziana blushed. As fast as she could, she took a shower, changed into new, clean clothes, and dressed neatly.

From the time she got into the shower, to the time she got out of the shower, the process only took half an hour.

“Miss Scott.” As soon as the caregiver saw her come out, he immediately looked like he had caught à lifeline. “Why don’t you help him wash up?”

“What’s wrong?” Ziana was puzzled.

The caregiver explained helplessly, “Mr. Lewis keeps doing this. I talk to him, but he doesn’t respond. I ask him to turn around, he doesn’t move. If he hadn’t blinked occasionally, I would have thought he was a dummy.”

“Ahem.” Ziana said helplessly to Boris’ back, “You can turn around now.”

The next second, Boris was like a machine loaded with batteries, meticulously following the instructions and facing the two.

His expression was serious, but he looked foolish.

Ziana couldn’t help but touch the top of his head again. “Next, cooperate with the caregiver in washing up. Do whatever he tells you to do, do you understand?”

Boris pursed his lips and didn’t say anything.

The corners of Ziana’s mouth twitched. “Now you can talk, do you understand?”

“Understood.”

Ziana gave the caregiver a look. “Now you can help him wash up.”

Boris never took his eyes off Ziana while he was being served to wash up.

He looked straight ahead, unblinking, as if he couldn’t get enough of it.

The caregiver was caught between the two, embarrassed. He moved faster and faster and left quickly after ten minutes of haste.

It didn’t feel good at all to be between them!

“Don’t look,” Ziana said fiercely. “You’re clean and ready for bed. On my command, lie down!”

Boris thumped and fell straight to the bed.

The corners of Ziana’s mouth twitched.

“That’s good.” She encouraged him like a child. “Close your eyes!”

Boris closed his eyes abruptly.

“Great!” Ziana praised, “From now on, no talking, and start sleeping!”

She leaned over to cover him up, her eyes falling on his overly handsome face.

The next second, his closed eyes suddenly opened, startling her.

“What are you doing?” Ziana jerked back and pulled away. “Didn’t I tell you to sleep with your eyes closed? Why did you open your eyes?”

He opened his eyes so abruptly!

They met eye to eye. She was a little shy as he stared at her!

“No.” He said.

“You’re not going to sleep?” Ziana looked at the time. It was already after nine o’clock. “I’m sleepy though if you’re not.”

“You sleep,” Boris said, patting the spot next to him. “Sleep.”

He was going to let her sleep with him?

He was dreaming.

“No.” Ziana walked over to the companion bed next to her. The caregiver had already put on new bedding, and she laid down and covered up. “I’m so sleepy. You can count sheep with your eyes closed if you don’t sleep.”

She said and yawned, pulling the covers upward and closing her eyes.

In spite of this, she could still feel the strong eyes cast by the man next to her.

But gradually, she felt her body getting lighter and lighter, and all her senses were moving away..

After a long time. novelbin

Boris lifted the covers and got out of bed.

He came to the side of the woman’s bed and looked down at her.

The room was warm and the woman’s face was flushed. Her long, curling eyelashes cast a faint dark shadow on her fair skin.

Her breathing was soft and long. With each breath, her chest rose and fell.

Boris pursed his lips and slowly leaned over.

Chapter 435 Playing Dumb and Tricking Her 

He carefully lifted the covers and gently got in, keeping an eye on Ziana’s reaction.

Good.

She wasn’t awake.

After lying down, he quietly leaned toward her. Their bodies were next to each other.

She still wasn’t awake.

Boris was sure that she was asleep.

He was a little bolder and kissed her gently on her full, red lips.

His mouth touched her briefly and quickly and then moved away quickly. novelbin

His eyes fell on her face.

She was still sleeping peacefully and quietly, not disturbed at all by his rude behavior.

Boris raised his eyebrows, smiled smugly and closed his eyes in satisfaction.

He slept until 5:30 when he woke up on time.

The woman beside him was still awake. She didn’t usually get up at this time. But Boris could not lie down any longer, even if he did not want to leave.

If he was found out, Ziana, being so smart, would guess that he was not stupid.

It had been so hard for her to be so nice to him for the past two days, and he was too greedy for that feeling, so he had to pretend.

Boris once again tiptoed and went back to his bed.

It was cool inside the blanket, and indeed, it was a bit lonely to sleep alone.

He sighed, though not sleepy, and closed his eyes for the sake of the whole scheme.

About twenty minutes later, there was a rustling movement in the next bed.

The sound of a woman’s early morning voice reached his ears, causing him to stiffen slightly like an electric shock.

Boris took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

After a while, Ziana got up.

The first thing she did after getting up was to touch her mouth.

Last night, she dreamed that there were demons eating people’s mouths. She fought all night for her mouth not to be eaten.

She could do nothing, but then something still seemed to be licking her.

Ziana touched her mouth and thought back to the dream she had. She had remembered it particularly well, and when she opened her eyes, she had forgotten it all.

Forget it.

She couldn’t remember.

Ziana stretched out and got out of bed to wash up. When she passed Boris, she saw that his quilt was not covered, so she helped him to put it on.

She felt the blanket was cold and there was no heat inside.

Ziana frowned and looked thoughtful for a moment. Turning back to her bed, she felt under the quilt.

The area where she was sleeping was hot, and there was no problem.

Why was there residual heat even in the area where she wasn’t lying? Besides, there were marks on the pillow.

Ziana landed her eyes on Boris.

And he kissed me?

He’s not stupid?

Just then, the caregiver knocked on the door. “Miss Scott, are you awake? What would you like to eat in the morning? I’ll go get breakfast.”

“Awake.” Ziana withdrew her gaze and smiled. “I’ll go get it later.”

The caregiver said quickly. “I’d better go. It’s cold in the morning in the winter, and you’re dressed thinly. Don’t catch a cold.”

“It’s okay, I’m just going out for a morning run.” Ziana did not want to dwell on this topic and directly settled the matter. “It’s a deal.”

The caregiver heard that she was firm, so she did not insist.

Ziana washed up and walked out of the room and was greeted by the caregiver in the living room. “Miss Scott, be careful.”

“Yes, I’m going for a run.”

“Okay.” The caregiver watched her leave and walked into the room a few moments later. “Mr. Lewis, Miss Scott has gone out for her morning run.”

Boris didn’t sleep just now, so he naturally heard the conversation between the two people.

He laughed and said, “When she comes back for dinner, find your excuse to leave, got it?”

“Yes, I understand. I will leave you two alone.” The caregiver smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll just say I have diarrhea.”

Boris admired the smart guy and looked at him. “Just come back in an hour.”

“Yes!”

Little did they know, however, that Ziana had left the ward and called Donald. “Come and get me.”

Boris washed up and looked at the time frequently.

When he was staying at the Scott family’s castle, he learned that Ziana’s morning run was half an hour long.

There was a breakfast store right outside the hospital. With the round trip, she should be back in fifty minutes at most.

An hour had passed, but she didn’t return. He couldn’t help but worry. “Call her.”

Seeing his face full of anxiety and a look of impatience, the caregiver hurriedly did as he was told.

But the phone rang twice and was hung up.

“Mr. Lewis, what’s… what’s going on?”

Boris’ eyes deepened. “Call her again.”

A minute later, the caregiver said cautiously. “Mr. Lewis, she’s turned off her phone.”

Boris’ hand tightened, and he ordered, “Get the surveillance and see what she’s been doing.”

Twenty minutes later.

The caregiver answered rigidly and with trepidation. “Mr. Lewis, Miss Scott… No, Mrs. Lewis took the car and left.”

Boris pursed his lips.

Was it because of that kiss yesterday? She hadn’t fallen asleep and guessed he was playing stupid?

“Mr. Lewis,” the caregiver asked, “what’s next?”

Boris suddenly walked outside in his bare feet. The caregiver saw this and shouted, “Mr. Lewis, shoes! Your shoes!’

Boris simply ignored him and walked barefoot out of the hallway, downstairs, to the hospital entrance, and out into the street. The caregiver followed behind him with a dumbfounded expression.

Could it be that their president was stimulated silly?

He was always very demanding of himself and paid great attention to his image, but today he actually wore a hospital gown and walked barefoot on the street.

There were already many people around taking pictures and recording videos.

The caregiver was just about to speak when he saw Boris get into a car. Before he could react, the car drove away.

He ran after the car and shouted anxiously, “Mr. Lewis, Mr. Lewis, where, are you going?”

Chapter 436 My Wife Doesn’t Want Me 

Ziana got into the car and closed her eyes, not saying a word. Donald could feel the appalling aura on her.

Donald remembered that Ziana hadn’t seemed so angry in a long time.

He quietly looked in the rearview mirror a few times frequently. Even if he was careful, he was still detected.

“I have gold on my face?” Her red lips moved lightly, and her tone was sharp.

“You look furious.” Donald thought, but said, “Miss Scott, you are very pretty…”

“Drive your car.” Ziana interrupted him in a bad mood.

Donald had to stop talking. He couldn’t even coax her to calm down, so she seemed to be really angry.

Donald drove all the way to the villa without a word.

When Ziana pushed the door in, the family was eating breakfast, and Marlyn’s voice was the most prominent.

“It’s fake! How can that be Mr. Lewis? I don’t believe it!”

“But if Mr. Lewis isn’t stupid, how could he do such a thing? I see in the video that he is indeed out of his mind.” This time it was Gigi who spoke, and she sighed, “Mr. Lewis is a big shot. It’s a pity that he’s stupid like this.”

Boris’ crazy video of him running around barefoot was now at the top of the list of major video sites.

Marlyn naturally also saw the video and said softly, “I still don’t want Mr. Lewis to become a fool, then Ziana should be very sad.”

Ziana sniffed coldly. “I’m not sad. It’s better if he’s stupid!”

The people in the room looked at each other with different expressions.

“Dear Ziana!” Marlyn was so curious that she rushed to pull her to the table. “You’re back? Have you had breakfast? Have you seen Mr. Lewis who has turned into a fool?”

“Hmph!” Ziana’s chin lifted. “Don’t mention him!”

Marlyn shot a wink at the crowd.

Mrs. Scott immediately changed the subject. “We won’t mention him. Dear Ziana, my girl, have you had breakfast yet?”

“No.”

Mrs. Scott immediately slapped the table and chided delicately, “Didn’t you hear what Miss Scott said? Hurry up and serve Miss Scott!”

After a quick breakfast, Ziana went upstairs and got into the room.

Marlyn pondered for a moment with her cheeks in her hands and said thoughtfully. “Ziana’s reaction reveals a message.”

“What?” Gigi asked.

Marlyn winked at her thoughtfully. “Mr. Lewis isn’t stupid.”

Soon, however, she wavered in her deduction, as Boris produced a new video.

The video showed him sitting on the floor with no regard for his image, shouting “my wife doesn’t want me anymore”. What a fool!

Netizens saw this video and were shocked.

Soon. “My wife does not want me” quickly exploded the network.

The netizens’ comments were pouring out.

“Mr. Lewis used to be very strong and vigorous. But look at him now. I really want to cry!”

“Even the richest cannot escape the suffering of love!”

“No love! Let’s stay away from love!”

“Vivi is a bitch! Mr. Lewis is so devoted to her, but she made Mr. Lewis like this!”

“Mr. Lewis is crazy because of the stimulation, right? I can’t believe Mr. Lewis is stupid. Maybe it’s better for him to be stupid!”

Gigi nudged Marlyn, who was already frozen and looked upstairs worriedly. “In my opinion, Mr. Lewis is probably really stupid…”

At this moment, in the upstairs room.

Ziana also saw this popular video of Boris.

“My wife doesn’t want me anymore…”

“I made my wife angry… She doesn’t want me anymore…”

“Honey, I was wrong. Come back, Honey, where did you go to buy food… Don’t you want me anymore?”

Ziana stared at the video and studied it carefully for a long time. Whether in his demeanor or his words, Boris acted like a complete fool.

In fact, he is really stupid and took me for his wife. That’s why he secretly kissed her and hugged me in the middle of the night?

If that’s how it has to be explained, it seems to make sense.>

No!

Would a fool run back to his bed before she woke up for fear of being discovered by her?

Ziana woke up with a jolt. Yeah. Just by the fact that he was back in bed on time, he wasn’t stupid!

A cunning man!

A Liar!

Ziana gritted her teeth and stared at the man in the video, suddenly poking him hard in the face. “You’re pretending! Don’t call me wife. Who is your wife? You’re crazy! I’ll poke you to death!”

She poked and suddenly clicked on the comment below.

“Hey, Mr. Lewis, your wife is dead. How can she come back to you!”

Ziana was speechless. How could this person talk so meanly?

She typed quickly, “Your wife is dead! Why are you cursing his wife?” novelbin

But the other party quickly replied. “His wife is Vivi, and Vivi’s death is in the news. Don’t you know?”

Ziana looked at this reply and was also angry.

She snickered, rolled up her sleeves, and continued typing. “Who said his wife was Vivi? Did they get a license? Is it legally recognized? She’s his girlfriend at best!”

The other party was defiant. “Damn. Are you crazy? If Mr. Lewis’ wife is not Vivi, is it you? You have a thick waist and round hips like a water tank. You can sit on Mr. Lewis to death with your ass. Even if Mr. Lewis is stupid, he won’t even look at a girl like you even when you are naked and sent to his door!”

Ziana’s eyes were rounded.

She had a thick waist and round hips like a water tank?

She could sit on Boris to death with my ass?

Boris won’t even look at a girl like her even when she was naked and sent to his door?

Ha!

Ziana used to think that it was childish for people to argue online. Now she realized that some

people just have this ability. Even across the internet, even if they didn’t see each other in person, some people could make their blood pressure soar.

She sneered, “Excuse me, last night he slept next to me, and kissed me while I was asleep. He likes me so much!”

The other party did not reply for five minutes.

Just when Ziana thought she had won the argument, a new message suddenly popped up.

“@The chief physician of the Second Japera City Psychiatric Hospital, one has escaped from your hospital. Send someone to catch her!”

Ziana was speechless.

What!

She was so angry and amused that she didn’t know how to reply at all.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Ziana took a deep breath and opened the door to see Mrs. Scott. “Mommy, what’s wrong?”

“Someone came to the house looking for you.”

The person from downstairs was Nell.

Ziana saw him and her expression was cool, her arms around her chest. She looked proud. “Give you a minute, what happened?”

Nell had checked with the caregiver. Seeing Mrs. Lewis being treated like this, he mourned for Mr.

Lewis but said as he was told, “Mrs. Lewis, Mr. Lewis is wandering around outside and

refuses to go back. He has to see you before he stops, so I just…”

“You can call the police.” Ziana didn’t want to bother. “It’s useless for you to come to me.”

Nell coughed softly. “Mrs. Lewis, Mr. Lewis is still not well. It’s getting cold. He hasn’t healed from his head wound. If he keeps running outside, it’s not good for him to recover. If he has any after-effects…”

“That’s what he deserves. His legs are on his own, so can I control it?”

“Yes!” Nell suddenly said loudly, “You’re the only one in the world who can control him, and you’re the only one he listens to!”

Ziana gave him a hard stare. “What trouble!”

Ziana finished her sentence and strode out the door. Nell saw that there was a chance. While walking out the door, he secretly sent out a message.

Chapter 437 You Are My Only Wife 

Boris smiled as he got Nell’s text.

“Is Mrs. Lewis coming?” the nurse asked.

“Yeah,” his tone softened, and then he continued with a gloating expression, “She cares about me so much. She won’t leave me alone.”

The corner of the nurse’s mouth twitched a little. “Yes, I can see that, sir. You are perfect for each other.”

“Everyone says that.” Boris said without changing his expression and then ordered, “Let’s go out for a walk.”

Half an hour later.

The nurse suddenly coughed loudly, “Here she comes!”

Boris immediately asked someone to remove the chair, then sat down on the ground, holding the pillar with both hands in a daze.

They were in an alley.

The bodyguard who came to look for him blocked the alley, and there was no one else for several miles.

Nell got out of the car with Ziana, headed to the alleys, and walked in front of Boris quickly.

The head of the bodyguards recited the prepared lines, “Mr. Lewis refuses to leave, Mrs. Lewis. He was sitting there like this for a while, and no one could do anything about it. You know he is good at fighting, so we couldn’t get near him…”

“Boris!” Ziana interrupted the security guard and demanded, “Get up!”

Sitting on the ground, Boris raised his head leisurely, his gray eyes lit up, “Ziana!”

Ziana sneered. She had already seen through his trick.

“Get up.” She said, looking at him.

Boris pursed his lips, looked at her with his watery eyes, and repeated, “Ziana!”

Ziana frowned. Then she stepped forward, pinched his ears, and pulled him up.

Boris bent over to cooperate with her, crying out that it hurt, but the corners of his lips lifted up.

Seeing this, Nell rolled his eyes. This happened again. The mighty Mr. Lewis acted like this in front of Ziana again.

Ziana grabbed Boris’ ears and pulled him into the car.

“Go back to the hospital!”

Nell immediately started the car.

Boris sat on the chair and moved to her side stealthily.

“Stop it!” Ziana tilted her head toward him and warned. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on him. “You have some explaining to do when we go back to the hospital!”

“Honey!” He tilted his head and leaned his head on her shoulder.

Ziana pushed him away. Boris placed his head on her shoulder again, didn’t care about Ziana’s reaction.

Ziana sneered. “Do you really think I don’t know what is going on? Don’t you feel awkward?”

“I just want to be by your side, Ziana!” He tilted his head toward Ziana’s neck as if he couldn’t leave her at all and continued, “I knew you wouldn’t leave me alone. You are the best wife a guy could ever ask for!”

Ziana looked at him indifferently, “You’d better think about how to explain to me about pretending to be mentally challenged.”

Unexpectedly, after listening to this sentence, Boris’ expression didn’t change.

He rubbed his head against her neck and praised, “You are so smart. You immediately see through me! Sure enough, I’m a fool. I shouldn’t have kept secrets from my wife.”

Ziana was silent for a few seconds, then retorted, “It is getting disgusting. Who taught you to say those things?”

Nell couldn’t help but bursting out laughter.

His laughter turned into a feigned cough as he saw Boris’ murderous gaze through the rearview mirror.

Ziana closed her eyes. “I am going to take a rest. Don’t disturb me.”

Soon afterwards, the car stopped at the parking lot, and they took the private elevator and headed to the VIP ward.

Nell knew better than to meddle in their conversation. Thus, he didn’t even enter the room. “I’ll be waiting outside. Call me if you need anything, Mrs. Lewis.”

He intimately closed the door for them. novelbin

With no one else around, Boris lightly pulled Ziana’s sleeve, “Ziana.”

“Sit down!” She crossed her arms and ordered coldly.

In the next second…

Boris knelt on the ground, and he looked up at her. “Honey, I was wrong.”

Ziana raised her eyebrows. “I have to correct you. I’m not your wife. I’m your ex-wife.”

“No. You are my wife. Let me say it again. You are my wife, not my ex-wife. Don’t let me hear say that you are an ex-wife again! Do you hear me?

Let me tell you again. I mean it when I said you are my wife. My only wife. If you dare to question this again, I will kill myself in front of you!”

Ziana’s expression gradually froze, and she looked at him dumbfounded. “Who taught you to say. that? Where did you learn these stupid words?”

She struggled to ask out. She felt that something had really happened to Boris as she heard his words. Maybe he was really ill.

Boris replied honestly, “From the internet!”

“Stop learning those crazy words!” Ziana glared at him fiercely, “Tell me everything! Why did you pretend like you were dumb?”

Boris’ expression shifted. He hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly. “Because I want to be with. you. I could get your sympathy if you thought something had happened to me, and you will stay by my side. After all, we were together when the incident happened, and I thought maybe you would accept and forgive me if we spent more time together.”

Ziana raised her eyebrows mockingly. “That’s it?”

Boris pursed his lips. “Yes.”

Ziana got up suddenly and walked to the door.

Boris couldn’t accept her leaving like that, and when she passed by him, he hugged her leg. “Where are you going?”

“Let go of me. I want to go home!”

“Don’t leave.” Boris could sense that she was really fumed.

It seemed that right after he finished speaking, her expression obviously darkened.

The current situation was not that she could not leave him but that he couldn’t leave her.

He had a strong feeling that if he let her leave like that, it would be even more difficult to chase after her in the future.

“Let go!” Ziana patted his hands and said with an icy tone, “Don’t force me to beat you up, Boris!”

“Honey, don’t go! Please don’t go!” He hugged her tightly and put his face behind her, “I was wrong. I will never lie to you again!”

“Will never lie to me? How ironic” Rage, which had been suppressed in the first place, surged through Ziana’s veins.

She looked at him and sneered, “You said you wouldn’t lie to me, but you still lied to me in the last sentence. You want me to forgive you with an attitude like that?”

“No, I didn’t, honey!”

“OK, let’s talk about that.” Seeing that he refused to be convinced until the reality was revealed, Ziana spoke out, “You said you were playing dumb to win my sympathy, so why did you make everyone know about your condition? Why? To win everyone’s sympathy? But is everyone’s sympathy important to you, Boris?”

Boris’ clenched his fists a bit.

He knew she was smart, but he was always surprised by her intelligence.

Ziana saw that he didn’t answer and continued, “Don’t tell me you didn’t mean anything by it. I know how smart and calculative you are, Boris. You never do meaningless things, and letting everyone know about your condition wouldn’t do any good for Lewis Company! It will damage your reputation and encourage your enemies. I know you won’t make this kind of stupid move.

So, why did you act like that?”

Ziana once sent Sean’s files to Boris, and the file stated that Sean’s plastic surgery doctor was from Galia.

Boris had done some investigation about that doctor. The doctor was inextricably linked to the most powerful group in Galia.

Galia was a very sensitive place for him, and the kidnapping of him and Ziana five years ago was related to Galia.

He had to be vigilant, suspecting that there were people behind Sean and they had something to do with the kidnapping incident. Thus, he plotted all this.

Ziana was hypnotized and forgot what had happened five years ago. He didn’t want her to remember that painful memory, and he didn’t want her to get involved.

“No.” He said firmly, “I didn’t have other ulterior motives.”

Chapter 438 I Want to Be Your Boyfriend 

Boris didn’t say anything else about the real reason he had been acting stupid.

Ziana’s gaze turned cold gradually.

“Okay, I see,” she said calmly, “Let me go first.”

“You are not going to leave if I let you go, right?”

Ziana didn’t answer his question.

Boris knew what she meant and whispered stubbornly, “I won’t let go.”

Ziana nodded and suddenly clasped his hands on his wrists. It all happened so fast. Before Boris could react, he felt numb and weak for a while.

Ziana broke free from him easily, opened the door, and walked out.

“Ziana!” Boris stood up immediately and strode out of the ward, shouting, “Ziana!”

Ziana hadn’t gone far. He pursed his lips, chased after her, and wrapped his hands around her waist. from behind.

Ziana was irritated. “Let go off me!”

He lifted her up, held her under his arm, and carried her into the room. He was afraid she would make another move, so he tightly clamped her hand.

“Boris! What are you doing?” Anger was exploding in her chest. She couldn’t break free from his hands. Thus, she could only stare at him angrily.

“Don’t go!” He said domineeringly, and in the next second, he threw her heavily on the bed!

Ziana got dizzy for a second and almost couldn’t repress her anger anymore. She turned over and struggled to get up.

Boris knew she would act like that. So he threw himself on top of her and said, “I won’t let your leave until we talk things through!”

“Are you serious?” Ziana gritted her teeth with hatred, “I have nothing to say to you! You always have your own plans, and you don’t say anything when I ask. It was like this five years ago! You are still the same. If you don’t want to say it, forget it, okay? I am not going to ask you anymore! I don’t want to know, and I don’t care, you hear me?”

Boris fixed her two hands on the bed, and his body pressed against her tightly, making it impossible for her to move at all.

“Boris! Let go of me!”

After she finished speaking, she found Boris was looking at her deeply, eyes sparkling up from excitement.

“Just get the hell away from me!” Ziana was really pissed and even uttered swear words.

“Ziana did you…” Boris’ voice was a bit hoarse, and he asked nervously and cautiously, “You just said… five years ago?”

Ziana suddenly fell silent.

Boris was even more pleased but also worried at the same time. “Do you remember what happened five years ago?” he asked.

He once promised Max that out of consideration for Ziana’s health, he would not tell her what happened five years ago.

Therefore, he thought he was the only one who remembered those sweet, intimate, and unforgettable memories with her.

But now that she remembered it, would she still be tortured by those painful memories? Would she give him another chance to fall in love with him again when she thought about their love in the past?

Boris was sure, he heard it right. “When did you remember? Then you know our past, right?”

He held her face in his hands, looked at her carefully, and when he was about to kiss her, Ziana turned his head away.

“I remember it, but it doesn’t mean I still want to be with you. I don’t want to be with a man who hides everything from me.”

Boris’ expression stiffened, and he explained quickly, “I am not going to hide anything. I will tell you everything you want to know.”

Ziana sneered. “I don’t want to hear it now.”

“No, you want to hear it.” Boris leaned down and rubbed his face on her cheeks, and whispered, “I know you want to hear it, baby.”

“Stop rubbing your face against mine, you asshole!”

“Call me whatever you want, honey.” As Boris heard her respond, he threw away his so-called pride and said flatteringly, “I suspect that the people behind Sean are related to Galia, so I want to draw him out. I didn’t say it before because you didn’t have those memories. I promised our dad, Max, that I wouldn’t mention what happened five years ago.

“What? He is my dad.” Ziana pursed her lips.

Boris pressed his face on her cheeks again and replied, “Your dad is my dad.”

“Get up!” Ziana stared at him and ordered.

Their bodies were pressed tightly, and she was wrapped in his arms, his hot breathes landing on her neck, making her shiver.

Her body was melting every time their face touched.

“No.” He didn’t listen to her at all and changed the subject. “I was hypnotized before, so I forgot about the incident five years ago. And after I remembered everything, I began investigating the kidnapping case that year.”

Ziana nodded. “I know. Biber told me that he investigated Mr. Collins, but Mr. Collins died.”

Ziana thought Boris would be surprised when he heard it, but he wasn’t. He was calm and didn’t even lift his eyebrows.

Ziana frowned and reminded him, “Mr. Collins is dead.”

“That’s what I thought.” Boris didn’t take it seriously, “He planned to kidnap you. Whether he succeeds or not, he will never use his identity as Mr. Collins.”

“So you think he faked his death?”

She looked at him with her beautiful eyes,

They were very close, and Boris could clearly see his shadow in her pupils.

His gaze was scorching, and he moved closer. Ziana knew what he wanted to do as she noticed his movement, and she tried to stop him. “If you dare to kiss me, I will…”

He caressed her nose gently.

“I wasn’t going to.” Boris pretended to be puzzled. “I don’t dare to think anything like that in the middle of a serious conversation, babe. So please don’t tempt me like that. But if you want me to kiss you, you can just say that.”

“Shut up!” Ziana put on a serious face and continued, “The person behind Sean is Mr. Hailey. He told me himself. I think Mr. Hailey could be Mr. Collins. Because Sean said, Mr. Hailey became your enemy because you killed one of his sons.”

Boris raised his eyebrows. “Then that’s most likely the case.”

“Yeah, I think so too.”

“You found Mr. Hailey Yet?” Boris asked.

Ziana shook her head, “There is too little information. Sean has never met Mr. Collins in person. They only communicated by phone, but there is almost nothing to be found on that phone.”

“Is that so?” Boris asked out in a teasy tone, looked at her with a smile, and said, “I didn’t know the great Miss Scott couldn’t find it either!”

Ziana kicked him. “How dare you mock me? Just tell me what are we going to do if we can’t find anything about Mr. Hailey?”

“Don’t worry, he will come to us,” Boris said slowly, “He will avenge his son. If I don’t die, he will always come out and try to get back at me. But now, there is another way to attract his attention.”

Even though he was only wearing a hospital robe now, Ziana was inexplicably convinced by his calm and confident demeanor.

She couldn’t help asking, “What way?”

Boris’ deep eyes were gradually stained with a smile, and he said with a sexy voice, “Be my girlfriend.”

Ziana rolled her eyes.

He laughed. “I am serious. Think about it. Five years ago, he asked his son to kidnap us, but five years later, we were still together, but his son died. He will be pissed and resentful when he sees us like that. When he is angry, he will not be able to keep calm. He will not be able to think things through before he deals with us, and we will get the chance to hit him where it hurts.”

I like you, and now I want to be your boyfriend. What do you think?”

Chapter 439 The Stumbling Block Strikes Again 

Ziana felt that Boris was very scheming.

She said those same words when she had confessed her love to him five years ago.

After five years, he said those exact same words to confess his love to her.

What a copycat!

“I don’t want to,” Ziana growled, “Get up now, or I’ll scream!”

Like a mountain, his heavy body almost crushed her, and it was getting hard for her to breathe.

“Okay.” Boris saw her face flushed with anger and moved to the other side. “OK. I’ll ask you the question again tomorrow.”

Ziana had gotten used to his words.

She sat up, straightened her clothes, and refused. “My answer is the same. No matter when you ask me. I don’t want to engage in a romantic relationship with you at all.”

“Then I’ll ask until you agree.” Boris continued his trick, relentless begging.

Ziana snorted. “No matter how many times you ask and how long you ask, I won’t agree. You are wrong if you think you can get me by using this kind of sweet talk and chasing. I liked you before, so I got close to you even though you didn’t do anything. But now, I don’t like you. I am not getting back together and running in your direction just because you made a little effort.”

“Then I’ll run to you,” Boris said while staring at her calmly and domineeringly, “I’ll chase you. I will do all I can to get you back. I will give you all the respect and romance that you deserve. All I am asking is you give me a chance to pursue you. I will do it for as long as you want.”

He knew that he had made an unforgivable mistake before and hurt her feelings.

Although he had his reasons for what he did, as a big man, he was never willing to use those as excuses.

He hurt her, made mistakes, and no matter what the reason was, the hurt was real. He would not deny all that, and he would bear the consequences.

Ziana was shocked by his words.

She pursed her lips. “Whatever. Like I care.”

“I’ll take it as you agreed.” Boris lifted up the corner of his lips.

“No, I..”

“You said you wanted to go home?” Boris interrupted her, “I’ll see you off.”

“No need.” Ziana didn’t want to say too much. Even if she said something, he wouldn’t accept it and do whatever he wanted. She didn’t want to waste her breath. “I have a drive. I actually live quite well without you.”

“I believe that,” Boris confirmed, “but I’m not doing very well without you.”

Ziana rolled her eyes. She couldn’t believe all of his crap. How could he not be doing well with Vivi in his arms?

Thinking of this, she suddenly realized that she was jealous.

Ziana took a deep breath, suppressed those messy thoughts, and left the room.

Not long after, Nell opened the door and came in. “Mrs. Lewis just left like that? Should I drive her home?”

“She has a driver.” Boris put on his shoes and said, “You drive me there.”

Nell was puzzled, “Where are you going again, Mr. Lewis? You want to disappear and get her attention again? I don’t think Mrs. Lewis is going to fall for that again.”

Nell pursed his lips and thought about how to talk Boris out of it. Why did he always do that?

He didn’t know what had happened in the ward earlier, but he noticed Ziana’s cold face when she walked out of the room.

Could it be that he pissed her off again?

Nell couldn’t help but worry about their relationship and asked out, “What did you do, Mr. Lewis? You’re not as arrogant as before, are you?”

“Arrogant?” Boris shot daggers at Nell with his eyes and replied, “If you don’t stop saying those things, I will send you to Firia.”

“Sorry, Mr. Lewis. So we are going after Mrs. Lewis?”

“Hurry up!” Boris scolded, “We can’t catch up if you don’t stop muttering!”

Nell came to his senses and rushed out. “OK, Mr. Lewis. I am here for your service!”

The two went down to the garage and drove out of the hospital just in time to see Ziana getting into the car.

“Follow them,” Boris ordered.

As the head of the bodyguards, Donald was trained and experienced for every situation, and that was why he was given the task of protecting Ziana.

He was driving the Bentley for less than two miles when he realized someone was following them.

Looking in the rearview mirror, he saw a limited edition Rolls-Royce.

The car looked familiar, and it hit him. Boris had one. novelbin

Donald coughed softly. “Someone is following us, Miss Scott. It looks like it is Mr. Lewis’ car.”

Ziana glanced back, and the corner of her mouth twitched. “Don’t worry about him. Just drive.”

“OK.”

The two cars arrived outside the Scott family’s villa one after the other.

After Boris exited the car, he found they had already closed the gate. He saw Ziana’s slender figure through the fence.

Probably aware of his gaze, she stopped, turned slightly sideways, and raised her chin arrogantly toward him.

At that moment, she really looked like the proud Miss Scott in his memory.

Boris shook his head with a light smile and said to Nell, “Go and ring the doorbell.”

In fact, the butler was right in front of them. After they rang the doorbell, the butler asked why they were here.

Boris said solemnly, “I’m here to visit my in-laws. Also, I haven’t seen Ewen for a while.”

At this moment, Nell took out a lot of gifts from the trunk.

No wonder Boris asked him to buy those things. He had planned to come here a long time ago!

Nell had to admit that Boris was really smart. He could plan things way ahead of a lot of people.

The housekeeper quickly opened the gate and led them to the living room.

Nancy was talking to Ziana when she saw them from the corner of her eye. “Here they come.”

“Mom,” Boris called out without hesitation, “I am here to check out how you guys have been. Where’s Dad? Is he still busy with work?”

Seeing him like that, completely different from what she saw in the video, Nancy immediately guessed what was going on.

Nancy never asked too much about things that didn’t matter to her, not to mention she was not interested in men’s schemes.

Nancy nodded. “OK. Welcome. Make yourself at home.”

“Thank you. I want to see Ewen.”

At this time, Ewen probably didn’t have any classes, so she greeted Lillian to take Ewen downstairs.

Ewen could walk now, and when he was placed on the ground, he walked steadily with his little feet.

He walked in front, and Lillian followed him. Ziana saw Ewen and shouted, “Ewen! Come to Mommy!”

“Mom! Mom!” Ewen went straight to Ziana with a bright smile on his face.

He could speak simple words now, and this was inseparable from the daily training from his family.

Ewen had already inherited Ziana’s strengths, he was very smart, and it was not difficult for him to learn to speak.

Boris walked up to Ziana and picked Ewen up when he approached them.

“Boris!”

“I’m afraid that if you hug him, you’ll be exhausted,” Boris said flatteringly, “You can see him from my arms.”

Unexpectedly, Ewen still didn’t go in his way. He struggled fiercely, moved and arched in all directions, just refused to stay in Boris’ arms.

He stretched out his little hand to Ziana. “Mom! Hug!”

“Don’t move!” Boris commanded Ewen with a stern face,

Ewen turned around and looked at Boris. Boris raised his eyebrows and stared at him with a cold face. But the next second, Ewen burst into tears.

The corners of Boris’ mouth twitched slightly.

This, again?

What a cry baby!

Wouldn’t he get tired of using the same trick?

Ewen didn’t care how many times he used this trick as long as it worked. He would keep using it because Ziana would

“Boris! Did you just shout at him?” Ziana exploded as expected, her tone was icy, and she took Ewen from Boris. “You always like this. You don’t visit your son for a long time, or you make him cry every time you come. Ewen is a good boy, and he usually doesn’t cry. You are the only one who makes him cry whenever you come here!”


Chapter 440 Get Closer to You 

Boris didn’t know what to say to defend himself.

He looked at the little guy, and his brows twitched with anger.

When he decided to implement the plan, he thought about having a baby, which would become the unbreakable bond between Ziana and him.

He had thought when things were over, and if he were still alive, the kid would help him with winning her over.

He had imagined himself cooperating with the kid and getting Ziana back easily.

Who knew his son would be a stumbling block? novelbin

Ewen was so good at making him look like a bad guy!

Boris knew Ewen was acting, but Ziana didn’t know that. So he had to take some remedial measures.

Otherwise, Ziana would be pissed, and all his effort to stay here tonight would be in vain.

Boris made up his mind, took a deep breath, and adjusted his tone. “I’m sorry. I won’t do it again. I just don’t know how to get along with children. When I was very young, my parents ignored me and asked others to take care of me and discipline me. And those people are always strict and serious.”

He lowered his voice a bit. “Later, when I was four years old, I was sent abroad, where I had no relatives or friends. Everyone around me treated me coldly. I’m sorry I forgot Ewen’s age and got a bit strict. But don’t worry about it. I will learn how to raise kids as long as you teach me. And I am a fast learner. so I won’t make Ewen cry again.”

Ziana knew about Boris’ childhood.

Listening to him say those words peacefully stung her heart.

After having Ewen, her heart softened a lot.

As long as she thought about letting the four-year-old Ewen go abroad alone, she would feel extremely sympathetic to Boris.

Thus, Zíana didn’t really angry about Boris making Ewen cry.

When she was about to let it go, Ewen, who was resting in her arms, blurted out, “He… acting…”

His fleshy little finger pointed at Boris. “Shame! Shame!”

Ziana figured out Ewen was saying that Boris was sadfishing, and that was embarrassing.

“That’s right.” Ziana came to her senses and said, “I remember not long ago, someone said that he would chase after women by telling them his miserable past. I think you are ridiculous! Why are you asking me to teach you how to raise kids if your motive is sadfishing? I don’t know what you are up to, but I just think you are so full of crap.”

Then she hugged Ewen and quickly walked away. “Let’s stay away from him, sweetie. He is so cunning!”

Boris gritted his teeth.

Ziana led Ewen to his room to play with him. Although Boris was rejected by Ziana and Ewen, he didn’t frustrate by it at all. It took him a few seconds to snap out of it, and then he stood by their side and took every opportunity to please them.

Even if Ziana and Ewen refused his help several times, Boris was still ready to ask again.

In short, he would never give up.

When the others in the living room saw Boris’ moves, and were amazed.

Marlyn was stunned. She shook her head and covered her eyes. “I don’t want to see him like that. Is this really the Mr. Lewis that I know?”

Mr. Lewis was the richest man in Japera City, the heir to the biggest corporate, and had always been ruthless and aloof.

But now he was acting like a simp in front of Ziana.

“What happened to him?” Marlyn sighed, “It’s getting crazy!”

Gigi was not surprised.

In front of outsiders, Yudel was also a calm and indifferent man, but in front of her, he was not better than Boris.

She smiled and explained, “A man can do anything to coax the one he loves. You will know it when you meet one.”

Marlyn groped for words for a few seconds.

She thought about Luke acting like Boris acting in front of Ziana! Would Luke apologize to her in a low voice to coax her?

NO!

She couldn’t believe it! She wouldn’t even dream of it.

First of all, it was impossible for her to be angry with Luke. Luke paid her to be his wife. How dare she make him unhappy?

Secondly, she had no reason to be angry with Luke because she didn’t like Luke. The marriage between the two was only business.

She just wanted to be his wife during the agreement so that when the divorce came, maybe Luke would give her some extra bonuses for her outstanding performance.

After all, a beautiful, obedient, perfect wife like her was worth the price he paid.

The corners of Marlyn’s mouth lifted as she thought about the money she would get in the future.

Gigi reflected that Marlyn was thinking about Luke as she saw Marlyn’s expression. “I didn’t know their relationship was this good,” Gigi thought.

Boris did everything he could to make Ziana and Ewen happy all day. Max, Luke, and others came home one after another at dinner time.

Ziana urged Boris to go back to the hospital, but he just lingered, saying that he wanted to stay for dinner.

Max waved his hand and invited Boris to sit with them at the dinner table. Boris started to act like a good father and husband again.

After dinner…

Ziana looked at Boris discontentedly. “Why are you still doing at my house? You already ate.”

“I am here because of you,” Boris said bluntly, “The first thing you can do in chasing after a woman is to get close to her as soon as possible. If I stay here, I will have more time to accompany you. Chasing women takes time, doesn’t it?”

Ziana rolled her eyes. She didn’t know where he got those absurd methods about chasing women and stuff.

“Just go!” She still rushed him. “It isn’t appropriate because we don’t have anything to do with each other.”

“How come?”

“We have something to do if you think the title ex-husband is something you want to own.”

“If I leave, I will always be your ex-husband. If I stay here, I may become your husband. Besides, I stayed because I have something to tell Dad.” Boris was stern about staying at her house.

As soon as the words were finished, the housekeeper, Calvin, came over and respectfully invited

Boris to the study room.

Ziana muttered behind her, “What are you going to tell dad?”

“Do you want to know?” Boris smiled mischievously. “I’ll come to your room in a while and tell you all about it, OK? Just go back and wait for me first.”

After he finished speaking, he followed Calvin and left. Ziana looked at his back and couldn’t help but be amazed at his intelligence.

Every word he said was to create more opportunities to be with her.

She thought of five years ago and three years ago. She was the one who was after him, and he always responded like he didn’t care. She had thought that a nonchalant person like Boris would never pursue women, but she did not expect that it would be so overwhelming when he actually woo her.

He broke into her life domineeringly, that was so him.

Boris came out of Max’s study two hours later.

Then he chatted with Ziana’s brothers for a while, and when he appeared in front of Ziana’s bedroom door, it was already half past nine.

Usually, she was already asleep at this point, and Boris didn’t know if she would make an exception and wait for him today.

He leaned against the door and knocked lightly on the door, “Honey, are you asleep?”

No one responded.

He smiled and said gently, “It doesn’t matter if you’re asleep. I am going to tell you a bedtime story.”


Chapter 441 Win Her Over With His Beauty 

At the same time, in the palace in Wesbruck…

Edison greeted Princess Lia in her palace. They had a spit last time, the two have reconciled as before.

Princess Lia lifted the restraint on him, and Edison greeted her as usual, at least he never lost face.

“It’s almost the day when you and Winifred get engaged, has the guest list been sorted out?” Princess Lia asked while looking at him, taking a sip of coffee.

“It’s all sorted out, and the invitations are ready, and they will be sent out tomorrow,” Edison replied calmly.

Princess Lia carefully looked at his expression and didn’t find any impatience. From his tone, Princess Lia realized Edison wasn’t as repulsive about the engagement as before.

She couldn’t help being curious. “What did he say to you on the phone that day? Why did you suddenly accept the engagement with Winifred?”

She was referring to the phone call from Mr. Collins that day.

Edison glanced at her. “I am not going to marry Winifred no matter what, and he said he would help So stay out of it.”

“If he can help you get Ziana, I won’t jeopardize it,” Princess Lia said flatteringly.

The relationship between her and her son had worsened five years ago, and now she was relieved to be able to have a normal conversation with him like this.

Edison held the cup of coffee and shook it lightly. “He said he would help me.”

Princess Lia smiled. “You know, as a mother, I only want the best for you. Everything I do is for your own good. I will do anything you say. By the way, have you invited Ziana to the engagement party?”

Tenderness flashed through Edison’s face as he heard Ziana’s name.

“Yeah,” he answered softly.

“That’s great. We’ll make her feel at home when she comes,” Princess Lia said, and then she added, “Did you see the video about Boris in the past two days? It has spread all over the world…”

There was no sympathy in her tone. On the contrary, she was gloating. “I didn’t expect him to hurt his head and become like this. Watching the video, he is no different from some mentally challenged people I have seen before. What do you think of this?”

Edison raised his eyebrows casually.

It was the best news!

But he didn’t know if it was true or not, not only him, but even Mr. Collins couldn’t be sure about it.

He didn’t answer Princess Lia directly and said after a while. “He is invited to the engagement party. If he comes, then he’ll get my surprise I prepared for him, and we’ll know if he is really mentally challenged or not after that.”

“I heard that Princess Catherine also invited him.” Princess Lia knew everything that happened in the palace very clearly. “Lewis Company launched several projects in Wesbruck a few months ago, and they all fell into her hands. I reckon that Princess Catherine has already been in cahoots with the Lewis family and is still your biggest competitor.”

“Princess Catherine has worked hard for many years. She has connections as well as power. It is not easy to bring her down.” Edison said flatly, “I will check out the projects she got.”

Princess Lia hooked her lips. “OK. It is natural to encounter some difficulties in their project with Lewis Company after something happened to Boris.”

Edison nodded blankly.

He stared at his cup, but all he could think about was Ziana.

Six o’clock in the morning…

Ziana didn’t get up as usual.

Lillian knocked on the door and got a vague and sleepy response from her. “I don’t want to run today. Let me sleep.”

She actually lay down on the bed before nine o’clock last night to sleep. Although Boris had told her to wait for him, she didn’t want to listen to him.

But after lying down, she tossed and turned and couldn’t fall asleep. All she could think about was what Boris did that day, how he tried to please her and Ewen.

After she finally dozed off, she heard Boris’ voice.

He was babbling about something in front of her door with his deep and sexy voice.

When he finally stopped and left after saying good night, Ziana looked at her watch, and it had already past eleven!

Her biological clock was disrupted, and she couldn’t fall asleep for a while, so she made a fuss in the rebound fellow group and talked with them until midnight. novelbin

That was why she couldn’t open her eyes until now!

Ziana cursed Boris inside, turned over, and fell asleep again.

And Boris was still waiting for her downstairs to run with her.

When he saw Lillian coming down the stairs with a group of maids without Ziana, he stopped Lillian. and asked, “Where’s Ziana?”

Lillian replied honestly, “Miss Scott said she had to sleep in for a while.”

Boris nodded, ran around the villa twice, and came back. As soon as he got back to the room, his phone rang. He picked up the phone, and it was from Nell.

“What’s wrong?” Boris pressed the speakerphone, took off his clothes, and prepared to take a shower.

“Something big happened, Mr. Lewis! This is an emergency!” Nell howled, and Boris’ hands trembled in fright, “What happened? Get to the point!”

“Someone is after Mrs. Lewis again!”

Boris’ face darkened. “Who is that?”

“It’s not one. More than a couple of hundred men!” Nell answered quickly, “Do you still remember Mrs. Lewis’ rebound fellow group?”

“That group chat?” Boris was displeased and sneered. “Isn’t there a lot fewer people now? I thought it had already gone?”

Nell pondered for a second and explained, “You are right. There are not many people in that group chat as before. But there were nearly 1,000 people in that group chat, more than half of those people were kicked out of the group, but there are still more than 300 people now. Since Edison and Mrs. Lewis fell through, that group has become active again.”

Nell investigated the members of the group before and paid a few of them. If anything happened or was said in the group, they would immediately tell Nell about it.

The previous few times, the members of the group were talking about themselves, and Ziana didn’t join their conversation. Yesterday, Ziana was there and chatted until midnight.

The most important thing is that once Ziana said something in the group chat, those men acted so passionate. They sent countless pics in the group chat to win Ziana over with their six-packs and tempting postures. It was like a feast for her eyes.

Even Nell, a straight man, was a little confused now after seeing those pics in the group chat, let alone Ziana.

Boris had been in that group for a while, so he naturally knew what the group chat was like.

His expression shifted instantly. “Send me the chat history. Also, find me a WhatsApp account. I want to join the group.”

Nell did as Boris said.

The chat history was sent to Boris’ phone with a new WhatsApp account in less than two minutes.

The first thing he looked at was the chat history, and his cold expression became thunderous as he finished reading it.

He really wanted Ziana to forget about all that.

He even wanted to make that group chat disappear.

But when he thought of Ziana’s hacking skill, he knew he couldn’t compete with that. In the end, he just logged on to the new WhatsApp account angrily.

He must always be on guard against those shameless men who came to seduce-Ziana.

After Boris took a shower, he freshened up in front of the mirror for a while and then walked to

Ziana’s door.

He was waiting.

Waiting for her to wake up.

She liked to see six-packs and long muscular legs, right?

Then he would wait for her, saving her from watching other disgusting men on the Internet!

Chapter 442 Received an Invitation From the Wesbruck 

At ten o’clock in the morning, Ziana finally got enough sleep and woke up naturally.

She was dazed for a while, then sat up slowly.

Boris heard the noise and knocked on the door.

Ziana thought it was Lillian and responded, “Come on in.”

Boris pushed the door open and went straight to the bedroom.

Ziana frowned as she noticed it was Boris.

“What are you doing here?”

Boris closed the door with a kick, approached her step by step, and stopped about three feet beside the bed.

Ziana looked at him and yelled, “Get out!”

She was still in her pajamas!

It wasn’t appropriate for him to appear here just like that.

Unexpectedly, after she finished her words, Boris suddenly took off his jacket.

His movements were smooth, and he threw his suit away elegantly.

Ziana didn’t understand what he was up to, and asked in a daze, “What are you doing?”

“Don’t you like to watch it?” He lowered his head and unbuttoned his shirt. Then he looked up, fixed his gaze on her, and smiled. “You can watch mine if you want. I think mine is better than theirs!”

“What?” Ziana was dumbfounded. “What are you talking about?”

Boris snorted, ripped his shirt, and the buttons fell on the ground, revealing his firm chest.

Ziana was at a loss for words. She stared at him for a few seconds and screamed, “You are sick! Who would take off their clothes early in the morning?”

Boris took off his shirt quickly, and his entire upper body was in front of Ziana’s eyes.

Ziana’s eyes lit up as she saw the sexy, smooth shoulder line. She was a painter and always appreciated beautiful things.

His neck was also long and powerful, with a protruding sharp Adam’s apple. She looked down and saw his firm pecs.

“Mine looks better, or theirs?” Just as she was looking at it engrossed, a faint voice echoed in her ears.

She came to her senses and saw Boris standing in front of her.

He looked down at her and asked seriously. “Compared with those men in your rebound group, whose body is the best?”

It was a long silence.

Ziana didn’t know how to answer it.

Honestly speaking, Boris’ was the best. There were actually more muscular ones than him in the group chat, but what she appreciated was moderately healthy muscularity.

Boris’ muscles were perfect.

She muttered, “You are so childish.”

“I’m childish?” Boris snorted. “So be it. I don’t care. Just tell me whose body is the best looking?”

Ziana didn’t want to give him the satisfaction he wanted. “Each has its own advantages.”

“Are you sure?” He sat down, grabbed her hand, and pressed it against him, “You can’t tell it by looking at it, but you can tell who is better by touching it.”

“What the…” Ziana stood up immediately and shouted, “Don’t do that, Boris! Behave yourself.”

“Didn’t you say that you like the ones that made the move first in the group chat last night? So I am here. You don’t like it?” Boris touched the quilt meaningfully and pressed it, “Maybe you want me to get in your bed?”

Ziana was resisting touching his muscles while preventing him from lifting her quilt.

“I… Boris! Let me go!” She glared at him angrily, “Let go! What’s wrong with me looking at some handsome guys’ abs and pecs in the group chat? I’m single now. I have every right to look at other men. Who are you to question me? Don’t forget that you are still in the stage of pursuing me. Before you go crazy, ask yourself if you have the right to tell me what to do or be angry and jealous?”

Boris’ clenched her tighter, and his lips moved bitterly. Finally, he took a deep breath and let her go.

Ziana snorted, rubbed her wrist, and shouted, “Get out!”

“I wasn’t telling you what to do.” Boris said humbly, “If you want to watch it in the future, you can tell me. I can show you whenever you want. As I said before, I will serve you anytime, anywhere, as long as you need it.”

Ziana was pissed when she heard these words, “Who do you think you are?”

“It doesn’t matter who do you think I am as long as I can still be by your side. Even if…” He paused, took a deep breath, and said with difficulty, “I don’t mind even if you see me as friends with benefits.”

Ziana was stunned for a long time, then grabbed the pillow and threw it at him, “You are sick! Put on your clothes and get out of my room immediately!”

Boris didn’t say anything this time and left the room after putting on his jacket.

Ziana thought Boris would leave after what happened earlier, but he stayed and acted like nothing. had happened.

During the day, he revolved around Ziana and Ewen, and at night, before going to sleep, he appeared in her room on time.

“I’ll tell you a bedtime story.”

Ziana looked at him. The man’s smile was like a spring breeze, gentle and warm. He didn’t seem to care about what happened in the morning.

She pursed her lips. He reminded her of their love five years ago. When she was pondering about the past, he had already started the bedtime story.

She stopped chasing him and closed her eyes instead.

After Boris finished telling the story, she still hadn’t fallen asleep. He was just sitting by her side, and his voice was deep and sexy and made it difficult for her to fall asleep.

“Ziana,” He called her in a low voice, “The story is over, do you need my sleeping service?”

Ziana coughed out.novelbin

She asked him the same question on the first day they became boyfriend and girlfriend, but he said, “You are still young. So I don’t need it for now.”

She hadn’t expected him to ask the same.

Ziana replied stiffly, “No, no need.”

Boris said regretfully, “OK. Good night then.”

But he didn’t leave after saying good night. Ziana opened her eyes to take a peek, and locked eyes with him.

“Why don’t you leave?” she asked. I’ll leave after you fall asleep.”

“I can’t sleep if you don’t go.” Ziana urged him away. “Get out.”

“Okay.” Boris nodded, leaned over and kiss her on the lips all of a sudden, and whispered in her ear, “Good night.”

It happened so fast, and when Ziana realized it, Boris was looking at her with a satisfied smile on his face.

Ziana gritted her teeth.

What a calculating man!

It seemed he had been behaving like a simp all day because he wanted a bedtime kiss! He always knew what he wanted.

What a jerk!

Ziana rolled her eyes at him and turned around to sleep. Boris smiled slightly and repeated, “Good” night.”

The next day.

Before breakfast, two invitations arrived at the Scott family’s villa.

The invitations were sent from Wesbruck, and they were invitations to Edison’s engagement ceremony. One was for Ziana and the other was for Yudel.

The letter to Yudel was very official. It was normal that Edison invited him because the Scott family had supported him for many years.

However, the invitation to Ziana was quite sincere.

Because it was written by Edison himself.

In the letter, he sincerely apologized, repeatedly asked her to attend, and even mentioned their relationship, saying that they should start well and end well.

Ziana remembered the first time she and Edison met, he saved her and Boris five years ago, just like he was their savior.

That was indeed a good start, and it deserves a good ending.

“The date is only three days away.” Yudel glanced at the time, “I am going to pack my things and take the plane tonight.”

Chapter 443 Also Want to Be His Hero 

Ziana told Boris about the engagement ceremony before leaving for Wesbruck and asked him to stay in the hospital.

Boris had no objection to this and acted very obediently. “OK, honey. I will do whatever you say. Will you miss me?”

“Nope,” Ziana replied coldly.

“It doesn’t matter. I will miss you whether you miss me or not.” Boris still smiled at her.

Ziana couldn’t bear his scorching gaze, so she turned her face away.

At noon that day, Boris left the Scott family’s villa.

As Ziana watched his car get farther and farther from the window, suddenly, she heard a soft teasing sound echoing in her ears. “What? Already missed him?”

Marlyn came over, tilted her neck forward, and added, “He’s gone!”

“Marlyn!” Ziana’s cheeks blushed from her teasing words. “I don’t miss him.”

“OK, OK. Whatever!” Marlyn sighed, “It’s hard to see Mr. Lewis like that in a hundred years. Once he leaves, I don’t know when I’ll see him like this again! By the way…”

She lowered her voice, and bumped her shoulder against hers, and asked, “What’s going on with you and Mr. Lewis?”

“Nothing,” Ziana replied flatly.

“You are not together yet?” Marlyn was puzzled, “Isn’t the misunderstanding resolved?”

Ziana pursed her lips.

There were indeed misunderstandings between her and Boris, but the reason of those misunderstandings was all because of the hypnosis five years ago.

Apart from that hypnosis, there was nothing unforgivable between them.

After three years of marriage, although the hurt was real, she couldn’t blame him when she thought that he was also a victim of hypnosis.

Now she knew that he loved her, that he did everything for her own good, and that everything he had done was to protect her.

She was grateful to him, but blamed him at the same time.

It was not that she didn’t appreciate what he did. It was that she wanted to be on his side and face difficulties together no matter what happened.

Not only did he want to protect the one he loved, but she also wanted to protect the one she cared about. She also wanted to be his support, his most solid backing, and the one that he trusted the most.

She wanted his respect, and that respect included seeing her as an equal who could fight side by side, not just as a baby bird who needed his wings to protect her.

The meaning of love was that she could be his woman or someone who could save him.

It was a pity that Boris knew nothing about that.

He was a big fool.

The engagement ceremony was about to be held in Wesbruck Palace, the Palace has strict vetting of people entering and leaving. As foreign guests, there were also requirements on the number of people

they brought.

Ziana only brought Donald with her this time, left Ewen in Japera City with Nancy, and Yudel brought Gigi with him.

That night, Ziana and Gigi got into the plane to Wesbruck.

Unexpectedly, in the first class, they met Boris.

His seat was next to Ziana’s.

“Honey, what a coincidence.” Boris greeted her, “Are you sitting next to me? I think fate is trying to tell us that we belong together!”

He had never hit on a woman before. Thus, he was a little nervous. Seeing that she was only looking at him in silent, he pulled her over and pressed her on her seat.

“Why are you staring at me? We just separated this morning. You don’t remember me anymore?”

Boris teased.

Ziana was curious. “Why are you here? Didn’t I tell you to go back to the hospital?”

“I want to serve you 24/7. What if you need me for…..” novelbin

Before Boris could finish his words, Ziana covered his mouth, looked at him warningly, and whispered, “There are people around us. Don’t talk nonsense. Why are you here?”

“I was worried that you would run away with someone,” Boris replied.

Ziana glared at him, and he hurriedly told her the truth, “I also got the invitation.”

“You?” Ziana looked at him with confusion. If she remembered it correctly, he was an idiot to the outside world now.

Boris saw what she was baffled, and said with a smile, “I’m afraid everyone wants to see if I’m really become mentally challenges or not.”

Ziana started to ponder.

After six hours of flight, the plane arrived in Wesbruck.

Chapter 444 I Hope the Engagement Goes Well 

For the distinguished guests of the Western Royalty, the Wesbruck sent people to pick them up.

When Ziana got off the plane, she saw neatly lined up bodyguards and luxury cars waiting for them.

“Mr. Scott! Miss Scott! It’s such an honor to meet you both! I am the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Wesbruck. I am very glad and honored to be here with you!” A man in a black suit stepped forward and warmly extended his hand to them.

Ziana nodded to him and Yudel shook hands with him lightly and said politely, “Thank you for the effort.”

“It’s nothing.” The foreign minister looked thrilled and complimented relentlessly, “I was so excited when I heard I am the one who welcomed you here. I couldn’t fall asleep for several days!! have seen you on TV before, but I didn’t expect the meet you in person. You are much more elegant than that.”

For the members of the Scott family, good looks were the least worth-mentioning advantage.

Yudel pushed up his glasses and responded, “Thank you, Minister.”

“You are too modest, Mr. Scott. I’m just telling the truth.” The minister wanted to say more, but he stopped as he saw Boris shrugging his shoulders and looking around from the corner of his eyes. The smile froze on the man’s face instantly. “You took the same plane with Mr. Lewis?” he asked.

Yudel and Ziana turned their heads, and they were silent for an instant.

Boris, who was normal on the plane, seemed to be a different person now.

He looked like a thief who had entered someone else’s house. He was timid, his two long and beautiful legs were trembling, and he couldn’t even stand upright. Then he sobbed and shouted, “I want to go home. I want to find my wife. Where is my wife. Give me back my wife!”

Ziana was stunned.

He was fine a few minutes ago, and now he was pretending that he was really mentally challenged?

“Did Mr. Lewis act like this on the plane?” The Minister of Foreign Affairs groped for words for a while and asked Yudel and Ziana.

Ziana and Yudel didn’t respond, which, in the eyes of the foreign minister, was a yes.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs looked at Boris, who was screaming strangely, and thought of Boris’ thunderous tactics and heroic demeanor in the past, and mixed feelings flooded his heart.

He couldn’t help heaving a long sigh. “Mr. Lewis suffered too much, in fact, I’m afraid anyone would not be able to accept it. He and Miss Colin were a perfect couple, but now they are separated forever.

Speaking of which, it’s all Miss Colin’s fault. Just like the saying, you can’t judge a person only by appearance. Miss Colin really surprised me!

It’s a pity that a genius like Mr. Lewis has become like this!”

Before he could finish expressing his emotions, there was a sudden commotion behind him.

In the chaos, someone shouted, “Mr. Lewis!”

In the next second…

Everyone saw Boris sitting on the ground, crying loudly.

“I want to go home! I want to find my wife! My wife! I love her so much! Don’t leave me! How can I live without you? Come back!”

Ziana was shocked.

Because the Minister of Foreign Affairs was here to pick up esteemed guests from another country, thus, there were many presses waiting to take pictures.

Boris was a hot topic before he became “mentally challenged”, and most of the presses came here especially for him. Seeing this, they all raised their cameras and took pictures non-stop.

Although Boris acting like that wouldn’t affect the Minister of Foreign Affairs, but he was afraid Boris would say something stupid or inappropriate and stop him.

“Mr. Lewis!” He smiled obsequiously as if coaxing a child, “Your wife is here, sir. Shall we go find her?”

Boris looked up at him, and in the next second, he stood up. “OK! Take me to her! Let’s find my wife!”

The Minister of Foreign Affairs nodded repeatedly. “Okay! As long as you follow us, we will definitely take you to see her!”

Boris clapped his hands and urged, “Let’s go then! I want to see my wife!”

After the Minister of Foreign Affairs talked Boris into finding his “wife,” he turned to Ziana and Yudel and continued, “Let’s go, Mr. and Miss Scott.”

All the guests invited by the Western Royalty lived in the luxurious guest house that was only one street away from the Wesbruck Palace.

The rooms of Ziana, Yudel and Boris were all arranged on the same floor.

The foreign minister lied to Boris that he would be able to see his wife when he fell asleep and opened his eyes and put him in his room.

Then he led Ziana and Yudel to their rooms respectively.

Considering they left at night and arrived at Wesbruck in the early morning, he told them to have a good rest and then left the guest house. novelbin

As soon as the foreign minister left, there was a knock on the door of Ziana’s room.

Boris stood at the door, looking at her with his watery eyes.

When Ziana was about to close the door, he stopped her with his arm, then squeezed into the room.

Then he walked to her, making her took a few steps back.

“Didn’t I tell you to go to sleep?” She looked at the tall and muscular man in front of her, and her gaze fixed on his legs.

At this moment, he was standing straight, and his legs weren’t trembling.

Thinking of his exaggerated performance, Ziana couldn’t help but chuckle.

Boris followed her gaze and teased her, “Can you enjoy just watching them like this? Do you want me to take it off for you?”

Ziana coughed softly, “Answer me. What are you doing here? You should be sleeping.”

“Looking for my wife, remember? The minister said my wife is here. So I am here to check it out.”

“Your wife is in your dreams. Just go to sleep, and you can get anything in your dreams.”

“Really?” Boris leaned over slightly, the tip of his nose almost touching her face, and he looked straight at her. “But I think you are my wife? You look a lot like her!”

After he finished speaking, he suddenly grabbed her slender waist with both hands and lifted her

Ziana was startled and naturally wrapped her legs around his waist.

A triumphant smile broke across Boris’ face. He put his right hand on her curvy butt and strode towards the bed with her in his arms.

He put her on the bed and leaned over to look at her.

Her cheeks were flushed, her eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes reminded him of the most beautiful lake in the world, shimmering and full of life, filled with her unspeakable affection toward him.

“The more I look, the more you look like my wife.” He let go of her, lifted the quilt, and covered her -up with it. “You must be tired after sitting on the plane all night. Get a good night’s sleep first.”

“What about you?” Ziana was really sleepy.

“I’ll be here.” He lay down on the remaining half of the bed next to her and continued, “Don’t drive me away, and I won’t leave even if you wanted me to. We are in another country. I have to keep a close eye on you. I will be devastated if you run away with someone.”

Ziana mumbled. “I am not going to run away.”

“Of course, you won’t when I stay with you here. But what if you see that temptress and decide to run off with him?” Boris snorted, his tone full of contempt.

“You mean Edison?” Ziana was speechless about his nickname for Edison.

“Who else could it be?” Boris pursed his lips, “You just like that kind, don’t you?”

Ziana kicked him, “He’s about to get engaged. Why should I run away with him?”

“I’m afraid that he won’t give up on you, and I will be relieved if he gets engaged as soon as possible.” Boris raised his chin at her, then continued, “Are you going to lie down and sleep by yourself, or should

I help you with it?”

Ziana raised her hands and surrendered. “I’ll do it myself.”

The two of them slept until afternoon.

After waking up, the guest house staff informed them that the engagement ceremony would be held in the Wesbruck Palace at 6:00 pm, and they were expected to be there on time.


Chapter 445 Kill That Bastard 

It was three o’clock in the afternoon. The manner was required for a royal banquet.

One had to dress up, but there were only three hours left, and the time was so tight.

Fortunately, Ziana was rich. Money could help one do anything in this world.

She planned to hire a professional styling team after the staff left.

Unexpectedly, she received a call from Edison.

Edison was as gentle and warm as ever. “Ziana, I have sent a styling team over. Just leave everything to them.”

Ziana frowned and politely refused, “Thank you, but I have a team, and they know me and my needs better.”

After a moment of silence, Edison said, “Okay, if you need any help, call me any time. You’re my guest since you came to Wesbruck. I will take good care of you. I hope you won’t misunderstand me. Although we can’t be lovers, we can still be friends, can’t we?”

“I know, but I can take care of myself,” Ziana said politely, “Thank you, I am a little bit busy now. I have to go.”

-“Okay,” Edison said with a bitter smile, “Then see you tonight.”

Ziana hung up, and suddenly heard Boris’ voice, “You did a good job, honey. I like your cold attitude. You should keep a distance from a married man. You can’t give him any hope.

“Honey, what you did just now is perfect, except for one thing. Do you know what it is?”

Ziana didn’t want to talk to Boris and didn’t answer, but Boris looked at Ziana and insisted on asking her to answer, which was quite creepy.

“What?” She compromised and replied shortly.

Boris immediately reached out to her, “Give me your phone.”

“Why?”

Boris urged Ziana, “Hurry up.”

Ziana handed Boris the phone in doubt, and saw Boris blocked Edison’s number quickly.

Ziana was speechless.

However, Boris was satisfied and spoke excitedly, “For a man, as long as you don’t block him, you are interested in him. I am a man, so I know men best. He will get married soon. A man should only be around his wife at this time, but he called you, which is enough to explain one thing.”

“He’s a jerk! A jerk like him deserves to be blocked.”

Ziana was impressed by Boris’ logic, but when she saw his righteous but handsome face, she found it quite cute, so she didn’t say anything.

Five o’clock at night.

Ziana held the hem of her evening dress, stepped on crystal high-heeled shoes, walked out of the room, and saw the man waiting in the corridor.

Under the dim light, the man was tall, with wide shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs, which was the perfect figure.

He was wearing a silver-gray suit today, with a hint of arrogance and aloofness in his aura of extravagance.

He seemed to be thinking something. Probably because of the noise, he turned his head slightly and looked at her casually.

He was observing Ziana with a distant expression.

Under such gaze, Ziana felt that her breathing became unstable.

Next second.

The man stood up straight and walked leisurely to Ziana with his long legs. He looked at her condescendingly, and said softly, “Honey.”

The voice was bewitching, and the eyes were so tender.

Ziana suspected that he would strip her naked at any time.

“Boris,” Ziana suddenly became nervous and said, “You…what are you doing?”

Boris leaned over slightly and stared at Ziana. “I want to kiss you. Can I?”

Ziana blushed suddenly. “Nope.”

“Okay, forget about it.” After that, Boris hooked Ziana’s slender waist, held her chin, and kissed her.

It was a deep kiss.

Ziana felt her body become soft because of the kiss. She leaned on Boris and patted him, “I said no.”

“I didn’t ask anything,” Boris denied, “Anyway, you won’t be able to tell me what I like, so it’s better not to ask.”

“Boris!” Ziana glared at Boris fiercely, “Shameless!”

Boris nodded obediently. “I like whatever you say. But the banquet is about to start, do you want to continue scolding me, or go to the banquet with me? I’m not in a hurry, anyway, because I’m a retard.”

“I’m going to be late. I have to go.” Ziana held up the hem of her dress and attempted to leave, but she was stopped by Boris again. “Your lipstick was gone because of the kiss. Go back to your room and fix it. I’ll wait for you.”

It was a tradition in Western Royalty to hold a banquet the night before the engagement.

In name, it was a party for relatives and friends to have fun, but in fact, it had long since become a vanity fair for power and wealth.

Ziana was supported by Yudel. When she came to the banquet, all she could see was the fragrance of clothes, the beauty of jewels, and wealthy and noble guests.

A waiter came with several glasses of champagne. Yudel took two glasses and handed one of them. to Ziana.

At this moment, a familiar gentle voice suddenly came from behind.

“Ziana!”

Ziana and Yudel turned their heads at the same time.

Edison was wearing a black suit and a bow tie of the same color, walking towards them with a smile.

The shining light and shadow made the little cinnabar mole at the end of his eye look even more charming.

He quickly came to the front and greeted them, “Mr. Scott, Ziana, I’m very glad that you two can come.”

Yudel clinked wine glasses with Edison, “Congratulations, Prince Edison.”

Ziana also said politely, “Congratulations.”

Edison’s expression froze. He smiled bitterly while raising his glass to her and drank it in one gulp.

Ziana’s attitude was obvious. Edison saw that Ziana didn’t want to talk to him too much, so he chatted with Yudel.

Edison and Yudel had been in contact with each other a lot in the past five years, so the atmosphere soon became relaxed.

Ziana was not interested in the banquet and didn’t want to move around, so she just stood by Edison and Yudel.

Both Edison and Yudel were good at conversation. What they talked about was interesting and humorous, and even Ziana laughed from time to time.

“I can barely see her eyes after she saw that bastard.” Boris sat on the chair, his eyes sharp, “At most five more minutes, or I will kill that bastard.”

He bent his arms, saw the bulging muscles, and then looked at Edison with a fierce expression.

Bastard!

If you don’t leave her, I will kick your ass!

Boris stared at the watch and started counting.

One minute.

Two minutes.

Suddenly!

From the corner of his eye, he saw Winifred who was surrounded by maids, and his expression suddenly became solemn.

He squinted, and then saw Winifred staring at Ziana and Edison, her face with heavy makeup immediately filled with anger.


Chapter 446 Boris Protects His Wife 

“Why did she come?” Winifred asked angrily.

The maid was terrified, and replied with a teary voice, “It’s… Prince Edison invited her.”

Winifred clenched her fingers tightly, watching Edison and Ziana talking and laughing in the distance, and felt extremely jealous.

Edison had never smiled at Winifred like this before!

Never!

She knew Edison didn’t like her, but she didn’t care. They were getting engaged, and she would never allow anyone to destroy it.

Even the daughter of the Scott Company.

“Ziana!” Winifred suddenly said in a vicious voice, which shocked everyone. All the guests looked over in surprise.

Winifred rushed to Ziana and raised her hand.

“Oh my god!”.

Everyone exclaimed.

Next second.

Ziana stepped back quickly, so Winifred missed.

Winifred became even angrier. Noticing that there was a sparkling swimming pool behind Ziana, Winifred pushed Ziana hard with all her strength.

Winifred succeeded this time.

Ziana didn’t expect this and fell into the water.

“Ziana!”

Yudel hurriedly jumped into the swimming pool.

Within a few minutes, he supported Ziana and quickly brought her up.

Edison hurried up with a bath towel and handed it to Yudel and Ziana. “Here you go.”

However, Ziana slammed the towel onto the ground, pushed Edison away, and went straight to Winifred.

Seeing this, Winifred yelled, “What are you doing?”

“Ziana!” Edison chased after Ziana and grabbed her wrist. “Calm down. There are too many people here. What if they…”

“Let me go,” Ziana warned in a low voice.

Edison said earnestly, “Ziana, I’m doing it for your own good. I didn’t stop you from talking to her, but it’s better to solve it in private. This is Wesbruck, and her father is Duke Bourne. Even my father has to respect her. It’s not a wise choice to offend her in front of so many guests.”

“Let me go,” Ziana repeated with a cold expression.

Edison didn’t say a word, but his attitude was stubborn. “Ziana.”

Ziana suddenly got rid of him and rushed to Winifred and grabbed Winifred’s arm.

“Ah!”

Winifred cried out in pain, “Edison, I can’t move my arm. What did she do to me?”

“The last time you pushed me downstairs, and this time you pushed me into the swimming pool. Since your hands are rebellious, I’ll help you get rid of them,” Ziana said coldly.

“Ahhh!” Winifred screamed, “Ziana, I will make you pay the price!”

“Winifred!” Edison stopped Winifred, “Enough, it was your fault. It was you who pushed Miss Scott into the swimming pool first. Apologize to Miss Scott, now.”

“I don’t want it.” Winifred gritted her teeth and said, “Why should I apologize? She seduced you in front of so many people. We’re getting engaged. You… ah!”

As Winifred spoke, a person suddenly approached. She turned her head and saw Boris.

Winifred was subconsciously afraid of Boris. She remembered that Boris was the one, who asked someone to push her downstairs last time on the island.

She still could not help trembling when she thought of this. novelbin

Edison was not happy to see Boris either. Frowning, he said, “Mr. Lewis.”

Boris smiled suddenly, and the next second, he raised his foot and kicked Winifred hard.

“Ah!” Winifred slammed into the water, gulped down a few mouthfuls of water, and yelled, “Edison, help me!”

“Hahaha! It’s fun!” Boris stood on the shore, clapping his hands and laughing. “It’s so fun!”

Chapter 447 Did You Relieve Your Anger? 

Edison was so angry, and he scolded in a low voice, “Mr. Lewis!”

Boris tilted his head to look at it, his long and narrow eyes were full of doubts at the moment, “What happen? Do you want to play too?”

“Ah!” He rubbed his hands excitedly, “Pick your butt, I’ll satisfy you!”

After speaking, he raised his leg and kicked Edison.

Unexpectedly, Edison dodged sideways, and he missed it.

Boris was unhappy, blew his beard and stared angrily, and cried like a child, “What are you doing! I won’t play with you!”

“Mr. Lewis!” Edison’s temples twitched.

“Ahhh!” Boris howled sadly, “You are a bad guy, I won’t play with you.”

“Mr. Lewis! That’s enough! Stop it!” Edison was annoyed by the noise, so he raised his voice. novelbin

Boris also raised his voice, and said louder, “Ahhh…”

Edison’s gentle and handsome face suddenly turned white and blue..

He stared at him with calm eyes. At this moment, a female voice approached from far away.

“Edison, don’t argue with Mr. Lewis! Everyone knows that he is stupid. Are you stupid too?”

Catherine scolded displeased.

She stood between them, looked at Boris, and comforted him, “Mr. Lewis, it’s okay. Your wife is looking for you, Have a look.”

“My wife?” Boris immediately stopped crying, and asked eagerly, “Where is she?”

Catherine coaxed him, “The maid knows, let her take you there.”

“Okay!” Boris yelled, “Wife! I am going to find my wife!”

After coaxing Boris away, Catherine turned to Edison, frowned, and taught him a lesson, “Mr. Lewis is a guest, and he has a problem with his mind. Is this your way of hospitality? You are getting engaged. This is a happy event. Happy events need to be handled with patience.”

Edison nodded, “You are right, but it’s hard for me to calm down as long as it’s about Winifred.”

‘I know that you care about Winifred, it’s understandable that you will cause chaos.” Catherine said, looking at Ziana, “Are you okay, Miss Scott?”

Ziana hooked her lips and said, “I want to change clothes.”

Her body was soaked, and the tailored skirt tightly wrapped her, revealing her graceful and seductive figure.

Although she was wearing a bath towel, it was sticky to her body, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

“Take Miss Scott to change clothes!” Catherine ordered coldly.

Ziana thanked her and left behind the maid. When passing by Edison, she didn’t give an extra look.

“Cough…”

At this moment, Winifred was picked up.

She looked embarrassed. She trembled, and her lips became purple. She said tremblingly, “Cold. Edison, I’m so cold…”

Edison no longer looked at Ziana, and finally looked away reluctantly, “Ok.”

“Edison…” Winifred staggered and rushed towards him.

In front of so many people, Edison helped her with a cold face, “Ask someone to take you to change. clothes, don’t catch a cold.”

Winifred pursed her mouth pitifully, “No, I want you to go with me…”

Edison thought for a while, and said softly, “Ok.”

A farce came to an end. The parties involved left, and the rest of the people gathered together and discussed endlessly.

Ziana was taken away from the banquet by the maids. They passed through two palace gates and stopped in front of a palace.

The maid took her into the palace. There were many rooms on the first floor.

The maid led her to a room and said, “Miss Scott, this is the changing room of Princess Catherine. You can change it here. There are many new clothes. You can choose by yourself. I’ll be waiting for you outside. If you need anything, just call me.”

Ziana nodded, “Say thank you to her for me.”

She had almost no contact with Western Royalty and was even more unfamiliar with Catherine. Today, she took the initiative to help, which surprised her.

The maid smiled mysteriously, “Okay, Miss Scott, please go inside.”

Ziana nodded and pushed the door. Suddenly, a hand stretched out from inside and fished her in.

“Ah…”

“Sh!” Her eyes were covered with big palms, and strong male hormones came from her. The felt was clear, domineering, and familiar.

Ziana said firmly, “Boris?”

“Honey.” He said quietly, his tone was not serious, “Why did you break into my room?”

Ziana thought for a moment, “Catherine is your friend?”

No wonder how she had no relationship with Catherine, but stand up for her today and especially send a servant to bring her here.

“You are so smart.” He looked at her lips, his throat was a little dry. But he saw her soaked clothes, those charming thoughts disappeared instantly.

Boris released her, and said in a warm voice, “Take a hot shower, don’t catch a cold.”

Ziana didn’t flirt with him either, she wouldn’t take her body for granted. She picked a suit from a pile of clothes and obediently went into the bathroom.

She took a bath for half an hour and didn’t turn off the water until her body became hot.

Unexpectedly, the bathroom door rang in the next second.

“Knock, knock.”

Boris’ voice followed closely, “Did you finish it?”

Ziana was startled, and said angrily and amusedly, “Who let you stay at the door?”

“I made it myself.” He replied confidently, “Honey, I don’t have clairvoyant eyes, and I can’t see anything through a door.”

Ziana gritted her teeth, “What else do you want to see?”

“What do you mean?” He asked meaningfully.

Ziana was angry. Why didn’t she find out that he was so perverted before?

Because he was guarding the door, Ziana was much faster than usual, and it was done in a few minutes. When she walked out, her hair was still dripping.

Boris frowned dissatisfiedly, and followed behind with a hair dryer, “So why are you in a hurry? Come and blow dry your hair.”

“It just blew.”

“But it was wet.” Boris said domineeringly, “Did you come here by yourself, or did I arrest you?”

Ziana glanced at him, and sat on the sofa, “Blow it.”

Seeing that she didn’t refuse, Boris raised his eyebrows proudly.

While blowing her hair, he said, “Stay away from Edison in the future, it will never be a good thing to meet him. There are many innocent disasters you have suffered because of him.”

Ziana was annoyed, she glared at him angrily and said, “I didn’t provoke him today.”

“Yes, you didn’t provoke him, you just talked to him and smiled at him.” Boris was jealous.

“That’s just basic politeness. Yudel is talking to him. Besides, should I cry at the party?”

“You can keep a straight face and roll your eyes at him.” Boris actively suggested, “If you want to cry, you can also cry when you see him.”

“I’m not stupid or crazy.” Ziana blurted out. Thinking of his pretending to be crazy just now, she chuckled, and her mood was not so depressed, “He is getting engaged tomorrow, we will leave after the engagement banquet. There won’t be so many intersections in the future. I felt happy when you kick Winifred down!”

“Did you relieve your anger?” Boris rubbed her head with a smile, and said dotingly, “That’s good.”

His big palm slowly descended, pinching her neck, and making her face him.

“Boris…” Ziana whispered when she saw his deep eyes.

At this moment, a maid’s voice suddenly sounded outside, “Miss Scott, have you changed yet? Prince Edison come to see you.”

Chapter 448 A Suspicious Affair 

“Him. Not again.” Boris fumed upon hearing the news. “Does he have no shame? He kept saying he liked you and even provoked me to my face. But just now, he gave up on you for Winifred. Humph! I bet he’s here to apologize to you.”

Ziana’s expression soured.

She had once harbored a crush on Edison, as she did with every handsome man she met.

But her fondness for him gradually faded as their relationship progressed and his actions repeatedly disappointed her.

Now, she regarded him as nothing more than an ordinary friend.

If it weren’t for his heartfelt letter and the fact that he had saved her and Boris five years ago, she wouldn’t have bothered coming to Wesbruck.

“Do you want to listen to his nonsense?” Boris urged her. “Have someone drive him away.”

The maid didn’t receive a response, so she asked again, “Miss Scott?”

“You may leave,” Ziana said quietly. “There is no point meeting me. Prince Edison should go see his fiancée.”

“Ziana!” Edison’s voice suddenly rose from outside. “Ziana, I’m here to apologize on her behalf. Please let me in! I have so much to say to you.”

“But I have nothing to say to you,” Ziana replied impatiently.

“Ziana! I know you’re angry with me, but please hear me out. You won’t let me in? Fine, I’ll wait. here all day if I have to. You’ll have to come out eventually. I just want to explain,” Edison pleaded stubbornly.

Boris sneered, “Don’t let him in. Let him wait outside like the mangy dog he is.”

“Ziana!” Edison continued to shout from outside.

Ziana worried that if he kept shouting like this, someone would eventually hear and word would reach Winifred’s ears, causing her to fly into another rage.

“I’m really scared!” she exclaimed in distress. “We don’t want to provoke that lunatic.”

She grabbed Boris and shoved him into the wardrobe, “Get in there! Don’t let him see you!”

Everyone knew that Boris was unhinged, and it seemed he didn’t want anyone to find out that he was faking it.

Edison knew about their past. If he saw Boris here, he might figure out something.

The wardrobe was packed with clothes, and Boris barely fit inside.

Leaning against the closet, Boris looked at Ziana with a mischievous glint in his eyes and quipped, “Isn’t this like…”

Ziana was puzzled. “Like what?”

Boris gave her a wink. “Cheating.”

Ziana was taken aback by his audacity and shot him a fiery glare, “Stay put, and don’t come out!”

“Ten minutes.” He clasped her wrist and said, “You have ten minutes to send him away, or I’ll jump out.”

Ziana knew she couldn’t afford to waste any time chatting with Edison. He was already engaged, and his fiancée was possessive and prone to jealousy. She didn’t want anything to do with that woman.

“Okay,” she muttered hastily, “now let go.”

“Kiss me.”

After planting a quick kiss on his lips, she wiped her mouth clean, shut the cabinet door, and reminded him, “Don’t make a sound.”

Boris let out a chuckle as he watched her leave through the narrow gap.

Edison was standing outside. “Ziana!”.

“Come in,” she said coldly. “You have five minutes.” novelbin

Edison followed her inside, looking apologetic. “I’m so sorry, Ziana. I didn’t know Winifred would do that. She’s always been arrogant and temperamental, but this time she went too far. She shouldn’t have dragged you into this. Are you hurt?”

“Four minutes,” Ziana reminded him, sitting down on the sofa with a stony expression.

Edison fidgeted nervously. “I’m really sorry, Ziana. I really didn’t expect that. I know you’re angry, and I apologize to you on her behalf. I hope you’ll forgive her.”

“There’s no need to apologize.” Ziana snorted dismissively, “I don’t accept it. It won’t change what happened. Apologies can’t make up for the pain. You have three minutes left. If you continue to say such nonsense, you can leave now.”

“Ziana,” Edison spoke softly, “you gotta believe me that I will never hurt you.

“Anything else?”

“Ziana, please don’t push me away. You can pour out your grievances to me.” He sat down and said

gently, “If you’re angry, vent on me. If my apology is not enough, you can hit me.”

As Edison spoke, he took a step forward, reaching out to grab Ziana’s hand.

However, Ziana swiftly dodged and knocked over the coffee on the table, spilling it all over Edison’s clothes.

“Ziana…”

Ziana snorted, “What are you doing?”

“I just want to make it up to you.”

“Okay, fine. You want to make it up to me?” Ziana lost her patience, “Then stay away from me and don’t come back. If your fiancée finds out about this, she’ll make things difficult for me. You’re getting married soon, so act like it. If you keep acting like this, it makes me sick!”

Edison hung his head in shame, his shoulders shaking.

But suddenly, he grinned and spoke in a low voice. “So, when I pester you while engaged, you find it disgusting. But when Boris used to pester you while he was with Vivi, you didn’t find him. disgusting. Why is that? Because you like him that you can forgive him no matter what he does?”

“I find him disgusting too!” Ziana retorted immediately. “Now get out of here!”

“Ziana!”

“Leave!”

Edison pursed his lips and took a deep breath. “Sorry, I need to use the bathroom.”

Without waiting for her response, he went to the bathroom and quickly locked the door.

Ziana had just had a shower, and the bathroom was steamy,

Edison looked around and spotted some of her hair lying on the floor.

He picked up several strands and wrapped them carefully in the tissue before slipping the bundle into his pocket.

After washing his hands, he opened the door and walked out.

Ziana remained seated on the sofa, refusing to look at him.

Edison nodded at her. “Ziana, I know you’re still angry right now. But when your anger subsides, I’ll come back to make it up to you.”

Ziana didn’t respond.

Edison cast a final glance at her before turning on his heel and striding out of the room.

He kept a watchful eye on the contents of his pockets as he made his way out. Only when he had put some distance between himself and the palace did he make a call.

“I got it.”

Chapter 449 Courting Her Just to Use Her 

The person on the other end of the line said something, and Edison’s expression grew stern.

He scanned his surroundings to ensure he was alone before lowering his voice. “Are you in Wesbruck? Where are you? I’ll come to find you now.”

30 minutes later, Edison returned to his palace.

As he entered the living room, he spotted a man in a suit and leather shoes sitting on the sofa.

The man, who had his back to Edison, was preened. Upon hearing Edison’s entrance, he turned his head and flashed a smile.

Edison studied him.

The man had a slender face, piercing eyes, and a straight nose. He appeared to be in his fifties but was well-preserved, with nary a wrinkle on his face.

More than a decade had passed, yet it seemed as though nothing had changed.

“It’s been so long. Don’t tell me you don’t recognize me?” The man’s voice was calm and composed, his eagle-like eyes shining bright.

Edison returned the smile. “Uncle Collins.”

“Who is Uncle Collins?” The man shook his head. “My name is Pablo Davidson now. I’m the owner of Davidson Construction. From now on, you can call me Uncle Pablo.”

Edison was taken aback for a moment before a knowing smile spread across his lips. “So, Davidson Construction belongs to you.’

He had rescued Ziana five years ago, and in return, the Scott family had thrown their support behind him in Wesbruck, engaging in extensive cooperation with him.

These cooperative companies had generated substantial GDP, allowing him to hold his head high within the Western Royalty.

Among them stood Davidson Construction, a towering company that rivaled none other than the Scott family’s industries.

The mere mention of its name evoked awe and admiration. The reason for this was simple. He had never met the owner of the company, yet the man had chosen to cooperate with them.

Even when faced with more attractive offers from the other royal family themselves, Davidson Construction turned them down without hesitation.

Edison remembered how he had longed to meet Davidson Construction’s boss many times before, but each time he tried, the man would prevaricate with various excuses.

Finally, he understood why.

Pablo clearly didn’t want to talk about work anymore. He sized Edison up a few times before asking directly, “What about the things I asked you to get?”

“Here.” Edison, who was thinking about the same thing, quickly took out a wad of tissues from his pocket. He presented it carefully to Pablo, “Uncle Collins, I mean, Uncle Pablo, her hair is inside. Do you want to take a look?”

Pablo nodded, took the wad of tissues, and placed it in his pocket. He then stood up and declared,

“I’ve got what I needed. I’ll be going now.”

“Wait!” Edison stopped him nervously. “Why do you need Ziana’s hair? How will it help me? Does this have anything to do with getting her back?”

“Of course, it does,” Pablo replied with a strange smile. “But I can’t tell you yet.”

Edison pursed his lips, hesitating.

Pablo patted him on the shoulder. “Don’t worry. I will help you get her back.”

“What do I need to do?” Edison asked eagerly.

Pablo paused for a moment, deep in thought. “There is something you could try. Have you sounded Boris out?”

“No, I can’t see any flaws. Did you catch what happened at the banquet today?” Edison’s stunning face took on a look of irritation at the mention of Boris.

Pablo chuckled. “I did. He seems like a real fool. Might as well let him help you one more time before he kicks the bucket.”

“What do you mean?” Edison was puzzled.

Pablo leaned in and whispered something in Edison’s ear. As he pulled back, he raised an eyebrow. “Can it be done?”

Edison drew in a deep breath, his eyes resolute. “I’ll make the arrangements.”

Pablo waved his hand and sauntered out of the palace.

Edison sat in his chair for a while before making a call. “Prepare something for me.”

Once everything was in order, Edison washed his face and left the palace to return to the banquet.

The festivities were still in full swing. He had made up an excuse to come out, and Winifred was still in the changing room.

But not long after leaving the palace, he ran into Winifred, who was hurrying to find him.

“Edison!” she exclaimed upon seeing him, her eyes lighting up with joy.

She trotted over to him and grabbed his arm. “Didn’t you say you were going out for some fresh air? Why did you come here? This is practically your palace!”

As she spoke, her eyes darted around as if searching for someone.

Edison noticed her furtive movements and sneered inwardly. “I had something to take care of,” he said flatly.

“Oh.” Winifred sounded only half-convinced. “Are you here to see someone?”

Edison turned his head to look at her but said nothing.

Winifred felt a shiver run down her spine at his gaze, but the jealousy and suspicion in her heart only grew stronger.

She hadn’t forgotten that when Boris had kicked her into the swimming pool earlier, Edison had still been thinking about Ziana.

He had said he was going to change his clothes, but in the blink of an eye he had vanished, only to reappear here.

“Edison! Are you here to see Ziana?” Winifred finally asked. “We’re getting engaged, remember? You promised my father that you’d marry me. If you dare to break your promise, you’ll get nothing in the end!”

Edison sneered, “Yes, I came to see Ziana. But if you don’t provoke her, do I need to apologize to her?”

Winifred’s face twisted into a scowl. “If you hadn’t talked to her and smiled at her, I wouldn’t have made things difficult for her.”

Edison retorted, “What do you mean? I can’t smile at her or talk to her anymore?”

“No!” Winifred gritted her teeth. “Everyone knows you like her. When you talk to her, do you even think of me?”

Edison frowned. “Who said I like her?”

Winifred was stunned. “What do you mean?”

“I don’t like her.” He would cut off ties with her tomorrow anyway. Now he just wanted her to stop bothering him, so he said in a cold voice, “I courted her just to use her, to win the support of the Scott family and ascend the throne.”

Winifred’s face lit up with delight. “Are you serious?”

“Believe it or not,” Edison replied dryly, noticing her expression. He left her with those words and headed toward the banquet hall.

Winifred hurriedly said, “I believe you. Edison, wait for me! Don’t worry, once you marry me, I will have my father help you. He will definitely help you to ascend the throne! At that time, you will be the king of Wesbruck, and I will be the queen!”

The banquet continued into the late night.

Because of his words, Winifred trailed after Edison all night like a lovesick puppy, clinging to his arm as if her life depended on it.

The guests couldn’t help but comment on their closeness, teasing and making fun of them toward the end of the banquet.

Winifred was elated. Finally, as the night wore on, she still clung to Edison’s arm.

“It’s late, go back and rest,” he told Winifred quietly. “There’s an engagement banquet tomorrow morning.”

“Okay! I’ll be in my best shape.” Winifred pouted and said, “But you have to walk me back.”

Edison complied, escorting her back to her quarters before returning to his palace where Jackson was dozing off, his head bobbing slightly.

“Did you find the thing?” he asked sharply, causing Jackson to jump up in terror and shake off his drowsiness. “Edison, you’re back!”

“Yeah.” Edison slumped into a chair, looking exhausted, “Where’s the stuff?”

“I gave it to the person like you told me to,” Jackson reported. “But are you sure about this? Once you do it, you can’t turn back.”

“I’ve thought it through.”

Edison took a deep breath, a hint of malice glinting in his eyes.

Chapter 450 Catching Him in Bed 

The next day.

The engagement part was thrown.

Winifred woke up early, determined to look her best for the occasion.

The maids bustled in, ready to help her get dressed.

“Where’s Edison?” Winifred looked around anxiously, but Edison was nowhere to be seen. Frustrated, she snapped at a servant, “Go and fetch him. I need him to help me with my makeup.”

The maid hurried off to Edison’s palace.

He was already awake. He got the message and hummed indifferently.

He couldn’t muster any enthusiasm for the engagement ceremony. He looked down at the maid and said, “You know what to do.”

“Yes,” the maid said respectfully, “Rest assured, Prince Edison. I’ll take care of it.”

Edison closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, they were filled with unconcealable coldness and ridicule. “Let’s go and meet my fiancée.”

When he arrived, Winifred had just started applying her makeup.

She was overjoyed to see Edison, and she chattered excitedly, pulling him into a conversation.

Edison answered politely, but he didn’t initiate any conversation.

Winifred didn’t notice, though. She was too caught up in the moment, relishing the rare chance to spend time with her fiancé.

Two hours later, Winifred wanted Edison to join her for breakfast, but Jackson interrupted, saying that they had to prepare for the party. “Duke Bourne has arrived and wishes to speak with you.”

“Go ahead,” Winifred smiled upon hearing the arrival of her father, “don’t keep him waiting.”

“Okay,” Edison said gently. “Enjoy your meal.”

“I will,” Winifred said sweetly.

As he walked away, he shot a glance at the maid beside her, who promptly left the room. Not long after, the maid returned with breakfast.

The makeup artist and stylist departed one by one until only Winifred remained in the room.

The maid placed the food on the table one by one and urged Winifred to eat. “Miss, it’s time to eat! His Highness hopes you’ll like it.”

Winifred’s heart fluttered at Edison’s care for her.

She smiled sweetly and replied, “Okay.”

The maid served her a bowl of porridge, which she quickly devoured. But within ten minutes, there was a loud thud.

Winifred slumped forward onto the table, unconscious.

The maid immediately checked on her and confirmed her condition before picking her up and carrying her out of the room.

Despite his humble background, Edison had become a prominent figure in recent years and was highly valued by the Western Royalty. This was reflected in the many guests who attended the engagement banquet he hosted.

Standing at the door, Edison greeted each guest personally.

From a distance, Duke Bourne watched him critically but helplessly.

He didn’t have a good impression of Edison due to his background.

Nevertheless, his only daughter had fallen madly in love with him. There were so many princes in the Western Royalty, yet she only had eyes for him.

The duke could do nothing about it.

Winifred was spoiled and willful, and he doted on her. He didn’t want to make her unhappy, so he could only grant her wish.

It was fine. Given the momentum, Edison would have a bright future as long as he helped him at little.

Duke Bourne sighed and suddenly caught Boris appearing at the door.

He hadn’t attended the banquet the night before, Boris’ outbursts had become the talk of the town.

Duke Bourne knew that Boris was now a fool and couldn’t be reasoned with.

But what if he still caused a scene at the engagement banquet? Duke Bourne feared it would ruin his daughter’s big day.

He didn’t want his daughter to become a laughingstock.

His face etched with worry, he strode towards the door.

Edison was greeting Boris politely. “Mr. Lewis, this way please!”

In a black suit, Boris remembered Edison’s visit to Ziana yesterday. His eyes were filled with contempt.

He raised his chin arrogantly, snorting disdainfully as he brushed past Edison into the banquet hall.

Duke Bourne said with concern, “Today is a happy day. You need to have someone keep an eye on him, making sure he doesn’t have another episode of madness! If we knew he was so unhinged, we shouldn’t have invited him over! If all else fails, have someone lure him away. Once your engagement ceremony is over, you can bring him back!”

“Well…” Edison frowned, “If the others find out…”

“He is unhinged. Whenever his wife is mentioned, he will follow whoever brings it up.” Duke Bourne had made up his mind, “Go and have someone take care of this matter. My daughter’s engagement banquet must not have any mistakes.”

Edison nodded. “Okay, I’ll do it.”

He hurried off to find Jackson and gave him a few orders. Then he came back.

Worried about the situation, Duke Bourne kept an eye on Boris.

Sure enough, not long after, a maid approached Boris.

“Mr. Lewis,” she smiled and said alluringly, “I think I just saw your wife.”

“My wife?” Boris sprang to his feet and shouted, “Where is she? Bawl… Yesterday you. said you would take me to see my wife, but I didn’t see her. Will you take me to see her today?”

The maid was at a loss for words, taken aback by his erratic behavior. novelbin

Fortunately, there were few guests around to witness his outbursts.

Despite his craziness, the maid couldn’t help but admire Boris’ handsome face. So, she continued to deal with him tactfully. “Yes, your wife wants to play hide-and-seek with you. Shall we go find her now?”

“Okay!” Boris replied, clenching his fists. “Let’s find my wife!”

The maid was overjoyed. “Let’s go.”

She led the way. Boris followed and gazed at her back, his eyes glinting with coldness.

They left the banquet hall and passed through several arches before continuing down a path.

Boris grew impatient. “Where are you taking me? Where’s my wife?”

“Almost there,” the maid reassured him, pointing to a room up ahead. “It’s right there. We’ll be there soon.”

Boris looked around and cocked his brows. “Really?”

“Yes!”

The maid picked up her pace, leading him to the door in just a few minutes.

Boris pushed her aside and knocked on the door. “Honey! Are you in there?”

The maid quietly laughed at how foolish he was, then pushed the door.

In an instant.

The door opened.

Boris excitedly rushed in, shouting, “Honey, I’m here! Stop hiding!”

Bang!

The door slammed shut behind him, locking him in.

Boris’ voice trailed off as he realized he had been trapped. His face straightened, but he suddenly heard faint and rapid breathing.

He frowned and walked over, discovering a tied-up Winifred. Her cheeks were flushed, and she was sweating profusely.

He laughed.

It seemed someone was trying to catch him in bed.

The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee By Vera Whitehead Chapter 421-430

Chapter 421 Ziana Knows Everything 

The next day, in the VIP consulting room.

The doctor carefully rinsed Ziana’s eyes and asked, taking off the gloves, “Miss Scott, do you feel unwell?”

Lee also hurriedly asked concernedly, “Ziana, do you feel tingling or burning?”

“No.” Ziana shook her head.

“You can try to open your eyes now.” The doctor followed up.

Ziana nodded silently. Her slender and thick eyelashes trembled. After a while, her eyes slowly opened.

“How is it?” Lee, who had always been calm, was concerned but confused. He couldn’t help asking and taking a step forward.

Ziana squinted her eyes. Lee immediately caught this slight movement. He frowned and asked,

“Uncomfortable?”

“No. The light dazzles my eyes.”

Ziana was wearing a bandage before and was used to the darkness. Now she was somewhat unaccustomed to the light.

“Oh,” Lee said relievedly, “can you see clearly?”

Ziana blinked a few times, gradually getting used to the light. Everything that was blurred in front of her eyes became more evident.

“I’m Okay. Don’t worry.” Ziana comforted Lee and changed the topic. “Has Boris‘ surgery preparations been arranged?”

“It’s all arranged.” Lee replied, “But your eyes just recover. I’m worried that if you use them intensively for a long time, it will…”

“It’s Okay. I can handle it.” Ziana interrupted him, “If the operation goes well, it can be done in less than two hours.”

Lee looked at her. He moved his lips and wanted to say something. But when he met her firm gaze, he was again at a loss for words.

Ziana spoke again, “Master, his situation is at stake. Apart from me, no other person is more suitable for this operation. No matter the reasons, I will not ignore him, let alone have absolute confidence that he will be safe and sound.”

She was so arrogant!

But those words came from Ziana’s mouth, and Lee thought they were reasonable.

“Okay. As you’ve said so, let’s do it.” He patted her on the shoulder. “There is one more thing you need to know. The hospital knows Ava will do a craniotomy, so they will film and record the operation for future medical students to learn. Do you mind?”

Ziana made an “OK” gesture and said, “Be my guest.”

Ziana got up from the seat. Her vision had returned to normal.

The nurse took her to change clothes, and the two left the consulting room one after another. Unexpectedly, after walking for a while, they bumped into Steven, who was rushing over.

His hair was messy, and his eyes were tired and lifeless. There was stubble on his face. He looked very numb.

Ziana frowned and looked at him. The other party noticed her gaze and suddenly turned to stare at her.

One second.

Two seconds.

“Ziana!” Steven asked loudly and walked to Ziana quickly. His numb expression suddenly became vivid, his eyes opened wide, and he stared at her for a few seconds, “Can you see with your eyes?”

He knew Ziana was blind. He had also participated in the search when the car crashed down the hill that day.

“Yes.” Ziana nodded as she said. She was about to leave. “I need to go. See you.”

“How’s Boris‘ situation? Have you found a doctor to operate on him?” Steven got annoyed when he mentioned this.

After he learned that Boris needed a craniotomy, he contacted foreign doctors and even offered to pick them up by a private jet.

Unexpectedly, a policeman suddenly came to the door, asking him to cooperate in investigating Vivi’s affairs. The police asked him if he knew the person that supplied Vivi with the things.

Steven spent the whole night at the police station and rushed to the hospital when he came out.

“I’ll do it for him.” After Ziana finished speaking, she walked into a room.

Steven nodded. “Okay, Okay, you do it for him… No!” He realized abruptly and shouted in surprise, “What? You do it for him?! Ziana, you’re not a doctor! That’s a craniotomy Surgery…”

No matter what he said, there was no response.

Steven was dumbfounded.

He was just absent for one night. Why did it feel like the world had changed?

Ziana could actually perform such a difficult craniotomy?!

How many surprises did she have that he didn’t know?!

Steven was still in deep shock when the phone in his pocket suddenly buzzed.

He answered the phone in a daze. Within a few seconds, he said angrily, “What? The bastard Sean has the Lewis Company now?! What’s going on? I was only away for one night. How did everything happen in one night?”

The other person replied something. Steven hastily hung up the phone.

He fiddled with his phone for a while and left the hospital cursing.

Ziana changed her clothes and walked into the operating room under the nurse’s guidance.

Boris lay quietly on the operating table. His eyes were closed, and his expression was serene.

The cold white light above his head made his face pale.

Ordinary people would look terrifying under such lighting, but his superior bone appearance still made him extraordinarily charming at this moment.

Ziana’s eyes swept over his facial features, from eyes to nose to lips. All the past came to her mind.

They fell in love, they separated, they lost their memories and tortured each other…

Ziana closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes again, there was only the

calmness in her eyes when she was working.

“Start the operation.”

An hour and forty minutes later.

Ziana finished the final suture, ending this near–miss craniotomy.

She breathed a sigh of relief. Her eyes fell on Boris‘ face again momentarily, and then she handed the operating tools to the nurse beside her.

At the same time, applause broke out in the operating room.

That was an unforgettable operation for everyone. It could even be called the most perfect operation in the past five years.

The process was complete and specific, the steps were standardized, and the operation techniques were beautiful and neat. It could be regarded as a work of art.

As for the quick and adaptable ability shown in the whole process, it deeply shocked everyone present.

Those who were not optimistic about Ziana in the first place, without exception, admired her from the bottom of their hearts.

In medicine, the absolute specialty could persuade everyone’s opinion.

“The rest is yours.”

Ziana nodded at the crowd and walked out amid thunderous applause.

That operation was a bit difficult, but fortunately, she finished it smoothly.

Speaking of it, Lee’s acupuncture suppressed the further development of the hematoma. Otherwise, the situation would be far more dangerous than it was now.

After changing her clothes, Ziana rested in the dressing room for a while before coming out.

As soon as Lee saw her, he came up to her. “How is it? Are your eyes hurting?”

“A little sour,” she said.

“I knew it would be like this.” Lee helplessly shook his head and took a small clay pot from his pocket. “Apply this twice in the morning and evening on your eyes.”

“Did you specifically make it for me?”

Lee didn’t bother to answer her question but asked instead, “What about the surgery?”

“With me, everything went well.” She winked at him.

Lee snorted, “Since the operation is over, let’s go. You follow me to the consulting room. I have something to ask you.”

“What’s the matter?”

“What do you think?” Lee squinted at her.

Ziana remembered that she had asked him to help restore her memory, knowing she couldn’t hide it.

She strolled in compromise. “Okay. Let’s have a nice master and student talk.”

Lee put his hands behind his back and led the way.

The two of them came to the elevator. Within two minutes, the elevator door opened. Steven came out of it.

His face was full of ferocious hostility, and he was even injured.

His eyes were swollen, and there was blood at the corners of his mouth.

Ziana frowned. “Steven!”

When Steven saw her, his expression froze. He said unpleasantly, “Ziana.”

Ziana looked at him and asked seriously, “Where have you been?”

“I, I didn’t go anywhere…”

Ziana raised her eyebrows and said nothing. But the cold aura around her was domineering and powerful.

Steven raised his eyelids, took a peek at her, and happened to meet her eyes. He was terrified by her gaze.

He sighed helplessly, “Fine. I will tell you. Is that OK? Don’t stare at me like that. I went back to the Lewis Mansion and fought with Sean’s people… I lost.”

Ziana asked sharply, “Why are Sean’s people in the Lewis Mansion?”

Without waiting for Steven to answer, she guessed immediately, “Sean went to the Lewis Mansion? He has the Lewis Company now?”


Chapter 422 Boris Is Over 

Steven almost wanted to exclaim awesome.

He hadn’t said anything yet. How come she almost guessed everything right?

“I’m asking you something!” Seeing his numb look, Ziana glared at him coldly. “Steven, answer me!”

“Ah!” Steven snapped back to his senses and hastily explained, “Ah! Yes! Sean went to the Lewis Mansion. By the way, speaking of Sean, there is a shocking secret. He is Erkan Lewis. Do you know who Erkan Lewis is? He’s Boris‘ cousin, who died a few years ago. But who knows…”

“I know.” Ziana interrupted him, “Get to the point. What’s the situation now? He is controlling the Lewis Company now? How is Grandpa?”

While mentioning Zezili Lewis, Steven got angrier. novelbin

He put his hips on his hips and scolded, “Ungrateful bastard! Erkan is inhumane! Yesterday, he brought a group of people to the Lewis Mansion and forced his grandfather to admit that he was Erkan Lewis. He even held a video conference to announce that he would be in charge of the company. Furthermore, he was very mean to Grandpa!”

“That’s his grandfather, who watched him grow up and even educated him in person. But he imprisons Grandpa cruelly!”

Ziana bit her lip. “How is Grandpa?”

“I don’t know!” Steven spat. “I wanted to go into the Lewis Mansion today but got beaten. So I didn’t see him at all.”

“Did you call Grandpa?”

“I did. His phone was turned off.” Steven scratched his head. “I’m worried about him. If there is something wrong with Grandpa, I will skin that bastard Erkan alive! Grandpa treats Erkan so well. Erkan didn’t thank Grandpa but imprisoned him!

“Damn! Grandpa Lewis shouldn’t have adopted such an ungrateful bastard back then! The civil strife in Lewis‘ family five years ago was caused by him and his father. He made a comeback after five years! I won’t let him go easily this time!”

Steven roared aggressively, “I will teach him a good lesson this time!”

“Sir, this is a hospital. Please keep your voice down!”

His yell immediately received a solemn reminder from the nurse. oftuambitions suddenly died down.

He made an apologetic gesture to the nurse and then looked at Ziana. “By the way, Ziana, how is Boris? You just said that you performed an operation on him. Was it true, or was it kidding me?”

Ziana looked at him. “The operation is done, and it was a success. We have to wait for him to recover.”

“It’s done? Good! Good!” Steven said happily. That could be said to be the best news in the past few days. “When will he wake up? How long will it take him to recover?”

“It will take three days at the earliest.”

“How is the longest?”

“Over ten days. We need to pay more attention to observation.” Ziana pointed to the wound on his face. “Do you want to ask a nurse to treat it for you?”

“I’m a big man. This little pain is nothing to me. I don’t care about it at all!” Steven waved his hands indifferently and cursed again in the next second, “Erkan’s people are nothing! After I rest well, I will

bring a hundred people over this time. I will have to see Grandpa Lewis with my own eyes no matter what!”

Steven’s thought was straightforward.

Boris was now in a coma, and the company was taken away. Steven had to take good care of Boris‘ grandpa no matter what happened. Otherwise, he would be guilty.

“Okay,” Ziana said, “Go and see Boris first. He will be pushed out in a while.”

“Okay!” Steven’s eyes fell on her. He said in surprise and joy, “Ziana, did you do the surgery?”

Ziana didn’t answer. She pointed to Lee next to her. “I have something to do. I’ll talk to you another day.”

After she finished speaking, she entered the elevator with Lee.

Once they got inside the elevator, Ziana pressed the first floor directly.

Lee looked at her. “My consulting room is up there.”

“I won’t go. I suddenly remembered something else.” Ziana turned her head and smiled. “Master, I know what you’re going to ask. That’s right. I suddenly remembered everything that day.”

Lee snorted, “I guessed it. Can you tell me about that part of the memory?”

Ziana pondered for a moment and then shook her head.

Lee felt the sudden sadness around her. He paused and then said, “Tell me when you want to talk.”

“I will.”

When the elevator reached the first floor, Ziana walked out and waved to him. “Master, see you.”

Lee looked at her back and sighed deeply.

After Ziana bid farewell to Lee, she made a call.

Not long after, a luxury car drove up slowly.

Donald deliberately got out of the car and respectfully opened the door for her. “Miss Scott, please get in the car.”

Ziana saw someone sitting in the back seat.

“Yudel.” Ziana smiled helplessly. “Can your meeting finish at this time?”

“It’s over in advance. I heard you finished the operation, so I rushed over immediately.” Yudel looked her eyes seriously and asked with concern, “Can you see clearly?”

“My eyes are fine. My master gave me a special ointment.” Ziana took out the ceramic jar as if offering a treasure and waved it before his eyes.

Yudel took it over. “What your master gave must be the best.”

Her several masters loved her very much.

“Of course,” Ziana said, changing the subject, “Give me the tablet.”

Yudel raised his eyebrows and handed it to her from the side. He saw her searching for the Lewis Company and clicking on the latest news.

Yudel asked, “After Boris‘ accident, Sean took over the Lewis Company. Today’s news is all about. the Lewis family.”

Ziana nodded casually. All her attention was on the news.

The things about the Lewis family were being talked about everywhere on the Internet, but the content was the same.

The public was shocked that Sean Yates was Erkan Lewis. Besides, the more being talked about was speculation about the turmoil in the Lewis family.

Some people thought of the civil strife in the Lewis family five years ago and believed that this time was the final battle for power.

Judging from the current situation, Boris‘ life and death were uncertain. There was a great possibility that he would be eliminated.

Ziana laughed out loud and murmured, “Completely out? Did they ask about my opinion?”

“You want to meddle in the Lewis family’s affairs?” Yudel looked at her thoughtfully. He wondered if she remembered something.

Ziana didn’t hide anything. “Of course. I want to protect the Lewis family for him, and I have to guard his belongings.”

Yudel frowned.

Ziana had always been protective. But this time, Yudel always felt that something was different.

Because when she spoke, her tone was exactly the same as when she was not hypnotized.

“But things may not be that simple, Ziana,” Yudel said softly, “As soon as something happened to the Lewis family, I noticed it. After my analysis, I found that it happened in a well–prepared manner. There seems to be someone behind Sean to help him. If not, with his brains and resources, it is impossible to do this.”

“The Arte Family,” Ziana said firmly.

“More than that.” Yudel shook his head.

What she could think of, he had thought of it a long time ago. He sent someone to investigate at that time, but the results he got were not very satisfactory.

“There are people behind the Arte Family. I suspect it’s the same one behind Sean,” Yudel said slowly, “If I’m right, Boris offended someone. This person has a lot of power and resources. He wants to put Boris to death.”

Chapter 423 Guard the Lewis Family for Him 

“So you want to persuade me not to interfere in this matter?” Ziana asked calmly after listening.

Her deep eyes were like clears pools in the autumn sun. When she silently stared at people, there was a kind of powerful force.

Yudel pushed his glasses. “No, I know it’s useless to persuade.”

He knew his sister well.

Ziana valued those she cared about very much, let alone Boris, whom she had loved deeply.

Given Boris‘ current situation, she would never stand by.

“It’s useless.” Ziana smiled. “When he needs me, I have to help him.”

“I know.” Yudel shook his head. “You also know that I will never stop what you are going to do. I want to remind you that this matter is more complicated than we imagined. Once you intervene, it may be possible getting into trouble. It is easy to get into the game, but getting out of it safely will not be so easy.”

“Then ruin the game and get out.” Ziana said the most ruthless and domineering words in the calmest tone, “If he doesn’t let me out, I will ruin his game. Let’s see what else he can use to trap me.

“Yudel, I’m never afraid of what I have to do. Besides, even if I don’t do anything, is it safe?” She looked over suddenly and asked, “Did you forget I was kidnapped five years ago?”

“You…” Yudel sat up straight in surprise. “When did you remember?”

“A few days earlier.” Ziana continued, “I didn’t do anything at the time. Wasn’t I innocent? Boris. also did nothing. Wasn’t he innocent? You must know that the other party’s decision will not be changed

because of me. I don’t need to fear what the other party will do. I just do what I should do.”

“As for what will happen, let it happen. There will be a way.”

Yudel’s gaze stayed on her face for several minutes until Ziana laughed. “Yudel.”

“The thing about you being hypnotized five years ago…‘

“I know you were doing it for my good.” Ziana put down the tablet and comforted him, “We can’t figure out what happened in the past, so let it pass. The important thing is to live well in the future.”

“What’s the plan between you and Boris?”

“I don’t have any plans.” Ziana avoided the topic. “Defend the Lewis family for him first.”

She didn’t mention her feelings at all. Yudel thought, “Maybe she doesn’t know how to deal with it.”

“Okay,” He said, “Whatever you want to do, just do it at your will. The family will support you.”

“Well, I want some people.”

“I’ll arrange it now.”

Yudel moved fast. The people were gathered within ten minutes.

Yudel hung up the phone and said to her, “They’re waiting for you at the Lewis Mansion.”

Ziana smiled and complimented, “You know me well.”

She didn’t say anything, and he guessed what she was going to do.

Yudel rubbed her head smilingly, but he was worried.

The matter of her kidnapping five years ago had not yet been solved. If she provoked the behind Sean again this time, he was indeed a bit worried. person

But the worry was not a problem. The Scott family, who had learned from the past, would never lose.

The car drove for an hour and stopped in front of the Lewis Mansion.

The Lewis Mansion was very classical and magnificent. The overall design imitated the style of ancient mansions. The gate was mighty and domineering.

Ziana got out of the car and raised her chin. “Knock on the door.”

After a long time, the door was not opened.

Ziana sneered, “I can’t get in if the door is not opened?”

She waved her hand. “Remove the door.”

“Yes!”

Donald rubbed his hands vigorously and greeted his subordinates, “Brothers, Miss Scott wants us to remove the door!”

The people responded. They took the weapons that had been prepared earlier and got busy to remove the door.

Within five minutes, the two doors were removed.

Donald smiled as if begging for a reward. “Miss Scoot. The door is gone. Please come in!”

A group of bodyguards lined up neatly and opened the way in front. Ziana and Yudel strode in.

Within two steps, a group of people ran out. Seeing such a big scene, they immediately panicked and asked, “Who are you guys? This is the Lewis Mansion! Get out!”

Everyone looked at Yudel. novelbin

Yudel pushed his glasses, smiled gracefully, and said nothing.

Donald comprehended. “Kick their ass!”

As soon as these words came out, the bodyguards started fighting. Unexpectedly, in about two or three minutes, the fight was over.

Although Sean’s people were also equipped with pistols, how could they fight against people with machine guns?

Wasn’t it throwing an egg against a rock?

Knowing the people who came were ruthless, they raised their hands and surrendered without hesitation.

In this way, Ziana entered the living room smoothly.

The people in the living room chose to surrender in the same way.

One of the leaders wanted to call to report but was punched by Donald and passed out.

“Searching for Grandpa.”

Soon, Zezili and Carrier were brought to the living room.

The two were gloomy at first, but when they saw Ziana, their joy was beyond words.

“Ziana!”

“Mrs. Lewis!”

Zezili knew Yudel, nodded at him, and then looked at Ziana again, “Ziana, why are you here?”

“I heard something wrong happened here. So I come over here to have a look.” Ziana walked up to him and squatted down. “How is it, Grandpa? Are you feeling well? Did they do anything to hurt you?”

Zezili knew what she was talking about, shook his head, and said, “No, he just asked someone to put me under house arrest.”

Ziana heaved a sigh of relief, “That’s good. He still has some humanity.”

“Ziana, I’m happy to have you here. Is Boris…”

“He’s fine. He’ll wake up in a few days.” Ziana understood his worry, reported the good news to him directly, and continued, “Grandpa, you should come and live with me first.”

“I’m fine. He won’t do anything to hurt me.”

“You can’t tell if he goes crazy.” Ziana was afraid that Zezili would refuse again, so she tempted him, “Didn’t you always want to play with Ewen? He can talk now, and you can chat with him.”

“Really?” Zezili’s eyes showed longing. “What words can he say? What’s his temper? Is he also cold. and restrained as his father?”

“If you want to know, go and see for yourself.” Ziana took the opportunity to say, “But if you don’t want to go, just forget what I said.”

Zezili hurriedly said, “I want to! Let’s go now!”

Ziana raised her eyebrows proudly. “Okay.”

She took the wheelchair from Carrier, pushed Zezili, and left the Lewis Mansion.

After their car left, someone dialed Sean’s number.

“Sir, the Scott family came here just now. They took old Mr. Lewis and that maid away. What shall we do next?”

Chapter 424 You Will Go to Prison 

“The Scott family?” Sean leaned his back on the chair and crossed his legs on the desk. “Ziana Scott?”

“And her brother, Yudel.”

“Okay. I see.” Sean said disapprovingly, “Stay in the Lewis Mansion. I will take the old man back tonight.”

After he finished speaking, Sean hung up the phone. After two seconds, he dialed another number.

This time the phone rang for a long time, but no one answered it. Just when he was about to give up, the phone was answered. A deep and old voice came from the opposite side.

Sean said excitedly, “Mr. Hailey, I’m sorry if I bothered you.”

The other party snorted, “It’s three o’clock in the morning here. What do you think?”

“Oh, sorry!” Sean hurriedly apologized, “I just want to tell you that I took down the Lewis Company. Have you seen the news?”

“I have, but Boris is not dead.”

Sean hurriedly explained in fear, “Mr. Hailey, Boris is now in a deep coma. He may not be able to wake up. In fact, he is almost dead.”

“May not? Almost?” The male voice on the opposite side suddenly became furious, “I want him dead, not half dead. As long as he is breathing, he may wake up anytime. He killed my son, and I want him to die. An eye for an eye! He must die!”

“But…”

Sean deliberately procrastinated and emphasized. He pretended to be very embarrassed.

Mr. Haily sensed Sean’s hesitation. His tone was displeased, “Boris has become half dead. Don’t tell me you still can’t deal with him!”

“Although he is half dead, the Scott family has interfered in this matter.” Sean complained to Mr. Hailey, “I only found out not long ago that Ziana is Boris‘ ex–wife. She is also the princess of the entire Scott family. If she wants to protect Boris, what can I do? That’s the Scott family. What do 1 have to fight her?”

“Not Ziana again.” Mr. Hailey gritted your teeth.

Sean asked tentatively, “Did you have a feud with Ziana before?”

A feud?!

It was more than that!

If it weren’t for her, his son wouldn’t have died!

But Mr. Hailey didn’t want to touch her for the time being. Because if Ziana could get married to

Edison, it would be a good thing that the advantages would outweigh the disadvantages.

“If so.” In a short time, Mr. Hailey already had an idea. “If you can’t kill Boris for now, just wait. I heard he has blood congestion in his brain and needs a craniotomy, but there is no doctor right now.”

“Yes!” That was the only thing that excited Sean. He even thought that God was helping him. “It is said that the quickest the doctor will be coming tomorrow, and the congestion will spread. If the operation is not timely, there is a high chance of developing dementia and cerebral palsy even if he has it later.”

If Boris turned into a fool, it would be gratifying!

Just thinking about that scene made Sean want to clap his hands excitedly.

Sean couldn’t help but say, “Maybe he’ll become cerebral palsy later! A fool can’t be a threat at all!”

“That’s the best.” Mr. Hailey ordered, “Keep an eye on Boris. Don’t go head–to–head with the Scott family.”

Sean frowned. “Are you afraid? I don’t want to provoke the Scott family, but what if Ziana comes to provoke me?”

“That’s your business. Our agreement doesn’t include helping you deal with the Scott family. You can do it yourself.”

Mr. Hailey ran out of patience and quickly hung up the phone.

Sean clenched his fists and pounded on the wall.

At around six o’clock in the evening, Sean walked out of the Lewis Company.

That was his first day in the company, and he had a lot of meetings. All the high–ranking officials at the meeting were respectful to him.

It was a good start. Sean was confident that those people would be convinced of his leadership ability within a month.

Thinking of this, his steps became more calm and brisk. novelbin

However, his happy mood did not last long.

When he got in the car, the driver asked where he was going. Sean remembered a shitty business to attend to.

Sean tugged on his tie. “Go to Ziana’s villa.”

“Yes.”

“By the way.” He asked casually, “Is the matter of Anthony settled?”

When Sean went to the Arte villa before, he shot Anthony. He asked his people to handle it.

The driver reported on behalf of the others, “The surveillance video has been cleaned up. Mr. Arte was hit hard by Miss Darlene Arte’s death and went abroad to travel.”

“Very good.” Sean heaved a sigh of relief, “Drive safely.”

When the car stopped again, it was already approaching outside Ziana’s villa.

The driver reminded Sean, “Sir, we are here.”

Sean glanced ahead. “Isn’t this here yet? Do you want me to go over there?”

“You do need to walk over.” The driver showed embarrassment. “The car doesn’t have permission, so I can’t drive through.”

Sean snorted angrily, “Okay.”

After getting out of the car, he walked for over ten minutes. After expressing his intention to the housekeeper of the Scott family, he was finally invited to the living room.

Both Ziana and Zezili were there, and they didn’t seem surprised at all to see him.

“Miss Scott.” Sean smiled gently. “I’ll take Grandpa home.”

“Is he going home or being placed under house arrest?” Ziana asked lightly.

Sean smiled and said, “You are joking. Grandpa just got sick recently. I worried he would get worse by walking around, so I sent more people to take care of him. I cared about my Grandpa. Why do you call it arrest?”

“Home arrest is illegal, and I never do anything against the law!”

“It’s nice to hear that. Haven’t you done anything illegal? Do you think there’s nothing I can do about you kidnapping me? Just because I don’t have any evidence?” Ziana sneered, “Go back and wait. Your good times are coming to an end!”

Sean was judging the authenticity of her words in his heart, but his face was a little colder than before. “I can’t understand a single word you said. When did I kidnap you?”

“Seth, there are traces of everything you have done. If you don’t want others to know, you better don’t do anything illegal.” Ziana said lightly, “Treasure your time outside. After all, I am afraid you will never have a chance to come out in this life once you are imprisoned.”

“Haha, this joke is humorous.” Sean stopped talking about this topic with her but said to Zezili, “Grandpa, are you sure you won’t go back with me today?”

Zezili looked away and turned the back of his head at Sean.

The corner of Sean’s mouth was pressed down. He said in a cold voice, “Grandpa can live here. When you want to go back, I will take you back.”

Sean had taken over the Lewis Company. As long as Boris couldn’t return to normal, Zezili would not pose any threat to him.

Sean turned and left.

When his figure disappeared, Zezili asked Ziana, “Do you really have a way to send him to prison?”

“You don’t believe me?” Ziana asked with a smile.

Zezili shook his head. “I believe you, but we need evidence. Since he is fully prepared, he must have destroyed all the evidence long ago. Otherwise, he would not dare to be so arrogant now.”

Ziana showed a mysterious smile. “What he destroyed was the evidence he knew.”

Zezili’s eyes showed surprise. “Is there any evidence he doesn’t know?”

Ziana smiled but said nothing.


Chapter 425 Get the Evidence 

Early the next morning, Ziana went to the hospital after breakfast.

Boris was still unconscious.

When the doctor saw her, he turned into a fan and greeted her warmly, “Ms. Ava! You! You are here?!”

Ziana sat on the sofa and motioned for him to take a seat. “Have you checked the inpatient ward?”

“I checked!” The doctor said excitedly.

Ziana had a professional attitude. “Okay. Tell me about the patient’s condition.”

Yesterday’s operation was successful, and Boris‘ body data were within the normal range without. any abnormalities.

After the doctor finished his report, he stared at Ziana admiringly. “Ms. Ava, do you have any suggestions?”

“No. Just continue to infuse him. The same as yesterday.”

“Okay!” The doctor said again, “Are you doing it in person, or am I doing it?”

Ziana looked at the person lying on the bed and shook her head. “You do it.”

She watched the doctor change the transfusion for Boris and stayed for a few minutes until she received a message. She walked out.

It was noisy outside.

Steven was stopped outside the elevator by two bodyguards.

He yelled when he saw Ziana, “Ziana! Ziana! Are they your people? Tell them to let me go!”

Ziana was speechless and waved her hands. “Mr. Howard is our people. Let him go in the future.”

“That’s right!” Steven immediately straightened his back. “I told you I came to see Boris. Can I harm him? Nonsense!”

He rolled his eyes at the bodyguards and ran up to Ziana. “Ziana, you also come to see Boris!”

“Yes.” Ziana nodded at him. “Go in. I have something else to do.”

Seeing her haste, Steven was quite perceptive and didn’t try to hold her back. “Okay. Go to do your work. I’ll go and see Boris. I have something to do later.”

He didn’t go to the Lewis Mansion yesterday. Last night, he had gathered a group of brothers who could fight. Later, he would take them to go to the Lewis Mansion again.

He had to bring Grandpa Lewis out!

Ziana left the hospital and went to the police station by car.

After arriving, Yudel had already arranged everything. She followed a police officer into the evidence storage room.

“Miss Scott, please wait a moment.”

Not long after, the other party came out holding a delicate box.

The police officer put the box on the table and asked, “Miss Scott, is this what you need?”

Ziana slowly opened the box. There was a diamond necklace worth tens of millions of dollars.

“Yes, that’s it.” Ziana replied, “I’m going to go through the formalities with you now.”

After Ziana finished the formalities, the police officer handed her the box and said, “Miss Scott, please return the thing on the appointed day.”

“I will.”

On the way home with the diamond necklace, Ziana called Nell.

She cut to the chase and asked directly, “Nell, Boris gave Vivi a diamond necklace before. Do you remember?“!

“Ah?” Nell’s scalp was numb. He regretted answering the call, “Why did you suddenly ask this?”

Vivi once posted a photo of that diamond necklace on Instagram to show off. If he said he didn’t know, it would be a lie.

“Just answer my question.” Ziana was displeased.

Nell coughed softly, knowing he couldn’t escape from this. He simply said, “Remember.”

“There is a pinhole camera inside, and I want to see the captured images.”

Nell was startled at first but then realized that Boris must have told her. So Nell said, “This kind of camera requires a paired player. The player is in Mr. Lewis‘ hands. Mrs. Lewis, if you want to use it, I will find it and send it to you personally.”

“Send it directly to the villa. What time will it be sent?”

“I’m afraid you will have to go to the hospital. The paired player needs Mr. Lewis‘ fingerprint to open it.”

Ziana replied, “I’m going to the hospital right now. What about you?”

“In an hour.”

After agreeing on a time, Ziana asked the driver to turn around and go to the hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital, they didn’t expect to see many journalists with cameras blocking the hospital entrance.

The driver had no choice but to enter through the back door.

Although there were reporters at the back door, not many, Ziana arrived at the ward smoothly.

Just after Ziana sat down on the chair, Boris‘ nominal attending doctor hurried in. “Ms. Ava, you are finally back! I have something to ask you. A group of reporters came to the entrance of our hospital and asked about Mr. Lewis‘ situation. Do you think we should respond or not?”

Chapter 426 A Call From Edison 

“What should we respond to?” Ziana was puzzled. “Boris hasn’t woken up yet. He can respond after he wakes up.”

Hearing her words, the attending doctor understood she didn’t know what was going on and took the initiative to explain to her. “Mr. Lewis is always the richest man in Japera City. And he has been on a show before and is very well-known. Now something happens to him. Netizens are paying more attention to him now. Hence, the reporter followed up and asked.”

“So what?” Ziana knew what he said. She recalled a little and said hesitantly, “But there were few people yesterday.”

“Yes,” Seeing she had finally got the point, the attending doctor said, “The rumors are intensifying today.”

Ziana frowned helplessly. “What are the rumors on the Internet?”

The attending doctor thought of those strange rumors and quietly raised his eyes to look at her but coincidently met her eyes.

He coughed in embarrassment. “Some said bad things about Mr. Lewis.”

“Tell me about it.” Ziana ordered domineeringly.

The attending doctor was overwhelmed by her and told her all rumors. “They said even if Mr. Lewis underwent a craniotomy, he would become cerebral palsy, and he might not be able to wake up. So many people on the Internet are discussing his injury. And some people even voted on this issue.”

Ziana frowned.

It was a society that entertained people to death.

These people were right.

Generally speaking, those with severe intracranial injuries had cerebral palsy finally.

Boris was in danger. He could not bear the consequences if there were any carelessness during his operation.

Fortunately, she made the operation.

With her professional skills, he would be out of danger.

His surgery went well, and he would not be a cerebral palsy.

However, it was strange that so many people suddenly noticed Boris’ condition.

Could someone secretly add fuel to the fire?

Ziana thought about it and asked, “Did the rumor start spreading today?”

“Yes!”

She realized something after hearing the answer. She replied, “Don’t care about those reporters. Let them say what they say.”

Seeing Boris wake up would be the most powerful slap in their faces.

The attending doctor didn’t dare to go against her wishes, nodded in agreement, and left.

Ziana sat on the sofa with her eyes closed, waiting for Nell, went to fetch the player.

To her surprise, he rushed over twenty minutes earlier than the agreed hour.

“Mrs. Lewis,” Nell said when he entered the ward, “I brought the player here!”

“Okay, let’s start now!”

Ziana handed the chip to Nell.

Nell looked at it in surprise. “Mrs. Lewis, how did you take out the chip?” novelbin

The chip hid secretly in a custom diamond necklace.

Most people could not find it, let alone take it off.

“I took it off by my hand.” Ziana told a lame joke. “Besides taking off the chip to read it, the images. from it will be wirelessly transmitted to the player, right?”

“Yes. Mr. Lewis used this method to monitor and track Vivi.” While speaking, Nell inserted the chip into the player and pressed it with Boris’ left index finger for authorization. Soon, a figure appeared on the player.

Vivi wore this diamond necklace until she passed away. She wore it all the time except when she was disfigured and hospitalized. Hence, it recorded almost everything she experienced.

Therefore, the recording content was numerous and messy.

The content included her sex and drug trade with Sean and kidnapping with Sean. It even recorded Sean’s over-injection of her leading to her death.

Things recorded in the recording were enough for Sean to be sentenced to life imprisonment.

The recording also included some crap and images that were not good for Ziana and Boris.

Ziana told Nell. “Find someone to reorganize and edit the recording. Do you know which parts 1 want?”

“I know!” Nell worked for Boris for a long time and was competent to do such things.

Ziana asked, “Is one day enough?”

The things recorded in this necklace were significant. As long as they were handed over to the police, Sean would be in prison.

Ziana was fast and ruthless in dealing with things, never giving others time to react.

“It’s enough! I will deal with it in one day!” Nell knew how vital this evidence was for dealing with Sean. After Sean was in prison, the Lewis Company could return to its original owner.

He enthusiastically said, “I will find someone to work harder and give you a perfect recording.”

Although the Lewis Company was far inferior to the Bush Company, Nell would recapture it for Mr. Lewis!

Inside the Wesbruck Imperial Palace, there was a quiet palace. The palace gate was closed, and the guards guarded there with full attention.

A little maid came slowly with a lunch box in her hand.

She walked to the door. Then two bodyguards stopped her, took the lunch box for inspection, and waved her away simultaneously.

The maid nodded and walked away obediently.

The bodyguards made sure there was nothing wrong with the lunch box. Then one guard opened the palace door and walked in with the lunch box.

“Prince Edison, it’s time to eat.”

The bodyguard immediately saw Edison sitting on a chair and reading a book.

But Edison didn’t even look at the bodyguard.

The bodyguard didn’t care about it. During the days of being imprisoned, Edison always looked like this. The bodyguard got used to it after seeing him like this a lot. But the bodyguard didn’t know if Edison was calm or pretending to be quiet.

Anyway, the guard’s task was to deliver food to Edison and to make sure Edison was alive. Hence, the guard would not care about Edison for doing other things.

The guard put down the lunch box, told Edison the box would be fetched after an hour, and left.

Then there came the sound of locking the heavy palace door again.

One minute passed.

Two minutes passed.

After a few minutes, Edison turned around.

Seeing the palace door was locked tightly, he took out the mobile phone hidden in the book and continued to surf Instagram trending news.

The first trend was Boris would turn into a vegetable.

Edison was shocked, regretful, and excited.

He was shocked Boris had such an accident.

He felt regretful for Boris’ talents.

He was excited his biggest competitor in pursuing Ziana would disappear if Boris became a vegetable.

The last time he parted with Ziana. Their parting was not decent because of Winifred.

He didn’t expect that things would develop like that.

Winifred was savage and willful. She threatened to die and even pushed Ziana downstairs.

Everyone called him a scumbag, but he was not. The only one he loved was Ziana.

But he couldn’t ignore Winifred because her father was Duke Bourne!

If he let Winifred have an accident in his place, his situation would become dangerous.

That was why he had no choice but to take Winifred and leave the island overnight to return to Wesbruck.

After returning to Wesbruck, Duke Bourne pursued him for this matter. Winifred was frightened and became a little crazy. Duke Bourne asked Edison to be engaged to her, but he disagreed. Hence, his mother locked him up in the palace to reflect here.

However, they could lock his body in this palace but could not lock his heart in it.

He missed Ziana all the time.

He knew he didn’t do well in Winifred’s matter, which broke Ziana’s heart.

But he didn’t want to end up with Ziana like this!

He waited for Ziana for three years. Although he initially didn’t fall in love with her, he owed her. But after getting in touch with her, he found she was such an excellent woman, and he couldn’t control his feelings. Finally, he fell in love with her.

He only loved her.

Now that Boris had become a vegetable, he was the best for her!

This thought made Edison excited.

With trembling hands, he dialed a number.

He could hear the ring ringing three times, and then someone picked it up.

It was a familiar female voice, soft and a little cold. “Hello.”

Chapter 427 Capitalizing on the Moment 

It was Ziana!

Edison would never forget her voice for as long as he lived.

Clutching his phone tightly, he couldn’t help but say, “Ziana, it’s me.”

“What’s up?” Her tone was distant, lacking the warmth it once had.

Edison pursed his lips, his heart sinking. “Ziana, I… Are you still mad at me?”

“No,” she replied calmly.

Her short response delighted him. “Really? Ziana! You’re not mad at me anymore? Do you understand my predicament? I had no choice back then. I couldn’t just ignore Winifred. Can you see that?”

“No.” Ziana remained concise.

“Ziana.” Edison’s heart skipped a beat and his tone grew heavy. “You’re still angry.”

“I’m really not.” Ziana sneered and explained, “You made your choice, and I made mine. You chose Winifred, and I chose to kick you out. Is there a problem?” novelbin

Her words were gentle, but to Edison felt that they were like the first icy winds of winter, slicing. him to the bone.

He felt like the air he breathed was biting.

“Do you have anything else to say?” Ziana said impatiently. “I’m very busy.”‘

He didn’t dare continue with the topic. He knew all too well that Ziana didn’t harbor deep feelings for him. Her words were unguarded, and that was why they hurt him so easily.

“I read about Boris on the internet,” Edison said, collecting himself and returning to his gentle demeanor. “I truly feel sorry for him. I hope his operation is successful, and he recovers fully. I know you care deeply for him, and I’m worried about your state.”

Ziana remained expressionless. “Well, I’m fine.”

“If you need help, just tell me,” he said softly. “I want to be there for you. It may not be appropriate to say this now but…”

He paused before continuing firmly. “Mr. Lewis isn’t right for you. He’s surrounded by danger, and If you follow him, you’ll be dragged down with him. I don’t want to see you get hurt. I know what you want is a stable life. I can give that to you, but Boris can’t. So please, consider my offer.”

“As I said, you’re out.” Ziana’s voice grew weaker. “Since you seem to have forgotten, let me remind you again. I heard that you and Winifred are getting engaged. Congratulations.”

“Ziana…”

“Don’t call me again.”

A beeping busy tone echoed next to his ear. Edison’s expression shifted from gentle to dark in an instant.

He hurled his phone to the ground, marched towards the door, and bellowed, “Open up!”

The palace door creaked open from the outside, and a bodyguard poked his head in. “Prince Edison, how can I be of service?”

“I want to see my mother.”

The two bodyguards exchanged glances, thinking he had finally come to his senses, and hastily said. they would report.

20 minutes later.

Princess Lia arrived gracefully upon receiving the news.

As she entered the palace, the bodyguards discreetly closed the palace door for the mother and son to converse.

“At last, you’re willing to see me.” Princess Lia examined her freshly manicured nails. “Things. have come to this point. If you want to appease Duke Bourne, you must marry Winifred. In fact, you can’t have Ziana, Winifred is a good choice.”

“How is she good? How can she compare with Ziana?” Edison retorted in a cold voice.

Princess Lia glanced at him. “In this world, how many women can compare with Ziana? In terms of wealth and family background, Winifred may not be as good as Ziana, but she loves you and cares for your well-being. What’s more, her father is second-in-command of Wesbruck.

“If Duke Bourne becomes your father-in-law, your future in the Western Royalty will be boundless.”

Seeing that he remained silent for a long time, Princess Lia continued earnestly, “As a mother, how could I harm my own child? Everything I do is to pave the way for you. I don’t ask you to understand my efforts, but I beg you to listen to me and follow my plan.”

“Your plan is to force me to marry a woman I don’t love?” Edison retorted. “I came here today to tell you: let me go. I’m going to find Ziana.”

“What?” Princess Lia slammed her palm on the table. “Didn’t you break up with her? What are you going to do with her now? If you go, what will Duke Bourne think? Have you ever thought about your situation in the Western Royalty?”

“Ziana needs me now. I have to go there.” Edison took out his phone and showed her. “Boris had an accident. She has no one else around her now. It’s a good opportunity. If I go, maybe I can win back her heart.”

Princess Lia understood what he meant. “Are you trying to capitalize on the moment?”

Chapter 428 I’ll Help You Get Ziana 

Edison spoke slowly, “It’s not wrong to say that I want to capitalize on the moment. all I know is that opportunity waits for no one. If I seize it, Ziana will be mine.”

Princess Lia looked at his determined expression and grew serious.

She sat down in a chair and pondered for a moment before declaring loudly, “I don’t agree.”

“I’ll go anyway!” Edison had already anticipated her response and remained calm.

He told his mother coolly, “If you don’t want to lose your only son, let me out!”

“What do you mean?” Princess Lia was taken aback before reacting with extreme anger. “Are you threatening me with suicide?”

Edison didn’t speak but simply smiled at her.

“Unbelievable!” Princess Lia exclaimed with quivering lips, still processing the information, “It’s absolutely insane! Ziana has no feelings for you whatsoever…”

“Feelings are cultivated.” Edison interjected with a raised eyebrow and calmly stated, “Didn’t you tell me that? Moreover, it was you who chose Ziana in the first place. You urged me to approach her, to pursue her ardently. Why are you suddenly changing your tune?”

Five years ago, Princess Lia and Mr. Collins had conspired to orchestrate a kidnapping case.

They had aimed to create an opportunity for Edison to become a hero by saving a damsel in distress, to introduce him to Ziana, and ideally, to make him her boyfriend.

Unfortunately, Boris had been an unforeseen complication in their plan.

Edison had no choice but to save them both.

Although being merely a lifesaver was not as prestigious as being Ziana’s boyfriend, the Scott family had shown their gratitude through generosity.

This helped Edison gain recognition in the Western Royalty over the past five years.

“Five years ago, I was supposed to be her boyfriend. But because of Boris, I lost five years with her – five years wasted. Now that something has happened to Boris, and he’s lying in bed like a vegetable, I won’t let this opportunity slip away again.” Edison clenched his fists and declared, “If I can marry Ziana, it will be more advantageous than marrying Winifred.”

Princess Lia rested her forehead on her hand, sighing heavily. “Of course, I know that Ziana is the best option. However, last time you were on the island, you had a fallout with her.”

“It’s all Winifred’s fault. If she hadn’t come along, Ziana would have been willing to give it a shot with me,” Edison said through gritted teeth, barely controlling his anger. “Isn’t Winifred supposed to be keeping filial piety in the countryside? How did she find out?”

“I heard that Princess Catherine was on a trip there and ran into her,” Princess Lia replied.

“Catherine is probably worried that I’ll become the Scott family’s son-in-law and steal her position as heir.” Edison’s fingers creaked as he clenched them tightly.

Looking at him intently, Princess Lia spoke earnestly. “Since you’re aware of this, you shouldn’t have gone to Ziana. Winifred went crazy after she returned from that island. Duke Bourne insists on letting you marry her. If you refuse to get engaged today, they might target us tomorrow.

“We can’t afford to bear those consequences. Think about it. Winifred is someone we can handle, but can we really control Ziana?

“What if you did pursue her? Can you guarantee that she would accept you?”

Undeterred, Edison insisted, “What if? What if she did accept me? Don’t women easily fall for the man who stands by them during their darkest moments?”

“Whom does she truly love? Do you not know?” Princess Lia couldn’t help but challenge him, “She’s only weak and despondent because of Boris. Does she have any space in her heart for you?”

Edison’s eyes blazed with anger. “But Boris hurt her.”

Princess Lia shook her head, saying gloomily, “You still don’t understand women.”

Edison’s mind reeled.

Princess Lia decided to give him a dose of reality despite his angry look. “I’m not trying to dampen your spirits, but Ziana is unlikely to accept you. I won’t let you take that risk.

“If you go to her now, you’ll gain neither the strength of the Scott family nor the support of Duke Bourne. You’ll lose on both fronts. People will laugh at you, and Princess Catherine will join forces with others to suppress you. Do you want to relive the days when you were bullied by others?”

Edison clutched his head in agony, unable to decide.

Princess Lia pressed on. “Furthermore, the Scott family hasn’t given up on investigating what happened five years ago. Mr. Collins told me that someone has already gone to Galia to investigate him. Fortunately, he was prepared and wasn’t discovered.”

Edison looked up in shock. “Has the Scott family found Mr. Collins?”

“Yeah. They still suspect you. If you rush in now, it will only make them more suspicious. If they find out something, you will be done with Ziana. If they accuse us, your position will be in jeopardy!”

Edison paled at the thought.

He felt torn and helpless, but reality forced him to face the truth.

Princess Lia knew him best and could see that her words had hit home.

She sighed. “Ziana may be a good match, but you can’t tame her. Think about it and get ready for your engagement.”

Edison was too heartbroken to speak.

He slumped in his chair with a vacant expression, as if his soul had been ripped from his body.

Having said all she needed to say, Princess Lia rose to leave.

Just then, the phone rang.

It was Mr. Collins calling.

Princess Lia sat down again and answered the phone. As she spoke, she also mentioned the quarrel with Edison just now.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Collins laughed and said, “He still wants Ziana?”

Princess Lia huffed with disappointment, “Yes! Help me persuade him!”

“Why? I called today because of his and Ziana’s affairs,” Mr. Collins said shrewdly.

Princess Lia was puzzled and said hesitantly, “Mr. Collins…”

“Put him on the phone, and I’ll talk to him.” novelbin

Princess Lia frowned deeply, but since she relied on Mr. Collins, she naturally did not dare to defy him.

She handed the phone to Edison. Edison glanced at the caller ID and answered in a depressed mood, “Mr. Collins.”

“I will help you get Ziana.” Mr. Collins’ words hit home, “But you have to listen to my arrangement.”

Edison’s eyes lit up instantly. “Sure.”

In the Scott family’s villa in Japera City.

Nell stood respectfully in front of the sofa and said to Ziana who was holding Ewen, “Mrs. Lewis, the video editing is finished.”

“Lillian,” Ziana called out to the maid, “take Ewen to play for a while.”

Lillian quickly came over and took Ewen away.

She then said to Nell, “Come with me to the study.”

The two entered the study room, and Nell played the edited video.

Half an hour later.

Ziana snapped her fingers. “Well done. Send it to the police station.”

Sean had been flaunting his power for too long. It was time to end the farce./

Chapter 429 Ending the Farce 

Early the next morning, Nell went to the police station.

After coming out from there, he drove to the office building of Lewis Company.

Sean was controlling the company, and he had been the first one to get fired.

As he gazed up at the towering building, his lips curled into a cold sneer.

Whether it was Sean or Erkan, whether it was five years ago or now, the defeated opponents would always remain defeated.

At that moment, Sean was sitting in a state of desperation in the CEO’s office on the top floor.

He had been in constant irritation these days.

He had thought that those senior executives were easy to handle since they had treated him with respect.

But it turned out that each of these people was a smartass capable of playing dirty tricks.

They obeyed him on the surface but tripped him up behind the scenes.

Their excuses were so sound that he couldn’t find fault with them, leaving himself to sulk.

He was angry because he had planned to start a new game project. Boris hadn’t paid much attention. to it.

He wanted to be different from Boris, to break new ground in different industries and ability.

At first, the top management agreed, which made him very happy. No sooner had the project been developed for three days than they raised a lot of problems.

As he sat there thinking, there was a knock on the door.

Sean slumped in his chair and said helplessly, “Come in.”

The visitors were none other than those old foxes.

He motioned for everyone to sit down and then asked, “What’s up?”

One of the leaders spoke up. “Mr. Lewis, we’ve been thinking about that game project you mentioned. The questions we raised earlier really aren’t a problem.”

Sean raised his eyebrows, wondering what kind of game these old foxes were playing.

He nodded. “Then what brings you guys here?”

“But we are still worried,” the leader said with a hint of compassion. “However, if you can guarantee a turnover of two million dollars within a month after the game’s launch, we will vote to approve the project.”

Sean forced a smile, grinding his teeth.

He knew they were up to no good!

These swine were trying to trap him.

No wonder they had been criticizing him for the past few days. This turned out to be their real goal. They wanted him to pledge.

If he did that, he would be completely at their mercy. They could deliberately cause trouble and ensure that he couldn’t complete the task.

Then he would be a fish on the chopping block.

If they demanded payment, he would have to pay; if they told him to leave, he would have to go!

He couldn’t do that.

Playing dumb, he said, “Who makes pledges these days?”

“If you don’t issue it, we have no confidence in this project and cannot agree to it.”

Sean’s voice turned cold as the cards were put on the table.

He stared at the crowd with his gloomy eyes. “Are you trying to force me?”

The atmosphere grew tense.

Suddenly…

There was a knock on the door, breaking the eerie silence.

Sean was relieved at the interruption and quickly responded, “Come in!”

In walked his secretary with a bewildered expression, followed by a group of uniformed police officers.

“Mr. Lewis, these police officers want to see you.”

“Oh,” Sean replied calmly because he didn’t believe they had any evidence against him.

“Gentlemen, if you have any questions, you can ask me here.”

Turning to the old foxes, he said apologetically, “I’m sorry, but you’ll have to leave now. Let’s talk about it another time.”

“I’m afraid you don’t have that chance, Mr. Lewis,” said the leading police officer with a smile as he took out a pair of handcuffs. “Sean, or perhaps I should call you Erkan, you are involved in a crime and are

now being arrested as a criminal suspect. Please come with us.”

The smile on Sean’s face gradually faded.

He spread his hands and shrugged in surprise. “I don’t understand. Is there a misunderstanding?”

The police officer didn’t bother to explain in detail. He just said, “Take him away! You’ll find out soon enough.”

Sean tried to say something, but his hands were already cuffed.

Two police officers led him out, one on either side.

His face was dark and stormy.

The group left the building.

It was during working hours, and almost all the employees saw what happened. They whispered among themselves, and soon the news spread all over the internet.

Nell received the news immediately and excitedly called Ziana to tell her the good news.

After hearing him out, Ziana gracefully curled her lips. “I see. Make an appointment for me. I’m going to meet Erkan.”

“Will do!” Nell agreed enthusiastically.

In the interrogation room of the police station.

Sean sat at a gray table with his hands cuffed and his feet fixed to the seat.

In front of him was a curtain.

A video was playing on it.

His expression changed from calm to panic, then to anger, and finally to numbness. novelbin

Half an hour later.

The video had finished playing.

“The video evidence is convincing,” said the police officer. “We’ve sent someone to contact the witness. You won’t be able to get away this time.”

Sean didn’t respond for a long time. Then he began to giggle,

He lowered his head and laughed eerily. “Boris!”

It had never occurred to him that Boris had known his identity all along and had used Vivi to take pictures of everything!

He had fallen into a trap.

Boris was so insidious!

“Boris!” He snarled through gritted teeth, “Boris! I’m superior to you! You despicable scoundrel who only knows deceit and manipulation!”

“Enough of your shouting!” The irritated officer barked at him, motioning for someone to lock him up and take him into custody, “Get him out of here!”

Three days later.

Ziana arrived at the police station to return the diamond necklace she had borrowed and to pay at visit to Sean.

The two found themselves in a stark visiting room, furnished with a single table.

Seated elegantly in the chair, Ziana exuded a radiant charm. A hint of a disdainful smile played at the corners of her lips, and her eyes remained cool and detached.

She cast a cursory glance at Sean. “Erkan, you’ve lost.”

Sean glared at her, his eyes blazing. “Bitch!”

“You’re nothing more than a pitiful clown.” Ziana laughed, but her words carried an undertone of menace, I came to let you know that Boris will recover soon. You’ve lost, miserably. You lost five years ago, and you’ll lose again. In this lifetime, you’ll never measure up to Boris, be it through exploiting others or resorting to devious methods. A loser is always a loser.”

Her message delivered, she didn’t linger. Rising gracefully, she strode out of the room.

Sean leaped to his feet, his anguished howl echoing through the room.

“Sit down!” The officer warned sternly.

Sean’s gaze followed Ziana’s retreating figure, his teeth grinding with fury. “Ziana, Boris! Do you think you’ve won? Do you think this is the end? Ha! I’ll tell you now, it’s far from over! It’s not over! I won’t go down like this! I won’t!

“Sit down!” The officer’s voice thundered, and his warning escalated.

Sean whipped his head around, his eyes crimson and voice hoarse, “I demand a lawyer! I want to make a phone call!”

The police obliged, escorting him to the phone room.

After a moment’s contemplation, he dialed Mr. Collins’ number.

The moment the line connected, he implored, “Mr. Hailey, help me! I’ve been arrested!”

Chapter 430 Negotiating With Ziana 

The news of Sean’s arrest had spread like wildfire across the internet, completely stealing the limelight.

Just half a month after taking over the Lewis Company from Boris, Sean found himself wearing silver bracelets and living behind bars.

How quickly things can change.

Netizens joked that the position of CEO of the Lewis Company was cursed and would bring misfortune to whoever held it.

After all, two CEOs had met with unfortunate fates, one unconscious and one imprisoned. Bad news has wings.

Whether someone was fanning the flames or not, Sean’s story was known throughout the internet and even spread to Galia.

Mr. Collins wasn’t surprised to receive a call from Sean, but his attitude was indifferent. “Mr. Yates, our cooperation is over.”

The implication was clear: while they were cooperating, they were partners. But now that their cooperation had ended, Sean’s fate was none of his concern.

Sean understood and shouted angrily, “Mr. Hailey! You can’t abandon me! We have a common enemy! We’re on the same side! If you save me, I’ll work even harder for you!”.

Mr. Collins laughed hoarsely. “Many people are willing to sacrifice their lives for me. You’re not the only one.”

In his view, Sean had lost his value.

When Boris didn’t know his identity, he was a powerful weapon. Unfortunately, his identity had been exposed.

“Mr. Hailey!” Sean never expected such ruthlessness, and he growled, “You can’t do this to me!”

Mr. Collins hung up the phone without another word.

Hearing the beeps from the phone, Sean was overcome with anxiety and fury.

He threw the phone to the ground in anger.

It seemed that even Mr. Hailey – his best chance at salvation – had abandoned him.

Was he really going to jail?

No!

Since Mr. Hailey was ruthless, he would show the man no mercy.

A firm determination flashed across Sean’s eyes. “I want to see Ziana!”

When Ziana received the notice from the police station, she was taken aback.

Why would Sean want to see her?

She didn’t think there was anything left to discuss between them.

“Besides saying he wants to see me, what else did he say?” Ziana asked Donald, “Repeat his words, to me.”

Donald cleared his throat solemnly and imitated Sean’s low, ominous voice. “Tell Ziana to come to see me. I have something crucial to tell her. If she doesn’t come, she’ll regret it for the rest of her life.”

Ziana pondered, resting her cheek on her hand. “If I don’t go, I’ll regret it for the rest of my life? Is it that serious?”

Donald lowered his eyes and said softly, “Maybe he’s just playing games.”

After a moment’s thought, Ziana suddenly said, “Donald, prepare the car!”

“Huh? Where are you going?”

Ziana had already risen and was walking outside. Donald, stunned for a moment, quickly followed.

An hour later.

Ziana sat across from Sean, arms folded across her chest. “Speak quickly if you have something to say. I don’t have time to waste on you.”

Her tone was dripping with contempt and disdain.

Sean looked at her, admiring her proud eyes, high nose bridge, and cherry lips. No wonder Boris was smitten.

“If you have nothing to say, I’m leaving.”

“Wait!” Sean blurted out, desperation creeping into his voice. “If you can get me out of here, I’ll tell you a secret.”

Ziana raised an eyebrow, then scoffed, “I’m not interested in your secrets.”

Sean grew anxious. “This secret is crucial, not just to you but also to Boris. You’ll regret it if you don’t listen!”

“Really?” She blinked curiously, leaning forward slightly. Her voice was soft as she said, “What is it?”

Sean wasn’t about to be easily swayed by her charm. “If you help me escape, I’ll tell you.”

“You tell me first, and then I’ll help you,” Ziana countered.

Sean frowned, his voice steely. “No! You help me first!”

“You tell me first.”

“Fine, I won’t mention it,” Sean stated simply.

He had assumed Ziana would compromise, but the concept of compromise was foreign to the lady.

She nodded. “I don’t want to hear it anyway.”

It was he who had invited her here, acting so haughty while seeking her help. Ziana felt he was utterly clueless about the situation.

Casting a disdainful glance his way, she pushed back her chair, rose to her feet, and strode out without uttering another word.

Witnessing her departure, Sean panicked immediately.

Having finally persuaded Ziana to come, if she left now, who else could save him? young

“Ziana!” He clenched his teeth and called out desperately, “Don’t go! I have something important to tell you!”

She paid him no heed.

As her figure was on the verge of vanishing entirely, Sean shut his eyes and said, “Someone helped me deal with Boris. Don’t you want to know who it was?”

Ziana stopped in her tracks.

Seizing the opportunity, Sean quickly implored, “Miss Scott, please come back. We can discuss everything.”

Now it was Ziana’s turn to toy with him. “Can you see who holds the power here?”

“You do.” Sean swallowed his pride and said awkwardly, “If I reveal everything, will you save me?”

“Speak your piece, or I’ll leave.” Ziana offered no guarantees.

Sean’s expression shifted several times before he finally sighed in resignation.

Telling her might lead to her saving him, but remaining silent guaranteed she wouldn’t.

Though he knew the odds of her helping were slim, he had no other options. She was the last straw.

He divulged everything about Mr. Hailey to her.

“Miss Scott, I swear my words are true, not a single falsehood. If you don’t act, and he discovers this, he’ll target Boris again. He won’t rest until Boris is dead.”

Ziana inquired suddenly, “What is the grudge between this mysterious figure and Boris? Why the relentless pursuit?”

Sean pressed his lips together, his eyes darting about, clearly aware of the hidden details.

Ziana chuckled, “Whether you reveal it or not, it doesn’t matter to me.”

“I don’t want to die.”

“I can prevent your death.”

“I don’t want to go to jail.”

“That I can’t help.” Ziana flicked her hair, “The most I can do is fight to spare you the death penalty. But you won’t avoid life imprisonment. Tell me everything you want to say, or stay silent and face execution. The choice is yours.”

Sean’s heart turned to cold ashes.

He finally understood what it meant to be a lamb to the slaughter.

After a long time.

In despair, he said, “Mr. Hailey once mentioned on the phone that Boris killed one of his sons, and he demanded blood for blood!”

A spark ignited in Ziana’s eyes.

She recalled the short-haired boy who had kidnapped her five years ago.

He had made a phone call to his father, and a punk by his side called the person on the other end of the phone Mr. Collins.

Mr. Collins…

Mr. Hailey…

Could they be one person?

The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee By Vera Whitehead Chapter 416-420

She anxiously stared at Sean without blinking her eyes.
After listening, Sean furrowed his brow and said, “Why are you panicking? Would I really not give it to you? As long as things
work out, what I promised will be given to you.”
“Isn’t it already worked out?” Vivi pursed her lips. “Boris is on the verge of death. While he’s unconscious these days, you can
definitely take down the Lewis family. I’ve already helped you achieve your goal. You better give me the money quickly.”
In fact, she was ready to leave.
Even if Boris didn’t die, he would still end up in prison. The charges of running a casino and kidnapping combined would result in
a minimum of ten years.
With Sean around, she couldn’t possibly benefit from the Lewis family anymore.
Instead of staying here, she wanted to make some money and run away.
If she waited any longer, she feared something unexpected might happen.
After all, the opponent was Boris. In case he turned the tables, he would definitely show no mercy.
She was better run away quickly.
She wanted to run to a foreign country, away from all this chaos. Survival was paramount!
With these thoughts in mind, Vivi saw that Sean didn’t respond and continued. “You’re not planning to back out on your word, are
you?”
Sean chuckled and replied, “No.”
“Then give me the money.”
“When the job is done.” He repeated.
Vivi felt uncertain and changed her mind when she faced those gloomy eyes. “Give me half of it first, then I’ll trust you.”
“Fine.” Sean transferred half of the money to her, and a smile finally appeared on Vivi’s face. “When will you take action against
the Lewis family?”

“When the police have the results.”
In truth, Vivi didn’t care about Sean or the Lewis family’s matters. Since she couldn’t gain anything from them, she asked these
questions only to find out when she could get the remaining half of the money.
She nodded and said, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave.”
Sean watched her figure receding into the distance, a sinister smile creeping across his face.
Early the next morning, over a dozen police cars surrounded Steven’s gaming company building.

They made a grand entrance, with dozens of police officers rushing into the office building.
The employees who were working witnessed the scene, filled with extreme fear.
A police officer asked the secretary, “Where is Steven?”
The trembling secretary replied, “Mr. Howard went to the hospital to visit Mr. Lewis.”
Boris was unconscious after the car accident, and it was the second day. The doctor who was supposed to perform the surgery
hadn’t arrived yet.
The police commanded. “Call him immediately and tell him to come back to the company!”
The secretary had no choice but to comply.
Half an hour later, Steven appeared at the company.
His countenance appeared weary, with bloodshot eyes, indicating a lack of proper rest. Additionally, a hint of stubble had
sprouted on his face.
“Officers! Greetings! Welcome!” He seemed unsurprised by their presence. “It’s a pleasure to have you here. Quite a gathering
today, right? So, would you prefer tea or coffee? I’ll have my secretaries prepare it for you!”
“No need.” The police officer stated matter–of–factly. “We have received information suggesting that your gaming enterprise is
involved in running a gambling establishment. We are here to conduct an investigation and gather evidence.”

 

“This is an injustice!” Steven exclaimed, disregarding his appearance, “Whoever spread these baseless and defamatory rumors
must be blind and devoid of conscience! I am an honest and law–abiding citizen! Who falsely accused me of such malicious
intent? I’ll make sure to tear their mouth apart!”
The police officers fell into silence.
Steven, despite his handsome appearance, suddenly sounded like a virago.
“Alright, enough crying. The information we possess indicates your involvement in illegal activities, such as operating a gambling
establishment. We will be investigating your gaming enterprise,” the officer said sternly.
Steven forcefully wiped his tears. “Fine! I conduct myself honorably and lawfully! If I haven’t done something, then I haven’t! Go
ahead and investigate! Even if you search through my underpants, I haven’t committed any crimes!”
With his consent obtained, the police officers immediately sprang into action.
However, after three hours had passed, they had exhausted all avenues of investigation without a trace of alleged online
gambling.
Once again, Steven began his howling. “Officers, have you been deceived? Who is responsible for this? Not only have they
falsely accused an upstanding citizen like me, but they have also made you run around in circles! We must apprehend her and
ensure she faces imprisonment! Such despicable behavior cannot be tolerated!”

The police, having achieved no results, offered their solemn apologies before reluctantly departing from the company,
accompanied by a sizable entourage.
To their surprise, a multitude of media journalists had gathered outside the company building.
Upon catching sight of their exit, the reporters eagerly vied for attention. “We have received. information alleging that Mr.
Howard’s gaming enterprise is engaged in illegal activities. Can you confirm the veracity of these claims?”
The police clarified. “There is no truth to such allegations. Our investigation has concluded that Steven’s gaming company
operates in compliance with the law, and there are no instances of any illegal or disorderly conduct.”
In the quiet living room, Sean watched this interview segment and forcefully kicked the coffee table.
Frustrated and furious, he jumped up, cursing repeatedly. “Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!”

 

How could they not find any evidence?
He had personally witnessed that Steven’s games indeed included gambling elements just yesterday.
This was maddening!
Why was it turning out like this?
Steven’s gaming company was invested in by Boris, and to outsiders, the gaming company and Lewis Company seemed
interconnected.
If something went wrong with the gaming company, it would undoubtedly affect Lewis Company’s stock. Lewis Company had
already been facing financial issues due to its investment in Steven.
If the stock were to plummet further at this moment, Sean could gain complete control over Lewis Company.
But now, the first step had gone wrong!
Could it be that all his careful planning would end in failure?
No!
Five years ago, he had failed once, and he couldn’t afford to fail again after five years.
If he failed, he would lose his worth, and even Mr. Hailey in Galia wouldn’t spare him.
He had to survive!
He had to take down Lewis Company!
Since the acquisition method wasn’t working, he would have to resort to that other method!
Taking a deep breath, Sean turned around and went upstairs, retrieving a dossier from a drawer, and swiftly descended.
To his surprise, as soon as Sean opened the door, he saw Vivi standing outside, preparing to knock.
Her expression was grim, and her disfigured face appeared even more sinister. As soon as she saw him, she asked, “How can
Steven be fine? Didn’t you say that once I handed over the evidence to the police, both Steven and Boris would go to jail?”

“How would I know?” Sean gritted his teeth, seething with anger. “They probably anticipated me! Maybe they have been wary of
me all along!”
Suddenly, he vividly remembered that when Boris visited him yesterday, he knew that he was Erkan!
“That must be it!” Sean exclaimed out of the blue, “Certainly! He might have been playing tricks on me all along!”
Vivi exclaimed in astonishment, “What? What do you mean?”

Sean ignored her completely, too busy to pay her any attention.
If Boris had always known his identity and was cooperating with him, then he had to act quickly. He had to seize the opportunity
and take down the Lewis family before Boris woke up, securing his position as the head of the Lewis family.
With this in mind, he forcefully pushed Vivi aside, saying, “Move! Don’t get in my way!”
Seeing him about to leave, Vivi quickly grabbed hold of him and said, “You can’t leave! Are you trying to cheat me? No matter
what’s going on between you and Boris, and regardless of whether you can take down the Lewis family or not, you need to pay
me now! Otherwise, I won’t let you walk out that door!”
“Get lost!” Sean was furious and slapped her across the face. “I don’t have a single penny!”
“If you don’t give me the money, you won’t leave today!” Vivi, dazed from the slap but still holding on, said, “Give me the money!
Once I have it, I’ll leave! You promised me! I don’t care! If you don’t give it to me, I’ll go to the police right now and tell them
everything you’ve done! We’ll both go down together!”
“You dare!” Sean raised his hand and slapped her on the forehead. “Go ahead and try to say it!”
“If you don’t give me the money, I’m going right now!” Vivi thought she had found his weak spot.
A sinister glint flashed in Sean’s eyes. “Fine! You want money, right? I’ll give it to you! Right now!”

He forcefully kicked Vivi away and strode upstairs. Worried that he might escape, Vivi rolled onto the ground and quickly followed
him.
Sean entered the bedroom and retrieved a syringe from the cabinet, hiding it behind his back before stepping out.
Vivi reached out hurriedly. “Where’s the money?”
He chuckled coldly. “I’m giving it to you right now.”
Before she could react, he swiftly injected the contents of the syringe into Vivi’s neck.
Vivi looked at him in fear and confusion. “What… What is this?”
“This is what you’ve brought upon yourself,” Sean said coldly.

 

After speaking, he mercilessly grabbed her hair and dragged her out of the house.
He tossed her to the side of the road and drove away.
Vivi lay on the ground, watching him disappear before her eyes.
Suddenly, her body began to ache, and her breathing became rapid. Her heart raced as if it would burst out of her chest.
She was familiar with this sensation. Every time she had indulged in that substance before, it would send her into bliss, making
her eyes roll back.
But this time, something felt different.
The sensation was much stronger, unbearable, even as if she were on the verge of death.

Vivi became terrified.
Was she… Was she going to die?
It was Sean!
Sean wanted her dead!
Not only did he refuse to give her the money, but he also wanted her dead!
No!
If she was going to die, she would take him down with her!
It was because of him that her life had taken a turn for the worse, descending into misery and depravity!
She hated him!
Vivi struggled to crawl to her feet. She would go to the police station and expose every deranged thing he had done!
Foam started to form at her mouth, and her vision blurred, but she persisted, crawling forward step by step.
Half an hour later.

 

She convulsed on the roadside, her eyes wide open, foaming at the mouth, with her legs stretched out straight, appearing as if
she had died in a state of lifeless and unblinking.
Witnesses, observing her motionless for an extended period, approached curiously and checked for signs of life. To their
surprise, upon sensing no breath, they discovered she was dead and immediately contacted the authorities.
The police swiftly arrived on the scene, utterly unaware that the deceased individual was Vivi.
What came as an even greater shock was the cause of death, overdose.
Without delay, they proceeded to search Vivi’s residence. After uncovering numerous substances, they eventually came to the
conclusion that her death was the result of an excessive overdose.

The news of Vivi’s demise quickly spread online, taking less than five minutes to skyrocket to the top of the trending charts.
The news was so shocking that nobody dared to believe their own eyes.
[What the heck? Do I see it wrong? Vivi is gone?]
[What’s even more shocking is that she died from substance abuse! The entertainment industry is truly treacherous. If Vivi was
involved, who isn’t?]
[It’s all rumors! Nothing but baseless accusations! Vivi couldn’t have possibly passed away! It must be slander!]
[Is it permissible to spread baseless rumors just because someone has passed away? Don’t they understand the concept of
respecting the deceased?]
[Why would fate be so cruel to Vivi, such a kind and lovely girl?]
Although the news was officially announced, and despite people’s reluctance to accept it, everyone. knew it was the truth.
Vivi’s Instagram page turned entirely black and white, and her fan clubs and devoted followers changed their profile pictures to
black as a sign of mourning.
Amidst the rapid escalation of the situation, numerous dimly lit videos started circulating online.
The content of these videos was unbearable to watch. The men in the videos were all different, but the women were consistently
identified as Vivi.
In an instant, the pure and innocent Vivi transformed into the sexually provocative Vivi
The authorities promptly discovered these inappropriate videos and swiftly took action.
There were still numerous netizens who, after capturing screenshots from the video, continued to propagate them online through
subsequent rounds of sharing.

Regarding the comments following Vivi’s passing, the prevailing sentiment gradually shifted.
Initially, netizens expressed their condolences, but it eventually transformed into a mixture of sarcastic mockery and verbal
abuse.

 

Some claimed that she played herself to death, others asserted that she completely subverted their understanding, and there
were even those who stated that she was disgustingly filthy, tarnishing Boris‘ reputation.
[I feel so sorry for Mr. Lewis, who is still lying in the emergency room, probably unaware of what his woman was doing behind his
back!]
I can’t believe in love anymore. Was their previous affection all a lie? Wasn’t there any genuine love at all? None whatsoever?]
[Why can someone pretend to be in love so convincingly? What is love, really?]
[I’ve cried so much that my eyes are swollen. This hurts even more than my own heartbreak.]
[The reason why it hurts so much is that we can’t bear to witness something once beautiful shatter into pieces, never to be the
same again!]
Vivi’s story created a storm of shock and disbelief online.
On the other hand, Sean, leading a group of people, arrived at the Lewis Mansion.
Standing in front of the mansion, gazing at the place where he once lived, Sean experienced a moment of daze, but quickly his
expression turned cold.
This was the root of all his tragedies, the beginning of all his misfortunes, the shadow he could never escape from in his lifetime.
He straightened his suit, meticulously tied his tie, and wore a faint, cold smile on his face as he snapped his fingers.
The accompanying bodyguards forcefully pushed open the gates, and the imposing car swaggered its way into the mansion.
Leading the way, Sean followed behind.
Upon seeing these individuals, the housekeeper was taken aback and exclaimed in fear, “What are you doing? Who are you?
Leave immediately, or we’ll call the police!”

Before he could finish his words, he was knocked to the ground by one of the individuals.
The housekeeper, still defiant, shouted, “Someone, come quickly! Call the police!”
Sean stepped on the housekeeper’s back and strode forward.

 

He made his way to the grand hall.
Carrier ascended the stairs, holding the medicine, in search of Zezili. As she observed the sudden intrusion of an individual, she
cautiously inquired, “Who are you?”
Her gaze lingered momentarily on Sean’s face, which bore some resemblance to a familiar visage. She became momentarily
perplexed and hesitantly asked, “You… You are Mister Seth, aren’t you?”
‘I am not!” Sean shouted, forcefully snatching her bowl of medicine and slamming it onto the ground. “I am not Seth!”
“No… You are Mister Seth.” Carrier was almost confirmed.
Seth was born and raised in the old mansion, and she had witnessed his growth with her own eyes. How could she not
recognize his every move?
“Shut up!” Sean slapped her across the face, causing Carrier to whimper in pain. He hissed. “Where is Zezili? Go and call Zezili
down immediately!”
Carrier covered her face, sobbing softly. “Mister Seth… How could you… How could you do this? Old Mr. Lewis would be so
happy if he knew you were alive… What… What are you planning to do?”
“He wishes for my death! How could he be happy? He has never cared about me, his own grandson! His heart is only filled with
his precious biological grandson!” Sean retorted, filled with frustration.
Originally, he hadn’t intended to say these words, but once he began, all the grievances of the past rushed forth like a floodgate
being opened.
“No matter what I say or do, I can never compare to his biological grandson! Why? Has he ever recognized my efforts? Why
does he treat me this way? Just because I’m not his blood–related grandson, am I always inferior to Boris?”
As he spoke, tears streamed down his face. He wiped them away hastily, forced a self–deprecating smile, and then looked up,
shouting toward the staircase, “Zezili! Zezili, get yourself down here! Don’t make me send someone to find you!”
“No need to bother.” A mocking laughter echoed from the second floor, followed closely by Zezili’s appearance before everyone.
He scanned the crowd and smirked. “I’ve come on my own.”

Sean gazed in his direction.
Zezili remained as formidable as in his memory, exuding an aura of dominance and an air of disdain for all beings, regardless of
the time.
Indeed…
It was that very look.
Zezili always regarded him with that same gaze, cool, tinged with criticism and mockery, as if he could never meet Zezili’s
expectations.
No matter how well he performed, in Zezili’s eyes, it was never enough.
Whenever Sean laid eyes on Zezili, a shadow enveloped his heart, reminding him of that haunting past he would rather forget.
Through gritted teeth, he uttered. “Zezili!”

“Seth.” Zezili descended calmly, coming to a halt in front of him, silently observing. “You’re not dead.”
“Did you truly wish for my demise? I apologize for disappointing you!” Sean sneered. “Even if Boris died, I could never perish! By
the way, your precious grandson is currently lying in the hospital, awaiting salvation. I heard he might require cranial surgery.”
As he mentioned it, his excitement surged. “Do you have any idea about cranial surgery? It’s a major operation, and his injury is
quite intricate. There are only a handful of individuals in the entire Oslosall who can perform it! He had good luck five years ago,
but he can’t possibly be fortunate forever!”
Zezili squinted his eyes. “So, it was you who orchestrated events five years ago.”
“Yes! It was me, so what!” Sean admitted unabashedly. “It’s just a shame that he didn’t die! But this time, it’s different. With a
cranial surgery, a single mishap could turn him into a fool or a vegetable!”
He laughed uproariously. “Your most prized grandson, the one you constantly praise, will be reduced to a fool. Just thinking
about it will relieve my anger! You always believed he was superior to me, right? Well, now he’s on the verge of becoming a fool.
Let’s see how he can outshine me! You thought I wasn’t your blood, but he’s your own grandson. Now, watching your own

grandson deteriorate like this, does it sadden you?!

 

“You know, even if it does sadden me, you brought it upon yourself! It’s all your fault!”
Zezili shook his head slowly. “I never looked down on you simply because you weren’t my biological grandson. The reason I
belittled you was because your capabilities truly fell short.”
“You!” Sean gritted his teeth, his eyes wide, only to quickly retort. “I fall short? Didn’t I nearly kill him twice?”
“But he didn’t die. You had the capacity to kill him long ago. In that dire situation five years ago, managed to survive, and this
time won’t be an exception.” Zezili asserted confidently. “You may have exerted considerable effort, but you are too resentful and
fixated on gains and losses, thus creating an internal imbalance. Your vision is limited, preventing you from achieving greatness.”
After Zezili said that, Zezili’s gaze swept over him pensively, “Now, it seems I was right from the beginning. You truly are
inconsequential.”
Repeated blows shattered Sean’s emotions, driving him to the edge of collapse.
He approached, raising his hand to strike Zezili.
Seeing this, Carrier exclaimed, “Mister Seth! He’s your grandfather! The one who raised and guided you since childhood! How
could you lay a hand on him?!”
Sean forcefully pushed him aside and rebuked him. “Zezili, I didn’t come here today to reminisce with you!”
As he spoke, he retrieved a stack of documents and slammed them in front of Zezili. “Sign these! Declare to the world that I am
Erkan and hand over the entire Lewis Company to me. Otherwise, you will meet your demise today!”

Zezili looked up and chuckled softly. “Are you Erkan?”
Sean’s expression changed, and he suddenly shouted in rage, “Yes! I am Erkan!”
Zezili remained silent, but his aged eyes sparkled with shrewdness and sharpness.
He scrutinized him and then burst into laughter, seemingly seeing through all his cowardly thoughts.
Unable to bear it any longer, Sean lunged forward and grabbed his hand. “Sign! I want you to sign! Haven’t you heard? Do you
want to die?”
Zezili was nearly pulled down by him.
Carrier, standing nearby, exclaimed in alarm, “Mister Seth! Old Mr. Lewis is not in good health! Take it easy!”
“I am not Seth!” Sean yelled in frustration. With a wave of his hand, someone forcibly dragged
Carrier out of the living room.
Now, in the living room, apart from his people, only Zezili was left.
“Sign it!” Sean angrily demanded.
Zezili calmly watched him and softly replied, “What’s the rush?”
Sean slammed his palm on the table. “I want you to sign! You are a stubborn old man! Do you want me to teach you a lesson?”
“Don’t be impatient.” Zezili remained composed amidst Sean’s fury. “You brought so many people. here, pointing guns at me. Do
you think I won’t sign? Signing is just a matter of time, so why the hurry? I’ve taught you since childhood. No matter what
happens, be patient, remain calm. Look at the state you’re in now. How does it reflect on you?”
Sean gritted his teeth as he gazed at him. “Who do you think you are to meddle? Just look at yourself now. What right do you
have to interfere with me? Do you really believe you can control me?”
Zezili, seemingly oblivious, simply asked him, “Do you know what sets you apart from Boris?”
“Don’t mention him to me!” Sean impatiently exclaimed.

Zezili smiled knowingly. “Why not discuss him? What are you afraid of? He’s not even here, yet you’re still afraid of him?”
“Afraid?” Sean found it incredibly amusing, almost absurd. “Afraid of Boris? He’s lying in the emergency room right now, and we
can’t even be sure if he’s alive or dead! What do I have to be afraid of? After today, I will take control of the Lewis Company and

become the king of the entire
Lewis Company empire. Why should Boris even dare to challenge me? He’s not even worthy of competing against me. Tell me,
what do I have to fear?”
“If you’re not afraid, why do you get so worked up at the mention of his name?” Zezili pointed out. astutely. “Do you know what
he would do in this situation?”
“I don’t want to hear it! Stop comparing me to him all the time!” Sean shouted, “Open your eyes and see who the real king is
standing in front of you, the person forcing you to sign. Tell me, who is it?”
Zezili spoke casually. “He would sit here, drink a cup of coffee, read a book, calmly waiting. Since he already has the whole
picture, why rush each passing second? So, broaden your perspective, maintain an assured victory, and exude elegance. Do
you know why I say you’re like a worthless guy incapable of competing with him?”
“Zezili! That’s your bias! You never see any of my good qualities. You only have eyes favorite grandson!” Sean retorted.
“Failure to recognize your own shortcomings and a lack of composure. You’re too impatient.” Zezili disdainfully glanced at him.
“But I understand. After all, you’re not blood–related to the Lewis family. Even though you and your father were raised in the
Lewis family, you can never fully shed that petty mentality ingrained in your bones.”
Throughout his life, Sean always felt insecure about his family background and upbringing.
Upon hearing this, he became furious. “What about your precious Lewis family? What gives you the right to look down on me?
The mighty Lewis family ultimately fell into the hands of an outsider like me. I am far superior to Boris! I’m a hundred times, a
thousand times stronger than him!”
“Is that so?” Zezili found it almost amusing. “Let’s make a bet.”
“What kind of bet?”
“A bet that you won’t be able to hold the position of CEO of Lewis Company.”

 

Sean burst into laughter. “I won’t be able to? If Boris couldn’t do it in his state, what makes you think I can’t?”
Zezili smiled and said nothing, “Dare to take the bet?”
“Sign the document!” Sean squinted his eyes. “Give me Lewis Company! Whether I can hold the position or not is my own
business!”
He took out a handgun from his pocket and pointed it at Zezili’s head, forcefully pressing it against his temple.
Zezili raised an eyebrow. “Fine, I’ll sign.”

After Zezili finished signing, Sean took the contract, carefully read it a few times, and then put it away, satisfied.
“Lewis Company is mine!” He boasted, his tone dripping with arrogance. “So what if you look down on me? After a lifetime of
hard work, the fruits of your labor have fallen into my hands. What can you possibly do to me? As for you, you are utterly
incapable of challenging me!
“Oh, by the way!” He tapped on his phone, pointing it at Zezili. “I’m calling for a shareholder video conference right now. You’ll
inform all the shareholders that I am Erkan, and from now on, I will be fully in charge of the company. Don’t worry. As long as you
do as I say, I won’t kill you.
“I’ll make you witness my capabilities with your own eyes. I’ll prove that you misjudged me, that I’m just as competent as Boris!”
Zezili let out a resigned smile. “Alright.”
One minute before the shareholder video conference, Sean warned him by pressing a pistol against him. “I advise you not to pull
any tricks!”
“No worries.” Zezili smiled faintly. “The clown will only bring shame upon himself. I’m more than eager to watch this spectacle!”
“You’re still talking tough even now. Let’s see in the end who the real clown is.”
Zezili gave a soft snort and started the video conference.
Sean had initially worried that Zezili would create obstacles, but to his surprise, Zezili followed his instructions throughout,
behaving obediently like a puppet on strings.

 

Just like that, he effortlessly became the president of Lewis Company, the unquestioned ruler of the entire Lewis Company
empire.
Sean laughed heartily. “Zezili, you’ll soon witness my capabilities!”
He left a group of people in charge of restraining Zezili and quickly departed Lewis Mansion with the remaining members.
Carrier expressed his concerns. “Old Mr. Lewis, how did he end up like this?”
“Jealousy drives people insane.”
“So he was handed Lewis Company just like that?”
Zezili shook his head. “He’s incapable. He can’t control the ambitious and ruthless characters within the company.”
Five years ago, after Boris took over the company, he devoted himself to cultivating his own influence.
All those high–level executives were ambitious and ruthless characters. With Boris around, he could keep them in check. But
with someone else, they wouldn’t easily fall for his tricks.
Perhaps Boris wouldn’t even need to intervene. Those fierce predators would devour Sean completely.
Observing Zezili’s expression, Carrier spoke with a sense of partial understanding. “Old Mr. Lewis,
Mr. Lewis… He… He…”
“He’s definitely alive, and he will remain so.” Zezili clenched his fist. “He doesn’t want to die, and someone won’t let him die.”

The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee By Vera Whitehead Chapter 411-415

“No!”
Sean, who was following closely behind, witnessed the car hurtling down the hill with his own eyes.
Darlene was still inside that vehicle!
He urgently yelled for the driver to stop, but even before the car came to a complete halt, he had already leaped out.
He ran forward like a madman, and even before he could draw near, he heard a deafening sound all aronid!
The pitch black night instantly became as bright as day, illuminated by a blaze of fire.
The scorching wave of heat generated by the burning wreckage of the car reached them, despite the considerable distance,
leaving them singed by its intensity.
Sean froze, murmuring, “Darlene… No… Don’t….
“No! It can’t be!” He jolted awake, shouting hoarsely, “Darlene!”
Just then, police sirens blared behind them.
“Oh no! The police are here!
“Mr. Yates! We need to go! The police are here!
“Hurry, let’s go!”

Sean got up from the ground, glanced down the hill, and without looking back, drove away.
Less than ten minutes after they left, the police cars arrived, accompanied by a large crowd.
Nell opened the car door and stepped out, seeing thick smoke billowing from the hillside, immediately sensing something was
amiss.
He approached, taking a deep breath.
At that moment, Yudel also approached and asked in a grave tone, “What’s going on?”
Nell anxiously replied, “It appears Mr. Lewis’ car plunged down the hill. I’ll go check the situation!”

 

Yudel waved his hand and was accompanied by Donald and his security guards. They followed Nell’s team as they descended
the slope in search of survivors.
However, the situation at the bottom of the hill was even worse than they had imagined.
The spot where the car crashed was engulfed in a raging inferno, even scorching the surrounding trees.
After extinguishing the fire and conducting a thorough search, they found a charred body inside the car.
From the height of the body, it appeared to be that of a woman.
After the police were briefed on the situation, they asked Yudel, “Mr. Scott, would you like to confirm if it’s…”
“No.” Yudel interrupted, resolute. “It can’t be her.”
Boris was with her, and he would never let anything happen to her!
Nell interjected, “Mr. Lewis brought Darlene with him today, so the body could possibly be Darlene’s.”

As expected, there should have been three people in the car, but now two were missing.
Yudel instructed. “Search within a three-mile radius, and find Miss Scott and Mr. Lewis!”
With two teams cooperating with the police, they quickly sprang into action.
For a while, flashlights flickered all over the mountainside, accompanied by repeated shouts.
“Miss Scott!”
“Mr. Lewis? Where are you?”
“Miss Scott! Miss Scott!”
In a state of confusion, Ziana seemed to hear her name being called.
She felt aching all over her body. Even her breath became intensely painful. She longed to move but found herself immobilized,
and despite her efforts, she couldn’t manage to open her eyes.
Yet, despite not being able to open her eyes, scenes seemed to materialize before her.

 

She witnessed Boris and her being taken away by a young boy with a gun.
She witnessed them being locked inside a cramped, dark shipping container and saw Boris silently eating garbage amidst the
raucous laughter of a group of people.
She witnessed, on the torrential rainy day, Boris’ beautiful eye mercilessly gouged out and him collapsing into a pool of blood as
if life had been drained from him….
“No…”
Her head throbbed, causing her body to convulse in pain. Just then, a gentle voice echoed in her mind.
“Babe, the car is about to crash…
“Don’t be afraid. Hold on to me…
“We’ll jump off the car. Trust me. Nothing will happen to you!”

It was Boris!
It was the voice of Boris!
“Boris…” She uttered with difficulty, her voice quivering. “Boris… Where are you?”
She remembered how Boris had comforted her when the car rushed down the hill.
She remembered him crossing over from the driver’s seat, holding her tightly in his embrace.
She remembered his warm, large hands firmly clasping her waist, assuring her that everything would be alright.
She remembered when they jumped off the car, he held her in a tight embrace.
She was here, but where was Boris?
“Boris…” She couldn’t see, her body aching, unable to move. She could only whimper, not daring to think of anything, unwilling to
think of anything, murmuring softly, “Boris… Please answer me…”
“Mrs. Lewis!”
Not far away, Nell, leading a group of people in search, spotted Ziana lying on the ground.
Her front and back were secured with soft cushions, including her head, which appeared quite comical.
But Nell immediately understood that it was to reduce the impact upon landing, providing protection to the vital organs.
From the way these knots were tied, it could only be Mr. Lewis!
Nell hurriedly approached and instructed the bodyguards to place her on a stretcher.

Unable to contain his worry, he anxiously asked, “Mrs. Lewis, is Mr. Lewis not with you? Didn’t he accompany you?”
“I don’t know.” Ziana shook her head. “We were together when we jumped off the car, but the impact of the crash was too
intense, and I fainted. However, most likely, he should be nearby.”
“Alright!”

 

Nell signaled for someone to take her to the car and then led a group of people to continue the thorough search. in less than ten
minutes, good news arrived. Yudel had found Boris!
However. Boris’ condition was not optimistic.
“He injured his head and bled profusely. I had someone stop the bleeding, but it would be best to get
him to the hospital as soon as possible.”
Subsequently, without delay, a group of people rushed in the car, taking both Ziana and Boris to the hospital.
They both entered the emergency room.
Ziana’s eyes were sprayed with alcohol.
Fortunately, she was quick to evade, minimizing the exposure of her eyes, so the damage to her cornea and conjunctiva was
relatively minor, resulting in temporary blindness.
This was a stroke of luck amid misfortune.
After the doctor repeatedly flushed her eyes with a solution for an hour, she finally could discern blurry figures before her.
The doctor applied medication to her eyes, followed by wrapping both of her eyes with bandages, instructing. “You’ll need to
continue the medication for three more days. Stick to a light diet during
this period. If the recovery is swift, three days should suffice.”

Apart from her eyes, she felt pain throughout her body due to minor fractures in her arms and legs.
As for the vital organs, such as the heart and lungs, they were intact.
All of this relied on those soft cushions.
“What about him? How is he?” Ziana asked.
The doctor sighed. “In comparison, his condition is much more severe.”
Ziana’s hand clenched suddenly as she asked in a low voice, “What… What do you mean?”

 

“He used all the cushions to secure you, but he had no protective measures. So when he fell from a height, his head suffered a
direct impact, resulting in slight deformation of the skull and intracranial hematoma.”
Intracranial hematoma!
This was a very dangerous situation!
It could cause consciousness disorders and, in severe cases, endanger life!
“What’s the current situation? Where exactly is the hematoma located? How large is the volume of the hematoma? Which path
does the fracture line follow?”
Upon initially hearing her inquiries, the doctor assumed she was merely concerned. However, as he heard the subsequent
questions, he quickly realized that she was knowledgeable about the subject.
His demeanor became more serious as he addressed Ziana, saying, “Based on the CT scan, the hematoma is currently of
moderate size. We have taken measures to address it. However, if left to continue bleeding, it will inevitably exert pressure on
other nerves in the brain, potentially leading to severe consequences, even a vegetative state.”
Ziana furrowed her brow and asked, “Why not perform the surgery promptly?”
“The fracture line poses a significant risk due to its precarious location. The only qualified surgeon in Japera City who can
perform this procedure is currently studying abroad. Our credentials are insufficient, but we are actively searching for other
physicians in the hopes of finding assistance for the surgery as soon as possible.”
After a moment of contemplation, Ziana stated. “I will perform this surgery.”

“What?” The doctor was taken aback by her statement, expressing his disapproval. “Miss Scott, you… You better mind your own
business.”
She couldn’t even see right now. How could she perform surgery on someone?
Even if her eyes were perfectly fine, she wouldn’t be qualified to perform this surgery on anyone!
Cerebral hematoma required a craniotomy!
Craniotomy was considered a major surgery with high risks and dangers!
Those who could perform such a surgery in a hospital are at least at an elite level.
Moreover, Boris’ bleeding was in a tricky location, and any slight mistake from the doctor could cost him his life.
This kind of surgery tested years of clinical experience, meticulous and cautious surgical techniques, and exceptional personal
abilities.
Ziana, on what basis?
The doctor, seeing her silence, refused once again. “Miss Scott, I understand your concerns, but please trust us. We will do
everything in our power to treat Mr. Lewis. We will not give up if there’s even a glimmer of hope.”
“I’m not joking. I said I will perform the surgery on him.” Ziana calmly asserted.
“Miss Scott!” The doctor grew a little angry. “Stop being unreasonable!”
“Have you heard of Ava?” Ziana didn’t want to dwell on this issue any further and revealed her identity. “Isn’t Ava qualified
enough?”
“Ava?” The doctor was momentarily stunned, then blurted out. “The world’s foremost international surgeon? That Ava?”
“Exactly.” Ziana nodded.
When the doctor saw her calm demeanor, the doctor’s skepticism wavered for a moment. “How can you proye your identity?”
“Get Dr. Brown here, and he will vouch for me.”

Although the doctor didn’t believe it, if Ziana was Ava, there would likely be no problem with her performing surgery on Boris.
A doctor’s duty was to save lives, and even if they didn’t believe in something, they were willing to try for the sake of treating the
patient.
The doctor immediately sent someone to invite Lee. Coincidentally, Lee had just returned from out of town and was rushed to the
hospital upon hearing the news.
As he entered the ward, the doctor hurriedly approached him. “Dr. Brown.”
After Lee nodded in acknowledgment, he went straight to Ziana.”
The doctor explained Ziana’s situation from behind, and upon learning that her eyes were still functional, Lee solemnly nodded.
“Let her perform the surgery.”
“Is she really Ava?” the doctor asked incredulously.
Lee, a senior physician in the hospital, was highly experienced and possessed extraordinary acupuncture skills that reached an
unparalleled level.
Although he appeared to be an ordinary chief of gynecology on the surface, everyone in the hospital knew that his medical skills
were unmatched in the country. As a result, they held him in great reverence.
Therefore, his words carried significant weight.
“Yes.” Lee confirmed, “She is Ava. You can trust her. I will use acupuncture to maintain the current condition and prevent the
hematoma from worsening.”
As he spoke, Lee took out a silver needle he carried with him and began inserting them one by one.
And Ziana could only hope for her eyes to recover soon so that she could perform the surgery on Boris.
On the other side…
Inside the Arte villa, an unexpected guest arrived in the early morning.
The butler looked at the man sitting on the sofa, feeling a sense of unease creeping over him.

The man looked disheveled, with bloodstains on his body, and his eyes carried a gloomy gaze. When he glanced at the butler, it

was filled with murderous intent.
“Summon Anthony downstairs,” he said, extracting a firearm from his pocket and placing it forcefully on the table, “Hurry!”
The butler was frightened out of his wits and hastily replied, “Yes, I’ll go right away!”
He ran upstairs, knocking on the door vigorously. “Mr. Arte, something happened… Please wake up!”
Anthony, awakened by the commotion, grumbled. “Get lost!”
“Mr. Arte, there’s someone at home who insists on seeing you!” the butler, trembling at the thought of the gun, said once again.
Anthony sat up in bed, threw on his robe, and swung open the door.
The butler trembled. “Mr. Arte, someone has arrived!”
“Well, I’d like to see who it is!”
Anthony was furious. He hadn’t encountered anything good lately.
Not long ago, Wade, the supplier of their construction materials, had caused him to lose millions of dollars.
After much effort, they had finally reached a collaboration with Tomorrow Building Materials Company, only to have the company
raise the prices of all their materials by five percent, thinking they had the upper hand. As a result, his costs were skyrocketing.
To make matters worse, their company had made promises on camera, vowing not to abandon any projects, which meant they
had to continue building those houses even if they were losing money. every day, biting the bullet and pushing through.
The thought of losing money every day was like a bleeding wound in his heart.
The only way for him to recover now was to swallow the Lewis family.
However, his unreliable daughter had claimed she would have the Lewis family taken care of in the past few days, yet there had
been no progress.
When he returned home last night, intending to confirm when they would finally seize the Lewis family, he discovered she wasn’t
at home.

 

It infuriated him!
Filled with frustration, he had finally managed to get some sleep, but now, in the early morning, he was once again rudely
awakened, pushing him to the brink of collapse.
He was on the verge of exploding at any moment!
With a dark expression on his face, he entered the living room. When he saw who was standing there, his eyes lit up. “Did you
manage to resolve the situation with the Lewis family?”

Anthony was acquainted with Sean and knew his true, his daughter, Darlene. all of which was disclosed to him by
Sean had the same objective as Anthony and Darlene, which was to dismantle the Lewis family, and they had been collaborating
together.
Did he come here so early in the morning to share some good news?
Anthony’s previously darkened face gradually warmed up a bit.
He sat down on the sofa with a smile. “Has Boris passed away? Can I finally acquire the Lewis family? I’ve been waiting for this
day for a long time. If it were delayed for two more days, the Arte family would have to declare bankruptcy…”
Sean’s palm struck the table. “I need you to do something for me.”
“What did you say?” Anthony, maintaining his authority as an elder, believed that despite their cooperative relationship, he had
not made any significant contributions. He saw himself in at superior position. “Who do you think you are? How dare you give me
orders?”
In an instant, Sean picked up a handgun and aimed it at Anthony’s head. “Who am I now?”
Anthony’s body tensed up instantly, trembling as he surrendered. “You… You should calm down!”
“Who am I?” Sean asked again.
Anthony, who was dispirited, stammered. “Boss! You’re the boss! Tell me what you want me to do, and I’ll do it!”

“Go to the police station and retrieve Darlene’s body,” Sean said with an immense sense of grief.
Anthony was struck dumb, and he immediately exclaimed, “What? Is she dead?”
He continued, cursing. “How could she die now? She didn’t die earlier or later, but right now? What about our plans? What about
the Lewis family? The Arte family is on the verge of collapse. Damn it, I knew she was useless. She promised me every day that
she would take down the Lewis family. How could she be so useless!”
A bullet shot out of the muzzle, piercing through Anthony’s palm, causing blood to gush out instantly.
Anthony looked at his own bloody and mangled hand, howling in pain. “My hand! My…..”

 

Before he could continue howling, he looked up and saw the pitch-black barrel of the gun pointed at his own forehead, rendering
him speechless.
“In ten minutes, drive to the police station and retrieve Darlene’s body,” Sean said, shaking the gun, “Do you understand?”
At that moment, Anthony was so frightened that he lost his soul, becoming a quivering guy who could only nod.
He quickly bandaged his palm and then received a call from the police station informing him of Darlene’s death in a car accident
and instructing him to retrieve the body.
He stared at Sean in astonishment, and Sean, in turn, returned his gaze. Within his penetrating stare, he boarded the vehicle
and headed for the police station.
The police informed him that Darlene had died in the car crash, while Boris and Ziana, who were also in the car, had managed to
jump out and survive, currently receiving treatment at the hospital.

Anthony concealed his inner emotions, seething with intense hatred.
Why couldn’t it have been Boris who died?
That foolish Darlene, even if she was doomed, she should have taken that troublemaker Boris with her!
Anthony vented his frustrations toward Darlene. After completing the formalities and signing the documents, he received a
charred and grim-looking corpse.
The corpse emitted a foul odor, and if it weren’t for Sean waiting at home, Anthony would have considered tossing it at the police
station and washing his hands of it.
Anthony made his way back, holding his breath, to the Arte villa, only to find Sean still there.
He quickly jumped out of the car and impatiently urged. “I brought the corpse back. If you want it, take it away quickly!”
Sean stared at him calmly, his voice dripping with malevolence. “You heartless thing, go die.”
In the next moment, a gunshot echoed.
Anthony fell down lifelessly before him, eyes wide open.

 

Without sparing another glance, Sean put away the gun, hoisted Darlene’s body, and swaggered off.
It took him a considerable amount of time to take care of Darlene’s affairs. Afterward, holding Darlene’s urn, he returned to
Japera City.
Boris and Ziana, having narrowly escaped death, remained in the hospital receiving treatment.
Now was the opportune moment for him to bring down the Lewis family.
In the afternoon…
An acquaintance arrived at the police station.
Vivi, who had been rescued in the early hours of the morning, reappeared at the police station in less than ten hours.
This time, she claimed to be filing a report.

She was heavily wrapped, with bandages covering half of her face, and wearing a large hat, making
it difficult for anyone to recognize her at first.
It wasn’t until she revealed her identity that everyone was astonished, staring at her with various expressions.
Since her disfigurement, she rarely appeared in public.
The current Vivi was a completely ferent person compared to before!
“Stop staring!” the policewoman shouted, then turned to Vivi and said, “Miss Colin, please follow me.”
She escorted Vivi to a separate office, and shortly after, another officer arrived, and they both began the standard questioning
procedure.
“Miss Colin, may I ask why you called the police? Is it related to your kidnapping?” they inquired.
Vivi clenched her fist and slowly nodded. “Yes.”
The policewoman’s eyes lit up. “Have you recalled any important clues?”
Early this morning, while the officers were tracking Boris’ car accident, they unexpectedly discovered an abandoned factory.
When they woke her up, she started shouting that she had been kidnapped.
However, when they asked for details, she remained silent, trembling as if she were deeply frightened.
After conducting an examination on her, they sent her back home, informing her that she could come back to the police station to
report the incident whenever she remembered something.
“What is it?” The policewoman spoke gently. “Rest assured. If you provide us with any leads, we will apprehend him.”
Trembling, Vivi asked, “Really… Is that true?”
“Absolutely! Please trust us, the police.” The female officer assured her solemnly. “If you’re concerned that the other party will
continue to harm you, we will deploy round-the-clock police protection to ensure your safety.”

She skillfully probed. “Miss Colin, please speak without hesitation, If you don’t provide us with any leads, we won’t be able to
bring him to justice.”
“The person who kidnapped me… I know him.” Vivi bit her lip. “Actually… It’s… It’s Boris.”
“What?” the policewoman was taken aback. “Miss Colin, you’re saying Mr. Boris Lewis? Your fiancé kidnapped you?”
Tears streamed down Vivi’s face.
She cried. “Yes, it’s my fiancé, Boris. I never imagined… That he would do this to me!”
The policewoman found it hard to believe.
Boris and Vivi were the epitome of a perfect couple, always displaying their affection in front of the cameras. How could
something like this happen?

And why would Boris want to kidnap Vivi?
This explanation simply didn’t hold up.
“Miss Colin, this is the police station. Every word you say carries weight.” The policewoman reminded her. “We hope that
everything you say is the truth.”
“It’s true! Of course, I know this is the police station!” Vivi exclaimed, losing control, “It was Boris who kidnapped me! If this
weren’t true, why would I falsely accuse my fiancé? I was about to marry him, and if he didn’t want to harm me, I… I wouldn’t be
willing to expose him…”
She sobbed, her voice filled with anguish. “Do you know how much I love him? Do you know how devastated I am right now? I
never, ever imagined that he would treat me like this! I’m so heartbroken, so miserable!”
Unable to contain her sorrow, she burst into loud sobs. The policewoman and her partner exchanged glances and patiently
consoled her until she calmed down.
“Very well, Miss Colin, now you may proceed to recount the entire sequence of events.”
Vivi sniffled and sobbed. “I was at the hospital when he asked me to go out for some fresh air. I went, but then I was taken to a
warehouse by someone.”

 

“But we can’t be certain that it was Mr. Lewis who sent people to kidnap you, right?”
“It was him! It must have been him! I discovered his business secret, and he was afraid I would expose him, so he kidnapped me
to warn me!” Vivi asserted resolutely.
The policewoman furrowed her brow, “What business secret do you know about him?”
Vivi pursed her lips. “He invested in Steven’s game, which served as a platform for online gambling.”
The policewoman and her partner exchanged glances.
In recent years, online gambling has become commonplace, with many individuals participating in activities like the online lottery
in WhatsApp groups, leading to financial ruin.
Law enforcement made significant efforts to combat online gambling, resulting in the emergence of more diverse and covert
forms of such activities.
This included the utilization of games where gambling elements were incorporated into the gameplay.
The process involved purchasing game coins, winning money within the game, and subsequently converting the virtual currency
back into real money upon leaving the game.
Steven’s intention to develop a game was widely known, generating significant attention and trending online.
The fact that Boris invested in Steven’s game was known to everyone as a result.
If they were truly engaging in gambling within the game, as Vivi claimed, then their actions constituted a crime.
Observing that they believed her story, Vivi continued to drop a bombshell. “I have evidence in my possession.”

She handed the evidence to the policewoman and watched as their expressions grew increasingly serious, realizing that Boris
was destined for imprisonment.
All the evidence had been provided by Sean.
Although Vivi couldn’t comprehend its contents, Sean had told her that with this evidence, Boris would end up behind bars, even
if he didn’t meet his demise.

 

Indeed…
Ten minutes later.
After reviewing the evidence, the policewoman spoke earnestly. “Miss Colin, thank you providing this evidence. We will conduct a
thorough investigation.”
Vivi nodded, her voice choked with sobs. “I had warned him that what he was doing was illegal, asking him not to proceed. He
didn’t listen. At that time, I loved him and couldn’t bear to expose him. But… I never could have imagined that he would disfigure
me and get together with Ziana!
“I cannot tolerate his betrayal! I initially thought I could use this incident to threaten him and make him come back to me. But…
He actually wanted to kill me!” She covered her face and wept sorrowfully. “What did I do wrong? Why would he treat me like
this?”
The policewoman sighed with sympathy.
Now they understood why she had reported the incident. Ultimately, it was a matter of being wounded by love.
“Miss Colin, rest assured that if this is true, we will ensure he faces the full extent of the law.”
Get Borus
Vivi expressed her gratitude, saying, “I trust you. I hope you investigate because I’m afraid they will destroy the evidence if they
find out I’ve reported them.”
“Very well! Don’t worry! We’ll establish an investigation team right away!”
Vivi left the police station and went straight to Sean’s residence.
Upon seeing her through the peephole, Sean opened the door with a cold expression.
“What did the police say? Did they believe you?” Sean asked straightforwardly as soon as she entered.
Vivi conveyed the situation to him, stating. “Upon reviewing those documents, they informed me that they will initiate the
investigation immediately.”

Upon hearing this, Sean breathed a sigh of relief.
Boris was hospitalized in a state of unconsciousness, yet Sean remained vigilant, not daring to underestimate the situation.
Sean had to sever all of Boris’ possible escape routes.
Even if Boris didn’t meet his demise, by the time he regained consciousness, the entire Lewis family would have long fallen into
his grasp.
Hence, Sean had to race against time.
“I have done as you requested, so when will you give me the promised sum of 20 million dollars?” Vivi asked, afraid that he
would go back on his word. She quickly added, “You made a promise to me!”

The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee By Vera Whitehead Chapter 401-410

Chapter 401 Sean’s Discovery
“What did you say?” Boris asked casually.
He just finished the recording of the show and was walking out of the studio. It was noisy, so he could only hear Steven’s crying.
In Boris‘ impression, Steven was always fussy, so he didn’t take it seriously.
However, a heart–piercing wailing sounded the next moment. “Ziana! Ziana just fainted! And she was sent to the emergency
room!”
Boris stopped abruptly, and the people following him also subconsciously stopped.
“Mr. Lewis?”
The director of the TV station asked carefully. However, Boris hung up the phone without saying a word and just ran away.
He strode into the car and closed the door in a hurry. The sports car rushed out like an arrow off the bow in an instant.
The head of the station was puzzled. He thought seeing Boris‘ leaving in a hurry must have something to do with Vivi.
In the car.
Boris told Nell, “Drive faster.”
Nell looked at Boris in the rearview mirror. Boris got into the car in a hurry just now, and now his face was so pale as never seen.
He frowned and asked worriedly, “Mr. Lewis, what’s the matter? Did you have a headache again?”
However, Boris‘ hands and legs were shaking uncontrollably, and he just kept muttering, “Hurry up. Please drive faster!”
Seeing that he was not in good condition, Nell didn’t dare to ask anymore. He pressed the accelerator hard along the way and
quickly rushed to the hospital.
Before Nell went over to help Boris, Boris had already gotten out of the car and staggered upstairs.
Nell also hurriedly followed Boris. As he walked, he gradually realized that the way was wrong. He then saw the emergency
room, and Steven, who was waiting outside the emergency room.

“What’s going on?”
There was a stern voice that sounded when Nell was guessing wildly.
“Steven!” Boris gritted his teeth and shouted.
Steven was sitting against the wall with his forehead resting on his hands. When he heard the shouting, he immediately raised
his head. His eyes were swollen from crying and looked very scary.
Steven stood up abruptly and walked over while leaning on the wall. “Boris… Boris… I’m so scared!”
Boris strode over, grabbed Steven by the collar, and pulled him over.
There was a chill in Boris‘ eyes. He asked icily, “Say it again. Who fainted?”
“Ziana!” Steven took a deep breath and said, “It was Ziana. When I was going to drive back, I saw a woman in front of me about
to fall to the ground in the parking lot, so I kindly helped her up, and then I found it was Ziana. She then fainted, and her

breathing was very rapid.”
Boris flung Steven away. He paced back and forth and then took out a cigarette from his pocket, bit it, and lit it.
He took a deep breath and calmed down gradually. “She will be fine. How long has she been in the emergency room?”
“It’s been more than half an hour.” Steven asked in a daze, “Boris, what is wrong with Ziana?”
Boris remembered that Ziana fainted last time when they were in the private restaurant.
He pondered for a moment and then said to Nell, “Notify the chief of the hospital and call the best medical resources in Japera
City.”
Nell was aware of what Ziana meant to Boris.
If something happened to Ziana, Boris would go crazy, and everyone would be miserable.
Nell was apprehensive and didn’t dare to tarry, so he turned around to do what he was told after hearing that. Unexpectedly, the
door of the emergency room opened at this moment.
Steven immediately called out, “Doctor!”

 

Boris also trotted over.
Steven asked, “Doctor! Where is the patient? How is she? I have to go in and take a look at her!”
“The patient is fine, and she has regained consciousness.” While the doctor was speaking, Ziana was pushed out.
Boris and Steven immediately stopped pestering the doctor and came to the hospital bed one after another.
Ziana’s eyes were open, but her eyes were empty. She was like wandering and thinking of something, and she seemed to be
trapped in her world.
“Ziana,” Boris leaned over and called her softly.
Ziana turned her head slowly, and her dilated pupils slowly focused.
“Boris?”
Ziana felt that the handsome and profound facial face in front of her was the same as in memory. It looked ruthless and
passionate.
Boris looked at Ziana so intently that made her couldn’t tell for a moment whether this was reality. or a memory.
Boris sensed that something was wrong with Ziana. He frowned slightly and said in a gentle voice, “It’s me, Ziana. I’m here. How
do you feel now?”
Ziana shook her head. She slowly raised her hand and stroked Boris‘ cheek.
Boris‘ warm skin was just against her fingertips, and she could even feel the trickle of blood flowing under his skin.
“Boris,” Ziana murmured again.
“Yes, I’m here.” Boris lowered his body and knelt on one knee beside the bed. “What’s wrong?”
Ziana shook her head again. Looking at the face in front of her, she recalled the man who had one eye pierced miserably five
years ago.
Ziana touched the outline of Boris‘ eyebrows and eyes with one hand.

Boris‘ body was slightly stiff, and he looked at Ziana motionlessly.

 

She drew circles on his left eye with her fingers.
The numb feeling made Boris realize something, and he couldn’t help but look at Ziana in surprise.
“You…” Boris held Ziana’s hand nervously. He still looked calm, but he was very nervous inwardly.
He wanted to ask Ziana if she remembered something, but he was also afraid that his question. would arouse her suspicion if
she didn’t remember it..
Boris pursed his lips and looked at Ziana. Under her gaze, he finally said gently, “Let’s go back to the ward first, okay?”
After saying that, he carried her up. Seeing this, Nell and Steven quickly stepped up to follow them.
They left in a mighty way, but they didn’t know that there was a camera behind them that captured these scenes.
When they were completely out of sight, Sean put his phone away.
Flipping through the photos he took, his expression became puzzled and playful.
He didn’t know that Boris had something to do with Ziana.
And he didn’t know when they had the relationship.
If Boris passed his affection to another woman after Vivi was disfigured, it would be difficult for Sean.
If Boris no longer liked Vivi, then it would be useless for Sean to hold Vivi. Vivi would no longer be a way Sean could use to
threaten Boris.
Sean knew Boris very well. He had always been indifferent and ruthless to people who he didn’t care about, and could even be
cruel sometimes.
Therefore, Sean had to figure out the relationship between Boris and Ziana.
With gloomy eyes, Sean turned around and went upstairs.
Ten minutes later.
He stood outside the door of Vivi’s ward..

“Tap–tap…”
After knocking several times, Sean got no response. He then pushed open the door with a sneer.
As soon as he entered the ward, there was a huge living room. He walked through it and went directly to the bedroom.
Boris treated Vivi well, and Vivi was living in a luxurious single ward.
However, men were all superficial. Vivi was now disfigured, so it was normal for Boris to pass his affection to another.
While thinking, Sean came to the door of the bedroom.
Vivi was watching TV.
Half of her face was wrapped in bandages, but her severely corroded skin still could be seen.
When Sean saw it, he felt sick. He knocked on the bedroom door with a cold face.
Vivi was lying on the bed. When she heard the knock on the door, she came back to her senses in shock. And when she saw
Sean, she immediately panicked. “Why are you here? You shouldn’t be here! Boris is coming soon! What if he sees us and
suspects us?”
“He and I are cooperative partners now. It’s normal both emotionally and rationally when I come to visit you after something like
this happened. But…” Sean paused deliberately, and then said meaningfully, “I’m afraid he doesn’t have time to care about you.
He’s with another woman now.”

Chapter 402 Being Tricked
“What do you mean?” Vivi asked nervously, “What did you see? Who was he with? Which shameless bitch is hooking up with my
man? Tell me, I’ll rip her face off!”
After Vivi was disfigured, she wanted to disfigure all the women she saw!
Sean squinted his eyes and said, “You seem to care about Boris a lot.”
“…”
“Are you going to betray me?” Sean suddenly grabbed Vivi’s neck and asked sullenly.
Vivi subconsciously shook her head, but she was thinking differently.
Boris didn’t abandon her after her disfigurement, which moved her very much.
Vivi felt that Boris was sincere with her and that if she wanted to cure her face, she would have to use a lot of money.
If she cooperated with Sean, she would only get 20 million dollars when it was successful. However, the treatment of her face
would cost more than half of it.
She would have not much left.
Vivi wanted to betray Sean and use Boris to get rid of Sean, then what she did would become an eternal secret!
The most important thing was that Boris could help Vivi heal her face. And when they got married, she could share all his assets.
That would be more than 20 million dollars and even tens of billions!
These days, Vivi had been thinking about this matter, but she didn’t expect to be nailed by Sean! But she couldn’t admit it no
matter what!
“I didn’t!” Feeling the tightening tension on her neck, Vivi denied, “I really didn’t! Cough… Cough! You’re holding onto me… How
could I betray you? I know… Cough… I will have nothing if I don’t cooperate with you!”
Sean didn’t think Vivi was pretty before. After she was disfigured, her expression of begging for mercy now looked even more
hideous.

He threw her away in disgust and said, “You better have no disloyalty! You will have a way to survive if you cooperate with me.
But if you don’t, you will wish you were dead. Moreover, Boris seems to dating another woman.
F
“What?” Vivi was surprised. “Are you sure?”
Sean snorted. He took out his phone and showed Vivi the photo.
Vivi stared at the screen and said with her teeth gritted, “Ziana! She still doesn’t give up on Boris!”
“You know about them?” Sean raised his eyebrows. “How long have they been together? When did you know about it?”
Judging by Boris‘ attitude towards Ziana, Sean thought Ziana was Boris‘ new love.
If Sean could have Ziana, he would have a better chance of winning when he threatened Boris.

Vivi said angrily, “They had been married before! And they even have a baby! Ziana held a press conference to clarify this matter
before, and her ex–husband is Boris!”
“What?”
This news was tantamount to thunder on the ground.
Sean was stunned. He repeated it in disbelief, “They had been married before and even have a baby? When did this happen?
Why didn’t I know about it?”
Talking about this, Vivi became even angrier. “I don’t know! When I was abroad, Boris didn’t let me go back. I didn’t want to upset
him, so I just stayed abroad. I never knew that he secretly married behind my back!”
Sean asked anxiously, “Then when did you know about it?”
“By the time I found out, they were already divorced! And they had even given birth to a baby! If I had known about it, I would
never have let Ziana give birth to that little bastard! I don’t know how
Ziana made Boris marry her!
“I knew she wouldn’t give up! She pretended to be pure on the surface, but she was more shameless. than anyone else!

 

“Boris is my man now, and she’s the third woman between us! I’m going to find someone to ruin her face!
“Let’s see how she seduces men without her pretty face!”
Vivi kept scolding. Sean was annoying. He couldn’t stand it and growled, “Enough! Stop it, or I’ll strangle you to death!”
Vivi was frightened and didn’t dare to speak immediately.
The ward became extremely quiet, which was very conducive for Sean to think.
He pondered for half an hour and then suddenly cursed in a low voice, “Damn it, I was tricked!”
After Boris carried Ziana into the ward, Ziana still refused to let go of him.
Boris smiled helplessly and looked at Ziana fondly. He had no choice but to hold her as what she wanted.
“Clingy girl,” he teased.
Ziana didn’t say anything. She just hugged him quietly, as if thinking about something.
Seeing this, Boris stopped making any sound.
They hugged each other for a long time.
After about an hour, Ziana let go of Boris and said, “You can go now. I want to take some rest. It was about nine o’clock at night.
“Okay.” Boris knew Ziana’s schedule, so he just said softly, “Get some sleep, I’ll be outside. By the way, do you want me to call
Yudel to come?”
“No!” Ziana said hastily.
She didn’t want her family to know that she found Lee to hypnotize her.
Boris looked at Ziana deeply and said, “But your family will contact you if you don’t go home. Have you thought about a reason?”
Ziana shook her head.
“Then let me call them.” Boris made the decision for her.

“Is this proper?”

 

“Why isn’t it proper?” Boris smiled slightly with a dissolute expression on his face. “Yudel called me when he couldn’t contact you
on the night you were drugged. I told him that you were with me, and he just hung up the phone after he told me to take good
care of you.‘
Ziana suddenly understood.
No wonder her family didn’t deal with Lewis Company ruthlessly after Boris divorced her.
No wonder her family was partial to Boris when Boris went to Scott family’s castle.
Ziana felt strange at that time, but the reason for all those had been answered at this moment.
Therefore, she couldn’t help being even more curious about what the other half of her memory was.
At first, she thought that she and Boris had broken up, and her parents found someone to hypnotize her because she wanted to
forget the pain of losing love, but she didn’t expect that when she chose her fiancé three years ago, she chose him again.
Now It seemed that her guess was too superficial.
And even…
Her family acquiesced to showing Boris‘ photos to her three years ago.
Ziana wanted to find her master as soon as possible to help her regain her memories!
At this moment, the tip of her nose was gently touched.
Ziana came back to her senses and met the handsome face in front of her.
Boris leaned over to look at her and asked, “Do you want me to call for you? It took you so long to think about it.”
She pushed him away and said, “Call them.”
“Okay.”
Boris didn’t leave. He made a call in front of Ziana with the speakerphone on for her to listen to.
Soon, Yudel’s voice sounded. “What?”

“Yudel,” Boris said respectfully, “Ziana will stay with me tonight.”
“Okay.”
Yudel hung up the phone after saying that.
Boris looked at Ziana and said, “It’s done.”
“Okay.” Ziana yawned and said, “You can leave now.”
“Good night,” Boris said while walking out. When he was about to reach the door, he turned around suddenly and said, “Right, I
forgot one thing.”
While lifting the quilt, Ziana looked over suspiciously and asked, “What is it?”
Boris walked over with a smile, held Ziana’s face with both hands and kissed her on the lips.
While kissing, he answered vaguely, “I forgot to take advantage of you.”
Ziana was speechless.
They kissed for a while.
When Boris let go of Ziana, Ziana looked blank. The sparkling dampness on the corner of her mouth accused Boris of greed.
Boris smiled and comforted Ziana, “Have a good sleep. I’ll be outside.”
After Boris left the ward, his expression became gloomy and completely different. He looked so cold and cruel at this moment.
“Nell,” he said icily, “Have you found out why Ziana came to the hospital?”

Chapter 403 Sean’s Identity
“Ms. Scott went to the gynecology department, but she didn’t register. She sat outside the consulting room of Dr. Brown for an
entire afternoon. After Dr. Brown got off work, she went into his consulting room and stayed there for more than three hours.”
Nell played the video he found for Boris and continued, “Ms. Scott looked pale when she came out of the consulting room, and
she walked staggeringly. What we can know is that she was fine when she came in the afternoon.”
“Ziana went to the gynecology department? Is she pregnant?” Steven asked, “She didn’t want to have your baby, so she asked
Dr. Brown to secretly deal with it!”.
“Get away!” Boris glared at Steven and said, “She can’t be pregnant.”
Boris took measures that night, and Ziana took pills afterward. With double insurance, how could she be pregnant?
The only time Boris forced Ziana to give birth to a baby was a year ago.
He had already used the method of unscrupulously trying to form a bond with her and keep her, but it seemed to be useless.
“Then what is she doing at gynecology if she’s not pregnant?” Steven could only think of something like this in his head. “Could it
be that she has a gynecological disease?”
“Shut up if you can only fart with your mouth,” Boris said in disgust.
Steven argued, “I don’t fart with my mouth. Can you find someone who farts with his mouth?”
Nell was speechless. What they were talking about was a very serious matter, but it suddenly became very funny when Steven
got involved.
He couldn’t listen anymore, so he quickly smoothed things over and said, “Mr. Howard, do your miss the sheep in Firia?”
When it came to sheep, Steven was so frightened and stopped talking.
He hurriedly said, “Boris, I’ll go upstairs to see Vivi!”
Nell breathed a sigh of relief and resumed the previous topic. “Mr. Lewis, I checked and found that Ms. Scott is not pregnant.
After being sent to the emergency room, the doctor said that she fainted due to emotional agitation. Shall we ask Dr. Brown

about what happened before?”
“No need. Lee won’t tell us anything without Ziana’s consent. He is Ziana’s master, and we should treat him with respect and
kindness.”
“But you’re worrying about Ms. Scott.”
Boris was thoughtful.
Ziana was discharged the afternoon of the next day after she stopped feeling dizzy or hurt.
Boris suggested that she stay a few more days for observation, but she refused.
“I’m fine,” Ziana said.
Her fainting before was because those memories stimulated her brain too strongly.
“Will you faint if you are really fine?” Boris asked.
Ziana looked at him and said, “I want to see my master.”
Boris said calmly, “Which master?”

Ziana suddenly smiled.
She thought Boris was a very good actor.
For example, when Boris and she were in love five years ago, she told him that she had many masters.
Since Boris had recovered his memory, it was impossible for him not to know. However, his performance was tight at this
moment.
He deserved a Best Actor.
She followed his acting and said, “Lee Brown, the director of the gynecology department, is my master.”
Boris pretended to be surprised as if he just found out. He raised his eyebrows and said, “I’ll take you there.”
“No need,” Ziana refused. “You are still Vivi’s man, and I’m afraid of causing trouble.”

 

After saying that, Ziana pushed Boris away, walked through the corridor, and entered the elevator.
Lee was not very busy today. When Ziana came, only one patient was waiting outside Lee’s consulting room.
After the patient finished consulting, Ziana opened the door and went in.
Lee looked at her for a while and then said, “Did you faint yesterday?”
“No…”
“Don’t lie to me.” Lee frowned. “I can tell. I’m not surprised that you fainted after vomiting blood.”
Ziana shrugged. “Okay. Master Brown, I’m much better now. And I’m here to ask…”
“You want to ask me when I will give you the second acupuncture, right?” Lee said preemptively as if he could read Ziana’s mind.
Ziana was a little embarrassed. “Yes. Another part of the memory is very important to me…”
“But to me, your present life is more important!” Lee said sternly, “No matter what happened in the past, it can’t compare to your
present! I don’t want to make you a fool! Have you forgotten what I told you before the acupuncture?”
“I didn’t…”
“Then listen to me!” Lee calmed down a bit when he saw that Ziana was well–behaved. “Get out. I will decide according to your
situation about when to give you the second acupuncture!”
Ziana left without accomplishing anything. She knew that Lee was doing it for her good. She was just impatient.
After leaving Lee’s consulting room, Ziana didn’t go back to the ward but went home directly.
After waiting at home for five days, she still couldn’t help calling Lee to make an appointment, but he didn’t answer.
Ziana could only be cheeky and went to the hospital again.
However, when she arrived at the hospital, she was told that Lee went to a meeting in another city.
Ziana was helpless.
She couldn’t see Lee and couldn’t get in touch with him, so she had no choice but to leave.

However, there were many people in the hospital, and the elevator was very crowded.
When it was the ninth floor, some people got off, and it was much more spacious.
The elevator door closed slowly, and two middle–aged women began to whisper.
“That disease is untreatable!”
“The ninth floor is the hematology department. Generally, people who come here are seriously ill, like ha ing leukemia!”
“If ordinary people get this disease, the whole family will be ruined!”

“Yeah… It’s pitiful. The people who get that disease are pitiful, and their families are also pitiful…”
Ziana felt a little sad while listening to their conversation. When she inadvertently raised her eyes, she suddenly saw a familiar
figure.
The man was tall and had a unique temperament. His elite atmosphere clearly distinguished him from the people around him.
He was like a Triton of the minnows.
Besides him, some doctors were talking to him.
Ziana just took a glance and the elevator door was completely closed.
She couldn’t help being suspicious of what Sean was doing here in the hospital.
Five minutes later.
The elevator came to the lobby on the first floor.
Ziana didn’t leave but came to the hospital’s wall of fame.
There was an area dedicated to each department and its elite doctors.
She found the ninth floor, which was marked with Hematology Department. There was a row of photos and resumes of doctors
below it.
Although she just took a hasty glance, she had a photographic memory and could recognize anyone she had met.

 

Soon, she found the doctors she had just glimpsed.
[Eli Newton, Chief Physician and Professor of Hematology Department, Chairman of the Eighth Committee of Hematology
Society of Oslosall Medical Association. He is good at treating malignant hematological malignancies, such as leukemia,
lymphoma, MDS…]
[Spencer Violet, Department of Hematopathology, specializes in various benign and malignant diseases of the blood system, and
focuses on leukemia…..]
[Marcus Hunter, Hematology Department, specializes in leukemia…]
[Rod Cromwell specializes in leukemia and has a lot of research on the relapse of leukemia.]
Ziana was stunned.
She saw that there were four doctors beside department of hematology, and they even special.entally, all of those doctors were
in the in leukemia!
Ziana thought that Sean possibly got leukemia, or maybe he had leukemia.
Because among the four doctors, there was one who focused on the relapse of leukemia.
Ziana knew that Boris had always been curious about Sean’s identity and guessed that Sean had something to do with his dead
uncle and cousin.
If Sean had leukemia, it would be relatively easier to find his identity.
That would be a good point of penetration.
Thinking of this, Ziana quickly left the hospital. She rushed all the way home and then locked herself in the room.
She wrote a code within an hour. She then went to the computer room and turned on a dozen computers at the same time.
Half an hour later, all the computer screens were filled with endless green codes like in the movies.
They were shining non–stop by themselves as if they were searching for something.
Ziana waited patiently from noon to night.

After dinner, she went upstairs to have a look and found that there were results.
She walked to one of the computers. Looking at the things that popped up on the screen, she pressed the mouse lightly.
A medical record appeared on the screen. And the patient’s name was Erkan Lewis.

Chapter 404 You Can Finish It
Ziana’s expression became playful.
After thoroughly reviewing the information she had found, all her lingering doubts dissipated without a trace.
It turned out to be like this.
No wonder their DNA was different.
Boris must have wracked his brain but couldn’t have imagined that Erkan and Sean were the same people.
With this perspective, all of Sean’s actions became justifiable.
The inexplicable emails Sean sent to Boris now had explanations.
Ziana’s expression at that moment resembled the relief of solving a challenging puzzle.
She stared at the screen for a while, and suddenly her slender fingers moved across the keyboard, her movements flowing
smoothly.
Half an hour later.
“Done.”
Confidently and decisively, she shut down her computer and went to sleep.
Boris, who was in the hospital, received a notification on his phone indicating a new email.
While listening to Steven’s incessant chatter, Boris absentmindedly opened his inbox.
As soon as he saw the sender’s name, Boris‘ expression changed instantly.
It was an email with no identifiable sender.
He pondered for a moment.
Observing Boris‘ demeanor, Steven questioned. “Boris, are you even listening to me?” Boris replied bluntly.

Steven rolled his eyes in frustration and remarked, “Then what are you doing? Chatting with Ziana?”
After he finished speaking, he strode over, fixating his gaze on Boris‘ screen, his expression becoming increasingly perplexed.
“What? Who sent this? Can the sender really be blank? Wow! This is enlightening! Boris, click on it and take a look!”
Boris remained silent, contemplating his options.
Steven added, “Wait! Don’t click on it! What if it’s a virus?”
It was fine if he didn’t say that. As soon as those words left his mouth, Boris clicked on the email.
“Imagine if it’s a virus trying to steal all the information from your phone…” Steven muttered through clenched teeth.
The email contained several files.
Boris clicked on the topmost one, which happened to be a medical record.
“Erkan!” Steven exclaimed, quickly scanning through the contents. When he came across the word leukemia, he was
dumbfounded. “He had leukemia?”
Boris paid particular attention to the date on the medical record.

It was from seven years ago.
Two years prior to the unfortunate incident involving the Lewis family.
During that time, Boris was living abroad, studying, while Erkan was sent overseas to work at a company due to his uncle’s
connections.
He had a bad relationship with his parents, so he didn’t have much contact with the people in the family.
The only person he maintained contact with was his grandfather, Zezili, who called him every now and then to inquire about his
life and studies.
Boris had no idea that Erkan had leukemia, and he hadn’t come across this medical record during his investigation.
It was evident that someone intentionally concealed the medical record.
Boris‘ face remained unchanged, and he continued to open the second document.

 

This time, it was a consent form for a bone marrow transplant, along with all the information about the donor.
From this, it could be deduced that Erkan had leukemia, found a matching bone marrow donor, and underwent surgery
successfully.
The third file was even more astonishing. It seemed to have been obtained from somewhere, showing a before–and–after
comparison of a patient’s plastic surgery.
The before picture was Erkan, and the after picture was Sean.
This comparative photo was strong evidence that Sean was Erkan.
“Damn!” Steven had been muttering the word damn since the beginning. Now, after reading all the documents, he felt like his
worldview had been completely reshaped. “This is… Incredibly…
Mind–boggling! Who sent this email? Is everything written in it true?”
“It is true,” Boris replied, “Do you remember when we were at that restaurant, and I dropped my fork on the floor? Do you recall
Sean’s reaction at that time?”
“I remember.” Steven nodded. “Wasn’t his reaction quite normal? Anyone else would have picked up the fork.”
“But he used his left hand.” Boris reminded him. “Erkan is also left-handed.”
“What?” Steven realized belatedly. “So, Boris, you suspected back then that he was Erkan?”
“It was just a suspicion, no evidence. I asked Nell to investigate the doctor who declared Erkan dead all those years ago. We
should have the results soon.”
As soon as Boris finished speaking, Nell made a phone call.
On the other end of the phone, Nell discovered that the doctor had received favors from Erkan in the past, so the doctor had
falsified the death report.
Boris hung up the phone and nodded at Steven. “He is indeed Erkan.”
Steven exclaimed, “Shocked! Utterly shocked! This is mind–blowing!”

He was speechless and said, “So, Sean is actually Erkan, your cousin! But I still can’t understand why his DNA would change!”
“You should read more books,” Boris said disdainfully, “Under normal circumstances, a person’s

DNA doesn’t change. However, bone marrow transplants involve the infusion of hematopoietic stem cells to treat a range of
diseases and rebuild the patient’s normal blood and immune system. Hence, it is possible to alter a person’s DNA.”
Steven nodded repeatedly. Though in reality, he only understood the last sentence.
“I see,” he said softly, then asked, “Who sent this email? How could they be so amazing?”
Loris smirked. “It was a secret girl.”
“What?”
Boris approached him to borrow his phone, saying, “Let me use it for a moment.‘
Don’t you have one of your own?” Although Steven uttered these words, he succumbed to the overpowering presence and
handed over his phone.
Boris entered a string of numbers and made a call.
The ringtone sounded twice, only to be met with a message indicating that the phone was turned off. He let out a faint chuckle,
knowing that his beloved secret girl was fast asleep.
“Here you go.” Boris handed the phone back to Steven, abruptly changing the subject. “Once we know his identity and intentions,
we can close in on him.”
Boris wanted to trap and deal with Sean, but at this moment, Sean also wanted to get rid of Boris as quickly as possible.
Sean truly despised Boris!
Because Sean never expected that he would fall into the trap set by the other party! But who could have anticipated that Boris
had such deep scheming?
Everyone outside believed that Vivi was his beloved, thinking that by controlling Vivi, they could easily manipulate him and defeat
him!

 

But it wasn’t true!
It was all an illusion!
What infuriated him even more was that he had completely fallen for it!
Sean was furious to the point of going crazy!
Boris pushed Vivi forward just to use her as a shield!
He didn’t care at all about Vivi’s life!
So, the current Vivi, in his eyes, was merely a pawn held in his hand!
The most crucial pawn that had now become a discarded pawn. Did this mean all his previous efforts and strategies were in
vain?
Sean let out a low roar and pounded the wall with two fierce punches.
Due to his intense emotions, he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. His face turned pale, and he hastily grabbed a handful
of medicine, swallowing it down.
Aiew years ago, he battled leukemia, and although he had recovered through a successful bone marrow transplant, it had
recently relapsed.
Sean breathed heavily, expressing his deep dissatisfaction and grievances.
Why did he always encounter such misfortune?
He cursed the treacherous Boris and the useless Vivi. Suddenly, his cursing came to an abrupt halt.
He realized there was one thing that only Vivi could do. If she succeeded, he could turn the tables in his showdown with Boris.

Chapter 405 Vivi Knew She was Patsy
The thought made Sean excited.
He gave up sleeping and headed straight to Vivi’s ward at the hospital, then pushed the door and entered as if no one was
inside.
Vivi Was trying to get some rest. She jumped at the sight of him and tightened her clothes. “What do you want?”
Sean mocked her sarcastically. “You weren’t much of a looker before you were defaced, and you look even worse now. Don’t be
so self–sentimental.”
Vivi hated others mentioning her face right now. She thought of all the insults she could think of at Sean.
She dared not resist and said coldly. “What are you doing here in the middle of the night? Who let you in? What if Boris sees
you?”
“He’s here?” Sean asked knowingly.
Vivi gritted her teeth. “No!”
Everyone knew that Boris was staying with her at the hospital. But she, in fact, did not know where he was.
He visited her every afternoon for about ten minutes, then disappeared.
Sean looked at her. “I’ll tell you a story, then.”
Vivi had no idea what he meant. But in her eyes, Sean was a maniac and never played by the book..
She knew she had no chance against a raging maniac, so she conceded. “Fine then.”
Sean sneered. “Ever heard of Erkan Lewis?”
Vivi nodded. “You mean the dead guy?”
She wanted to marry Boris, so she memorized everything about his family and could recall at ease.
Sean shook his head, then pointed at himself. “No, I am Erkan.”

“What?” Vivi was shocked. “That’s not funny, Sean!”
Sean scoffed, then spoke the tale of the bone marrow transplant from seven years ago, the infighting of the Lewis family five
years ago, about how Boris made attempts at his life, and he had no choice but to pay off the doctor to fake his own death with a
fake body and a forged death certificate, then snuck away from Boris.

Vivi was dumbstruck.
“If that comes as a shock,” said Sean, “wait till you hear this. What if I tell you that Boris never liked you, and it was a sham from
the start when he brought you from abroad and announced your engagement? Wouldn’t you be even more shocked to learn that
he decided to have you as his patsy from that moment forth?”
Vivi was at a loss for words. “What… What do you mean?”
Sean just smiled.
Vivi yelled madly. “Speak sense! What sham, what patsy? What the hell are you talking about?”
“It began with a mail one year ago.”
The night was long, and Vivi got more frightened the more she heard, and she was at a loss for words for a long time after Sean
finished.
“Tut, tut,” Sean looked at her and shook his head. “Truth be told, I was indeed the one that kidnapped you, but it was all because
of Boris. If you weren’t affiliated with him… No, if he hadn’t gone public about you, I wouldn’t have directed my hatred towards
him on you, and everything else wouldn’t have happened.”
“You… You animal!” Vivi maniacally yelled. “You’re all animals!”
“You only have Boris to blame!” Sean stirred her up. “He hurt you for the woman he cared most about without a conscience; he
must die!”
Vivi always thought Boris treated her quite weird.
Did Boris like her? He kept his distance. Didn’t he like her? He kept showing her off in front of everyone.
Now after hearing Sean’s tale, it all made sense.

 

Of course!
She remembered Boris came to her at the villa that time, when she called Ziana a homewrecker.
He was so intimidating back then; it still made her shudder at the thought of it now.
“You still have some use for me,” he said as he left.
She never understood what she meant until now. He needed her… to be his patsy.
Why?
And for what?
“Why!” She squealed, her hands slapping on the bed. “Why did he do this to me! How could he do this to me!”

“Heh. You’re not seriously thinking him a good guy, are you?” Sean whispered in her car. “He’s responsible for agony, your
misfortune. He hurt you without conscience to protect Ziana. Are you gonna just submit and let him go like that?”
“No!” Vivi maliciously growled. “I’ll have him dead! I’ll have Ziana dead!”
“Excellent!” Sean narrowed his eyes. “Now, do something for me. When it’s done, both Boris and Ziana will be dead before you.
Vivi clenched her fists and said maniacally. “Yes, dead! Both dead! I want them both dead!”
Two days later.
Ziana received Vivi’s message on the phone.
[Bitch! Why are you still seducing Boris when you’re divorced from him? Give Boris back, please!]
She frowned and deleted the message.
But right then, another message appeared.
[Do you know how sweet he and I used to be? How loving we were? Miss Scott, I want to see you about Boris. Give him back to
me, please! I saved his life, and you took him away from me. Have you no shame at all?]
Ziana wanted to ignore her, yet almost every word of these messages incurred her wrath.

 

She wanted to know what went on between Boris and Vivi back when she lost her memories.
She anted to know if he really did love others as he loved her back when they forgot about each other.
The same weakness of a woman ran inside her, however outstanding she became.
When a woman started to care, she unconsciously began to fuss over and compare.
She’d begun to fuss over whether she was unique and irreplaceable in the eyes of the love of her life.
To fuss over if he would love another the same way as her, after herself.
She wanted very much to know.
Besides.
Like hell, Vivi Colin saved his life.
For three years, she kept Boris in her lies. Wasn’t that enough?
And now Vivi was gonna drag Ziana in as well?
Sorry mate.
She would not stand for this.
Ziana typed in and sent a reply with a poker face.
[Time and address.]
Vivi wanted to scream when she received the reply.
She forwarded the exact address given by Sean to Ziana.
Ziana drove away from the villa alone and headed for the rendezvous point.

The address Vivi sent was a renowned coffee shop downtown, just two blocks away from the hospital.
Half an hour later, Ziana parked her car and stood at the gate.
People were getting off work, and the streets were crowded. The night of this city had just begun.
She touched her pocket before she made her way in.
The familiar shape made her instantly feel safe.
She looked around, then entered the coffee shop.
“Greetings and welcome.”
The greeting dolls at the door gave a welcoming voice.
“Greetings, ma’am. What can I get you?”
The waiter asked kindly as she passed by the ordering table.
Ziana pulled down her hat, waved at him, and headed up to the third floor.
The third floor was decorated with a classic Middle Age style. The sound of the cello flowed like soft water.
Ziana came up and saw two gorgeously dressed girls with their backs facing her, learning to bake cookies with the baker.
The third floor of this coffee shop included a DIY shack, where the baker would come and mentor sometimes.
As she passed them, she could hear the girls’ giggling, and a smile curled up her lips.
But her smile vanished instantly as she glanced at the woman sitting in the corner.
She walked over with a cold face, pulled away the chair, and sat down to look coldly at the woman before her.
“Vivi Colin,” she said.
Vivi gritted her teeth and yelled as she heard her name called. “Ziana, you shameless bitch!”
She was all covered up today, wearing a wide hat, with half her face masked and half behind sunglasses.

Although her face was covered up, it must have been hideous to look at.
But Ziana merely shrugged. “I’m not here to argue with you. You said you’re here to talk about Boris. Go on.”
“Hah!” Vivi scoffed, placing a large box on the table.
Ziana stayed on her guard as she opened it. She quietly put her hand in her pocket and touched her small stun gun.
She stared at the box, which opened slowly, revealing various gifts.
Vivi took up the gift and introduced each of them to her as if she was showing off.
“This is the golden jade he gave me on Valentine’s Day, the first year we were together.”

“This, he gave me on my first birthday.”
“This is my…”
Ziana interrupted her. “You called me here just for this?”
“I…”
Suddenly, at that moment, a girl ran towards them and tripped over at the desk. She fell flat on the floor.
Ziana recognized that this was one of the baking girls.
The girl was only 3 feet tall. She fell with her face down, not moving, not even crying. Nothing at all.
Ziana reckoned she was about seven or eight. She began to worry if there was something wrong with her.
She hurried to the girl and flipped her over.
The girl’s face darkened, and her eyes shut tight. Things were looking bad.
Ziana was about to give her first aid. She was laying the girl down flat when her eyes suddenly flung open.
Ziana was shocked and realized that this was no kid at all. This was a dwarf-like, full-grown woman!
The woman was holding something in her hand, and at that moment, she sprayed it at Ziana’s eyes.

 

Ziana was quick to react and tried to evade, but the two of them were too close.
The unidentified liquid flew into her eyes.
In that instant.
The searing heat made her tears flow, and her eyes went dark.
“Vivi Colin!”
Ziana took a few unbalanced steps backward. She was furious. She didn’t expect Vivi would do something like this in open
public.
This was the most popular commercial district in Japera City and the most renowned coffee shop, where people come and go all
the time. She’s nuts!
Ziana dared not touch her eyes. She knew full well at this moment that she needed to leave at once.
But she also knew that Vivi would never let her escape so easily if she dared to pull something like this.
As she expected.
Right then.
Vivi’s cackle came in front of her from the left.
“Ziana! I got you at last!”
She walked close to her and grabbed her hair. She wanted to cheer at her agony.

“I’ll get you back for every last bit of insult you’ve given me!” She gritted her teeth and gave her a slap.
Now!
Ziana held on to her pain and took an air gun from her pocket. She pulled the trigger, and a lead bullet shot out.
The bullet hit Vivi’s face point blank. Blood splattered everywhere.
Ziana felt the warm splatter on her face. She sneered and bolted.

 

It didn’t matter she couldn’t see. She remembered her way in!
Vivi screamed out loud. She touched the blood on her face, and yelled in madness. “Why are you still standing there, you
morons! Get her! Bring her to me! I’ll kill her! I’ll have her hides today!”
Everyone on the third floor moved.
They blocked Ziana’s path of escape, and a few of them tried to intercept her.
“Get her! Get her now!”
Vivi Colin went utterly insane!
Several people looked at each other and surrounded Ziana. Then, all at once, they threw themselves at her.
Some of them tried to grab Ziana’s arms, others her legs.
They weren’t expecting her so quick to react despite being blinded. She ducked and squeezed out of the crowd.
Ziana continued to charge forward.
She knew she was five steps from the stairs.
But then…
BANG!
Someone kicked her in the abdomen, and she was immediately out of breath and fell onto the floor, coughing.
Several men hurried forward and tied her up.
Vivi got up from the floor. She pushed away the people around and slapped Ziana with both her hands.
“You’re dead!” Vivi yelled at her maliciously. “You’re dead meat! I’m gonna choke you!”
She said and tried to grab Ziana’s neck. But then, someone shoved her aside.
“Take your insanity somewhere else!” Sean gave Vivi a warning look.
Vivi pouted and accused. “But my face…”

“Your face was already messed up,” Sean ignored her and turned to Ziana. “Sorry about all this, Miss Scott. I’m here to clear
your doubts. Since you’re so eager to find out who comes first with Boris, you or Vivi, I got an idea that could find out.”
“Sean Yates!” Ziana recognized his voice.
“In the flesh!” Sean smiled coolly; his voice sounded like a snake slithering through the skin. “Let’s put on a show and see who
Boris would pick, alright?”
He then took away Ziana’s phone, then had his men take away all electronic devices she carried.
“Get her out of here!” He said in the end.

The night grew increasingly dark as the lush greenery of the small forest surrounded the Arte villa.
The landscaping of this villa complex had been impeccably done.
Darlene leaned against the bedroom window, holding a glass of red wine in her left hand and gripping her phone with her right
hand.
Suddenly, her phone vibrated.
She quickly answered the call, suppressing her excitement and nervousness, and asked in a low
voice, “How did it go? Did it work out?”
On the other end, Sean chuckled. “You can rejoice.”
“We caught Ziana?” Darlene exclaimed with excitement, then remembering the close call with
Boris, she gritted her teeth and said, “If you hadn’t coincidentally seen him with Ziana, we might have been fooled by him. Boris
is not ordinary. His thoughts are terrifying. This time, you must be extremely careful and cautious. No room for any mishaps!”
“What are you afraid of?”
“Why wouldn’t there be fear? This is a matter of life and death for you and me. Either we eliminate him, or he eliminates us! I
don’t want to die!” Darlene scolded. “You know, you must take this seriously!”
“Ziana is in our hands. What are you afraid of?” Sean smugly replied, “And besides, he still doesn’t. know my true identity. He

probably still considers me his partner! Once I stab him in the back, he will definitely die!”
“Did you take care of things at the café today?”
“Yes.” Sean chuckled softly. “It’s all taken care of.”
“Good!” Darlene, feeling the plan was about to succeed, couldn’t help but rub her hands together. “When do you plan to inform
Boris?”
“As soon as we arrive at the location,” he said nonchalantly, “At the latest, by tomorrow, he will disappear completely from this
world. What you asked me to do will be successful. And you, have you thought about how to reward me?”

 

Darlene’s cheeks flushed, and she muttered, “I’ll be waiting for your good news tomorrow!”
Just then, the sound of a car came from a distance.
She quickly said, “I won’t talk to you anymore. My father is back, and I need to tell him this good news right away!”
Darlene hung up the phone and hurriedly made her way to the hallway, running down the stairs.
She heard the sound of the car outside coming to a stop. Taking a deep breath, she couldn’t conceal
the smile on her face.
But after waiting for two minutes, she didn’t wait for her father to show up. Instead, she heard a popping sound from outside.
What was happening?
Curiously, she walked over, filled with suspicion.
At the same time.

Outside the door.
Nell smashed the camera hanging at the entrance and turned to Boris. “Mr. Lewis, we’re good to go!”
Boris waved his hand and instructed his men. “Break down the door!”
Several black-clad bodyguards approached in unison, raising their legs and fiercely kicking the door.
The door was kicked open, and a high-pitched scream followed.
Everyone turned to the sound and saw a woman pinned under the broken door panel!
Nell immediately ordered. “Bring her over!”
The bodyguards swung open the door panel, only to be greeted by Darlene, her face covered in blood from the impact!
Darlene, at that moment, also recognized the person before her, and a surge of fear washed over her. “You! Boris! What… What
are you doing?”

 

“Miss Arte, I kindly invite you to be my guest for a few days.” Boris stated concisely. “Can’t you tell?”
“I… I… I…” Darlene stammered, her words incoherent. “I don’t know what I’ve done! Why are you kidnapping me? This is
illegal!”
Boris chuckled. “Miss Arte, I am well aware of your collaboration with Erkan. Tell me, if I were to use you as a pawn against him,
do you think he would willingly meet his demise for your sake?”
‘You…” Darlene was simply too astonished to find the right words. “You… You! Who is Erkan? I don’t know him!”
“Sean… Should I make myself any clearer?” Boris sneered, no longer interested in her futile attempts at denying the truth. “Take
her away!”
Nell gestured with his hand, and Darlene’s mouth was immediately gagged. Darlene tried to struggle, but one of the bodyguards
swiftly delivered a chop to her neck, causing her to faint.
Boris casually rubbed his neck and walked away at a leisurely pace.
Just then, he received a text message.

There was only a single photograph above.
Ziana was bound to a chair, her eyes covered with a black cloth, appearing disheveled and pitiable, drenched from head to toe.
Boris could barely hold the phone in his hand.
Upon witnessing this, Nell quickly stepped over, helping to catch it, and asked, perplexed, “Mr. Lewis?”
Boris paid no attention, took a deep breath, his face frosty and composed, and swiftly dialed the number back.
The other person answered promptly.
It was an unfamiliar voice. After reporting the time and address in one sentence, warning him that only one person was allowed
to come, the person simply hung up the phone.
Boris squeezed the phone tightly, wanting to crush it.
Sensing the heavy atmosphere around him, Nell tentatively inquired, “Mr. Lewis, what… What’s happening?”
Boris handed him the phone.
After finishing reading, Nell looked at Boris with increasing concern and questioned. “Could this be a fabrication?”
“Whether it is true or false, time is running out. I’ll drive over first, and you stay here to handle a few things.” Boris responded,
forcefully pulling Nell away from the driver’s seat, starting the car, and giving instructions. “First, confirm the truth of Mrs. Lewis’
disappearance. Second, use the SkyEye system to locate Sean. Third, inform our people to rush for support.”

“Understood! Mr. Lewis, you can trust me! I’ll take care of it right away!” Nell assured.
Having been by Boris’ side for a long time, Nell was very familiar with his way of doing things.
Boris glanced at Darlene, who had fainted in the back seat, deep in thought, and pressed down on the accelerator.
On the way, Nell called to report the situation.
“We couldn’t reach Mrs. Lewis. Upon learning this, the Scott family sent reinforcements.” Nell informed.
“What about Sean?”

 

Previously, Boris had assigned someone to track Sean, but Sean was highly vigilant and had people. guarding him in the dark.
To avoid exposure and suspicion, Boris ordered a halt to the tracking and instead activated the SkyEye system.
“The SkyEye system captured him getting into a car after leaving a café, and he hasn’t been seen since. However, he was with
Vivi at the time, and she was wearing that diamond necklace today. We tracked and located her, and it turns out she’s in the
same place you’re heading to, Mr. Lewis.”
After being hospitalized due to an acid attack, Vivi lay despondent in bed every day, keeping the troublesome diamond necklace
hidden away.
Upon hearing this, Boris roughly understood the whole situation.
His expression turned cold, and a wave of raging anger surged within him as he forcefully slammed his palm on the steering
wheel.
Round and round they went, and unexpectedly, victory slipped through their fingers!

An hour and a half later.
Boris, driving at full speed, arrived at the given address.
This place was located at the junction between Japera City and a neighboring town, an area dominated by abandoned chemical
factories.
During the earlier years of industrialization, there was once a period of prosperity that gradually declined and fell into decay.
Numerous factories closed one after another, resulting in increasing abandonment. Nowadays, highly flammable and explosive
materials could be found scattered everywhere.
Boris gradually slowed down his vehicle as he was driving. Suddenly, he spotted a group of individuals armed with submachine
guns up ahead.
They aimed their firearms at him, gesturing for him to stop the car and get out.
Boris turned off the engine and opened the driver’s door, stepping out.

 

The crowd automatically made way for him, but instead, he proceeded to open the rear door and wake Darlene up, forcefully
pulling her out.
Darlene’s sudden appearance left everyone present bewildered. Unfazed, Boris kept her behind him and led the way into the
abandoned factory.
Inside the factory, lights were on, but it was deserted. Only two chairs were placed in the middle of the ground floor.
Ziana occupied one chair while Vivi sat on the other.
Boris stood still, unmoving.
As Vivi noticed his approach, she shouted, “Boris! Boris, save me!”
Ziana looked up, unable to see but sensing the weight of someone’s eyes fixed upon her.
A round of applause sounded, followed by a sinister voice. “Mr. Lewis, choose one. Whom shall you let survive?”


 

“Boris! Save me! Am I not the one you love the most, Boris? Please, save me!” Vivi pleaded. Without even looking at her, Boris
pointed toward Ziana and said, “Release her.”
“Mr. Lewis, you are truly decisive.” A male voice came from the darkness. “What did I say? The person Mr. Lewis truly loves isn’t
you.”
In the next sentence, he called out Ziana’s name. “Miss Scott, do you now know who holds the greatest importance in his heart?”
Ziana’s lips trembled.
He always said one thing and did another, and she was always trying to guess his thoughts. But just now, his choice was
unwavering, certain, and resolute.
Her nose was sour, and she called him in a low voice. “Boris…”
“Don’t be afraid. I’m here.” He spoke gently. “Everything will be alright soon.
Sean laughed loudly. “Vivi, look! Look at yourself. Don’t you resemble a joke?”
Vivi couldn’t bear it any longer. She stood up abruptly from her chair and forcefully threw the ropes to the ground!
She was infuriated, trembling with rage. “Boris, why would you treat me like this? Today, I realized how ruthless you truly are!
How could you use me as a pawn? How could you be so malicious!”

Boris looked at her expressionless. “Wasn’t it your own choice to walk down this path? You sought wealth and insisted on being
by my side. You deceitfully lied to me beforehand, and lies come with consequences.”
“You!” Vivi was rendered speechless for a moment, then screamed, “I hate you! I’ll confront you! You’ve ruined my entire life! I
could have had a wonderful life, but it’s all because of you!”
Vivi rushed towards Boris, only to be kicked away by him with disgust. He said, “One must know when to stop, to appreciate the
good and withdraw. These past years, I’ve given you everything you wanted, yet instead of restraining yourself, you became
more audacious, pushing boundaries. It’s not me who ruined you. It’s your own doing!”
Boris despised Vivi.
If not for Vivi’s lies, he could have had a completely different life. 

Vivi fell to the ground after being kicked while Sean applauded.
Calmly emerging from the darkness, he smiled and greeted Boris. “Mr. Lewis, what a coincidence to find you here. Are you
surprised?”
At that moment, Darlene, who was behind him, suddenly struggled intensely.
Looking from the front, Sean could only see that he brought someone along. He furrowed his brow and asked cautiously, “Who
else did you bring?”
Boris tugged forcefully, bringing Darlene forward, causing her to stumble and fall to the ground.

She looked up at Sean, whimpering and shedding silent tears.
Her mouth was sealed shut, and her eyes expressed despair.
Sean immediately recognized Darlene, his face turning pale. “Darlene! How… How could you bring her here?”
“One life for another.” Boris looked up. “Seth Lewis, you should understand my meaning.”
“You!” Sean winced at the mention of that name.
He pointed his finger at Boris and exclaimed, “You! You! You are not allowed to say that name!”
“Why?” Boris sneered. “Don’t you like the name given to you by Grandpa? Do you think changing it to Erkan Lewis will let you
escape your identity, your past? In the end, you carry the tainted blood. Your biological grandfather was a rapist, and your
biological father is a despicable and heartless man. And now, it’s your turn to be a sneaky, cowardly person who hides in the
shadows, unable to face the light.”
“Boris! Shut your mouth!” Sean intervened.
“Did I say something wrong?” Boris didn’t back down a bit. “The worst mistake Grandpa ever made in his life was adopting your
father! Scum like you, with a lineage of human waste, should rot and stink forever!”
“You! You!”
Boris meticulously prodded at his sensitive spots, provoking an uncontrollable outburst from Sean. 

“Silence!” Sean bellowed.
In an instant, Boris swiftly ignited a lighter, forcefully yanking Ziana up from her seat. “Shut your mouth! She’s drenched in
gasoline, and with one trembling motion of my hand, she would be reduced to charred remains! Say another word! I dare you!”
At the next moment…
Boris extracted a pistol from his pocket, pressing it firmly against Darlene’s temple

The atmosphere instantly became tense and charged with anticipation.
Within the vast factory, silence prevailed, and the sound of a falling needle could be heard.
Sean clenched his teeth, fixating his gaze unwaveringly on the gun in his hand, and uttered in a low growl. “Boris!”
“I made it very clear, one life for one life. Can’t you comprehend?” He slowly loaded the gun, clicking sound amplifying
indefinitely.
Darlene cried out in fear, whimpering loudly. She was unable to speak, only struggling relentlessly as the barrel repeatedly struck
her head.
Sean’s heart raced with apprehension as he exclaimed, “Alright! Deal! I’ll count to three, and we release them simultaneously!”
Boris sneered coldly. “Fine.”
“One!
“Two!
“Three!!!
Both men pushed the women in their arms forward while Boris and Sean simultaneously moved forward, reaching out to grab
their woman.
In the blink of an eye, Ziana, blindfolded, suddenly lifted her leg and forcefully kicked backward. Sean let out a low cry as he fell

to the ground.
Reacting swiftly, he used the lighter he held in his other hand and threw it at Ziana.
Ziana furrowed her brow. Though unable to see, her acute hearing allowed her to quickly discern the direction, and she dodged
the lighter in the blink of an eye.
Boris seized this opportunity and grabbed her while simultaneously gripping the back of Darlene’s neck, pulling both women to
his side.
The turn of events occurred in an instant!

 

“Do you think you can leave my place alive?” Sean gritted his teeth as he struggled to get up from the ground. After cursing, he
blew his whistle, summoning dozens of armed guards holding submachine guns, each aiming their barrels at them. “Let’s see
how you escape today!”
“Why not give it a try?” Boris tightened his grip on Darlene’s throat. While Darlene moaned in pain, Boris paid no attention,
simply staring at Sean and saying, “If I’m going to die, I’ll take her with me. Feel free to give the order to shoot.”
After he finished speaking, without sparing another glance, Boris turned and walked away.
Ziana tugged at his sleeve and immediately followed him.
As they watched the group’s retreating figures, Sean’s neck veins bulged.
All the guards awaited Sean’s command, their eyes fixed upon him in unison.
Sean bit his lip with ferocity.

He knew very well that if Boris were to leave alive today, all their previous scheming would be in vain.
But he couldn’t bear to watch Darlene die. She was the woman he had loved for years!
“Sir!” As Boris was about to leave the factory, one of the guards couldn’t help but speak up.
“Chase after him!”
Boris held Darlene captive and made his way smoothly, quickly reaching the car’s side.
He handed the gun to Ziana, instructing her to keep it pointed at Darlene’s head, and then sat in the back seat. He circled around
to the front, sliding into the driver’s seat..
The car started swiftly, but Sean’s men, driving their vehicles, pursued him relentlessly.
Boris pressed the accelerator, the car instantly surging forward.
“Chase after him!” Sean roared. “Catch up to him! While Boris is driving, take him out!”
Boris had already floored the gas pedal, but the cars behind him continued to multiply, relentlessly tailing them!

 

Suddenly!
The rear of the car was struck, causing it to jolt intensely!
Boris maintained control of the steering wheel and quickly regained direction, but soon another bout of severe jolting ensued!
“They did it on purpose!” Ziana remarked sternly.
“Hold on tight! I’ll leave them far behind!”
Once again, a forceful impact struck the back of the car, this time with even greater severity!
As the car swayed precariously, two vehicles behind them caught up, sandwiching them in the middle.
Boris maneuvered the steering wheel, attempting to break free from their pursuit, but then came another violent collision from
behind.
Their vehicle soared through the air, hurtling straight toward the slope below!
