Chapter 71

Author: Warm Cocoa
"Stellar!"

The first face that flashed through Percy’s mind was hers, and the mere thought of her name made him grit his teeth in anger.

But soon, the hazy memories from last night started coming back.

Towards the end… it wasn’t Stellar who took him away.

It was Yvonne.

And yet, she actually dumped him on the side of the road and left him there?

At that moment, his disgust for Yvonne deepened even further.

Furious, he stormed away from the scene.

…

Meanwhile, on the other side of town.

Stellar spent her entire day at the research institute, buried in her latest experiment.

For once, no one had caused trouble for her, and she enjoyed a rare, peaceful day.

Just as she was about to leave, her phone rang.

"Babe, I finally wrapped things up on my end. How about a dinner date?"

Suzy’s lazy, sultry voice carried an irresistible charm.

Stellar couldn’t help but smile, her tone softer than usual.

"Sure! Where are we meeting?"

Suzy rattled off an address.

Stellar paused for a second but agreed w

  • As the Fake Heiress Rose to Power, the CEO Falls Apart   Chapter 760

    “Damn it, someone from outside broke in! Get in here and beat them out!”Just then, other residents who lived nearby charged toward Alex’s place with hoes, rakes, and hatchets in hand.Coco flinched and snapped back to her senses. “Go! Run now! When they gang up like this, it gets deadly. They’ll kill you—just go, don’t worry about me!”But Stellar stepped forward, crouched in front of her, and said, “You think I came here for fun? I’m not leaving without you.”“But…” Coco tried to persuade her to leave.She had iron shackles around her wrists and ankles. Without the key, there was no way to break free.And the key had been hidden by Alex in some secret spot—impossible to find quickly.But before she could even finish her thought, Stellar grabbed the chain and pulled hard in opposite directions.Coco watched with wide eyes as the thick lock snapped right in front of her.Her mouth formed a perfect “O.”The shock hit her like a wave.Stellar removed the remaining restraints, then reach

    In Alex’s eyes, the woman in front of him was nothing more than a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.She would never escape his grasp again, so he spoke of everything he’d done without a hint of fear.Coco could no longer hold it in and bent forward, retching violently.But after nearly three days without food, there wasn’t even stomach acid left, only the endless dry heaving that tore her apart with fear.Just then, Alex stepped up to her, grabbed a fistful of her hair, and brought a bread to her mouth like he was teasing a dog.“I’m giving you one more chance. If you behave and act like a good wife, I’ll give you food and water, and you’ll never have to suffer like this again. How about that?”To someone on the verge of fainting from hunger, that piece of food was the cruelest kind of temptation.Coco forced her eyes open and stared at the man’s freckled face, taking deep breaths.A few seconds later, under his confident gaze, she spat hard at him. “You sick monster! Who’d ever believe

    Back then, she had nearly escaped. She could see the light at the end, only to be dragged back at the last moment and locked in a room, where they tried to force her to sleep with that man.She’d even considered dying with him.But at the critical moment, she realized the man was mentally challenged, completely clueless and easily fooled.Thinking fast, she pretended they were playing a game and managed to trick him. The family thought she had finally given in.Taking advantage of their lowered guard, she quietly prepared her second escape.After enduring over half a month of hell, she finally saw daylight again.She had thought she’d buried that nightmare for good.But seeing what was happening to Coco now—every memory came rushing back.She swore she would save Coco, just like she once saved herself....In a cattle shed belonging to the Smith family in the neighboring village, Coco lay on the ground, covered in bruises. Iron chains bound her wrists, ankles, and neck. Her lips we

    Dennis was truly heartless—selling off his own daughter to a dangerous fate just to help his son buy a house and get married.“I can’t let this happen. I have to go save her!” Xavier couldn’t sit still any longer. Without a second thought, he turned to leave.But the older woman quickly grabbed his arm. “Young man, don’t be reckless! That neighboring town isn’t like ours. “The residents over there stick together, all of them. If you barge in like this, they’ll beat you half to death before you even get near her!”“Then what about calling the police?” As a lawyer, Xavier still believed in the power of the law.“It’s no use. The police have been there several times. They’re wild and violent, and no one’s been able to do anything,” she said with a heavy sigh. “If anyone’s to blame, it’s just her bad luck. You really shouldn’t throw your life away for this.”Her words hit Xavier like a hammer to the chest. His head buzzed with rage.Was all of this happening to Coco just because he br

    “Don’t come bothering me either. Get out, both of you!”Dennis waved them off, already shooing them toward the door.Xavier grew anxious and wanted to say more.But Stellar nudged him with her elbow, giving him a look and motioning toward the table.Xavier’s eyes swept over, and when he saw what was lying there, a spark lit in his gaze. “That’s the bracelet I gave Coco. She always wore it. If she hadn’t come back, why would it be here?”“Mr. Hung, where did she really go? Please, just tell us.”At those words, a flicker of guilt passed quickly through Dennis’s eyes, and his tone turned strange. “Fine, I’ll be honest, she did come back a few days ago. But we got into a fight, and she stormed off with her luggage. “She thinks she’s something now. Goes wherever she wants without telling me. I couldn’t care less. “And if you don’t leave right now, I swear I’ll chase you out with a broom.”His attitude was downright hostile. The way he spoke about Coco sounded less like a father talkin

    At seven the next morning, Stellar, Xavier, and the two other team members set out with their backpacks.Since the small town hadn’t been developed yet, there was no landing strip for planes. The only way there was by train, followed by several transfers.After a long journey, they finally reached Water Valley Town just before 1 p.m.They had expected something extremely run-down, but to their surprise, the town—though nestled along winding, rugged mountain paths—was surrounded by lush woods. Sunlight filtered through the interwoven branches, casting dappled patterns on the ground.The distant hills rolled in waves of green, and a clear stream flowed between the rocks, bubbling softly and scattering glints of light.The scenery was unexpectedly beautiful—untouched and pure.After walking another ten minutes, they saw several dozen houses at the base of the mountain, all built with gray tiled roofs and red-brick whitewashed walls, overgrown with moss and creeping vines.On either side
