Chapter 542

Penulis: Sequora
"I'm fine, but what about my mom?"

Renee was worried, and she couldn't remember Emma's number since Emma had despised her presence over the years, so she had no reason to memorize it.

"I sent someone to check," Alison replied. "She's asleep but unhurt. As for the bodyguards, they claimed they were drunk and so didn't answer your calls. I can't shake off the feeling that they are under someone else's payroll, so I arranged for new bodyguards. Don't worry."

Renee's heart calmed after hearing that.

She had been most worried about her mother, and if her mother was safe, she had nothing to worry about.

The rest was just a matter of time.

Hanging up, she reclined against her chair and stared at the ceiling, feeling a somber mess of different emotions.

Meanwhile, both the Xaviers and the Dornans were getting antsy as the public outcry against them was escalating online.

Even the hospitalized William was dying inside. Remembering that it was all Renee's fault, he could kill her on t

    As Martin repeated himself, Renee couldn't say no this time because she didn't want to show her doubt about the man too clearly.Shaking her head, she forced a smile and said, "No, I'm just having trouble taking it all in… What happened, Dad? Where have you been? Why are you back now?"She was still caught in the anguish of Jasper's death, and her tears dropped easily with just a tinge of emotion.Seeing how miserably she was sobbing, Martin smiled as he reached up to wipe her tears while smiling. "Oh, silly—why are you crying? We're back together, and that's good, isn't it? Come in, let's take a look at your mom."As he still held Renee's hand, he led her into the living area.Every room in Evergreen Care Center had a living area just like an apartment, which was only fitting for a place that charged 200 grand each month.As they entered and saw the woman on the couch, Martin promptly called out, "Emma? Is it really you? Oh, I finally found you!"He hurried to the couch, sittin

    Emma held Renee in turn and gently patted her back.She had no idea who was gone but had a vague guess seeing how miserably Renee was crying.Having never seen Renee crying so miserably before, it hurt her heart so much to see that."It's alright. Just let it out—you'll feel better," she said.Renee really threw herself into Emma's arms and started wailing just then, aggrieved by the reality of Jasper's death and all the misery she had suffered over the years.As her emotional dam burst, everything came crashing out all at once.There was no telling how long she cried, but she eventually calmed down and returned to the couch.Emma wiped her tears with some tissues, as if she were a child again.While Renee was still reeling from agony, she suddenly remembered that Emma was keeping a lot of things from her and quickly composed herself.Wiping the tears off her cheek, she asked, "You had something to tell me, didn't you? About dad…"Thud, thud."I'll get it."Renee was cut of

    "J-Jasper's dead."Yvie's voice cracked with guilt, magnified endlessly at Renee's question.As the culprit, her conscience ate at her in the worst way possible.Taking a deep breath to compose herself, Yvie then continued, "I was supposed to return with them, but I had to get off because something came up… And then they told me soon after that the plane had crashed into the ocean."Her voice was cracking with tears, and she started crying when she finished, as she felt a painful mix of guilt and self-blame for the deaths of Jasper and his entourage.Renee wobbled and would've almost fallen if she didn't catch her balance against the wall.Her lips parted and closed repeatedly, when she finally managed to find her voice, "A-Are you sure…?""I was on that plane," Yvie's voice cracked miserably. "But I got the call and got off before I turned off my phone, and I was going back a day later… I didn't know that would happen."Renee's mind went blank, and she almost passed out right

    Renee was worried as Emma wasn't responding, and she nudged Emma as she repeated, "Mom? Mom?!"She turned to leave when she got no response, finding Bernice and demanding, "What happened to my mom?! She's not waking up at all!"Her heart was pounding in fear of the worst, but Bernice said, "She was really freaking out—the doctor had to sedate her.""Really?" Renee frowned, skeptical.Before going in, she just asked the bodyguards but they never mentioned Emma freaking out.So what sedated her?Noticing Bernice averting her eyes just then, she knew that the woman was an issue…And could it be Martin's doing?For some reason, Renee had the feeling something bad was going to happen soon, but not what it was.With Jasper going missing and her own parents keeping so many secrets from her, she was naturally squirmish."Of course," Bernice shot back. "I've been taking care of Emma for years. Or do you not believe me?"Renee shook her head and tipped her a couple hundred dollars. "O

    Nathan paused, and remembering that he might have gone too far beating Candy up the other day, he only pinched her waist. "Are you still upset? Fine—my bad."Whether it was an apology or because Candy had done well, he wired her five hundred grand and showed her the screen. "Here's your reward," he said as he pulled her into his arms. "Now remember—I was giving you an opportunity to prove yourself when I asked you to plant that bug on Renee. Even if you'd refused, we'd have no problem breaking into her apartment and doing it ourselves."Candy didn't question him at all, even prostrating herself. "Okay…"In reality, she was delighted with the money, having made millions enough to bail.She had to leave while she still was still in one piece, or she would sink further and become these people's marionette."That's my good girl." Nathan grinned, leading her by her hand to the couch and kissing her."N-Nathan… I'm pregnant…" Candy resisted.After being beaten up, she was so traumat

    After that, Renee got into her car and headed to the hospital with Candy.Since she had only sustained flesh wounds, she got some medicine for it before heading home, freshening up and changing before stepping out into her bedroom.Candy was in the living room, fidgeting restlessly because of Nathan's threats and the bun in her oven.She thought getting pregnant with Nathan's child would get her leverage over Nathan, but he didn't care about their child at all, instead obsessing over putting a camera in Renee's bedroom.And Candy had no choice but to comply, or Nathan would hurt her again.Even as she was left terrified, Renee stepped out of the bedroom and found her spacing out."What's on your mind?" she asked in concern."Huh? N-Nothing." Candy came to her senses and shook her head, getting up and fetching Renee a glass of warm water. "Have a drink—it must have been difficult staying in the lock-up. You should sleep."Renee took the glass and took a sip before answering, "
