Chapter 4

Author: Lynette Woods
I was tormented the entire night.

The next morning, I was woken up by Amelia’s laughter outside the window.

When I opened my eyes, Marcus was already gone from the room.

The sheets on his side of the bed were so neat that it almost looked like nobody had slept there.

There was one extra thing on the table.

It was a gun, pinned beneath a note.

There were only a few words written on it: 'Yours. Keep it with you.'

Brief and direct, just like him. He disliked talking so much that even his not

    I thought Marcus wouldn’t believe me, but after that, he never asked again.In the days that followed, I buried myself in studying the assets Marcus had privately handed over to me. After Amelia was released from the water dungeon, she stayed in her room to recover from her injuries and rarely bothered me again.I knew this calm in front of me was only temporary.In my previous life, after Marcus was severely injured in a car accident, he became completely unstable, screaming and raging in the house all day long. No one could approach him.Donna Zillmann couldn’t bear to send him to a psychiatric institution, so she had a private island built to confine him instead.That was until Noah took over the entire Zillmann family and became Don Zillmann. The first thing he did was order that island to be blown up.Then suddenly, I remembered Noah still had a private room I was never allowed to enter.In my previous life, I once accidentally saw inside when he opened the door. It was f

    Two days later, Marcus took me to the North Shore docks.Inside the car, he wasn’t reading documents but resting with his eyes closed.Through the window, I watched the scenery outside become increasingly desolate, my hand unconsciously brushing against the gun beneath my clothes.“Nervous?”Marcus suddenly spoke without opening his eyes.“A little. It’s my first time handling something for Donna Zillmann.”I answered honestly, and he gave a quiet hum in response.“You don’t need to worry. You only need to be present. Donna Zillmann just wants you to get familiar with things first. You won’t be the one negotiating business. She knows very well what you can and can’t do.”The car didn’t drive directly into the docks.Instead, it stopped in front of an old-looking restaurant by the shore.“I’m hungry.”I looked at him in slight surprise. I hadn’t expected him to explain himself to me.Even if it was only a few words.Right after we finished ordering, the restaurant door was

    That evening, just as I arrived at the dining room, Noah appeared at the entrance with a pale-faced Amelia beside him.Amelia stood behind Noah with her head lowered. The new dress she had changed into was still extremely short, and the injuries on her arms and legs were clearly visible.Noah, on the other hand, still wore that impossibly gentle smile as he personally pulled out a chair for her and thoughtfully placed a cup of hot milk in front of her.“Careful, darling. It’s hot.”'If you dare cause trouble again tonight, just wait until I get you back to the room!'Inside his head, Noah’s furious cursing at Amelia never stopped.Hidden beneath the long dining table, his hand kept pinching Amelia’s thigh.Amelia didn’t dare make a sound, nor did she dare move too much and risk Donna Zillmann noticing. She could only bite her lip tightly and endure the pain.'Damn it. She still dares to sit there watching me make a fool of myself! Just wait, Jane. Sooner or later, I’ll make you

He disliked talking so much that even his notes were stingy with words.As I held the gun, my heart suddenly warmed.Last night, he told me that the reason he normally avoided physical contact was because he was hyper-sensitive to physical touch.Just one touch would trigger an intense physical reaction in him.He had touched me the entire night, though.I put the gun away, changed clothes, and headed downstairs to the dining room.Marcus was sitting at the table reading the newspaper, with a cup of black coffee beside him.Sunlight

    Because Amelia had completely embarrassed herself, the wedding ended in a hurry.From beginning to end, Donna Zillmann never gave her a pleasant look.However, whenever her gaze turned toward me, her eyes were filled with approval.She even took my hand and patted it gently.“Jane, tonight I’ll make sure Marcus comes back to accompany you. You mustn’t be wronged.”After leaving the banquet hall, Amelia and I ran into each other in the back garden.She deliberately tilted her neck, making sure I could see the marks on her skin.“Jane, Noah is really amazing.“Even if I didn’t get the necklace today, I’ll still get pregnant with a Zillmann family heir very soon.”In her mind, she said, 'Damn it, that hurt so much. Why didn’t this b*tch tell me Noah hits people while doing that?!'Amelia had made pregnancy sound far too simple.Noah was a playboy. He drank and smoked constantly, and he had plenty of bad habits. Long ago, he had already ruined his health.In our previous life,

    My wedding and Amelia’s wedding were held together, and the scale was grand.Early on the morning of the ceremony, two wedding dresses were delivered to the estate at the same time.In our previous life, Marcus never even showed up at the wedding.Meanwhile, Noah had arrived early in the morning, busying himself with everything like the perfect husband.Everyone said Noah was the one who truly knew how to care for a woman.And this life was the same.Noah personally drove over to deliver Amelia’s wedding dress, while a driver delivered mine.Carrying the dress box upstairs, Noah smiled sweetly.“I don’t trust anyone else touching Amelia’s wedding dress.”Amelia immediately threw herself at him and kissed him before looking at me provocatively.“Jane, why didn’t Marcus personally deliver your wedding dress?”I smiled lightly.“It’s fine. The wedding dress Marcus gave me was the finale piece at the Paris auction. There’s only one in the world. I like it very much.”Amelia’s
