âStrip off her clothes!â Inside a damp and dark prison, a man ordered coldly while standing by the only window in a cell. Three prison guards with evil smiles approached a beautiful woman, who was hiding in a corner. Gwen White kept backing away with a pale face until she hit the wall and could not retreat anymore. âDonât, donât come near meâŚâ Two of the prison guards exchanged glances and pounced on her to press down one of her hands each. âLet go of me! Let go of me!â Gwen struggled with all her might, but before she could break free from the prison guards who were already pressing her down, the third guard ripped off her blouseâs buttons at once. She held her clothes tightly while she pushed the prison guards away, but how was she a match for three big men? When Gwen White was pushed to the ground, the men, who reeked of sweat, took the opportunity to touch her all over. Gwen shouted at the top of her lungs, âJared Crawford! Iâm your wife! Are you out of your mind?
It was as though a piece of juicy meat was thrown to a pack of evil wolves. âJared, Jared, save me⌠âGet lost! Donât touch me! Donât touch me, ah ââ Gwen White really felt like dying at that instant. She tried her best to hold on to her remaining clothes and cried out to Jared Crawford for help. The prisoners from the other cells could not stand her hopeless cries. Jared kept a straight face even after looking at her. âExperience how terrified and fearful Janice was feeling at that moment. Oh, no, perhaps youâll enjoy the process. After all, youâve probably slept with many men.â He turned and left after saying that! A click was heard as he closed the cellâs door behind him, and he disappeared from her sight. He really left Gwen with the three men! The three prison guards became more barbarous after Jared left. âYour skinâs so tender that water might flow out if I pinch you.â Gwen crawled toward the door with all her might. Even if she were to die, she would never be
âI despise you for being dirty.â The words still lingered in Gwenâs mind after Jared left. She was already very pale, but her face became as white as a sheet. A womanâs gloating voice was suddenly heard outside the door at that moment. âTsk, tsk, tsk, how pitiful you are to be called âdirtyâ by your husband. If I were you, I wouldâve jumped out of the window to solve the problem.â Gwen could not be more familiar with the voice. She clenched the bedsheet. âWhy are you here?â It was Janice Sanders! âOf course Iâm here to see you,â Janice answered with a smile, âI heard Jared tortured you in prison. Iâm so sorry that you ended up like this, it was all because I slandered you in front of him.â âSheâs even admitting that she slandered me!â Gwen shivered at the thought of the three disgusting prison guards, who took advantage of her. âJanice, thereâs no grudge between you and me, why do you have to cause me trouble?!â âNo grudge? âShe doesnât know how many tricks Iâve t
Janice knocked her head hard on the ground and said, âI swear Iâll never disturb your lives again, Miss White. Please donât complain to Mr. Crawford, and please donât ask him to retract Jaredâs right of inheritance. Itâs all my faultâŚâ Gwen had no idea what she was talking about! Her head ached, and she got off her bed shakily while putting her hand on the wound. Before she had even touched Janice, Janice suddenly raised her hand to slap herself and fell to one side. âAh ââ âBam!â The wardâs door was suddenly opened, and Jared, who had somehow returned after leaving, rushed in. He pushed Gwen away before she could even explain. âGwen White, how dare you bully Janice again!â Gwen fell to the ground, and her forehead was bleeding so much that she almost passed out. Janice sobbed. âJared, I love you, I love you so much that Iâm willing to die, but Miss White said sheâll ask your dad to retract your right of inheritance if weâre still together. I canât watch you lose everythi
Gwen White woke up feeling pain. She frowned as she opened her eyes and turned to look. It turned out that a nurse was inserting a needle for an IV infusion into her vein. âMrs. Crawford, youâre finally awake. Youâve been unconscious the whole day.â The nurse sighed a breath of relief. Gwen had not fully regained her consciousness. She felt a splitting headache and as if her limbs were out of joint. That said, she moved her pale lips and asked, âWhat happened to meâŚâ âI was about to ask you, why do you have such a big wound on your head? You needed five stitches.â Gwen recalled that she was hit by Janice Sanders. On top of that, not only did Jared ignore her when she bled so much, but he also believed she hurt Janice, and he wanted to strangle her to death⌠âWhat a joke.â Gwen twitched her mouth and felt a chill in her heart. The nurse then added, âLuckily, you managed to ring for the nurse, so we were able to hurry over in time. If we were slightly later, youâll be i
Once Jared Crawford returned to the villa after work, he asked the butler while he headed upstairs, âDid that woman make things difficult for Janice?â The butler knew he meant Gwen, so he answered softly, âNo, Mrs. Crawford didnât do anything.â âAt least sheâs sensible,â Jared said and wondered, âIf she still doesnât know where she stands, I wonât spare her like I did the last time!â âMr. Crawford, actually⌠Mrs. Crawford isnât as bad as you think she is, sheâs very nice to the servants,â the butler expressed hesitantly. The old butler, who was over half a century old, could not understand why his boss was not fond of Gwen when she was such a gentle, kind, and good-natured person. âShe has been married into the Crawford family for a year, but Mr. Crawford never treated her well. On the other hand, Jared sneered. âSheâs hypocritical!â âSheâs a woman who deliberately planned to get married to me but cheated on me during our wedding night. How good of a person can she be?
Mrs. White said, âYouâve been married to Jared for a year, but thereâs still no news of your pregnancy. You must seize the opportunity.â There was a hint of bitterness in Gwenâs smile. âHaving a child? âJared doesnât love me and firmly believes that I cheated on him. Besides, he despises me for being dirty and will never lay a finger on me. How can I have his child? âA child⌠He and Janice do have one.â Moreover, Gwen was no longer passionate about Jared after the incidents at the prison and hospital. She was even considering letting him go and setting herself free too⌠âGwen, what are you thinking?â Mrs. White called out softly to Gwen, whose mind had drifted far away. Gwen flashed a smile at her mom. âMom, Jared and I already have a plan. We wonât be having a child these two years; we havenât had enough of spending time together with just the two of us.â âIs that so? I just feel that itâs better to have a child since youâre married into the Crawford family â a rich
Gwen White was forced to stop. She asked plainly, âDo you have something to say?â Jared Crawford was in a terrible mood after thinking about her the whole day. âDidnât you see me here? Who let you ignore me?â âAm I supposed to say âgood afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Crawfordâ?â Gwen held in the feeling of disgust and asked again, âDo you have something to say?â Jared ordered coldly, âCome and eat this bowl of birdâs nest.â âYou look so awful like youâll be easily blown away, donât embarrass the Crawford family!â He thought. Gwen was stunned because the birdâs nest was obviously for Janice. She pointed at herself in disbelief. âAre you asking me to eat Janiceâs leftovers?â Jared could never say kind words to Gwen, so he pulled a long face and responded, âJanice doesnât like to eat it. Iâm rewarding you with it because I think highly of you, so you better not be ungrateful!â âHe actually said he thinks highly of me when heâs asking me to finish the remains of Janiceâs food?
