Semua Bab Yearning for Her Return : Bab 191 - Bab 200

Rebecca woke up the next day only to find out what had happened the previous night. Of course, many details were omitted in the explanation. She only knew that the police had taken away two individuals overnight.One was taken into custody for carrying a knife and committing an assault, while the other was accused of attempted murder. It was said that the latter was involved in other criminal activities. He had been abandoned by his wife and children, and even his own parents refused to acknowledge him.Rebecca wasn't interested in the other crimes this person had committed. She only wanted to know why he had attacked Ethan and how they had managed to apprehend him.So, during a break when the crew was discussing the gossip, she playfully pestered Sam for details about what had happened."It's quite simple, really. Ethan had a personalized security device, so we tampered with it a bit. We applied some stuff that Nate sent that causes skin irritation. That foolish thief heard that h

Ryan cocked a brow at Daniel and glanced at him.He quickly redrew his gaze. "Rebecca is not in Four Seasons, so you won't find her if you go there."He was quick to expose Daniel's little scheme.He turned over on the couch and muttered, "You're about to marry Jessica. Why are you still looking for your ex-wife? It doesn't sound right."Ryan had let the matter go. Since he couldn't stop his friend from sinking into the shit hole, he didn't plan to continue meddling in it.If he continued with this, it would just make him look like some petty brat. Besides, even the Winston family had loosened their stance. What could an outsider like him possibly do?But Daniel had made his choice. So, why was he still trying to sneak a look at Rebecca?Although Daniel was his friend, Rebecca was too. Daniel wasn't annoyed by Ryan's words. He calmly explained, "I saw from Ethan's post that she was injured because of Jessica. So, I thought of going over to apologize to her. I don't have any ot

Rebecca turned around once she heard that melodious voice. She first noticed a pretty woman elegantly leaning against the fence. The woman donned a vintage dress and seemed like someone rich. A set of brows that resembled Rebecca's sat on the woman's face. They framed her lively features well. All at once, an indescribable emotion suffocated Rebecca. It made her panic. It wasn't her first time seeing the woman. The entire Johnson family had met Rebecca after her DNA test abroad. Yet, today was different because one could say it was her first time officially returning home.Rebecca gazed at her mother, who stood nearby. Her eyes couldn't help reddening as she resisted the urge to cry. A smile curved on her face as she said, "Mom, it's me. I've come home with my brothers."The gorgeous woman named Zelda Stigg teared up at once. She missed Rebecca dearly the 20 years they were apart. Not only that, but she had even fallen ill from her constant longing. Now that she had seen her daug

Jessica stiffened once she heard that. Every bit of arrogance she showed earlier turned to fear, and she dared not look toward the door. The words he told her echoed in her head, "If you fail to marry Daniel, you'll …" The memory of the man named C choking her made her struggle to breathe even now. With a gulp, she respectfully asked, "W-Why are you here?""Me?" C's lips curved beneath the silver mask as he approached her. "I've been in your home all day. Didn't you know? Oh, that's right. Your entire family attended your wedding, so it's natural that you're unaware of when I came here. Then again, that doesn't matter, right?"Jessica unknowingly took one step back. Words gathered at the back of her throat, but she couldn't bring herself to say them. C soon closed in and trapped her against the side of her bed. Her body trembled as she muttered, "P-Please, I'm begging you! I don't want to die …"Had she known this would happen, she wouldn't have made a deal with this terrifying de

"Go and find a doctor who'll cure you instead of throwing a psychotic tantrum at me." Sam instantly stepped back when Serena came close to him. His brows gathered with the utmost disgust. "My mother's family name is Stigg, so I don't have a cousin from the Seales family! Don't fucking act like you're close to us! Tabitha, escort her out!"He didn't want to waste a single breath on her. He led Rebecca away without sparing any respect for the heiress.That pissed Serena off so much that she stomped hard on the ground. She was about to chase after Sam when Tabitha stopped her. "Please don't make things difficult for me, Ms. Seales," Tabitha stated. As an outsider, she couldn't comment on how Serena often visited the residence when Zelda hated it. The worst part was Serena had insisted on coming when today was Rebecca's official return. Serena kept wanting to take part in the Johnson family's affairs. Because Serena was a relative of the family, Tabitha couldn't interfere. Still,
