Semua Bab Who's the One Regretting Now?: Bab 821 - Bab 830

After hearing that, Sharon's hand by her side tightened around the fabric of her clothes. Still, she forced herself to keep her composure without the slightest crack."It wasn't my doing, Dad. I haven't gone out lately. I'm sure you, Mom, and Elias have all noticed that," she lied, using all of her strength to put on her best act.Edmund was skeptical of her response. So, he decided to put her to the test. "If it were your doing, it would be the fourth time you've tried to harm Macie. I can't keep covering for you with the Fowlers. "However, if it really is your doing, I'll send you to a safe place right away. That way, you'd escape the worst of what's coming."After hearing his concern for her and his offer to send her away, she realized that Edmund was still on her side. For a moment, she almost admitted to everything.However, the confession died in her throat because she knew that Edmund wouldn't protect her anymore once they uncovered Macie's true identity. In fact, he'd wan

Elias was still on the phone when he heard his bodyguards report that a pileup at the intersection had blocked the road. They were abandoning their cars and running toward him.Before he could respond, he heard the sound of something being dragged across the ground. He whipped his head around and noticed that the SUV was empty. The man who had taken Macie was attempting to whisk her away."Set her down!" Elias demanded before sprinting around the car. Luca heard him and turned sharply, only to find Elias right beside him. A heavy fist came flying at his face. He dropped Macie and barely dodged it, the punch grazing his right cheek. The moment his fist missed its mark, Elias knew that his opponent could fight, so he immediately followed with a fierce kick. Luca staggered back several steps and dodged the blow before regaining his balance and launching a counterattack.The two of them squared off in a no-holds-barred brawl.Elias had spent three years in a military field camp, tr

Luca hadn't turned his head back yet, and in that split second, Elias made his move. Slipping into Luca's blind spot, he lunged forward and launched a flying kick.His sudden movement caught everyone off guard. Even Edward's eyes widened in surprise. It was the kind of strike that demanded perfect balance and core strength, but Elias pulled it off. His kick landed squarely on Luca.By the time Luca, who was in the middle of the road, realized what was going on, it was too late. Sensing the sudden shift of wind at his ear, he turned his head, only to see a boot hurtling straight at his face. Every nerve in his body urged him to dodge it, but he knew that he was a dead man that night. So, he pulled the trigger first.However, his thoughts lagged behind his reflexes. Before he could pull the trigger, the kick had already smashed into his face.In the blink of an eye, Luca was sent flying and his body tumbled across the ground. Macie went down with him, and his gun slipped out of his

In any case, there were still too many unanswered questions. Yosef couldn't smooth the lines on his forehead.Right then, Nolan said, "You should get some rest, Mr. Fowler Senior. I'll stay on top of everything and give you a full report first thing in the morning.""How could I possibly sleep after something this serious just happened?" Yosef sighed. "Macie's still on the operating table. Have you contacted the nearest hospital? No matter the cost, no matter what it takes, make sure she survives.""I've already contacted them. Our men are still there," Nolan answered.Yosef inquired, "What about Edward? Was he hurt? Tell him to come back.""Mr. Fowler is fine. He was in his wheelchair the entire time, and our bodyguards kept a close eye on him," Nolan responded. "He followed Ms. Smith to the hospital. I doubt we can pull him away. You know how much he values her. He even had two of his ribs broken for her."Yosef sighed after hearing that. He decided to let it go. As long as Edw

Edward cursed, "Don't give me that bullshit! If you were that busy, you could've found someone else to deliver it. Do you honestly expect me to believe that excuse?" Mitch was at a loss for words when he heard that. Edward noticed his silence and no longer cared to hear another word from him. "Just you wait. Once the interrogation results are out tomorrow, I'll see what you have to say then. You and your boss can rot in prison together!" he snarled.After hearing that, Mitch sighed inwardly, thinking, "...It's just my luck. I really am innocent!"The problem was, there was no way for him to defend himself. Elias obviously didn't want anyone to know that he had taken Macie's hair for a DNA test. He had even kept it from Edmund, so he definitely wasn't going to let it slip to Edward.What's more, if Sharon was the one behind this abduction and he couldn't justify why he had called Macie out that evening, he'd end up looking like her partner in crime. Mitch felt drained. All he cou
