Chapter 441

Isaac was clearly telling me to leave, yet my feet felt rooted to the floor.I knew that the moment I walked out that door, the Osborns would hand Shannon over to that pedophile, and her life would be ruined beyond repair.My eyes and nose stung, and I forced myself not to cry. My fingers shook as I reached for the buttons of my cardigan, undoing them one by one.The sense of despair and helplessness pressed so heavily on my chest that I could barely breathe.Isaac's gaze darkened, turning intense. Something complicated surged in his eyes, and his Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed reflexively.His gaze locked on me.The office was warm, but I felt cold to the bone.The cardigan slipped from my shoulders, and I slowly took off the thin top underneath. When I was left in nothing but my bra, I unfastened it when Isaac suddenly stood and walked toward me.I shut my eyes out of fear, my body trembling uncontrollably.However, the touch I was bracing for never came. He leaned down

I didn't finish the sentence, but the plea was clear. Isaac didn't look up. He simply hummed in response.I said nothing else, closed the door gently, and left.Outside the firm, cold early-spring air rushed at me, but it did nothing to cool the heat lingering on my face.The humiliating memory of what had just happened replayed in my mind, over and over again.…Back in the office, Isaac asked his assistant to bring him a glass of ice water.He drank it all in one go. The cold burned its way down his throat, yet it did nothing to quell the restless agitation roiling inside him.He sat at his desk, his fingers idly tracing the rim of the empty glass.After a long silence, he picked up the intercom and asked for Leon."Tell the Osborns I'm agreeing to their proposal."His tone was casual, as if he were discussing something trivial.Leon froze, disbelief written across his face."M-Mr. Shore, are you sure about that? Everyone can see that the Osborns' project is a lost cause.

Isaac leaned back in his chair, his voice cold. "And you have the nerve to ask me that? If you're so capable, why don't you go bring Shannon back yourself? You've dragged things out with Kaylin for years and still haven't resolved anything. Now, Shannon's the one paying the price."Worst case scenario, see if you can revise the adoption papers. Honestly, she'd be better off with Josie."Micah paused briefly before replying, "The day Kaylin took Shannon, I already had people watching the Osborns. If they dared hand her over to that pervert, I would've stepped in. I just didn't expect you to move faster than I did."Isaac's temples throbbed with anger. "What's the point of saying that now? What were you doing before?"Micah chuckled lightly, his tone turning teasing. "Let me guess. Josie went to see you, didn't she? What I did basically handed you the perfect chance to earn points with her. If she knew you went this far to save Shannon, she'd be grateful enough to fall right into y

Chapter 444

Shannon's backpack was still slung crookedly over one shoulder, exactly like the first time I'd seen her, except the little rabbit plush was missing.My nose stung, and the tight knot that had been lodged in my throat all night finally loosened. Tears welled up in my eyes before I could stop them."I've brought Shanny back," Isaac said. "Take good care of her."His voice carried a trace of iciness, but it was steady.I looked at him, my throat tight, and the words "thank you" came out soft and unsteady.He lifted his hand, his thumb brushing lightly beneath my eye—restrained, gentle. I instinctively avoided his touch, stepping aside to let him and Shannon into the living room.I crouched and pulled Shannon into my arms, checking her over from head to toe. "Shanny, are you hurt anywhere?"Shannon clearly had no idea what had happened. She smiled brightly, her little dimples showing. "I'm fine, Ms. York. Mr. Shore said you missed me, so he told Daddy to bring me over even though i

With that, Isaac didn't look back again. He turned around and opened the door. Cold air rushed in before the door shut with a soft click. The joy and relief of seeing Shannon again were slowly buried beneath the fear of losing Daphne.I stood there, frozen, unable to tell which version of him was real.…The next morning, Daphne woke up groggy and froze when she saw Shannon back in the room. She rubbed her eyes and stared for a long moment before she uttered in surprise, "Shannon! When did you come back?"Shannon was brushing her hair, smiling. "Mr. Shore brought me back late last night. You were sleeping so soundly, so I didn't wake you."Daphne was thrilled. At breakfast, she pushed all her favorite pancakes onto Shannon's plate.Shannon looked flustered. "Daphne, I can't eat all of this.""Eat it," Daphne said bossily, sounding a lot like Timothy when she did. "Eat all of it, or I'll be mad."I shook my head helplessly and said to Shannon, "If you can't finish, don't for

Chapter 446

The moment I reached the entrance of the set, I saw crew members busy packing up equipment. Amy had just changed out of her costume.Most of her makeup was already off, and her face glowed with the excitement of wrapping a shoot. She was still holding a bouquet she had just received."Josie! What are you doing here?"She spotted me right away and hurried over, with a bright smile, still carrying that lively energy from filming.Before I could even speak, she naturally reached out and hugged me, her tone sincere. "Your script was incredible. Every scene felt so satisfying to act out. Thank you for giving me this opportunity."I was just about to respond when Judith walked over, her expression dark, her assistant close behind.Amy turned to her, half joking and half playful. "Judith, why did you cancel the afterparty just like that? We worked so hard. We can't seriously end things without a proper goodbye, right?"Judith didn't bother responding. She merely tilted her chin toward

Chapter 447

"Come on! Let everyone see what a shameless vixen you really are!"Most of the crew hadn't left yet. They crowded around when they saw what was happening, but no one dared step in.Kaylin stopped and turned to the bodyguards behind her. "Strip her. If she loves seducing men so much, I'll let her seduce all she wants today."That was when Amy lost her composure. She struggled desperately and cried out to us, "Judith! Josie! Help me, please!"Kaylin let out a cold laugh and peered down at us. "If anyone dares to interfere today, I'll strip them, too. Don't believe me? Try it."Judith's face turned ashen with rage. She was about to rush forward when I grabbed her arm."We don't have anyone backing us up right now. Charging in won't do anything."I lowered my voice and spoke quickly. "Call the production's security guards right now. I'll call the police. Let's split up."Judith nodded. We slipped away in the chaos and returned to the office, locking the door behind us.I immediate

Before the man could touch me, he suddenly let out a scream and was thrown violently to the ground beside me.I looked up in shock, my heart clenching hard.Micah had arrived, and Isaac was with him.Amy was curled up on the ground. Her clothes had been torn into pieces, and they were barely covering her body.I was still dressed, but my knit top was ripped open at the neckline, exposing a large strip of skin. Blood stained the corner of my mouth, and I looked just as miserable as she did.When Isaac saw me like that, a flash of vicious anger crossed his usually calm eyes.He quickly took off his suit jacket and wrapped it around me, then carefully helped me to my feet.Micah stood beside him.Amy's body was covered in bruises, her mouth smeared with blood. She looked so battered that it was terrifying.Micah's hands trembled almost imperceptibly. Like Isaac, he took off his coat and draped it over Amy before lifting her and placing her gently on a nearby chair.He didn't see

Chapter 449

Micah was utterly speechless.Meanwhile, Isaac turned to the cluster of crew members still lingering nearby and spoke. "Are you all planning to keep watching, or do none of you have work to get back to?"The meaning behind his words was unmistakable, and no one dared to linger any longer. The crowd dispersed almost immediately.I thought he was prepared to let things end there, but what Isaac said next made Kaylin and everyone with her visibly stiffen.He asked Leon, "Has the surveillance footage been pulled? Who touched Ms. York and Ms. Shaw?""All five bodyguards," came Leon's response."I see."Isaac turned to the men he had brought with him. "Watch the footage carefully. Wherever they touched them, cripple that part."He issued the order as if he were discussing something trivial, yet it was clear he held the power to decide what happened to them.Kaylin finally reacted. Terrified, she stared at him in disbelief. "Y-You're abusing your power! Are you actually helping those

Chapter 450

"Does it hurt?" Isaac asked, his voice was low and gentle, nothing like the man from the set moments ago.I slowly relaxed and shook my head. "It's not too bad."He gave a quiet huff, his tone gentle but reproachful. "I didn't expect you to be that bold."I gave a faint smile. "I didn't expect you to be that ruthless either."His expression darkened slightly. "Were you scared?"I paused, unsure of what he meant. To be honest, I'd always been a little wary of him, even before this incident.Thinking of Amy, I asked, "You already knew about Mr. Holmes and Amy, didn't you?"He gave a quiet hum in acknowledgment.That explained why Micah had made that suggestion to me back then.Judging by Isaac's reaction, he didn't find Micah and Amy's situation particularly unusual. Had he done the same thing himself?Right then, Ruby's call came in. That was when I remembered I still hadn't picked up the girls.Given the state I was in, with bruises still visible on my face, I was afraid I'd
