"No, I don't want a divorce! I didn't even want to go to dinner with him, I wanted to come home to be with you, but he threatened me with the project. I invested $15 million. I have no choice," Crystal said anxiously, almost crying.Shawn closed his eyes in pain. "Every single time, your excuse is that he threatened you. Last time, he threatened you to make you hold his hand, and this time, he threatened you to make you dine with him. If, next time, he threatens you to make you sleep with him, am I supposed to accept your explanation too?""No, that won't happen…"Crystal shook her head repeatedly, hoping her husband wouldn't misunderstand.Shawn let out a huge sigh. "Crystal, Frank is honestly a pretty exceptional guy. He's rich, handsome, backed by a billion-dollar corporation in Golden Construction, and founded Frank Construction, which is thriving. Honestly, he's more suited for you than I am. I'm a nobody, and now I'm even a cripple. Why do you still cling to me? Let's part am

Behind the transparent glass was a burly man in prison garb. He was the van driver who rear-ended Shawn, Wilson Smith!"It's you?"Wilson couldn't recognize Shawn at first, but he did after noticing the wheelchair. He was surprised and his expression grew complicated.Shawn chuckled lightly. "Are you surprised to see me?"Wilson immediately scoffed. "How does it feel to be a cripple? Do you want to kill me? Hahaha, I'll be in jail for 10 years at most, maybe even less, while you'll be crippled for life.""I don't want to kill you," Shawn replied, shaking his head. His eyes were calm like still water, devoid of hatred.Wilson paused, then continued to smirk, "Hah, stop pretending! You brought this on yourself. I told you to pay me, but you chose money over your life! You only have yourself to blame. Now go ahead and regret it for the rest of your life.""I'm curious. I'm sure that you weren't the one who hit me that day. Why are you taking the blame? Can you enlighten me about th

Joey was skinny, like a bamboo pole, and had a tattoo on his neck. He glanced at the girl, and lust stirred within him. He said with a laugh, "Okay, I'll finish him!"After saying that, he bent down smoothly and potted a ball.Then, with a few skillful shots, he cleared the table. It must be said, he had some skills.The girl blushed with excitement. She jumped up and down, clapping and cheering. "That was awesome! Joey is so cool!""Of course! It's Joey after all!""He's the number one billiards player in Southsky!"The five young men around him praised him loudly.A faint smile appeared on Joey's face. The girl stood next to him, basking in the compliments.Being the center of attention brought her immense satisfaction.Joey raised his hands to quiet everyone down. After the others fell silent, he said with a smile, "Alright, enough billiards for now. Let's go to an internet cafe, then go karaoke tonight."After he said that, his friends cheered wildly.The girl hesitated.

Because neither of the two demons spoke, Angelica cautiously looked up, trembling with fear.In her eyes, these two were terrorists, killing people at the slightest disagreement. They were terrifying.She had never seen such cold-blooded, ruthless people in her life.The girl chose a life of delinquency herself. Shawn wasn't a savior and had no intention of intervening. He stopped asking questions and instead said, "I'll take you to see someone. After that, I'll send you to where Joey is."He... he's going to send me to where Joey is?Hearing this, Angelica's face turned deathly pale, and her whole body shook like a leaf. Her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.Shawn and Louise exchanged glances.Louise said, "She thought those guys were dead."Shawn was speechless."Wake her up," he instructed.Louise reached out and pressed down several times on Angelica's snow-white neck."Don't kill me!"Angelica screamed hysterically as she woke up from a nightmare.Then, she saw the t

"My boss is called Ben Wilde. Everyone knows him as Scar."Once again sitting on the chair, Wilson took the initiative to speak before Shawn could ask."Scar actually has another identity. He's Frank Truman's number one underling. They're as close as brothers. One is wealthy, the other ruthless. Frank is a businessman, and over the years, many things that were inconvenient for him to do were handled by Scar, including dealing with you."Shawn pondered. Frank was a young entrepreneur who would ascend to high society sooner or later, making him very cautious about his reputation. Scar was a very convenient weapon for him.Wilson continued, "We didn't even know who you were before that day. Scar was the one who told us to find you and break your legs. We've done this kind of thing before, and according to the original plan, I was supposed to walk away unscathed. However, it seems someone intervened on your behalf, forcing me to turn myself in. Afterwards, I received $200,000. I have a
