Theodore lowered his head and looked at Samantha, his voice hoarse as he said, “You are very accurate, very poisonous.”
“Evelyn and I, it was indeed impossible.”
have also figured it out, so I will let you endure even more painful experiences.”
“Perhaps this way, Evelyn could forgive me.
This sentence completely shattered Samantha’s hope.
Theodore left the room without looking back. Gradually, Samantha’s horrifying screams could be heard from behind. Eventually, the screams turned into curses.
“Theodore, damn it, it’s you who’s at fault. What did I do wrong? It was you who wanted to get close to me in the first place, it was you who wanted to have an affair. Why do you have the right to blame everything
on me?”
“Evelyn could never forgive you, never in a lifetime.”
“You deserve to die. Even if I go to hell, I will still curse you, never to
win her heart!”
Theodore gritted his teeth, then turned around and growled, “Do you understand sign language? Shut her up now, I want you to rip out her tongue!”
The assistant quickly complied, calling several bodyguards to rush over.

In less than five minutes, the curses completely disappeared. However, the anxiety and pain in Theodore’s heart did not ease in the slightest.
He stumbled his way to the small Buddha hall in the villa. It was built by someone when his parents were still alive.
Theodore never believed in ghosts and gods. But at this moment, he had no choice but to place his last hope in them.
Theodore’s eyes were filled with brokenness and despair. He trembled, his lips quivering as he prayed incessantly.
“Gods and Buddhas in the sky, I beg of you, even if it costs me the rest of my life, please tell me where Evelyn is and give her back to me.”
“I couldn’t make it without her.”
Then Theodore began to knock his head again and again. He knocked until his head was dizzy, and blood was dripping from his forehead without stopping. It was as if he had really manifested a spirit.
On the 99th floor, the subordinate urgently reported that there was news about Evelyn and Emma.
“Mr. Bensen, they have already closed their accounts.
Outside, it was pouring rain. Lightning flashed through the cracks in the curtains, illuminating the dark and gloomy room. Evelyn woke up gasping for breath, covered in sweat, and screaming. After confirming that the environment around her was safe, she slowly relaxed.
Her eyes adjusted to the darkness. Evelyn turned her head and saw Josie’s photo on the bedside table, causing her nose to suddenly feel a pang of sadness.

After she had calmed down her emotions, she went downstairs to get a few bottles of wine from the refrigerator. However,
newly opened
refrigerator was pushed back by a large, pale hand with distinct knuckles.
Evelyn was startled, and she struggled to lift her head, seeing the handsome face with superior bone structure and sharp angles. She bit her lip, feeling somewhat unwilling.
“Marques, what are you doing scaring people in the middle of the night?”
Marques raised an eyebrow and muttered to himself, “It seems to be true.”
“What is it really? Evelyn didn’t understand.”
Marques forcefully shoved the still warm milk into Evelyn’s hand. Looking at her cold face with a vacant expression in her eyes, a hint of a soft smile couldn’t help but appear on his usually indifferent face.
“Why do you think my mom suddenly said she wants to stay here with me for a few days?”
“It was Madam Finchum who approached us first, and she told us everything.”
“Evelyn, actually I felt something was off the first time I saw you again.”
“You used to love to smile so much when you were young, but since I came here a month ago, I haven’t even seen you smile more than five times.”
