Chapter 6
Dylan ran into my arms in tears and wiped the cream from my body.
“Mom, what happened to you? Did those bad people hurt you? Rest assured. I’ll even the score for you!”
With Tristan and Dylan around me, I felt much better. I smiled and wanted to stroke Dylan’s hair, but I didn’t have the strength to lift my hand.
In the end. I passed out.
When I regained consciousness, I was in a ward.
Melina Finley, my best friend, was beside my bed. Seeing me open my eyes, she was thrilled.
“You finally came to!
“Many things happened in Austin on the day you were in a coma!”
I supported my head on my hand and sat up slowly. I didn’t see Tristan. and Dylan, so I asked in a hoarse voice, “Why aren’t Tristan and Dylan here?”
Melina snorted
“They are evening the score for you.
“Dylan looks sweet, but he is more hard–headed than Tristan and threatened to throw those people into the ocean. The two of them should be taking care of those people.
“The power structure in the country will be totally different. Tristan has
been focusing on developing his business abroad over the past 3 years. This year, he plans to move the business back and doesn’t know where to start. Those people happened to give him a chance. The Bailey family, the Kauffman family, and the Hudson family are all powerful families. But Tristan put them in a difficult situation within only one day.
“Their products across the country were taken off the shelves in virtual and physical stores in just 3 hours. No trace of their former existence can be found. Besides, their headquarters buildings were emptied!
“According to the photos taken by the reporters waiting outside the party hall. the guests came out without their fourth fingers and even fourth toes.
“You should see what they look like. They look so scared that they even peed or shit despite themselves!”
Hearing Melina’s words, I felt warm.
Tristan still cared about me so much, but what he did was a little extreme.
Those people just helped hold me. I only wanted to trip them up in the business world.
But Tristan did so much more.
“Right. Do you know what Tristan did to Darrell?”
Melina looked at me with a sneer of satisfaction.
I signaled her to go on.
“Darrell vanished with no trace. The rumor has it that Tristan killed him. but I don’t buy it. After all, they are related. Although they didn’t grow up together, Tristan wouldn’t have done such a horrible thing A little bird told me that Tristan had sent Darrell to Africa.
“Darrell lived a soft life and had so many people taking care of him. Tristan won’t let him have a comfortable life there. I wonder if Darrell
will be back alive.”
“What about Joselyn?” I asked.
“She was awful to you and is not related to Tristan. She must… You know what I mean.”
Melina didn’t finish the sentence, but I understood.
Before I could say another word, the ward door was pushed open. Tristan and Dylan ran to my bed with a worried look.
Tristan barely showed his feelings, but his eyes were red now.
“Honey, you finally came to. You scared the hell out of me!
“I found out who had hurt you over the past 3 days and punished every one of them. Don’t worry. Without my permission, Darrell won’t be able to come back. And you won’t see him again.”
