Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 108. Alive, or Dead?
"Sebastian Thornhill got shot!" exclaimed a journalist still broadcasting Sebastian's arrest.Glenn, working while watching the broadcast, immediately put down his pen and reached for his phone to get a closer look.Sebastian Thornhill lay sprawled in a pool of blood.‘Could that be Victor's doing?’ Glenn speculated, but he wasn't sure if Victor could have such brazenness.Then, his thoughts turned to the group that rescued the Davis brothers.‘The Eyes? I thought they would save Victor; why would they trap him instead?’ Glenn pondered."Is there something going on between them? It seems so because they only appeared together yesterday. That means they're hiding somewhere right now..."He watched as Sebastian's body, carried by medical personnel, was loaded into an ambulance headed straight for the hospital.His phone rang; it was his father."Have you seen the news?" his father asked directly, without preamble."Yes, father.""If not the Davis brothers, he'll link it to us," his fath

"Did you hit him?" Eleanor asked, curious about her sharpshooter crew, who had descended from the building and blended in with the pedestrians as their camouflage.There was a brief pause before her crew member replied, "I think so.""Yes!" Eleanor cheered joyfully, clenching her fists, then high-fiving the current duty crew in the control room.Not everyone got a chance to high-five her when one of her crew members disrupted the mood, "Hold on, El, you might need to know this," he reported, showing the headline accusing Sebastian of assaulting Smith's children yesterday."They'll be hunted even more," predicted another crew member.Eleanor's jaw tightened. "Let it be. I'm sure they can handle it. This is the price to pay." Her determination made the entire crew glance at each other."Uh-oh..." muttered the crew member who informed Eleanor about the accusation earlier."What now?" Eleanor snapped, starting to get annoyed when she should have been enjoying the thrill of victory."They

"Do you know where he's being treated?" Eleanor asked one of her crew members over the phone.She walked briskly, accompanied by Ari right behind her, not too far, yet not too close to avoid collision if Eleanor suddenly stopped."Uh-huh… okay," Eleanor concluded after getting information from her crew at the rig's control centre.Her mind raced quickly; if she showed up in her too-casual attire like this, a plain shirt with jeans, she wouldn't be able to bypass the procedures in the VVIP treatment room.She headed towards the cafeteria where all the hospital visitors usually gathered. Upon arrival, her eyes scanned the room and found the target she was aiming for.A woman with a thick fur coat that looked very fake but still more effective in convincing hospital staff than her current appearance.She approached the counter and ordered a double shot of hot coffee. Her eyes never left the woman in the fake fur coat, enjoying her last bites.Eleanor leaned against a pole near the counte

"Who are you?" Yvonne asked, courage seizing her in the moment; in front of her, a murder was about to take place, and the victim was her own Dad.At least she needed an answer, didn't she, or rather, she deserved one."Go, Yvonne, I don't want you to witness this," the old woman commanded without turning her face from Sebastian.The woman's companion approached Yvonne and shielded her view from the scene unfolding before her. Yvonne stood still, unsure of what to decide."Yvonne... she—" her Dad was about to reveal the old woman's identity, but his words were instantly cut off."Silence!" the old woman snapped firmly.Yvonne squirmed. Somehow, she replayed the image in her mind, recalling the details she had missed, such as how the woman looked at Dad and Dad at her.Then... the resemblance between them."No way..." she murmured softly; she couldn't even believe the suspicion in her head."But why, aunt?" Yvonne finally asked, daring herself.Because she thought there was no harm in

Amber smiled at the idea in her head. If she succeeded in seducing the young man, she wouldn't have to leave all her luxuries behind here.She wouldn't go back to the streets. She would never stoop so low!She was about to step out to defend the man before the head of security. But her steps halted instantly upon hearing a high-pitched voice."No, you're not!" someone barked firmly.Amber knew it was Yvonne's voice, and she had no intention of facing that pretentious woman in her current position, which had no bargaining power.It would be better if she tried not to be seen. That way, she hoped the woman would forget about her and not drive her out of her current sanctuary. As she debated with herself, a quarrel broke out outside."Oh? Just because you inherited the Thornhill surname from your mother doesn't make you worthy. As far as I know, Thornhill's legitimate heir is a man. If there isn't one, then you must marry, and your husband will be entitled. As far as I know... You're sin
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 113. Couple Quarrel
"What's wrong?" Hazel asked as she hugged Glenn from behind.He hadn't noticed her presence earlier, but now he held Hazel's fingers that trailed across his stomach, enjoying the embrace of the woman who was now his wife.He turned around to face Hazel, smiling mischievously at his wife. Hazel stepped back, attempting to avoid him, knowing his husband's antics well.Glenn pulled her closer until Hazel's face was buried in his chest. "Where are you going? You can't go anywhere," Glenn teased.Hazel tickled him, causing Glenn to squirm and eventually release his grip on her. When Hazel tried to tease Glenn again, he warned her."Don't even try," he pointed at Hazel.Hazel looked at him with a victorious grin, "Finally, I know how to retaliate, young master," she teased.As Hazel moved forward to tickle Glenn again, Glenn suddenly held both of her hands and turned her around. He held both of Hazel's wrists with one hand while the other roamed her body to his favourite spot, playing with

After their heated activities, Hazel rested her head on Glenn's chest as he lay sprawled out asleep.She studied Glenn's face closely, the face of the man she had secretly longed for and never dared to hope for reciprocation.Now, who would have thought that man would become her husband, and even love her so dearly?Hazel's fingertips traced imaginary lines on Glenn's chest as her mind wandered. She imagined how fortunate her life had become when suddenly Glenn's hand caught hers."Want some more?" teased Glenn, grinning.Hazel quickly withdrew her hand from Glenn's grasp, panicked. "No—," she refused, shaking her head vigorously.Her body felt sore after their week-long heated encounters. Hazel had lost count of how many times they had done it in a day, stopping only for meals and bathroom breaks or when she needed to rest, which rarely exceeded four hours.She couldn't understand why she needed Glenn's presence so much now, unable to be far from him. It was as if her body craved Gle

"Love, where are you going?!" Hazel shouted, trying to catch up with her husband. But she was too late as Glenn seemed not to hear her and had already gotten into the car.She saw her husband in a hurry to meet someone who was speaking on the phone with him. Hazel furrowed her brows, 'What urgent matter is making him rush like this, leaving me without saying goodbye?' thought Hazel.But then she speculated if it might be bad news from his parents-in-law, and she called Irina."Hi, darling. Are you guys close by?" Irina asked directly, assuming Hazel told them they were going to the Smith mansion.Once again, Hazel was puzzled because Irina's voice sounded ordinary as if nothing was happening."No, mother… Uh… Is there something going on, Mother? Glenn seems to be leaving in a hurry; I thought something bad had happened to you both," Hazel finally asked, unable to hide her curiosity."No, darling… Your father is here too, relaxing and having his afternoon tea," Irina replied.

In the month of their baby’s due date, Glenn received the surprising news that Yvonne and Victor were getting married. “Glenn, hurry up!” Hazel hurriedly put on her earrings as they were almost late for Victor and Yvonne’s wedding ceremony. Glenn quickly grabbed his jacket from the back of the chair and hugged Hazel from behind. Seeing Hazel with her big belly made him fall in love with her even more. “Not now,” Hazel grumbled, annoyed. The more Hazel was irritable, the more Glenn enjoyed teasing her. They stepped out of the house and got into the car. Glenn drove at a moderate speed, occasionally reaching for Hazel’s hand and kissing it gently. Hazel felt incredibly happy, showered with love from her husband.

I know you had a lot to take care of.”They walked through the corridor and into the living room. Glenn, who had just come out of his office, joined them. They all sat comfortably on the sofa.“How does it feel to be expecting a baby?” Mei asked with a giggle.Hazel was due in four months. Time had flown by, and her belly was already showing significantly.“I feel ugly,” Hazel complained.“Ugly? You look so beautiful, Hazel. I’m even jealous of you,” Mei replied. “Being a mother is a privilege not every woman gets.”“I don’t know… I feel so emotionally unstable.” Hazel pouted.Glenn reached for Hazel’s shoulder and hugged he

The effects of the COVID-19 virus had completely vanished in Eagertown, and everyone had returned to their normal activities without worry. Glenn’s company had become more renowned, producing vaccines not only for COVID-19 but for other diseases as well. Glenn was very busy, but he always made time for Hazel.Glenn had just left the hospital after accompanying Hazel for a pregnancy checkup, when they happened to run into Beatrice. Apparently, Beatrice had just arrived there.“Mrs. Zimmerman, what are you doing here? Are you sick?” Hazel asked.“Oh, I’m not sick, Hazel. I have a meeting with some doctors here to discuss sending medical aid to remote areas in Latin America.” Beatrice chuckled softly.“You’re really busy,” commented Glenn. “Take care of your health, Mrs. Zimmerman.”Beatrice nodded. “Thank you for your concern, Glenn.”Then she continued, “Since I happened to run into you here, Glenn, there’s something I’d like to talk about. I need your help.”Glenn was momentarily tak

“Where’s Glenn?” Yvonne asked as she and Victor approached Hazel, who was already sitting and waiting at the café where they had arranged to meet.“He’s taking Sean and his grandmother to Ms. Eugene’s place.”Yvonne only nodded briefly, then took a seat. Victor immediately started flipping through the menu, feeling very hungry.“They’re going to stay there? It seems Eagertown isn’t suitable for Sean,” Victor commented.Hazel sighed softly. “It might be too noisy here.”“Some people just don’t feel comfortable living in the city, Hazel. It doesn’t mean they don’t like being with you.”“I know.” Hazel only nodded wearily.Hazel felt dizzy and her stomach was uneasy, but she forced herself to meet Yvonne and Victor because she wanted to discuss the charity. Yvonne was going to provide a report on the funds that had been allocated and where they had been sent, including to Ms. Eugene’s place.However, Hazel didn’t want to talk about that at all; she just wanted to lie down in bed.“Hazel?

As Glenn expected, it seemed that Sean and the grandmother were immediately captivated. Both of them looked at Glenn.“This is a very nice place, Glenn,” praised Sean.From the crowd, Ms. Eugene emerged with a wide smile. She immediately greeted Glenn, Sean, and Grandma Mari.“This must be Sean and Grandma Mari,” nodded Ms. Eugene. “Mr. Glenn has called me, and I am really delighted if you want to stay here.”Grandma Mari agreed. “Of course. I feel at home already.”“You can look around if you like,” offered Ms. Eugene.Sean and the grandmother held hands, and they soon mingled with the people busy at work. Meanwhile, Glenn and Ms. Eugene watched over the bustling activity.“You’re very busy here?” asked Glenn.Ms. Eugene chuckled. “We got a lot of help from Mrs. Zimmerman’s charity and Miss Yvonne.”“Oh, really?”It turned out that the charity ment

A week after Mason's funeral, Beatrice visited Glenn's office. According to Mason's mandate, the company acquired by Glenn would still provide Beatrice with the remaining funds. It was no small amount since Glenn had bought Mason’s company at a fair price.Beatrice had signed the documents and handed them to Glenn. She looked very composed, though her heart had been broken twice after losing Mason forever.“It’s all done, Glenn. Thank you for your cooperation,” Beatrice said.“Once again, my deepest condolences, Mrs. Zimmerman.”A faint smile appeared on Beatrice’s lips. “What happened to Mason did break my heart. But in the end, he tried to be a good person, and I am still proud of him.”There was a light in Beatrice’s eyes, indicating she had come to terms with everything. Even when Mason returned, he was the Mason she had once known.“He will be remembered as a good man. I will make sure of that,” Glenn nodded.“Thank you, you are very kind.”“So, what are your plans moving forwa

Eleanor brought a cup of hot coffee, and though she had changed her clothes, her face still looked disheveled. She smiled sweetly as she placed the coffee on the table, then sat next to Mason. She tried to touch him, but Mason gently moved her hand to the sofa.“Once again, I’m sorry, Eleanor. But I can’t continue our relationship,” Mason said.“You’re going back to Beatrice, aren’t you?”“No. But we’ve made peace, and I know she doesn’t want me anymore.”“Then why? Why are you going back to her?” Eleanor asked, her eyes sad. “Stay here with me.”Mason gave a faint smile, his face looking sorrowful. He felt like the most despicable person in the world, having hurt both Beatrice and now Eleanor. They both deserved happiness, something Mason couldn’t offer.When Beatrice decided to keep their relationship as friends for now, Mason accepted it. He felt he had to be fair, which meant Eleanor also needed to find her own happiness.“You need to find your own happiness, Eleanor.” Mason kisse

Irina and Hazel seemed eager to hear what had brought Beatrice and Mason together to Glenn’s office.“Did you make up?” Irina asked.Beatrice nodded. “As friends, I think. I can’t just accept Mason’s feelings, I don’t know… I don’t want to force myself.”“Yes, of course, Mrs. Zimmerman. Even though you're his wife, you have the right to find your own happiness. If it’s better to be friends, then that’s what you should do. But if your feelings say otherwise...” Hazel began, but Irina interrupted her.“No! Don’t go back to him. I can’t imagine it. Just stay friends, Beatrice,” Irina said firmly.Beatrice chuckled. “Yes, I’ll just follow wherever our story leads.”“He cam

Finally, the front door opened, and Beatrice appeared. Despite looking older, her face was bright. She had found her own peace.However, the arrival of Mason seemed to shatter that peace instantly.“Mason?” Beatrice looked at him in disbelief.“I’d like to talk to you, Bea. May I?
