Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 126. Glenn's Kidnapping
"I can arrange all of that... But, can you tell me what happened to Riverstone, Ms. Eugene? Where is Boris, actually? And... the grown men?" Glenn asked, looking worried.This time, Ms. Eugene leaned back in her chair, her gaze distant, carefully choosing her words to tell her story."Actually, I'm a caretaker substitute. Boris and the grown men left the town due to gang fights with the gangs in Shadow Hill. They're hiding somewhere and left the children and women here. The town was chaotic when I first arrived, and I've been trying to maintain it as best as possible because they have no one else to rely on. But man... This is tougher than managing the women at the Smith mansion.""I don't have adequate resources, and because they're uneducated, they're difficult to control, so I had to take extreme measures with minimal damage.""So, that's more or less the situation. Because I grew up here like Connor, I couldn't just leave this place in its current state. It's a kind of moral oblig

Glenn was astonished to hear the man's demands, "So you know who I am?!" he shouted from inside the car. As far as he remembered, no one knew about his trip to Riverstone except his family."Of course... I couldn't miss the sight of a wandering money bag far from its safe like this... When else, if not now? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity waiting for me to seize!" Juan joked happily."Juan! Let him go! You have nothing to do with him!" Eugene commanded firmly, disregarding her own condition being held by Juan Ethes's henchmen."Silence! I no longer need you, so if you still value your life, then shut your filthy mouth," Juan threatened, pointing his Glock at Eugene."Calm down, Ms. Eugene, let me handle this," Glenn ordered."Oh... How touching, but shut up! Old man! Do what I tell you!" Juan shouted at Connor, tossing a cell phone at him, hitting his chest before he caught it skillfully."Now!" Juan ordered again.Connor glanced at Glenn inside the car and, after considering

"Mom," Victor whispered to Eleanor. The woman was relaxing on the rig. After Sebastian's death; they had now switched jobs as mercenaries for anyone with money and connections.They were becoming "cleaners" for business or political rivals who needed to be eliminated by the orderer. As long as the price was right, they didn't care who the target was."I thought you had truly considered me dead, Victor," his Mom retorted."It's easier to accept, honestly. That concept lives longer than this new concept of 'parents' you implied to us," Victor replied equally vehemently."So, clearly, you're contacting me because you need my help. Is this how you ask for something from your mom?" Eleanor asked, not taking her son's words."It's not for me, but for Glenn Smith," Victor said briefly, managing to catch his Mom's attention."What's wrong with Glenn Smith? Is he still bothering you? I thought you were on good terms," Eleanor inquired."We are; that's why I'm asking for your help; he's in trou

"Glenn! I can't reach you anymore. I'm worried about you," Hazel greeted as she ran towards Glenn.The man welcomed Hazel with open arms and hugged her tightly, inhaling the scent of Hazel's body that he missed dearly. After less than two hours in Juan's prison, his nose felt anosmic, and Hazel's scent was the one he wanted to remember the most.Unfortunately, it was the opposite for Hazel. Her nose wrinkled as she caught a whiff of her husband's smell. It wasn't the masculine scent she expected from him—not that stale, faecal odour.Hazel reflexively felt nauseous, making her husband grin."Where have you been?" Hazel asked sharply, staring at her husband."Later... I need to change clothes immediately, or you'll add your vomit smell to my body," Glenn replied with a grin."Glenn, you smell like a horse stable," his mother scolded, although she was still ten meters away from him."Well, can't complain with that..." Glenn quipped, then quickly headed to the bathroom to clean up.He sc

"Perfect," praised Hazel as she looked at her husband carefully, adjusting Glenn's tie to make it symmetrical, then inspecting his suit to remove any visible dust or loose threads.Glenn watched his wife, smiling inwardly, feeling so loved."Are you sure it's perfect?" her husband teased, making Hazel squint as she reconsidered what she might have missed."It's all good; I think nothing's left out," Hazel replied confidently."You haven't given me a good luck kiss yet," teased Glenn as he pulled Hazel closer.The woman blushed, standing on tiptoes to give Glenn a brief kiss on the lips. As she tried to pull away, Glenn held her back, demanding a more extended, hotter kiss, accompanied by squeezing his wife's ass."Glenn, Glenn! You will be late!" his wife exclaimed, pulling away from Glenn. She wasn't prepared and had to take a deep breath because Glenn made it difficult for her to breathe earlier.Glenn shook his head, refusing to let go of Hazel. He pulled her back into his embrace,

"What did you say to that boy? He looks like he's seen a ghost," Eleanor whispered to Mason, pointing at Glenn, who was still standing silently with furrowed brows while observing Mason with sharp eyes."I just said that his wife is beautiful," Mason replied casually, trying to dismiss the issue.Eleanor immediately glanced at Hazel with a displeased look, assessing the woman from head to toe—the young and radiant face and body, the innocence that couldn't be hidden, the naivety.Hazel's sense of dressing was poor, unlike herself; she didn't know how to accentuate her beautiful body."Have you lowered your standards?" Eleanor sneered, making Mason smile wryly.He gently lifted Eleanor's chin to make her look at him, smiling at his wife before kissing her softly. He ignored the stares of the people around them who were witnessing their public display of affection.After breaking the kiss, Eleanor seemed to be able to smile again. She enjoyed seeing the jealous looks from other women di
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 132. Eleanor's Visit
"I want to come..." Hazel pleaded with Glenn as he was about to leave for Riverstone. He affectionately stroked Hazel's head.Glenn had already told her about the conditions at Riverstone and how the facilities there were inadequate for Hazel to visit. Especially when he showed her photos of the children's conditions there, Hazel didn't feel disgusted; instead, she felt even more compelled to help them."Not yet, love. If the conditions there are safe, I will definitely take you. I don't want anything to happen to you," Glenn replied, his eyes looking into Hazel's lifeless eyes, asking his wife to understand.Hazel looked sulky; she knew her husband would answer like that, but she still felt disappointed. The image of the unfortunate children at Riverstone haunted her mind. Their hollow eyes, shabby clothes, sunken cheeks, and skinny bodies disturbed her every moment and made her restless.She didn't say it to Glenn, but she knew Glenn noticed her sudden silence and frequent solitude,

"Are you ready?" Irina asked her daughter-in-law."Yes, Mother, do you think this is enough?" Hazel asked, stepping out of the room and admiring herself in front of her mother-in-law.She was wearing a sleeveless pink lace dress with a knee-length A-line cut that made her look clean, elegant, and feminine."Perfect," praised her mother-in-law. "Oh, wait, I think you need this to complete your look," suggested Irina, removing her white pearl earrings and placing them on Hazel's ears. "Now it's perfect," she added with satisfaction.Hazel looked at herself in the mirror again and was pleased with her mother-in-law's styling. "I should learn styling from you, mother," Hazel suggested.Irina, who never had a daughter, was naturally happy to hear Hazel's suggestion. Finally, she had a companion to discuss clothing preferences, accompany her on shopping trips, and make selections. She would keep Hazel busy with her while Glenn was away."You should make time for tomorrow; I have a new chic

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

The foggy memories slowly became clearer as Mason stepped onto the porch of the house he had long abandoned. Dark thoughts crept into his mind—if he knocked on the door, would he be welcomed? Or would everything be different?Mason took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell of the seemingly deserted house.Several minutes passed, and Mason continued to stand there, waiting. 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? That is, if you’re willing.”Beatrice’s eyes remained fixed on Mason’s pitiful figure. Whatever had happened, something terrible must have hit Mason hard.
