로그인With that, Venus calmly pulled out her phone, calling the police and clearly reporting the events that had just taken place.Meanwhile, Sigourney still stood stunned, shaken by Jennifer's sudden attack. She glanced down at the knife glinting coldly on the pavement and shuddered.Truly, Jennifer was vicious beyond measure.She had aimed straight for Sigourney's belly, fully aware Sigourney was pregnant.Sigourney clenched her fists in outrage, forcing herself to remain composed. Her voice was icy as she fixed her gaze on Jennifer."Jennifer, why do you try to harm me?""In the end, what have I done wrong?""It was your husband and your daughter who tried to ruin me, and I merely struck back. Was that wrong?"That hit a raw nerve with Jennifer. She thrashed wildly, even stamping hard on Tony's foot until he winced in pain. Still, he did not let go. Instead, he held her tighter while they waited for the police to arrive."Hmph, and you still dare say that? Is it all because of you that
After embracing Venus, Sigourney returned to her office to deal with the pending matters. She had been working from home for quite some time, so there was still much that required her direct attention.By the time she was finished, it was already noon. Since it was her first day back at work, she had arranged to have lunch with Venus and the two bodyguards at a nearby restaurant.After the morning together, Sigourney had grown a little more accustomed to Hugh and Tony. Their faces might have appeared stern, but their personalities were actually rather approachable and easygoing. They were also very gallant.As soon as they sat down, they carefully pulled out chairs for her and Venus. Throughout the meal, Hugh and Tony were attentive, pouring water and handing them napkins. The atmosphere could even be considered harmonious.Once the meal was over, Sigourney and Venus walked ahead, while Hugh and Tony followed behind. Their expressions returned to cold vigilance, scanning the surround
...By evening, when Theodore returned home, Sigourney quickly recounted the morning's events. His gaze immediately grew grave."Is that true? How dare Jennifer be so brazen?"Jennifer's vileness had indeed surpassed anything Theodore or Sigourney could have imagined. Thinking of the shock and lingering fear Sigourney had suffered that afternoon, Theodore's heart ached with sorrow.He held Sigourney carefully in his arms, murmuring words of comfort."Don't be afraid, it's alright now.""From now on, I'll remind Aunt Miller never to accept strange parcels from unknown senders.""We won't give Jennifer another chance to play her tricks."Sigourney nodded, her anxious heart gradually steadying. She also knew that hiding forever was no solution."Starting tomorrow, I'll go to Nichols Corporation and work as usual.""After all, hiding is not the answer."Jennifer always managed to find ways to get close and do her harm. Sigourney spoke resolutely, silently making up her mind.However, The
A few days later, out of lingering worry, Sigourney obediently stayed at home to recuperate, giving her body ample rest.Theodore, however, continued to go to the corporation each day as usual.One morning, while Sigourney was lazily sprawled across the sofa, snacking on grapes, the doorbell suddenly rang. She made a move to get up and open it, but Aunt Miller hurried forward to stop her."Let me get the door. You just keep resting."Sigourney nodded gently and remained reclined on the sofa.A short while later, Aunt Miller returned, carrying a strange parcel in her hands. She glanced at Sigourney, looking somewhat surprised, and said,"I don't know who sent this. The deliveryman couldn't give any clear information about the sender.""So I'm not sure whether we should open it."Sigourney sat up, and Aunt Miller joined her on the sofa. Though Sigourney was curious, she didn't dare act rashly."Have you ordered anything recently?""Or maybe a seller sent it but forgot to include their d
"How does it feel to be tailed? Comfortable, isn't it?"From the very first words, Jennifer's tone was scornful, her voice unable to conceal its excitement and smugness. Theodore immediately realized that the gray car earlier was connected to Jennifer, and his voice hardened as he demanded,"What do you mean by this? Why would you do such a thing?"Hearing Theodore's voice, Jennifer sounded briefly surprised before letting out another sneer."Do what? I didn't do anything at all.""I was only worried you two wouldn't get home safely, so I kindly followed behind to protect you."Her tone was laced with acid."But who would have thought you people didn't appreciate the good intention, even deliberately trying to shake me off. Bastards."Her sharp voice burst into curses, but Theodore remained composed."What do you mean? What are you trying to do?"He had no time to waste exchanging meaningless words with Jennifer. Yet Jennifer deliberately avoided getting to the point."What I do is my
With the uneasy weight of the afternoon still upon them, Sigourney and Theodore hailed a taxi to return to Twilight Estate. They had thought matters were gradually settling down, but reality proved that perhaps they had relaxed their vigilance too soon.The moment they entered the car, an inexplicable sense of unease lingered, even though the driver appeared kind and honest. That feeling only seemed to intensify as the vehicle rolled steadily onto the main road.Theodore and Sigourney exchanged wary glances, their nerves instinctively sharpening, as if bracing for whatever was about to unfold. The taxi glided along at a stable speed, smooth and unwavering.But suddenly, the driver spoke, his tone laced with confusion."Sir, Madam, is the person driving behind you a friend or relative of yours?""I have the impression that the gray car back there is following us."At those words, both Theodore and Sigourney heightened their vigilance, eyes flicking to the rearview mirror. Indeed, a my
Sigourney was still trembling, but Theodore held her firmly in his arms. Hearing her words, he felt a surge of concern himself, instinctively casting a glance toward the door.Perhaps it had been Sigourney's fierce voice earlier that had scared the intruder away. Yet whatever their purpose, the fac
Although Sigourney was extremely worried, she forced herself to stay calm. Through her sobs, she fumbled for her phone in her handbag and called the hospital, her voice choked as she reported Theodore's condition.It wasn't until the doctor confirmed that the information had been received and that
As every gaze gradually shifted toward Sigourney, she calmly produced the share transfer agreement Emma had signed the day before and explained gently."As you all know, due to certain personal matters, my mom is no longer able to continue managing Nichols Corporation, nor participate in its busine
When Sigourney stepped off the stage, the hall remained bustling with activity. Many people approached her to converse, congratulate her, and gradually discuss the upcoming collaborative projects.Throughout it all, Sigourney remained the same, maintaining a gentle smile at the corners of her lips.
