Jacqueline walked down a street in Arcton, something in her gut telling her that she was being followed.
She kept glancing over her shoulder. Everything looked normal, but she couldn't bring herself to trust anyone.
Fear crept in, and her palms grew damp with sweat.
Ever since she fled to Arcton, she had cut ties with the Jacobson family and turned into their enemy.
Their protection was no longer an option, which meant she couldn't keep the bodyguards they had assigned to her.
But there was one exception—Peter Atkins. He might have been a bit of a fool, but he had a soft spot for Jacqueline.
Jacqueline knew how he felt about her, so she had brought him along when she fled to Arcton.
She said in a low voice, "Peter, I feel like someone is following us."
Peter replied, "Don't worry, Ms. Sanders. No matter what happens, I'll protect you with my life."
At six feet tall and packed with muscle, Peter had always made her feel safe back in Orkford. But now that she had escaped to Arcton, things were different.
After all, Stephen had already sent people to hunt her down, and James was too busy to care about her.
After getting into the car, Jacqueline said uneasily, "Peter, you might not be able to protect me from the Jacobson family's men."
Peter sat in the driver's seat, starting the car.
Jacqueline urged him. "Hurry up and drive back to the villa. I think it'd be best if we lay low for now. I feel like the Jacobson family has already tracked me down."
But before their white car could get far, a black pickup truck slammed into them, bringing them to a jarring stop.
Peter pulled out his gun. "Ms. Sanders, get down!"
With that, the sound of gunfire erupted.
Jacqueline's legs nearly gave out from fear. She trembled as she lay low inside the car.
The thought that she might actually die here terrified her.
Bullets tore through the windows, leaving jagged holes. The sharp, metallic scent of blood filled the air.
Jacqueline cried out in terror. "Peter, are you hurt?"

Whoa! Hahahahahaha! Go, Sophia! Burn, stupid Rowena! Lol...
Sooo~ Chapters 310-318 were just a repeat of Jacqueline’s punishment, official expulsion from the Jacobson family, and arrest. With few changes since Tessa and Stephen are not together this time. So Tessa didn’t witness how Jacqueline was tortured at Stephen’s base, though at least Tessa was still called over and witnessed how Stephen officially expelled Jacqueline from the Jacobson family and how Stephen’s subordinate made Jacqueline grovel in front of Tessa. Lol. I hope Jacqueline’s really out of the story now....
Also a lot of chapters were missing here. I went back to the application where it was originally published that’s why i know that this site is not reliable...
Fucked up book! Seems like the authors were not talking to each other. LOL. Yes authors, because of the inconsistencies....
The story went downhill after pg200 1. Why is Jacqueline back… she was expelled from the family already 2. There was no reason for Rowena to be mad at Tessa 3. The Jacobson already knows that Stephen wants to get back witb Tessa after they deal with James, so why is Rowena pushing hard? LOL 4. The family also knows that Stephen and Nancy have some sort of deal. The story was okay from page 1-199, but clearly it’s a thumbs down. I can deal with grammatical errors, but story errors is just different now....
This is funny! Jacqueline was also the culprit why James knew that nancy was Stephen's cousin. So, really, what happened when steohen tortured jacqueline hahah...
I wonder how many authors does this book have? Suddenly jacqueline was back and continue to bad mouth tessa. And was stunned that tessa knows her feelings about stephen. And then rowena was freaking mad at tessa too; because there werw multiple instances that tessa sharp-tongued her. 🤣...
What is wrong with the story flow? At chapter 160-164 there’s this whole thing about Stephen revealing in front of all the Jacobsons family members about Jacqueline’s inappropriate feelings towards him and her involvement in murder. There’s even this “Just like that, Jacqueline was officially expelled from the Jacobson family. Stephen then promptly handed her to the authorities.” So I was already glad the bitch is out of the picture. And then suddenly at chapter 236, Jacqueline appears again like nothing happened, still being the adoptive daughter of the Jacobson family and the family being unaware of her feelings for Stephen. Seriously? Doesn’t make sense anymore....
The latest update is just a repetition of the previous chapters...
I don’t like that Stephen is dropping Tessa. They could work together to go after James. But if this happens then I’ll stop reading....
