Stephen sneered coldly. "Are you threatening me right now? Do you think you're worthy?"
Back in high school, when Susan confessed her feelings to him, he had politely turned her down.
However, she clung to him like a persistent shadow, always trailing behind him.
Her relentless pursuit of him became the talk of the school.
Annoyed beyond measure, he leveraged his family's influence to force her to transfer schools.
After Susan left, he finally had some peace.
But it didn't last long. After he entered university, he encountered her again.
Somehow, she'd found out that he had applied to Rivertown University and followed in his footsteps.
Every day, she brought him breakfast, attended his classes, and constantly showered him with love letters and gifts.
Once again, Susan became the campus sensation for the odd behavior.
Susan cried bitterly, "Stephen, do you really not care about whether I live or die? How can you be so heartless? Is my life worth less than an engagement ceremony?"
Stephen remained as calm as a machine devoid of emotion, his tone icily indifferent. "This act of yours might work on other men, but it won't work on me."
Susan wanted to say some more, but Stephen didn't give her the chance.
He didn't waste another word and decisively ended the call before sending people to find her. The engagement ceremony had to proceed as planned.
It wasn't that he cared about Susan, but if she wasn't found quickly, she would surely disrupt the engagement ceremony.
If she truly decided to jump off the building and die at the engagement ceremony, it would be horrifying.
That would leave Tessa with psychological trauma, and their marriage might not even happen.
Jacqueline took a slow drag of her cigarette, exhaled a small ring, and uttered two words lightly, "Useless fools."
The bodyguard lowered his head without a word.
Jacqueline raised her wrist to check the time on her watch. "It's about time, so let's go."
She stood up and looked down at the tear-streaked Susan sitting on the floor. Her eyes narrowed in contempt.
Jacqueline laughed with a smile as sinister as satan's. Though her face held a smile, it elicited a chilling and eerie sense of dread.
"Ms. Sanders, I advise that you pull yourself together and follow the plan. If anything goes wrong on your end, I won't pay a single cent of your father's medical bills!"
With that, Jacqueline didn't wait for Susan's reaction and turned to leave.
Susan wiped off her tears, stood up from the floor, and followed behind Jacqueline in a daze.

Yuhohoooo!!! Finally!!!...
Aaand~ Tessa and Stephen are finally back together! Yaaaaay!...
Why make an uninteresting, irrelevant twist when readers are waiting for Tess and Stephen to be together?...
Gosh just let Tessa and Stephen get back together already! Ugh...
Oh my god, when is this book finishing... they're not even back together yet and more nonsense side plots.....
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....
