Chapter 1652
“Are you seething with rage? I imagine, if Chloe does show up, you’ll have to watch as the child inside her leaves her body. What kind of expressions will you and your daughter have then?”
Yasmine merely looked at her coldly, and finally responded with a soft, icy laugh.
Wendy was once again irritated by her indifferent demeanor, and her brows were furrowing. “You two, mother and daughter, are both masters at feigning calmness”
Yasmine continued to stare at her coolly
“I just don’t want to waste too much time arguing with a lunatic “c2
She gave a small smirk, and her eyes twinkled with a hint of amusement and a touch of pity. People should live however they want. If you think her being pregnantnow would make you happier, then by all means, believe it
The smile on Wendy’s face gradually faded. The probing gaze landed on Yasmine’s face. Was Chloe really pregnant or not? If she was pregnant, as a mother, wouldn’t hearing these words unsettle her?
Were all those speculations on the news fake?
But, there was no smoke without fire. Why else would the two of them suddenly decide to shop for baby items?
And only for twins at that. Their intentions were too obvious
But how could Chloe be pregnant without Yasmine knowing?
If she had just found out, that was also impossible. They were with Yasmine throughout her rehabilitation, and the ride home was spent in the car There was no way Chloe could suddenly confirm her pregnancy
She thought about it over and over, but it just didnt make sense. She thought she could get some answers from Yasmine, but her presence only made things more confusing
After glaring at Yasmine for a while with a hateful gaze, Wendy finally pursed her lips and let out a cold, derisive chuckle. “You’re right, in the end, death is inevitable. Once your precious daughter shows up, I’ll find out whether she’s pregnant or not!”
Yasmine closed her eyes, giving her no response.
“We re almost at the destination There’s a checkpoint up ahead, remember not to utter a word.”
This was Wendy’s first time in such a place. She knew it was known for its unrest and unruly inhabitants with terrible tempers. A slight misstep could end up getting her shot Naturally, she was nervous, but the fact that these people could calmly choose this place, and were confident they could pass the checkpoint showed they had some skills. She nodded to indicate her understanding.
Yasmine slowly opened her eyes, looking towards the front of the car.
In the darkness, she could see the alternating flashing of red and blue lights up ahead. Vague figures patrolled the checkpoint with guns, clearly the
checkpoint they spoke of
Armed? Murderous?
Without thinking too much, Yasmine figured out where they were headed Having lived in P City for years, she was familiar with the borders. Coming hefe
wasn’t surprising
Wendy, a former upper–class lady had never seen such a group of thugs But at this time and place it wasn’t the time for her to act be a lady Catching up to the gang leader, she asked with a shaky voice, see that everyone here is defiant, and wouldn’t easily submit to others why do they acknowledge the boss?”
Chapter 1652
The gang leader laughed, looking at Wendy as if she were a fool.
“Of course, it’s because he controls the weapons they need most! Without weapons, these people are no better than dead.”
Wendy furrowed her brows. “Hasn’t anyone thought of getting weapons from other channels? Why must they…”
“Other channels? it’s said that he virtually monopolizes the weapons supply of the countries located in the middle of the world. Most of the weapons come from him. Even if you go around him, they still end up in his hands, and you also end up offending him, so what’s the point?”
Wendy’s brow furrowed even deeper.
“As far as I know, the Harper family’s underground whiskey trade in New York ishit exactly small–scale
“But you’d still need an opportunity to get in touch with the Harpers, then successfully negotiate a deal! If they’ve already chosen their leader here, there must be a good reason! Either this guy has exceptional guts, or he’s offered a price that satisfies the locals, or there might be some other private deals.

J’ai beaucoup aimé lire ce livre et j’aurais adoré connaître la fin. Merci beaucoup à l’auteur. Je sais que ce n’est pas parfait mais je suis consciente que c’est un livre que je lis gratuitement. Les publicités qui y sont présentées sont intéressantes et m’ont aidée à faire quelques achats. J’aimerais savoir quoi faire pour continuer la lecture de ce livre. D’avance merci....
Can't understand it, the translation is poor...
Lame translation....
did it really end this way. can I have the rest of the book ending??...
So, all of them were basically forced into sexual acts by their partners the first time, then their partners wanted to seclude them from everyone. On top of that, all of are jealous of their own children. The only couple that seem to have it good were Azriel & Phoebe. This book was honestly quite sickening & there’s no way anyone should find this romantic...
These typos are so annoying..can't even understand a single word...
Some chapters are missing and some of them are repeated..it feels like story takes a jump because of it...
I really like the book but there are a lot of typos which is making it even more difficult to read and stay engaged. Author please do some edits....
Best story ever...
I've been waiting for the wedding of Chloe and Damon until the ending of this novel their wedding doesn't happen at all!......
