The best deal was to betray their daughter!Lindsey’s hand that was holding her phone clenched fiercely. She was biting the back of her other hand to prevent herself from making a sound in a fit of anger.It turned out that they already knew back then that Zayn Guggenheim had a girlfriend and still recklessly arranged with Grandpa Guggenheim to marry her off.It also seemed that since 20 years ago from the orphanage, they already had the idea of selling off their daughter!All these years, her sincerity was taken for granted and she was used in return!Twenty years! Twenty years of living together! She treated them like her real parents, but to them, she was merely an object to exchange for family benefits!At this moment, Lindsey Juhl only felt despair.She left the Juhl family home while it was still bright out and found it all to be so pathetic that it was laughable.Lindsey took a taxi and went straight to the office. She was supposed to meet with the client for a case she
The sudden shattering sound scared Lydia and she said irritatedly, "What are you doing? Is the situation still not bad enough?"Lydia was so annoyed. She scolded Lindsey Juhl, who was out of it and her usually bright eyes slowly dulled.The remaining words were on the tip of Lydia’s lips, but seeing Lindsey’s self-deprecating and poignant face, Lydia swallowed back her words."Forget it, I’ll report this matter. You can take a break for the time being while we think of other ways."Lydia patted Lindsey’s frail body and walked out of the office.After Lydia left, Lindsey remained where she stood for a long time, feeling defeated!It turned out that Jenny Lenig came back. She could not believe it!Zayn must be delighted that Lindsey could completely disappear from his life.Only his beloved could have his support and only Jenny Lenig could make Zayn do things without hesitation!Zayn coddled her in his palm until he allowed her to choose any client she wanted!Experiencing the
Stephanie Lindt did not come back to her senses until Lindsey Juhl hung up the phone."I told you! We have been raising an ungrateful child for so many years, and now she’s independent, she doesn't care about our family’s survival!"The more Stephanie thought about it, the angrier she became. To her, Lindsey was akin to a dog she had raised.Now, this dog had gone rogue and was not wagging its tail at her anymore!Henry Juhl sat on the sofa without uttering a word. He had heard their conversation on the phone earlier.Last night when he found out that Lindsey had disappeared in the middle of the night, he knew something had happened."Now Mr. Woltman is asking for her and now that little bitch won't listen! What should we do?"Henry frowned and his voice, which had been calm a minute ago, rose a little as he said, "Enough! Look at yourself! You look like a miserable old shrew!""Why are you yelling at me? It’s a life and death situation for our family and Zayn is not letting us
Apart from strangers coming and going, Zayn Guggenheim did not see anything.He frowned, hid the irritation in his heart, and accompanied Jenny Lenig into the restaurant.Zayn had to rush back to the mansion when he got a call from his grandfather. His upset face turned darker when he noticed Lindsey Juhl eating with the old man.In the presence of the old man, Zayn finished his meal in silence and waited until the old man had eaten and gone to rest. Only then he dragged Lindsey up from her seat and went straight to the second floor.He flung her hard against the wall when they stepped into the room. She felt the impact on her entire body, making her mind more aware. She looked up at the handsome, chiseled face in front of her. Zayn's face was expressionless as if the person she saw outside was a completely different person.They were so close, yet she could not feel a hint of warmth from him."This is your tactic?" Zayn snorted, revealing the mockery and disgust in his eyes.
"Oh, Ms. Juhl! You’re here! Come over! Sit!" As soon as Mr. Lee’s gaze landed on Lindsey Juhl when she entered the room, his eyes grew lustful.Lindsey clutched the document in her hand and forcefully squeezed out a smile as she politely extended her hand and said, "Mr. Lee, nice to meet you!""Haha! I'm glad to see you too!"Mr. Lee's rough, fat hands took the opportunity to touch Lindsey's hand and his wide smile gave her goosebumps."I’m glad to see you too. This is the proposal I’ve prepared. If it’s a good time, we can talk about the details."Lindsey hastily retracted her hand from his grip. Her stomach flopped and she felt like throwing up last night’s food.No matter how repulsed she was, she had to contain it because she knew that she could not piss him off at this time."We can talk about work later. Look around you, it doesn’t seem to be a very suitable place to talk about work!"Mr. Lee's expression looked upset when Lindsey withdrew her soft and slender hand beca
With the person behind him giving the word, Mr. Lee no longer had to pretend anymore.Lindsey's sharp eyes turned vicious and the disgust in them was evidently showing. "Mr. Lee, please show some respect.""Hmph! Shameless bitch! You still dare to act high and mighty in front of me? I'll show you who has the power!" As soon he finished his words, several strong bodyguards rushed into the private room, blocking Lindsey's exit.Lindsey Juhl panicked, but she had to keep her composure and said through clenched teeth, "Mr. Lee, what are you trying to do?""Haha! With your pretty little face, if I don't enjoy our time together, wouldn't it be too much of a waste? Haha..." Mr. Lee's debauched laughter made her feel like gagging."You...you dare!" She felt the fear in her bones. If she fell in the hands of such people, she would rather die."You’ll know in a moment whether I dare to do it!"This white and tender little hand...tsk tsk...Ms. Juhl, I’m already satisfied looking a
Lindsey Juhl was a little worried about Zayn Guggenheim. There were so many of them, would he even be able to handle it?In the blink of an eye, Lindsey's worries were answered.The bodyguards were lying motionless on the floor and Zayn was standing there unmovingly with a disdainful look on his face. They were not a match for him!Lindsey was dumbfounded, and Mr. Lee, who was shocked by this scene, was even more stunned.He had carefully selected these bodyguards. How could they all get defeated in less than two moves by this man? It was over just like that?"You...just you wait!" Seeing that the situation was dire, Mr. Lee wanted to escape.How would Zayn give him this opportunity though?"You dared to touch my woman and want to get away so simply? Hmm?" Zayn turned around to block the exit and his chilly voice made people shudder.At this time, Mr. Lee regretted his actions. Had he known that he would provoke such a devil, even if he was given the guts, he would not have
It was a wild night and Lindsey Juhl did not know when she fell asleep.As she opened her dazed eyes, she heard a frigid voice from above her head said, "You’re awake?" Zayn Guggenheim was naked as he stared at her.Lindsey did not have any emotion and just asked softly, "Why?""You’re my woman. As long as I haven't divorced you, you’re not allowed to find another man!""Ha! I forgot that I still have a husband!"After Lindsey said this, she did not want to argue any longer, so she draped the bedsheets over her body, put on a robe, and walked out of the bedroom.Zayn's eyes were deep as he looked at Lindsey’s departing figure.Lindsey was glad that Grandpa was away on a trip for the past two days. Otherwise, she was afraid that Grandpa would have seen her in this mess.After tossing around all night, Lindsey felt a little hungry. When she got downstairs, she saw a graceful and beautiful woman sitting in the living room.Lindsey was simply dressed in a thin robe. Jenny Lenig
