Chapter 637
"Liya, are you really concerned about Hansen?" Jenna approached her and asked seriously.
"Of course." Liya waved her hand and answered in a stern voice, "Hansen is my husband. How can
I not care about him?"
This is from N?velDrama.Org.
"I see." Jenna suddenly smiled and added, "Liya, let me ask you. If Hansen is imprisoned and the
Richards Group is taken over, Hansen is likely to be worth nothing. Do you still want to marry him?"
As Jenna spoke, she squinted her eyes and sized Liya up.
Liya looked around and smiled. "Jenna, I love Hansen. No matter what happens to him, I''ll be willing
to marry him."
"Liar." Sabrina looked at the fake smile on her face and sneered. "If something really happens, then
I''m afraid you''ll be the first to run away."
Jenna smiled. "Liya, what you said is really beautiful. You have to remember it well. Don''t be afraid
of pain and danger at that time."
Jenna''s words sounded like a warning, and Liya was nervous. She didn''t have the mood to stay any
longer. Liya chuckled. "Of course, Jenna. If anything happens to Hansen, then please let me know.
I''ll definitely be the first to fight back. I won''t disturb you any longer. I''ll leave first."
As she spoke, she quickly walked out.
As soon as Liya returned to her guest room, she closed the door, dragged a tinum ne out
of her pocket, and looked at it under the light. She was so happy.
Surely enough, there were still some treasures in Jenna''s bag. Fortunately, she flipped through the
bag. As she thought about this, a proud smile appeared on her face.
Jenna''s eyebrows knitted together as she watched Liya hurriedly leaving. A cold smile hung from
the corner of her mouth.
"Jenna, this woman is too arrogant. She actually barged into our room. It''s too disgraceful." Sabrina
stared at her distant back and uttered with indignation.
"Don''t bother about her. Let her enjoy herself for a few days first," Jenna responded lightly. Her eyes
caught sight of her handbag, and she went forward to have a look and coldly snorted after
rummaging through it.
"Jenna, did she steal your things?" Sabrina also noticed the strangeness and asked hurriedly.
"It''s alright. I just lost a ne." Jenna pulled the zipper of her handbag with a faint look.
"She''s so hateful. I''ll get it back for you. This is theft. You can use this to drive her out." Sabrina
couldn''t bear her anger and was about to rush out.
"There''s no need for that, Sabrina." Jenna stopped her. "Let her gloat for a few days first. These
things are worthless, and I don''t like them anyway."
Sabrina saw that Jenna was against it. So, she could only shake her head and give up.
In the Yates family residence, Zoe was lying on the bed, and her eyes were a bit lifeless. Her face
was deathly pale, and her consciousness was in a daze. Her rosy lips had also turned gray and
white.
In the past few days, she had been having nightmares, dreaming that Yaris was calling out to her in
her dreams, and his tone was affectionate.
Zoe didn''t have the courage to see him. So, she kept avoiding him and covered her ears.
Nheless, Yaris''s voice was like a curse engulfing her, constantly ringing in her eardrums,
making it impossible for her to breathe.
She had nightmares all day, and could neither eat nor sleep. She quickly became thinner. Her
initially morous face also became haggard.
In fact, these days, she also began to wonder why she did all these. Was it meaningful? Was it
worth
it?
If Zoe thought too much, then she would have a headache.
Due to her actions, she lost too many things... Her loved ones, her career, her chastity, her love...
She actually had nothing left, and she couldn''t turn back.
If Zoe wanted to leave, then she would at least have to see that they ended up with nothing like
her. At the very least, they would have to lose some of their most precious things. Only when she
saw their pain would she be satisfied.
Since defeat was a foregone conclusion, Zoe was not willing to retreat like this.
Zoe needed to find a way out.
She would first get the Ocean Heart. Then, she would go abroad, and nevere back. This was
her only way out.
Hence, before Zoe left, she had to make them lose everything, little by little, and suffer from the
pain. Only in this way could she be satisfied.
The door opened, and Octavia came in with soup.
"Miss Yates, drink it while it''s still hot," Octavia whispered.
"Thank you." Zoe soon finished it.
"Octavia, where did you gost night?" As Octavia was about to pack up the remaining bowls and
leave, Zoe suddenly asked.
Octavia was shocked and her hands trembled, and she almost dropped the soup bowl to the
ground.
"I didn''t go anywhere. I went to see my Mom''s friend yesterday." Octavia turned around and smiled,
answering casually.
"Oh." Zoe nodded carelessly. "Octavia, if there is any difficulty in your family, then you must tell
me.
"Okay, thank you, Zoe." Octavia''s face turned pale. The night before, Jenna''s words came to her
mind. Her heart trembled and she immediately smiled.
"I''m very grateful that you obeyed me. As long as you have any difficulties, I will help you." Zoe
assured her seriously.
Octavia stood for a while and suddenly turned around and requested earnestly, "Miss Yates, my
mother is suddenly in poor health these days. She''s vomiting and having diarrhea, and my brother
is also weak all over. I want them to leave A City for Sovento. Can you help me?"
She turned around with hope in her eyes. If Zoe could promise her, then it meant that she was not
using her mother and brother to threaten her, and she was really helping their family. As such,
Jenna''s words might not be reliable. Octavia was just probing.
Octavia''s family was poor. At that time, Zoe mentioned that she could provide a good
arrangement for her family. So, she took her mother and brother from the countryside, arranged for
them to study in A City, and rented them the best house.
Therefore, Octavia had been following Zoe wholeheartedly. She never thought that Zoe would
have brought her mother and brother over to threaten and control her. Even if she had doubts, she
had pushed them away. She didn''t even believe that Zoe would poison her mother and brother.
She was grateful and remained by her side with her entire heart. Even if she knew that it was a
crime, she was willing to do it for her.
Nheless, Jenna''s words made her tremble with fear. The night before, she had been thinking
about her rtionship with Zoe all these years. She had always felt assured that Zoe would
leave everything for her to handle. She would not hide anything from her.
Therefore, she became her right- hand person. Octavia also knew many ins and outs about Zoe,
including the framing of the Richards
Group.
She had never thought that there would be anything bad about it.
However, the day before...
She closed her eyes.
"Octavia, are your mother''s and brother''s illnesses very serious?" Zoe was a little surprised and
asked with great concern.
"Yes, Miss Yates, my mother and brother suddenly got sick, and I want to send them to S City for
treatment. Miss Yates, please, can you help me?" Octavia pleaded with tears in her eyes.
If Zoe could promise her right now that she would send her mother and brother to Sovento, cure
their illness, and let them go, then she would still choose to work for her genuinely and help her
execute all her ns.
"Octavia, since they are ill, they should hurry up and invite a doctor to treat them. As for the matter
of going to Sovento, it''s not time yet. Of course, the study environment in Sovento is excellent and
is suitable for your brother. However, it is not so simple. Well, I promise to help you, but there is no
hurry this time. At the very least, we have to wait a little longer. I have a lot of important things to do
now, and you know that. I will invite expert doctors to treat your mother and brother tomorrow,"
Zoe replied after thinking for a while, and her expression was very solemn.
Octavia''s heart went cold.
Zoe was trying to evade her request.
The day before, when Octavia came home, she really found that there was something wrong with
her mother and brother. If what Jenna mentioned was true, then the poison in their bodies had
reached the critical stage. They couldn''t wait any longer and must be treated immediately. However,
Zoe''s words clearly showed that she was dragging her feet. As for the expert doctor whom Zoe
offered, could he really cure them if they were poisoned by her?
Thinking of this, Octavia felt chills all over.
She was ready to take her mother and brother to the hospital for examination as soon as she went
home. Octavia had already made an appointment with the expert, and she did not dare to have high
expectations of the expert Zoe invited.
In fact, Octavia had long wished to send her mother and brother to Sovento. None of these things
that she did with Zoe were good things. Sooner orter, their crimes would be exposed. Although
she was an aplice, many things had long been unclear. If it went on like this, then the
consequences would be unimaginable. She was not afraid of anything but she worried about her
mother and brother.
Therefore, Octavia had made this request a long time ago. She was willing to risk her life for Zoe,
and all she wanted was the safety of her brother and mother. However, Zoe always used all kinds
of excuses.
Zoe''s prevarication turned her heartpletely cold. In fact, on several asions when she
came home in the middle of the night, she found that there seemed to be someone following her.
She didn''t care before, but after Jenna''s words, she seemed to understand something!
Octavia knew too many secrets. Zoe was suspicious and would not let go of her.
"Miss Yates, I beg you, I will obey you and do anything. But my brother and mother are sick now,
and it is not suitable for them to stay in A City. All my efforts are for my brother, and the educational
resources of Sovento are good. I want to transfer them to S City. Can you promise me now? You
don''t need to worry about these things, and I will do it by myself." Octavia''s eyes were full of tears.
With a glimmer of hope, she turned to look at Zoe again and begged her.
Zoe just nced at her lightly. "Don''t worry. I promise I will help you. Besides, it''s not easy to go
to Sovento. Let''s first cure your mother''s and
brother''s illnesses."
As Zoe answered, she looked at Octavia with cold eyes and added, "Octavia, you repeatedly
begged me for this. Are you worried about me?"
"No, it''s not like that." Octavia shook her head in despair. "I know what we do is dangerous. Hence, I
don''t want to bring trouble to my family."
"Of course, if possible, no one wants to implicate their family. You know my character. If I can help
you, then I will help you without you telling me. The timing is not right, and it''s useless for you to beg
me. You should know what I can do. Stay by my side first, and then I won''t treat you shabbily."
Zoe''s voice was a bit unfriendly and also impatient.
Octavia''s eyes were covered with disappointment and despair, but she did not dare to show it.
Up to now, all of this proved her conjecture.
Jenna was right. Zoe was worried about her and would not let her mother and brother go. What
should she do?
