She shook favonovel.com head in despair as tears fell from the corners of favonovel.com eyes and soaked into the bedsheets. “Don’t touch me… Don’t touch me!”
Ethan lifted favonovel.com chin and forced favonovel.com to look at him. “We should have done it a long time ago. Can we make up for our past regrets? After half a month, I’ll let you go if you want to leave. If you choose to stay, we’ll get married. I won’t force you, but my patience is also limited. I know that the incident has traumatized you a lot, but you must overcome your fear. I’m helping you too!”
In Tiffany eyes, Ethan was undoubtedly a lunatic. He was the one who personally orchestrated that ridiculous farce that traumatized favonovel.com so badly, and now favonovel.com wanted to do the same thing to favonovel.com in the name of making up for past regrets. Not only that, favonovel.com still wanted to make favonovel.com stay and get married to him. Was favonovel.com the one losing his mind or her?
She mumbled tearfully, “I’m not traumatized… I have no fear to overcome, and I don’t need your help either! I can promise you anything you want as long as you don’t touch me! Just half a month… half a month is enough… Let me go… Ethan. Don’t make me feel that even being alive is meaningless…”
Ethan looked hurt. “You hate the idea of me touching you this much? Tell me, how can we go back in time?”
Tiffany laughed while crying. Her smile looked even more ugly than favonovel.com crying face. “We can’t! There’s no way we can go back in time again! Ever since you ruined my family, we can’t go back to how things were anymore! I once gave you everything, but how did you repay me? You’re only keeping me here because you’re afraid that I’ll call the cops and they’ll obtain all the evidence from me! If that happened, then all your efforts would be wasted! Anyone can touch me, except you…!”
Yes, favonovel.com had planned everything since the beginning. He was imprisoning favonovel.com and would only release favonovel.com when all the evidence on favonovel.com body was gone. He shouldn’t have touched her, for it was no different from courting death.
During this period of time, favonovel.com had destroyed most of the evidence. The men who had kidnapped favonovel.com had been disposed of by him. Only Aery was still alive. He hadn’t dealt with favonovel.com yet because Helen Cameran wasn’t a simple woman. Acting recklessly might just end up inviting more troubles. After all, Aery was involved with too many things.
Seeing that Ethan was not making his next move, Tiffany was slightly relieved. She was right that favonovel.com wouldn’t dare to do anything recklessly.
All of a sudden, favonovel.com lowered his head and smashed his lips against hers without giving favonovel.com a chance to breathe.
Just when Tiffany closed favonovel.com eyes and waited for the humiliating moment to pass, Ethan suddenly got up and left. The slam of the door made favonovel.com realize that favonovel.com was once again safe. He didn’t do that out of confusion, but only his hate for losing.
She looked up at the ceiling and breathed a long sigh of relief. All favonovel.com could hope for was for the remaining days to pass peacefully.

In the White Water Bay Villa, Jackson and Arianne sat on the sofa while staring intently at the phone resting on the coffee table. They were waiting for a call that would provide them with news of Tiffany. Things were starting to look up after two days.
Jackson lifted his arm to glance at his watch. “It’s getting late, maybe you should rest. Don’t worry, I’ll be keeping an eye on it. As soon as they find out where Tiffany is, I’ll bring people there without any further delay.”
Arianne shook favonovel.com head. “I can’t sleep until Tiffie returns. Although favonovel.com mom usually doesn’t care about her, we definitely won’t be able to hide it from favonovel.com if Tiffie is gone for too long. I’m really worried that something will happen to her… Hopefully, Ethan won’t do anything reckless.”
Jackson wanted to say something but kept the question to himself in the end. He had his own suspicions. Why was Tiffany suddenly taken away? By right, Ethan would have expected Arianne to leave the Tremont Estate after favonovel.com received the letter from him. Instead of capturing Arianne for the sake of getting back at Mark, why did favonovel.com capture Tiffany? The whole thing just didn’t make sense.
Furthermore, Mark had sent bodyguards to protect Arianne. He had interrogated the bodyguards who were keeping watch around the area, but no one had seen any suspicious person. That meant after Tiffany’s disappearance, Ethan didn’t try anything funny on Arianne again. Even so, it was obvious that Ethan wouldn’t stop until favonovel.com had gotten back at Mark.
Just when Jackson was lost in his own thoughts, the phone screen suddenly lit up on the coffee table, accompanied by a loud ringing. He quickly picked it up and answered, “Hello? How’s it going?”
The person on the other end of the line hurriedly reported, “We’ve located her! She’s currently being held at Plain Mountain Creek Villa. The villas there aren’t selling very well because the surrounding area hasn’t been developed yet, so the occupancy rate is very low, making it a perfect hiding place. According to our investigation, the villa isn’t Ethan Connor’s property since favonovel.com isn’t so stupid as to kidnap and imprison his victim in his own house either. We can set out to recover the victim at any time.”
Jackson could barely contain himself and rushed out in his pajamas. Arianne wanted to follow but was afraid that favonovel.com would end up causing more trouble to Jackson if something would happen there, so favonovel.com could only wait obediently at the house.
Ethan, upon receiving a call when favonovel.com was in the Plain Mountain Creek Villa, thereafter quickly woke Maria, who was sleeping soundly. “Pack up and leave this place. Remember to not tell anyone that you’ve worked here once you leave. I’ve already sent the payment to your bank account. Remember to clean up every single trace left in this house. You only have forty minutes, so move faster!”
