Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Hannah! Max wouldn’t do anything to you. Weren’t you the one who caused Shannon to miscarry too? Just say that you did it all for me. As long as you help me get past this obstacle, you can count on me for your brother’s illness. I’ll definitely find a suitable kidney for him.” Janice tempted Hannah with generous conditions.

The reason why Hannah was willing to be Janice’s friend was that she could take advantage of the latter. However, she didn’t expect that Janice would abandon her so soon.

“Hannah, you can choose to reject me, but that means that I’ll never give you anything else. With your job, it’s impossible for your family to live comfortably, and for your brother to recover.” Janice sat on the sofa, her expression so cold that it scared Hannah.

She had never seen Janice like this before.

Hannah fell onto the ground. She thought about it for some time, and she didn’t dare to reject Janice’s suggestion. If she rejected her, her family wouldn’t be able to survive.

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely keep my promise and take good care of your family.” Janice grabbed Hannah’s hand, and the smile on her face made Hannah’s hair stand on end.

Hannah nodded. She had no other choice now.

“Don’t go and look for Max directly. If you do that, it’ll arouse his suspicion. Wait till he finds you, then you can slowly admit it.” Janice had carefully arranged everything, ensuring that the matter would proceed flawlessly.

With Janice’s plan and interference, Max’s men quickly discovered Hannah.

“Bring her to me.” Max’s eagle eyes were filled with a trace of anger.

Anyone who dared to touch his woman, regardless of who they were, was simply courting death.

“Wait, call Janice over too.” Max stopped Jake just as the latter turned to leave.

The two of them soon appeared in Max’s office.

“Janice, I don’t know anything. I really didn’t do anything. I don’t know why President Wenley brought me here. I…” Hannah acted according to Janice’s instructions.

“You wanted to poison Shannon to death. This is the evidence. Do you still dare to say that you didn’t do anything?” Jake placed the investigation report in front of Hannah.

Janice feigned ignorance, and frowned tightly.

She then stepped forward, picked up the document and started flipping through it.

“Hannah, this… What did you do? What’s going on?” Janice asked intentionally, pretending as though she was really clueless in front of Max.

Max sat on the sofa and looked coldly at the two people in front of him. Hannah was shaking, while Janice looked like she really didn’t know anything.

“I did it. I just wanted you to get together with Janice sooner. Janice doesn’t know anything. President Wenley, if there’s anyone to blame, it’s me.” Hannah suddenly fell to the ground.

She was trembling all over, and was so afraid that she looked like she had lost her mind.

“Jake, sell her off to Africa.” Since the evidence showed that the matter had nothing to do with Janice, then Hannah shouldn’t be allowed stay by Janice’s side.

This statement stunned Janice and Hannah. Initially, Janice thought that Max would just throw a fit, and wouldn’t do anything overboard on her account. However, she didn’t expect that Max would go to this extent for Shannon.

If he knew that she was the one behind this, would she be the one sold to Africa?

“Janice, save me! I can’t go to Africa! I can’t!” Hannah hugged Janice’s leg. Fear was written all over her face.

Janice held Hannah’s hand, and she looked extremely nervous. Right now, her position was unstable, so she couldn’t get into trouble.

“Hannah, just go first. I will take good care of your family. Don’t worry, I will bring you back once the matter has died down,” Janice leaned closer to Hannah and comforted her softly.

Max’s men immediately pulled Hannah away, then sent her off.

“Max, since you’ve been so busy, you probably haven’t had lunch yet, right? It’s almost dinnertime, shall we have a meal together? There’s a new French restaurant nearby that tastes pretty good.” Janice was thrown off by the sudden turn of events that she didn’t know what else to do, so she simply raised the suggestion to Max.

Max turned his gaze on the beautiful woman beside him, a faint darkness appearing in his eyes. He had just sold her friend away, yet she was in the mood to eat.

“Are you still busy? If that’s the case, I’ll go home first.” When Janice saw how dark Max’s face was, all she wanted to do was to leave this place as soon as possible.

Max stared coldly at the woman before him. She was definitely not the Janice that he once knew!

Janice was frightened by his gaze, but in that moment, she could only stand there helplessly.

“I’ll drive you.” He got up and left the office with her.

The two of them got into his car, but there was a terrifying silence throughout the journey.

His chilly aura stopped her from approaching him, and she shifted her body into a corner.

Suddenly, she felt something pressing into her waist, hurting her. Instinctively, she pulled that bag out, and Shannon’s belongings fell by her feet.

“This is…” Janice looked at the item on the ground in confusion. Why would he have such a childish thing?

“I don’t like others touching my things. Are you even worthy of touching them?” The bag in Janice’s hand was snatched away by Max, and he also picked up the item on the ground.

His cold voice made her stiffen. They must be Shannon’s belongings.

The two of them didn’t speak anymore. She sat beside Max in a daze, feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles for the first time.

“Max, do you blame me? I…”

“We’re home. Have a good rest.” The car suddenly stopped, but Max didn’t leave the car, even though he repeated the same thing that he had said to Janice countless times.

Janice got out of the car tactfully and stood there watching Max’s car gradually disappear before her eyes. What was wrong with him?

She was now certain that Max was in love with Shannon.

She definitely couldn’t let Shannon live, or the latter would be endless trouble for her in the future.

“Use whatever means you have to, find Shannon’s address in New York, then get rid of her! I want her gone, no matter what it takes!” Janice called her men immediately as soon as she got home.

Although it was extremely difficult to get rid of a person in New York, she had to do it, no matter the price she had to pay.

She suddenly felt that if Shannon continued living, Max would probably never marry her.

Shannon, who was in New York, had absolutely no idea about Janice’s plan. She was simply focused on finding a school.

She thought that since she had already left the city, Janice would definitely let her off.

After a few peaceful days, Shannon started to get used to life in New York.

Half a month later, Shannon finally found a suitable school for herself. Having graduated three years ago, she once again stepped into school again.

The busy life in school made Shannon forget some of her worries temporarily, and she put all her heart and soul into learning.

She packed her days full, going to the library and gym on top of school. She didn’t give herself any time to wallow in her sorrows..
