"Opportunity?" Odie let out a derisive laugh, "What kind of crap opportunity is this?" They were treating him like a plaything, taking whatever they wanted from the Minton estate and dumping all the blon his shoulders! He was determined to settle the score with whoever was behind this mess.
"Jonah, get ready. We're heading to Devonport." "Devonport?" Jonah asked.
A fierce look flashed in Odie's eyes, "To find that snake hiding in the grass and settle accounts!" Late at night, inside the Burke residence in Devonport, James pushed open the door to his home. He hadn't been back for several days, and the place was covered in dust.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs James turned on the light downstairs, a foul smell wafted down from upstairs. Covering his nose and mouth, he slowly made his way upstairs.
The moment he opened the door to the main bedroom, a swamp-like stench hit him, and a look of disgust flickered in his eyes.
The woman lying on the bed was already withered, her hair dry and yellow, her body as thin as a skeleton wrapped in skin, her eyes deeply sunken, her lips cracked like parched earth, and her body emitted a foul odor.
"Save... me..." Nichole's voice was hoarse and grating, each word draining all her strength.
"Still alive?" James sneered. It seemed Nichole's will to live had been strong these past few days. Before leaving, he'd only left her a bowl of oatmeal and half a glass of water. Somehow, she'd managed to survive on that.
It looked like she might have even resorted to eating her own waste; otherwise, she wouldn't be in this condition. "Why... why..." Nichole's thoughts were muddled. During her days here, she had strange dreams every night.
In her dreams, James was affectionate towards her. She was the shining star of Burke International after returning from studying abroad. Even though she wasn't Mrs. Burke, she was at James's side at every social event.
In those dreams, Sophie was always the one losing to her! Countless people adored Nichole, and she was the general manager of Burke International, James's partner. She even had the power to take Sophie's life, letting Sophie and her unborn child die in the operating room! Even Bea's attitude towards her changed, hinting that Nichole could becthe new Mrs. Burke of Burke International.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut when she woke up, everything was different. Nichole refused to believe that it was all just a dream! James looked at her coldly, as if she were already dead. "You're of no use anymore. I'll send you on your way." "No... don't..." Nichole's eyes widened. She didn't want to die! She still wanted to live, but James had already pulled out a gun and pulled the trigger.
The bullet pierced Nichole's
forehead, and she froze, memories of her past life flashing through her m mind like a passing parade before her death. She was supposed to be Mrs.
Burke! She was supposed to be the final winner!
But soon, the fate of her past life followed suit. James had stripped her of everything and ultimately stabbed her seventeen times in a fit of rage, leading to her tragic death.
Outside the Burke residence, James poured gasoline around the house that he and Sophie bad once called their new home. From inside the house to the outside, from the garden to the front yard, he left no part untouched. James lit a cigarette outside the main gate and tossed the lighter onto the grass. Instantly, flames spread, engulfing the entire Burke residence in fire.
