After returning to Serene Manor, Zoey spent the afternoon. drawing sketches in her bedroom. After checking them and making sure there were no issues, she sent them to Leanna’s email.
She stretched and looked at the time displayed on her phone, it was already 5 o’clock in the afternoon.
Several news articles suddenly popped up on the screen.

Zoey looked at Moriah’s beaten face and sighed softly, “So much for her nose job… doesn’t even look like her anymore.”
A line popped in.
Russell: Did you like the gift I gave you?
Zoey replied immediately, “I really like it. When are you coming back?”
Russell: “I will come back later from the gathering with friends tonight. I will take you with me next time. Go to bed early tonight, you don’t have to wait for me.”

Chapter 15 Russell Shows a Love
Zoey wanted to say that she would wait for him to come home at night, but then she realized that if she said that, Russell wouldn’t be able to enjoy his gathering with friends.
So she deleted that sentence and changed it to: “Okay.”
At that moment, there was a knock at the door.
Emilee, “Mrs. Maddox, dinner is ready.””
Zoey replied, “Got it, I’ll go down now.”
She glanced at the bruised and swollen face on the screen, exited the news page, so as not to affect her appetite even with another glance.
She got up and went to the restaurant downstairs.
Meanwhile, Moriah lay bruised and battered on a plastic surgery hospital bed, talking tearfully on her phone.
“Ariana, I got exposed, it must have been Zoey’s doing! Otherwise, right after I had an argument with her, I got. ambushed and brutally beaten up by Rylee’s fat witch.”
Ariana nodded, “Indeed, Zoey has always been ruthless and cunning.”
“Ariana, did that old man say Zoey is Mrs. Maddox? Does that mean she got married to Russell?”
Ariana’s eyes flickered, and she naturally couldn’t admit that. Zoey and Russell had already gotten married.
She asked back, “Do you think Russell is such an impulsive person? Who knows who that old man was?”

“Were you saying that he was lying?”
“Of course, it’s all just a bluff,” Ariana said with a malicious gleam in her eyes. “Moriah, you’re probably just scared by Zoey. Her phone call was definitely just using Russell’s influence. Think about it, which respectable man would want a woman to use his status to oppress others over trivial matters? Moriah, even though they claim to be engaged, they haven’t even had a ceremony. Who knows, one day Russell might not even acknowledge her! They have no emotional foundation whatsoever, Russell doesn’t even know what kind of person she is. We just need to expose her true colors, and Russell will kick her out. After all these years, Zoey is just an ungrateful wolf in sheep’s clothing. On the other hand, you and I are like sisters in spirit!”
Moriah was filled with emotion, “But how can we make Russell know Zoey’s true face?”
Ariana revealed a sinister smile, “This weekend was Marlene’s birthday banquet, and by then you would be…”
Nightfall Club.
When Russell was pushed into the private box, Braeden Hensley and Toby Suarez had already arrived.
After nodding slightly at the two people, Troy left the private room and stood at the door, guarding it.
Russell stood up and walked gracefully to the sofa, then sat, down.
He leaned back in the sofa, with his black hair slightly–falling on his forehead, his face with deep and extraordinary contours

looked stunning in the dim light.
Braeden poured a glass of red wine and handed it to him.
Russell took it and gently shook it.
Braeden asked, “You must have known that your fiancée had returned to the country for Nelson, didn’t you?”
Russell’s dark eyes fixed on the red liquid in the cup as he spoke. softly, “So I made her mine.”
Braeden was drinking alcohol and almost spit it out. He coughed violently a few times and said, “Russell, are you saying that you slept with her?”
Toby chimed in, “Silly, they must have gotten married.”
Braeden looked over, a pair of peach blossom eyes waiting for Russell’s response.
Russell remembered the scene in the car before he and Zoey got married, where Zoey stamped him. His lips unconsciously curled up.
Braeden’s mouth twitched, “No, Russell, did she put a curse on you? You’re even laughing? You’re not looking for that little girl anymore?”
Russell glanced at him and said, “I have found her.”
Just when Braeden was still confused, Toby woke him up with a single sentence, “Obviously, it was Zoey.”
Braeden: What!!

This damn fatè!
No!
Destiny really is wild… or more like a plan years in the making!
Braeden asked, “Has your leg thing been revealed yet?”
Russell caressed the cup’s wall, “No.”
“Then, wouldn’t Zoey think that you couldn’t do it?”
Russell glanced coldly at Braeden, who immediately fell silent.
Toby teased, “A perfectly fine man, shame that he got a mouth.”
Russell curled his lips and then tasted the red wine, “Is this wine from Arellano Chateau?”
Braeden raised his thumb and said, “I heard that the woman behind Arellano Chateau is the owner, but she doesn’t like to take care of things. The business of the winery is all managed by her capable subordinate, Kenya Carter. Russell, the Maddox Group wants to build a winery, so they can definitely learn from Arellano Chateau. With your charm, you can definitely lure out the owner behind the scenes.”
Russell laughed and said, “I was married, so sending you away would be just right.”
Braeden: “…”
Toby said seriously, “Russell, I heard that a force has entered Woodmerrow and is inquiring about you. You should be careful when you go out.”

Russell’s eyes darkened slightly, knew.”
At half past eight in the evening, Troy entered the private room on time.
Russell sat back in his wheelchair and said, “Goodbye.” .
Braeden, Toby, “See you at the birthday banquet.”
Troy pushed Russell out of the club, and at that moment, a drizzle started falling from the sky.
Troy did not go to the car to get an umbrella, but instead asked the waiter at the door to find one.
The black umbrella opened, and Troy pushed Russell to the side of the car, opened the back door, and put him inside.
Troy folded up his umbrella, got into the car, and drove off.
In the dark, a man wearing a duckbill cap held a phone. “They are too clever, I couldn’t get close to Russell, I couldn’t test if he was really disabled.”
“Better to kill a hundred by mistake than to let one go.”
The man wearing a duckbill cap glared menacingly, “I got it.”
The black Maybach drove on the way to Serene Manor.
Troy glanced in the rearview mirror and said, “Mr. Russell, we have four cars behind us.”
Russell nodded and said, “Let’s go to the top of the mountain.”
Troy nodded, “Understood.”

He turned the steering wheel towards the direction of Hillside Road.
Because the car was modified, it was very fast.
The car behind went from initially concealing to later recklessly chasing.
The car drove onto Hillside Road, but the four cars behind did not dare to drive too fast.
The driver’s assistant frowned and said, “Why do I feel like that car deliberately led us up the mountain?”
The man in the duckbill cap sneered, “Rainy weather, they just Want us to have car accidents and casualties on Hillside Road.
How naive! Tonight is their death sentence!”
The underling asked, “Is that Russell really the person they were looking for?”
The man with the duckbill cap glared at him and said, “Whether it is or not, he must die tonight!”
