In Love, Never Say Never

In love, never say never chapter 1016

I frowned slightly and asked, “Why did you think of working in the Imperial Hotel?”

She lowered her head and explained, “I came here alone. All I can do was to fill up my stomach so I can live. I’ve said it before. Some children who came to the city in the past returned, but some didn’t. For those who didn’t, they were either dead or became the toys of the customers in Imperial Hotel. I wanted to live, so I had no other choice.”

I asked, “What is the name of your friend? How old is he?” How depressing… Could it be that Armond forces them to work in the Imperial Hotel?

The girl said, “He is Jody. Jody was brought to the city at fourteen, as a wealthy family wanted to adopt him. But after meeting him, they felt he was too old, so they refused to take him.”

“Does he not have relatives in the village?” I furrowed my brows in confusion. Aren’t boys precious in villages? Why is he sent here?

Ann kept her head hung low. “He was sent to the village since he was young. After he grew up, Mr. Dumphy took him back to the city. Most of the girls working in the Imperial Hotel were from the orphanage, following Mr. Dumphy and his men.”

I was puzzled. Why is the orphanage involved in this?

I looked at the girl and asked, “So you’re asking me to help you look for Jody?”

She nodded. “Jody said that there were many illegal activities in the nightclub, so he wanted to quit the job. I went to look for him, but I couldn’t find him anywhere. He must be trapped because he knew many things about Mr. Dumphy and his men. They’ll torture him. Please, Ms. Stovall. I beg you. Save him.”

The girl was putting her hands together and begging me for help, but I didn’t promise her. I glanced at Joseph bringing Dillan, who was on the verge of death into the room, and smirked. “It seems I have some work to do.”

Seeing how I didn’t give her a response, Ann tugged on the hem of my shirt and started sobbing. “Ms. Stovall, please save him. If he’s locked up by them, he’ll die. Please, save him.”

I furrowed my brows, as I was slowly getting impatient. Lifting my gaze at Ashton, I said, “Ann, have you heard of the law of conservation of mass? Saving your friend doesn’t benefit me at all, so stop wasting your time on me.”

Her eyes were reddened as she opened her mouth, wanting to say something. However, I didn’t spare her any glance and walked toward Dillan. Looking at the pathetic man in front of me, I smirked. “I had always been nice to others, and I tried to help those in need. However, I figured that not only was my kindness useless, it got me into trouble as well. I was finally pregnant, but you took my baby away from me. All these days, I had been thinking of how to torture you to vent my anger.”

Dillan looked at me with his fear-filled eyes. “Ms. Stovall, I didn’t know you’re pregnant. I didn’t know you’re Mr. Fuller’s wife. I’m sorry. Please let me go.”

“Haha!” I laughed out loud and raised a brow at him. “Let you go?”

People mustn’t be too kind. I learned this after going through all sorts of ups and downs. I looked at him and grinned widely. “Dillan, do you know how it feels to lose the most important thing in your life?”

He shook his head and kept on begging me for mercy. I rolled my eyes as I was reluctant to hear the man’s ongoing pleads.

Suddenly, I received a message from Boris. After replying to the message, I turned to Dillan. He was nowhere pitiful in my eyes, as he had to pay for his sins.

About five minutes later, Boris brought a woman into the room. There was a slight bulge in the woman’s belly, so I figured she was five or six months pregnant.

When the man saw the woman, he struggled and yelled, “Why are you here? Go back home!”

The woman was startled by his loud yells. Scanning her surroundings, she looked at Dillan in fear and was at a loss. “Dear, what’s wrong? What happened? Why are you…”

Suddenly, Dillan glared at me with anger and wore a serious expression. “What are you thinking of doing?”

I felt exhausted to explain everything to him, so I sat on the chair and looked at him coldly. “Your wife should experience what I went through. Besides, I’ll give you the chance to experience the pain of losing your unborn child, which you waited expectantly. What do you think?”

The man widened his eyes at me and growled, “No! You guys can’t do this. This is illegal. You can’t do this.”

In love, never say never chapter 1017

I felt like laughing. “You did many illegal things too.” As I spoke my words, I glanced at Boris. “Boris, there’s a pool at the rear house. Take this woman there and throw her into the pool.”

Dillan started flailing around madly, but he couldn’t do anything as he was pinned onto the ground by Joesph and the others. With his face touching the ground, he could only let out muffled screams in protest.

Boris took the woman to the rear house while the latter was crying and pleading for help from Dillan. Seeing how tears were flowing down Dillan’s cheeks as he felt powerless, I didn’t know why, but I felt amused as I smirked.

“Scarlett, do you really have to take it this far?” Ashton’s voice sounded from behind. His voice was low as usual with a tinge of surprise.

I didn’t want to explain, so I gave a brief reply. “He deserves this.”

The sound of water splashing and ear-piercing screams of the woman came from the rear house. Upon hearing this, Dillan’s eyes reddened with anger. “What do you guys want? Come at me and leave her alone!”

I felt amused as I looked at him. “Then what’s up with you laying your hands on those defenseless girls? You were merciless to those girls you drowned in the water tank. Dillan, it’s only been a few days, but it seems you’ve forgotten. Let me remind you. Your aquarium was dyed red with my blood. It’s only fair that your wife’s going to do the same to my swimming pool.”

The man stopped struggling as he collapsed on the ground and broke down in tears. Everyone had a weakness. No one was strong enough to care for only themselves.

He crawled in front of me and begged, “I was wrong. Come at me with whatever you want to do. Please don’t hurt my wife. She did nothing wrong. I beg of you, Ms. Stovall. Let my wife and the baby go. They knew nothing. I’ll accept everything you do to me. Just spare them.”

I pursed my lips and remained unbothered. Ashton glanced at Joseph. It was obvious that he was trying to hint at the latter to save the woman. However, I insisted, “Ashton, leave if you can’t agree with my doings, but you can’t stop me.”

He looked at me with a cold, yet helpless expression. “Scarlett, the pregnant woman is innocent and you know that well. I understand that your hatred and I won’t hinder you from doing whatever you want to him. However, I can’t sit by and just let you become someone evil like him. Stop now. The pregnant woman did nothing wrong.”

I pursed my lips and took in a deep breath. Looking at Dillan with determination, I announced, “Not only do I want your child’s life, I’m going to take your wife’s too. Everything that I have suffered, I’ll make sure you go through them too.”
