Need You Now

Chapter 3 If You Want To Risk Your Life Again, You Are Free To Leave

Hearst had brought Heidy to his large, luxurious villa.

Feeling the soft wind, Heidy stood at the balcony as she looked up at the blue sky. Her hand tightly gripped the railing, her eyes full of anger.

For nearly two days, Heidy was in a coma. Jack Xu told everybody that she fell down the stairs and that she might never wake up. He obviously did not expect that Heidy would be able to fight the drug given to her. If he had succeeded with his ploy, the Hua Group would fall into Jack's hands.

Memories of his sweet words and their marriage flooded Heidy's thoughts. 'How could I have been so stupid? To let that bastard fool me for two whole years! Not to mention that bitch of a sister!' Sherry Hua was not related to Heidy by blood. She had been adopted from an orphanage. Still, Heidy treated her as if she was truly her sister.

Whatever Heidy's father bought for her, she would share it generously with Sherry. When people spoke ill of Sherry, Heidy was always there to stand up for her sister and protect her. All those years, they were like the best of friends. Heidy loved Sherry very much, and opened her whole heart to her. This was why it was such a terrible shock to Heidy that Sherry turned out to be such a snake. 'That ungrateful whore!' Heidy sneered in her heart.

It was her father's funeral, but she couldn't go back home. Tears fell down on her cheek, one after the other. "Dad, I give you my word -- I won't let those people snatch the company you've built with your own sweat and blood!" said Heidy, gritting her teeth.

Just then, she heard footsteps approaching her from behind. She turned around, and saw Hearst Tan walking towards her. "Mr. Tan, why did you save me?" Heidy asked flatly. It was easy to judge from the looks of the villa and its location that he was a rich man. The only thing was that she had never heard Hearst Tan's name before.
