Kurt's eyes suddenly narrowed. He tried his best to avoid the topic, but he still ended up having it pointed at him. He knew this woman was not interested in him just to find a good man for her daughter.

Sofie simply wanted to use her own daughter to tie Kurt down, making him work obediently for her. He must be cautious and prudent when dealing with a malicious woman like her, who was even willing to sacrifice her own daughter.

Sofie noticed that he did not move.

She asked, raising her eyebrows, “What's the matter, Mr. White? Do you look down on my daughter?” Kurt gave a slight nod, concealing the hostility in his eyes.

Doesn't she have any idea in her own mind of what kind of person is her daughter?

Zoey was like a vase, treated like a worthless object by Kurt as he rubbed it against the ground, which was something he truly looked down on.

Of course, he did not dare to say that, as he still needed to rely on this woman to save his life.

“Alright then, allow me to take your time.” After saying that, he walked towards the staircase. At that moment, a housekeeper rushed down from the second floor. Her face was full of anxiety.

“Ms. Carr, this is terrible. Ms. Shurmer has gone missing.” Sofie suddenly sprang up from the couch, her eyes filled with a chilling light.

“Useless! You can't even keep an eye on her. What's the point of having you here?”

After speaking, she turned to the bodyguard in a black suit beside her and ordered, “Drag her away and chop her up to feed the dogs.”

The housekeeper said in a panic, “Ms. Carr, please spare my life! Please spare my life!”

Sofie strode up the stairs, heading towards the second floor.

Kurt let out a cold laugh.

Even if I want to marry Zoey, she might not be willing to. That’s right. I'm nothing more than a fugitive traitor now, with the Yablon family issuing a warrant for my capture and execution. How would this former daughter of the Shurmer family, who was arrogant and had high standards, ever have her eyes on me? It’s good for her to go missing. Even if she didn't play the disappearing act, I would still make her back off and give up.

On a boulevard, Zoey saw a few bodyguards chasing after her and hurriedly rushed into the bushes.

“Over there, hurry up and chase!” As Zoey watched them getting farther and farther away from her, her mind suddenly filled with anxiety. Her foot slipped, and she plunged straight toward the ground.

At that moment, an arm with iron-like strength wrapped around her waist, whisking her behind a large tree in the blink of an eye. Following that, a pungent, colorless odor began to spread all around the place. Just as the bodyguards stepped into the bushes, they were driven back by the unbearable stench.

“Let's continue the chase in another place.”

“Noted.”

After several men in black left, Zoey abruptly broke free from the embrace of the man behind her. In a swift turn, she raised her arm and slapped it across his handsome face. Kurt directly grabbed her arm and said coldly, “Don't think I want to marry you. It's just that your mother is pushing too hard.”

Zoey abruptly pulled back her hand.

“That's great. Now, take me away from here. If they catch us, you'll still have to marry me.”

Kurt said, “No need for your reminder. But I'm quite curious, what do you plan to do after leaving your mother?”

Zoey pursed her lips and gritted her teeth, saying, “Artemis is already dead, and my heart is shattered too. All I want now is to tear a few pieces of flesh from Bailey's body to relieve the hatred in my heart.”

Kurt raised his eyebrows and said, “Bailey has fallen into Tucker's hands and is being held in his private winery. If you want to deal with her, you can sneak into the winery secretly.”

He knew Tucker would not kill Bailey because he wanted to turn that woman into his pet, satisfying his twisted desires.

However, Bailey killed Kurt's elder brother, and Kurt must take revenge for this deep-seated blood grudge. It would be unrealistic for him to kill Bailey personally, so he could only rely on someone else's help. He thought Zoey, who deeply hated Bailey, was a perfect fit for this role.

Zoey gritted her teeth and said with her face filled with resentment, “The place where they're holding Bailey must be heavily guarded. I'm afraid I won't even be able to enter the winery entrance if I go alone.”

Kurt hooked his lips into a smile and said calmly, “I can help you with that. As long as you don't go back to your mother for now.” Zoey's eyes lit up, and without hesitation, she immediately agreed.

“Alright, it's settled then. Arrange for me to enter the winery now. If Bailey doesn't die, my anger will not subside.” Kurt hooked his lips into a smile again.

This woman truly believed that she could escape smoothly with her own strength, but in reality, it was all manipulated by me secretly.

Kurt knew Zoey hated Bailey very much, so he had set up everything in advance.

Since he could not kill Bailey himself, he might as well get an outsider's help. His elder brother had treated him with great kindness, and no amount of profits could stop his vengeful footsteps.

At the winery, Tucker finally found satisfaction after a night of wild passion. He propped his head up with one hand, lazily lying next to “Bailey.”

Seeing her gaze blankly at the ceiling above, he could not help showing a wicked smile at the corner of his lips.

He said, “If you ask me, you should just follow me obediently from now on. I will promise you a lifetime of wealth and glory. Although I can't marry you as my legal wife, I can ensure that your life in the future is secure.”
