Chapter 172
When Vincent thought that Stephanie had three brothers and one sister, the Jimenez family would not easily give Stephane to him.
But if Stephanie could have a good life and not go through so many hardships, he would be willing to do it even if he and Stephanie would not be so close.
Perhaps they would not have so much contact, but he believed that they would fall in love at first sight. He still had a deep love for her.
Matthew prepared a guest room for him. Looking at the large room and lonely bed, Vincent felt empty in his heart.
He found that every second without Stephanie, he was incomparably yearning for her,
Standing in front of the floor–to–ceiling window, he looked at the silent moonlight. Gradually, his eyes became more and more deep and fierce
He took out his phone and called Zane. “Have
you sent her there?”
Zane looked at Nancy who was left in Snake Forest. The snakes with their teeth pulled out wrapped around her body, and she let out a shrill scream
“Yes, replied Zane.
Don’t let her commit suicide, but don’t make it easy for her. Use the dagger punishment.”
The dagger punishment was a particularly gruesome punishment in which the body was scarred with a dagger, coated with honey, and covered with ants
Zane knew that Vincent was really angry, so he responded.
After hanging up the phone, Zane stared at Nancy not far away
“Zane, I’ve made so many contributions to Storm. Even if I don’t get any credit, I’ve still put in the effort! You can’t do this to me. Please help me out, okay?”
Zane looked indifferent. “Your father betrayed the organization, and I didn’t expect you to plot against Mr. Fletcher.”
“I love him! Is it wrong to love someone?” said Nancy.
Zane ordered people to tear off the snake on Nancy and tie her to a shelf.
He took out the dagger and wiped it with a white handkerchief. “It’s not wrong to love someone, but love is not equal to getting it. It will be better if you don’t disturb him. Your love is very selfish. Do you think Mr. Fletcher will love you after you sleep with him? Don’t you see who you are? You love Mr. Fletcher, but you insist on him loving you!”
He gestured with a dagger on Nancy’s body, which was already full of whip marks. “You have great ambitions, so the organization can’t accommodate you at all. The members of the organization all waited to get rid of you, but it was Mr. Fletcher who saved you. He gave you a stable job and did not expose your father’s ugly behavior. Yet, you are not only ungrateful but also delusional to get what does not belong to you. You destroyed the lives of others. You deserve to die!”
Then he made a long cut on Nancy’s face, and there were more marks on the staggered whip marks, which looked extremely ugly.
Nancy roared in pain, Zane, you are Vincent’s lackey!
Zane chuckled, then gagged her with a piece of rag. Nancy shook her head in protest.
E
Zane dug out a spoon of honey with one hand and shackled her chin with the other, applying it evenly to her face.
“Blame yourself for being greedy“” Zane said in a low voice. “If it wasn’t for the fact that you can’t now, I would have cut you into pieces!”
He looked at his subordinates and said, “Do it three times a day respectively. Don’t kill her. Have a blood transfusion or rescue when needed. Do you understand
Yes, sir
Zane wiped the silver dagger and left.
Nancy said he was Vincent’s lackey So what?
Originally, he was a dying person. If Vincent hadn’t rescued him from the dead, he would have become a lost soul.
If anyone dared to hurt Vincent, he would fight that person to death!
When Vincent saw the message from Zane, saying that Nancy had been punished as ordered and asked his subordinates to do likewise.
Vincent held the phone tightly and pursed his lips
He took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket and lit it.
In the steaming smoke, his eyes were full of scarlet. What he regretted most was not getting rid of that scourge. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
A cigarette soon finished, and he put it out in the ashtray.
Vincent looked at Stephanie’s sleeping face on the phone, and his eyes gradually calmed down. Only Stephanie could calm him down
The night without her was hard, and he wondered if Stephanie felt the same way.
At that moment, Stephanie had just finished taking a shower and walked out of the bathroom wearing the cute pink pajamas Selena prepared for her.
Madeline pressed her to sit in front of the dresser and said, “I will help you dry your hair.
Stephanie looked up and smiled. Thank you, Madeline.”
Madeline said softly, “Stephie, do you think we’re destined to meet each other? When we first met, you saved me. If it hadn’t been for you, I would have died.”
“Maybe it’s fate.” With that, they both laughed out loud.
Madeline heard the sound of moving objects from the cloakroom. She smiled, “Stephie, I’ll take you to see a surprise later “What kind of surprise?”
Stephanie was very curious. There were too many surprises this evening, and she hadn’t fully digested them yet. Madeline dried her waist–length hair, put the hairdryer on the table, and took Stephanie’s hand to walk towards the
cloakroom
The cloakroom was about 500 square feet, with a clothing area, jewelry area, shoes and socks area
Madeline took Stephanie into the jewelry area and saw Selena placing several gift boxes on the carpet, which had been piled
up into a hill

Selena smiled gently. Here you are”
Madeline nodded and looked at Stephanie. “Stephie, these are all gifts we’ve got for you Knowing that you were left ourside, we had been trying very hard to find you, but every time we were disappointed. We didn’t know whether you were alive or dead, happy or not. We all felt sorry for the younger sister we had never met before. So, we will buy all the gifts that we owe you for more than ten years, and every year on your birthday, we will also buy gifts to celebrate your birthday. Grandpa, Grandma. Mom, and Dad, all five of us had prepared gifts. There are more than 200 gifts!”
Looking at the gift boxes in different colors, Stephanie was moved to tears.
She had never been treated like this in the Hayes family, neither on her birthday nor at other times.
Looking at her pursed lips with tears in her eyes, Madeline couldn’t help feeling distressed.
She hugged Stephanie and said, “Stephie, you will have brothers, sister, parents, and grandparents who love you in the future You have relatives. We are all the closest to you.”
Stephanie’s voice was trembling. “Okay.”
Selena also hugged them and said, “We will be with you from now on, Stephie”
Stephanie once divided her heart into three areas: family affection, love, and friendship.
Friendship was given by Julianna Love was given by Vincent, but there was a part of family affection from her grandpa, but most of which was vacant
Now this area was full of family affection.
Stephanie was very happy, but she couldn’t help crying.
She cried because she had been separated from her loved ones for twenty–two years.
How many twenty–two years were there in life?
The three of them hugged each other and cried for a long time until they were tired. Then they sat on the carpet and began to open the gift boxes,
Madeline said, “We don’t know what we bought each other and I was really curious. I’ll look at the one–year–old gift Grandpa. bought first.”
There was a label on the gift box, which said. [For my granddaughter’s first birthday present, Grandpa.]
When Madeline opened it, she saw a baby rusk inside.
“It looks a little ugly,” Stephanie said.
Stephanie looked at the bone–shaped baby rusk and felt that it was especially for pets.
She laughed out loud, “Grandpa doesn’t have good taste in choosing gifts. Fortunately, he had a good eye when choosing
Grandma
With that, the three of them burst into laughter.
They opened more than 200 gift boxes
Except for the shape of the gift Kenneth chose, others gifts were all beautiful Costumes, jewelry, and ornaments were bought according to age groups, so clothes and shoes were gradually larger in size.
It was amazing to suddenly be spoiled by a group of people, and she loved every present.
Stephanie felt herself in a state of happiness.
The three of them were lying on the big bed, with Stephanie in the middle and Selena and Madeline on both sides, both
close to her.
Soon, people on both sides fell asleep. Stephanie gently got up and came to the dresser. She sent a message to Vincent on her phone.
[Are you asleep?]
