Chapter 108 Puppets

She swallowed hard and forced a smile. Then, she held out her hand and pressed it against Adam's
chest.

He said in a soft voice, "of course I know. This is Adam's company."

"Since you know who the boss is, you should also know that as a model, you should obey whose
requests the most."

Both on and off the T-stage, she was just a puppet. She remembered that she was not in a good mood
after she stepped down from the stage for the first time, so she refused the following interviews
arranged by reporters.

At that time, Adam didn't say anything but just asked her. Are you sure that you won't go? Getting her
confident reply, he turned around and left like nothing had happened. But after that, he forced her to
give up her one month's work.

She had no job to do and she had no source to work. But now she was forced to apologize to Adam
sincerely. She then knew that it was not like she would make an open-minded decision when she was
in America. Adam was the leader of the company.

"I'm sorry." She lowered her head, just like Jean, in front of that cold, dark and dangerous eyes.

"You should know that a woman like you doesn't deserve to have such a good and beautiful emotion.
Since you went abroad just because you fell in love with another man, I will not let you be a prostitute
and pretend to be a chaste man today. I ask you to stay with Darren Lu not because you can't listen to
me if you have someone to back you up. And you, at any time, are destined to be a homeless woman.
"



His fingers moved slowly between the two women. He paused for only two seconds and then
continued, "try your best to be a decent and dutiful wife in front of Darren Lu. You must obey my orders.
I won't have tender heart for women. If you do the same thing again, no matter who you are, I will let
you struggle."

She was lucky to be alive.

Lola and Jean looked at each other, speechless. In fact, when Jean took the initiative to find her, she
refused.

Kidnapping was a matter that was against the law, not to mention that she was going to kidnap
Darren's family. She had made great efforts to gain a little advantage in front of Anna and Lu family. If
Darren knew that the pure and kind-hearted Lola would become a vicious woman, I'm afraid that all her
efforts would be wasted.

Seeing Lola's hesitation, Jean knew how to get what she wanted from others easily. So she tried to be
patient and based on her temptation, she said, "Joan has left Darren Lu's apartment. You don't want
her to move back one day, do you?"

Indeed, no matter how close they were, Darren never mentioned asking Joan to move out of his
apartment. After she mentioned it twice, he still couldn't say anything.

His expression and perfunctoriness clearly showed that he didn't want her to leave him at all.

If we kidnap Joan, will he pity her again? " Lola didn't agree with her plan. In her opinion, men were
born to cherish weak women. The stronger a woman was, the more strongly she would be treated.
When a woman was in danger, he would remember their love.

On the contrary, he pushed the two people who were about to fall apart together again.



"That's why I tried my best to keep Darren by your side. Then Joan would never forgive Darren. After
all, she is one of the most arrogant women in the world."

Burning her bridges was the best plan she had ever heard, so her smile was like a lotus flower
blooming at the corners of her mouth.

The dinner that night was also the most enjoyable one that she had had since she returned home. She
had never known that the success of her revenge was so enjoyable.

Although she had been warned by Adam, she never regretted having gone there. It was cold and wet,
and she could take it as a lesson.

Joan used her phone to hit the wall. She felt her throat was on fire.

She might have a fever. Just now, she even felt like she was vacuum. Her body was uncomfortably
wet, and she couldn't say a word. She hit the wall with her phone and a stone.

It was not because she didn't want to leave. There was only darkness outside, and occasionally some
dogs barked, but none of the street lights came. Bad images kept flashing in her mind, so she didn't
dare to act rashly.

At the thought of this, Jean felt relieved and did not hold Joan's hands or feet. She knew clearly that
she could not be brave enough to walk out of a building in this desolate mountain, as a pregnant
woman.

She felt more pain in her lower abdomen than in the dizzy head and the uncomfortable feeling in her
throat. Was her baby okay?

If she continued to stay here, the situation would get worse. Since no one came to rescue her after
calling for help for so long, she might have to rely on herself.



Thinking of this, Joan trembled and struggled to her feet. With one hand on the wall and the other on
her belly, she tried to move towards the door.

Although it was a desolate place, there were not even a single car passing by. Her instinct as a mother
told her that if she continued to waste time on the cold ground, she would really have a big problem.

She thought to herself, 'Darren, you're really a wrong person. I shouldn't have loved you.' she raised
her head and looked at the starry sky. The thick clouds seemed to be preparing a heavy rain.

The awkward situation reminded her of the night when she had just walked out of the prison.

As for her friends in prison, no matter what crime they committed, there were always family members
who were unwilling to leave when they were released from prison. However, she, who had family
members, was left in the suburbs like an orphan.

Today, the situation seemed to be the same. It was even worse than that day.

She struggled to get up and walked to the road. She looked around but didn't see the light of the car.

She really felt that her legs and knees were involuntarily bent as she really couldn't support herself
anymore. Now, she tried her best not to pass out, because she believed that she should keep herself
from fainting.

"Joan, you let it be! The father who loved you the most was looking at you in the sky. Do you remember
the promise you made to live strong at his grave? "

She murmured to herself, 'I haven't found out who is behind the bankruptcy of the Gu Company. How
can I just let it go like this?'.

There seemed to be light in the distance, which gradually blurred Joan's eyes.



She thought to herself, 'Darren Lu, finally you are here!'?

A hand held her just before she was about to fall on the ground. It seemed that he was still eagerly
calling her name.

"Joan, Joan, don't scare me."

It was him, the man with a special magnetic voice sounded in his ear. Joan tried to open her eyes and
see his face, but it seemed that there was a weight of a thousand kilograms on his face, which she
could not see clearly.

The feeling was so familiar to her that she was reassured. She closed her eyes and fell into the man's
arms, believing that he would save her.

"Damn it!" Darren Lu said through gritted teeth. He clenched his fingers in anger and collected all his
strength to pick her up. Then he put her in the car and said, "hurry up! Send her to the nearest hospital
as soon as possible. "

Austin nodded his head with force, and then he stepped on the gas and sped away. After letting go of
the little woman in his arms, Darren withdrew his right hand, which was stained with red blood.

On Joan's pale face, there were a few dust stained. Except that, she did not seem to have received any
injury.

He knew Joan was pregnant, but he had taken her to such a remote place. Leaving her in such a mess
was already unforgivable.

When Darren walked into the hospital with Joan in his arms, the nurses who had come to stop them
from asking questions didn't stop them at all. He put Joan on the bed, and shouted at the people
waiting at the door.



Maybe his eyes were too sharp, or the aura around him was too frightening.

Everybody was watching him going into the room of gynaecology and obstetrics. Nobody dared to stop
him.

"What are you looking at! Call all the best obstetrics and gynecology doctors in your hospital here.
They must protect my wife and child. "

Austin, who was closely behind Darren, followed him. His face was a little red. After all, they were in the
gynecology and obstetrics department. It was a little embarrassing for a man except some doctors and
nurses to enter the room without permission. So he explained it to Darren in a mild way. He followed a
nurse to pay the bill, the best gynecologist was arranged to do a comprehensive examination for Joan.

At the order of Darren, the blinds in the room were not down. Darren pressed his face against the glass
and observed her condition.

Bang! Darren punched the wall with his fist. The woman's face was very pale. He didn't know how long
she had stayed in such a bleak place.

She had thought that her real face would be revealed. But she was hijacked by a fan of her. This
seemingly reasonable girl seemed to be covered by her seemingly reasonable words.

He felt the pain from his knuckles. Having been in the business world for a long time, he really felt
scared today.
