NovelOnlineNot long after Yvette left, Jeremiah was heading back when he saw Zoey standing not far away with an angry look on her face.
A cold look flashed in his eyes as he recalled what had happened the previous night. He approached her slowly without saying a word.
"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Zoey, who hadn't realized her position yet, thought she would be pampered in the Lane family just as she was in the Yandell family. "What should I say?" Jeremiah asked in return. Zoey was taken aback. "We are engaged! I am your fiancée; why can't I touch you?" She was too proud to ask Jeremiah about Yvette. After all, if it got out that he liked Yvette, Zoey's reputation would be the one that would suffer.

Zoey clenched her fists. "Aren't you being too conservative?" Jeremiah's dislike for her peaked at that moment. Just then, Jackie called. Jeremiah took the call as he reassured Zoey, "We'll talk when I get back." Zoey had to suppress her temper. "I'll go hfirst, then." She had wanted to move into Lane Mansion, but Jeremiah told her the place was still being renovated. Once I was ready, she could move in.
After watching her get into her car and leave, Jeremiah took out his phone again. It turned out that Jackie hadn't called him.
Jeremiah dialed a number. "Stop the Bentley that just left Lane Mansion and get a few people to take the occupant..." An hour later, Zoey was in a dimly lit room with a camera set up in the middle after being knocked unconscious. She was surrounded by a few men. There was a silver car parked outside the room. Jeremiah sat quietly in the vehicle. One of his men cautiously said, "Mr. Jeremiah, I'm not sure this is a good idea." After all, Zoey was Jeremiah's official fiancée. If something truly happened to her and Jeremiah regretted it later, these lackeys would all be in deep trouble.
Jeremiah was indifferent. "There's nothing wrong with it. A disobedient dog needs to be taught a lesson." After saying that, he leaned back in his seat and closed his beautiful eyes, signaling for his men to start.
All that could be heard from the dim room were Zoey's heart-wrenching screams. It was unclear how much thad passed before it finally ended. The men left with the camera.
After a while, Jeremiah got out of the car and had someone kick open the door.
Inside, Zoey was barely clothed, her body was covered in bruises, and her hair was disheveled. She was no longer the high-and-mighty lady she once was. When she saw someone enter, she instinctively shuddered and screamed frantically. "Don't cnear me! Don't cnear me!" Jeremiah quickly walked over to her, took off his coat, and draped it over her. "Zoey, it's me." His gentle voice instantly brought Zoey back to her senses. She looked up at Jeremiah and hugged him tightly, tears streaming down her face. "Jerry!" Jeremiah suppressed his disgust and didn't push her away. Instead, he addressed his men behind him. "Take Ms. Yandell to the hospital." Zoey, somewhat regaining her senses, thought about what had happened and then about Jeremiah suggesting the hospital. She immediately refused. "I dont want to go the hospital, Jerry. I don't want to go to the hospital."
