Chapter 104
The maids on duty at night were startled.
They knew Mr. Parker was cold and aloof, but they had never expected him to be so furious
“Mrs. Parker… Mrs. Parker is sleeping on the second floor “A slightly braver maid stammered a response
They really didn’t know how Mrs. Parker had upset Mr. Parker. They hoped that the two of them wouldn’t have a fight tonight.
After getting the answer, Hayden hurried upstairs with his long strides without wasting a second
The remaining maids all looked pale. “The old lady is gone, and what are we going to do now!
“Even Rita isn’t here…
As soon as those words were spoken, everyone fell silent, antiously looking upstairs.
Meanwhile, Hayden had already reached the door of the master bedroom
Moments ago, he was seething with anger, but now he was deflated, standing frozen at the door unable to bring himself to knock
Yvonne was just inside
He didn’t even know how to face her
Just a second agis, he was eager to confirm if she’d been abroad, and why the had taken care of him but mellenly left
But as he was about to confront her, he hesitated.

hotwaying anything
The woman who had always centered around him suddenly stopped paying attention that feeling of loss and interness, only he knew
He’d always been the one in charge, making million–dollar decisions for the family business in minutes
But now, things were totally different,
He stood at the door but hesitated to go into the bedroom.
Hayden didn’t know what he was exactly afraid of
He stood there for a long time, and then suddenly, there was a click as the door opened from the inside
1 had just taken a nap and felt a bit thirsty, so I wanted to go downstairs to get some water. But when I opened the door, I was startled to find Hayden standing right there,
“What
are you doing here? I blurted out without thinking.
There seemed to be a hint of surprise in Hayden’s eyes, but he quickly regained his usual calm demeanor.
Did you go abroad a couple of months ago? What did you go for?” Hayden asked, pausing between each word.
1 didn’t notice any hesitation in his voice, but the question itself left me frozen on the spot.
I thought “Why is he suddenly asking about something from two months i
After a brief pause, Hayden’s voice turned cold, even with a hint of a growl, “You looked after me? Why didn’t you i
you tell me
He seemed like a beast trapped in a cage, angry, and agitated, wanting to break free from some kind of restraint. My eyes trembled slightly.

I thought. So he found out.
I took a deep breath before looking straight into his eyes. “Why should I tell you? To show off? Hayden, I’m pretty self–aware.”
With that, I ined to move around ham and head downstairs.
But in the next moment, he grabbed my wrist tightly, yanking me back and pinning me hard against the wall
The harsh coldness of the wall sharply contrasted with the burning heat radiating from him
I got angry and fought back. “Let me go. Have you lost it recently
“Yes. You’ve driven me crazy Hayden retorted through clenched teeth.
As he spoke, his entire face moved closer to mine, and his intense gaze could almost burn through my soul,
And his nose brushed past mine deliberately
That blurred, angry closeness sermed to ignite the air around us.
The air grew thin, and I started to have trouble breathing.
“When did I drive you crazy? Did you mess up your medu I struggled desperately,

The overwhelming memories rushed back to me like a foot
Suddenly, a chill swept through my entire body, as if it froue everything around me
“I didn’t. It was the coffee Joanna made for me, and by mistake, I gave it to you? I said, phining my teet me since she’s so dear to you, but that’s the reality”
Hayden was momentarily stunned
I stared at him, noticing his expression continuanasly changing
I went from mild surprise to a deep frown.

I had no idea how long we remained like that, and then he asked, “Did you neutralize the drug while taking me to the hospital
We had never spoken so openly before this.
I clenched my fists at my y side, suddenly not wanting any more misunderstandings.
After all, as we were about to part ways, there shouldn’t be
any regrets left
“I wasn’t voluntary. At that time, you…” I didn’t finish the sentence, biting my lower lip until I tasted blood
At that time, Hayden eyes were already red and had lost all reason. I couldn’t resist
To call it forceful wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
I didn’t walk much about it afterward, just to hide my own shame and disgust
Looking at Hayden, my vision gradually blurred.
“I asked you afterwards. Why did you deny it?” His voice trembled as he questioned further.
I laughed, and it was a laugh as cold as ice. To you think this is something worth boasting about”
Hayden’s face suddenly went rigid
I could tell his breathing was starting to become labored.

“Why did you help me?” he asked again.
“Til say it again. I didn’t do it voluntarily. You forced me. Hayden, I’ve been clinging to you for ten years. Didn’t you hate me Consider this payback. From now on, I owe you nothing” I took a breath and blurted out all my thoughts-
