Essie sighed in a low voice. If she could figure out what had happened that night when she had lost her
consciousness, everything would be clear.
She stood up and went to the dressing room. When she came out, she saw a tall figure standing at the
end of the corridor. Her face looked particularly strange in the dark light. She looked at Essie with a
very gloomy smile on her face.
"Eve!" Exclaimed Essie.
Eve waved at her, stiffened like a ghost, then turned around and walked outside. Essie followed her in
a hurry and the two of them went to the deck behind the cruise ship.
"You are alive." Essie tried her best to control her tone.
"I'm a good swimmer. How could I die?" Eve could hold her breath in the water for twenty minutes. As
soon as she jumped down, she ran away quickly.
"Why are you here?" Asked Essie.
"Of course I'm here for you, my lady." Eve stressed the two words "my lady" on purpose.
"I'm not your lady, and your master is dead." All of a sudden, Essie lowered her voice like the sea
breeze passing by.
"Do you really want my master to die? Don't forget that you are still pregnant with his child?" A
malicious and insidious look flashed across Eve's eyes.
Covering her belly unconsciously, Essie asked, "Eve, did you drug me in the milk on the night of the
wedding?"
Eve was a little shocked. The fact that she had sex with her master would become her secret and she
would never tell anyone until she died.
"No, I didn't. why should I drug you? It's the side effect of your medicine and you fainted. I called the
master and he took you into the room." She said calmly.
Was it? Confused, Essie glanced at her and didn't know whether she should believe her or not. Usually,
if she had a headache, Steven would let her go immediately. If she fainted because of the side effect of
the medicine that day, how could he do that to her?
And when she woke up in the morning, there was nothing wrong with her body. It didn't look like she
had have a sex. Then why did he say that to her? Did he lie to her in order to make her be with him
wholeheartedly?
But on second thought, Essie recalled that he was very happy after knowing that she was pregnant. It
seemed that he completely believed that she was pregnant with his baby. If he hadn't touched her that
night, he would definitely know that the baby was not his and he would definitely not be happy.
The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. She always felt that there must be
something wrong with it. She wanted to believe her own feelings. She didn't want to live with a dirty
black dot in the rest of her life.
"Eve, Steven is dead. What are you going to do in the future?" Essie asked tentatively. Eve was loyal to
Steven. If Steven didn't let Eve tell her about that, Eve wouldn't tell her.
"Let me tell you. My master is still alive. The one who was dead was his substitute."
"What?" There was a violent spasm all over Essie's body.
"Do you know how much my master loves you? He can do anything for you, including compromise to
his enemy. No matter what he did to you, it was all because he loved you. He fell in love with you at the
first sight. He has been looking for you for four years. He finally found you, but you married someone
else. You betrayed on him, and you don't deserve him at all! " Eve's tone became cold.
Essie's mind was confused. She suddenly realized that Steven might just be a fake name, not his real
name at all.
"Tell me, who is Steven? Did I know him before?"
"You can guess it yourself. But I tell you, he has always been by your side. He looks at you and the
baby in your belly. When it is born, he will definitely come and take it away. He won't let it recognize
Zac as his father." Eve sneered coldly.
Just as her laughter disappeared, a gunshot came from the deck. Then she groaned and fell to the
ground, her legs bleeding profusely.
Terrified, Essie turned her head and saw Zac standing not far away with a pistol in his hand. His eyes
were full of killing intent. He heard their conversation clearly. That bastard was still alive. Even if he
turned the earth upside down, he would pull him out, cut him into pieces and burn him to ashes.
"Arrest her and take her away!" He snapped. The men in black rushed forward, lifted Eve up and
walked towards the cabin. In the darkness, a silenced gun barrel was stretched out. As soon as the
man pressed his finger, Eve let out a scream and lowered her head. Blood slid down from her forehead
like a stream.
"Protect boss and lady." Ford shouted and pressed the alarm in his hand.
Thousands of men in black immediately rushed up from all directions. Ford ordered his men to take
away the girl who was shot, and he took people to protect Zac and Essie.
Zac, like a tornado, rushed to the side of Essie and protected her.
The shooter ran to the bow of the ship and jumped into the sea.
Several men in black raised their guns and shot towards the sea. Then a corpse slowly floated out of
the sea.
The murderer was shot in the chest and killed in the sea.
The luxury cruise ship was equipped with a small hospital with sophisticated equipment, which could
carry out operations when necessary. Perhaps it was because it was too dark on the deck that the
murderer did not target Eve. Although she was shot in the head, she was not dead.
The doctor gave her a craniotomy operation and took out the bullets to save her life, but she lost
consciousness and was in a coma.
"Keep her alive and try every means to wake her up." Zac ordered. Her life was still useful. From what
she said just now, he vaguely thought of a suspect, but he was not sure, nor did he want to be sure. He
wanted to open her mouth and explain everything clearly.
After that, he asked his men to thoroughly investigate all the crew and waiters on the cruise ship to
make sure that no enemies would sneak in.
Essie went to the deck to look for the children. Because of the distance, they were not frightened.
Besides, there were bodyguards and men in black around, so no one could get close to them and
endanger their safety.
After Zac came back, he asked the nannies to take the children back to their rooms to sleep.
Walking up to him, Essie sighed, "will Eve wake up again?"
"I will wake her up. I won't let those who hurt you die easily." Zac gnashed his teeth. Sometimes life
was more terrible than death. Death was the real end.
"Did you hear what we said just now?" Lowering her head, Essie asked. It seemed that he was going to
arrest Steven.
A hint of lust flashed through Zac's eyes. He seemed to have sensed something. He held her slender
waist and pulled her into his arms. "That bastard. I'll catch him even if I dig three feet into the ground. I
won't spare him!" His voice was extremely cold, full of bloodthirsty killing intent. She shivered and
opened her mouth for two times. She wanted to say something, but finally stopped.
"It's late. I'm going to bed." She murmured.
Zac didn't let her go. He pinched her chin and forced her to look straight into his eyes. "Even if you lose
your memory, you can only have me in your heart. There will never be anyone else, understand?" His
tone was full of unparalleled, domineering and strong.
"You are my husband, of course I have only you in my heart." Essie pouted again. She just thought that
although Steven was hateful, he should give him a chance to turn over a new leaf.
With a satisfied smile on his face, Zac loosened his grip on her waist, put his arm around her shoulder
and accompanied her back to her room.
The night was quiet again.
In C City, Eva leaned against the sofa and fell asleep unconsciously. After soaking in the water for
more than half a night, Vinton finally eliminated the drug effect. When he came out of the bathroom, he
saw the sleeping girl. He shook his head and laughed. He didn't disturb her. Instead, he picked up the
quilt and covered her with it.
On the second day, when Eva woke up, he found that Vinton was sleeping on the sofa on the carpet.
He seemed to want to stay with her, but he didn't want to disturb her.
She gently touched his forehead and found that his temperature was normal, indicating that the
medicine had passed. She was relieved.
Vinton moved and seemed to wake up. He opened his eyes and saw that Eva had woken up. He stood
up and said, "you're awake. Wash yourself and have breakfast." He smiled and his eyes were full of
affection. She was a foodie and couldn't be hungry for even a minute.
Eva smiled, revealing two cute dimples. She was indeed hungry. Every morning when she opened her
eyes, the first thing she wanted to do was to enjoy the beautiful breakfast time.
For foodies, the time was perfect when they ate.
"Vinton, I found that except for Essie, you know me best."
"If I don't know you, how can I be your boyfriend?" Vinton smiled gently, like the warm wind and the
warm sunshine, making Eva feel warm in her heart. She sat up straight, simply tidied herself up, took
his arm and walked out of the door.
When she arrived at the restaurant, she happened to meet Valery and Wendy. Last night, Wendy was
pushed out of the door and almost had an accident. Fortunately, Valery didn't go back to her room. She
had been hiding outside and peeping, and rescued her in time.
"Are you disappointed that your plan didn't work?" Eva looked at them with mockery.
Valery snorted and her eyes were burning with anger. Where did this little bitch come from? Did she get
lucky last night?
"What are you talking about? Why are you here?" She pretended to be innocent.
"Of course I'm here to accompany Vinton." Eva leaned his head on Vinton's shoulder, looking very
lovable and intimate.
Wendy's eyes were about to spit blood, "Eva, if you are shameless, let my fiance go, aren't you afraid
of being despised by your fans?"
Before she finished her words, Vinton shouted in a low voice, "Wendy, shut up. The woman I admit is
called fiancee. If you really want to marry me, just hold the door frame of our Xu family and marry it. It
has nothing to do with me."
"Vinton, don't you think it's too much to treat Wendy like this? What's so good about that actress that
you protect her like this?"
Valery immediately spoke for Wendy. She would try her best to stop Eva from being with Vinton. If she
became her sister-in-law, it would be like a tiger with wings added to Essie, and it would be extremely
disadvantageous to the position of her and her mother in the Xu family.
