The Woman Cherished by the CEO

In C City in December, the cold wind bit like needles.

Zona Lawrence, wearing a thin shirt, shivered as she stepped out of prison, still holding a similarly thin backpack in her hands.

Looking at the sky outside, Zona Lawrence, who had been isolated from the world for 5 years, felt somewhat uncomfortable.

She finally came out.

The women's prison was in the suburbs, sparsely populated, and Zona Lawrence looked left and right, then walked to the bus stop according to her memory from 5 years ago.

She had no electronic devices on her.

Suddenly, a black car stopped in front of her, and before Zona Lawrence could scream, she was forcefully pulled into the car.

Looking at those large hands wrapped in black suits, Zona Lawrence showed a look of terror.

Then, her mouth was covered, and the car moved forward slowly, gradually accelerating.

"Zona Lawrence!" A voice as cold as hell echoed in her ear.

Amos Sari, sitting in the back seat, curled his lips coldly. He looked at the trembling Zona Lawrence, his expression somewhat satisfied.

Zona Lawrence's neck was like a poorly maintained machine for years, even turning had become a luxury.

The man sitting beside her was actually Amos Sari, it was really him!

"Zona Lawrence, what, lost your memory after being locked up for 5 years?"

“Mr. Qiao—Mr. Qiao.” Zona Lawrence’s hands twisted together due to nervousness, and the terror on her face showed no signs of lessening, if anything, it grew deeper with Amos Sari’s outburst.

Back then, Sari sued her for stealing company secrets, and she also caused the death of a person, Sari family matriarch Gao Nianhe, an elderly woman who had been strong her whole life, who died of a sudden cerebral hemorrhage upon hearing the turmoil in the Sari family.

After that, Zona Lawrence was sent to prison. When the trial was underway, Zona Lawrence still remembered Amos Sari's cold face, who simply wouldn't listen to her explanation.

Even though she was already three months pregnant at the time.

While in prison, Zona Lawrence even felt that her life would be like this forever, but thankfully, she still had the child in her belly.

But she didn't expect Amos Sari to be so cold-blooded, to have bribed people in the prison, her child turned into a pool of blood under the merciless fists.

That was his own flesh and blood, she could even see the tiny hands and feet.

Thinking of this, Zona Lawrence trembled even harder.

Zona Lawrence heard the man whispering this name. She didn't know which word had touched his limit, as the man's lips curled in malice, dragging one of her wrists. Unaware, she was pulled across, her face rubbing hard against the smooth leather seat, the surface causing her skin to feel as if it were tearing.

The man still wouldn't give up, grabbing her hair in one hand, forcing Zona Lawrence to lift her head. She saw the man's grim face and the words he spoke were no different from those of a demon, "Is our relationship really necessary to be so distant? My good girlfriend, no, my ex-girlfriend."

Ex-girlfriend?

They were clearly getting married, the wedding ring and the wedding dress had already been tried on, but everything was shattered.

She was in front of him, without dignity, without backbone, coquettish and foolish, all of that was already in the past.

Now, Zona Lawrence only had fear and dread towards Amos Sari.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I was wrong," Zona Lawrence had a headache, her cheeks hurt, her body hurt, she could only repeat these two sentences, hoping the man could show mercy.

“You’re wrong? In what way?” The man increased the pressure on her hand. Zona Lawrence cried out in pain, but Amos Sari showed no intention of stopping.

Zona Lawrence could only stammer, “I—I made a mistake—”

“Can’t say? Very well, then I’ll ask you. Why did you betray me? Why did you collude with Bauer? Tell me!” the man roared.

The answer to Amos Sary was still silence, which made Amos Sary even angrier, Zona Lawrence was so arrogant, what was she relying on wasn't just his feelings for her? Now that he had withdrawn them, why was she still silent!

Paul, what did you agree to! Letting her in prison for 5 years without uttering a single word!

Finally, Amos Sari gripped Zona Lawrence's neck, watching as the woman's face turned from red to white, then to a purplish hue, but her mouth remained tightly clenched, not even a word of surrender.

The woman's pain was evident to Amos Sari, and originally, seeing this woman suffer, being trampled and rubbed on the ground like a dog, should have brought him pleasure, but when it actually happened, a wave of regret washed over him.

He irritably waved his hand away, Zona Lawrence's body as soft as noodles collapsed onto the car, still murmuring something like "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

This caused Amos Sari's irritation to grow infinitely in his heart, and he couldn't help but sneer, "Zona Lawrence! You really make me look down on you!"

Being mocked like this by the man she loved, Zona Lawrence's heart ached.

Her violent coughing made her tears stream down, wetting the leather seat and the car's carpet.

After a moment of silence, the car stopped, and a pair of hands threw her out.

Zona Lawrence's body rolled on the ground for a few circles, leaving bloody tracks on the ground where she scraped, perhaps because it had just snowed, there were still sparkling ice crystals at the entrance.

She has been in City C for so many years, how could she never feel it this cold, cold to the point where her heart feels icy.

Zona Lawrence looked up, and what she saw was the familiar architecture. This was—

The Lawrence family.

Suddenly, a gentle voice rang out, but it was directed not at her, but at the man behind her.

"Amos, how could you possibly trouble yourself to pick up Xiao Yu? This way, I've booked a meal at Aston for tonight. How about we go eat together?"

Amos Sari nodded.

His attitude toward her was completely different from his attitude toward Wanda Lawrence.

But no wonder, after 5 years in prison, she had been weathered into an old woman, with rough skin, stiff demeanor, and shrunken movements, while the Wanda Lawrence before her was fair-skinned and beautiful, with a slender waist, and her voice was gentle, like feathers brushing over the tip of the heart.

Such a woman, who wouldn't cherish her.

At this point, Wanda Lawrence seemed to notice Zona Lawrence on the ground, and she exclaimed, 'Oh Zona, how are you still lying on the ground? It's so cold! And your brother-in-law too, why can't he be a bit more considerate.' Her attitude was mocking, but her tone was boastful.

Yes, she heard about it, and it was the butler of the Lawrence family who told her personally that her sister Wanda Lawrence had engaged to Amos Sari.

The engagement ceremony was also held, on a day when her children were not available.

That day, it was snowing too. Her heart, with the flying snowflakes all around, sank to the ground and vanished without a trace.

Her boyfriend, married her sister. How ironic.

"Xiao Yu, you don't know yet, my husband and I are about to get married, and then we'll invite you to celebrate."
