Chapter 13
Owen squinted dangerously, “She just changed employers. As long as I get rid of you, she will always come back to me.”
Jessica laughed even louder, her laughter tinged with sarcasm.
“You were wrong, did you forget how you treated Maya during this time?”
“When I locked her in the cold storage, you only said she could handle it. I whipped her 99 times, and you casually said as long as she didn’t die, it was fine. Then you forcibly had sex with her for your own desires. I fed her birth control pills every meal, and you even praised me for doing a good job. I forced her to drink 99 bottles of strong liquor…”
At this point, Jessica paused, because she was trembling all over with
excitement.
“Do you think she would still continue to like you?”
Owen remained convinced; “She has been like this for so many years, her feelings for me have never changed.”
“As for you…”
He waved his hand and immediately several bodyguards surrounded Jessica, grabbing her limbs.
“Throw her into the cold storage, let her also feel how desperate Maya

was back then.”
The bodyguards acted immediately, dragging Jessica towards the exit.
Jessica struggled to break free, her voice sharp and hysterical.
“Owen, how could you do this to me?!”
“Even if you solve me, you won’t get Maya. She doesn’t want you anymore!”
Her voice grew fainter and fainter, until Owen couldn’t hear her anymore. He turned and rushed out of the auditorium, running all the way to his car and driving at high speed towards Maya’s house.
He tightly gripped the steering wheel, exerting so much force that his knuckles were turning white.
All the way, he was fantasizing that Maya would be at home when he pushed open the door, and she would smile at him as she used to.
As long as he treated her well, she would stick to him again.
This time, the usual one-hour journey only took half an hour. Before the car even came to a complete stop, he quickly got off the car.
The moment the door opened, he stood still in shock.
The inside has already been emptied.
Those corners that once held sweet memories have been replaced by emptiness.
Thinking about what Jessica had just said, Owen completely panicked

and quickly took out his phone to send a message to Maya, only to receive a red exclamation mark in return.
The dazzling red reflected in his eyes, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, almost feeling a sharp pain.
He immediately switched to the dialing page and dialed Maya’s number.
One call, two calls, three calls…
His response was an endless busy tone.
This time, Owen finally confirmed that Maya really didn’t want to turn back.
Breathing seemed to stop at this moment, the sourness in his throat blocked him from breathing.
He rubbed his forehead hard, trying hard to keep himself calm, and slowly thought about where Maya would go.
Next, he dialed the phone number of the stand-in company.
“Help me look up the specific address of Maya’s new employer, Liam.”
The staff were a bit hesitant.
“Sorry sir, we are unable to provide you with information about other clients.”
“No way?” Owen’s voice was as cold as ice, sending shivers down the spine. “Then I will report to the higher-ups. If they can’t provide it, I will consider the plan to acquire your company.”

The staff’s voice trembled in fear, “Okay, we will get back to you as soon as possible.”
That night, Owen had a dream.
He dreamed of the first time he saw Maya, just one glance, his heart skipped a beat inexplicably.
That night when he used all means to win her over, she buried her face in his chest, blushing, and confessed that it was her first time, asking him to be gentle.
Later, they got together. She stayed up for several days without sleep when he was sick, and after he recovered, she climbed 999 steps one by one to pray for his safety.
He also ran a few blocks to buy pastries for him just because he mentioned wanting to eat them.
And all of these became the capital for him to compete with Jessica.
In the dream, Owen saw Maya’s tearful eyes in the end.
That day, he shut the door on Jessica for the 99th time.
In the weather of minus ten degrees, Maya sat outside the door all night in thin clothes, but she never managed to soften his heart and
knock on that door.
Owen did hear the sobbing in her voice.
“Owen, I have tried so hard for so long, why can’t you just like me a little bit, even just a little bit.”

But at that time, he was only thinking about Jessica.
The dream came to a halt, Owen suddenly woke up and found assistant standing by the bed, shaking him incessantly.
The assistant held up the phone, and on the screen was the w “Maya” written boldly, describing it with her mouth.
“I got in touch with Ms. Heald!”
