All Chapters of Giving You the Love of a Lifetime: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

Dixon had not been duly updated on the discord between Quincy and the Shaw family. Thus, he had naively believed that marrying Quincy would heal me.Quincy barely knew him. Why would she marry him?It was only because Quincy was fully aware of our relationship.She wanted to separate us, even if it meant sacrificing her own marriage."I'll make sure she cures your illness."Dixon was determined. I untangled myself from his arms and gazed at him, urging, "What if she doesn't?"He pursed his lips. "She gave a chance at least."What chance?!Was it the condition of marrying her?I chuckled sarcastically, "I don't want to live on such charity."I spun and entered my car as Dixon gripped my arm, pleading, "Caroline, come home with me."He was referring to the Shaw family mansion."Dixon, let's break up."I wanted to let go because this unending entanglement was taxing.I was weary of being hurt by him time and time again.Especially when he claimed it was all for my own good.

What kind of banquet would be obligatory?I furrowed my brows and asked, "What banquet?"The assistant clarified, "Old Mr. Yale's 80th birthday celebration. The banquet was originally supposed to be held overseas but due to the scandal a few days ago, Yale Corporations' stocks have been plummeting and Old Mr. Yale wants to use this chance to restore their image, as well as to deliver an apology to you, President Shaw."The banquet was being partly organized for me, so it was indeed unavoidable.I relented and said, "Prepare some gifts.""Yes, I'll make the necessary arrangements."I went back to the office after Chuck had left and scanned the table. Not too many files were on the table so I picked up a fountain pen, ready to settle some work.I no longer dealt with the company's official matters personally but that did not undermine my competence earnt through years of experience.Noon came around just as I finished plowing through my work. Chuck tidied up his work and took me

Luck had not been on my side recently as I had encountered attacks one after another. I had suffered slaps and beatings, not to mention being slashed by a knife. Now, I would have been splashed with some unknown liquid if not for Dixon.He had hugged me protectively and I was not injured as a result. In my disheveled state, I rose and sat on a chair.The backyard was dimly illuminated and I sat on the chair to recover but apprehension lingered as I ignored Dixon throughout.He picked himself up and smoothed out his suit before frigidly admonishing, "What are you doing?"Wendy swiftly deflected all the blame. "Mr. Gregg, this has nothing to do with me. I had no idea Gwen would attempt such a thing. Are you and Miss Shaw alright?"Dixon disregarded Wendy and glared at Gwen with a malicious glint in his eyes. "What's in that bottle?"Gwen grinned and stated, "Dixon, it's sulfuric acid."Her attitude just then was the most accurate representation of fearlessness.I glanced at the l

I did not know what to say.The chauffeur drove straight to Zachary's apartment.Initially, I had planned to hail another taxi and leave, but the chauffeur kept staring at me intensely. I had no chance of escaping.I was left with no choice but to follow him up to the highest level.After entering the password, he stretched out his hand and invited me in. After I had stepped in, he quickly closed the door, as if he was professionally trained to do so. I wandered around the apartment and did not see Zachary.At this time, he was probably still with the Yale family.I randomly found a room and went in to remove my makeup. Looking at my pale face, I broke into a smile and said, "Thankfully, I'm not disfigured."I deliberately paid attention to my scar. It was very, very light.It was really not as ugly as Zachary had claimed.After patting my face dry, I went out barefoot to the living room. Looking out of the window, I could see an endless stream of people on the streets.The n

Zachary did not reply to my message. I called my assistant and found out that he had yet to leave A City. In the end, my assistant was not the only one who came to pick me up. Dixon was sitting at the back with a stern face."What are you doing here?" I asked with a frown.My assistant quickly explained, saying, "President Gregg and I stayed in the same hotel last night. We are taking the same flight so we came downstairs together this morning. It was then that I received your call."I did not know what to say.I opened the car door helplessly and got in. Dixon turned his head and scanned the neighborhood with a cold gaze. He asked, "You have a house here?"I could not answer. My assistant's reaction was swift and he quickly lied for me, "President Gregg, we have two sets of houses here."I was speechless.He was really doing the best he could.Chuck was quite obedient to Dixon.It was already very late when we reached Wu City. Since I was unable to have a good night's rest, I

I started to drive towards the hospital, but Zachary stopped me."Caley, they will be able to find me at the hospital."The injuries on his body seemed very serious."What about a hotel?" I asked worriedly."Keep away from the cameras."The hotel was located in the city area, and there were countless cameras.We could not go to the hospital or a hotel, and I also did not want to take him back to the Shaw family's villa, so I decided to take him to my apartment.I drove along a small path back to the city to avoid the cameras. There were many cameras in my neighborhood, but luckily it was my own estate.I drove into the private garage where a dazzling array of luxury cars were parked. My assistant had prepared all these for me.I parked the car in a random spot and turned to look at Zachary. His gaze was clear and his mental state was perfectly fine.Actually, I did not need to worry about him. However, he had said that he would protect me my entire life and had even made the

Zachary had already deemed me as a woman who wandered with around different kinds of men. He even thought that I had a lot of partners!And he thought that I approached them because of money.I could not explain myself, and all the more felt that there was no need to do so. I simply followed along and answered, "Not for the time being."After pausing for a while, I blurted out, "I'm not going out with anyone permanently. I'll just wait and see, perhaps I'll meet someone suitable later on."He said indifferently, "If you're short of money, you can always look for Luke."At that moment, my brain malfunctioned, causing me to spout nonsense. However, Zachary's expression was calm. He did not criticize me by telling me that was wrong. From the way he trusted me, it seemed that he had never investigated me.It seemed that he did not care about who I was!What I had done in the past!And what I was doing right now!In his understanding, I was Caley.The Caley whom he had never under

Zachary replied to me faintly, "No."He did not ask me out of curiosity about why I had vomited blood. He simply turned sideways and made way for me.I went out to sit on the sofa and finished taking my medicine. This time around, the nauseous feeling was not as intense as before.I forced myself to swallow the medicine and turned my head to see Zachary still standing in the same spot. I asked in hesitation, "Are you going back to Tong City tomorrow? I can take you there personally.""No need. Luke is coming to pick me up."Zachary rejected me and I was not disappointed.It was just that it would be hard for us to meet again after this separation.I lay on the sofa to rest. Zachary suddenly came over and sat next to me. I asked him in surprise, "Aren't you going to sleep?"He explained, "I'm not sleepy. Luke's almost here."Luke was on his way here?"Then I'll go sleep in my room."As soon as I got up, Zachary shouted, "Caley."I looked at him with a puzzled gaze and asked,

A glass of cold, red wine was splashed onto my face. I shut my eyes tightly and burst out laughing after a long while. "I'm so unlucky recently, always surrounded by a group of flies trying to find trouble with me. It's so disgusting that I feel like puking!"I stood up and directly picked up a plate of steak and threw it at her face. The sharp knife slashed across her forehead and bright red blood gushed from the cut. She looked at me in complete shock, as if she had not expected me to do that.I wiped my face with my hand and warned her sternly, "Don't think that you can be so unscrupulous just because I won't take it out on you! Trust me, Wendy Yale, when I set my mind to it, even your father won't be able to protect you. As for that Caroline Shaw... "Did she think that I was afraid?!I was never afraid. I was just guilty.But the guilt in my heart was not the reason why she bullied me.I emphasized each word clearly as I said, "She can't defeat me."The blood on Wendy's for

"Caroline, I need a kidney."That was her purpose.She lacked a kidney, so she was coming to find me.I wanted to reject her, but I could not bring myself to say those words.That was because our Shaw family had taken away one of her kidneys.I covered my mouth and let my tears fall without saying a word. Quincy's clear voice was without sorrow nor joy. "I'm suffering from kidney failure and I need a new kidney. Caroline, your family took away my kidney.""I'm sorry," I replied as I tried to suppress my sorrow."Caroline, I know that you're ill. Let's make a deal. I'll treat your sickness and you give me a kidney."If only it was that simple.How could Quincy let me off so easily?"Don't you blame me?" I asked."I do, but I want to live. Besides, what wrong have you done? Caroline, the ones who are in the wrong have always been the adults."She was very frank to say that she had blamed me.But she also said that I was not in the wrong.I cried, "Quincy...""Caroline, wil
