Chapter 38 At Worst We''ll Lose Together
Chapter 38 At Worst We''ll Lose Together
"I''m telling the truth."
Gwenyth Lovce didn''t show any weakness in front of Luna Engles.
This girl was born in the same year as Susie Lovce, a few months younger than her even.
Speaking of which, she could be considered Luna Engles'' older sister.
"Father gave you money, and you pretended not to ept it. I didn''t do anything to you, but you
turned around and harmed me. What are you nning? Are youining that he only gave you
144 thousand dors, so you intentionally said that I wanted to run you over to make him pity you
and give you morepensation?"
Gyth Lovceughed , "Your imagination is really rich."
"Do you want more?"
"I''ve already said that I have nothing to do with the Engles. Can you please stop bothering me?"
She already has plenty of troubles to deal with already, with those debt collectors and Edison Yates
giving her headaches. She couldn''t spare any energy to deal with the people from the Engles.
"I don''t like your attitude."
"No sincerity!"
Luna Engles got up with a cold face, looked around the small room, and saw two golf clubs standing
on the golf club rack in the corner. She walked over and picked up one that felt right, swinging it.
"Tie her up."
With Luna Engles''s order, the two men began to work. One went to get the rope while the other
pulled Gwenyth Lovce up and made her sit on a chair.
The rope was wound tightly around Gwenyth Lovce''s body, binding her tightly to the chair.
Luna Engles walked towards her with the golf club, making two strokes next to her head with the
iron clubhead.
Was Luna Engles trying to use her head as a ball?
"You hit me today, and this matter will not end kindly."
Gwenyth Lovce pretended to be calm, but her palms were already sweating.
Luna Engles snorted, not taking her words to heart, and continued to swing the club in those
strokes.

"Last time you didn''t hit me, but if you hurt me this time, I will not just sit back and take it. I will make
a fuss with the Engles, and let everyone in the Engles know what you have done to me. I will also
find the media and reveal my identity, letting the public know how the Engles heartlessly kicked my
family of three out of our home twenty years ago."
"The shameful secrets that the Engles has covered up for many years, do you think you can
withstand the pressure from the public opinion and the me from your family, because they were
exposed due to your actions? Can you continue to live a peaceful life?"
Luna Engles'' expression changed slightly, and her hand holding the golf club tightened gradually,
with her fingers turning white and the veins on the back of her hand bulging.
"Are you threatening me?"
She squinted her eyes and stared coldly at Gwenyth Lovce''s calm face, "You''re really thinking of
challenging me?"
"You forced me to. I''ve got nothing to lose anyways, at worst, we''ll lose together."
"If you can''t even leave this door today, will you still have a chance to do what you just said?"
"If I won''t be able to, I still have my family and friends."
Gwenyth Lovce actually had very few friends, but she didn''t want to bow down to Luna Engles.
So she had to continue with a brave face and said, "I never wanted to have any rtionship with the
Engles in my life. Martin Engles came to find me, and I didn''t want to acknowledge him, nor did I
take his money. But you insisted on causing trouble."
Large beads of sweat dripped down Gwenyth Lovce''s forehead.
She was feeling anxious, afraid that her words wouldn''t intimidate Luna Engles.
"You''re quite interesting,"
Luna Engles put away her golf club and took a step back, sitting directly on the coffee table facing
Gwenyth Lovce.
She knew that Gwenyth Lovce was making ast-ditch effort.
"Let me go, and we won''t cross each other''s path again."
Luna Engles fell silent for a moment and thenid out her conditions. "Then you have to promise me
that you will never see my father again."
"I''m sorry, I can''t promise that."
"Then there''s nothing left to talk about,"
Luna Engles'' eyes lit up, stood up, and swung the golf club in her hand again.
Realizing that Luna Engles had misunderstood what she meant, Gwenyth Lovce quickly
exined, "I won''t proactively contact Martin Engles, I haven''t asked him for money, all I can
guarantee is that I won''t look for him or have any contact with the Engles. But if hees to me, I
can''t stop him."
"You can continue moving, move to a ce where he can''t find you."
"Even without your reminder, we will still move."
If she hadn''t promised the debt collectors that she wouldn''t run away, she would have already
started nning to move.
"When do you n to move?"
"Three monthster."
"Why do you need that long?"
"I have my own difficulties."
Luna Engles put down the golf club in her hand and sat down on the sofa, "Do you even have the
money to move?"
"It''s up to you to think whatever you want."
"Poor thing."
Luna Engles sneered andughed, looking at Gwenyth Lovce. She noticed that Gwenyth
Lovce was wearing cheap clothes from the street vendor, and her anger dissipated a lot.
"I''ll trust you this time."
As soon as she finished speaking, she waved her hand to the two bodyguards and said, "Escort her
out."
As soon as Gwenyth Lovce felt relieved, a ck cloth bag was thrown over her head, and her
bindings were removed. She was lifted up and taken back to where she hade from, just like
before.
The business car stopped by the side of the road, and the car door was opened. The ck cloth
bag was removed from her head, and then a hand pushed her from behind.
She was pushed out of the car and stumbled, nearly falling over.
The car behind her drove off, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Looking around, she noticed tworge bags lying on the ground not far away.
Those were the cling wrap and vegetables she bought from the supermarket.
Surprisingly, nobody had picked them up.
Thinking back on what had happened in the past hour, she was still a bit shaken.
Including the time she had spent outside, it had been about two hours.
She hurried over and picked up the bags from the ground.
When she returned to the Moonlight Vi, it was already 10 o''clock.
When she entered, Edison Yates was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV.
His attention wasn''t on the TV, but rather on the wall clock. When he heard the sound of the door
opening, he turned to the foyer and saw that Gwenyth Lovce had returned. He turned off the TV
and got up, walking towards her.
"One hour, huh?"
Gwenyth Lovce carried her things towards the kitchen, with Edison Yates following behind her.
What were you doing?"
"Shopping."
"You shopped for two hours?"
Gwenyth Lovce put the tworge bags down and began putting each vegetable into the
refrigerator one by one.
"The things were too heavy, so I rested for a while on the way back."
Edison Yates didn''t say anything, his gaze fell on her arm. Her skin was white, and the marks left by
the ropes tied around her arm were still there, but not very obvious.
"You..."
"It''ste, aren''t you going to bed yet?"
She put the vegetables away, then took out 20 rolls of stic wrap from the bag and ced them all
in the cab.
Leaning next to her, Edison Yates stood motionless, watching the marks on her arm gradually fade
away. His lips moved, but in the end he didn''t say anything.
He turned around and walked out, heading straight to his room upstairs
After lying on the bed for a while, he picked up his phone and called his assistant, Andy Fountain.
Around eleven o''clock, Andy Fountain sent a video, showing the moment when Gwenyth Lovce
was kidnapped while carrying tworge bags on her way to the Moonlight Vi.
She was taken away by a ckmercial vehicle and returned after thirty minutes.
Just as he finished watching the video, Andy Fountain called.
"Mr. Yates, we have traced the information of that car."
"Who is it?"
"It belongs to the Engles, to be precise, it''s a car used by their bodyguards."\
The Engles again...
What is the connection between Gwenyth Lovce and the Engles?
