Chapter 703: Chapter 703: Seizing Sovereignty
"Leon Rivers, why didn’t you tell me?" Melody Thorne grabbed his collar, "Why didn’t anyone tell me? Didn’t he say he went abroad for business negotiations?"
"Sister-in-law, Jared won’t be in any trouble. He’s been through life and death situations countless times, trust me, he’ll be back," Harold Chapman spoke up.
Melody Thorne released Leon Rivers, "If anything happens to him, both of you should go keep him company!"
"Madam, Madam, Simon Sutton said something happened at the company. Jared has been missing for a few days now, and the Lin family has gone completely mad, trying to drain the company while Jared is away," Dr. Mo hurried in. "Do you want me to call the old master now, to let him go to the company?"
"No need," Melody Thorne’s mind was in chaos. "When Jared Quinn left, he said that if the Lin family wanted to make trouble, let them, no need to stop it, he had already arranged everything before he left.
"Alright."
"Sister-in-law, where are you going?"
"I’m going to find him."
Melody Thorne drove to the seaside, hurried to the seaside house where Jared Quinn had given her a ring last time.
The empty hall was filled with the smell of blood, spreading all the way to the deepest part.
"Jared Quinn," Melody Thorne turned on the lights in the hall.
"Turn off the lights!" a hoarse voice with a threatening tone came from inside.
It was Jared Quinn’s voice, but also much like that uncontrollable image of Jared Quinn from that day.
Opening the door to the front room, she saw Jared Quinn’s tall figure lying on a large bed inside, with blood continually flowing from his chest.
"Jared Quinn," Melody Thorne’s hands trembled, "How are you? Where are you hurt? Why not go to the hospital?"
"Go to the hospital so they can kill me?" Jared Quinn’s hand gripped her wrist, "Or knock me out in the office like you did that day?"
Melody Thorne’s heart pounded chaotically. She knew Jared Quinn was having another episode, and this wasn’t him.
"No, that day I lost control," Melody Thorne steadied her emotions, her hands touched his clothes, "Don’t move, I’ll help you treat the wound."
"You think I would believe you?" Jared Quinn’s large hand clamped around her slender neck, his blood-red eyes like life-threatening smoke, gradually increasing pressure.
"Jared Quinn..." Melody Thorne’s face gradually turned pale.
Jared Quinn’s large hand suddenly withdrew, painfully enduring, veins bulging uncontrollably on his arms, "Melody, knock me out."
"Ding," Melody Thorne received a text message on her phone: [Sister-in-law, if you find Jared, don’t use the same method as last time, repeated fainting will only worsen his condition. You have to find a way to help him get through it on his own, take control.]
Melody Thorne glanced down, then wrapped her arms around Jared Quinn from behind, "Jared Quinn, you promised not to hurt me. Hang on, think of Timmy, think of me, think of our wedding, you can’t be controlled."
The man in front was left with only heavy breathing, painfully suppressed.
It was unclear how much time passed, the blood on his chest nearly fully flowed out, only then did Jared Quinn’s suffering cease.
He completely pulled himself back with rationality.
"Melody," Jared Quinn breathed weakly, holding her in his arms, taking in her scent, "How did you find me?"
Melody Thorne couldn’t help but cry aloud, "Jared Quinn, you lied to me, I won’t forgive you, I absolutely won’t forgive you."
