Trial Of The Senses

Ashley carried her bag back to her room. She was so exhausted to turn on the light that she threw herself into the sofa.

She was terribly upset.

She had to handle with Sheila's lawyer, she had to be on guard all the time because Flora had goods on her, she didn't know how to deal with Dylan's confession of love, and now, she had made Jasper unpleasant... Notably Jasper, what happened to him today? He used to be calm. What was wrong with him? Ashley held her head in her hands, upset. Their relationship was not so pleasant recently. Why did they go into trouble again?

She sat on the sofa and thought for a long time before she could figure out what she should do first. The top priority was to deal with the lawyer of Sheila. She would never let Gloria escape. She must let Gloria get punished.

There were many people who didn't sleep this night, and Sheila was one of them.

There was no one in Fang family, and Sheila was sensitive recently. She would wake up if she lived alone at home. Even if she closed the windows and the door, she still felt scared. She didn't have a good sleep that night. The next morning when she got up, she saw dark circles under her eyes.

Yesterday, she had made up her mind to chance her luck with her friends. If it wouldn't work, she had to beg her husband Ethan again. If Ethan refused to help her, she had to beg Francis for help. All in all, she wanted to try every means. She was alone now, and Gloria was her only hope.

After she got up, she made some porridge for herself. After eating it, she put up her clothes. Noticing there were no reporters follow her, she managed to climb out from the back wall of the villa.

She had a good plan. When she begged them for help, she would ask them to give her some money. As long as she begged more friends, she would get more money. However, contrary to what she had planned, when she arrived at the door of her friends' house, they even did not open the door when they saw her. Some people even threatened to call the police because she rang the doorbell several times!

Sheila hung around more than ten households in the whole morning and none of them wanted to receive her.

She found a restaurant in the noon and had a lunch in a corner. After she paid the bill, she walked on the street with her face covered. In spite of the warm winter sun, Sheila's world seemed to be grey.

None of her friends were reliable, so she could only beg for help from Ethan. No matter what happened in the past, Ethan was so determined to love her, he would never let her alone.

There was no chance for her to go to Ethan's home, because his mother wouldn't let her in, so she had to go to his company. She had heard the address of the Jiang family's company from Ethan. But she didn't pay much attention to him in the past, so she never came to see him. It was her first time to be here.

Sheila was sitting in the café downstairs, where the white-collar workers of the office building had to go to. She waited there, and as long as Ethan passed by, he would definitely be able to see her.

When

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

Wait a little longer."

"Sheila, hurry up. I can't wait too long. Hurry up to remind Ethan, ask him to...'

"You kept mentioning Ethan. It's all your fault. Ethan and I are over. Are you satisfied with the result now?" Sheila couldn't bear the pressure and shouted at the phone.

On the other side of the phone, Gloria was also shocked. 'Are Ethan and Sheila over? What happened? Everything was fine when she called her yesterday! If without Ethan's help, Sheila could do nothing by herself, then she would screw up her case!

"Sheila, what happened between you and Ethan? Why did you suddenly..."

"Oh, don't ask any more. I'm annoyed!" Sheila interrupted Gloria, "In order to hire a lawyer for you, do you know how much I suffer? Don't push me! "

Being alone in the prison, Sheila was her only hope. Gloria was afraid that Sheila would be angry and leave her alone, so she immediately pretended to be kind, "Okay, okay, I won't ask again. I won't urge you, but you must do it as soon as possible."

"Okay, I see. Hang up the phone. I still have to figure out a way."

The two hung up the phone. Seeing the strange eyes of white collars who came to and went to her, Sheila stared back and shouted angrily, "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen anyone make a phone call?"

Those white-collar workers didn't get angry even if they were scolded. Instead, they quickly moved away from Sheila in case of any trouble.

Sheila laughed. After she laughed, she became more worried.

However, no matter how hard she tried, it didn't work at all. Gloria urged her at the same time. She was in a desperate situation.

What should she do...

Sheila recalled the horrible idea she had come up with yesterday. She believed that she could get the legacy from Samuel if she killed him!

Her heart raced and her adrenaline soared! No, she couldn't do that. Samuel was her biological father. She couldn't!

She tried to stop her idea again and again in her heart, but her mind had calculated her current situation.

She had no other choice.
