Chapter 1050 Furious
At this moment, the road ahead cleared, and the driver slowly drove the car forward.
Susan turned back to take one last look at Ellie and her husband, who were slowly fading into the distance, and said, "I hope Ellie can live happily like this."
Hearing this, Seb frowned and asked, "You don't hate her anymore?"
Susan smiled, took Seb's hand, and said, "It's strange. I used to quite hate her, but when I saw her holding her kid just now, I suddenly didn't hate her anymore. Actually, she's a very brave and determined woman. If it were me, I probably wouldn't have the courage to make such a bold decision."
At this moment, Seb held Susan's hand and smiled. "You have me, that's enough. You don't need any courage."
Susan smiled and then leaned her head on Seb's shoulder.
At Northstar City, the early spring weather was still very cold. Cecilia wrapped herself in her sweater, holding her books, and slowly walked out of the campus.
Today's sky was gray, and the gloomy weather matched the cloudiness in her heart.
Cecilia had tried everything but still couldn't come up with $104,000.
It was a huge amount for her. She thought even if she sold herself, she wouldn't be worth that much.
But thinking about her brother Quentin Thorne, who was already thirty, and her mother Rainey Ward's deeply wrinkled face, she couldn't help but feel her eyes well up.
Her father had passed away early, and Rainey had raised her and Quentin on her own. Quentin had even dropped out of school early to take on the family's responsibilities so she could continue her education.
Rainey was now chronically ill, and Quentin had a low-paying job. He had finally found a girl he loved, but her family insisted that without a house and money, she would marry someone else. Rainey had no choice but to call Cecilia for help.
Cecilia hated herself for being useless. Despite all her years of education, she still couldn't provide a good life for her family.
Lost in thought, Cecilia didn't notice the road ahead and almost bumped into someone.
"Sorry!" Cecilia apologized. As she looked up, she met a pair of cold eyes.
Seeing Daryl in a black suit in front of her, Cecilia was momentarily dazed.
She had met him a few months ago at this university. They were quickly attracted to each other and started a relationship.
However, after receiving Rainey's call, Cecilia thought it over and decided to break up with Daryl. Although she was very reluctant and loved him deeply, she couldn't ignore her frail and sickly mother, nor her brother Quentin, who had always shouldered the family's burdens. She didn't want to drag Daryl down, as she believed he was just an ordinary young man with a typical family background. Her family's burdens were too heavy and would only weigh him down.
"Daryl, you..." Cecilia's eyes met Daryl's cold gaze, and she couldn't help but feel hurt by his icy stare.
He had never looked at her like this before, and Cecilia felt deeply wounded.
The next moment, Daryl grabbed Cecilia's wrist and started walking away with her.
"What are you doing? Let go of me!" Cecilia saw the anger in Daryl's eyes and tried to break free, but his grip was too strong. She had no choice but to let him drag her along.
Daryl dragged Cecilia to a black luxury car, where a driver had already opened the back door for them.
"Whose car is this?" Cecilia was puzzled to see the extended Mercedes, thinking Daryl was just a poor student; so he couldn't possibly own such a luxurious car.
Daryl, with a cold expression, pushed Cecilia into the car and then got in himself.
Once Cecilia was seated, she noticed the car was already moving onto the road under the driver's control.
The next moment, Cecilia questioned Daryl, "Where are you taking me? What do you want?"
"You'll see," Daryl said, sitting upright, his cold eyes not even glancing at Cecilia.
"Stop the car!" Cecilia naturally resisted, and Daryl's demeanor today made her feel scared. He had always been gentle and courteous, and she didn't understand why he was acting this way today.
The next moment, Cecilia reached out to open the car door.
However, the door was already locked, and all her efforts were in vain.
"Daryl, tell him to stop the car, did you hear me?" After struggling for a while, Cecilia had no choice but to shout at Daryl.
Daryl completely ignored Cecilia, letting her shout without even giving her a glance.
After a long struggle, Cecilia's voice became hoarse. Realizing that it had no effect, she could only stare at Daryl with a piercing gaze.
She knew he was angry about the breakup, but she thought he wasn't the type to cling on. In her eyes, he had always been a gentle and polite man.
But today, the cold and sinister aura emanating from Daryl made her tremble involuntarily.
Soon, the car stopped in front of a garden villa with a distinct Euronia style.
The driver got out first and opened the door for Daryl.
Seeing this, Cecilia immediately opened the door on the other side and jumped out of the car.
Just as Cecilia was about to run away, Daryl was already standing in front of her, blocking her path.
Cecilia, now agitated, said, "Daryl, I already broke up with you. We have nothing to do with each other anymore."
Before Cecilia could finish her sentence, Daryl grabbed her wrist and dragged her into the villa.
"What are you doing? Let go of me, did you hear me?" Cecilia kept resisting, but her strength was no match for Daryl's.
Daryl dragged Cecilia all the way to the master bedroom on the second floor of the villa and threw her onto an exquisitely crafted bed.
Lying on the bed, Cecilia looked around and found that the villa was not only luxuriously decorated but also furnished with high-end appliances, many of which she, a girl from a poor family, had never seen before.
"Daryl, what is this place? Why did you bring me here?" Cecilia asked, lying on the bed.
At this moment, Daryl suddenly sneered. "Didn't you want to find a rich man? Now I'm letting you live in a luxury villa, ride in a luxury car, and enjoy the wealthy life. You should be satisfied, right?"
"What are you talking about?" Daryl's questioning made Cecilia frown.
The next moment, Daryl stepped forward and grabbed Cecilia's wrist.
