The limousine was parked at the harbor, where a huge yacht was parked there. When Josephine got out of the car, Reginald stepped forward, took her hand and embraced her shoulder. They slowly walked up to the yacht.
There was a big auction party going on here.
When Reginald appeared with Josephine in his arms and the twins held by Regan standing behind him, the celebrities and reporters who were drinking on the deck immediately came forward to greet them.
Everyone who saw Josephine was stunned with a sharp intake of breath and recovered quickly when they noticed the threat in Reginald’s eyes. Then they continued to fawn over them without a break.
Josephine had attended all sorts of large and small dinner parties abroad for Aaron in the past three years, so she was used to it. She kept an indifferent expression and did not say a single word.
“Ahh” A loud sound immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
They saw a woman in a long Strapless dress, and she was stunned with her eyes wide open. She uttered, “Jo… Josephine?!”
When Josephine frowned and looked over, she saw Aurelia’s incredulous expression. Aurelia hadn’t met Josephine for three years, but she found Josephine even more beautiful than before. However, Josephine had obviously lost a lot of weight and was slightly sunken.
“Why? What are you doing here? Bitch, why did you come back?”
Suddenly, people in the crowd began whispering to each other.
Josephine gritted her teeth and stared at Aurelia, whose face was distorted by anger and shock. Before she spoke, a strong wind swept by her side. Then Aurelia was kicked away by Reginald and fell onto the ground. She covered her stomach and cried sadly.
“Reginald…”
“Shut up!”
Reginald looked at her fiercely. He looked furious and said, “Don’t call my name. Now get out of here. I don’t want to see you!”
As soon as he finished his words, the bodyguards at the venue came forward and dragged Aurelia away. Reginald took Josephine’s hands again and walked inside the hall. He did not even look at Aurelia any more.
Josephine didn’t know why Reginald brought her here.
The auction had actually been held a week ago, and this party was just held by the organizers to thank all the bidders, and it meant nothing to Josephine.
Reginald was surrounded by several famous entrepreneurs talking about business. Josephine felt so bored standing aside and was thinking of how to find an excuse to be with the twins who were brought to the lounge to play by Regan. Then suddenly all the lights in the banquet hall were off, and the hall turned dark immediately.
After a commotion, the projector in the middle of the banquet hall suddenly lit up, and Aurelia appeared on the screen holding a gun in her hand. She laughed and held the camera toward the twins tied together on the deck. She said, “Josephine, come to the deck alone now. Don’t call the police; otherwise, you will see the consequences!”
The screen was suddenly turned off.
Josephine’s face turned pale and she rushed straight to the deck without thinking. Reginald pulled her back. She was so anxious and nervous that she could hardly walk, so Reginald helped her onto the deck.
Her twins were tied to the railing. One end of the rope was in Aurelia’s hand, and she had a gun in the other hand.
Josephine almost fell onto the ground because her legs suddenly became weak.
“You’re here.”
Aurelia looked at them coldly with a cruel smile.
“What the hell do you want? Let my babies go. They’re so young. How can you do that? ”
Josephine’s whole body was shaking and she shouted out in a trembling voice.
“What do I want?” Aurelia coldly laughed out, and the muzzle of her gun suddenly turned to Josephine. There was a horrific expression showing the killing intent on her face. ”I want you dead!
Josephine, you should have died three years ago. It was because of you that I was abandoned by Reginald, and that Cooke Family went bankrupt.
You’re just the daughter of a gambler. The Cooke Family has raised you for so many years and you even repaid us like that. Why don’t you go to hell?”
“Damn you! If you say another single word, I’ll kill you right now!”
Reginald glared at her and roared out. There was killing intent in his black eyes, “You planned everything and set me up. It’s your fault. I should have killed you in the first place!”
“Yes…” Aurelia smile wryly, and there were tears in her eyes, “It’s my fault, but who am I doing all this for? It’s all for you, Reginald! I love you, but you ruin me. Do you know how Ralphy treats me even though I’m married him? I have to be raped every single day and night as long as he wants. I’ve been by your side for so long. How can you treat me like that?”
“Release my children!”
Reginald’ voice was unrelenting. He would like to rush up immediately and cut Aurelia into pieces. How dared she kidnap his children? She was courting death!
“No way!” Aurelia shouted excitedly, “I went to great lengths to become your lover. Undoubtedly, you love me, and you hate Josephine so much that you even don’t want to cast a glance at her. But now you’re with her in front of me as a sweet family of four. Reginald, do you sleep with her for sexual needs? Or do you get a mental disorder? Why do you choose her, not me?”
When Josephine heard her words, she couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Reginald. What Aurelia asked was also what she wanted to know.
“Because you’re not her!”
Reginald said coldly without hesitation, “Because she’s the only woman in this world who I can’t forget for three whole years. I’ve been thinking about her all the time and she’s the first woman I want to get back to. I’ve done everything for her, and I want no one but her!”
It was late at night. The ocean wind blew up like a knife cutting on everyone’s face.
