Divorce Clock Ticking (Kenneth and Angela)

Just when Angela felt exhausted, there was a sudden hurt on her arm. When she saw the injection syringe, she reached out to pull it out with a cold face. However, half of the drug had already been injected into her body. She used her last strength to inject the remaining half of the drug into the man's body and fell. When Kenneth and his people arrived, he saw Angela lying on the ground, covered in blood.

He frowned, saying in a dangerous voice, "Catch them all."

Peter saw Angela fall, and before he could even feel relieved, he noticed a group of well-dressed men suddenly appearing around him, swiftly subduing all of his henchmen.

The moment he saw the man in the wheelchair, he panicked.

"Mr. Sinclair... Why are you here?"

Kenneth didn't even look at Peter. With Kevin's help, he carefully held Angela in his arms.

"Call the doctor over."

Seeing the injuries on Angela's body and the slap marks on her face, Kenneth's eyes filled with rage.

He looked at Peter coldly as if looking at a dead man.

"You slapped her?"

Looking at Kenneth's cold face, Peter dared not admit it and quickly shook his head. "No...I didn't..." Kenneth sneered, "I gave you a chance, but you refused to talk. It's alright. You'll never talk again."

As he finished speaking, his subordinate walked up to Peter, grabbed his chin, and raised the knife.

The next second, Peter fell and moaned in pain, but he couldn't say a word.

Fear was in his eyes. He rolled on the ground in pain and crawled to Kenneth to beg for mercy, but Kenneth looked away indifferently.

"Mr. Sinclair, what should we do with these people?"

"An eye for an eye. Let them suffer the pain Angela just endured." Kenneth's voice was cold.

"What about Mr. Wilson?"

"Kill him."

*****

It was two days later when Angela woke up.

Finding herself in the bedroom of the villa, she immediately understood that seeing Kenneth before she fell into a coma was not an illusion. He had come and saved her. Angela pressed her lips with mixed feelings.

She wanted to make a clean break with Kenneth, but now, she owed him a big favor.

When Angela was upset, the bedroom door was pushed open.

Kenneth slowly approached Angela in his wheelchair with a bowl of beef stew.

Angela's heart skipped a few beats when she saw him.

She bit her lower lip and whispered, "Thank you for saving me, Mr. Sinclair."

Kenneth stopped at the bedside and handed her the beef stew in his hand. "Eat it. The drug Peter inserted you before was very poisonous and caused a physical deficit. You need to rest for a while."

"Thanks."

Angela took the beef stew, lowered her head, and ate it slowly. For a while, neither of them spoke.

It wasn't until Angela finished eating that Kenneth said calmly, "It's dangerous for you to live alone. You'd better to move back."

Angela remained silent for a few seconds, then looked up at Kenneth and said, "No need. It was an accident this time, and after we get divorced, I will live alone."

Kenneth frowned. A look of displeasure flashed across his eyes.

"Move back first, and then leave when we are divorced."

He had a strong attitude and gave Angela no room to refuse.

Thinking that Kenneth had just saved her and that her current physical condition was inconvenient for her to live alone, Angela nodded and said, "I will live here until I get better. After I get better, I will move out."

Kenneth's eyes were a bit cold. He didn't speak. Obviously, he didn't agree.

"By the way, where is Peter now?" Angela asked.

Kenneth said, "He's dead."

Surprised, Angela looked at Kenneth and asked, "You killed him?"

"No. Peter accidentally fell down the mountain while escaping. When my people found his body, it had been bitten by wild beasts and was mutilated beyond recognition."

Even if Peter had escaped, Kenneth wouldn't let him live.

Angela nodded. "Frank was an accomplice."

"After Peter died, Frank was guilty and turned himself in."

After saying that, Kenneth said doubtfully, "You are just a common employee of the Empyria Group. Why did Peter and Frank have to go to all the trouble to catch you?"

Angela pressed her lips and lowered her gaze, saying, "Frank wanted to sign a contract with Peter before, so he asked me to go to Peter to sign it. However, Peter forced me to share a casting couch with him.

I refused and beat him up. He has borne me a grudge ever since that matter and discussed with Frank to kidnap me."

Her explanation didn't dispel Kenneth's suspicion. "If so, Peter could ask Frank to fire you. Isn't it an easier way to kick you out of the Empyria Group? Besides, he didn't need to involve Frank in the kidnapping."

Angela rubbed her temples and frowned, "Have you forgotten that Brenda and I are good friends? Even if Frank wanted to fire me, Brenda would not agree.

"As for Peter involving Frank in the kidnapping... He is just crazy. Nobody knows what's on his mind!"

Kenneth's eyes became a bit gloomy, but he didn't ask any more questions.

"Have a good rest. I'll work in the study. Call me if you need anything."

"Um."

After Kenneth left, Angela was relieved.

In the afternoon, Brenda came to see Angela.

Knowing she recovered well, Brenda finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"The news that you were kidnapped gave me a nasty shock. Fortunately, you are okay. Otherwise, I would not spare Frank and Peter."

Angela smiled, "I'm fine. Don't make a fuss."

"You said that I'm making a fuss! If it weren't for Kenneth's help this time, you might have..."

Tears suddenly welled up in Brenda's eyes as she said, and she didn't say anymore.

Angela was moved. "Come on, I won't coax you if you shed tears."

Brenda rolled her eyes at her and snorted, "I'm not going to cry, okay? Humph!"

"Okay, okay. You won't cry. I just want to shed tears."

Brenda wiped her tears and took a document from her bag. "What will you do with this contract? If it is handed over to the police, Frank will spend the rest of his life in prison." Angela said after a brief silence, "Destroy it. I don't want others to know that I am the president of the Empyria Group."

Brenda asked, "Are you afraid that Kenneth will share your property if he knows this?"

"He should be the one to afraid that I will share his property. We will get divorced, and I don't want to raise new issues."

Thinking of Kenneth, Angela suddenly felt an indescribable emotion, which made her frown unconsciously.

Knowing that he had saved her, she could feel that her determination to divorce was not as firm as before.

But if Angela continued to be with him, she would become the pathetic herself as before. She would never let such a thing happen.

Brenda accompanied Angela for a while and then left with the contract.

Angela rested for a few days, and the police visited her several times for routine inquiry.

For the last visit, the police looked at her and said before leaving, "Ms. Lewis, Frank Black wants to see you."
