Chapter 29
The Foster family was brightly lit throughout the night.
Sarah sat anxiously on the sofa, her nails digging deeply into her palms, drawing blood, but she seemed not to notice, her gaze fixed on the clock on the wall.
She watched helplessly as the clock's hands moved from midnight to seven in the morning.
At the exact moment the clock struck the hour, hurried footsteps approached from the hallway.
Daniel's eyes were pitch black, filled with hostility, making Sarah's scalp tingle. Coldness spread from her feet and engulfed her entire body.
Daniel took the long whip from the servant's hands and walked towards her step by step.
"Sarah, do you know that Emily and the baby almost didn't make it?"noveldrama
A baby?
Emily was pregnant?
After the initial shock, Sarah quickly came to her senses.
Yes, in the previous life, Emily had been pregnant around this time too.
In this life, after Sarah pushed Emily onto Daniel as the antidote, it was naturally Emily who was pregnant.
Before she could think further, seeing Daniel approaching with the intention of punishing her to defend Emily, Sarah suddenly felt her eyes redden. She tried to explain desperately,
"I didn't tamper with the wedding dress, and I never wanted to hurt her. From the kidnapping, to the mysterious love letters at the banquet, and now the wedding dress-don't you think something is suspicious? If I wanted to frame her, it wouldn't happen again and again, with each time being successful."
She thought that after speaking these words, the usually cautious Daniel would realize the suspiciousness of these
events.
But at this moment, consumed by rage, Daniel's voice was cold as ice.
"So you mean, it's Emily who's been framing you recently? I love her, and I'm marrying her. Why would she frame you for no reason?"
This was also something Sarah couldn't understand.
"I don't know..."
Just as she was halfway through her sentence, a cry of pain escaped her as Daniel's whip, which she hadn't noticed being raised, struck her harshly across her body.

"Sarah, you really are hopeless."
Sarah's face turned pale instantly, and a bitter smile tugged at her lips.
Emily was the one he held dear. How could she still hold any hope that he would believe her?
Instinctively, she tried to flee."
But the bodyguards behind her rushed up, pinning her firmly to the ground.
"Sarah, will you admit your mistake?"
With another lash of the whip, Daniel's voice was harsh and demanding.
Sarah trembled with pain, but her hands clenched tightly, refusing to make a sound.
""
Seeing she didn't respond, Daniel's whip struck her back again with even more force.
"I'll ask you again. Will you admit your mistake?"
But the girl on the ground kept her lips tightly shut, unwilling to speak.
She wasn't wrong! Why should she admit to something she didn't do?
Seeing her so stubborn, Daniel was genuinely enraged.
The whip in his hand fell repeatedly onto her back.
Soon, Sarah's back was a bloody mess, but she still refused to admit her mistake.
Finally, the butler, unable to bear it, stepped forward and grabbed the whip from Daniel's hand.
"Sir, if this continues, someone might die..."
Only then did Daniel stop, coldly tossing the whip aside.
"Sarah, don't let there be a next time!"
Sarah could no longer hold on; her head drooped, and she completely lost consciousness.
In the following days, Daniel didn't return home, and Sarah was left in a state where her back was too torn and bruised to get out of bed.
She lay in bed for several days to heal before she could finally get up and walk again.
On the day her injuries healed, she received a notification from the immigration office. her permanent residency had been processed.
Now that she had her permanent residency card, Sarah had no more reason to stay in the Foster family.
But just as she was about to leave, she unexpectedly ran into Daniel who had just returned home.

Before Sarah could react, Daniel coldly said, "What, planning to run away from home?"
Hearing his words, Sarah just felt exhausted.
She didn't know how many times she had to say it, that she truly no longer liked him, before he would believe her.
Seeing her remain silent, Daniel's expression darkened even further. Finally, he rubbed his forehead.
"Fine, if you want to go out to relax, then go. Recently, Emily's pregnancy has been unstable, and I'm busy preparing for the wedding. If you stay here, who knows what you might do to her."
After that, he took Sarah's luggage from her.
The car sped to the airport terminal. Just as Sarah was about to get out of the car, Daniel finally asked, "Where is your ticket to?"
Sarah's lips moved slightly, but before she could speak, he coldly added, "Just a few nearby cities, don't go too far. After Emily and I finish the wedding, I'll come and pick you up."
This time, Sarah didn't say anything more. She just obediently responded, "I understand."
After bidding him farewell, she carried her luggage and walked into the airport under his gaze.
It wasn't until she saw his figure disappear in the traffic that she pulled out her phone, silently blocked all of Daniel's numbers, and then walked straight to the boarding gate without hesitation.
'Pick me up? No. Daniel. I will never come back again.'
