Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 1004

After Hillary got up the following morning, she went to a coffee shop to hang out with her best friend, Cindy Gray.

She had no intention of staying at home even for an extra minute.

Winson, Lina and Cara were all having breakfast together at the dining table early in the morning.

Hillary did not even bother to greet nor even glance at them as she walked directly out the door by the dining table.

Winson was displeased as he exclaimed with a bitter look, "Just what kind of an attitude are you showing us first thing in the morning, young lady. How could you just leave without greeting us!"

Hillary coldly exclaimed, "Morning."

She was brushing him off completely.

"You!"

When Lina noticed Winson's boiling rage, she reached out to gently pat the back of his hand while hinting at him with her gaze to not ruin their plans by getting angry.

Lina then spoke with a gentle tone, "Where are you heading off to this early in the morning, Hillary?"

Hillary replied, "Should I report my whereabouts to you?"

Lina maintained her warm smile as she said, "Even if you're heading out, you should still at least sit down and have some breakfast too, you know. Although you're still young, skipping breakfast will still be bad for your stomach."

Cara could no longer listen as she pouted her lips and said, "Stop nagging at her, mom. She'll be ungrateful for your kindness anyway."

Hillary headed straight out without looking back once.

Lina reminded her, "Hey! Hillary, we're going to have dinner tonight, so get home earlier. Your father will be bringing both you and Cara to visit your uncles!"

Lina exclaimed in a worried tone after Hillary left, "I'm not sure if she'll actually come home earlier tonight."

…

Cindy was Hillary's high school friend and the duo shared an extremely close bond.

Cindy chose a regular coffee shop to hang out at.

Cindy greeted Hillary with a huge smile when she noticed her arrival as she said, "Whoa, the study genius is here. Congratulations, Hillary for receiving an offer letter from Oxford University."

Hillary rolled her eyes at her as she spoke with a sigh, "What does it matter if I've gotten an offer letter from Oxford? It's not like I'm a hundred percent certain that I can go anyway."

Cindy asked with a puzzled tone, "Why aren't you going when you've already been accepted?"

"My dad will never allow me to study abroad anyway."

Cindy was furious when she heard that as she exclaimed, "Could it be due to that evil b*tch?"

Hillary shook her head and seemed a little mentally exhausted as she said, "I don't know. Even if it was her doing, my dad still has to agree to it anyway. However, regardless of whose decision it was, it's all the same to me."

Cindy asked, "Are you really not going to do anything about it?"

Hillary raised her head and looked at Cindy before biting her lips. She was unsure if she should tell Cindy about what Shayne had previously said to her since she had no idea where to start anyway. Hillary then said, "Cindy, if you find out that I've stooped to extreme levels to reach my goals and in turn did things that you'd look down on me for, will you think what I did was wrong?"

Cindy stared at her with a funny look as she teased, "You wouldn't have done that for your tuition fees now, would you?"

Hillary was speechless.

Hillary had nearly told her that it was close to what she had thought.

Cindy said, "Hillary, I trust you. I'll support you no matter what choices you make. Look, if you're stressing out about the tuition fees, I can ask my mother for my allowance although you might have to be frugal to support your expenses abroad."

Hillary chuckled and said, "Thank you, Cindy. Truly."

"Hey, we're best friends. What is there to thank me for when I didn't exactly help you with anything. However, when I finally get a job after I graduate from university, I'll have money and that way, I'll have no problem paying for your living!"

Hillary picked up her glass of orange juice and clinked it against Cindy's glass as she spoke with a laugh, "All hail Cindy."

…

Hillary returned home late at night again.

However, she noticed a guest sitting on the couch in the living room when she entered.

It seemed Winson had changed his attitude toward her recently. He cracked a delightful smile before waving at her as he said, "Come over here, Hillary. This is my friend, President Lewis."

Hillary nodded her head at President Lewis politely as she greeted him, "Greetings, Uncle Lewis."

President Lewis was experiencing a mid-life crisis. He had a beer belly with a receding hairline while his face looked extremely oily. He was staring at Hillary with a creepily lustful gaze as he spoke with a smile, "Why are you still calling me, Uncle Lewis? Oh Hillary, don't think for a second that I'm just a regular old man. I go out on business trips all the time and my heart is still youthful!"

Hillary scoffed and thought to herself, 'Goddamn creep!'

Winson said, "Oh Hillary, you know, President Lewis is a pretty impressive man. Although he's only in his forties, he has amassed over a few hundred million bucks in wealth. You should really learn from him!"

Hillary nodded obediently as she spoke in a calm tone, "I'm going to study now, dad so I can be just like Uncle Lewis to have a net wealth of over a couple million bucks."

Winson exclaimed, "You…"

Hillary then turned around and headed straight upstairs.

Winson immediately apologized to President Lewis, "I'm terribly sorry, President Lewis. My daughter has been spoiled rotten by me, so she has developed quite the temper. Please forgive her immaturity, President Lewis."

President Lewis' gaze had been focused on Hillary's beautiful and slender back the entire time as he left a seemingly charming praise, "Beautiful people will often have quite the personality. It'll be boring if they don't. Man, Winson, your daughter has quite the body and her appearance is truly stunning. Well, the only problem is her young age. Hahaha."

Lina jokingly teased, "Oh, you men will still complain about the woman's age being too young. Wow, you guys surely can be picky when it comes to women!"

President Lewis laughed lustfully while pointing at Lina as he said, "Oh, please Madam Jacob, you're too mean now. I actually prefer a woman's personality and age isn't a problem to me. I'm not picky when it comes to that!"

'Hmph, you obviously won't be picky since the girl is only eighteen anyway.'

Winson asked, "So, President Lewis, do you really like my daughter?"

President Lewis replied, "She's not bad. Not bad at all."

Before President Lewis left, he patted Winson's shoulder while standing beside his car as he spoke in a long winded tone, "If you were to agree to this arranged marriage by having Hillary marry me, I'd give this much money to your family."

President Lewis raised his palm in front of Winson.

"Five hundred thousand bucks?"

"Five million."

…

President Lewis immediately pounced on her.

Hillary desperately tried to cling onto her conscious mind as she dodged out of President Lewis' way. However, President Lewis' smile grew more sinister when he missed her.

President Lewis was like a worm that was crawling up to her. Hillary was extremely disgusted by him as she reached out to hit and punch him.

However, it seemed that her struggles had only aroused President Lewis as he said, "Don't you scream now, Hillary. Let me tell you this, your parents already locked the door and tonight will be the night we copulate to our hearts content here in your house!"

Hillary looked pale as hearing those words only made her feel incredibly nauseous.

Although President Lewis was a disgusting man, her father, Winson was significantly worse!

Hillary never expected that as much as her own biological father disliked or was unfair to her, he would actually allow a filthy fat middle-aged man to rape her.

Hillary scoffed coldly as it seemed she had completely underestimated just how vile of a person Winson was.

Hillary was pushed onto the bed by President Lewis as she stared directly at the door while she swore in her heart, 'As long as I still breathe, I will repay this humiliation that I received today a hundred to a thousand folds more!'

As Hillary clung onto the last strands of her conscious mind, she felt for her army knife underneath her pillow.

Indeed, this knife was kept as a tool to defend herself.

After her mother's death, she had been on constant guard against everyone in the Jacob family.

This army knife was the only gift she received from her mother before her death.

Her mother had once told her with tears in her eyes, "Oh my dear Hillary, I'm no longer able to stay by your side to protect you nor can I watch you grow up anymore. You'll need to learn to protect yourself in the future, okay."

Hillary closed her eyes while her tears fell off from the corners of her eyes and onto her hair.

She pulled out her knife and brutally stabbed President Lewis' shoulder who was on top of her!

President Lewis cried out in pain instantly as he let out an agonizing shriek!

President Lewis grabbed onto the sharp pain that was emanating from his shoulder. The instant he felt his shoulder, his entire palm was soaked in blood. This terrified him completely.

"You, you, you… You dare... you actually dare to stab me with a knife!"

Hillary was breathing heavily while she held onto her blood stained knife as her entire forehead was drenched in sweat.

Just as President Lewis was about to approach closer to her, Hillary pointed the knife at him before threatening him with a cold tone, "If you dare get even an inch closer to me, I will murder you!"

President Lewis called out for help, "Ah! Help! Hurry up and open this door!"

"Thud, thud, thud!"

President Lewis was forcefully banging on the door.

Both Winson and Lina felt that something was wrong when they heard his screams as they immediately unlocked the door.

However, the instant the door opened, Hillary rushed out with her blood stained knife.

President Lewis on the other hand had collapsed by the door while he pointed at Winson with his trembling hands, "You... your daughter was actually going to murder me!"

Both Winson and Lina were completely terrified when they noticed the blood stains on President Lewis' shoulder.
