Wendy was not happy about the fact that she had been abandoned, so she stalked Serena every day. Eventually, having had enough of it, Serena started to threaten Wendy and her family members. She was determined to get Wendy off her back.Wendy felt very uncomfortable as she thought of all the things she had done and troubles she had gotten into for Serena over the years, and the idea of revenge popped up in her head.Just when she was at the lowest point of her life, a beautiful lady found her and paid her a handsome sum in return for her to expose what Serena had done. Wendy was initially afraid that Serena might take her revenge back on her and hence did not have the guts to do so. However, when she saw how much money she was offered, she changed her mind.Without Serena, Wendy could always find another rich family and leech off their riches. She could still be as respectable as she had been in the past.After Wendy had accepted the money, she followed this missus around and att

John let out a snort. “What menopause? You must’ve done something to offend her. Didn’t I tell you to watch what you’re saying when you socialize with the wives?

Of course, Heather did not know the woman’s part in this incident. Treating Winona as her best friend, Heather was under the impression that they were both deceived by Serena, so she showed Winona the video she had just received“Look, I even received this before Madam Parker told me all this stuff.”Winona was taken aback by the video as she thought who on earth would plan to trick Serena? Despite feeling surprised, she did not betray it. Instead, she tried to explain the matter to Heather to keep her from doubting it.“Serena’s been feeling down after Christina hit her. According to the doctor, she might have been traumatized. Sophia also said that Serena has been acting out of character these days, often throwing a tantrum like a maniac. When Serena returned to normal, Sophia asked her what happened and Serena’s answer seemed like she was having hallucinations which are likely to happen only when she feels out of control.” ‘Hallucination and mania? Aren’t these characteristics

“Someone must have exposed it. Think of a solution to this issue now. If Heather finds out about other stuff, we’ll be in danger.”Sophia’s expression was frighteningly grim.Since someone had secretly exposed the dirt on Serena and even other affairs associated with her this time, immediate action was needed to solve this issue. “What’s the matter, Mom?” Serena was shocked to discover Sophia’s grim look.“Madam Parker visited Heather and said a lot of unpleasant remarks about us,” Sophia briefly explained the matter.Serena did not step out of the house all this while. She simply stayed at home to take care of the baby in her belly. All she hoped for was to gain power through her son so that she could successfully turn from a peasant into a princess.Upon receiving such news out of the blue, Serena panicked. “Mom, what should I do? You told me that everything would be alright as long as I please Heather, but she’s starting to hate me now. What should I do?” “Don’t panic. You’

Michael initially did not plan to tell Heather what had happened, but seeing that Heather had lost her senses, he flew into a rage. He then tossed the recorder, which consisted of Wendy’s remarks about Serena, to her.With a sneer, Michael told Heather that someone resented Wendy for telling the truth and consequently crippled her legs. He also added that Sophia had developed close ties with some hooligans in Hoover Alley before she married John, so he believed that Sophia had evil intentions. Heather was shocked to hear the recording, and only then did she understand that someone was trying to take revenge on Wendy. If Wendy’s words were false, Sophia and Serena could have sued Wendy to defend themselves, rather than plot against her. By the look of things, what Wendy said was indeed true. Not only were Sophia and Serene evil, but they also had connections with both good and evil sides. At this point, Heather hated Serena to the core.Loving someone did not require a reason, and

Christina had no idea why Heather’s attitude had changed all of a sudden. Even so, she could not possibly accept her request just like that.“Old Madam Larson, I’ll take good care of my child. As for reconciliation, it depends on fate, and Michael and I are no longer fated to be together.”Christina’s rejection made Heather feel worse for all she had done back then. “Michael can’t stop thinking about you, Christina. It’s my fault that I ruined your relationship. I’m begging you to forgive Michael.” To Christina’s great surprise, Heather actually humbled herself to beg her. After all, Heather was Christina’s senior, yet she still unexpectedly lowered her head willingly and apologized to Christina. “Let bygones be bygones, Old Madam Larson. I made mistakes too since I used to hit you in the past. I hope that you can forgive me too.”Christina spoke in an impersonal manner the entire time to give Heather no chance to get closer. Plainly, Christina was very alert to her. Heather

Michael left the house cheerfully. Looking at the smile on her son’s face, Heather suddenly realized that it was the first time in a few years that she saw such a cheery smile on his face. She sighed, wondering why she was so narrow-minded back then. If she had come around earlier, her son would not have lived in misery for so many years.Heather and Michael were in high spirits, while Judy began to feel nervous as Heather had become less reliant on her. Today, Heather went out without bringing her along, and as such, Judy did not know why she went out. Judy then wanted to find out the reason when Heather came back, but Michael happened to come back at that time too. She hid at one corner and eavesdropped on his conversation with Heather. Upon hearing that Heather had begged Christina to reconcile with Michael, Judy was worried for Serena. Judy was well aware of her purpose in staying at the Larson family’s house. She felt the need to inform Sophia about the issue so that she co

Besides, even if the plan failed, intentionally causing a pregnant woman to miscarry was not considered homicide by the country’s criminal law.

“Just a little while ago.” Sean came closer. “Christina, we need to talk.”She nodded and followed him to the garden. He helped her to get comfortable on the bench. “Do you believe in fate?”She shook her head, unsure where this was leading. “I didn’t either as I’m a firm believer that hard work always pays off. But now I do.”He looked her in the eye. “I’ve been lost and struggled a lot since that incident, unsure how to face you. After considering this seriously for the past few days, I’ve finally mustered enough courage to meet you again.”A sigh escaped her lips. “Sorry, Sean. It’s all my fault.”“No! It has nothing to do with you, Christina. It’s my fault that my love is not strong enough. I discovered that Suzy is really great after spending the past few months with her. She’s just like you. She’s gentle, kind, pure, and adorable. I realized I’ve fallen in love with her.”This was not what he really thought.He loved Christina since the beginning of time and believed he

“That’s old history. We think Michael is actually pretty good.”“We? Who do you mean?” Christina teased.Ariel and Matthew had been spending a lot of time together lately. Christina went through that herself and understood the passion in her friend’s eyes. This silly girl was actually in love. She could not be happier for her.“Who else? Matthew, of course!” Ariel glared at Christina.“I say whatever’s on my mind, unlike you, who always keep everything to yourself and get stuck in dilemmas. Every good opportunity slips past you because of your indecisiveness!” “How can I not be? I promised to marry him but I’m now trying to convince him to marry someone else. Is this really the best thing for him? Will he be happy?”Ariel questioned after a brief silence, “Christina, let me ask you this. Who do you care for more? Michael or Sean?”Christina asked herself the same question too. She naturally cared more about Michael in the past, but she also started to develop a strong feeling f

The following morning, Serena hurried to the police station to file a report.The police treated this with high importance and warned her to be careful of Darren Cain as he was a vicious gang member who had served over a decade in prison.She became more frightened after hearing that. Immediately, she moved out of that house and rented a place somewhere quiet. As she was terrified, she stayed indoors for the next few days.Much of Christina’s stress was relieved without having to deal with Serena’s pestering.“Christina, John was at the last stage of cancer. It was lucky enough that he lasted until he did. This is his fate, so try not to get too upset.” Francis comforted the dispirited woman. It did not make any difference even though he was not the real Francis. He had long adapted to the identity after assuming it for so many years. Most importantly, Christina was still willing to treat him like a real uncle even after finding out the truth.“Don’t worry, Uncle, I’m fine.”

Otherwise, she would report John to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission for private corruption.If reported, the antique art collection would be seized and no one could get it!Christina became more frustrated after hearing that.She never expected John’s leniency toward Serena would cause her such a big problem. Matthew was infuriated by Serena’s unreasonable behavior. He suggested they could shut the woman up by teaching her a lesson. Sean shook his head. “That’s not going to solve the problem. Serena must’ve come prepared if she dares to stir up trouble. This is a lawful society. We can’t do as we wish.”“Are we actually going to pay her off then?” Ariel asked, “I think giving her money isn’t going to put an end to this. She’s certainly going to keep threatening for more!”Michael scoffed. “Why should we give her money? She can go

“I will, Dad, don’t worry. I’ll listen to Sister,” Suzy replied.“Christina.” John grabbed Christina’s hand in his own. “My greatest regret in this life is failing to take good care of you and your mother. I’m going to meet your mother soon. I hope she’ll forgive me!”Tears rolled down Christina’s cheeks. Men would speak kindly in the presence of death. She was unsure if Molly would forgive him, but she had long forgiven her father.He strained to pull Suzy and Christina’s hands closer together as he looked at them with pleading eyes. “The both of you must live peacefully together. Suzy, listen to your sister, and Christina, you must take good care of her on my behalf.”Christina looked at Suzy before nodding quietly. Then, John shifted his glance to Michael.“I’ve done many wrongs in this life. I betrayed my wife and disappointed my daughter. I hope you’ll do better than me. I’ll hand over Christina to you now. I’ll come back to haunt you as a stubborn ghost if you dare to wr

He knew Christina too well after all the years they spent together. She was a soft-hearted person behind her stubborn facade. Seeing others in sorrow was her greatest weakness.There was no doubt she would choose to forgive Suzy and accept her as her sister.If that was the case, then the marriage between them was destined to fail.
