“Every single thing Judy said was directed at Christina, and it seemed that she wanted to mislead me into thinking that Christina had pushed my mom.”Judy did not see for herself what had happened, yet she was confident that Christina was behind this. Something seemed off, and the only explanation was that Judy wanted to cover up the truth by lying to Michael. Logan noticed that too, but he was still unsure of it. “Perhaps she was just guessing and merely told us her speculations. She probably didn’t have bad intentions toward Miss Williams.”It would be fine if Judy did not watch what she said if it had been a minor injury, but this incident could cost his mother’s life, and she knew perfectly the gravity of the issue. If she went on and defamed someone despite this, then something very wrong must have happened.“I initially thought that she had made such absurd remarks about Christina because she was worried about my mom. However, I noticed that my mom hasn’t been treating her w
“That would be fine. I’ve already hired two nurses to look after her in the hospital ward. They’ll be there day and night.” Michael was suspicious of Judy and would never let her go near his mother’s ward. “How is that okay? Outsiders don’t understand the Old Madam’s habits. I should go there. Since the Old Madam is hospitalized, I have nothing much to do at home too.”Judy was genuine in her words and pretended to be a loyal employee as she insisted on going to the hospital to take care of Heather.“I know that you mean well, but the doctor said that my mom’s in critical condition now. What she needs are professional nurses and not normal civilians like us.”He sighed and tiredness began to show on his face. “I’ve already taken care of things for my mom, so you really shouldn’t worry about it. Moreover, I usually stay at the company, and someone should look after my house. I think that you’re the perfect candidate.”It was obvious that he was bestowing onto her an important task
“I understand Michael’s pain. I was pissed back then too, but after giving it some thought, I realized that I’ll do just the same.”“Unbelievable. How are you still taking his side?” Ariel was disappointed in her friend. “I don’t even know how to talk you out of this. I can’t believe that you’re still talking good about him after Larson had treated you that way. Do you want him to bully you more?”“This isn’t a small issue. We’re talking about a life here.” Christina reminded Ariel. “Things won’t be such a big deal if Heather fell on her own, but I don’t think that’s the case here.”“Yeah, I think the same too,” Matthew interrupted. “I can’t be sure for the others, but I’ll never believe that Heather would do such a thing. She’d never place saffron in Christina’s soup.”“Perhaps that witch wanted to ruin Michael and Christina’s relationship completely.” Ariel still stood by what she said.“No way. Heather would never do anything to hurt her grandchildren. There’s no reason for her
After obtaining this clue, Michael told his men to keep an eye on the matter. He also ordered them to track Winona’s trail from the surveillance cameras outside the Larson villa. The surveillance cameras showed that Winona did not leave her home alone. There was another person in her car, and the unidentified person had covered up so much that it was impossible to see if it had been a man or a woman.After Winona drove away from the villa, the figure appeared once again in the car, and it was impossible to see who it was. Eventually, the car stopped at a corner, and the mysterious person left the car in a rush.All the surveillance footage in the villa had been destroyed, but the nearest camera outside the villa suggested that Winona had brought that person there. There must be a reason that she had kept this a secret from them.As the villa’s security guard knew that Winona and Heather were good friends, he did not check their car and let her get away with it.Electricity was st
It was Michael who personally assigned those bodyguards. Even though Winona was a doctor, she could not enter Heather’s ward either. The bodyguards had long since informed Michael about Winona’s reaction. Michael laughed coldly upon learning it. Winona was indeed cruel. How dare she harm his mother despite having been friends with her for years! Since Michael had yet to identify the person who hid in Winona’s car, he could not alert Winona to the matter for the time being. Once the person was caught, he would definitely make those evil people pay the price.Michael had asked someone to keep a watchful eye on the worker who broke the cable, and immediately report the worker’s activity to him.As usual, that worker went to work and got off work the following week. He knocked around the casino occasionally but was not in contact with anyone suspicious. With that, no clues were detected for the time being.A few days later, the person who stalked the worker realized that the worker
Davis returned home with a sense of restlessness. When Mary caught sight of his uneasy expression, she found it strange. “Brother, what’s wrong with you?” “Nothing much…” Davis answered with a stammer.As much as Mary was curious, she could not do anything to force Davis to tell her. She then poured a glass of water for him. “Brother, Sophia is coming to the beauty salon tomorrow.”“Did she inform you by phone?”“Yeah. She asked you to be there early as she has something urgent to discuss with you.” Mary gazed anxiously at Davis. “Brother, I’m sure that woman is coming to look for you because something bad has happened. Just hide if you can.” “I may be able to hide for now, but I can’t hide forever.” Davis sighed.Sophia did not dare to meet Winona during this period as she was afraid that Michael would find out about it. She only talked to Winona on the phone.The doctor said that there was very little likelihood of Heather being conscious. At the same time, the doctor could
“Damn it!” Christina hated Sophia to the core. That woman was not only immoral but also ruthless. How dare she commit such a despicable act!“Let’s call the police to send her to jail!”Michael shook his head, thinking that it was not worth it to send her to jail. He would not let her get away with it just like that.“Now that she did something wrong, she has to pay the price. I want her to have a taste of the disaster!” Ever since Heather was admitted to the hospital, Michael was overcome with anxiety and exhaustion. He would not leave those murderers at ease out there.He wanted to get revenge for all the bad things they had done so that they would get to experience how it felt like being trapped. To prevent Sophia from hurting Christina, Michael designated a bodyguard for Christina and reminded her to be careful.Christina felt uncomfortable about having a bodyguard following her every day. However, Michael was insistent that she brought the bodyguard along wherever she wen
Michael claimed that Sophia had sought out Davis with the purpose of plotting to hurt Heather. However, Matthew claimed that Sophia cheated on John and cuckolded him by having an affair with Davis. Which one was actually true? Ariel flew into a rage after hearing it. “Sure enough, that old woman has gone over the line. I knew she’d go to the beauty salon to do unspeakable businesses. It turned out that she’s really having an affair with that hooligan. Let’s inform John about it right away and expose the true colors of the mayoress!”“No way!” Christina stopped Ariel as Michael had told her not to raise the alarm. If they did so, it would ruin Michael’s plan. “Well, we must get the stolen goods before we catch a thief. We don’t have any evidence suggesting that Sophia was together with that man, so it’s difficult to convince people of the news.”“Are you afraid that John won’t believe it?” Ariel laughed coldly. “Men despise being cuckolded. Once John has heard the news, he definit
