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
“You’ve changed your mind too? Do you mean that you’re not planning to deal with the b*tchy women, Sophia and Serena?” Ariel was disappointed.“I’d consider letting Sophia off the hook if it was just a slip-up back then. However, it turned out that this was not the case.” Matthew scoffed. “Can you still remember the incident on the street the other day?”“Yeah.” Speaking of the incident, Ariel was rather embarrassed. “I’m sorry for the trouble that day.”“No, I’m not talking about this. Look there, doesn’t she seem familiar to you?” “Isn’t she the mistress who had an affair with the man that day?” Ariel could recognize the woman.“You have a good memory. Now, look over there.” Matthew pointed to the other side, and Ariel subsequently looked in that direction. She saw the man, who got beaten the other day, talking to his wife.“What’s going on? They’ve made up, huh?” Feeling puzzled, Ariel looked at the mistress who was a short distance away. She felt that the man should not have
Ariel and Matthew got into the car after they left the pub. In her typically impatient manner, Ariel asked, “Quickly tell me what happened.” “It’s about Christina’s mom,” Matthew told Ariel the story related to Molly, some of which he heard from his mother. “It must be Sophia who secretly messed with the incident and harmed Heather this time. She trapped Christina previously, and now she did it to you. That woman can actually do anything bad for her daughter’s sake! In this regard, it’s perfectly possible that she harmed Molly back then in order to become the mayoress.”“Gosh, how ruthless of her!” Matthew’s words left Ariel in shock.“All this time, Christina thought that her mom died of a car accident. If she knew that her mom was actually trapped, I can’t imagine how heartbroken she would be.”Matthew nodded. “Molly met Sophia at a cafe before she died. I’m sure they did not just have a casual chat. It must be Sophia who purposely provoked Molly and caused her to lose contro
Since Serena enjoyed putting on an act, Michael followed suit. At this thought, he took out a handkerchief and handed it to her.Serena was overjoyed as she did not expect Michael to be so kind toward her. She hurriedly took the handkerchief to wipe her tears, then continued to sob and comforted him. “Michael, don’t worry too much. They say a cat has nine lives. I believe Aunty Heather will be safe.”“How can I not worry? The doctor said this is my mom’s best state.”During the time when Heather was unconscious in the hospital, Winona and the gang frequently came to the hospital to ask about Heather’s condition. Knowing that they were frightened, Michael surely had to act well. “I don’t think so. Aunty Heather is such a nice person. She’ll be fine,” Serena restated. “Thanks for your kind words.” Michael sighed. After staring at Serena’s belly for a few seconds, he began to speak gently, “How many months have you been pregnant?”“Almost five months,” Serena replied.“Having suc
Although Benedict was just a chauffeur, exposing the incident would definitely have a negative impact on John, who served as a mayor. Other people would have the impression that Benedict followed the example set by his superior.“The person who bailed him out, he drove your car and claimed that he’s your chauffeur. The squad was worried that it would have a negative impact on you, so they agreed to grant him bail.”After some thought, the commissioner decided to be completely frank with him. “To tell the truth, I saw a bunch of people mingling together promiscuously when he was arrested. Additionally, there were drugs found in the private room. You’d better be careful. Make sure you’re not dragged into the incident.”John’s face turned grim as it was the first time he heard about it. “Thank you for informing me. I’ll deal with it.”After John left the police station, his face remained grim throughout the journey. He could not let Benedict work for him anymore. When he reached home,
Sophia contained her anger as she could not vent it on Judy there and then. After all, Judy had done so much for her throughout these years and knew many of her secrets.If Sophia got on Judy’s nerves, Judy might expose all the dirt on her and leave her in a lurch. At that point, Sophia did not have millions of dollars either. She perfunctorily told Judy that she would try to borrow from a friend and see if her friend could lend her the money.Serena too lost her cool when she heard about it. “Is that old woman treating us like an ATM? It’s nonsense for her to say that it’s possible to earn ten million dollars in a year.” Sophia told Serena exactly what Judy said to her. However, when Serena heard the name of the nightclub, she instantly shifted her ground.“Mom, I went to that nightclub with Wendy last time. The business was booming. There were probably over one hundred thousand customers each night. For that nightclub, earning ten million dollars in a year is entirely possible
