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
The joy only lasted for a week. They dropped to hell from heaven as their dream of getting rich had shattered, and they were left with nothing overnight.Luckily, Sophia secretly asked someone to mediate a solution and cover the matter up in the name of John. Otherwise, the bunch would have been sent to jail.Judy lost all the money she had earned from the Larson family. On the other hand, Davis suddenly returned to the kind of life before he was released. He could only make a living wage in Mary’s beauty salon. Judy was so furious that she almost fainted. She gave her son a piece of her mind. Nevertheless, what was done was done. The money would surely not come back to her.Now that Benedict had been fired by the Garcias, he had no place to stay, and so he stayed in a shabby motel for the time being.Judy originally did not feel inclined to resign from the Larson family. With this situation, she did not even dare to leave her job. If she stepped out of the Larson family’s house
”President Larson, Doctor Harris is here to see Madam again. She insisted on entering the hospital ward, but we stopped her.” “Alright.” Michael’s eyes were cold. That Winona was not willing to give up. She would even dare to take action! Now, he finally understood the full story of this situation. Sophia schemed against his mother and shifted the blame to Christina so that Serena could marry into the Larson family. Judy only accepted Sophia’s bribe because she could gain something from Sophia. However, what about Winona? Why did she treat his mother like that? Michael could not think of an answer. Heather viewed Winona as her best friend. Whenever Heather acquired something good, she would always save a piece for Winona. She had even bared her soul to Winona. As such, Winona had no reason to hate his mother at all. Winona was a doctor, and she was not short of cash as well. She did not require Sophia’s help to achieve anything. Why would she willingly become Sophia’s acc
Michael could not find any information regarding the details. It had been such a long time since the incident. It was hard to confirm whether Winona had a child with Sophia’s cousin. However, according to the information that he had discovered, Sophia’s cousin had indeed clung to Winona every day. He had even stayed in her house overnight. Winona was a pretty lady. Logically speaking, she would never like a ruffian like him. However, the man who took care of her throughout the few months of her pregnancy was Sophia’s cousin. Eventually, Sophia’s cousin was later sent to prison as he committed a crime. There was another problem. Winona’s brother, Martin, was a world-renowned architect. When Winona was at the lowest point of her life, why did she not go to her brother for help? Why did she hide in Hoover Alley instead? As Michael thought of that, he was reminded of Francis’s past. The Francis that he knew now used to be Martin in the past. That was another mystery. Martin had b
”Christina still doesn’t know that I’m not her uncle, so I hope that you won’t tell Christina that I am Martin Harris. I don’t want to affect her emotions.” “Don’t worry. I won’t tell Christina.” Michael guaranteed. It was obvious that Martin was taking care of Christina. In Christina’s eyes, Martin was her uncle. Michael did not need to disrupt the harmony between them. “I still need to ask you about Winona’s past. You’re her brother, so you should understand her well, right? What kind of person do you think she is?” Martin remained silent for a while. Then, he replied with three words, “Selfish and evil.” “Christina should have told you about what happened to my mother, right? I suspect that my mother became like this because Winona plotted against her.” As Michael thought of his unconscious mother, who was still in the hospital, he felt extremely sad. He then told Martin about how Winona helped Sophia and Serena scheme against his mother and himself. “To speak the trut
Michael told Logan to settle this matter as soon as possible. After returning home, Martin was furious after his meetup with Michael. He knew that Winona was a bad person, but he did not expect that Winona would go this far. Martin was a kind person at heart. Even though Winona had done so many scornful things towards Molly in the past, Winona was still his sister, no matter what. He thought that he should give her another chance. He thought that Winona would repent after all these years. However, he did not expect that she would not change at all. Winona would even harm another human’s life to break Christina and Michael apart. Now, Martin finally realized that a leopard never changes its spots. His silence and tolerance would not result in Winona’s repentance. On the contrary, he was helping her to become more arrogant. Winona had always threatened to expose Francis’s true identity as Martin. Back then, he chose to be patient as he did not want to worry Christina. Martin al
After knowing that the two babies in Serena’s womb were boys, Michael felt overjoyed. He reminded the doctor to give Serena anti-abortifacient drugs. He also said that he will personally accompany Serena out of the hospital. “You need to be careful when you go out. Please don’t allow your children to get hurt. Plus, both of them are boys. That’s fantastic!” Serena was jubilant as well. Did that mean that Michael accepted the children in her womb? After thinking about it, Serena figured that was the case. The Larson family had had only one son per generation for several decades. As such, they would definitely favor the boys. That was why Heather cared for Travis that much. Now that she had two boys in her womb, it was natural that Michael would have a change of attitude. After leaving Michael, Serena quietly went back to the doctor to ask for confirmation. Did she really have two boys in her womb? “Miss Garcia, I can’t be too sure about that. However, your mother told me tha
