Benedict browsed the internet to check a list of things a pregnant woman had to do. When he knew that going for a walk after a meal could improve blood supply to the placenta and benefit the health of the mother and the kid, Benedict suggested having a walk with Yvonne.The both of them were like a pair of lovebirds, walking in the neighborhood. They did not care how people looked at them, and they naturally did not notice Judy, who was hiding nearby with her mouth wide open as she stared at them in shock.Judy was literally stunned by her findings!She watched Yvonne call Benedict her darling coquettishly and Benedict kissing Yvonne’s face, flirting with each other at a public place with no shame at all.Judy was still standing there blankly even when they were so far away that their shadows were gone.Judy went back to the Larson residence distraughtly. Her heart felt extremely uncomfortable and upset! Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine that the older woman whom her son
Michael had people spying on Sophia and her daughter’s movement closely. However, the strange thing was that Sophia had gone missing all of a sudden. They could not find any information about her as if she had disappeared into thin air.After discussing this matter with Christina, both of them felt it was abnormal. Even if Sophia did discover something, she would never leave Serena in the hospital alone and run away all by herself.A few days later, Logan reported to them that Sophia had passed away.Michael and Christina were shocked because according to their investigated information, Sophia went traveling around the world. Without any forewarning, Sophia passed away because of a medical emergency.Sophia was an orphan. She grew up at Hoover Alley without any friends or relatives, so John was responsible for handling her remains.To promote frugality, John did not conduct a funeral, nor did he let his friends and relatives know about it. Instead, he immediately ordered to cremat
Thus, Michael’s spy directed his investigation to the mental hospital, and immediately, he got something out of it. Sophia was not dead but locked in the psychiatric hospital secretly by John.John must have found out something to deal with Sophia so suddenly in such a way. When Michael heard that Sophia was suffering in the psychiatric hospital, he saluted John.No wonder John was a politician. He was evil-minded and vicious enough with his actions to come out with an idea like this.Michael’s initial aim was to let Sophia suffer too. Though since John had done what he had planned to do, Michael would just go with the flow and let Sophia enjoy the rest of her life in the psychiatric hospital.Michael told Matthew about it and asked Matthew not to tell Christina until she gave birth to the child. Hence, Matthew promised him.Judy pondered for several days, and finally, she came out with an idea. If she mixed the abortion pills into her drinking water and let Yvonne consume them, i
Serena still had no idea about what had happened to Sophia. When Winona paid Serena a visit at the hospital and realized that Serena was staying in the best hospital ward, she felt relieved. It seemed like Sophia did not betray them at all.If things were as such, then she must find a way to save Sophia from that place. After all, Winona would be ruined if John managed to extract more information from Sophia.Winona hired some thugs to set the psychiatric hospital on fire and ordered them to save Sophia during the commotion.By then, Sophia had been tortured by the patients so much that she was already half-dead. There was an unbearable stench on her who was nothing but bones and her legs were broken too. Sophia thought that she would spend the rest of her life at the psychiatric hospital and had never expected to be saved. Sophia was utterly happy. What mattered the most now was to escape from John. Since she was supposed to be dead from the fire, he would definitely kill her if
Darren found a cheap motel around the corner and checked in. He only had some loose change on him right now. It was the living expenses the prison had given him when he was released. He had to find a job first to keep himself alive.The next day, Darren went back to his old house and started to pull out the overgrown weeds. Just as he was doing so, a man walked past his house and peeped into it out of curiosity. “You’re… Brother Cain!” Darren stopped in his tracks and looked at the person in front of him. “Do I know you?”“I’m Earl!” The stranger introduced himself. “I used to be one of your lackeys. Don’t you remember me, Brother Cain?”Darren knew from the man’s name that he was just a nobody back then. However, it had been so long, so how would he remember someone he barely knew?“Oh yes! Of course I remember you, Earl!” Darren went with the flow and laughed.“When did you come back, Brother Cain?”“Yesterday.”“Give me a second, Brother Cain. Let me get the others to cle
Since security was getting better, it was not safe to rob houses anymore, so Earl’s men became the bouncers for nightclubs and illegal gambling organizations instead. To put it bluntly, they were to watch the venues. They were employed to maintain order there and had the permission to bash anyone up if they felt like it.Darren knew that the job description fitted him as he wanted to find a job just like that too.After settling Darren down, Earl went out of the house and called a number in a quiet area. “I’ve followed your orders, President Larson, and everything is proceeding according to plan now.”That was right, Earl was just another man set up by Michael.Judy had almost killed his mother so he would never let her get away with it so easily. He knew that Darren would go after Judy the moment he got out of jail, and by then, she would suffer.In the half a month that Darren lived in Earl’s house, he was served good food every day and got treated as if he were a king. It was t
Heather dared not to think about the consequences as she anxiously struggled to get out of bed. However, she had been unconscious for such a long time that her body was too frail to walk.Michael woke up to the nurse shaking him and rushed to Heather’s room after he had simply put on a jacket. Heather immediately grabbed Michael’s hand the moment she saw him. “Michael… My grandson… How is he?” “Don’t worry Mom. The child’s fine.” Michael held her hand as he comforted her.“What about Christina? How is she?”“She’s fine too. Just focus on getting well, Mom. I’ll bring Christina and Travis over to see you in a few days.” Michael helped Heather to lie down on the bed. Heather was glad that her grandchildren and Christina were fine, and with that, she finally felt at peace.However, as soon as Heather let out a sigh of relief and laid back down onto the bed, she suddenly sat up again. “Son, is Judy still home? That wr*tch!”Michael nodded his head and Heather started to panic once a
It was already risky for Yvonne to get pregnant at this age and the miscarriage made things worse. By now, her body had become so weak that Benedict decided to look after her at home out of worry.Under Sophia’s orders, Davis immediately sent his men to spy on Yvonne and found out about her relationship with Benedict.Sophia was shocked to learn that Benedict was living together with Yvonne too. Since Benedict was Judy’s son, did the ransom letter have anything to do with them?After all, decades had passed since Yvonne learned that Sophia was the one who had instructed Davis to kill Molly. Out of all times, why did she choose to expose her now when she was in a relationship with Benedict?Her thoughts trailed off and she remembered the huge sum that Benedict had compensated earlier on. He must be desperate for money now, so this definitely had something to do with him.Her only hopes were that Benedict did this on his account. If Judy had been the mastermind instead, then things
