“What? You actually slept with a woman who’s unknown to you?” Matthew was shocked.Matthew knew that Sean always took relationships lightly, but little did he think that Sean’s affair was even more exciting than what he did. Well, never judge a man by his appearance!“Stop mocking me. Really, it was an accident!” Sean laughed bitterly, not knowing how he should face Christina anymore.Matthew thought the matter over and found it strange. “Sean, could it be a trick?”“I don’t think so. I was just in my own house. Who could’ve tricked me?”“You mentioned that you went downstairs to fetch some water in the middle of the night and that Jade happened to be in the living room. This situation itself is strange. Who would be awake in the middle of the night waiting for someone in the living room?” Since Matthew mentioned it, Sean felt that there was something fishy about the incident.Having said that, Jade was pure and innocent, and she could not possibly do such a thing. Perhaps it w
“Could it be Rachel’s doing?” Matthew asked.“Probably not.”“Well, it’s hard to say. She has long since started to find fault with Christina, and she probably still behaves in the same manner. You’d better check her out.”Sean frowned upon hanging up the phone. Could it be Rachel? Deep in his heart, he refused to believe that it was Rachel’s doing. However, as Sean recollected that she tricked Christina previously, he had second thoughts about it. In this case, he had to look into the incident.In addition to some dishes and wine, he only had a bowl of hamburger soup and half a glass of water that night. Since there was definitely nothing wrong with the water, he was only having doubts about the hamburger soup at that moment.Having asked the kitchen servants previously, Sean found out that he was not the only one who drank the hamburger soup as Rachel too did. Therefore, he instinctively believed that the soup was not the cause. Rather, it was him who had mistaken Jade for Chris
Sean did not return home for lunch at noon. After Rachel was done accompanying Old Madam Young for lunch, she returned to her room while Old Madam Young took a nap. She held her phone to dial a number. After that, she went downstairs and sat at the gazebo in the garden. A young man in a black shirt walked toward her shortly afterward. Handing a cardboard box to Rachel, he said, “Eldest Miss, this is what you want.” Rachel opened the box immediately upon taking it. She then nervously asked, “Are you sure this works, Shane?”A bright smile broke through Shane’s face. “Don’t worry, Eldest Miss. I’ve got someone to try it. It’s perfectly alright.”Rachel nodded contentedly. “Great. I’ll reward you later.”“You’re too kind, Eldest Miss. It’s my honor to be able to serve you.” Shane looked at Rachel enthusiastically. “Feel free to call me if you have any trouble in the future. I’ll definitely solve it for you.”“Okay. Thank you. You may leave now!” Rachel pretended as if she did not
Just as Rachel was rejoicing over the success of her plan, Sean appeared all of a sudden. “Rachel, I didn’t expect that you’d do such a thing!”“What did I do, Brother?” Rachel showed an innocent look.“Shane has told me everything. Don’t you dare deny it!” Sean tossed a box of drugs onto the floor.“Brother, it was Shane who accused me. Why would I do such a thing?” In a panic, Rachel lay the blame on Shane instead. “Shane has always had feelings for me. He even harassed me two days ago. I gave him a piece of my mind, so he began to hold a grudge against me deep down.”Sean would have believed her if this happened earlier. Since he had cleared things up, he knew that she also spontaneously asked Shane to help out with the earlier incident where Heather tried to take Travis away.“Rachel, I can’t believe that you had the intention of tricking me. Why on earth did you do this?”She could not hide the truth anymore, so she decided to come clean with him. “Yes, I did it! I don’t wan
“My child and I are fine, Old Madam Larson. Just focus on getting well. You don’t have to worry about us.”As soon as Heather heard Christina address her as Old Madam Larson, she was so touched that her tears almost fell. “Christina, I was wrong back then. I feel sorry for you and your child…”“Well, don’t talk about it anymore.” Christina interrupted her speech. “It’s all in the past.”“Alright. I’ll stop talking about it. It’s a relief to know that you and your child are safe.”Christina was quite touched. What a drastic change in Heather’s attitude after she regained her consciousness.No wonder they said that one would see things differently after he or she cheated death. Indeed, Heather had changed after having a narrow escape from death.Christina smiled at Heather. “You should focus on nursing your body back to health. This way, Michael can concentrate on his work as well.”Heather nodded. She used to be disgusted with Christina, but now she was attracted by her in every
“Michael, quickly deal with those b*tches. Once you’re done dealing with them, you’ll have time to accompany Christina and your son.”Michael nodded. “I’m already dealing with them. Don’t worry, none of them will be able to get away with it.”Later, he told Heather the cases where Judy went blind and came into conflict with her son. Heather blew off steam upon hearing that. “That evil woman better die!”“There’s also going to be a good show soon as Sophia has started to keep an eye on Benedict. His good days are numbered. Sophia, in her typically cruel manner, will make Judy and Benedict fight each other. We can just sit back and watch the show.”“So how are you planning to deal with Winona?” Heather naturally turned her attention to Winona’s affair since Judy would no longer be able to do her harm. “Don’t worry. The person who’s going to deal with Winona is already in place, and Winona will be too busy to bother with other stuff.”“What about Serena? That little b*tch is very
Sophia was Tommy’s cousin. Nicknamed Nightingale, she was very close with the hooligans in Hoover Alley. It was because Sophia cared for Tommy that he managed to gain a foothold here.Of course, he would not dare to betray Sophia. Therefore, he sent Winona’s child back to her, telling her that he had swapped the children.Winona held a grudge toward Sophia deep down. She asked Tommy to send the child away without bothering to take a glance at the child. Tommy was so cruel that he put the child in front of the entrance of an orphanage.From the day the child was born, Tommy already knew that the child was not his but John’s. Therefore, he did not feel sorry for the child at all.Later, Tommy was sent to jail for intentional assault. Nobody else knew this incident except for Sophia.Michael was shocked to hear this from Tommy. Little did he know that Sophia could be so calculating and that Winona could be so cruel.If what Tommy said was true, Suzy would be John’s daughter and also
There was no place for Winona in Henry’s heart. Winona was clinging on to Henry stubbornly. She wanted to be together with him no matter what. Henry would normally act as if he could not see Winona. He had never cared about what Winona did as well. After Matthew told him about Winona’s evil deeds on the phone, Henry began to despise her even more. Even if Winona was Molly’s only sister, Henry would never forgive Winona. He heard that Molly’s death was caused by Winona and Sophia. Henry’s first thought was to strangle the ungrateful scumbag until she dies. “Michael has his own plans to deal with Winona. You need to leave here immediately. It was also part of that scumbag’s plan to stay by your side throughout these years. She has been living a good life by your side. You couldn’t possibly allow her to live a happy life, right?” “I have nothing to do with her throughout these years. Even if I leave, it won’t be a threat to her at all.” Henry could not understand. “You don’t u
