Not many people knew the password to her house, Zoey's heart skipped a beat as she abruptly stopped crying and turned her head to look back.
When she saw the person coming, a bitter smile curved at the corner of her lips.
It was not Russell, but Leanna.
Thought I was waiting for the one who would return, but it turned out that the one who would return had already become a stranger.
Leanna took off her shoes and walked quickly over, squatting down to hug Zoey.
"Zoey, I would always be there."
After Leanna found out about Russell's infidelity online, she immediately returned.
She knew that Zoey must have been very, very upset, and she wanted to be by Zoey's side.
She didn't say anything, she just held Zoey, who was crying nonstop.
After a while, Zoey finally spoke in a low voice, "I spent the whole afternoon looking for evidence of our past love. There is a lot of evidence proving that we were in love. Leanna, you know tha
When Zoey woke up, it was already late at night.She looked at the fluffy head beside her and her lips curved slightly upwards.Leanna once said that men were unreliable, and only best friends were true love.Zoey also joked about fire prevention, theft prevention, and preventing best friends.The only one accompanying her at the moment was her best friend.She glanced at the nearly empty drip bottle, reached out and pressed the button.Although the movement was slight, the sleeping person still felt it.Leanna looked up, still half asleep, and instantly became alert. "Don't move, don't move. I'll call the nurse to remove the needle."Zoey felt a little exaggerated, "It's okay, I might just have low blood sugar, I'm not that delicate."Leanna let go of Zoey's hand and said, "You rest and don't move around."She pressed the bell, and soon a nurse came and removed the needle.Because it was the last round of
Zoey looked at the word "abortion" on the report card and pursed her lips.She did not expect that the child she had with Russell would have this outcome.Leanna looked at her with a reluctant expression and really wanted to say, "Why don't you just stay?"It was just that Zoey spoke first and handed her the form, saying, "The doctor said to pay the fee and help me make an appointment."Leanna could only nod and sigh as she took the list and went to pay, with Toby naturally following along.Zoey sat on a chair in the corridor, with the warm winter sun shining on her, but she felt as if she were in an ice cellar, cold to the bone.She wore a duckbill cap and a mask, covering herself tightly, sitting there in a very desolate manner, and no one recognized her.The hospital was bustling with people, and a young couple caught her attention."Could the child stay?"The man looked impatient, "Do you want me to stay and serve yo
A deep voice of a man came, "Toby, what's the matter?"Toby asked, "What's going on between you and Zoey? I can't believe you've fallen for someone else! Do you have any ulterior motives?"Russell fell silent for a moment and said, "There's no big deal, I just got tired of sleeping with the same woman."Toby furrowed his brow in disbelief, "Tired of it? Russell, you once broke your spine to save Zoey, you were willing to give up your life for her. You've been through life and death together, and now you're saying you're tired of it?"Russell's lips curled into a mocking arc, "Once you're fed up, you're fed up. After tasting the flavor, who would keep eating it all the time? Maybe you like Leanna now, but once the novelty wears off, you'll also find it tiresome."Toby had never felt Russell was so punchable when he spoke. He took a deep breath and asked, "Are you really dating Abigail?""Yes!""Was Abigail really pregnant?""Yes
Seeing that the matter could no longer be concealed, Zoey nodded.Jaelyn was both angry and heartbroken, "How could they not discuss such a big matter with Mom and Sister?"Zoey lowered her gaze, "I only found out last night as well. Leanna accompanied me today to make an appointment for the abortion, and the surgery is scheduled for the day after tomorrow."Jaelyn frowned, "You didn't want it?""There was no way," Zoey choked out.Jaelyn held her hand and said, "Zoey, Russell was a scumbag, but the child is always innocent. Besides, this is not only his child, but also your child! The Keller family can afford to raise this child, can't we? If Russell wants to fight for custody, the Keller family will fight him to the end!"Madeleine sat down next to Zoey and said, "Mom, Abigail is also pregnant! Can Russell still fight for Zoey's child?"When Jaelyn thought about this matter, she felt a surge of frustration in her heart. "It's better
Zoey looked at the disconnected phone, furrowing her brow.I heard Leanna muttering, "Grilling meat? Are they going to grill Russell?"Zoey felt that it was unnecessary, so she called back, but Landyn didn't answer at all, neither did her three brothers.She bit her lower lip and lifted the covers off the bed.Leanna immediately got up and said, "Zoey, what are you going to do?""Divorce is all it is, I don't want it to end on a sour note," Zoey walked out briskly.Jaelyn and Madeleine were carrying dishes to the restaurant.Madeleine said, "Is Zoey awake? Just in time, Mom has made braised pork ribs with green beans, honey-glazed lamb chops, and roasted asparagus."Zoey apologized, "I'm sorry, you guys go ahead and eat, I need to go out for a while."Leanna slapped her own mouth hard and said, "It's all my fault. I told you what Uncle decided. Zoey called Uncle, and although Uncle didn't say he would beat up Russell, it
Russell, upon hearing the words, abruptly turned his gaze towards the extraordinary man, and his pupils contracted."You should consider me as a scumbag!"Landyn could hear sadness and frustration in the other person's hoarse and restrained voice, and he knew that things were not as simple as they seemed.Russell's character was trustworthy, so he must have encountered significant trouble and currently cannot find a solution, which is why he is acting this way.He thought the problem did not occur on Russell, but on Zoey.Because of Zoey, Russell was blackmailed and had to do those messed up things.He believed that those things were all fake, Russell would not betray Zoey.Now Russell, lowering his voice like this, must have been under surveillance by someone, besides Abigail, there were others.Landyn landed another hard punch on the man's body and asked, "How can I help you?""I divorced Zoey, stay away from me," Russ
The crowd dispersed, and Serene Manor returned to a state of lifelessness.Yes, when Zoey was around, Serene Manor was filled with warmth and laughter.But now, Serene Manor was filled with silence.Russell limped and hobbled towards the villa.Abigail, on the other hand, was screaming and shouting like crazy.She returned to the bedroom, and the man on the bed immediately got up and walked towards her.Abigail looked at the man's face, which closely resembled Russell's, and became furious. She grabbed the belt from the bedside table and fiercely whipped the man.Men were just servants, destined to be beaten."Russell, you bastard, I hated you so much!""What am I lacking compared to Zoey?""You said, you said!"The man endured the pain, thinking to himself that you were not as good as Zoey in any way, not even a single strand of hair.You just can't say this, saying it would bring even more beatings
All eyes fell on Zoey, and she pursed her lips. "If Russell had a reason, of course I couldn't hit him."Everyone seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, after all, it was a little life that hadn't had a chance to see the world properly before quietly slipping away. Everyone felt a bit reluctant.After some analysis, everyone's mood improved a little.Zoey went to the study and restored the settings.After returning to the living room, everyone passionately criticized Russell, the unfaithful man, with a truly indignant expression.Close to ten o'clock, Zoey had everyone go back, except for Leanna who stayed to accompany her.Zoey felt a little hungry, and Leanna heated up the food. The two of them sat facing each other and ate.Leanna slurped on the ribs, while continuously berating Russell and Abigail.Zoey, on the other hand, was silently chewing on a lamb chop, looking extremely upset.The two of them finished eating and
Leanna pursed her lips and felt that Toby had changed a lot.She used to be big, but tonight she transformed into a fairy, and she was almost devoured completely.Forget it, they have already had one time, and it has long been devoured.Leanna just felt that this man seemed to have the potential to be a show-off after having a meaty meal, quite flamboyant.She turned off her phone directly and went to sleep under the covers.The next day, Leanna woke up and it was already past nine o'clock. She quickly got out of bed and ran out of the bedroom, only to see Zoey sitting on the couch in the living room, talking on the phone, seemingly discussing some experimental data.Zoey saw Leanna running out with her hair disheveled, and after saying a few words over there, she hung up.Leanna pointed to the surveillance in the dark, and Zoey nodded, "I only controlled it for a few minutes. The other side thought we were sleeping when they saw us."
Suburban villa.Gilberto sat on the couch, drinking red wine, and he lowered his gaze, staring at the screen of his phone.At that moment, a series of numbers dialed in.He quickly picked up and asked, "What's going on?""The entire neighborhood experienced a power outage because a construction team accidentally severed the power cable. It will take some time to restore the electricity.""Interrogate every member of the construction team, I want to know if anyone has tampered with anything.""Yes."After hanging up the phone, Gilberto set his cellphone aside and slowly sipped on red wine, squinting his eyes.He called Abigail and asked, "Did Russell go out tonight?"Abigail said, "No, he was in the bedroom the whole time."Gilberto finally hung up the phone with relief.At the same time, Abigail trembled as she looked at the man in front of her, "You heard what I said, right?"Russell's eyes were col
In the darkness, Zoey instinctively raised her hand to strike, but her wrist was firmly grasped by the other person, and then she was pulled into their embrace, tightly bound.The familiar cold scent of the man penetrated Zoey's nostrils, instantly making her eyes well up with tears.She hugged the man back, burying her face in his chest and crying softly."Zoey..." the man choked, "Are you... okay?"Zoey sobbed, "No, it's not good at all! How could you do this, Russell?""It was my fault, all of it was my fault."Zoey sniffed, "It was your fault!""Zoey, I'm sorry.""Is sorry useful? Do you know how sad and upset I was?""I, I couldn't do it.""Couldn't we face difficulties together, discuss them together, and solve them together?"Russell's voice was hoarse, "This incident was very serious."Zoey looked up and said, "Is it because a chip was installed in my heart?"Russell was taken aback, "
Zoey didn't expect Gilberto to come to the old house, and she hated him very much at that moment.All of this happened because of him, he was the instigator.However, she couldn't show it now.Zoey simply said, "How did you come?"Gilberto handed the nutrition supplements to the maid and said, "I will come and check on you."Zoey slightly curved her lips, "Thank you. Have you eaten?"Gilberto said, "Not yet.""If you don't mind, let's eat together, shall we?""Then I will disturb you."Zoey brought Gilberto into the restaurant, and the Keller family heard from their servant that a mixed-race child had arrived, looking very handsome. They immediately guessed that it was Gilberto.When Zoey went to receive the guests, they adjusted their emotions, so when they saw Gilberto, all the members of the Keller family stood up to express their gratitude.Especially, Tabitha approached and held Gilberto's hand, "This
The icy touch made Zoey gasp and she pursed her lips slightly.The doctor was a little excited, after all, it was her first time seeing Dr. Z and having such a close encounter.Her hands were shaking a little. "Sorry, I got a bit excited when I saw you."Zoey smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, this instrument is not only the most advanced detection device in my research institute, but also in the world. It has less radiation and higher clarity and discrimination than PET-CT Scan. Although it has not been put into production, it works very well. It just needs one word, and that is 'stable'."The doctor nodded, "Okay, okay."She swallowed and held a high-definition probe to investigate Zoey's heart and its surroundings.Normally, this instrument detects the whole body, but Zoey was pregnant, so it could only perform partial detection.The doctor initially didn't find anything, but then gradually furrowed his brow."It seemed
