Kevin calmly took out a document from his leather pouch and said, "This is the contract Ms. Jane signed. It is legally binding, compliant, and valid, with the date before when you signed your agreement."Actually, Ms. Jane did mention this contract when she signed the agreement with you."Horace and William were left in shock. Jane had completely outsmarted them. Ivy had no idea about the contents of the agreement. But she heard a key point and said proudly, "Dad, this brat isn't married yet. So, the agreement is still valid!" Horace was delighted and said to Kevin, "Mr. Turner, Lucille isn't married yet. So, we can still take back 30% of shares, correct?" Lucille, who'd been sitting relaxedly on the couch like a ghost, said lazily, "Who told you I'm not married?" She stood up, waved her hand before her face, and let out a fake sigh. "It's all my dear Mr. Layton's fault for choosing such a tiny diamond that couldn't dazzle someone's eyes. I'll have him buy another diamond rin
Knowing Eunice was coming to Whiteloop City, Bailey booked a table at noon at La Belle Époque, a high-end Faelisian restaurant. Bailey, Eunice, and Lucille were all beauties, each had different charms, and they naturally caught the other patrons' attention. But the trio was used to having this attention and started chatting as soon as they were seated. Eunice didn't have any close friends. But since she'd met Lucille and Bailey, she'd become more cheerful and talkative than before. Bailey sipped her water before asking, "So Eunie, why did you come to Whiteloop City for this time?" Eunice replied with a smile, "I plan to settle here in Whiteloop City." Bailey and Lucille thought they had misheard Eunice and stared at her simultaneously. Eunice pouted and asked, "What's wrong? You don't welcome me?" Bailey shook her head. "No, we're just surprised!" Lucille asked, "But why did you suddenly consider settling here?" Bailey also asked, "Is Uncle Ian coming, too?" She'd
"I've already settled the bills. Please wait here for a moment, Bailey and Eunie. I have to use this washroom," Lucille said. As she exited the washroom, she bumped Sabrina, whom she hadn't seen for half a month, at the stairway. She merely glared at Sabrina and was about to go down the stairs when the said in a delicate and gentle voice, "Wait, Lucille. I have something to tell you." Lucille turned a deaf ear to her, but she was stopped by an arm. She frowned, and her eyes gleamed with a hint of irritation. Lucille lazily raised her gaze and said without mercy, "Stop acting familiar. We're no longer a family."Sabrina wasn't angry or embarrassed. It seemed like fate was on her side. She'd never thought she'd meet this little bitch, Lucille, when Lorelei invited her for lunch today. She'd heard about what happened two days ago from Ivy. It turned out that Lucille had gotten married and taken 30% of Johnson Group's shares. While she felt resentful since Horace had only gi
Harold hastily arrived outside the operating room of Central Hospital. When he received Lorelei's call, he'd immediately adjourned the meeting he'd been in and rushed to the hospital. Lorelei saw Harold and sobbed. "Harry! Sabrina lost a lot of blood!" Life drained from Harold's eyes. He then asked with a solemn expression, "What happened? How did Bree fall off the stairs so suddenly?" Lorelei only told Harold that Sabrina fell down the stairs on the phone without mentioning any other things. With red eyes filled with tears, she pointed angrily at Lucille and her friends, who were seated not far away. 'It's her! Lucille pushed Sabrina down the stairs! She was envious of Sabrina for having your baby. We were having lunch at La Belle Époque when we ran into Lucille. Then, she argued with Sabrina by the staircase and pushed Sabrina when she couldn't stand it!" These were all based on Lorelei's assumption. She had always disliked Lucille. So, she would take any chance to badmou
Lucille wasn't mad at William's words. Instead, she maintained an unusually calm expression. Eunice and Bailey, however, almost swore when they heard William. What kind of father was he? Lucille and Sabrina were both his daughters, yet they were treated unequally. He just started yelling at people without understanding the situation. How could his mouth be so filthy? Lincoln and Ophelia also reached the hospital. But they courteously greeted the Johnsons before standing by the side in silence. Meanwhile, a video went viral online. It depicted Lucille pushing Sabrina down the stairs at La Belle Époque. Although it only showed Lucille's side profile, anyone who'd seen her could tell it was her. Of course, everyone had freedom of speech online. So, there were all kinds of people saying all sorts of things. One thread even contained thousands of comments."My mama always said pretty women are wicked. Looks like she wasn't wrong!" "My god, I don't know what to say about this pa
"Sir, I've checked the surveillance footage at La Belle Époque. But unfortunately, Mrs. Layton was blocking the view of the surveillance camera," Mack said worriedly. The worst part was that the footage captured made it look like Lucille had pushed Sabrina down the stairs. Soon, Spencer and Mack hastily made their way to the hospital. "Get someone to take down the video first!" Spencer had a solemn expression, and his eyes were unbelievably icy."Yes, sir!" Mack then made a phone call. But after the person said something, he was stunned momentarily before hanging up the phone and turning to the backseat. "Sir, they said all the videos and articles about Mrs. Layton were taken down five minutes ago." Spencer was about to say something when his phone rang. It was from Lucas. "Hello?" Spencer said. "Spence, you don't have to come to the hospital. Just go to the police station," Lucas said. "Luce was taken away for an interview. She's okay; don't worry about her." Then,
When Harold and William arrived at the police station, the latter immediately started yelling at Lucille, "You're a disgrace to the Johnson family! I never thought you'd be this vicious to push Sabrina down the stairs, causing her to lose her child! "Do you know she was still defending you when she woke up? No matter how much she defends you this time, it's useless! I'll make you pay for what you did!" Before Lucille said anything, Spencer patted her head while they were still embracing, signaling her to let him handle this. "How exactly are you going to make her pay?" Spencer pressed his lips with his eyebrows raised. His pitch-black pupils exuded a chilling gaze, and his tone was so cold it could make people shiver. William didn't know who Spencer was, but he had an intimidating presence belonging to a powerful, upper-class figure. Still, William bore through the suffocating pressure and said, "Of course, someone with such malicious intent must be jailed!" "Is that so? As
After asking Mack to stay for the rest of the matters, Spencer left with Lucille. In the car, he wanted to ask her if she was frightened, but he sighed and gave up the thought when he remembered the times she'd beaten up other people and also her calm composure when facing a bomb. Considering that Lucille didn't seem that timid, he asked, "Should we head back home or to the company?" Lucille pondered momentarily before smiling and said, "Let's go home." "Okay, sure." Spencer patted the back of her head before starting the engine and leaving the police station. After a long silence in the car, Lucille said, "I was wondering about something before you came." Spencer asked while his eyes were focused on the road, "What is it?" "Sabrina just got the most precious thing in the world. You can even say she's won at life. I, on the other hand, am nothing compared to her in the Johnsons' eyes. "So why would she risk her own life to ruin mine? She is even willing to sacrifice her
