Thanks to Jace's vague reply, Lucas stood there in the night for a long time before leaving.Everyone said he was a successful man, but what kind of successful man had a broken family at his age?Lucas felt suffocated. When he got to the car, a sharp pain hit his heart. He quickly held the car door and covered his heart with a pale face.The driver got out of the car and came to help him. "Sir, are you all right?"He waved his hand and waited until the pain was gone. Then, he moved his pale lips. "I'm fine. I'm probably tired from all the traveling."After he got into the car, he leaned back in the back seat and closed his eyes for a moment. Then, he took out his phone and turned it on.There were as many as ten missed calls from Luna. Lucas frowned irritably. When he wanted to shut his phone, his phone vibrated again. It was a phone call from Dr. Frank from the hospital.After thinking about it, he still answered the call.…He still looked indifferent after the call ended.
She wanted to marry him and be the rightful wife of the company's chief. She had always wanted to be Missus Spencer. Missus Spencer…Once upon a time, he only wanted the woman he loved most to be known as Missus Spencer. He loved to call her this name most. However, the outsiders did not call her Missus Spencer. All they knew her as was the eldest lady of the Yuriel family.Even though he worked his way up to be Universal Channel's chief, in the eyes of the world, he was still the son-in-law of the Yuriel family. People said he only rose through the ranks thanks to his wife's support.The prejudice of outsiders and the pressure of public opinion would surely destroy a family and a person's life.His life had crumbled already. He could not let his child's life be ruined too."Okay," he suddenly said and interrupted Luna. Luna was stunned for a moment and thought she had misheard him. She braced herself and asked, "What did you just say?"Lucas looked at her indifferently and s
"Mom, you're finally here! I'm so pissed!" Sage was so angry that her face was all scrunched up."Mom?!" Henry and Zachary both stood up when they heard Sage's shout. The trio had just arrived. Henry and Zachary looked at the trio with frightened faces.Primrose dressed formally today. She wore a velvet satin navy blue dress that showed her curvy and graceful figure and draped her black wavy hair behind her. She also wore a beautiful swan crystal necklace and an amethyst bracelet on her wrist and looked like a rich girl from a painting.However, her appearance and body looked more like Sage's sister, not her mother."Hey," Primrose responded and looked at Henry and Zachary with a smile. She laughed and said, "When did I have two more sons?"Henry and Zachary fell silent, embarrassed.Jace introduced them to Primrose, "They are my cousin, Henry and Zachary."Then, he gave his brothers a warning and stern look. "This is Sage's parents and…Mister Spencer, a lawyer. You can call h
Sage was attacked for no reason and went speechless. She looked at them helplessly as they continued chattering."Moms, let's talk about something serious first."Primrose said, "Okay, sure. If you want to teach Luna a lesson, hiring internet trolls to scold her is useless. A homewrecker like her is very shameless and thick-skinned. None of these will hurt her.""Then how should I do it?" Sage frowned. "She's pregnant right now. I can't beat her up, right?"Sean educated her about the law. "Assaulting a pregnant woman is a crime of assault. It's a felony."Sage was speechless. "I know. I have common sense and know this much about the law. She's daring enough to cause trouble because she's pregnant now, isn't she?""If a pregnant woman breaks the law, she's as guilty as other lawbreakers. She won't receive any preferential treatment for being pregnant."Sean looked at Freya. "If you want this to stop here, you can sue her. If you get enough evidence, you can file a case."Freya
Primrose and Luna spent a long time acting inside the ward. Sage wore a mask and sat on the bench in the hallway. She was bored, so she played with her phone and praised all the netizens that defended Freya and called Luna out.Soon, some netizens noticed her. A few worried fans even messaged her privately.[Stop watching their shows. Hurry and get your photo incident sorted out! I'm so worried!]Sage was left speechless and stunned. She looked embarrassed as if she was a student who got caught by the teacher for fooling around in class. However, she had never been to school in her life.When Primrose came out of the ward, she gestured to Sage with her finger. They walked to the window of the stairway. Sage noticed her mother's strange expression and asked, "What's wrong? Did you get caught?""Are you joking? I'm a professional at acting, okay?" Primrose rolled her eyes and said, "I've checked Luna's pulse. It's strange." Sage's heart jumped. "What do you mean? She's not fak
"When Madam Zelda first got pregnant, everything was normal. However, she wanted to have the baby too much and was very worried about miscarriage, so she took a lot of nutritional drugs. Too much medicine might lead to a drug overdose. I advised her before, but she refused to listen. She accidentally fell the day before and had some signs of early miscarriage. The situation now is quite tricky." Primrose asked, "Is Luna planning to give birth to the baby? Does my…brother-in-law know about this?"Dr. Frank was in a difficult position. He did not know whether he should be frank or not. Primrose looked distressed. "She's been my best friend and sister since I was a child. What should I do if something happens to her because of the child?" As she spoke, she began to wipe away tears.Sage was lost for words and amazed at her mother's actions. Her mother could cry whenever she wanted. A beauty tears would always make others soft-hearted. Dr. Frank could not bear seeing a beauty like
Primrose pondered Sage's suggestion and agreed. This time, it was her turn to give Sage a thumbs up. "As expected of my daughter. You're tough."Sage thought, 'I'm tough because that's what sc*m and b*tches make me do. They could've taken the better path, but they insisted on the road to hell. Why not fulfill their wish?'…Sage drove back to the Yuriel family's old residence. She saw Jace from a distance as soon as she entered. He was standing in the doorway smoking a cigarette.It was a cloudy day where dark clouds filled the sky. It felt like it was going to rain soon.Jace wore a light gray coat with a dark scarf around his neck. He leaned against the greenish-gray stone wall and dropped his head slightly. He held the cigarette between his fingertips and looked a little lonely."Look at him. He looks like he's doing a photo shoot." Primrose was stunned. "Well, putting everything else aside, your ex-husband does have a good look and body. He looks so handsome just standing c
"Persisting in evil only brings about self-destruction. They should've seen this coming."Freya had no sympathy for Lucas and Luna. Her thoughts were the same as Primrose and Sage's. She had no intention of telling Lucas about Luna's situation.Freya said indifferently, "The child is Luna's. It's her decision to give birth or not. It's none of my business. As for Lucas, I'm not going to forgive him either." The group kept talking and chatted about everything. Primrose and Freya became good friends right after they met. Meanwhile, Sawyer and Roy had not seen each other for a long time. As dusk approached, the rain came along with the soft pitter-patter of rain against the window pane.Sage moved a small bench and sat at the door. She enjoyed watching the raindrops fall in a line along the eaves like a curtain of rain. It was a sight she had not seen in a long time.Jace made a cup of tea for Sage. "Try this." Sage looked down at the color of the tea and frowned as she tasted i
