Bruce is missing, fear naturally crept into the minds of the bodyguards. The previous night, Dickson forbade anyone from following him, and the bodyguards dared not disobey or let him out of their sight. Their only option was to shadow him discreetly. However, Dickson drove at a rapid pace, and within minutes, they lost track of him. Despite searching throughout the night, they couldn't locate him, intensifying their anxiety.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang, prompting Amanda to get up and turn it off. Nowadays, she struggles with sleep, managing only three or four hours a day. Last night, due to Dickson's interruption, she got less than two hours of sleep. In the living room, Dickson lay on the couch, deeply asleep. Deprived of oxygen due to the blood loss, he was unusually drowsy. Even after Amanda got up, he remained asleep.

Betty also rose and observed Dickson on the couch with a resigned expression."Miss Amanda, what should we do about him?"

    "Mandy, I've brought you some breakfast and some daily necessities..."Before Andrew could finish his words, he caught sight of Dickson."What's he doing here?""Drew, don't get me wrong! I don't know what was wrong with him last night. He came all the way here."Hearing that, Dickson responded by tightening his grip around Amanda's shoulder while looking at Andrew tauntingly."Amanda and I are married. We don't need someone else to tell us what to do."Amanda struggled a little. "Dickson, we're divorced already!""We can still remarry, can't we?""You're nuts. Let go of me!"Andrew couldn't help but frown. "Amanda, what's he doing here?"From the looks of the situation, he figured that Dickson had spent the night here.The idea was driving Andrewup the wall.Dickson sneered, "Why can't I be here?""Drew, I'll explain it to you later! Dickson, you have to go! If you don't, I'll really call the police!"Dickson gulped and looked grimly at Amanda. "Amanda, I'm going to ask you again. Wh

    Kiki arrived at the hospital early in the morning, only to discover that Dickson was missing. Anxiousness pulsed through her veins, causing her to almost lose consciousness."Where's Dickson? Haven't you found him yet?""Last night, Mr. Dickson insisted on driving out of here. He wouldn't allow anyone to follow him...""You bunch of losers. If something happens to Dickson , I'll bury all of you with him!"Kiki had a fit. Being in her 60s, she had a weak heart. Once she got mad, her heart would ache, and her brain would be deprived of oxygen. The assistant swiftly whipped out an oxygen tank and put the mask on Kiki's face. She only calmed down a little after inhaling a few mouthfuls of oxygen."Hurry up and find him. We have to find him!"Augustine quickly reassured Kiki, "Yes, yes. We're already looking. Austin headed out with some people to look for Mr. Dickson last night. I'll call him now to ask if he has found Mr. Dickson!"Amelia also hurried to the hospital at that moment after

    On instinct, Amelia took a couple of steps back. Then, she moved forward again, grasping Dickson's arm. "Dickson, even if Amanda saved you a decade ago, are you willing to discard the years we've spent together?" Dickson, with a stern expression, responded dryly, "Our relationship has been a mistake from the start.""No, it hasn't! You can't end things over something so trivial! I won't accept it!" Amelia swung Dickson's arm desperately, growing increasingly emotional. "You love me, Dickson! We're deeply in love. How can you end it so easily? I waited for you for six years, and now you want to leave me?"Tears streamed down Amelia's face as her slender body trembled uncontrollably. The bodyguards stepped back, and Kiki sighed, not expressing her opinion. She never liked Amelia, considering her bourgeois background. Despite her feelings, Kiki refrained from interfering too much in her grandson's relationships, maintaining an indifferent facade.Dickson, feeling a tinge of guilt, offere

    “What's happening? Did you and Amelia break up?” Dickson sighed in relief, offering no response. In an instant, Stella sensed the truth and erupted, accusing Dickson of heartlessness and threatening self-harm. Patrick, attempting to calm the situation, reminded Stella they were at the hospital and urged her to wait until Amelia's operation was over. Unmoved, Stella continued her emotional outburst, vowing to make a scene at Anderson’s Corporation's doorstep if anything happened to Amelia.Stella's dramatic display caught the attention of onlookers, reminiscent of her past tactics to manipulate Patrick into marriage. This time, her goal was to secure her Friend’s place in the Anfderson family. Stella's experience in causing a commotion was evident, and she anticipated that the wealthy Anderson family would want to protect their image. Onlookers in the hospital gathered, spreading rumours about Mr. Anderson's fiancée attempted self-harm.A doctor intervened, urging Ingrid to calm down,

    She could tolerate disbelief and criticism from others, but even her own sister doubted her. Throughout her upbringing, she worked diligently, striving for excellence to earn her sister's approval and praise. However, regardless of her efforts, her sister remained consistently distant and unresponsive, withholding both praise and paternal affection. Eventually, she accepted this reality and decided to stop seeking approval or expecting love from anyone.In an attempt to defend herself, she vehemently denied any romantic involvement with Dickson Anderson to her sister. Amanda was also frustrated, as Dickson had made her life difficult in the past two days, resulting in a broken arm. Despite this, she found herself blamed instead of Dickson. Stella, mocking and accusing, questioned Amanda’s innocence, insinuating that she was the cause of Amelia and Dickson's breakup. Stella criticised Amanda for allegedly seducing Mr. Dickson, causing conflicts between him and Amelia, and labelled her

    Stella, in a loud cry, pleaded, "Amelia, you have to wake up! What am I going to do if you don't wake up?" Patrick, raising his eyebrows, consoled Dickson by patting him on the shoulder. "Dickson, you've been with Amelia for six years, and your relationship with her is complicated. You need to figure out how to resolve it. You've hurt Amelia before, and she can't bear to be hurt again."Dickson furrowed his brow upon hearing this. Stella continued, "Dickson, you must take responsibility for Amelia! She's a kind and innocent girl, different from other women. She's already in a relationship with you. You can't hurt her like this." Dickson took a deep breath, refraining from explaining that he hadn't engaged in any s*xual activities with Amelia. He realised it was futile to discuss it further, knowing that after six years of dating, others wouldn't believe him.Despite the accusations, Dickson hadn't touched Amelia in that manner. When he had needs, he spent money on other women, emphasi

    "Have you finished the discharge process?" Andrew asked with a furrowed brow, expressing concern. "I haven't done it yet. Your injuries are severe. I still believe you should stay in the hospital for a few more days," he added.Amanda insisted, getting out of bed, "No, I can't stay in the hospital! Francis will be scared if he doesn't see me!""Alright, then. I'll take care of the paperwork for your discharge.""Okay!"After half an hour, Andrew completed the discharge process. Amanda had changed into different clothes, though the splint on her hand was a bit inconvenient. Andrerw carried all the necessary medicine and supplies. As they opened the ward's door, Patrick suddenly appeared at the entrance.Amanda was taken aback at the sight of Patrick. "Pat...""Amanda, what are you up to?" He only realised the extent of Amanda's injuries at that moment. He was so upset that he didn't even notice her broken arm. Perhaps she didn't receive enough paternal affection in her childhood. Never

    Upon returning home,Amanda discovered that the house had already been organised, courtesy of Andrew, who had arranged for someone to do it.“Amanda, I think it’s better for you to move! I still have a mansion in Black Hollow Bay. It’s vacant, so you can just move in!”“No, thanks! I've already caused you enough trouble. I shouldn’t disturb you any further.”“How would that be troubling me? The house is empty anyway. It’s perfect for you!”“No, it’s too far from my workplace.”Andrew sighed and ceased insisting. Eventually, he relented, saying, “Okay. Just let me know if you need anything!”“Thank you, Drew!”“There you go again. How many times do I have to tell you that you don’t have to thank me?”Amanda’s expression and emotions became more conflicted upon hearing his remark. “Andrew treats me too well. I just wish I knew how to repay him,” she thought.Upon arriving home, Amanda entered the passcode and opened the door. Betty rushed to the door with red eyes. “Miss Amanda , you're

    Knock! Knock!The sound of the door was heard as it came with a knock not so loud.“Who could that be?” Dickson thought out loud as he tried finding out the person behind the door.“Are you expecting anyone in this house?” He asked Betty who acts like the second in command whenever Amanda isn't around.“I'm not expecting anyone, sir. As you can see madam Amanda asked me to watch over her son and that's what I'm being paid for.” She made her duties clear to him in a clearer tone.“I don't know if at all I'll be doing the right thing to open the door for the person behind the door to enter.” He stood up from where he sat and paced around uncontrollably.Betty watching the way Dickson moved spoke up, “You don't have to bother at all it might be that the knock was a mistake.”“That could be true as well. Let's hope that the knocker won't knock again.” Betty addressed him pointing her fingers to the chair instructing him to seat on it.Knock! Knock!“Did you hear that? I think I need to te

    “Francisca can’t be left alone. Look after her!”Anna nodded solemnly. “Miss Amanda, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of her!”“Then I’ll take my leave first!”“Goodbye, Miss Amanda!”Amanda did not say anything else. She took her bag and left in a hurry.Dickson followed closely behind.Amanda arrived at the parking lot and reached for the car key in her pocket, only to realize thather car was still at the studio.Dickson was the one who sent her and Francisca to the hospital.“Uh…” Amanda frowned and resentfully put the car keys back into her bag.She was about to hail a taxi when a car stopped beside her.“Get in!” Dickson rolled down the window and looked at her casually.Amanda was stunned.Even though she didn’t want to get into his car, she knew he would go crazy again if she rejectedhim.Helpless, Amanda obediently got into the front passenger seat.In the car.Amanda did not say a word, Her expression was cold and indifferent.Dickson glanced at her from time to time, his g

    Seeing that Francisca had recovered, she could not help but lie on the bed and fall asleep.She took a nap in a daze and felt someone putting a piece of clothing on her shoulder.Amanda was shocked and quickly opened her eyes.She turned around and saw Dickson.He was holding a suit and putting it on her at that moment.Amanda suddenly sat up straight. “Dickson, why are you back again?”Seeing how nervous she was, Dickson chuckled. “You still owe me a bowl of noodles, so why can’t Ibe back?”Amanda frowned in frustration. “This is a hospital. I can’t make noodles for you!”“When are you going to make it for me?”“When my daughter recovers, I’ll make it for you when I have time!”Dickson chuckled. “Alright, I’ll wait for you!”“There’s nothing else here. You can go back now!”When Dickson heard this, he raised his eyebrows and smiled. “No, I want to accompany you here!”“I don’t need your company. It’s already so late.

Do you… not trust me?” Amelia’s body went numb from hisstare.As she spoke, her tears fell again. She looked weak and helpless.Dickson did not say anything else. He just smoked silently and waited.While waiting, Amelia became even more uneasy.She wanted to find an opportunity to call or send a message to Eric to warn him not to spoutnonsense.Unfortunately, Dickson was watching her. She had no chance at all.Half an hour later!Eric was brought to an office.There was a huge double–sided mirror in the office.Dickson and Amelia were behind the mirror.

    Amanda rolled her eyes and pushed open the door to the ward. Standing outside, Amelia appeared lost in thought. It seemed like she had been standing there for quite some time, her face reflecting a mix of despair and sorrow. Amanda, taken aback, questioned, "What brings you here?" In response, Amelia mustered a faint sneer, casting a cold look at Amanda and retorting, "Why wouldn't I be here?" Unperturbed, Amanda urged, "Feel free then," and proceeded down the corridor, avoiding any interaction with Amelia. However, Amelia's tone suddenly turned sharp, demanding, "Halt!" Reluctantly, Amanda turned back with a gloomy expression, making it clear that she had no desire to encounter anyone from Anderson’s family."What is your intention?" Suddenly, Amelia forced a miserable smile, resembling an injured little white rabbit. "Why do you have to meddle with my boyfriend?" She questioned with a gasp, her trembling nose bridge resembling a pitiful, dehydrated goldfish."Amelia, I'll say it aga

    Dickson looked at her from head to toe. His hawk-like eyes seemed to be seeking credit.Amanda took a deep breath and swiftly breathed in and out.She didn’t want to say anything now–not a single word.Seeing she was still silent, Dickson arrogantly pursed his lips and confidently approached her from the opposite side of the bed."Your daughter might have been dead without me! Don't you think you should express your gratitude?" he said. Facing Amanda, Dickson remained shamelessly self-assured, as if his actions were entirely expected.Amanda took a deep look at Dickson and had mixed feelings.She was naturally grateful to him. However, after hearing what he said, the gratitude suddenly turned into ashes."Say something!" Dickson insisted, reaching out to encircle her shoulder."What are you after?" Amanda questioned, her pupils narrowing, revealing a subtle sharpness.“Judging from his expression, he probably wants me to compensate him with that again!” Amanda thought. The last bit of

    Hearing the way Amanda spoke, Stella became angry once more and took it upon herself to react, "Has my son committed a crime? If at all he committed a crime, It's not for you to pass judgement!"Patrick watched the way Stella spoke and got furious as he cautioned her,"Shut your mouth immediately!" He then turned to Mandy, as he begged for her forgiveness, urging her to forgive Stan this time.Patrick pleaded, "Rick acted impulsively, but he has learned his lesson. Please forgive him this time; I'm kneeling before you, begging for it!" With those words, Patrick was seen kneeling before Amanda, who promptly responded, "Patrick, get up. Don't do this."Amanda was disgusted at the sight of Patrick kneeling before her. Knowing fully well that he is older than her.He didn’t bother about his age as he kept persisting."If you won't forgive Stan, I'll continue kneeling!" He was on the verge of kneeling again in front of Amanda. Annoyed and frustrated, Amanda took hold of Patrick, asking him t

    Exhausted, Stella exclaimed, "Must you involve the police in this? It's not a big deal."Amanda, taken aback and infuriated by Stella's comment, countered, "Not a big deal? You're downplaying it; Stanley committed intentional homicide!"Stella argued, "Your daughter is alive! At most, it's a prank. Why go to such lengths to send my cousin to prison?"Unwilling to prolong the argument, Amanda stated, "I don't want to continue this conversation. Let the police decide. They'll judge whether Stanley played a prank or committed a crime."Turning away, Amanda prepared to leave, dismissing Stella and Stanley. Stella, desperate, yelled, "Don't walk away from me!"Amanda firmly responded, "I won't engage with you." Realising Amanda's seriousness, Stella grew anxious.Amelia, feeling uneasy, remarked, "Intentional homicide? Stanley could face attempted murder charges even if he didn't take a life. In that case, he'll still be sentenced."Stella, dismissing the gravity of the situation, retorted

    Stella and Patrick’s expressions shifted as they began to suspect that Stanley might have abducted Amanda’s daughter. However, Stella was consistently unreasonable, always ready to argue even when lacking advantages. Despite this, Stella would staunchly defend Stanley, even if he were in the wrong. Stella yelled, “You can’t just do whatever you want to Stanley, no matter the circumstances.”Indignant, Stella untied her distressed Cousin, shouting, “Who do you think you are? How dare you harm my cousin like this?” Amelia delicately shook Dickson’s arm, suggesting, “Dickson, perhaps this is just a misunderstanding. Stanley is my friend’s Cousin. Can't we resolve this through dialogue? Why resort to violence?”Patrick also lamented, “Mandy, Stan is like your younger brother too. How can you harm him so severely? We're family; we should be able to talk things out. A sister shouldn't treat her brother like this.”Amanda countered, “Hmph. Stanley wouldn’t have done something so outrageous i
