On their way over, Kyle had decided that he was going to rip Valerie into pieces, and his team of lawyers were already on standby. As Kyle held Sonnia's hand, she felt a sense of security in an instant, and it was only then did she slowly release the knife. It then fell into Kyle's hand. Then, Kyle shot a warning glare at Teddy, who was holding his daughter's bloody corpse, before snarling at him, "A**hole, this is our last warning to you. If anyone from the Durrett Family tries to intrude on the Michel Family again, what happened to your daughter will happen to you too!" Meanwhile, Teddy remained silent and motionless as he held his daughter. Just then, the corners of his lips curled up into a sinister smile, but two streams of tears were flowing down his face. Pointing the knife with Valerie's blood at him, Kyle warned, "Next time, I'll chop you and that brat up." As he spoke, he pointed the knife at Klaus as well, who was watching the whole thing. Just like that, Klaus, an in
Nathan had also been worried that the child would be frightened and had informed Hilda in advance to protect the child. To his surprise, the both of them had killed Valerie themselves. If anything, that saved some time and lessened the risks. Upon seeing Hilda's frown, Nathan tried to persuade her. "Come on, you have to eat something. Even if you didn't kill her, she was still going to die today." Of course, Hilda knew that, but she still felt grim about it. After all, Teddy was Connie's good friend, and he had lost his daughter... No, he still had a child on the way. His daughter deserved to die anyway! Thinking about it this way, Hilda felt better. Kidnapping Ryan was already a violation of the law, so their actions could be considered self defense. At the end of the day, however, she still killed someone. As such, she ate more vegetarian dishes to feel better about not having any animals harmed for this meal of hers. At that moment, the little twinge in her heart was almost
Valerie had been harassing Kyle for a long time, yet Kyle had never once taken any action because he was Nathan's close friend and neighbor whereas the Durrett Family and Jordan Family were family friends. Moreover, Kyle respected Connie, which is why he let Valerie get away with what she did over and over again otherwise, he would have chopped her up himself long ago. Furthermore, she had advised Teddy and Klaus many times to restrain Valerie. Unfortunately, Valerie never once took Klaus seriously while Teddy condoned her behavior. Ultimately, this was their family affair, and Connie could only do so much without straining any of the relationships. At that moment, Connie thought that she should have been more assertive then. If she had been, perhaps this situation would not have happened. "I'm also responsible for this incident. As for the Michel Family, I'll be sure to put in a good word for you." Connie replied. The Durrett Family were considered outsiders. Although they wer
In contrast to Teddy's distress and madness, Klaus remained calm and clear headed. "Teddy, I understand how you feel, but I have to take into consideration the Durrett Family and Durrett Group as a whole too. Valerie has got only herself to blame for her death, and the Michel's are already kind enough for not holding you accountable. In fact, you hold the greatest responsibility for Valerie's incident. If you had listened to me earlier and kept her within bounds, she would not have been so bold to go after Kyle's son." "Then, the Durrett Family and Durrett Group would not have to pay for the consequences of your incompetence in disciplining your child. If you insist on demanding an explanation for Valerie's death, please make a clean break with Durrett Family and the group, and use your personal wealth to hire a lawyer for legal advice. The group and the family too will make an announcement as soon as possible to declare that we're no longer connected to you anymore, and that we wil
This time, Valerie had only herself to blame. The Michel's had pulled strings with the related officers and effortlessly, it had been ruled that they were acting in self defense. The Durrett Family was unaffected by Valerie's death at all while their insurance company operated as usual. They had even made a fuss about Valerie's death and demanded compensation from the Michel's. Sharp witted, Klaus had taken the opportunity to eliminate Teddy after Valerie's death and had profited from Valerie's misfortune. On the other hand, Teddy had lost everything overnight and had to live under Connie's protection. Connie's implication had been very clear. She would not meddle with the Durrett Family's internal dispute, but she was determined to protect Teddy's and his unborn child. By rights, Klaus shouldn't be so unsensible to provoke Connie at this moment. However, he actually had the nerve to do so. He was determined to not let the child be born. Meanwhile, at the Imperial. "No more dogs
Stunned, Teddy had not expected Hilda to be aware of the truth. Nevertheless, he continued acting dumb. "Abort my child? Why should I?" Hilda did not beat around the bush either and cut straight to the point. "I dislike the child in her stomach, and I won't allow him to be born. If you refuse to give him up voluntarily, I'll help you to get rid of it in person." With that, she stood up and left without saying a word more to Teddy. Leaving aside how Teddy obtained Connie's gene, Hilda would definitely not allow the child to be born into this world. Things would only get more complicated if she was to dig into it. She was well aware of Teddy's personality. If the child was born, he might grow up to be a second Valerie and would even rob her of Connie's heritage and favor. At the thought of Connie being the mother to Teddy's child, Hilda felt disgusted as if she had swallowed a dead fly as she could picture someone like Valerie sticking around Connie and calling her 'mom'. Watchi
Wearing a matching outfit with Luna, Nathan looked at Luna delightedly as she chattered like a joyful lark. However, he turned around to find Hilda wearing a long face. "Are you okay?" Nathan asked concernedly. Hilda forced a rueful smile and said, "I'm fine." ....... She had not brought up the matter to Nathan because she didn't want him to become aware of it, nor did she want Luna and the other family members to discover it. However, she had told Thomas about it. "Are you sure you want to do this?" Thomas furrowed his brows upon hearing her plan. Hilda would always come to Thomas whenever she had a problem. He was like a walking encyclopedia for emotional issues. He would be able to provide extraordinary solutions and clear analysis for all kinds of troubles including relationship disputes, psychological issues or even irregular menstruation. Even so, there was no progress between him and Rex yet. "Yes, I’ve made up my mind." Hilda answered determinedly. Thomas heaved a s
The two siblings stared at Connie with mixed emotions as they awaited her response. Looking at Teddy and thereafter gazing toward Hilda and Linux, Connie felt extremely conflicted. Hilda and Linux would undoubtedly still be her most precious children, but Teddy's unborn baby was her child too. How could she bear to annihilate the child when it was already a four month old fetus? Teddy continued. "Klaus won't allow my child to be born. Connie, I've once had the thought of using this child to tie you down. However, now that Valerie is gone, I've lost all my kin. All I want is this child and nothing else.." "I need this child. He is my only hope to stay alive and I can't afford to lose him! For the sake of our many years of friendship, please, I'm begging you to save my child and I." Feeling extremely afflicted, Connie closed her eyes. She knew whatever she said now would be useless because she couldn't possibly ignore the child after he was born. After all, the child was her offs
