The video displayed a face identical to his own. Just as expected!Before Maxwell could speak, Kevin got straight to the point, "Where is Flora?"His tone was indifferent, but a hint of urgency could be detected. This small piece of information revealed Kevin's disturbed state of mind, just like Maxwell.Flora White! Truly a capable woman. Anyone who encountered her seemed to lose their composure. Even Kevin, a steady man like him, was driven to madness by her! This matter seems to be not as simple as he imagined it to be!"What? Have you fallen for her?" Maxwell sneered, tauntingly."I'm only concerned about my subordinate. There's no need for your sarcastic remarks," Kevin replied, displeased.He hadn't seen Flora all morning. After asking Chloe, he learned she had been dismissed by Mr. Maxwell. He couldn't help but worry about what Maxwell might do to her."Gambles often lead people to end up betting themselves," Maxwell sneered. Leaning back, he rested one hand under his chin and
Inside the Davis' mansion, the lights were decorated, and guests were flooding in. The air was filled with the aroma of fine wine and food. Soft music filled the entire mansion, and the guests were all laughing, except Mrs. Davis, who stood at the door anxiously. In her heart, she cursed silently, wondering if her dear son dared to sneak away from her again.Although she had secretly invited several beautiful young ladies for him, it couldn't be possible for him to skip this grand feast, right? With all the guests present, the main character still hadn't arrived. The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became, pacing back and forth on the spot."Mrs. Davis, why hasn't Kevin returned yet?" Betsy Black walked out from inside, boringly asking, standing by Mrs. Davis' side while gazing outside. She had been waiting all night and couldn't even catch a glimpse of him!Mrs. Davis turned around and patted her shoulder, reassuringly smiling, "Betsy, I'm sorry. Kevin probably got de
"What?" Mrs. Davis, hearing him say that, stared at him in disbelief. What was he talking about?Seeing her bewildered, Kevin lightly laughed and said, "Mom, I'm kidding. Didn't you see it? I'm fine!""Oh..." Mrs. Davis finally breathed a sigh of relief, patting her chest and murmuring to herself, "As long as you're okay. You scared me to death!"Kevin glanced at the messy room, apologizing, "Mom, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to stand you up. Something happened on the way, so...""Oh, it's a relief you came back safely. Are you hungry? Come, have something to eat." Mrs. Davis pulled him to sit on the sofa.After the scare, she realized how important Kevin was to her. She had long treated him as her own son, and the Davis family needed him. She couldn't afford to lose him! Suddenly realizing her foolishness, she had been idiotic enough to use her son as a pawn, attempting to use him to retaliate against the Smith Family! Revenge was necessary, but she couldn't drag Kevin down, or she might
Maxwell, who was initially softened by her bleeding hand, grew cold again upon hearing her words. He grabbed her wrist, pulling her into his arms. Looking down at her, he said in a cold voice, "You still don't repent until now? I hate people like you, full of lies!"Dare to do but not to admit! If she had the face to have secret affairs with other men, she should have the courage to admit it! He detested women like her, who engaged in promiscuity and then pretended to be innocent, deceiving others with a feigned look of innocence."I haven't! Let me go!" Flora, in a state of panic, lowered her head and, in retaliation, bit down on his wrist.Maxwell grunted and quickly shook her off. Flora took a step back, holding onto the doorframe to avoid falling to the ground.Flora stared at the two rows of teeth marks on the back of his hand, breathing heavily. Suddenly, she felt a sense of revenge. This bastard man! She wished she could bite him to death and be done with it. As long as this ba
The room fell into a brief silence. After eating a little, Maxwell greeted Mrs. Smith and got up to leave. As he walked out of the dining room, he coincidentally encountered Nancy, who was preparing to go upstairs with breakfast. Without hesitation, he called out, "Wait!" Nancy looked puzzled, halted, and turned to face Maxwell, asking, "Is there something you need, Big Young Master?" Maxwell glanced at the food on her plate with an expressionless face and said, "Send up a little more." Suddenly, he remembered Flora wolfing down her food like a starving wolf yesterday. He thought maybe the portions sent to her were insufficient. "What?" Nancy exclaimed in surprise, looking at him. Did she hear correctly? Was Big Young Master asking her to send up more food? Wasn't he heartless towards Flora just a moment ago? Why the sudden concern for her meals? Seeing the displeasure on Maxwell's face, Nancy hurriedly muttered an "okay" and went back to the kitchen to prepare more food. Maxwell
"Help! Save my child..." Flora murmured in pain, the abdominal agony making it nearly impossible for her to speak.Cold sweat instantly covered her forehead, and blood stains shamefully marked her body. However, she didn't know where the blood was coming from because her entire body was in pain, and the distinction between what was and wasn't hurting had become blurred.Gradually, the garden became lively, filled with onlookers eager for a spectacle. Nancy glared at Flora, who was curled up in pain on the ground, bloodstains covering her. She watched coldly and prevented anyone from approaching Flora, enjoying the sight of her suffering and the continuously flowing blush of blood.On the other side, Maxwell was diligently working in his study, listening to the faint commotion coming from the yard with a slightly displeased expression. Just as he reached for the intercom to instruct Nancy to quiet them down, the study door was suddenly pushed open.Robin rushed in like a gust of wind,
"No," Maxwell gritted his teeth, without hesitation. How could he possibly want a child with an enemy? How could he want a child with someone he didn't love? It was a question he didn't even need to consider!His words chilled Flora's heart to an icy point, her face turned ashamedly pale. Maxwell! He truly was a heartless and cruel man! A demon who would even willingly kill his own child!Cold, bone-chilling coldness spread from the depths of her being, coursing through her veins and reaching every limb. Even her expression and voice turned cold, "Since that's the case, there's no need for me to lie and say this child is yours."Maxwell was taken aback. Even though he had already guessed the result, hearing her words still hurt him deeply. He closed his eyes with a slight shake of his head. Disappointment and anger intertwined, surging over his heart like a tide.His broad hand clenched into a fist and slammed down forcefully. Flora quickly closed her eyes, not waiting for the pain be
"Of course, get rid of it. Why keep it?" Mrs. Smith scolded displeasedly. She expressed great dissatisfaction with Doctor Alan's unnecessary question. Did they still want Flora to keep this child to continue tormenting Maxwell?"Well, yes... I'm sorry, madam." Doctor Alan stammered, apologizing sincerely. He cursed himself for being too talkative! To avoid angering Mrs. Smith, he quickly retreated.As Doctor Alan passed by Maxwell, he bowed slightly, and Maxwell glanced at him, calmly saying, "First, let her recover before dealing with her child." With that, he walked away without looking back.He still couldn't bring himself to forcefully kill the child in Flora's belly, even if it was Kevin's child, even if he hated it to the bone! The shame associated with it weighed on his head. He could even imagine Kevin's triumphant handsome face, announcing victory with a smirk. He didn't dare to think about it!Yet, there was a faint anticipation in his heart, hoping that Flora was deceiving
