"Now! Now is the perfect time!"

Miranda smiled. She knew Sally must be eager to see her. All she had to do was wait.

She took a spin around and found herself curious about the master bedroom. She opened the door and walked in. It was evident that no one had stayed there for a while.

She went straight to the wardrobe, where she found numerous women's pajamas, some with tags still attached.

There were a few sexy camisole nightgowns as well. She held one up against herself and twirled in front of the mirror. If she wore these and twirled in front of Nash, he would undoubtedly find her attractive.

She did not linger too long. There would be other opportunities she could wait for. Glancing at the large bed, she could not help but imagine scenes of passion with Nash.

Twenty minutes later, Sally arrived at Riverside Estate. She called out, "Miranda! Miranda!" at the door, but Miranda did not appear.

Not finding Miranda in the living room, Sally asked, "Where is she? Wasn't she s

    Zoe had no idea Sally would call her, and her temper flared. "What's the matter? Did Miranda tell you something? So what if I did something to her!""Where are you now?" Sally only wanted to confront Zoe."Why should I tell you? Who do you think you are!" Zoe stopped eating her nuts and swung her hand. She was just looking for a way to vent her pent-up anger.Sally sneered, "Are you scared now? Scared I'll come after you? I know your beauty salon got vandalized, and now you're hiding like a turtle!""Scared? Have I ever been scared of you all these years? If you hadn't married into the York family with William, I wouldn't even acknowledge you as part of our family!" Zoe retorted."Fine, then come out. Let's confront each other face to face!" Sally declared."Come out if you dare, Sally! If you want to confront me head-on and tear each other apart, then I won't give you any face either!" With that, Zoe hung up the phone and grabbed her bag to leave.Seeing this, Nina called out,

    "So you resort to any means to destroy one family after another! You never think you're wrong!" Zoe exclaimed. "I didn't do anything wrong!" Sally exclaimed, agitated. "You all forced me into this!"Seeing both of them so worked up, Miranda interjected, "Zoe, don't argue with Sally. She's just impulsive. I'm fine, I don't blame you. Let's all calm down.""It's none of your business!" Zoe looked at Miranda sharply. "You don't blame me, yet you tell Sally everything. You just want her to step forward, don't you? Hypocrite! You disgust me the most!"At this, Sally immediately shoved her. "Who are you cursing? Knowing that Miranda can't hear, you talk behind her back. How despicable can you be!""I may be despicable, but not as despicable as you!" Zoe pushed back."You're laying hands on me?" Sally glared at her. "Today, you'll pay for it!""Let's see if you can handle me!" Zoe wasted no time in engaging in a physical fight with her.When Nina and Scott arrived, they saw the scene

    "Nash." In the midst of the dispute with Zoe, Sally noticed his presence, and she was taken aback. Nina also glanced over and saw Nash's figure standing behind them. His expression was indifferent, seemingly unsurprised by their arguments. Instead, he accepted the fact calmly. Zoe was shocked to see Nash's gaze. In that moment, she regretted blurting out that he was not Sally’s biological son. It was undoubtedly a blow to him.Distracted, her gaze remained fixed on Nash. "Nash..."Nash remained silent. He knew they were at the cemetery and came over out of concern that something might happen.Sally, infuriated, exclaimed, "Zoe, what are you saying? You're intentionally making things difficult for me. You're truly despicable!" With force, she shoved Zoe.Zoe focused her attention on Nash so she became less hostile. She withdrew her claws, her mind preoccupied with the possibility of causing him harm. Unaware of Sally's action, she was suddenly pushed down the steps.Nina, sti

    "No...," Sally protested, "you're still my son. I regret it, and I've been trying my best to make it up to you...""I no longer need that," Nash said, his gaze icy. "Calling you 'mom' was my greatest concession. You should consider yourself lucky!"Sally could not help but step back, her voice trembling with emotion. "You can't treat me like this. You can't be like your father. Otherwise, what's the point of bringing you back?"Nash's tone remained cold. "The only point was to win back my father's heart. Unfortunately, all efforts were in vain!"Every word hit Sally like a dagger to her chest.Back then, her marriage to William was, to put it rather ironically, nothing but her forcing herself into it. William did not love her. In fact, he despised her. She thought that once they were married, he would be hers. Afterall, what's done was done.But she was too naive. William could stay out all night, leaving her alone. To win back his heart, she made countless efforts, even trying t

    While Sally was defending Miranda, Nina's expression turned cold. Seeing Nina speak up, Sally added, "Nina, look at the state of Miranda. Stop causing her more harm!" Her instinct was to protect Miranda.Approaching them, Nina saw Miranda crying, looking fragile and pitiful. "Why can't I speak up? Who among you is truly worried about Aunt Zoe? You're worried about your son doesn’t want you anymore, and Miranda is worried about being blamed. She's putting on an act to gain sympathy. We all saw Aunt Zoe being pushed, and you're the one who did it. Miranda, on the other hand, is likely the instigator!" As Zoe was rushed into the operating room with serious injuries, Nina felt no need to hold back. "Don't talk nonsense!" Sally snapped. "Yes, I pushed Zoe, but it was gentle. Why don't you mention that Zoe intentionally fell?"Nina looked at Sally. "That push wasn't gentle at all. We all saw it." Sally, feeling challenged, raised her voice. "Nina, who do you think you are to talk t

    Seeing his indifference, Sally called out, "Nash!" However, Nash did not want to hear her words and he walked away with a cold expression. Sally wanted to talk and patch things up with Nash. However, with Miranda crying and being bullied, she could not leave. She could only go over to help Miranda up, saying, "Miranda, get up quickly, stop crying." Miranda was supported by Sally, burying her face in her arms. "Sally, am I too annoying? Everyone seems to dislike me!" she sobbed. "No, no, I like you, everyone likes you," Sally comforted her, patting her back. Miranda continued to cry in Sally's arms. In this state, even if she was at fault, she turned into a victim, and no one dared to say a word against her. If it weren't for the hospital and so many people around, Nina would have wanted to give Miranda a good beating, tearing off her mask to see how good she was at pretending. Of course, she knew that no matter how much of it was true or false, Sally would still defend

    He did not argue with her, simply ignoring all her crying and fussing. To him, Sally's tears were worthless. But as a woman, Sally felt her defenses crumbling under her husband's indifference, leading her to become even more agitated. "Why won't you speak? Do you value Zoe more than me? I'm your lawfully wedded wife, William! You can't treat me like this!" Her eyes almost red with tears and she desperately wanted her husband to show some concern. Even a glance would help soothe her anger and anxiety. Yet William remained silent, treating Sally as if she were a stranger. Nash, observing their dynamic, was unfazed. He withheld any comment. To him, they were only nominally his parents. Growing up in this environment had made him accustomed to everything, even their indifference. Unable to bear Sally any longer, William rose and said to Nash, "I'm going downstairs. Let me know when Zoe wakes up!" Nash kept his gaze low, his eyes cold, offering no response. William did not wait fo

    Could he have known all along?She had heard Zoe mention it a few times before, but she had not given it much thought. Perhaps Nash had known all along and just never said anything."Nina," Scott approached her and gently said, "Why don't you take a break? You look exhausted."Nina had been standing for a long time and was starting to feel a pain in her back, but she wanted to wait for Zoe to come out. She sat down nearby and said, "I want to wait until Aunt Zoe wakes up.""I'll stay with you," Scott added.Nina nodded at him.Nash, with his tall frame leaning against the door frame, glanced over. The concern in Scott's eyes for Nina was almost palpable.Nina seemed to readily accept his kindness.A surge of irritation swept through Nash. His gaze turned colder, and he deliberately kicked the chair next to him, creating a noise.It was the chair Scott was sitting on. He looked up, and Nash said in a cold voice, "Sorry, didn't mean to kick it!""No problem," Scott responded

    The woman had deliberately spoken in a vague and ambiguous way. She had been sent by Summer, with Mrs. Lucas's covert assistance. Together, they had schemed to place a helper in the villa with a simple enough task with their combined influence. But to Jamie, the words carried a different implication. This was Lucas’s territory, which meant this woman had likely been instructed by Ben. If Jamie didn’t drink the soup, she was certain Ben wouldn’t let it slide. A wave of bitterness washed over her. “Fine, just leave it over there. I’ll drink it later when I’m thirsty.” “Miss Lewis, I need to personally see you finish the soup before I can leave. If you’re not ready to drink it now, that’s no problem. I’ll just wait here.” The woman placed the tray on the table, pulled a chair over, and sat directly in front of Jamie. Her stare was unrelenting, her attitude clear. She wasn’t leaving until the job was done. If it had been anyone else in Jamie’s place, the woman wouldn’t da

    “Don’t beg me. If begging worked, I’d have begged Ben not to leave a long time ago,” Winnie said as she wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. “Here’s the deal. I called to make one thing clear. Everything you owe me, I’m going to take back, bit by bit, through Charlie. He’s your son, and they say the sins of the mother fall on the child.” With that biting remark, Winnie hung up without hesitation.Clutching her phone, her chest ached with a deep, lingering pain. The masked man approached, standing by her side. “Winnie, what’s the point of all this? You’re clearly full of hate for Jamie, but instead of taking it out on her, you’re here looking after her kid. I don’t get you sometimes.“If it were me,” he continued, “I’d grab this opportunity and make her suffer. Why are you holding back?”Winnie shook her head. “Charlie calls me his aunt, and besides, it’s not right to blame a child for the mistakes of adults.”She might despise Jamie, but Winnie couldn’t bring herself

    On the day of the engagement banquet, Ben’s phone appearing near Jamie should have been a warning sign, but she missed it. Later, she had warmly welcomed Jamie into her home, showering her with care. She had even worried that Ben might dislike Jamie and tried to help them get along. And what happened in the end? While she had been tirelessly caring for them, the two of them ended up in bed together. Now, they were living under the same roof, while she and her child were left with nothing. How could Winnie not harbor resentment? Especially when she looked at Charlie, a chilling thought crept into her mind: If her own child’s life was ruined because of Jamie, then shouldn’t she retaliate by ruining Jamie’s child? An eye for an eye. But she couldn’t bring herself to do it. Every time Charlie called her "Aunt Winnie" with such innocence, it reminded her of the bond between them. How could she be so heartless? “I’m in Ben’s villa. He won’t let me leave,” Jamie

    Ben gripped Jamie's chin tightly, his voice firm and unyielding. When Jamie had disappeared from his life, he had exhausted every possible means, called in countless favors, and poured his energy into finding her. But he had failed. Just when he was on the verge of giving up, he had met Winnie. It felt like fate had stepped in, intertwining their paths once more, as if destined for a lifetime of entangled love and hate. If that was his reality, then he would play along with it.“Instead of plotting ways to escape from me, why don’t you focus on apologizing? Show me some sincerity, and maybe I’ll make your life a little easier,” Ben said.Jamie’s lips curved into a bitter smile. She knew what he wanted.He wanted an apology and an attitude of remorse. But she also knew she had no leverage to stay by his side.Even if she played along now, making him happy temporarily, there was no future for them. Mrs. Lucas’s disdain for her was an insurmountable mountain, and she couldn’t see

    Unfortunately, Ben couldn’t see through any of this. Summer, however, wasn’t the least bit intimidated. Shaking her head confidently, she said, “I’ve never done anything to upset him. I don’t believe that just exchanging a few words with him would make him kick me out.”Mrs. Lucas opened her mouth, about to say something, but seeing Summer’s confident demeanor, she hesitated. Maybe, just maybe, Ben might actually feel too awkward to reject her outright. And if a little covert manipulation were added into the mix…Suddenly, Mrs. Lucas had an idea. Hearing it, Summer’s eyes lit up with excitement. “Mrs. Lucas, that’s an excellent plan! We should act quickly before he does anything else irrational.” “Alright.” Though the plan was solid, the two of them decided to put it into action three days later. Meanwhile, Ben hadn’t been to the office lately, but he was still keeping track of all the firm’s cases. He was also trying to reach Winnie, but while her phone would ring,

    Ben wanted nothing more than to wring Jamie's neck after hearing her cold, cutting words. “I don’t need your lectures,” he growled. Human nature? Didn’t she think he knew enough about it already? He had seen it in every case he handled, and he had learned it the hardest way through her betrayal. When he fell for Jamie, it had been with the intent to marry her, to share a future. But she had stabbed him in the back without hesitation. And yet, when he tried to hate her, tried to wish for her downfall, he couldn’t bring himself to follow through. “Stay here and reflect on your actions, Jamie.” Ben knew her well enough. If she cried, begged for forgiveness, he would soften. But she didn’t. Instead, all she cared about was that child, the child he refused to acknowledge. “Fine,” he thought grimly. “Let’s see how long that bastard can survive.”*Meanwhile, Ben’s mother, Mrs. Lucas, had failed to convince him to cut ties with Jamie. This left her in a tough spot, especial

    Ben would never believe the truth, and his mother would never allow Charlie’s existence. Instead of creating chaos and an irreparable fallout, Jamie chose to keep it hidden. She thought that once Ben’s anger subsided, he would eventually let her go.“Even if you figure out who the father is, what difference does it make?” Jamie met Ben’s intense gaze calmly. “We’ve already said everything that needed to be said. Can’t we stop making each other’s lives miserable?”"Your mother offered so much money. Why wouldn’t I take it? I’m not a fool. I gave you up for one million before. After these past four years, do you really think there’s any love left between us? Do you honestly expect me to cry and beg for you?”Jamie’s voice was steady as she stared calmly at Ben. She had been scared at first, but over time, she had come to terms with her reality. Ben wasn’t going to kill her. And as long as she stayed alive, there would eventually come a day when he’d let her go. Right now, his anger wa

    The next second, there was only silence on the phone.Ben sent the phone number to his assistant. “Investigate thoroughly.”A thought suddenly struck him. He couldn't let Jamie continue to roam freely outside.*Four days later, Ben's mother came to visit. “You refuse to take over the family business, and now you're going against me by keeping Jamie around again?”Ben didn’t respond, but her anger only grew. “Ben, you’ve seen for yourself what kind of person Jamie is. Why are you still so obsessed with her? The fiancée I arranged for you is far better than the one you’ve chosen!”The Larson family was also one of the prominent families in Birkham. While the Lucas and Larson families couldn’t rival the York family, the Lucas family still held its position as the second most influential family in the city. On top of that, they were relatives of the Scott Lucas. Even Scott, who had initially resisted marriage, eventually followed his parents’ wishes and entered into a family

    Jamie closed her eyes briefly, sinking further into despair. She didn’t even notice when Ben had left the room. Her thoughts were scattered, her mind drifting in and out of focus.Though she wanted to leave the hospital, she was constantly watched, making it impossible. By afternoon, a nurse came in to change her dressing.Jamie glanced up absentmindedly. “It’s fine. I don’t need it.”“This is under Dr. Lawson’s direct orders,” the nurse replied gently but firmly. “I can’t afford to cut corners. Since you’re still admitted, please cooperate.”Jamie lifted her gaze slightly, her tone subdued. “I’d like to get some fresh air.”“Of course, once we’re done changing your dressing, I can take you outside. Just make sure not to strain your muscles,” the nurse said patiently.The weather was exceptionally pleasant that day. As she sat in the wheelchair outside, Jamie made several calls to Winnie. The phone was still off, as if Winnie had made up her mind to disappear completely from her
