Victoria stared dumbly at the toys on the ground, and a sense of relief unexpectedly overflowed in her heart. She comforted herself, "It's good that it's broken, so you don't have to go look for her. Nathan, see, this is fate stopping you from finding her."Little did Victoria know that she would be greeted by a fierce slap from Nathan. The force behind this slap was quite strong, causing Victoria to fly up in the air like a butterfly. She then landed heavily on the ground.Blood gushed out of his mouth instantly.Victoria stared at Nathan with her eyes wide open like copper bells, incredulous. "Did you hit me? Did you hit me for another woman? Nathan, I am your wife! How could you treat me like this?"Nathan's initial reaction was one of astonishment, shock, as if he couldn't believe that he had acted so ungentlemanly towards a woman.However, his self-blame quickly disappeared, and he let out a cold snort from his throat, expressing his dissatisfaction with Victoria, and then he lef
"Stimulating?" Thea's mind froze. She carefully pondered the doctor's words and replayed Victoria's impulsive and vulgar remarks in her mind."Do you like Thea so much that you would even let grass grow on your head?""Theo, you would regret it.""You have no idea how much Thea used to adore Nathan. Let me tell you, she was Nathan's lapdog. Whenever Nathan beckoned to her, she would unquestionably scurry back to him.""Nathan looked down on her, so she settled for you as a second choice. But now things are different, Nathan has fallen on hard times, and he remembers Thea's goodness. He is secretly giving her gifts and they have been secretly seeing each other for some time, while you are completely unaware..."Thea seemed to have realized something, and her face turned pale all of a sudden.When Victoria framed her and Nathan for rekindling their old relationship, Theo suddenly coughed up blood and fainted.What he ultimately cared about was her, after all. He cared about her even mor
Thea's lips curled with a sinister smile. "Victoria, haven't I told you before, don't provoke Theo. That's my bottom line."In Victoria's pupils, a touch of enchanting smirk emerged. She raised her hand and gently wiped away the bloodstain from the corner of her lips, causing a curved red centipede to trail down her chin. Making her look even more enchanting."You have crossed the line. That's great," she stood up slowly. "Thea, I also have my limits, and my limit is Nathan. You crossed my limit, but you expect me not to cross yours. Aren't you being hypocritical?"Thea frowned: What did she do to Nathan?She felt that Victoria was always fickle, with ever-changing likes and dislikes. She was also too lazy to inquire about the reasons.Thea saw the look of destruction in Victoria's eyes and couldn't help but shudder. Immediately, she came up with a plan. "Since you foolishly decided to provoke me, do you think I would give you a chance to harm Theodore?"Victoria saw Thea's pupils sud
Victoria's pupils suddenly dilated, as if she had discovered secrets hidden in the corners. The corners of her lips suddenly curled up wickedly."Thea, I knew how to destroy your Achilles' heel."Victoria fainted in pain.When she woke up, she was already lying in the hospital.A "kind-hearted" passerby took her to the hospital. She didn't leave, guarding by Victoria's side. When she woke up, she awkwardly and politely asked for her own expenses. "Ms., you finally woke up. Can you now repay me for the medical expenses I covered for you?"She handed a stack of payment bills to Victoria. Victoria, seeing so much money, was instantly shocked. "Why is there so much? Are you trying to cheat me?"The girl was instantly annoyed, "Why are you like this? I kindly took you to the hospital, but you accuse me of cheating you out of your money?"The aunt in the same ward sighed, "In today's society, it is difficult to be a good person."Victoria looked through her checklist and discovered that she
Victoria insisted on her point of view. "Yes, I am certain that my husband had an affair with Thea..."Thea asked, "Do you have any evidence?"Victoria said, "The evidence depends on the extent of the police investigation."The two police officers immediately frowned. "Mrs. Hill, are you saying that you didn't have any evidence at all? Yet you accused Nathan and Thea of conspiring against you?"Victoria arrogantly said, "Aren't these all your matters?"The police officer was speechless. Before the officer could get angry, Nathan pulled them aside and said, "My wife may have been traumatized and is experiencing some mental confusion. That's why she's making baseless accusations of me having an affair with Ms. Thea. How about I have a doctor perform a psychiatric examination on her, and if it proves that she has a mental illness, these accusations will be unfounded and end here."The police officers left with black faces.Nathan gave them a ride.At that time, there were only three peop
"What secret?" Thea turned back to Victoria.Victoria's eyes peered through the gauze, resembling two black holes, staring straight at Theo. The gaze contained mockery and a sense of threat.Theo's eyes were filled with astonishment, but the trembling hand hidden in his sleeve betrayed his nervousness.Victoria said, "Thea, if I told you that you and Nathan didn't actually have to end up estranged, that someone intentionally used dishonorable means to separate you, would you believe me?"The people present all had a change in their facial expressions.Nathan exclaimed, "No wonder, ever since you went abroad, you've changed completely. You have a deep hatred towards me. But I clearly haven't done anything outrageous. Thea, do you have any misunderstanding about me?"Theo kept his head down, his expression unclear. However, his guilty appearance was evident at a glance.Thea fell silent for a moment, then suddenly chuckled, "Nathan, you should really get her a psychiatrist. She's always
Nathan hired a caregiver for Victoria and then quickly left the hospital himself.Victoria's heart was filled with darkness, and Nathan's love for her was gradually fading away, fearing that there was little left.Once his last bit of love for her had vanished, they should have become strangers.Victoria did not dare to think about the future path, as there was no future.The next day.Theo got up early, even though the morning light had not yet appeared on the horizon.A person who never paid attention to appearance, today opened all the doors of the wardrobe and then carefully selected clothes one by one.At this moment, Theo finally understood the meaning of what women say, "There is always a lack of the outfit to wear for the day" in their closets.Thea, on the other hand, was as usual. After being awakened by the alarm clock, she got up and randomly picked out an outfit, although the color of the clothes was very festive. After a simple grooming, she opened the bedroom door and c
When he appeared in the restaurant, the nanny at home looked at him with a mysterious and secretive expression.Nathan found it very strange. Lately, he had been restraining himself and behaving properly, not causing any trouble, and definitely not shining as brightly as he used to when he was a prince. He should definitely not have become the center of attention for others.He repeatedly stared at the nanny and found that they were indeed scrutinizing him with a sympathetic look."Come here," he ordered coldly.The nanny approached him. Nathan furrowed his brow and asked, "What happened? Why are you looking at me like that?"The nanny hesitated to speak, "Young master, haven't you seen today's trending topic?"Nathan was uninterested. "I have never been interested in those miscellaneous online rumors."The nanny, however, was excited like she had taken chicken blood. "Young master, today's trending topic is related to our former madam."Nathan paused for a moment and said, "Thea?"He
Samuel howled, "But I didn't want to accept it."It was late.Drake came in holding a roster. He opened the roster, which had photos of the blind date participants - some with makeup, some without, as well as candid shots and work photos. It also contained the archival records of the individuals from birth until now."Please take a look."Kassidy eagerly took the boys' roster, while Samuel held the girls' roster and they both started flipping through them."Wow. They're all so good." Kassidy exclaimed enthusiastically, "So handsome and talented... I like every one of them. Except for this rich young man... What a nickname, 'Foodie'? This photo must have been photoshopped, definitely a chubby person..."She threw the roster to Drake, "Everyone except him."Drake smirked.Samuel pouted and said, "This chest is too small.""This hair color was too yellow." "This leg was a bit thick.""This waist would be perfect if i
Eric returned home and only then did he realize that his mother, Hana, had already been discharged from the hospital. Ingrid's attitude towards him had become much colder. In fact, she even showed a hint of disgust towards him."Eric, where have you been hiding these days when mom had a car accident and was hospitalized?"Eric, with the postoperative sequelae, was very weak and feeble, saying, "I had a little accident..."Hana finally noticed something unusual about her son, “What's wrong with you?"Eric lifted up the hem of his shirt, revealing the surgical scar on his lower back. "I had my kidney taken away by someone."Hana's pupils dilated, filled with fear. "How could this happen?"Eric closed his eyes in pain and said, "This matter is hard to put into words."Ingrid, who was skilled in calculations, immediately realized that the value of Eric's utilization had been discounted."You were not feeling well now, so will you b
Eric said, "Kassidy, please stop talking. I believe this wasn't done by you. Your character is just like your mother's, both of you are honest and kind people, who would never stoop to such despicable means."He lowered his head in shame and said, "I am getting what I deserved."Kassidy stared at Eric expressionlessly. It was strange, as once she had faced Nathan's myriad of turbulent and grand emotions, but now she was calm like dead ashes.In the end, she simply said, "I didn't mean to not save you. I truly didn't realize how difficult your situation was."With boundless hatred towards that man, Emma pleaded with Kassidy, "So now, could you please help us seek justice?" Despite the pleading tone, her voice was firm, tinged with a hint of reluctant inexperience.Kassidy stared at her coldly and said, "Why should I help you?"Emma was stunned, and then her little face turned bright red.Yeah, why did Kassidy save her?She shoul
Emma trembled as she asked, "Which place do you want?"The man's gaze fell on Eric's waist, “Kidney."Eric couldn't help but feel a chill run through his entire body, as if every nerve was connected to his heart. A sense of unbearable despair washed over him from his heart."I disagreed," Eric roared.The man looked at him with an increasingly cold gaze, “My son was sick. He was the same age as you all, but he developed kidney failure at such a young age. The doctor said he must have surgery as soon as possible, otherwise he won't survive this year. I won't let him die, so I must find a suitable kidney source for him... As long as he can live, I don't care about breaking the law..."Eric shouted impatiently, "You idiot, not everyone's kidney is suitable for him. If we give him our kidney, it could cause rejection, and your son would die even faster."Snap-The man slapped Eric in the face and menacingly said, "How dare you curse my so
The man's face darkened, and his eyes, filled with a predatory gaze, stared at Eric. "You wouldn't be deceiving me, would you? Eric, do you realize the consequences of deceiving me?"Eric was speechless, he was dumbfounded by the man's lack of intelligence. "My phone is in your hands, I didn't have time to tamper with it. Kassidy's phone number has always been stored in my phone. If you can't reach her, it's probably because her phone is currently with her."The man thought for a moment and felt that what he said made some sense. Then he took a deep breath and said, "Then I'll give you another fifteen minutes. If Kassidy doesn't call to confirm that you have some relationship with her, then I won't be polite to you."Time passed by minute by minute.Eric's heart grew more and more anxious. He didn't know if Kassidy would call back in such a short amount of time.As the moment of the clock was about to end, Eric's phone rang. Eric let out a sigh of
Eric looked at the screen, but Samuel's words kept echoing in his ears. Suddenly, he fell to his knees, covering his face with both hands, tears and rainwater streaming through his fingers.Yes, Isabella has always been well. She was strong and optimistic, born in adversity but with a heart to overcome obstacles. She was loyal to love and loyal to her family, so she could receive selfless love from her family.Isabella, who was so good, was looked down upon by him in his past life. Now, as he finds himself trapped in a quagmire and realizes the hardships Isabella went through, he discovers that he cannot be as good as her at all. Eric is overwhelmed with shame.He deeply realized that he was not worthy of Isabella.However, Eric soon emerged from the melancholy of lost love. He had to save Emma, and the longer he delayed, the greater the danger she faced.He got up and ran hard.This time, he couldn't help but run for a long ti
Thea suddenly touched her face and said, "Your mother was young and still had her charm. If she had married a middle-aged man who was a good match for her, they could have built a marriage together. Maybe they could have lived a comfortable and peaceful life. But your mother insisted on flattering William and indulging in unrealistic dreams. In the end, she lost both her dignity and her wealth.""Ingrid, remember my words well: Be down-to-earth and work hard in life. Don't try to take shortcuts, as those who seek to gain without effort will not have a good outcome.""By the way, also tell Eric these words."Thea finished speaking and left gracefully.Little did she know, Eric, hiding in the stairwell, understood her words perfectly. He was now caught in a dilemma: a grounded life?Can he still reach the height of his past life?After Hana was discharged from the hospital, faced with a large amount of compensation money, she had no choice but
Hana was so angry that she trembled all over, "I never expected you rich people to be so unreasonable and heartless."Olivia laughed in anger, "I never expected you poor people to stoop so low in your desperate attempts to climb the social ladder. Even resorting to using your own uterus. Oh, not all poor people are as spineless as you, my sister Thea has a lot of pride."Hana took a desperate measure, treating the dead horse as if it were alive, and said, "If William is not willing to take responsibility, then I will accuse him of negligence.""Oh, so you finally reveal your true colors, huh? If you have the guts, go ahead and sue. Do you have any evidence? If you do, bring it out immediately, and we will register this child's household registration right away. If you don't have any evidence, it's not you suing him, but us suing you for damaging William's reputation."Hana couldn't argue with Olivia and left in a huff.Olivia continued to playfully
Hana panicked, "William, I was just momentarily anxious and spoke without thinking. Please don't be angry, I won't say these nonsense words again in the future."William was exhausted and said, "Let it go."The other side.Hana heard the busy tone coming from her phone, and her face froze. She looked helplessly at the pair of children next to her and said with great disappointment, "He wants me to hit this child? Just because I said bad things about her daughter being selfish and self-centered?"Eric frowned, deeply experiencing the despair of having a teammate who was a liability. He weakly retorted, "How many times have I told you that William is obsessed with spoiling girls? If you're with her, the stepmother will have to treat you better than your own mother. But you foolishly want to compete for favor with Jade."Hana held her son's hand, tears welling up in her eyes. "Son, can you help me? How can I change his mind? I don't want to terminate
