Then, Thea, afraid that Sherry would cause trouble again, forcefully put her in the car and instructed Drake to take her back home.She looked reluctantly at the river, her phone nowhere to be found. Thea sighed, unable to keep her promise to call Thorne.I hope he doesn't blame her too much.However, it seems that after she had various concealments from him, his trust in her had already become thin and fragile. Adding tonight's incident, it will be even harder for him to trust her in the future.Thea walked along the quiet Riverside Avenue, heading towards the bustling downtown area. She hoped to buy a new phone as soon as possible.The other side.Haley sat in front of her phone, occasionally glancing at it.A quarter of an hour, half an hour... One hour, two hours later, the phone remained silent.Haley got so angry that she threw her phone directly at the wall. "Scammer," she gritted her teeth.But at this moment, the phone rang.Haley's cold and beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, an
This night seemed particularly long, as the faint morning light shot out from the east, Thorne had been aimlessly circling around this city.He was angry about Thea's no-show. He had been looking forward to her calling him, but she stood him up.It is said that she had him on her mind, but he didn't believe it.Thorne was filled with grievances. He drove back home. As he approached his doorstep, the twilight was hazy, and in the dim morning light, he caught a glimpse through the car windshield of a small, red shadow squirming at his doorstep.Thorne's car approached, and only then did he see clearly that it was a woman. She had her hands wrapped around her knees, burying her face within them. Her body trembled slightly due to the cold morning temperature.It was undoubtedly Thea.At that moment, the icy coldness in Thorne's heart was shattered. Moisture welled up in his handsome eyes. He almost immediately kicked open the car door and ran forward."Thea."Thea lifted her head from bet
Thorne lifted her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. "Thea, I am not a three-year-old child, nor am I a naive twenty-something. That kind of unrequited love, where life is not worth living, is not suitable for someone of my age and experience. I am not that immature." He finished speaking and angrily released her.Thea pinched her sore chin, her eyes welling up with tears. It wasn't because of the pain, but rather Thorne's indifferent and world-weary attitude that made her so upset.She truly believed that during the ten years she was absent, he was alive but not living a satisfactory life.She approached gently and embraced him gently."Since you are not absolutely necessary to him, may I make an unconventional request? Can you come home with me?" She looked at him, her eyes filled with fervent anticipation and a hint of unease.Her anxiety and unease fell like a drizzling spring rain in her heart. Thorne suddenly realized that while he was cautiously suspecting Thea's attitude towa
Thorne held Samuel in his arms, and the joy of being a new father spread throughout his body. He had always been frustrated before, feeling like he had no family or connection to the world. But now, with the arrival of such a smart and handsome son, he suddenly felt that all the hardships he had endured were worth it."Daddy, please don't marry Miss Wilson, okay?" Samuel pleaded, looking at him with a pair of teary eyes, pitifully.Thorne said, "Tell me the reason." He was very curious about Samuel's depth of thinking.Samuel said, "Because you married Sherry, Mommy will definitely be very upset. She has been having insomnia every day recently and taking sleeping pills, with the dosage increasing day by day. Uncle Drake and Uncle Frank said that if this continues, Mommy won't be able to handle it."A trace of surprise flickered on Thorne's face as he glanced meaningfully at the room where Thea was. His handsome black pupils suddenly filled with a gentle smile.Samuel pleaded with Thor
Thorne responded with endless silence.After that day, Sherry desperately staged the drama of chasing her husband. In her opinion, if Thorne could give her a chance, she would firmly seize the opportunity to rise in status. So she scheduled the engagement and wedding, but never expected, despite all her calculations, that Thea would appear.Sherry's eyes turned red, and she broke down crying. "I really loved my brother."Thea couldn't bear it in her heart, sighed, and said to Thorne, "Theodore, you already understand my feelings. But I also have my moral bottom line. When you and Sherry are in a complicated situation, I won't interfere in your relationship. I am leaving now with Samuel. When you have resolved this relationship, then you can contact me."After a pause, Thea choked out, "I respected any choice you made."After saying that, Thea reached out to grab Samuel, but Thorne did not follow Thea. Instead, he hid Samuel behind him and walked in front of Thea, pulling her towards t
"Is there a method to recover memories?" he asked while pouring tea.The Chinese dean shook his head in confusion.Thorne lifted the teacup, his deep black eyes glaring at him ominously, "If you dare to deceive me, I will make sure your entire family will never find peace."The Chinese dean's legs trembled. When did the gentle and jade-like Thorne awaken the demon factor?He looked at him in shock and asked, "Did you remember something?"Thorne said, "Actually, I remember a lot, but whenever I try to use my brain, I get a severe headache, forcing me to give up using it. I believe that with your exceptional medical skills, you must have a way to help me remember everything."The Chinese dean pondered for a moment and said, "Over the years, Mr. and Mrs. Sherry have been secretly causing trouble for me. It was you who protected me. You have been kind to me, and I am willing to help you fulfill your request."Thorne said, "Why did Mr. and Mrs. Sherry want to get rid of you? I didn't know
After dinner, Thorne voluntarily washed the dishes.Samuel looked at his father's back in the kitchen and said to his mother, "Mommy, Daddy is a good man. You should try your best to win him back. Otherwise, you will regret it for the rest of your life." After saying that, without waiting for Thea to scold him, he quickly ran back to his own bedroom.When Thorne came out, Thea was lost in thought.With fair and beautiful skin, an elegant temperament, and an otherworldly beauty like a fairy, she captivated Thorne's heart. He approached her and suddenly took her hand.Thea was startled by his sudden affectionate gesture, and she looked at him in fear, her whole body stiff.Thorne said, "Thea, the dinner tonight was delicious. I haven't had such a tasty meal in a long time."Thea smiled and said, "If you loved eating, I would often make it for you in the future."Thorne's enchanting peach blossom eyes overflowed with love, and he emotionally said, "After that, will you live with me, okay
Thea snorted coldly and left in a huff.Sherry became a little flustered, "Mom, what should I do? If she intervenes between me and my brother, I will definitely be completely out of the picture."Mrs. Wilson said, "Then arrange for you to marry Thorne as soon as possible. Better to avoid any unnecessary complications."Mrs. Wilson pondered for a moment and then said, "Sherry, immediately call him and trick him into coming to our house. We must not let him meet Thea before you two get married. We don't want any complications arising from Thea."Sherry gave a thumbs up to her mother and said, "Mom, the old ginger is still spicy."Mrs. Wilson smirked arrogantly and said, "Just tell Haley that your mom had a serious illness and her life was hanging by a thread. You don't know what to do during this time, so ask him to come and help you figure it out."Sherry was a bit conflicted, "Mom, is it okay to tell such a big lie?"Mrs. Wilson glanced at her daughter and said, "You know what! Thea i
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
"The brutal murder of the rental house sisters, why such haste in mutual destruction?" The headline quickly appeared on the trending topiclist. There is evidence with the pictures.When Thea saw this article, she was actually drawn to the characters in the pictures in the article.The little boy stood with his hands in his pockets, gazing at the little girl in front of him. The sunlight bathed him, making him look so divine.Like a savior.Thea, however, felt a chill running through her body.Eric and Emma finally met."What's wrong?" Thorne walked over, placing a gentle hand on Thea's shoulder. His gaze skimmed over the article on the phone screen, and Thorne sighed."Don't worry, it was me who arranged their meeting. I thought that once Eric and Emma met, he would forget about bothering us. After all, Emma's situation is enough to keep him occupied."Thea stared at Thorne and said, "I wasn't afraid of Eric and Emma meet
Eric crazily picked up the stick, intending to smash it down on the man's head again. However, for some reason, a trace of fear suddenly overflowed from his pupils, and the stick weakly slipped from his palm.Emma stood at the door and saw this scene, confusion welled up in her eyes.The man turned his head and saw that it was just a child. His previously panicked face instantly twisted into a grimace. He pushed Eric away and said, "Get lost, you little brat. How dare you ruin my good thing."Eric sat down on the ground, kicking weakly with heavy breaths.The man lost interest, he pulled up his pants, dropped a 100note, and walked away grumbling.The paralyzed woman, with a lifeless face, still managed to pull the blanket over herself.Emma looked at the woman with a puzzled expression and asked, "Don't you feel humiliated living like this?"A tear welled up in the woman's eyes, and her body visibly trembled. "Yes, I also wanted
