Thorne and Ruby's eyes lit up with anticipation when Thorne was mentioned. Her guard in her heart slowly crumbled. Finally, she seemed to gather up great courage and said, "Drake, will you accompany me to the hospital?"
Drake was ecstatic, “Rest assured, I will never leave your side."
Hospital.
With the joint efforts of the doctors, Lady Brown's critical condition was temporarily relieved. Those once lifeless eyes became clear again.
When Thea came to visit, she was able to recognize Thea at first sight.
"Thea?"
Thea felt guilty towards Lady Brown, after all, it was her who had gone to great lengths to investigate and uncover Olivia's case back then. She cleared Olivia's name, but also brought a storm into Lady Brown's life. It was because of Thea that Lady Brown's peaceful life came to an end.
Thea walked heavily towards Lady Brown and guiltily called out, "Grandmother. I'm sorry, it was my fault that you had such a difficult o
Ruby suddenly burst into tears."Perhaps she had already forgiven you," she said softly.Lady Brown, however, shook her head desperately, "She couldn't forgive me, I don't deserve her forgiveness. I was the person she loved the most and trusted the most in this world, but I hurt her deeply, I was her nightmare. I don't deserve her understanding."Lady Brown's heart suddenly contracted with a jolt due to her heightened emotions.Ruby panicked and called out, "Mom."Lady Brown widened her eyes, and a huge shock burst forth from them. She suddenly excitedly grabbed Ruby's hand... "Olivia, are you Olivia?"Ruby burst into tears and nodded, "I was."Lady Brown suddenly started crying again, "You must be happy, promise me, you must be happy."She didn't ask for her forgiveness, but only expressed her simple desire to be a mother. In the end, Ruby reconciled with her past and tightly held Lady Brown's hand, tears streaming down her fa
Thorne nodded, "Hmm. Very happy."After Lady Brown's matter came to a close, Thea received a text message from Ruby on a weekend, “Thea, Zenith Technology is hosting its annual gala tomorrow night, and I sincerely invite you and Thorne to attend our event."Thea almost instantly replied to the message, "Okay."Thea decided to give Zenith Technology a big gift. Considering that Zenith Technology was a new company and was worried about its business, she took the initiative to bring a cooperation contract over.Who would have thought that Ruby was also a thoughtful person. She also took the initiative to prepare gifts for Thea and Thorne, and even specifically had Drake deliver them to the Fletcher Manor."From Ms. Butcher?" Thea held the gift, pleasantly surprised.Just by looking at the gift box, one can perceive how meticulous Ruby was. The packaging box was a pile of persimmons, with a swallow flying in the sky. On the ground, there w
Ruby was very embarrassed and said, "I... I just feel that you all have the same values, our souls are connected, and we are truly a perfect match made in heaven."Thorne held Thea's hand openly and gently, saying, "Ms. Butcher, rest assured, Thea and I would be happy together for a lifetime."Ruby showed a relieved expression.The young people around exclaimed with envy, "Ms. Fletcher and Mr. Thorne had such a good relationship."Thea whispered teasingly to Thorne, "When did you learn to show affection? And you're quite good at it too."The atmosphere at the venue was harmonious and friendly.But the unexpected happened at this moment.The door was suddenly slammed open as Ruby's mother and brother stormed in.Ruby's mother came straight to Ruby and raised her hand, giving her a hard slap.Thorne stood up abruptly, his handsome face darkened."Rampant..."Ruby, however, gave him a look that said, "I'll han
The medical staff worked together to transport the pregnant woman to the hospital, but she broke her water halfway and saw blood."She was about to give birth," the doctor instructed anxiously, "Inform the obstetrician and prepare for surgery quickly."The pregnant woman looked in pain, the pain of contractions, which is already a human suffering. However, she tightly clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and with the utmost endurance, restrained herself from crying out.Thea stared at her intently, being a woman herself, she knew the pain of giving birth. She could sense that this woman possessed extraordinary determination.When the ambulance brought the pregnant woman to the hospital, the head of the obstetrics department personally greeted Thea. "Director, I have already been informed about the patient's condition. However, the patient needs a family member to sign the surgical consent form. But she doesn't have any family members. What should we do?
The man's mouth curved with a hint of indifference, and his eyes were filled with a strong sneer. "Can't Ms. Fletcher see it? This was my beloved at the bottom of my heart."Thea was burning with anger, “Your wife was risking her life to give birth to your child, and yet you were having an affair with another woman while still married to her. And even at a time when her life was hanging by a thread, you forced her to come out and apologize to your mistress? Are you even human?"Snap...The man unexpectedly slapped Thea.Thea covered her face, but instead of getting angry, she laughed, “With such an impulsive and easily angered personality, I suppose you often abused Daisy at home, right? No wonder she had to leave home during the late stages of her pregnancy. And she had so many wounds on her body too."The man pointed at Thea's nose and cursed angrily, "This was my family's matter, you should mind your own business."Thea squint
When mentioning the father of the child, Daisy couldn't hold back her emotions and instantly burst into tears. "I want to divorce him. He has deceived me too much."Thea asked, "After divorcing him, how did you, as a widow, live?"Daisy gritted her teeth and said, "His company was doing well. He made a lot of money over the years. I should at least take half of his assets when we divorce, after all, I helped him start from scratch and build this empire."Thea nodded silently.After a long time, he said, "If there is any place where you need help, feel free to come to me."Daisy said, "Ms. Fletcher, I have troubled you too much. Thank you."Thea accompanied Daisy for a while and chatted until Thorne urged her, "It's late, you should rest." Reluctantly, Thea left the room.Coming out of the room, Thea asked Thorne, "That child, she really looks so much like Victoria, doesn't she?"Thorne remained silent and finally cautioned her,
Daisy started doing live streaming online, and the content of her live stream was about her married life. At first, she talked about how she didn't want a dowry or a wedding, and just married her boyfriend like that. The comments were polarized, with some people saying she was foolish and would eventually suffer. Some people said she was so pure for love, and any man with a conscience would definitelyHer fans started from zero and gradually increased. During her second live broadcast, she talked about the difficulties of starting from scratch and living in a rented house with her husband. At that time, no matter how tough and tiring it was, their hearts were filled with sweetness. It seemed that even the heavens couldn't bear to see it and began to reward them. Their company gradually started to thrive and grow in size.The comments started pouring in, praising her overwhelmingly. Good deeds are rewarded.It was at this moment that the man suddenly called her.
The ignorant man, at this moment, only realized how completely he had lost. All the joy and excitement of winning the lawsuit, at this moment, had vanished.He attempted to contact Daisy, begging for forgiveness. Asking her to let him off the hook. However, he realized that he could no longer reach Daisy's phone.He felt inexplicably fearful and even more puzzled: why did Daisy, who had nothing, have the courage to cut off all contact with him?She had no money, how was she supposed to live?At that moment, she discovered that Daisy had started live streaming to sell products. Damn it, it seemed like the business was doing well. No wonder she didn't want to deal with him.What's even more terrifying is that her enthusiastic fans, like detectives, helped her collect various pictures of him together with his secretary.They laughed on the carousel, dined in a fancy hotel, embraced at the airport, and kissed in the garden.There was also
Upon returning to the Brown Manor, Thea was well aware of all the significant events that had occurred over the past few years.Ruby had already transferred the Brown Manor to Thorne's name, so Thorne is currently the owner of the Brown Manor. Although Thorne has been absent from the martial arts world for many years, legends of Thorne are still widely spread throughout the martial arts community.Samuel rose to fame at a young age, with a halo surrounding him, but the reputation was mistakenly attributed to Thorne. Many people assumed, "Samuel has Thorne as his genius father, like father like son. Samuel must naturally be so talented."And Thea's fame gradually faded away.In addition, Ruby's background has been speculated by various people. Especially her past experiences have been dug up, and her former teachers and classmates have added a lot of mystery to her identity, “Ruby was originally born into a common family, her parents favored boys ove
Thorne looked mysterious, “I hope I was just being overly cautious."The Brown Manor.When Thea and Thorne returned to the Brown Manor, Ruby held a grand welcome ceremony for them.Unlike the desolate, lonely, and quiet atmosphere of the Brown Manor in the past, the Brown Manor now is immaculate everywhere, with servants coming and going, and decorations such as red lanterns and agate are abundant, adorning this huge villa. The villa has become extraordinarily noisy.Thorne and Thea were stopped by diligent security guards at the door, who asked, "Sir, Miss, who are you looking for?"Thea and Thorne exchanged a smile, and just as they were about to explain, they heard an excited voice coming from inside."Thorne?"The security guard saw Ruby, respectfully bowed his head, with his hands hanging on both sides, and called out, "President."Ruby walked up with a smile and said to the security guard, "You must look carefully,
Thea took the glass of water and smiled gratefully at Thorne. Perhaps it was the overwhelming sense of crisis in that moment, or maybe it was to teach a lesson to this naive young girl, but Thea unexpectedly blurted out affectionately, "Thank you, husband."Thorne's beautiful pupils dilated, and a sweet smile overflowed from the bottom of his eyes. His heart felt as if a hundred flowers were blooming.This was the first time Thea called him her husband.Perhaps sensing Thorne's delight, Thea's face involuntarily turned red. She shyly tugged at his sleeve and said, "I..."Thorne, however, rewarded her with a kiss on the cheek and joyfully said, "Let's call each other like this from now on. I like this nickname."The young girl indeed looked skeptical, “Are you really a couple? Does she never call you husband? Hmph, I knew you were lying to me. You definitely aren't a real couple."Thea felt both ashamed and excited. She was ashamed that
Thea broke out in a cold sweat. She had always been unstoppable in the mall and had never really been afraid of anyone. However, when faced with the young girl's provocation, she did feel a bit fearful.The mood instantly became unattractive.Thorne saw the deep self-doubt and timidity in her eyes, and he hugged her with a heart full of pity. He regretted it at this moment. He had lived too comfortably, always finding trouble and insisting on teaching her how to express love on such a beautiful day. It made Thea lack confidence in many ways, especially when facing this shameless young girl, Thea's aura was very weak.Thorne held her tightly, encouraging her, “She was young and foolish, unaware of her own limitations. Clearly, she couldn't compare to you in any way. She wasn't as beautiful as you, nor as intelligent, and she lacked your grace, maturity, and wisdom. Most importantly, she didn't hold the same significance in my heart as you do."Thea s
She was afraid of trouble and always felt that life should eliminate complicated forms, the simpler the better.Just seeing the old couple's faces that couldn't calm down for a long time, Thea felt that maybe she was wrong.At this moment, the old lady walked over and handed her a flower, saying, "Young lady, I am passing on the happiness of my golden wedding anniversary with my old man to you."Thea felt a little disappointed. She had just had an argument with Thorne last night. She really didn't know if she, a person with low emotional intelligence, could still keep someone as excellent as Thorne.The old lady seemed to sense her sadness and comforted her with a smile, "Girl, is that tall and handsome man inside your husband? I can tell, he loves you very much. Although he came out last night, he sat at the door, his gaze fixed on your room."Thea smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, I also loved him very much."The old lady looked at Thea and
After hanging up the phone, Thea fell into deep thought.She pondered with great effort: the difference between a lover and a sibling? She asked herself sincerely, she regarded Thorne as family, as her closest person. As for whether they were siblings or lovers, she had never carefully distinguished, she felt it was not necessary to nitpick like that.Ah, I thought for a long time, but there was no result.Finally, Thea lay down on the bed, staring at the ceiling and continuing her mental battle.Thorne made dinner and brought it in."It's time to eat."Thea cautiously glanced at his face, making sure he wasn't angry with her, and that he had no intention of continuing their cold war. She cheerfully got up."Thorne, the noodles you cooked were delicious," she switched to praise mode.Thorne glanced at her. He sometimes didn't understand why Thea, who was clearly intelligent and sensitive, was so careless and casual when it came
Thea also never thought about hiding it from her family and told them the truth, “I saw Ezekiel, and he seemed to be cursed by fate. Both turning points in my life were related to him, and I always felt like I brought him bad luck."William was surprised, “That is something to be grateful for. Let's donate some money to the church."Thea said, "This was natural."Thorne looked at Thea's still furrowed brow and speculated, "Did he have any instructions for you?"Thea nodded silently."Ezekiel told me to avoid a certain person in the future. This person would bring me a disaster. However, Ezekiel did not tell me who this person was."As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone present became extremely solemn.Thea suddenly smiled brightly and said, "Just be happy, this is just a prophecy. It may not be true, and even if it is, as long as we find a master to help me before that, I'll be fine."Thorn
Thea looked at the man in front of her, who was no longer young, and realized.Over a decade has passed, things have changed, and she is no longer the girl who was bullied and helpless. However, Ezekiel is also no longer the hypnotist who wandered the earth with a carefree attitude."How come you are here?" Thea was surprised.Ezekiel said, "I had my way of living."Thea's eyes instantly turned red, “Anyway, I have to thank you sincerely for helping me so much back then.""Ezekiel, I know you are not an ordinary person. You know the past lives of people and also know how to resolve someone's heavenly tribulations. I was ignorant when I was young and didn't know that this was actually revealing secrets of the heavens. I suppose revealing such secrets must be bad, and I don't know about you..." Thea's words were filled with concern.Ezekiel smiled faintly and said, "You are clever. I did indeed reveal many secrets, so I faced many conseq
Stella had a gloomy face, looking dissatisfied, “She is so wealthy, logically speaking, she should have waived all your medical expenses. Rich people are really stingy when they have more money."Daisy scolded Stella, "Sister, one should learn to be content."She felt a bit cold in her heart and inexplicably uneasy: If Stella doesn't even understand gratitude for Thea's sponsorship, how could she possibly be satisfied with her efforts towards her?Daisy felt confused about her future. She felt fearful about the future of her children.After careful consideration, Daisy hired a nanny for the children. However, this action made Stella angry. "Do you have so much money to burn? With me here, why do you still need to hire a nanny? You might as well give me the money you spent on the nanny, and I will take care of the children with double the dedication. Do you trust a stranger more than your own blood-related aunt like me?"Daisy could only awkwa
