After returning to the apartment, Marilyn asked Dominic to take a bath. She prepared clean and comfortable clothes for her son.

Then she hurriedly went out to the barbecue. She checked the time and thought it would be in time.

She checked the location. It was not far from her place.

It would take about twenty-five minutes for her to walk over. She walked along the river. It would be faster than taking a taxi.

Afraid that her son would be hungry, she walked very quickly. As she walked, she checked the position. She would arrive after crossing the bridge.

She smiled and glanced at the bridge not far away, which was among the weeping willows.

The sky gradually darkened, and the neon lights on both sides of the street kept flashing. The lights of cars passing by were dazzling.

Marilyn looked at the bustling scene and smiled.

She walked up to the bridge and took a look at the night scene. The willow tree had a shining colored light hanging on it, constantly changing colors as the lights fli

    Hearing Marilyn's cold words, Denise trembled violently.She couldn't tell what emotions were in her heart. They just flashed so fast that she couldn't grasp one.However, strong sadness spread throughout her whole body.Denise suddenly burst into tears. Her grievances from the past few days were released in an instant, like a dam breaking.Marilyn knelt in the water, watching Denise cry and vent her emotions."Perhaps after crying, Denise will feel much better," Marilyn thought.Malcolm and Julian had just finished their meal and went home on this way.Many people heard that there was someone committing suicide. They gathered there and caused a traffic jam.The cars in front didn't move, so Julian could only stop his car and move forward slowly.Seeing this, Malcolm, who was originally in a bad mood, became even more agitated.While Denise was crying, the ambulance arrived.Several medical staff carried Denise away on a stretcher.However, Denise was so sad that she held Marilyn's han

    Marilyn was slightly stunned. "It's strange. I can meet them everywhere I go. Why?""Ms. Chapman, is it really you?" Julian looked at Marilyn in surprise.Marilyn looked at them doubtfully and asked in surprise, "Why are you here? Who is injured?"Malcolm saw that she was covered in mud. She was dirty and her forehead hurt. He frowned and said, "Julian, go buy a set of clothes and shoes in a nearby store.""OK!" Julian nodded. He glanced at Marilyn and then turned to leave.He didn't want to stay with Malcolm at all.Marilyn looked at herself and knew that she was indeed in a sorry state.She had to change her clothes, so she didn't refuse.Malcolm took a few steps closer to her. The tall and muscular figure of him instantly enveloped Marilyn. Marilyn could feel his faint masculine aura and his chilly aura.Marilyn felt a little nervous as if the blood in her body was flowing back. She lowered her head and quickly took a step back.She had heard that Malcolm was a clean freak, so she w

    Marilyn calmed herself down and dialed Dominic's number.The call was picked up quickly and an anxious voice was heard. "Hello! Is this Mom?""Yes! Dominic, I encountered something when I went out. I might not be back tonight. Do you dare to be at home alone?" Marilyn was also worried about Dominic. But Dominic had always been sensible, and there should be no problem for him staying at home all night."Mom, what happened to you? Are you hurt? Did you call Uncle Roland?" Dominic was anxious, and he wanted to fly to Marilyn immediately."Dominic, don't call Roland. It's so late. Don't disturb him, okay?"I promise you that I am fine. I just want to accompany a friend of mine..."Marilyn comforted Dominic for a while and finally, Dominic believed her.After hanging up the phone, she returned the phone to Malcolm and thanked him before entering the ward.Malcolm looked at Marilyn's back and did not look back for a long time. The dim light elongated his shadow."Dominic wants Roland to come

    \Malcolm closed his eyes in pain. When Julian walked upstairs, he saw Malcolm's expression.Julian narrowed his eyes. "What happened to him?Marilyn's words provoked him?Was Marilyn injured? Who was he showing such pain to?"Julian scoffed.He walked to Malcolm. Malcolm, who had his head lowered, saw Julian and instantly restrained his emotions.He stood up and took the clothes from Julian's hand. Without saying anything, he walked into the ward."A weirdo," Julian cursed in a low voice and sat down on the bench to rest. He was exhausted every day.Malcolm entered the ward, and Denise and Marilyn looked at him.He glanced at Denise indifferently and walked to Marilyn quickly. His tone was neither fast nor slow, "Lynn, Julian bought the clothes. Go and change your clothes first."Marilyn stood up, took the clothes from his hands, and smiled at him. "Mr. Lowe, thank you. You can go back first!"She chased him away again. Hearing that, Malcolm frowned again."Go and change first." With

    Julian said without thinking, "Ms. Chapman, you're lying. How did you get blood on your skirt?"Marilyn looked down. She didn't feel it but the wound was bleeding.She looked up and saw Malcolm looking at her with a gloomy face.She instantly felt like she had made a big mistake and was caught red-handed.At that moment, Marilyn seemed to hear the roar of the furious lion in Malcolm's heart.She curled her hands slightly, like a child who had done something wrong with her head bowed, not daring to look at Malcolm.Malcolm looked at her knee. That faint trace of blood stung his eyes. A flash of anger rose inside him as he felt an impulse to strangle her.She literally dared to conceal it from him.He quickly squatted in front of her, carefully moving up her skirt with his slender fingers.There was a vertical wound that covered the old scar on her knee.He could see the shape of the old scar, which had been there for many years. It was slightly white in an irregular L-shape.Malcolm wa

    Julian looked at him and nodded, "Alright, I'll go now. This is your lifelong wish. Today, I'll settle it, and then I will not have to serve you anymore."Julian found it more horrible to see Malcolm like this than to see a ghost. He felt his heart might not be able to take it.Malcolm's reaction this morning dumbfounded him.He got up. No matter how tired he was, he had to satisfy Malcolm first. Only then could he enjoy his life.After Julian left, Malcolm sat on the leather chair. His deep black eyes were delighted and gentle as if his entire world had come back to him.At that moment, there was a slight noise coming from the room inside.He became alert instantly.He stood up and walked into the room, only to find Velma lying on the soft bed he usually rested on.Malcolm's face suddenly clouded over."Why are you here?" His voice was cold as he glared at her. In the dark eyes, there seemed to be a raging storm.

    Velma really ran out of the company.The words of Malcolm and Julian shocked her.After she returned to her car and sent a message to the manager of her department to take a leave, she drove after Julian.There were only a few agencies in Fielddell for DNA identification, and Velma could guess that Julian would definitely go to the largest identification agency in Fielddell.She followed him all the way and saw Julian's car.Her eyes were still red as she stared coldly at Julian's car.She thought, "Carolyn, I won't let you come back to the Remington family. Don't think about taking anything that belongs to me.You can only be dead forever."Velma bit her lower lip. Today, she was even more anxious than the night when she lost her virginity.Virginity didn't matter for rich ladies. Everyone was clear about their lifestyle.But without the identity of the daughter of the Remington family, she would lose everything.

And we'll invite Roland to come over and eat together.""Alright!" Dominic smiled and nodded, "Your cooking is delicious!"However... Dominic looked up at the wound on his mother's forehead. He narrowed his clear eyes slightly."Mom, you are injured."Marilyn smiled and glanced at him. He looked worried with his eyes clear and innocent as if she had deceived him.She smiled and said in a gentle tone, "Dominic, it's just a scratch. It's fine. Help yourself! It won't taste good when it gets cold later.""Alright!" Dominic nodded and had lunch, not saying anything else.After lunch, Marilyn took a shower. Staying up the whole night, she was very sleepy.After giving Dominic some instructions, she fell asleep on the sofa.Dominic was still reading the books he was interested i

    Jacob looked at him doubtfully. That night, he and Dominic met Malcolm in the Lakeside District.Jacob said, "You're asking me who was the legal person from before?"Malcolm said, "Yes, that was what I asked you back then, but Dominic was unwilling to answer this question. Now, can I ask you who is the legal person of that land?"When Jacob heard this, he instantly became nervous. Could it be that they had misjudged this time? Did they believe the wrong person?Malcolm looked at Debbie and his heart ached for her. This time, she seemed to be treated by her friend.Malcolm said faintly, "The person who bought this land is the cousin of Mrs. Remington's friend's husband. The two of them bought this land together, but after buying it, they found that no matter what they built, they would not be able to earn money. Moreover, they invested a lot of money in it, and the bank loan is even more difficult to get. The industry insiders are extremely secretiv

    In Marilyn's opinion, the entire real estate industry was lucrative.Edmund smiled and said, "Miss, you might not believe me if I tell you the truth."Marilyn also smiled, "Call me Lynn. 'Miss' makes me feel very uncomfortable, and I want to call you Edmund."Edmund was slightly stunned and replied kindly, "Alright, Lynn."Marilyn said, "Then tell me, Edmund! I will believe whatever you tell me!""Great! Then the truth is that your father cares about the unity of buildings and the surroundings very much. He wants his buildings to be harmonious and comfortable for the residents, the building itself, and the nearby environment.Do you know why there aren't buildings more than ten stories tall along Lakeside District?"It was surprising and fresh for Marilyn. She asked curiously, "Because it will make the whole thing not harmonious and balanced enough?"Edmund answered, "Sort of. It's an open secret for those who are familiar with

    Edmund was alienating Debbie and she felt ridiculous. She asked curiously, "Where are you going?"The price of the land Debbie bought was very high, and she regretted buying it. Now she had financing difficulty and she had to find an investor!Debbie thought Bradley was the best investor!Debbie had asked Bradley several times, but he refused to see her. In the past few days, she has been looking for opportunities to meet him.Last time Debbie came to see Malcolm for this, but because she hit Marilyn, Malcolm didn't want to help her.Edmund said indifferently, "Mrs. Remington, it seems unnecessary for us to tell you where we are going. We have things to do. We will leave first."Then Edmund looked at Marilyn gently.Marilyn nodded and got in the car.Edmund returned to the driver's seat.

    Marilyn looked at Velma coldly. Her eyes were pure and calm. "Why should I tell you? It's not your business. Get out of my way!""Marilyn, I won't let you go!" Velma looked at Marilyn and said stubbornly."What the hell do you want?" Marilyn said impatiently.Velma looked at Marilyn suspiciously and said, "Marilyn, you are allergic to mangoes and spinach, aren't you?"Velma had always suspected that she made a mistake, but she did not know what was wrong with it.Two paternity tests showed that Marilyn was not Debbie's daughter, but Velma still suspected Marilyn.Malcolm's attitude was abnormal, so Velma was even more confused.When Marilyn heard this, she thought of Velma's paternity test. She asked, "Why do you want to know about this?""You don't need to know why. You just have to answer my question." Velma looked at Marilyn arrogantly.Marilyn glanced at her and did not speak.Marilyn thought, 'Is Velma doubti

She didn't ask about Margie. She was worried that if asked, Marilyn would have no appetite. She always eats like a bird.Elvira wanted to ask her after dinner.After one glass of wine, Roland picked up the wine bottle again and poured two full glasses of wine.Marilyn saw it and said, "Roland, are you trying to get my father drunk? Drinking is harmful to the body. Besides, you have work tomorrow."Bradley laughed. "Don't worry, Lynn. Dad has a high tolerance for alcohol. I'm so happy tonight. Let's drink some more!"Roland also said, "Lynn, you don't have to worry about me. I also have a high tolerance for alcohol. You knew that. Moreover, I am delighted tonight.

    Denise, who was at the side, said, "Lynn, Elvira, Dominic, you haven't had dinner yet. Have dinner first!"Hearing this, Marilyn looked at her and smiled, "Denise, I feel hungry now that you reminded me. But let's wait a little longer. Dad should be back soon.""Alright!" Denise also looked at her and smiled warmly.Marilyn could not help but smile a lot more sweetly!She said, "Denise, you have been tired all day. Go get some rest!"Denise shook her head and said, "Lynn, I'm not tired. Now I have some people to help me, I will have a lot of spare time. I can also be at ease and come back early!"Marilyn asked, "Business must be good, right?"Denise smiled and said, "Lynn, this is all thanks to your family.

    "Malcolm, are you kidding?" Sergio looked at Malcolm in disbelief.Malcolm frowned and glared at Sergio. He thought it seemed to be wrong to tell Sergio these things."If you don't believe me, you can leave now!"With that, Malcolm sipped beer.Sergio became serious. He knew Malcolm would never joke about that.Sergio lowered his head and looked at the beer on the table. He then also picked up a glass of beer. He drank half of it. The alcohol cleared his mind.After finishing a glass of beer, Sergio had one more.He smiled at Malcolm. "Congratulations, Malcolm!"Malcolm held the beer in his hand and leaned against the sofa. He looked at Sergio with a smile. "Thank you!"Sergio said, "I know you will never lie to me!"Malcolm said, "Of course, my friend!"They smiled at each other and drank another mouthful of beer.The lights shone on their faces, making them look more handsome.Sometimes alco

    "I haven't decided yet. I'll think about it tomorrow." With that, Malcolm walked towards the refrigerator.Malcolm took out a few cans of beer, placed them on the table, and looked at Sergio.Malcolm said, "I want to drink more! Let's go!"Sergio glanced at the beer on the table and shook his head. "That's enough for me!""Then let's talk!" Malcolm sat next to Sergio.Malcolm didn't like alcohol. These beers were bought by Julian.Julian had bought them in case visitors like himself wanted to have a drink."About what?" Sergio looked at Malcolm calmly.Neither of them was talkative. It was hard for them to start a conversation.Malcolm thought for a moment and said, "Sergio, I love Lynn very much. I'll prove it with actions."The look in Sergio's eyes changed. Sergio quietly stared at Malcolm without saying anything.Malcolm continued, "I will marry her!""I know," Sergio replied faintly with his head lowered to hide his expression.

At this moment, even if she was unwilling to give up, there was no other way.After Margie's matter was over, she would continue her investigation.If there was a chance, she would meet Margie.She would feel better making it clear.Since Marilyn did not answer her, Laverne felt bored. She hugged her knees with both hands and leaned against the car seat, looking at the traffic stream in front of her."Mom, why aren't you talking? Don't you like Malcolm?" Laverne could not help but ask again.Marilyn smiled. "Laverne, there are many kinds of love. Which kind do you want mommy to have for Malcolm?"When Laverne heard this, she showed interest with a smile on
