"With that being said, you don't need to worry about anything. All you need to do is forgive me and help me get on Warren's good side. "Do that, and my dad will assign all of our family's cases to you. What do you think?"Clara had said she was there to apologize, but her stance remained all high and mighty.Evelyn chuckled.After that, she replied mercilessly. "I don't need your apology, nor do I need those cases. How Warren treats you is his business, not mine."Don't come looking for me again. You are not welcome here, so please leave."Evelyn turned around to leave as soon as she finished speaking.Clara suddenly scoffed behind Evelyn."Ms. Jefferson, I know that your father has been cut off from the rest of the family. Your grandmother has taken away most of his assets, and he is in urgent need of a business partner."Go talk to Warren for me and convince him to forgo making me go to the mausoleum. If you agree to do that, I will get my dad to help your father get back o

Clara's plan to hurt Evelyn failed. Worse still, she still had to go to the mausoleum the day after.That put her in a bad mood, so she went out for a drink with her friends. She ended up drinking too much and had to have someone drive her home.She gave the driver an address, then rested against the backseat feeling woozy.There was no saying how long the car had traveled before it finally stopped.Clara thought that she was home, so she opened her eyes.Unfortunately, all she saw was a secluded field.She instantly realized that she had been conned.It had just occurred to her to open the door to flee when a black hood was put over her head.What followed after was a series of beatings.All Clara felt was her organs hurting. It was as though they were being crushed.She wanted to shout for help, but someone stuffed something in her mouth. That item reeked and made her nauseous.There was no saying how much time had passed. Clara was aching all over from the beating.Like

Warren said hoarsely, "Did you listen to Dad and take good care of Mom?"Bailey barked twice.Warren hooked the bag in his hand around Bailey's neck and smiled. "This is a present for you and Mom. Can you give it to her for me?"Bailey yapped obediently and ran toward Evelyn.Evelyn had just run five miles and was now sweating buckets. Seeing Bailey dashing toward her, she fell backward onto the grass. She petted Bailey's head and reprimanded him gently, "Didn't I tell you not to take things from strangers? Why are you so naughty?"With a smile, she took the bag off Bailey's neck. Just as she was about to look inside, a familiar, deep voice rang out nearby. "I gave it to him, not a stranger."Evelyn's smile instantly froze. She slowly looked up to see a tall man standing in front of her. He was wearing a black shirt and gray slacks. His defined brow looked even more chiseled under the warm yellow light, and his dark eyes quietly and cautiously observed her.After a few moments

Warren drove home hastily. A bad feeling washed over him. It was true that Evelyn didn't intentionally miscarry.He felt as though his heart would jump out of his throat.He parked his car right outside the foyer of his villa. When Miriam noticed him, she went out to welcome him. "Mr. Larkin, while I was cleaning out the closet, I happened to find the medicinal herbs that Ms. Jefferson used to drink. However, one of them causes miscarriages in pregnant women."When Warren heard this, his cold gaze grew even icier. Evelyn suffered from period cramps, so he sought out a holistic doctor to treat her. According to his calculations, she had taken these medicinal herbs for three months.Staring at the herbs in Miriam's hands, he asked quietly, "How are you so sure?""My grandfather is a holistic doctor. I learned a lot of medicinal theory from him when I was younger, and I remember this medicinal herb in particular.""And you didn't notice anything strange before this?""Ms. Jeffers

It also happened to be the day before Evelyn's birthday when she refilled her prescription and took the herbs. And on her birthday the next day, when Warren went to save Clara, she miscarried.In other words, if he hadn't taken her to refill her medication, they wouldn't have lost their child.No wonder Evelyn said that he was the one who killed their child.Now that all his memories had been unlocked, despair and sorrow filled his gaze.He remembered Evelyn asking him that day what would happen if she fell pregnant. At the time, he had warned her not to use children as a weapon. He had been very diligent at using protection, so there wouldn't even be a child.It turned out that at that time, she had already suffered the pain of losing their child. Yet, not only did he not give her any comfort, but he'd even said those horrible things.He finally knew why Evelyn broke up with him so adamantly. It turned out that he'd hurt her deeply.He thought back to the day they broke up an

Iris' heart jumped to her throat when Warren pointed at her. However, she looked surprised. She laughed mockingly and said, "Warren, that was also my grandchild, so how could I bear to harm it? If Evelyn told you that, she's blaming me because she despises me. Don't believe her."Warren glared at her frigidly. He didn't know where the mother who loved him and his sister so tenderly went. Why had she changed completely after that incident? Pursing his lips and gritting his teeth, he spat out two words, "Orkey Pharmacy."When Iris heard that name, she shuddered unconsciously. But soon, she managed to calm herself down. "That's where I usually get my medicine. What's the matter? Is something wrong with them?""Are you familiar with Mr. Philip Grant?""I am. These days, my menopausal symptoms are rather bad, so I had him concoct some medication for me. His medicinal herbs are very effective. Even my sleep quality has improved. Is something wrong with him?"Iris' expression was compl

Warren watched Bonnie call Chester. He didn't care how she would explain it, so he dragged his fatigued body out the door and left.The night sky grew darker, and silence fell over the land. Only dim street lamps lit up the sides of the roads, casting long, lonely shadows along the ground.He didn't drive. He simply walked alone in the dark night. The cool night breeze entered through his collar and tickled his chest. He felt a biting cold chill in his bones.Before he knew it, he arrived at the alley where he first met Evelyn. The alley was very run-down; even the paint on the surrounding buildings was peeling. Several stray cats saw him coming and hid in a corner in fear. Staring at him with round eyes, they meowed non-stop.It reminded him of Evelyn back then. She had been surrounded by bad people and had been trying to run for her life. However, when she reached the end, she realized that it was a dead end. Just when she had lost all hope, she had seen him.At the time, her ey

Evelyn could hear the anxiousness and worry in Charlie's voice. She was silent for a few seconds before replying, "Mr. Crawford, we have already broken up. You shouldn't be coming to me.""Ms. Jefferson, please hear me out. The Larkin Corporation's newly launched M60 phone dominated the Wasia Dominic market in less than a month. This dealt a huge blow to the Frawserian brand, Beoco."Thus, they meddled with Mr. Larkin while he was on a business trip. Now, he's being framed for assaulting a Frawserian movie star and has been arrested. The Larkin Corporation stocks have been in freefall since this morning."Ms. Jefferson, this case involves a lot of trade secrets. Mr. Larkin wants you to represent him."Evelyn knew that Charlie wasn't bluffing. Before the M60 phone was launched, Warren had already begun preparing himself to be targeted by schemes. The launch had been an announcement to the entire world that they could locally manufacture every part of the phone, and were no longer

Every word Linda spoke conveyed Warren's trust in her and disdain for Evelyn. She was suggesting that he didn't even want to come in person to visit Simon.Evelyn could tell what Linda was thinking. A faint, cold smile curved at the corner of her lips.She took out her phone from her bag, looked at Linda, and said, "Is that so? Then, I should personally call Mr. Larkin to thank him for remembering my father's kindness toward him."After she finished speaking, she started pretending to make a phone call.Linda immediately spoke up to stop her. "Mr. Larkin is very busy and currently in a meeting, so please do not disturb him.""Is it that he's busy, or is it that you don't want him to know you're visiting my father without his permission?"Linda realized that her thoughts were seen through by Evelyn, so she decided not to pretend anymore.A slight smirk appeared at the corner of her mouth. "Evelyn, back then, you took so much from Warren without regard for his well-being. Your hea

Evelyn immediately took out a piece of tissue to help Simon wipe away his tears. She said softly, "Dad, I know you have a lot you want to say to Ms. Dawson, so please wake up soon. We're all waiting for you."Simon's eyelashes fluttered slightly, as if he was agreeing to the promise.After that, Erica took out silver needles from her bag and inserted them into the acupuncture points on Simon's head.…One hour later, the first acupuncture session was complete.Evelyn asked with some concern, "Ms. Dawson, how is my dad?"Erica was tidying up while speaking, "His condition is better than I expected. At this rate, he should be showing more obvious responses in about a week."Hearing these words, Evelyn looked at her excitedly. "Really? That's great! My dad has hope now!"Ms. Dawson, you've been running around all day. Let me take you to eat first, then you can rest at the hotel."Just as she finished speaking, Simon grabbed Erica's hand.Seeing this scene, Evelyn's eyes widened

The room suddenly became so quiet that they could even hear each other's breathing.Tears welled up in Erica's eyes as she stared at Simon. She only went to his bedside, taking a few difficult steps, after several minutes.Erica gently placed her fingertips on Simon's wrist as tears fell onto his arm.Watched her unusual reaction, Evelyn finally remembered where she had seen Erica before.There was a picture of a women hidden in Simon's private photo album. If Evelyn wasn't mistaken, that woman is Erica.Simon had kept that photo all along, while Erica teared up upon seeing him. This kind of thing usually happened between couples.When Evelyn thought about it, she suddenly understood everything.Erica was someone Simon had been in love with many years ago. The unfortunate couple was separated initially because of Xena's scheme.Evelyn walked slowly to the bedside, patted Erica on the shoulder, and asked, "Do you know my dad, Dr. Dawson?"Erica wiped away her tears and sighed.

Erica was dressed very plainly, but her delicate features still stood out. The red mole near the corner of her eye felt especially familiar to Evelyn.Her first thought was that she had definitely seen Erica somewhere before.She calmly approached with a smile and said, "Dr. Dawson, we're here to fetch you to treat my father."Erica greeted them with a smile. "Come inside and have some water first. I'll go pack up, and we can leave in a short while."They followed her and entered the courtyard once more.While packing her things, Erica asked, "So, which one of you is Sophie's friend?"William, who had always been carefree and uninhibited, immediately stood up and respectfully said to Erica, "It's me. I met her in Zyldrica."Erica looked him up and down, her eyes revealing a hint of delight. "You seem very handsome and look spirited, young man."William's smile was somewhat stiff. It was the first time someone had ever complimented him, and he didn't know how to react.When fac

Evelyn stepped forward and said, "But Warren and the others have been doing everything they can to find you and get you out."Alfred shook his head. "If I leave, that bastard will know that you all have discovered his secret. All your subsequent plans will fail."I'm staying here since he won't do anything to me anyway. I still have something I haven't given him yet. How else do you think I've lived until now?"You all should leave quickly. Just pretend nothing happened. My granddaughter and I will handle that jerk ourselves.""Mr. Miller Senior—"Evelyn wanted to say something else, but Nathan, who was behind her, grabbed her abruptly.He furrowed his brow and looked at Alfred. "Evelyn, Mr. Miller Senior is right. If he leaves, Warren's plan will be ruined. Don't worry, I'll assign someone to keep an eye on this place and make sure nothing will happen to him."Evelyn was eager to save Alfred so that Warren could launch a full-scale attack on Russell. Only then could they reunit

Elma shook her head in disbelief. "That's impossible. You're talking nonsense. My dad was killed by Chester long ago. The person who killed him is not Sir."Evelyn gave a calm smile. "He says he's protecting you, but in reality, he has always treated you as a pawn to control Iris. Otherwise, your mother wouldn't risk her life so willingly for him."I could never understand why Iris would obey someone so willingly. But then I met you, and everything became clear to me."Have you never wondered why your mother looks so much like Mrs. Larkin? That person definitely won't tell you that they are twin sisters."You're also the one keeping an eye on this old man's biological daughter. That person has known about this secret for a long time but has kept it from Iris to fully control her."Whether it's your father, Ronald, or your mother, Iris, their tragic lives were all caused by that 'Sir' you mentioned. Do you want to follow in their footsteps?"Hearing these words, Elma glared at Eve

The gears lunged toward them, like a giant shark with its jaws wide open.Just then, Nathan suddenly held Evelyn in his arms. In a low and hoarse voice filled with suppressed emotion, he called out softly, "Evie."His grip around her was tight. It felt as if he wanted to fuse Evelyn into himself. At the same time, he pressed a button that was a disgusting shade of yellow with his other hand.Everyone was wide-eyed with fear, staring intently at the turning gears.If the wrong button was pressed, not only would the gears not stop, but other traps in this room might be activated. They were in double jeopardy, and there was no escape for them.At that critical moment, the rumbling sound of the gears gradually diminished until it faded away entirely. The gears stopped just short of three feet away from them.Evelyn looked up at Nathan, her eyes wide with shock, and her voice trembling. "Nathan, we're saved."Nathan smiled and gently brushed her hair. "I told you, I won't let anythin

The elderly man was none other than Warren's grandfather, Alfred. But wasn't Alfred being held in Milania by Russell? Moreover, he had been poisoned and was supposed to be unconscious.Yet, the elderly man before them was sitting at a table, leisurely playing a game of chess.Evelyn didn't have time to think much. She pressed the switch next to her, opened the door, and rushed in.Just as they went in, the glass door automatically closed behind them, and the entire room started to slowly descend—right into where the gears were turning.Evelyn looked at Nathan with some panic. "I think we've been tricked."Nathan looked at a control panel in the room and said, "Don't worry. This is the control console. As long as we find the button to stop the gears from turning, we'll be fine."After speaking, he carefully examined the central control panel.At that moment, Elma's laughter echoed again in the room. "Evelyn, this control panel has 81 buttons, and each one will trigger a different

Elma's eyes seemed so familiar to Evelyn that they left a deep impression in her mind.When Evelyn was deep in thought, she suddenly opened her eyes wide as a name popped into her mind—Iris Lindt.Elma's eyes and nose looked a lot like Iris'. Could it be that they were related?Evelyn tried to stand up and look for William and Nathan, but her hands and feet were tied, making moving impossible.She softly called out, "William? Mr. Holland?"There was no response, so she tried calling out again. This time, a deep, hoarse voice rang out close by. "Evelyn, I'm over here."Nathan's voice was urgent and full of concern. In the darkness, Evelyn almost mistook it again for Warren's voice.She responded, "Mr. Holland, where is William?"Nathan kicked William beside him and said, "He's next to me. The drug seems to be affecting him more. Don't be afraid, I'll be over there right away."After speaking, Nathan crawled toward Evelyn. Seeing her pale face, he felt a bit concerned and asked,
