Inside the envelope, there was a paternity test report attached with a note. It read, "Seth, Albert is your son. He'll be staying with you for some time. Once I'm less busy, I'll come pick him up. Signed, Jennifer."

When Seth saw the handwriting on the note as well as the signature, he was shocked.

Jennifer was his girlfriend while he was abroad. They had dated for half a year and had been living together during that time.

After that, he had come to a realization that he couldn't forget about Evelyn and was constantly calling Evelyn's name in his dreams. Thinking that it wasn't fair to Jennifer, he broke up with her.

At the time, Jennifer had left him rather decisively.

However, he hadn't known that she had already been pregnant then.

Seth didn't know how to face Evelyn. He looked at her with reddened eyes and said, "Evelyn, I don't know what's going on. Listen to me, you're the one I've always been in love with. This child was an accident."

At this point, Evelyn had understood

    Jazzie wiped away her tears and glared at Warren. "Do you know why Evelyn wanted to break up with you? Do you think it was really over something as simple as jealousy?"On her birthday, she had planned to propose to you. While decorating the venue, she had suffered cuts all over her hands. However, after Clara called you, you immediately left and abandoned her at home."When she was hemorrhaging from her miscarriage, she tried to call you, but you called her unreasonable. If Chet hadn't saved her, she would have died from blood loss."When she needed your signature for surgery, she called you over and over. If you had any feelings for her, you wouldn't have chosen to ignore those calls or turn off your phone."If you had had even the slightest bit of care for her, you wouldn't have asked her to give Clara a blood transfusion after she had already lost so much blood."Don't you know that she has Rhesus negative blood? At the time, the blood bank had run out of that kind of blood. T

    Knowing all of this now, Warren's heart ached more than he had ever experienced before. He immediately got up and grabbed his keys before running out of the room.After Evelyn left the hotel, she drove off alone without a destination in mind. All she wanted was to go somewhere where she could be alone. She wanted to calm herself down and spend the night on her own.Her phone was ringing off the hook. Seth, Jazzie, and even her father were blowing up her phone. However, she didn't want to answer either of their calls. She didn't want them to know what she was feeling right now.She felt like God had abandoned her.She was kind, obedient, and clever. Why was it so difficult to find happiness?She didn't desire riches and wealth. She just wanted to spend her life with a man who loved her wholeheartedly.Three years ago, she had thought that Warren could make her happy. Thus, she had run toward him at full speed.She never thought that things would end so miserably.After three yea

    Warren's eyes hid an indescribable pain. He carefully enveloped Evelyn in his arms and rubbed her back lightly. He murmured in a hoarse, trembling voice, "Evie, you can scold me. If that doesn't vent your anger, you can beat me up too. I'm begging you to not bottle everything up, okay?"Evelyn didn't struggle and simply let Warren hold her. She didn't have the strength in her to fight with him, and she didn't want to let herself get upset over him again.She laughed softly. "Warren, I should thank you. If I only found out about the kid after I became irrevocably in love with Seth, it would hurt even more."What happened tonight wasn't a huge loss for me. People will just gossip about me and give me pitying looks for a few days. But after that, everyone will forget."Just like how everyone had forgotten that she was just Warren's pet canary.She had already gotten used to the gossip about her. Maybe this was her destiny after all.When she was younger, people used to criticize her

    Evelyn wormed her way out of Warren's embrace and stepped back. She said indifferently, "Then stay away from me. What we had was in the past. I won't get hung up on who is right and who is wrong anymore. You don't have anything to make up for either. A relationship should be born from a willing heart anyway."I just hope that the next time we meet, we can go back to a normal relationship as old colleagues. I don't want anything else."With that, she removed the jacket from her shoulders and shoved it in Warren's hands. Then, she turned around and got into her car.No matter how much Warren called out to her, she didn't look back.She simply walked away beneath the cold moonlight and disappeared from Warren's sight.…A week passed, and Seth still didn't come to work. Apparently, he had gone to find Jennifer, Albert's mother.Evelyn didn't pay it much mind. Instead, she threw herself into her gradually piling work.When she got off work on Friday, she found Diana and Albert in f

    The next time Evelyn saw Seth was the night Diana became a godmother.He had lost a lot of weight, while his eyes were swollen, and his face was pale.He stood by the stairs and was smoking all by his lonesome.Evelyn made her way to him and handed him a bottle of water. In a soft voice, she asked, "Seth, have you found Jennifer?"Seth's eyes were bloodshot when he turned to her."I'm sorry, Evie. I've disappointed you."Evelyn smiled and shook her head. "Don't put the blame on yourself. After all, we never started dating. Ending this before it is too late is the best option for us. I don't want you to become an irresponsible jerk who I hate."With a broken heart, Seth closed his eyes. His voice was deep with helplessness."Albert was born with leukemia. All of our relatives got their blood tested, but none of their bone marrow is suitable. The doctor recommended that we try having another kid."Seth's eyes became wet with tears after he said those words.His eyes remained wa

    William had never been that serious before.He had always hated restrictions and never considered taking over the family's estate.However, if Evelyn were to ask, he would go through hell for her.He had just finished talking when a deep voice in an icy tone rang out."If you want to compete against me, then you better have the resources to win."Warren was standing behind them, dressed neatly in a black suit. A lit cigarette rested in between his fingers.His handsome face carried a hint of unending sorrow.His eyes, which were already sunken, looked even worse. The wrinkles around them had become more prominent as well.Warren's yearning for Evelyn was evident in those eyes.He slowly walked toward Evelyn. His dark brown eyes stared into her soul. In a deep voice, he asked, "How have you been, Evie?"Before Evelyn could reply, William barged in and stood between them. An unrestrained smile lit up on his face."She's fine and doesn't need you to worry about her. Go fuck off

    Two brand-new racecars zipped out of Evelyn's view as though they were lightning.Just as she was watching the two of them race from the visitor's booth, she received a call from Jazzie.Evelyn had just tapped on her phone when Jazzie's scream came from the other end."Evie, you are assigned to walk with a ridiculously handsome groomsman tomorrow at Salma's wedding. His style suggests he's the kind of guy who is graceful and restrained in public but goes insanely wild in private. That's what I think, anyway. "Gosh, he's so hot. Cupid has blessed you again, girl."Evelyn couldn't help chuckling at that. She replied, "We'll just be walking side by side. Do you really have to get so excited?""Of course I do! I have been working my butt off trying to find a guy for you."Hang on, let me send his photo and resume to you. I guarantee you can't help screeching when you see them."I'll pick you up tomorrow morning, and we'll go to the wedding together."Evelyn's phone beeped endless

    It was no wonder that Warren was regarded as a gifted businessman. He could always identify someone's weakness and attack it.When William heard those words, his indecision instantly turned into determination."Let's sign that contract. Someday, I will surpass you."Hearing those words caused the glee in Warren's eyes to slowly reveal itself. It had been hidden until that moment.He had his men bring the contract over to William.When everything was done, the person in charge smiled at William and said, "Mr. Bennett, an important race will take place here tomorrow. There are still a few issues to work out. I'm afraid you'll have to work overtime tonight."William instantly sensed something off. His gaze was sharp when he glared at Warren. "You did this on purpose," said William. "This is your excuse to get close to Ms. Evie."Warren kept his head high and smiled. "Tomorrow's race is a national event," informed Warren. "If you don't want to lose against me, then you should prepar

    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,
