Evelyn immediately flipped the calendar to the previous month.

There, on November 13th, was a circle she had drawn with a red pen.

Evelyn's period had never been on time, so she often forgot about it.

That was why she later developed a habit of marking her calendar every month. That habit remained throughout all those years.

Suddenly, a thought flooded her mind like a tsunami.

Her period was 20 days late.

That had never happened before.

She had always had her period early—not the other way around.

Evelyn recalled how she had retched earlier. Revisiting the memory weakened her legs, and she fell onto the couch.

Just then, Jazzie's call came in.

Evelyn panicked but still picked up the call.

Her voice trembled with disbelief when she said, "Jazzie."

Hearing her tone and knowing that something was off, Jazzie immediately comforted, "Don't be sad, Evie. If you're too sad, your great-grandpa will worry and won't be able to rest in heaven."

Silence lingered for a few seconds befo

    That question made Jazzie so angry that she wanted to kick him.She thought about her virginity, and how Ethan was essentially insulting her.Jazzie wanted to shout at the guy right then and there, but she later recalled what Evelyn requested.The latter didn't want anyone to know about it.Jazzie suppressed her emotions and glared at Ethan before she said, "Is that any of your concerns? What are you? God's supervisor? Is it your job to record who the father of my unborn child is?"Hearing that response caused Ethan's anger to rise.He pinched Jazzie's chin as his gaze glowed with immense fury."Jazzie Hoffman, you can't learn anything good but are so quick to pick up that slutty shit. You've already mastered sleeping around. Are you going to have an illegitimate child as well?"Jazzie was furious upon hearing his words.She lifted her leg and landed a kick on Ethan's sensitive parts. Through gritted teeth, she replied, "Who I sleep with and who I have a child with is none of

    "Iris doesn't want me to be with Warren. She won't come after me again if I stay away from him," said Evelyn.Hearing that made Jazzie so angry that she cussed aloud."Why didn't that car accident kill that bitch? I've seen lots of TV shows, and none of the evil mother-in-laws on-screen are as vicious as that woman."Evie, breaking up is nothing. You still have me. I will help you raise the kid. Men nowadays are utterly unreliable, so we'll rely on ourselves."Evelyn couldn't describe what she was feeling at that moment.If Warren were to know that she was pregnant with their child, he would likely be over the moon.However, Evelyn knew things well in her heart. If Iris were to find out about the pregnancy, neither Evelyn nor the baby would be safe.Evelyn calmed herself down and instructed, "Jazzie, you are not allowed to tell anyone about this, okay?"Jazzie immediately understood what Evelyn was saying. The former pointed out, "Even if I keep this a secret, you still won't b

    Evelyn turned around and saw Clara staring at her stomach.The latter's gaze was filled with obvious evil intent.Evelyn remained calm. She didn't even show a hint of panic.She arched her brows and put a smile on her lips. After that, she said, "Don't worry. If I really am pregnant, you will be the first to know. That will kill all your hopes. After all, that is the best way to hurt you."Clara gritted her teeth angrily and replied, "What are you so happy about, Evelyn? Don't forget that you and Warren are broken up. I just hope you actually keep your word instead of shamelessly crawling back to him."You are the reason Mrs. Larkin was whipped 100 times. She will not let you off the hook if you dare return."Evelyn scoffed and replied, "Even if I never go back to him, what are the chances that Warren would want you? He won't even wear clothes that others have touched. Do you think he'd be with someone that others have slept with?"Those words were like daggers. Each stabbed Cla

    The subject prompted Tammy to shift her gaze to Evelyn's belly. She lowered her voice and asked, "You're wearing a really loose outfit. Is there any news on that front?"Evelyn's eyes became watery. Her lips curved into a small grin before she nodded slightly.Tammy was so excited that her jaw dropped. She asked, "Really? Does Mr. Larkin know?""I haven't told him yet.""Are you going to tell him or not? Are you really going to leave him? You don't know this, but Ezra didn't come home the night you broke up with Warren."He told me that he had never seen Warren that sad or drink that much before."Hearing those words made Evelyn's eyes watery. She felt as though something had stabbed her heart.There was no way she didn't know how sad Warren was.He would go to her place and wait outside her house every night after he clocked off.Sometimes, he would go into the house and chat with Simon, then check up on her. If he ended up being there until late at night, he'd just stand out

    "Why are you getting books about pregnancy?"Warren felt his heart skip a beat for a moment.His arms tightened around Remy as he spoke. An intrusive thought barged into his mind.He grabbed Evelyn, and his gaze burned with love when he looked at her. He demanded, "Evie, are you hiding something from me? Why are you getting those books? Are you pregnant?"His questions were like bullets from a machine gun. They fired rapidly at Evelyn.It made her feel a little nervous.She took a step back and said a little angrily, "Warren, what are you doing? How could I possibly be pregnant?""Then why are you getting these books?"Warren kept his gaze fixed on Evelyn's face. He was examining the tiniest shift in her expression and was terrified that he would miss something important.Just then, Evelyn's phone suddenly rang.She immediately picked it up.Ethan's deep voice came from the other end of the line."Evelyn, who's the father of Jazzie's baby?"Evelyn frowned a little before s

    "You wouldn't die," agreed Ethan. "But what about the little one?"He was reluctant to accept that reality, but if things were true, then he didn't want Jazzie to hurt herself even more.It was only at that moment that Jazzie figured out what was going on.She thought about how Ethan believed that she was pregnant and was worried that she'd have a miscarriage if she fell.Those thoughts made Jazzie so angry that she wanted to beat him up.She assumed he had always seen her as a loose woman.That prompted her to grit her teeth and reply, "The kid's not yours, so what are you so worried about, anyway?"After saying that, she pushed Ethan aside and made her way back to the production set. She prepared to shoot the scene again.Ethan was so angry that he clenched his fists.He thought Jazzie was a heartless idiot who took his kindness and treated it like trash.Despite cursing internally, he handed the dinner he brought with him to Jazzie's assistant and left.…Soon, Christmas

    When Evelyn opened her eyes again, the sky had already turned dark.She recalled smelling Warren's scent while being in a daze, and she thought she heard his voice.She even dreamed about kissing him.Evelyn wondered just how much she missed the guy to have a dream like that.The sound of fireworks going off came from outside the window. Up in the sky, the night was painted with colorful sparks.It was looking more and more festive.As such, her longing for Warren had deepened as well. It was so bad that she felt her heart sting.She couldn't help putting both hands on her womb and talking to the baby in her mind."Baby, let's celebrate Christmas with your dad after you are safely born, okay?"When Warren made his way over, he saw Evelyn's groggy eyes wet with tears.More and more tears gathered until they became droplets that rolled down her cheeks.Warren slowly crouched down. His icy finger gently wiped those tears away.His voice brimmed with heartache as he spoke."Wh

    "So what if you assigned a bodyguard to me? I was still drugged. Warren, I'm not an unreasonable person, but all these dangerous incidents have really gotten to me."The danger will still be there so long as I am with you. The only thing I can do to protect my family and myself is to break up with you."So please, leave me alone, okay?"Evelyn's eyes were red with tears toward the end, and her voice had become thick.She had made the tough call to break up with him. She didn't even tell him that she was pregnant, and there was no way she could let all her previous efforts be for naught.Evelyn was fine with getting hurt, but she couldn't help worrying about the baby.She thought about how tiny the baby was and how there was no way it could endure any harm.Even the slightest harm could cause the baby its life.Hence, Evelyn didn't have the guts to roll the dice.Seeing how terrified she was got Warren so heartbroken that he caressed her head.His voice became slightly deeper

    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,
