Evelyn gently rubbed Warren's back, puzzled. "Warren, did Dad say something to you?"

Warren quickly denied it. "No, it's just... I suddenly had this fear that you might leave me."

"How could I? Our baby is about to be born, and I need you to earn money to raise our child. Don't overthink.

"You've been under too much pressure lately. Go and have a drink with your friends today," Evelyn said.

She gently caressed Warren's face and stood on her tiptoes to plant a kiss on his cheek. "Feel better now?" she asked, smiling.

Warren wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her close. His dark eyes were filled with unspoken emotions.

His warm lips brushed lightly against Evelyn's cheek as he whispered hoarsely, "As long as you're here, I fear nothing."

With that, he lowered his head and kissed her soft lips. They stood on the lawn, sharing a passionate kiss in the midday sun.

Warren let go of all his worries, immersing himself in the joy of having Evelyn in his arms. His kisses g

    Chester extended his arm and pulled Skyler into his embrace. Ever since reconnecting with her, he felt rejuvenated, as if he had a second lease on life. He felt as if he were young again, his heart beating with an unfamiliar excitement. Just then, Skyler's phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, she quickly answered, "Hello, Russell. What's up?" A deep voice came from the other end. "Skyler, I'm in Bramston City. Let's meet tonight. "It's been too long since I last saw you and Dennis. Dad had me send some supplements for both of you." "Sounds great. Let's meet at my place this evening. I'm at a friend's house right now, but I'll head back this afternoon," Skyler replied. "Alright, see you tonight." Hanging up the call, Skyler's excitement was palpable. "My brother is in town. He'll be coming over tonight. I'll head home after lunch." It was the first time Chester had heard her mention about her family. Cautiously, he asked, "You have a brother? Why didn't Dennis mention him

    Russell was taken aback. "Why? You two were so in love. How did it end in divorce?" Chester shook his head with a rueful smile. "It's a long story. I'll explain another time. You two go ahead. I have some things to take care of." With that, he got back in his car and drove away. As Chester's car disappeared from sight, Russell suddenly asked, "Do you like him?" Skyler didn't hesitate to share her feelings. "He's Dennis' father, but I can't remember ever being with him. The injuries I sustained were from his ex-wife, Iris. "She's the one who's been hunting me, but I can't recall my past well enough to testify against her. That's why I want to try desensitization therapy." Russell's previously gentle expression turned icy. "I won't let you do that. Dad went through so much to find you, and I won't allow anything to happen to you. "He must have wronged you back then. After all, there were always girls lining up to be with him." Curious, Skyler gazed at him and queried, "Ar

    With this in mind, Warren turned to Seth empathically. "You should spend more time with Jennifer. As an expectant mother, she must be feeling vulnerable right now. "I haven't told Evie about this. I fear it might unsettle her," Warren confessed. "Don't tell her. Her due date is in three months. Safety first," Seth replied. They then delved into the issue surrounding Iris. By the time Warren left the office, the clock had ticked past 7:00 pm. Passing a flower shop, he picked up a bouquet and then swung by a dessert shop for a cake. As soon as he arrived home, Warren spotted Evelyn and Bailey on the swing. Upon his return, Bailey bounded toward him, wagging his tail around Warren's feet and letting out playful whines. Bending down, Warren gently scolded Bailey with a few pinches on the neck. "How many times must I tell you to stay away from Mom? Why don't you listen?" Bailey huffed in response before trotting off. Carrying the cake and bouquet, Warren approached Evelyn

    When Evelyn felt its warmth against her icy fingertips, she recoiled in surprise. "What are you doing? Dad is outside," she grumbled. Warren pulled her into a gentle embrace, kissing her forehead. "Did I scare you? It's not like you haven't felt this before. He's been unusually excited these days; he must miss you. "Darling, tonight, can we..." Before he could finish, Evelyn silenced him with her palm. "No way, the doctor said the last three months are risky. No intimacy allowed." Playfully kissing her palm, Warren chuckled, "I'm joking. I have good self-control. Once our son is born and you've recovered, we'll leave him with his grandparents, and I'll take you on our honeymoon. "You've always wanted to see the Northern Lights and the Grand Ravine, haven't you? We'll go together." Listening to him, Evelyn already envisioned scenes of happiness in her mind. She imagined herself nestled close to Warren, experiencing the awe-inspiring Northern Lights and gazing at the majest

    Only when Warren saw that Evelyn had gone to sleep did he walk into the study.At that moment, he received an email from Charlie."Mr. Larkin, this is the portrait that was drawn based on that photo of Zayn. The police are already looking for him based on the portrait."Staring at the photo on the screen, Warren frowned.Zayn had refined facial features. The computer-generated portrait of him as an adult made him look so gentle.Someone who looked so elegant could actually be so vicious.Warren immediately typed a reply. "Look into the backgrounds of every faction leader in the Dark Gust Society. Perhaps he is hiding amongst them."…A month later, it was time for the first trial of the murder of Sonya.The evidence for the case was solid, so the trial progressed smoothly. Iris pleaded guilty the entire way.However, when the judge asked about Skyler, Iris refused to admit her guilt.Seeing her lack of remorse in court, Warren's heart seized with pain.How he wished that th

    Why was it Iris?She used to be Sonya's best friend.Before she died, Sonya had trusted Iris so much that she had betrothed her unborn daughter to Iris' son.Why did Iris have to do this to Sonya?Not only did she have an affair with Sonya's husband, but she even gave birth to a daughter.In order to give her daughter a better life, she went so far as to betray their years-long friendship and kill Sonya.Because of that, Evelyn had ended up living a life of poverty.While these thoughts ran through her mind, she bawled.She had thought about it before—no matter who the murderer was, she would find them and avenge her mother.However, she never imagined that that person would be Iris.Iris, the mother of the man she loved the most.What would happen to her and Warren?His mother had killed her mother. Their relationship was stained by her mother's blood now.Evelyn couldn't stop herself from trembling. Her body slowly slid from the bed to the floor. "Why did it turn out t

    Warren tightly clenched his fist, slamming it against the wall.All of a sudden, there was blood dripping down the white walls.All he could think about was Evelyn locking herself up in the room and sobbing.Ever since she got pregnant, she had been through so much. It hadn't been easy for her to get to this point, but fate dealt her another blow.Warren felt like knives were stabbing into his heart, causing it to gush with blood. His voice was raw as he said, "Evie, I'm right outside. If there's anything, you have to tell me, okay?"Hearing that he was nearly begging, Evelyn began to cry even harder. She stared at the door with tears streaming down her face. "Warren, you should go. I just want to be alone. I won't hurt the baby," she said, getting choked up.Those words were a stab to the depths of his heart.The person that she didn't want to see the most was him. His name was now on her blacklist.Thinking about this, Warren's eyes flashed with pain. He clenched his fist t

    When Skyler heard this, she immediately took the hair clip off her head. Staring at the camera hidden under the pearl, she said incredulously, "How is this possible? I bought this at the mall yesterday. How could someone have tampered with it?"Realizing what had happened because Evelyn had found out about the truth, she began to tear up, blaming herself.Seeing her in this state, Chester tried to comfort her. "I wasn't blaming you, Skyler. Try and think carefully. Besides you, did anyone else touch this hair clip?"Skyler shook her head. "No. After I bought it yesterday, I kept it in my bag. Last night, I was alone at home. Even Dennis didn't come over. I don't know when this camera was installed."The more she spoke, the more upset she felt. If she hadn't worn this hair clip to the trial, Evelyn wouldn't have found out about this. She shook her head self-reproachfully and said, "Chester, you have to believe me. I didn't put the camera there. I really don't know what happened."S

    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,
