Didn't Want Me Before, Can't Have Me Now Chapter 518
Warren acted swiftly, pulling Evelyn behind him and delivering a forceful kick to Clara's wheelchair, overturning it. Clara tumbled to the ground and rolled over, groaning in pain. Warren turned to Evelyn quickly, his concern palpable. "Evie, are you hurt?" Evelyn shook her head. "I'm fine, just a bit shaken. The baby seems startled." "We should get you checked by the doctor again." "No, the baby will be fine. You should check on Clara." Clara had been restrained by the guards behind. She appeared trapped in her wheelchair as if she were a caged animal. Approaching her, Warren bent down, his gaze icy and his voice lacking any sympathy. "Clara, do you know why I funded your treatment? It's because you haven't owned up to your mistakes. Now that you've recovered, it's time to visit your birth mother in prison." Upon hearing Warren's words, Clara's reaction was immediate panic. She shook her head vigorously, her voice pleading desperately, "No, Warren, I can't take care

Right after finishing her words, Iris cradled Clara in her arms with tears streaming down her cheeks. With a choked voice, she sobbed, "Clara, how did you end up like this? It's all my fault. I've dragged you into this." Clara refused to acknowledge Iris as her mother. She pushed her away forcefully. "Get lost! You're not my mother!" "Clara, whether you admit it or not, I am your mother. "Don't worry, I'll take care of you from now on. I won't let you suffer anymore," Iris promised. A few days later, Warren received a call from the prison, informing him that Iris needed to speak with him. His gaze darkened at the call. It appeared his strategy had paid off. Clara was indeed Iris' vulnerability. Moved by concern for Clara, Iris, who had previously been reluctant to disclose anything, was now willing to open up. Warren and Seth drove to the prison together. The moment Iris laid eyes on Warren, tears streamed down her face. "Warren, I'll tell you everything you need

Iris didn't intend to confess; her true aim was to discredit Warren as an illegitimate heir. In the Larkin family, only children born to the legitimate wife could inherit the family's leadership. If Iris' accusation were substantiated, Warren would undoubtedly lose his CEO position at Larkin Corporation. Adding to recent issues with the faulty phone model, the shareholders were already dissatisfied with Warren's leadership. They seized the moment to push for his removal from power. As Warren observed the mounting popularity of damning posts on his phone, his gaze hardened with unwavering resolve. Iris had almost cost him Evelyn, and now she jeopardized his entire family legacy. The impact of Iris on his life was immeasurable. Warren clenched his teeth in frustration. Just then, Chester's call came through. "Warren, you've got to get here fast. The board's in chaos. They're threatening to sell their shares if you don't step down. "If it happens, Larkin Corporation could sl

Half an hour later, Ethan hurried into the study. He placed the small black device on an electronic gadget, and immediately, a youthful voice filled the room. "Evie, I'm Warren. You have to grow up quickly so that I can marry you. This necklace is my token of love to you. Please wear it always." A woman's voice followed. "Evie, it's Mom here. This necklace was personally designed by Aunt Iris. She secretly added Warren's voice to it. You can listen to it when you grow up. It's like you're talking to Warren from the past. Isn't that amazing? "I hope you both grow up together, get married, and live a happy life. Warren, you must keep your childhood promise. Take good care of my precious girl and never let her suffer. Blessings to you both." Hearing the recording brought Evelyn to tears. She had only seen photos and watched videos of Sonya's performance, but not videos of her speaking. Hearing her gentle and kind voice for the first time filled Evelyn with happiness. With te

Meanwhile, Warren was sitting in the conference room, absorbing the accusations hurled by the shareholders in silence. His idea to shift the company's focus from traditional industries to technology was a move that had reaped substantial dividends for the shareholders in recent years. Yet, amidst the current crisis, they pinned all the blame on Warren. These shareholders, opportunistic and fickle, seemed to shift allegiance with the wind. An elder from the Larkin family rose to his feet, proclaiming, "Putting aside Warren's contributions and alleged damages to the company, the fact that he is not born of the Larkin blood goes against our family's traditions. Hence, he cannot assume the role of CEO. Chester, don't blame me for taking this firm stance." Chester scoffed, "Can't you all recognize the wealth Warren has brought to Larkin Corporation throughout these years? Without his efforts, would any of you be enjoying the comforts you have today? "As for Iris' involvement, it's

Whatever choice Chester made would be the wrong one. His pallid face turned to Warren. "Warren, the decision is yours." Warren sat silently in the host's seat, taking in the reactions of everyone present. He had already discerned the situation. Their goal in getting Iris to confess was to remove him as CEO of Larkin Corporation and replace him with Dennis. This was their ultimate aim. Raising his eyes, Warren fixed his gaze on Dennis, his voice low as he questioned, "Is this the outcome you aimed for?" Dennis stared back with an unwavering gaze, his expression remained calm. "Do you think I'm behind all this?" "Isn't it? To avenge Skyler, you got close to us and accepted the roles I assigned you, all while secretly coveting the CEO position," Warren scoffed. He continued, "Dennis, I've told you before that if you wanted the role, I could give it to you. But resorting to such deceitful means is despicable. I won't let you succeed." For once, Dennis's usually gentle count

Hearing Evelyn's words, Warren and Dennis finally ceased their fight. Glancing at the wounds on his face, Evelyn frowned. "You already know who's behind all of this, don't you?"She hit the nail on the head. Evelyn knew Warren wouldn't fight with Dennis, even for the CEO position. Therefore, the only possibility was that they were both aware of the true culprit behind the scenes. This confrontation had been staged for that individual. Warren grinned at her words. "Darling, you're such a brilliant lawyer. They say pregnancy dulls the mind, but you're still as sharp as ever," he praised while gently patting Evelyn's head. Dennis, standing nearby, wiped the blood from the corners of his lips and interjected, "Alright, let's see what Evie has uncovered. Otherwise, enduring this beating would be pointless." Evelyn signaled for Ethan to bring the object over and presented it to the group, while she recounted her findings to them. With determination, she concluded, "The imposter

Chester couldn't imagine what Skyler had endured all these years. After a moment of deep thought, Warren spoke in a hushed tone, "This must remain confidential. If our suspicions are correct, Russell might be Zayn. "His move today to push me out aims to make Dennis the CEO, gaining control over the Larkin family. Our confrontation earlier was staged to deceive him into thinking we're adversaries, to lower his guard." Beside him, Ethan chuckled wryly and said, "You two brothers are quite something, always one step ahead. Willing to fight and take blows, thinking alike without even planning it out. It's almost unbelievable if you weren't blood-related." Dennis raised an eyebrow at Warren, revealing, "It's possible. I recall Grandpa mentioning having twin daughters when he brought me back. One passed away shortly after birth, and the other disappeared at the age of three. If Mom and Iris are indeed twins, the presumed deceased child might have survived." Warren's gaze narrowed 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,
