David didn't give Barbara the money in the end. Instead, he left the hospital with it. In the hospitals parking lot, Jeremy sat in the car with an anxious look on his face. When he saw David, he opened the door and asked,

"How did it go?"

"Since you're worried, why don't you go and have a look?" David was straightforward.

"Then what did I hire you for?" Jeremy glared at him. He was a prideful person; he wouldn't visit a person who despised him.

David answered, "Barbara is fine. She will be discharged from the hospital in a few days. She said she would come to work after she leaves the hospital"

Jeremy replied with a smile on his face, "That's good"

"This is the money you gave her. She won't accept it" David handed the money to Jeremy. Jeremy's face darkened at once, "Why doesn't she want it?"

"I don't know. She just doesn't want to. She said that if i insists, she won't go to work."

    "What do you even know?" Jeremy glared at him. To win a woman required strategies. Of Barbara could be bought over with money, Jeremy wouldn't have to worry to begin with. Thinking of those cruel words Barbara had said to him, Hus heart ached. "I'm so pathetic! She humiliated me, but I'm still concerned about her. How pathetic!" The room was silent after David left. Barbara lay on the bed alone, her heart racing inside her chest. She had never dreamed that Jeremy would come to help her. She had degraded him so manly. How could he have thought of helping me? I'd he not angry at all?" "Or did he move on?" She pondered. The more she thought about it, the more confused she felt. After a long time, the door was pushed open. This time, it was Dexter who came in with Eden in his arms. "Mom, I went to have dinner with Mr Dexter just now. The good is yummy and I have eaten a lot. Mr Dexter even bought meals for you and uncle Thomas" Eden's face was flushed with glee; he was notably happy. D

    In the evening, Barbara told Kinsey, who came over for a visit everything thar Raina had said. Kinsey was equally exasperated. Why was that old witch insistent? "Barbara, I think you should accept her offer. Take the money she gives. You're not holding onto Dexter anyways. This money is what his family owes you, don't turn it down for nothing " Kinsey said. "I know but I didn't want to have anything to do with them. Not even a bit" Barbara replied. "You're just too stubborn!" Kinsey sighed.

"I didn't kidnap her son. Dexter, believe me, I really didn't kidnap her son!" Raina pleaded. "Stop acting. Last time, you had hired a hit man to take him away. You must have don't it again today. If anything happens to him, I will make sure you pay it with your life!" While they were fighting, Kinsey's phone rang. "You've found Eden? Okay. We will be back soon." Her face was written with surprise. Everyone heard Kinsey. Barbara's face was dumbfounded with joy. "Eden is really been found ?" "Yes, they found him.

If Emily had even the tiniest consideration foe Barbara, she wouldn't have cooperated with Raina to begin with. "Mr Cook, are you blind? Deaf? Or is your brain dead?"

After you divorced Dexter, Raina came to propose marriage but I refused firmly at that time. After that, Raina also gave up the idea and began to look for other women for Dexter. Later..

    Jeremy was smoking at the end of the corridor. The cigarette tip glowed brightly, illuminating his gloomy face. Suddenly, he heard footsteps coming from behind him. Jeremy felt a hand on his shoulder. "Jeremy, I have something to tell you" said Pedro. Jeremy modded and went to the study with him, "I know what happened yesterday. In fact, if you want to know about what happened back then, you don't have to question Lydia. you have to come to me." Jeremy didn't say anything. He just looked at Pedro quietly. "The emotional dispute between your parents and Myra was actually a tragedy caused by two rich and powerful families. Both your grandmother's were friends and they had agreed very early on that day that they wanted their children to marry each other. Later on, your grandmother was even more determined when she saw how kind and gentle your mother was. Unfortunately, she hadn't expected Malcom to fall in love with Myra in high school." Pedro paused for a while and added, "what happe

    "How... How is he?" Lydia's eyes lit up."He's fine" Jeremy hesitated for a moment and asked, "Mom, do you know Myra?"Lydia's face suddenly changed. After a while, she mumbled, "Yes""How did she die?""What did Malcom say to you?" Lydia retorted with another question."He told me a bit about what happened between the two of you. He said that Myra was killed by you!""Did he say that?" Lydia's face suddenly turned ashen, her body shaking like a leaf."Mom, is what Malcom said true?" Jeremy insisted on an answer."Since he had said so, it must be true!" Lydia's face was as white as a ghost; there was a bitterness brewing in her heart.Jeremy did not expect Lydia would admit to it.

    Malcom pushed Jeremy's hand away from his collar and roared, "Just like how you have no feelings for Joanne, I never intended to marry Lady Klein. I told her very clearly that I wouldn't marry her. I loved Myra but what did she do to me? She promised me she would let go of Mr. But behind my back, she plotted against me and set me up so that Myra would see her in my bed. Because of that, Myra broke up with me. Your mother has never been blameless in this tragedy! I became like this because of her! Do you understand?" "Bullshit!" Jeremy did not believe that his gentle mother would pull such a plot. "You can go ask Lydia whether this is all bullshit or not. After that night, she got pregnant with you, and her mother forced me to marry her. I was in so much pain after losing Myra, so I lost all rationality. I agreed to marry Lydia, but we were never in a real relationship." Malcom smiled bitterly and added, "we could have just lived peacefully like this, but she just had to push Myra ev

    Dexter did not reply to John. His engagement with Emily was unrelated to the quarrel between Barbara and Raina but was because Barbara had said that she would never go back to him again. She said she despised him. Besides, Emily could not conceive and with that in mind, he found her together with Barbara, he ended up making this decision. Dexter's eyes darkened. "Have you found out the identity of the person who abducted the child?" "No, the hospital's surveillance video was blurry and the man wore a mask, therefore his face was not apparent at all," John replied. That was a premeditated act! Except for Raina who wanted Barbara to disappear, who else would want her gone? "It's definitely not madam Raina's order. I checked her call records and could not find any clues that she was linked to the incident." Added John. Dexter believed that it was not Raina who took Eden away from the hospital. Although Raina could be quiet unreasonable and snobbish she would not do such a vicious thi
