She was startled to see Barbara at the city hall and didn't think through it. Now she had offended her "Let me tell you, Emily. I'm not a pushover. I don't care about the wealth and status that you and your mistress mom are obsessed about. I am still Barbara even without Steven. You're different.

He raised his wrist and looked at his watch. "The meeting is over. Go and see Mr Cook, I have something to do!" Emily's heart sank. She squeezed out a smile. "Dexter i

    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.

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."

    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.

    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!
