Dexter, Miss Edwards probably only said that because she was in a bad mood. Please don't take her too seriously. Even though she's a vicious woman who killed our baby, so many years have passed and I have moved on. Let's forgive her!"

Jeremy proudly waved the phone in his hand. "Steven is the future father-in-law of Dexter. I had been worrying that I don't have leverage against Steven. Who would know that he would deliver himself to me? I recorded everything he said to you before. Now I'm waiting to see him yielding to me" "Jeremy, how can you be so despicable?" Barbara was so angry that she wanted to slap him in the face. Anyone who thought Jeremy was just a playboy certainly underestimated his ability to take advantage of people. "You're protecting him?"

"We're not the kind of relationship you've imagined us to have" "It's not that kind of relationship? Then what is it?" Jeremy asked. "It's a long story.

Steven sneered and said, "Why did Raina ask you for an explanation? The decision was made by the municipal party committee. What would you know the reason?"

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."

"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.

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?"

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.
