    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.

"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.

Do you remember anything I taught you?" "I just feel sad. How can dad do this?" "Emily, those who achieve great things don't care about trifles. If you can't even put up with such a little grievance, I don't think you should marry into the Lorenzo family at all" Deborah used even stringer language. "Mom, even you are saying this to me now?" "Is the Lorenzo family an ordinary family to me now? Us Aunt Raina an ordinary woman? Did you see how she tortured Barbara back in the days? Who is harsher? Raina or your Dad?" "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. 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."

    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.

"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!
