Chapter 569

Author: Lean
Seeing Ben's glum expression, Simone knew that the fool hadn't fared well. She was aware of Frank's temperament, and with Bethany in his hands, he was unlikely to be lenient.

She was anxious and desperate, yet had to force herself to remain calm and speak gently to Ben. "Did Mom upset you again?"

She handed him a glass of water. "She's getting old now, so don't hold it against her too much."

Ben took the water with a grim face and drank it in one go, still feeling the frustration inside him.

Simone continued, "But as your own mother, it's not right for her to completely disregard your feelings…"

"And besides, the Shaw family should rightfully be yours to take over. I wouldn't complain if it weren't for the fact that if it goes to Charlotte… She's so close to her biological mother, and not at all close to you. She probably already knows about our betrayal of Yasmin. When she really takes control of the Shaw family, it won't be difficult for her to kick us out and seek revenge for h

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 1708

    Anyway, it wasn't really a serious wedding.Whitney was fully focused on Caleb now, so she didn’t know what Yvonne was planning to do, nor did she want to know."Yvonne, you have your reasons. I understand. You don't need to apologize to me, and you don't need to explain. It’s just there’s nothing much I can do to help.""I never intended to ask for your help. It's my wedding, so I have to handle it myself. But if anything happens on your side, call me right away."Georgina also came by and said similar things to Yvonne's.Whitney vaguely sensed they were planning something, but she didn't have the energy to analyze it in detail.Only Jane stayed with her continuously in Nelana.After a few days, Charlotte arrived with the children and luggage."With Tanner here, you don't need to worry too much," she said.Whitney forced a faint smile. "Thank you."Jane carried Henry over. "He can talk now, but he hasn't officially met you all yet."She told Henry, "This is Aunt Whitney."

    Blake couldn't directly get involved in the case here.Although those people couldn't escape, he couldn't give them any chance and had to go back to apply for the necessary procedures.Jane said, "I've already bought the tickets. We'll meet up in Jisaston then."Whitney told her to go back to Jeswood first, saying she had to inform her husband and son and bring some clothes over.Jane said, "I'm fine. Charlotte will help me bring clothes and the child will come with me. You don't need to worry about those things."Before departure, Tanner said she could give Whitney some time.She went to the small apartment to handle the things there.She also ran into the person Dianne had arranged.He was a boy about their age. He seemed to have a bright personality.He looked thin but was surprisingly strong.Moreover, he was actually Dianne's personal bodyguard."Dianne said others can't be trusted with this, so she sent me over. Just tell me what you’ve bought and I'll handle everythin

    When Whitney signed, her right hand trembled greatly.But she knew she had to sign the notice quickly.She forced herself to sign quickly.Carter and Tanner had already gone inside to treat Caleb.The nurse who came to get Whitney's signature comforted her with a few words, then turned and went into the emergency room.Philip and Janet had returned from their prayers.Janet held a cross and chanted her prayers at the emergency room door.She really had no other options.Everyone stood silently by the emergency room door.Whitney's fever hadn't fully gone down yet.Yvonne and Jane wanted her to sit down, but she insisted on standing, and they didn't push her.This surgery was shorter than the last time.Tanner came out first and told Whitney, "There's no immediate danger to life, he's under observation in the ICU for now, and all vital signs have stabilized. We need to transfer him to Nelana, where I can better take care of him."Whitney nodded repeatedly. "Thank you, Dr. M

    But his face wasn't too badly damaged.It was probably because he had deliberately protected it while avoiding the explosion."He cared quite a lot about his face. If he had protected his crotch, maybe..."Tanner asked Carter, "Don’t you care about your face?"Carter did care, after all, this was the only thing he had left.The rest of him was useless to Mandy.If he became a monster, he wouldn't be worthy of her."I can only treat him step by step," said Tanner. "You should tell his family."Carter went out to speak with Philip and Janet.Janet stumbled. She knew what Tanner meant.If even Tanner wasn't confident, it was definitely a bad sign."If I had known earlier, I should have gone to pray. I didn't know my son was facing such a great calamity."Philip hugged Janet. He didn't believe in gods or anything, but now he had no choice but to believe."We should go now. There's still time."Blake made a call and went to find Yvonne."How is it?"The man shook his head.

    Although Caleb protected her, but the attack happened too suddenly, and those people were determined to kill them, so Whitney was also injured.She didn't rest properly, and her wounds became infected. Coupled with a concussion, she developed a high fever."Quick, get a doctor to check on her.""I'll do it." Tanner came over and sat beside Whitney.Whitney suddenly grabbed Tanner's hand tightly.Usually, when Tanner appeared with Carter, it meant something serious.Like before, when Zachary was injured in Northern Manya, or when Gilbert had cancer."What exactly happened to Caleb?""Was it...?"Tanner patted her hand gently. "I just arrived, I don't know the details yet."Whitney relaxed her grip. "Dr. Mayes, please go to the emergency room.""It's not my turn yet," said Tanner, taking her pulse. "Carter just notified me to come first. If they need me, he will come out from the emergency room. Don't worry for now. Also, you need to take care of yourself so you can wait for h

    "What about Caleb?"The bodyguard's eyes flickered. "I'll take you to the hospital first. Mr. Collins... Mr. Collins will be fine."But Whitney didn't leave, she even wanted to join the rescue.She didn't want anything to do with him, but that didn’t mean she wanted him dead.She didn't know what she was feeling exactly, but just the thought of him dying made her heart ache so much she couldn't breathe."Mrs. Collins!"The bodyguard had to forcibly take Whitney away.But he didn't dare to use too much force, afraid of hurting her.If Mr. Collins found out, he would surely kill him.She almost slipped away, rushing forward.Suddenly, a person lunged out, holding a knife and trying to stab her with it.The bodyguard immediately stepped forward and blocked the knife.The rescue team had also arrived.Along with Caleb's bodyguards, they caught several people.The tanker truck was also pursued by the Hilton family's bodyguards. They worked together with the police to seize the
