Hellen received a call from the director of the detective agency. Tomas mistress, as well as the home he’d set up, had all been found out. She immediately went to the agency.
Just then, Imelda came out of her room and saw her mother. “Where are you going, Mom?”
Hellen replied as she grabbed her car keys, “The agency called. Your dad’s matters have been uncovered. I’m going over.”
Hellen said as she headed out, “I’m curious which little vixen is so shameless!”
It did not occur to Hellen that she was also a shameless vixen back then.
Imelda got interested too, saying, “I’m going with you, Mom.”
“What are you going over for?”
“You’re so easily riled up. I’ll have to be there to stop you!”
Imelda walked over. “Even if you really want to exact revenge on that vixen, we have to plan it well and not be impulsive! I&r
This had nothing to do with her status as the official wife, nor anything to do with loving Tomas. It’s purely because she hadn’t completely shifted all of Tomas assets to her name. How much she stood to lose if they divorced!Hellen was both sulky and furious, feeling the weight of both emotions. And worse, she got yelled at by Imelda, so the thought that Imelda also reckoned Tomas wanted to divorce her to marry that vixenInstantly, she burst into tears with a loud wail. “I’m angry and I’m scared, and you still wish me dead?” she cried.“Mom, don’t be unreasonable! How could I want you dead?” Resigned, Imelda parked the car by the curbside.“It’s because your actions just now were too dangerous. I know you’re angry, but you can’t treat both our lives carelessly! It’s that vixen and Dad who’s wrong, yet you’re the one who’s going to be hurt first? What&r
Early on a Monday morning, Hellen woke at 6 AM. She and Imelda usually slept until 10 in the morning.Now that Imelda up as well, both headed towards Claire parents’ home. When they reached the building, it was only 7AM.Because they were early enough, the roads were not jammed. But the residents were all up and about by this time. The youths did not appear much, as they need not wake so early to go to work.But the aged all came out for their activities, from exercising. They were everywhere.Hence, Hellen couldn’t see them at this timing. The cold of the dawn brings the lively air of the masses. The beauty of commonness overflows in this ordinary residential area.It’s just that Imelda and her mom couldn’t feel this beauty at all. They looked at these people busying about in disdain, feeling that they were darting about and working hard for life, waking early in the morning to bargain with the vendors. They were really ext
“This is our child. If there’s anything, we can always talk it out and teach her,” Mrs. Johnson said. “The child is already grown up; we can’t hit her anymore.”“We can’t teach her anymore! You heard what she said just now too! She won’t listen to us teaching her at all!” Mr. Johnson said furiously. “When a child is grown up, we can’t discipline her anymore!“But I can’t let her disgrace the name of my family! I’ve lived here for decades, and I’ve never been so ashamed!” Mr. Johnson said furiously. “I didn’t teach them well. She’s grown up now, but she doesn’t rely on her own work to live decently and actually went to become someone else’s mistress! And she’s still so indignant about being a mistress, thinking that that woman downstairs is no big deal. She thinks she’s not in the wrong?” Mr. Johnson raised t
“Why don’t you release her? You can discuss calmly. It might be a misunderstanding,” someone said.Claire appeared extremely pitiful.“What misunderstanding? There’s no misunderstanding!” Hellen was shrill. “I’ve already done a background check on her! Do you need me to release her intimate pictures before believing me!”“Slap!”One hand grabbing Claire’s hair, Hellen gave one tight slap with her free hand.“Such an innocent, pretty face, yet you use this innocent face to commit all those immoral things!” her free hand then pinched Claire’s cheeks forcefully.“Who knows, she might have already seduced your men! Such women are just shameless sl*ts. She doesn’t care about wealth; she’s just born to seduce other men!”“Enough! You’re going overboard!” Mrs. Johnson shouted upon hearing Hellen’s wo
And the woman couldn’t even remember her name.“You’ve got to be careful,” the auntie said. “You should look at your mom as a lesson to be learned. Your mom used to be young and pretty, and that’s why your dad abandoned his original spouse. The wife who was laboring over household chores turned into a haggard woman, and that’s why he came to hate her.“And now look, he hates your mom for becoming old and ugly, so he went for a younger one.“You’ve got to learn from her!” The auntie was either truly cautioning Imelda or further aggravating her. “Isn’t your fiancé stolen from your sister too? I remember now. Your fiancé didn’t like that your sister was unloved by your dad. He thought being with her was disadvantageous, and that’s why he moved on to you, wasn’t it?” The auntie was rather up-to-date.“So you’ve got to beware too. You
“Miss Johnson,” Anna greeted.“Thanks for the person you sent. Things proceeded smoothly,” she said. Anna sighed in relief upon hearing that.At first, Claire had approached her and asked her about Tomas taste in women. Anna had thought she was greedy and was after Tomas money.She’d assumed that Claire thought, since Anna and Hellen were at odds with each other, Anna would help her for sure in seducing Tomas and upsetting Hellen.Hence, Anna hadn’t planned to tell Claire anything much. She could seduce Tomas all she wanted, but Anna wouldn’t help her at all.Unexpectedly, Claire said, “I want revenge, and I want to gather evidence. To give my brother the justice he deserves and for Tomas to be punished!”Anna then decided to continue hearing Claire out. “What exactly is the matter?”Claire recounted how her brother went to jail because of accepting bribes. In reality,
Claire had been beaten by Hellen until her face was swollen. She did not dare to laugh at this moment. Even lifting her lips slightly felt painful.She wanted to chuckle a little at first, but she could not even laugh now. She carefully moved the corners of her lips as she said, “I purposely didn’t retaliate and just let her hit me. Only in this way would Tomas feel even more heartache for me and hate her even more.”After all, right now, she had the advantage of having a pretty face. Hellen was long past the peak of her prime. She was old now and her looks had also deteriorated.Just based on looks, even Tomas would know whom to feel bad for.At this stage, there was not much for Anna to persuade her about. She knew her plans, so she ended the call.Claire ended the call and zoned out for a moment. After a long pause, she then gave a call to the manager in the secretarial office, saying that she wanted to take leave today and wou
He took big strides over and yanked Hellen over at once. “What are you causing a ruckus for!”“What am I causing a ruckus for?” Hellen yanked her elbow out and shook off his hand. “Can you possibly not know what I’m causing a ruckus for? I didn’t expect that out of all the women you could find, you actually chose one that was right by your side!”On the other end of the corridor, an employee sputtered out in a hushed giggle and said in a low voice, “What’s there not to expect? Wasn’t she the woman who could not be any closer to him back then? She was his younger sister-in-law.”“You only know how to talk!” The colleague beside her was so entertained by her.“Don’t spout rubbish here and ruin a young lady’s reputation!” Tomas shouted sternly.“Yo! tomas, when did you become a gentleman? You can even spare a thought for other people&rsquo
One week later, wake of down the media was in uproar by what happened the night before, no one expected the downfall of Cobby family within a night. The family were happy celebrating with the other rich family daughter that was to have engagement with mike.The engagement was set for the other week and it was day for formality where the girls family would come and visit the boy’s family.During the dinner the FBI budge into the house and arrested all the Cobby family that include mike as his company was also involved with shady business. The arrest was to first that they had no time to react at all.With all the evidence against them, no one wanted to associate with them as they were afraid of being implicated. Even the girl’s family cut ties with them.Monday morning was an uproar, with all media outlet reporting about the downfall of the Cobby family. Imelda watched the news with mockery laughter, as she saw the Cobby family being take
He found a good angle in the kitchen, set up the phone stand, and fixed his phone on the stand. Then he realized, “This is not right. If I live stream, then I won’t be able to search recipes on my phone. Wait for a while.”He went to take the iPad. Searched for the recipe and then started cooking. He was preparing sun side egg, sausages and some toast bread with bacon and fruit juice. But all was through Anna’s guidance.Finally, a simple breakfast was completed. He hurriedly carried it back.Anna took a small table and placed it on the bed, then ate on the bed with George.“Try it.” It was his first time making breakfast. It looked alright, but he was not sure about the taste and felt a little nervous.Anna looked at George’s hand, which was placed on the small table. His fingers looked so nice, as if they had never gotten dirty. These beautiful hands had just made her breakfast.Although the meal w
George propped Anna up to sit. Anna still looked like a boneless lump of meat. After she had eaten the candy, her throat felt cold and much better. Her voice sounded more normal.However, it was so painful that even after she woke up, she did not want to move at all. Leaning on the pillow, she tilted her head lazily towards George until it fell on his shoulder. “I don’t want to get up. I don’t want to move.”Anna pouted and said, “Lazy.”George turned his head and kissed her lips a few times. “Then, are you hungry?”“I don’t feel hungry now but I might be later.” She raised her arm and placed it on her stomach.Even the movement of raising her arm made her arm extremely sore.Just because of this, she did not want to get out of bed today. She was thinking about it and said out loud, “I don’t want to get out of bed today.”Who knew that right after Anna
The thing that Anna worried about did not exist at all.Even if she did not wear makeup, she could still look amazing in this grand and exquisite wedding dress.That small face of hers looked exceptionally exquisite with this wedding dress.“How is my wife so beautiful?” George muttered. It was as if he said it subconsciously and had accidentally voiced his thoughts.She clearly heard him say such things quite often usually, but at this moment, George’s careful and gentle gaze coupled with his words made her feel so shy that she could not even lift her head up.Yet George was still staring at her. He even took another two steps back so that he could see her from top to toe at once.Although Anna’s head was lowered, she could still clearly feel his gaze on her. Seeing that he was actually not done staring, Anna finally could not help but look up, feeling a little shy as she said, “What are you still staring at?&r
George and Anna returned home. When Anna was done washing up in the bathroom and opened the door, she saw George blocking her right at the door.He had already changed into comfortable home clothes. It was a simple short-sleeved t-shirt paired with loose and long cotton pants. She could smell the scent of shampoo and shower gel from his body, so he had probably just bathed. He did not style his hair like he did usually in the day.Now that he was relaxed, his hair also lay softly on his forehead, and he looked much younger.He was a grown, mature man who was more than thirty years old, but at this moment, he looked just like a twenty something only a few years older than a teenager, which was a far cry from how mature he usually looked like.George lowered his head and kissed her lips as she walked towards him as usual. Anna was not prepared at all and gasped, taking half a step back subconsciously.Alas, George’s movements were even faster.
The brothers made up half of the groomsmen! It’s like they were not afraid of others knowing that there were single.Old Madan Bells heard her grandson greet her. She then responded angrily, “Bad!”Gabriel and Graviel blinked innocently, wondering what had just happened.Old Mrs. Howells said in an angry tone, “This is a table full of singles. You two are part of this group and you are proud of yourselves? Do you think it’s good to be groomsmen? Married people can’t be groomsmen! Only singles can be groomsmen!”Niel felt speechless.If this grandma wanted to scold her grandsons, she should just target her grandsons. Don’t hurt the innocent ones!Niel felt as though he was being scolded as well!He raised his hand and scratched his nose as he quietly moved away from Graviel and Gabriel.: “…”Liam was unhappy. He was not single. How could Old Mrs. Howells
Finally, martin and Anna stopped in front of George. It was a short red carpet, but George felt that it was too long. Anna seemed to take forever to reach him.Just like in their previous lives, when she took an entire lifetime and a fresh start to be with him…He had waited a lifetime and finally found herMartin recalled what he just said to Anna outside the doors and immediately had a feeling like his daughter was getting stolen by someone. And he instantly understood how fathers felt marrying off their daughters. He couldn’t bear to let her go and didn’t want to hand her over.“Dad.” George reminded Martin to quickly hand Anna to him.Anna turned and saw the reluctance on Martin’s face. And she couldn’t hold back the tears any longer. She was also a daughter treasured by her father!Seeing Martin’s attitude, the guests were sure Martin really saw Anna as his own daughter. He used to help A
Anna had never thought of such a good thing before. In the past, she only thought of getting away from the William family and leading a good life with Grace.In the end, not only did she manage to get away, but she even met George. Then, after that, she thought that getting together with him was already the Heavens taking pity on her after seeing how tragic her past life had been.Yet she did not expect that she could also have a father like Martin. Martin fulfilled all the wishes and dreams she had of a father. Upright, nice, and an honorable role model for his children.“Dad,” Anna called.Martin just felt that how Anna addressed him just now was worth a thousand pieces of gold.“Yes!” martin also answered in an equally heartfelt and cherishing manner.“Thank you, thank you for letting me have a father. Thank you for treating me like your biological daughter. I never thought that I could have such a wonderful
Anyway, George and Anna were already husband and wife. They had simply posed an appropriate challenge for the men when they came to fetch the bride and would consider it a pass once they’d had some fun.They would not really stop George.So when they reached the door to Anna’s bedroom, Nicole and the others did not stop him. They just smiled happily and waited for him to enter.George glanced at them with uncertainty and caution as he asked, “You’re letting me in now?”Nicole tsked and said, “You think we’re letting you enter too easily, is that it?”As she said that, Nicole took out her phone and said, “Then you wait for a moment, I will search and see if there are any other ways to prank the groom.”“Wait!” George immediately stopped her and said, “Please have mercy, please have mercy!”Nicole could not help but laugh and say, “I was letting yo
