"Young madam, what's going on?" asked the captain of the security team, after rushing over and saluting Jenna as soon as he saw her there. Jenna had just arrived and didn't know much about what had happened, except that the chaos was related to Aria's gown. She turned her head and asked Sabrina, "Sabrina, what actually happened?" "We were just teaching this villain a lesson. It has nothing to do with all of you, you may leave," Sabrina said as she gestured to the guards. Being in charge, she told the guards, "Your job is to protect our safety as well as the guests, and deal with burglars or thieves, not interfere with our fights. Off you go." The security guards left as soon as they heard Sabrina's orders. Minnie began to cry even harder, as she pointed at Jenna and screamed, "You b*tch, I know that you're unhappy that you were chased out from the Richards Manor. Now, you're jealous that Mr. Richards loves Ms. McAdams and no longer loves you. So, you told them t
"I won't do it. It didn't have anything to do with me." Jenna retorted as her face darkened. "You won't go?" Hansen's creepy smirk became more apparent, and his cold words were like a sharp knife. "It's fine if you won't go. I'll just have to chase Sabrina and Zoey out of Richards Manor since they're the ones who started it. You better consider which consequence is more important." Jenna's face turned pale in an instant. He was going to treat Sabrina and Zoey so cruelly just because they offended his fianc?e? That was inhumane of him. "Hansen, you're too much. You should know that Sabrina is Norton's fiancee. She loves him and Norton wants to marry her as well. However, Sabrina might now be able to forgive Norton if she knows his dark backstory. So, you should be flattering her instead, yet you're trying to chase her out? That's very daring of you! What about Zoey? She's your cousin. Your beloved cousin since you were kids. You're going to treat her like that just bec
"Are you sure Hansen will make Jenna come and apologize to me?" Aria was wearing a blue dress, looking exquisite and alluring. That beautiful gown only earned a morning's worth of attention before it was destroyed, and Aria was very angry and gloomy about it. If Hansen couldn't deal with this well, she would seize this opportunity to get rid of all the people who were against her. She planned to use her father's help to pressure Hansen into chasing those women out of Richards Manor and take charge of the household affairs herself. "Ms. McAdams, Mayor McAdams called Hansen over and told him about that had happened, and Hansen promised that he'd give you a satisfactory solution. Just now, it was so interesting in the office, it was a pity that you weren't there to watch, Ms. McAdams. Mr. Richards' face was full of rage, and he scolded Sabrina and Zoey so badly that they cried. He also promised that he would make Jenna come apologize to you." Minnie said happily. Just as she w
"Hansen." Aria said softly and shyly with her face blushing pink as she held onto his arm. She had been listening to the commotion outside, and quickly ran out as soon as she heard Hansen s voice. "Oh my god, she s so ugly. This is disgusting." Hannah complained as she looked at Aria s pretentious face. It made her nauseous, to the point that she was about to collapse on the ground from all the goosebumps surfacing on her body. Aria s face darkened, but as soon as she saw that it was Hannah Adames who was insulting her, she kept her anger down. Minnie might not have known the name Hannah Adames, but Aria sure did. "Hannah Adames, I've never offended you. Did you really have to insult me like that?" she said delicately and pathetically, with an expression full of innocence. "Hansen, look at them. All of them have terrible attitudes. They're even insulting me and mocking me in front of you." Aria felt wronged, and pressed her plump chest against Hansen's arm t
"Remember, the two of you will have to stake out here. You must get your hands on this woman within two days," said Damon, who is Brock's minion, to the two men with a cigarette in his mouth, as he took his phone out and showed them a picture of a woman. "D*mn, this woman looks pretty. We should have some fun with her when we bring her back." One of the men snickered with a perverted face and a mouth full of teeth that were stained due to the cigarette smoke. "Don't worry, this woman is already three months pregnant. Our boss had said that once we bring her back, she's ours to enjoy. We can play with her until her baby is gone." Damon smirked wickedly. "This woman is worth ten million, and she's for you guys to enjoy. You'd better try your best." "This is a good benefit. Let me take a closer look. Wow, her skin looks so smooth and tender, she must be a high quality product. It's a pity that she's pregnant. Therefore, she's no longer a virgin. Her 'parts' must not be t
"Jen, let's go over there," Rayan said to her gently once Hansen and Aria walked past them. Jenna nodded, and then realized she had been holding onto Rayan's hand so tightly that her palms were sweating. She jolted, feeling surprised, and quickly let go of his hand. Her anxious gaze met Rayan's eyes, which looked down at her with a tender and encouraging smile. A gush of warmth surged in her heart, and she smiled coyly. Suddenly, she felt a chill go down her spine. An icy glare shot right at her, but as she raised her eyes, the glare had disappeared. She took a closer look in that direction, and saw Hansen and Aria standing on a platform of the tower of Central Island, which was a very eye-catching location. Was that cold glare from him? Jenna wasn't sure. Hansen could definitely see them from that height. However, the chances that it was him was probably very low. He was no longer bothered by her, so there was no reason for him to show her such coldness.
The charity event was hosted personally by Jenna. It achieved great results as Jenna had expected. The children received donations for their education expenses all the way up until they graduate from high school. Jenna was elated to see the results and was glad that the banquet was not held in vain. Instead, it was very meaningful. At that moment, she stood on the stage with her bare face and simple outfit, yet she was the most beautiful one in the hall. A light and graceful aura radiated from her throughout the whole event. Everyone was astonished, suddenly remembering that she was Hansen's ex-wife. However, very soon, the attention she received disappeared very quickly, and she was soon forgotten by the crowd the minute she left the stage. After the charity event, Jenna felt relieved and relaxed. As long as Aria was taking charge of the banquet, she didn't have much to do. In addition to her flawless plans, Aria was born into a distinguished family. So, she was used to ha
Earl and Georgia accompanied Marissa to the VIP room on Central Island. They were chatting and laughing together. There was going to be a grand banquet the next day, and Earl would have to go on stage to give a speech for the closing ceremony of the New Year Banquet at Richards Manor. Aria returned to the VIP room, and the feeling of panic and fear finally started to subside. After a while, she started feeling cold. She remembered that she had a mink fur shawl and called out with a frown, "Minnie, where's my mink fur shawl. Come and drape it over me. I'm cold." But even after a few consecutive calls, she didn't hear a reply. She was surprised for a moment, and she had a bad feeling about it. She quickly ordered the guards to look for Minnie. After sitting next to Earl with her phone in her hands for more than an hour, the guards returned and told her that they couldn't find Minnie. Aria's eyelids started to quiver. She had called her many times, but
Santiago went home once more to retrieve Jepherson's sperm from the sperm bank. After that, Raeleigh got pregnant through medical procedures. However, when Raeleigh was only three days pregnant, the doctor made a major discovery. He informed her that he made progress with Shaney's illness , and that he might have misdiagnosed her condition. At that time, Raeleigh had been so overjoyed that Shaney was fine, and she only remembered that she was pregnant after half a month since learning about Shaney. By the time she remembered that she was with child, she wanted to stop her pregnancy. However, Santiago persuaded her to give the baby to him. Raeleigh pondered about it for a long time before finally agreeing. ...... Time passed in a blink of an eye, and Raeleigh had never expected for things to turn out the way it did. She gave birth to her second child, and Shaney had made a full recovery. Santiago had told her that the baby was the will of God, and he
When Raeleigh got out of the car, she began staring at the Richards family's courtyard. Although the Richards family had already buried Marissa's body, Raeleigh was still unwilling to go back. However, as she gazed at Carsten's precious little face that was looking at her expectantly, she had no choice but to follow Jepherson inside. At that moment, Santigo and the other children were in the yard. When Santiago saw Raeleigh and Jepherson, he smiled and gestured at Jepherson. "What are you doing?" Raeleigh asked when she saw Santiago. "Nothing." Though Raeleigh did not believe Jepherson, she decided not to ask further. When Carsten saw Forden and Shaney, he immediately tried to break away from Jepherson's arms, wanting to get to them. The children were all gathered in the Richards family manor that day. Coupled with the four other children of the Whalen family, there were ten children altogether, and they almost occupied the entire courtyard. Ra
Raeleigh said nothing as Carsten continued sinking his teeth into Jepherson's neck. She stared in shock as blood seeped out of his wound. Jepherson raised his hand and patted Carsten gently, then walked to the bed and sat down. After a while, Carsten finally fell asleep. He closed his eyes as he dozed off in Jepherson's arms. Meanwhile, Raeleigh had rushed out of the room to ask the hotel staff to prepare disinfectants before going back into the room to help Jepherson clean his wound. Jepherson leaned against the wall, still holding Carsten in his arms and unwilling to let go. Raeleigh frowned. "What should we do?" Jepherson's voice was a little hoarse. He had been busy for the past two days entertaining guests. "He got scared because of the crowd. He thought that you didn't want him anymore since he couldn't find you, and probably thinks that I'm the one who forced him to stay there." After bandaging Jepherson's wound, Raeleigh helped wipe Carsten's mouth. Sudd
After Raeleigh and the others left, Santiago walked to Zorion's car and stopped him. Zorion casted a glance outside. "Rossie, you should go first. He won't show any mercy once I get off." "You knew he wouldn't show you mercy, so why didn't you think of that before you caused trouble?" "I was just kidding! Who knew he'd have such a bad temper? I didn't expect him to take it seriously." Rossie sighed and gave in. Glancing at Zorion, she finally understood that he was only using her as an excuse to escape whenever he got into trouble. She got out of the car and looked at Santiago who stood opposite her. "Long time no see." "Where's Zorion?" "He's so afraid of you that he doesn't even dare to come out," said Rossie. "It's too late to be scared." He walked up to Zorion's car with the rod in his hand, then raised the stick and smashed it against the car until it was completely wrecked. When he was done, he tossed the stick aside, turned to pick
After leaving the kindergarten, Raeleigh followed Santiago to the Richards family manor. It had been four years since she returned, so she was no longer familiar with the place. Santiago went in, put Carsten down and asked the children to keep themselves entertained. He then looked at Raeleigh and said, "I came back this time because Mrs. Richards is dying. She has been unconscious for a while now. I came back to see her for the last time." Raeleigh asked, "Mrs. Richards?" "Yes. Jepherson hasn't been home these couple of days because he has gone to visit her. He didn't tell you about it because Mrs. Richards doesn't want to see you. While she was still herself, she did say that she would never let you into the family, and that she didn't want to see you ever again. Jepherson went to take care of her but was worried about you. So, he asked me to come home to take a look and it was only then did I find out that Carsten is autistic. This is on your plate now."
When the time came, Raeleigh enrolled Carsten into a kindergarten. On the first day of school, Carsten was bullied. Raeleigh felt sorry for him as she gently touched his swollen face. He had been beaten because he could not speak. She wanted to confront the bully, but Jepherson stopped her. He told her that Carsten should resolve this matter by himself. That year, Raeleigh could not sleep well at night. Hair loss became an issue, and she was exhausted all the time. But after half a month, the children stopped bullying Carsten. Instead, their parents came to Raeleigh's home. "Just take a look at your child..." The parents pointed to their child, and Raeleigh was confused when she saw a boy about the same height as Carsten. The boy seemed to have taken a serious beating, but when Carsten had gotten beaten up like this, Raeleigh hadn't gone to look for trouble with the bully's parents, did she? Raeleigh retorted, "And? It's normal for
The snow was falling heavily. Jepherson put away the phone and took Raeleigh back into the house. The two stood inside and watched the snow. Meanwhile, Hadrian and Scarlette were busy in the kitchen, not daring to make a sound. The Richards family manor remained quiet when winter was approaching. None of the family members returned even on New Year's Day. Raeleigh went to the yard and waited for them in advance, but no one came back. After New Year's Day, Raeleigh returned to her home with Jepherson. Her family members were all surprised to see her pregnant when she got home. They did not expect Raeleigh to be pregnant after being missing for several months. Moreover, she was almost due. Everyone in the Osteen family knew that Raeleigh stayed because of the baby inside her belly. Undoubtedly, the baby was Jepherson's. However, they wondered where Santiago went. Since Raeleigh said nothing, no one dared to ask about it. They all ignored the incident and sil
Raeleigh was stopped by Jepherson's men at the entrance of the village. 'I knew it wouldn't be easy for me to run away.' "Madam Raeleigh, Mr. Richards is waiting for you." Raeleigh had no choice but to go back with them. At the same time, Jepherson sat on his wheelchair outside the village with a blanket on his lap and upon seeing Raeleigh, he breathed a sigh of relief. Raeleigh walked up to him, "Don't be complacent. I'll leave one day." Shifting his gaze to Raeleigh's belly, Jepherson stretched out his hand and pulled her to him. Despite being too weak to walk, he had a firm grip. Raeleigh lost her balance and fell onto his lap. She tried to escape, but he said immediately, "Don't move." Although his voice sounded terrifying to others, he was trying to negotiate. Everyone turned around to look at them, and Raeleigh blushed. Jepherson covered her body with the blanket, then placed his hand onto her belly. Raeleigh tensed up immediately. She ra
Raeleigh had been depressed for a while after Santiago's departure. After a few days, she finally calmed down a little. Jepherson's health had not improved during this period of time. Whenever he was free, he would stare at Shaney's photo in a daze. Deanna and Jacky had helped take care of Jepherson when Raeleigh fell ill. After Raeleigh recovered, she returned to taking care of him herself. However, Jepherson had been in such poor health that he couldn't even go downstairs. It took Raeleigh a lot of effort to help him get down, especially when he was unwilling to go downstairs. "Autumn is coming. I don't want to go down." He was saying that it was cold downstairs. Raeleigh replied, "I can't take care of you all the time. Are you going to exhaust me to death? Your parents left you alone and ignored you. Santiago abandoned you too. What do you want me to do? I have to work. I also have to take care of you..." "Then stop working. Take care of me." Rael
