In the interrogation room, Rosa still refused to cooperate with the investigation.She was seated in the suspect's chair, her arms tightly crossed. Her eyes reflected both contempt and disgust. "I advise you to stop the interrogation. It would be in your best interest to release me now, or you'll definitely come to regret it. "You all are just a bunch of small fry. And you all think you can challenge me? I suggest you save your words."Do you even know who I am? I am the president's beloved niece! The future of the Quinn family lies in my hands. Should you ever cross paths with me in the future, I will show no mercy!"For over 24 hours, Rosa had been in custody. Her demeanor remained haughty and arrogant as she blatantly disregarded legal protocols. She also repeatedly invoked her familial connection to the president to assert her authority.The police officers wanted to interrogate her, but she remained uncooperative. At the slightest provocation, she would unleash a stream
A throng of people surrounded Mandy's private room in the hospital. Various distressful screams emanated from the inside. "Ms. Mandy, could you please come down? We can talk about these issues.""That's right, Ms. Mandy. It's quite chilly outside. You should quickly come down. Exposing yourself to the cold is not advisable, especially considering your current state of health."Mandy's attending physician and nurses were all trying to persuade her.Romelius quickly pushed his way through the crowd. The scene before him nearly made him faint.Mandy was sitting unsteadily on the window ledge of her room that lacked shielding, dressed in a thin hospital gown.The wind was so forceful that it felt as though it could sweep her off the ledge at any given moment.This was the 23rd floor. If Mandy were to fall, she would likely be killed instantly."Mandy, why are you sitting there? Come down quickly."Upon hearing Romelius' voice, Mandy's distant gaze shifted away from the outside wo
As soon as Lana walked in, she saw Mandy being tightly held by Romelius. Her legs suddenly gave way, and she slid to the floor.She was still gasping for breath. Her temples were drenched in sweat. She sighed in relief and said, "I … I'm so glad I made it in time!""Lana …" Mandy's heart raced as she finally saw her. She was so overwhelmed with emotions that she could barely speak. She quickly left Romelius' embrace, crawled over to Lana, and hugged her tightly.Lana didn't speak either. She hugged Mandy tightly with all her might.Romelius, belatedly realizing what had happened, quickly crawled over and tightly embraced the mother-daughter duo.At that moment, the family of three were finally reunited.After the initial burst of excitement, Lana was the first to regain her composure."Mom, Dad, now that we're finally reunited, we must stick together to brave through this challenging period."Mandy and Romelius were momentarily stunned. They didn't expect Lana to be so direct.
Rosa was caught in a rather precarious situation.On the one hand, Devon and Marion were about to have their own child. On the other hand, Romelius had an illegitimate daughter, Lana, who was vying for the Quinn family inheritance. Rosa was overwhelmed by the situation."Mom, is all of this true?"Rosa tossed the phone aside and gazed at Joyce with a desolate expression. "Ever since I met Lana, I hadn't had a single good thing happen to me!"Could Lana be the harbinger of misfortune?Rosa was deeply entrenched in self-doubt.Meanwhile, Joyce felt the same way as well.Ever since their family of three returned to Zanteles, Romelius somehow managed to reconnect with Mandy. From then on, everything seemed to have gone astray—constantly developing in a direction she didn't want it to.Joyce sighed as she pulled Rosa to sit down next to her. "Rosa, you have to fix your attitude. You're no longer the sole heir of the Quinn family."You can't be as willful as you used to anymore. O
Rosa believed that someone as outstanding as Liam should not be with a woman as wicked as Lana. Someone like him should have been with someone as exceptional as herself.Rosa decided to help Liam see the truth and cut his losses before things worsen."Liam, how can you speak to me like that?" Rosa said, as her eyes welled up with tears.She gazed at Liam in a pitiful manner. "Do you even know who I am?"Liam looked at her indifferently. "Does your identity have anything to do with me?"Rosa was infuriated to the point of fainting. She bellowed, "I am the president's beloved niece!"Rosa just wanted to help Liam see the truth. However, having spent so much time with Lana, Liam's words had become increasingly blunt. "So what? I don't care about you at all!"Rosa felt like she had been slapped in the face. She was so angry that she was shaking."Fine, even if you don't know who I am, then do you know who she is?"Liam lowered his head to look at Lana, his lips curling into a sedu
With Devon's interruption, Lana finally halted her action.Joyce ran frantically toward Devon as if her life depended on it. Then, Devon quickly instructed someone to bring a pair of scissors and began cutting open the sutures around her lips.Joyce screamed in agony. It was the most terrifying scene she had witnessed in her entire life. As soon as her mouth was free from the sutures, she clung to Devon and Priscilla. Joyce exclaimed, "Grandma, Devon, you must seek justice for me! You can't just let them do this to me! "These people are so brazen. They even had the audacity to behave like this at the presidential palace!"Joyce was determined to make Lana and Liam pay for what they had done.Before Devon could react, Liam had already shielded Lana behind him. He said, "Mr. President, you should understand the saying, 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,' right? This woman was the one who started it. Do you really not know what this woman has done?"Devon under
Devon promptly picked up the documents on the floor and began to look through them.After he was done going through them, he gave Joyce a kick.Devon gritted his teeth and said, "So it was you all along? The death of our unborn first child was not an accident but a deliberate scheme of yours! Those car accidents we experienced were also your doing. What have we done to you to deserve all these?"After Devon spoke, he lifted his foot to kick Joyce again. Joyce couldn't help but close her eyes in fear.Devon was usually quite gentle and refined. He rarely had conflict with anyone. But now, he resorted to violence, which showed how unscrupulous Joyce's actions were."Uncle Devon, what are you doing?" Rosa ran downstairs and hurriedly shielded Joyce.She immediately cried out, "Why are you hitting my mother? What has she done wrong?"Devon withdrew his foot, his heart filled with despair. Devon replied, "Rosa, I have reasons for doing this. How about you go upstairs for now? This
Romelius went home to handle Joyce's matters, so Lana stayed behind to look after Mandy.Since her emotions were still unstable, Romelius and Lana discussed it and decided to ask the doctor to perform the surgery earlier.Mandy felt sorry for Liam, who had also stayed behind to look after her."Lee, you should go back. I'm fine with just Lana accompanying me."Liam, who had already settled in, responded righteously, "Wherever my wife goes, I go!"Lana was at a loss for words.How could Liam be so shameless in his sweet-talking?Mandy had never been able to control him, so she could only let him be.However, she was still a little worried about Lana and Liam's relationship.Mandy and Darla were best friends, and Lana was her daughter. However, Liam and Darla were siblings.Mandy couldn't help but smile when she thought about Darla and her becoming a family through Lana and Liam.As soon as dawn broke, Romelius returned to the hospital.He looked haggard, with dark circles un
Would Lana forgive him and spend the rest of her life with him?Liam's heart was filled with a sense of anticipation.Since the reason for the incident had been clarified, everyone let out a sigh of relief at the same time and also went back to rest. Even Leonardo was taken away just to give the two people who had been apart for a long time some space to be alone.After everyone had left, Liam straightened out his clothes and approached Lana, then proceeded to slowly crouch down."Lana!"In the man's deep and sexy voice, there was an unusual tremor and a hint of choked emotion.Liam had no idea what kept him going during these years after losing Lana.Liam didn't dare to do anything too bold. Instead, he gently leaned his handsome face against Lana's hand, repeatedly calling her name.Three years had already passed since Lana left in a fit of anger, setting off a series of events afterward.If she still had any resentment, it would have vanished when she saw Liam's tall figu
Liam's outstretched hand awkwardly hung in the air, and eventually, he could only withdraw it."Speak up if you have something to say, or else, stay quiet. We're not in the mood to listen to you." Hector's attitude toward Liam was still unfavorable, to the extent that he didn't even want to see him.Lana suddenly said, "Something very serious actually happened today."Following that, she placed Leonardo down and showed everyone the wound on his neck.A ring of red marks surrounded Leonardo's delicate neck. In some places, the marks were so swollen that it looked like a tire had been wrapped around his neck. It was a shocking sight to behold.Hector, Violet, Mandy, and Romelius were immediately enraged."What happened to Leo?""What happened to his neck? It could have been fatal if it was any worse.""Who was responsible for watching Leo today? How could they be so negligent and let the child get injured so badly?""This doesn't look like any ordinary wound. It looks like it wa
"Stop looking at me like that. If you want to kill or torture me, go ahead." Cynthia knew what would happen to her after the truth came out, so she gave up struggling. "However, even after my death, I'll haunt you for the rest of your life!"As they listened to her absurd threat, Lana and the Traffic Light Trio burst into laughter."If ghosts were real, then Emilia would be the first to look for you."When her deceased sister was mentioned, Cynthia's smile remained unchanged. "That fool probably never knew it was me who betrayed her until her death."Considering the situation, Cynthia didn't believe she could leave the Garrison Villa tonight."What exactly do you gain by single-handedly destroying the Cooper family?"Lana was still very confused by Cynthia's actions.After all, Emilia and Cynthia were twins and had the same blood coursing through their veins. With all the Coopers gone, Cynthia had nothing to gain from it either!Cynthia sneered at Lana's question. "Lana, yo
On the evening of the banquet, the Garrison Villa was bustling with distinguished guests.Initially, everyone's attention was on the precious great-grandson of the Garrison and Kane family. With his confident and lively demeanor, the chubby child was absolutely adorable. Everyone was naturally curious about who the child might have chosen as his stepmother.It should be noted that the Garrison and Kane family only had one great-grandson. His future was destined to be extraordinary. As long as one could control the child, it was much more worthwhile than dealing with those individuals from the two affluent families.After all, the elders from the two families were very attentive and doting toward this child. Surprisingly, Liam, who was said to have been away from home for a long time, had returned. During the reception of guests, he unexpectedly had a smile on his face.The ladies who had come tonight, vying for the position of Liam's wife, became even more excited.Liam typi
On the night before the banquet, Romelius and Mandy finally brought Leonardo back.Lana was overjoyed, and she immediately went to the bungalow where they were staying.At that time, Leonardo had just returned home and was playing with toys on the living room floor."Leo, you're back! Did you miss Mommy? Mommy missed you so much!"Lana ran toward Leonardo, talking to him while reaching out to hug him. In a flash, Leonardo suddenly ran toward Romelius while holding a toy car.After that, he kept hiding in his arms, refusing to come out. He would occasionally peek out from the gaps to glance at Lana.His actions clearly showed that he refused to accept Lana.Lana's enthusiasm was dampened, and her outstretched arms awkwardly remained in midair. She looked at Romelius and then at Mandy as if waiting for them to persuade Leonardo. However, these two remained silent and only greeted Lana in a casual manner."Oh, Lana, you've come?" Mandy said while presenting her with a basket o
Due to the fact that the Garrison family was going to hold a banquet to introduce the mother of their beloved great-grandson, Leonardo, the Garrisons once again became the talk of the town in Dawsbury.The last time Dawsbury was so lively was when Hector introduced the Garrison family's heir to everyone.As soon as the news was released, the Garrisons became noticeably busier in the following days. All of them were busy scurrying around and helping Hector deliver the invitations.In addition to people who had business dealings with the Garrison family, the invitations were naturally sent to people who were familiar with Lana in the past. Therefore, as soon as the Traffic Light Trio received the invitation, they didn't even go to work and immediately ran to Liam's office—intending to get an explanation from him.At that time, Liam had just finished a phone call from overseas and was deep in thought when the office door was suddenly kicked open.Lincoln stood at the door, looking
With that, Sawyer ignored the unpleasant expressions on Freya and Hector's faces. He immediately picked up his child and walked away.Hector was furious. He glared at Liam, his eyes burning with anger. It was clear that he thought Liam was the one responsible for Lana's predicament.Liam was once again innocently caught in the crossfire.Freya set aside her current tasks, offered some comforting words to Hector, and then got up and chased after them.She knew Sawyer well enough and was certain that he would never have treated someone like this unless there was a reason.As Freya's family of three left, Lana's face bore a sorrowful expression. "Since I'm not welcome here, I guess I'll just go."With that, Lana got up and walked toward the door.Hector and Violet had been waiting for Lana's return for a long time. Now that she was finally back, how could they possibly let her go?Naturally, the two of them chased after Lana and tried to talk her out of leaving. They eventually ma
Liam sensed a challenging undertone in Lana's stare. After all this time, had they truly become adversaries?Releasing Lana abruptly, Violet gently patted her arm, her eyes filled with profound hurt."You're here, alive and well. Why did you leave us in the shadows? Even if you chose not to contact anyone else, you should've considered reaching out to me. Do you have any idea how much I missed you?"Over the years, Violet had been grappling with a deep sense of loss.Though it remained an unspoken sentiment among them, Violet was aware of the underlying blame directed toward Liam for what was believed to be Lana's demise.Had Liam been more emotionally available, their relationship wouldn't have crumbled. It would've stopped Lana from seeking refuge overseas while carrying their child, an act that set the stage for her heartbreaking destiny.Witnessing Liam's anguish and believing Lana to be lost forever had taken a severe toll on Violet's health, aging her considerably."Gr
Liam guided Leo to Lana's room.As they entered, Lana was already awake, bathed in the serene morning light streaming through the window.Upon hearing their arrival, Lana, while brushing her hair, shifted her gaze toward them—a familiar scene echoing times gone by."Good morning, Liam and Leo!" she greeted them effortlessly.Without hesitation, Leonardo squirmed out of Liam's embrace and darted toward Lana, exclaiming, "Hi, Nana!"Lana paused, momentarily surprised by Leonardo's nickname. "Leo, you should be calling me 'Mommy'!" she gently corrected him.Leonardo hesitated momentarily before redirecting his attention to Liam.Even though Liam hadn't exchanged a single word with Lana, he spoke up when Leo glanced his way, firmly stating, "Feel free to do as you wish. There's no need to seek my approval. Alright?"Leonardo nodded obediently and turned his gaze back to Lana, continuing to address her as "Nana."While Lana appeared somewhat displeased by this unexpected turn of ev
