Had Cynthia disguised herself as Emilia to commit murder? Upon learning the truth, Emilia nearly collapsed."If people find out what you did, what am I supposed to do?"Emilia was truly innocent this time. How can she admit to something she didn't do? On top of that, it was murder, which was a heinous crime. Once the authorities determined it was her, Emilia would undoubtedly be done for."Why are you so afraid?" Cynthia calmly observed Emilia teetering on the brink of breakdown. "Aren't you so capable? Why aren't you speaking to me with that superior attitude you had earlier?""Cynthia, you're insane!""Yes, I am!" Cynthia admitted bluntly. "It was you who drove me insane!"They were both twins from the same mother. One of them was sent to a prominent household to become an exceedingly privileged young lady. Meanwhile, the other was forced to live in the shadows, unable to show their true face, known to only a few within the family."Have you ever considered that the Cooper f
Soon, Danny finished his painting. Glancing out of the floor-to-ceiling windows, he planned to display it at the main entrance. Seizing the perfect moment, Emilia swiftly concealed her gloomy side and cheerfully appeared before Danny."Grandpa, do you want to put up the painting to welcome her home?" Under the bright sunlight, Emilia's vibrant smile was a healing remedy for all sadness, evoking smiles.Seeing Emilia completely unaffected and showing no signs of unhappiness, Danny felt apologetic toward her."Emilia, don't worry. Even though your sister is coming home, your position in my heart won't change."Emilia pretended not to understand. "Grandpa, what are you saying? Isn't it time to put up the painting? Come on, hand it over to me."With that, Emilia took the painting from the staff, which had already been framed. Agilely climbing up the ladder, she asked the people below, "Quick, check if it's crooked?"Thinking that her happiness was genuine, Danny was so overwhelmed
After welcoming Nadia into the family, Danny solemnly introduced Emilia to her."Deedee, although it might seem inappropriate, I still want to introduce someone to you."With that, Danny pulled Emilia out from behind him."This is your younger sister. Although you two aren't related by blood, during the years you were away, she had kept us company. So, in the future, you two should get along well, understand?"Emilia graciously stepped forward to greet Nadia."Nadia, I never thought we had this kind of relationship!"Without missing a beat, Nadia responded with a light smile, "Yes, who would have thought we had such a connection?"Danny was momentarily stunned, then smiled happily. "Ah, it's all thanks to fate! So you two already know each other."Nadia responded indifferently, "Well, fate only made us meet a few times. That's all.""That's fine!" Emilia took Nadia's arm warmly. "We didn't know before, but now that we do, I'm sure we can become close sisters."Nadia gently re
After everyone left, Nadia was left all by herself. For a moment, she was at a loss for what to do as she stared at the spacious room. Eventually, she decided to make a video call to Lana. When Lana answered, Nadia showed Lana how much Danny cherished her through the video call. "Nadia, you're making me jealous! When will I ever get to have such a big room?" Nadia rolled her eyes. "Stop pulling my leg. With your wealth and assets, you can have almost anything you want!" Lana retorted, "How is that the same? You got the room as a gift, while I would have to get it on my own." Nadia knew Lana was only saying that to make her happy. The love and affection Lana received from Romelius and Mandy were not any less than what Nadia had received from the Watson family. Still, Nadia was pleased after hearing Lana's words. Ever since Vesper's passing, Nadia's life had changed completely. She had lived in fear because of Zeke and Sarah. It went on for so long that Nadia almost forgo
Usually, Danny would quickly try to calm Emilia down whenever she got upset. However, he didn't do that today. Instead, Danny remained in his seat with a pensive look in his eyes. It was as if he did not hear what Emilia just said. Danny didn't try to console Emilia even though she sounded extremely sad and disappointed. Alex grinned. "What are you getting so worked up for? I never said that you were behind it. Or was it really your doing?" Emilia thought her heart might jump out of her chest. She could not help but wonder if Alex had found some sort of evidence. Otherwise, why would he sound so confident? "Alex, that's just baseless accusations!" Alex found the anxious look on Emilia's face rather amusing. Still, he had decided to act cautiously before he could secure solid proof to remove Emilia once and for all. "It's fine if you have nothing to do with it. What are you yelling at me for, then?" Alex smiled mischievously. Emilia was supposed to be the one who was w
No matter what type of living environment she had grown up in, Howard thought that Danny's long-lost granddaughter would be inferior to Emilia in terms of her appearance, educational background, and temperament. Still, Howard decided to offer the lady his greeting for the sake of formality. He did not want to appear discourteous in front of the Watsons. In fact, Howard was supposed to be Deedee's fiancé. He was in a rather awkward position since he had chosen to be with Emilia. Howard might leave the Watsons with a bad impression if he were to show any signs of disregard for Deedee. While Howard was preoccupied with those thoughts, he did not notice the contemptuous smile on Emilia's face. Howard thought he had Emilia in the palm of his hand. But Emilia would never let him push her around. She was going to make him suffer unimaginable pain and regret soon.With her hand around Howard's arm, Emilia led Howard to the third floor of the Watson Residence. The ladies from vario
Emilia was lost in thought for the rest of the evening. Gripped by malicious intent, she was considering different ways to get rid of Nadia for good. Therefore, she didn't notice when the Watsons and Nadia slowly approached her table after greeting the other guests. "Emilia, what's wrong?" Danny came over to Emilia and asked anxiously, "You look so pale, and you're sweating so much. Are you sick?" Emilia snapped out of her reverie. She wiped the sweat off her forehead. "Grandpa, I've been feeling a bit dizzy since this afternoon. I think I've probably caught a cold." "You should hurry and get some rest if you're not feeling well. I can handle things here." Emilia couldn't wait to leave. She was not interested in staying and watching how close and joyful the Watsons were. The only reason she stayed for so long was to make sure no one would start any strange rumors about her. Upon hearing Danny's words, Emilia got to her feet. "In that case, I'll get some rest in my room then
Stunned, Nadia wavered on the brink of a scream before she could even make out a clear image of her assailant.Suddenly, a cold voice, laden with resentment, resonated in her ears."If you feel the urge to scream, be my guest. Let everyone witness the distinguished Ms. Watson engaging in intimate activities in the bathroom."It was Howard!Nadia's tears of humiliation cascaded down her cheeks, her attempts to cry out stifled as Howard covered her mouth, amplifying her helplessness.As Howard aggressively groped her, Nadia winced in pain, tears streaming down her face. She couldn't fathom what had gone wrong, why Howard persistently inflicted such pain on her.Their relationship had long dissipated, yet Howard continued to harm her. What had she done to incur his repeated cruelty?Howard moved with frantic passion, showering fervent kisses upon Nadia's body.Despite being acutely aware that his actions defied both the law and morality, he couldn't suppress the yearning for the u
