His change had provoked Lisa."What do you mean?" She stared at him as her voice became sharper. She pointed at the bed where Everly lied and said, "Don't tell me that you really did all that for her sake!"Carson remained silent but instead stared down at her condescendingly, his eyes narrowing."She tortured Oliver! She killed my sister! She is a heinous murderer!" Lisa took a step closer as her eyes reddened. "How could you? You promised that you would make it right by us. Is this how you do it?"Carson did not respond and frowned as he looked at Everly."Carson Baxter!" Unable to bear it any longer and shouted, "Answer me! I've had enough!"Her chest fluctuated as she pointed at Everly and yelled, "Ever since we received news that she broke out of prison, my parents have been waiting for you to bring justice to us; but all these days have passed, and what have you done? Do you know what my parents call me at home? They called me a traitor for helping someone who killed my own

What was he doing?Everly was supposed to remain in prison for ten years as a punishment for what she had done, but she refused to reflect upon herself and faked death to escape. He should have caught her and sent her back as soon as he noticed it...but he had not.Why had he not? What had she done to him?His decisiveness had turned into hesitation, to the point that he even thought of forgetting what had happened in the past as though that incident had never happened.How could he forget that she killed Layla? What had happened to him?He drove even faster, and the highway was filled with furious honking from other cars, but the only thing Carson heard was Lisa's voice confronting him."Is this all simply because she was once your sister?"His sister...He stepped on the brake abruptly, and the deafening screech of the car echoed throughout the area.He could not shake the images of what he dreamt of. What was Everly to him?...By the time Everly woke up, it was already a

Everly took a deep breath and walked into the hospital until she arrived at Granny Preston's room. She pushed the door open but did not see her anywhere.What?!Where was she?!Fear struck her, and the overwhelming fear had her heart throbbing. She rushed out anxiously and asked the people she saw on the way, "Do you know where the patient from this room is?""Not sure. You should ask the doctors." The family members of other patients looked at her cautiously.Coming to realization, Everly turned immediately and ran outside.Baam!She fell hard and the stitches of her wound came undone, sending sharp pain down her body. With no time to look at her wound, she crawled up and hurried to the nurse station.Just as she was about to say something, the nurse looked up and spotted her. "Hey! You are the family of the patient from bed number 3! Jesus, where have you been all this time? We couldn't reach you at all!"A horrible premonition overwhelmed Everly, and she began to panic. She

It seemed like she had returned to that day again. She kept pleading with a sore throat, but nothing could be done. The memory had overtaken her, choking her into madness. Molly had no idea what was going on… If she had not gone to jail, Bonnie Preston would not have lost her life for her! If she had made it clear to Molly at the beginning, she would not have been sick on a snowy day while waiting for her, and her condition would not get worse! If she had earned her money and stayed by Molly's side, it would not have come to this! It was because of her. Everything was because of her! She was thinking of other people even before she came here! She gave herself a hard slap. Sock! Sock! Sock! Her cheeks were red and swollen, blood dripping from her lips… She crouched outside the door of the emergency room, crying so hoarsely that people, who were coming and going, looked at her as if she was crazy. Some time passed, the emergency room door opened once again, and se

Later, The butler got the news that Miss Pettis had left the hospital and gone somewhere. He hurried over to tell Carson, but he ignored it. In the past, although he pretended not to care, he was still very concerned about Ms. Pettis! Was it because of that piece of information? That is not true? If he were not worried about Miss Pettis, why was he drinking alone here? He had worked here at the Baxter residence since he was young, and Carson had grown up under his care. This was the first time he had ever seen him look like this, what was going on? He really did not understand. As he was thinking, the butler's mobile phone suddenly vibrated. He glanced at Carson and then went to answer it. "Repeat it?" "Okay I got it, look after her." The butler hurried back to Carson's side and said, "Sir, word has come from the gatekeeper. Ms. Pettis is kneeling alone at the door, do you want to come and see her?" However, he had not answered. He just poured another glass of win

Everly did not want to figure out what he was thinking. She had no other choice. Just now, the hospital called; granny is getting worse and worse and needs to be operated on immediately… There was nothing more she could do. If she could have sold herself for money, she would have done so willingly, but she was not even qualified to be sold. All she could do was beg him. She crawled in front of his feet once more, grabbed his trousers once more, and said anxiously, "I really need the money urgently, can you lend me first…" He pushed her away and shouted, "Everly Pettis, who do you think you are! Saying a few words and asking me to give you money, who am I to you!" "Carson, Carson, I'm really in a rush!" She climbed up and cried as she flung herself over to hug his legs. "Please, please lend it to me, I'll pay it back! I will definitely give back to you…" "How would you pay it back!" He looked at her with red eyes, looking at her crying miserably, hatred rising in his heart.

"For him again!" His angry roar echoed throughout the entire yard. His eyes were red, and he could not distinguish what he was feeling now! What she once refused to admit no matter what, even when she was in jail. She would rather jump from the first floor, to kneel down in front of him for eighty thousand dollars, for that man! He had no idea what was so great about that man! He wanted to open her head and see what the hell she was thinking! "Brother…" "Don't call me brother!" Everything around him seemed to explode into pieces. He finally remembered since she had not called him brother. It was the first time he had brought his girlfriend along, and at that time, she asked him, "Brother Carson, who is she?" He answered that it was his girlfriend. Her girlfriend greeted her with a smile, "Everly is such a cute girl. I've heard Carson mention you many times, and now I finally meet you in person today! I'm super fond of you too!" What that woman looked like he had fo

She wanted to cry, but her tears had dried up. She opened her mouth, but not a sound came out. It seemed that her whole world, at that moment, collapsed. In the end, there was nothing left. She took a long time to stand up, staggered, and turned to leave there. … The hail stopped some time ago. Flakes of white snow fell and covered the whole courtyard. Carson sat alone beside the table, all the bottles of wine on the table were already empty. The fire burning in his heart had not been extinguished, and even tended to grow stronger. All the lights in the house had been turned on and he looked at the empty house. Four years had passed, and there had never been another woman by his side. All the people said that he loved Layla. He was alone for many years because of Layla's death. He even thought so too. He loved Layla. That was what he kept telling himself. However, when he looked at this house, what appeared before him was the figure of Everly. She was once her

Everly wondered, 'Why does he look so pitiful? Is he going to ask me to be with me as he did before?'Meanwhile, Carson moved his eyes from her to the sunset on the horizon and said, "It's late."She looked across at the sea and the sky. The glorious declining sun gilded the sky.The salty sea wind swept over them.They gazed at the sunset until the fish suddenly struggled and startled Everly.It had been quietly staying in her hand for a while. She had forgotten that she was holding the fish. Thus, she subconsciously let go of the fish and shook Carson's hands off.The fish flopped back into the water and waved its tail to flee away."Oh, no. The fish has escaped. Dad, hurry up and catch it!" Oliver yelled. He had been squatting on the side so as not to disturb his parents. Carson and Oliver then chased after the fish.Everly slowly got up and stood there. The father and the son in white T-shirts were surrounding the big puddle. Everly felt strange while watching them.She wa

She was a little embarrassed. After all, they hadn't been so close to each other for a long time. She felt a bit uncomfortable.So, she found a random topic. "Oliver still hasn't come back?""Maybe he couldn't find the bucket," he said, his chest vibrating. Not knowing how to pick up the conversation, she just looked at him. "Put the fish down," he said again after about three seconds. "But it will slip away," she blurted out. He paused, nodded, and hummed.Actually, she could place it somewhere dry rather than in the water... Then it couldn't slip away...She found herself so stupid. But she couldn't take back her words...She wondered, bit the bullet, and awkwardly held the fish. Should she say anything to defuse the awkward situation?She thought for a moment and asked, "What's your plan? I mean your career.""I haven't laid it out yet," he replied frankly. "I've been working for too long, and it's time to take a break. In the past, I didn't have time to hang

Everly immediately put the crab into the small bucket.At this time, the bucket was filled with many crabs. Oliver looked inside and wore a bright smile."Wow! We got a lot of crabs today! My bucket is almost full!" Oliver said and looked back. When he saw the bucket in his dad's hand, Oliver took it and dumped all the crabs inside his own bucket into it. He then pushed it to Everly and said, "Wow. Aunt Violet caught so many crabs today. You are awesome!"Everly froze. She looked at Oliver's smiling face and understood what he meant.Oliver wanted her to take all the credit for catching those crabs."Oliver...""Aunt Violet! Look over there. There are bubbles coming out of that small hole. Let's go over there. There must be something in there!" As he said, Oliver carried his bucket and a small shovel and trotted over in his slippers. He ran to the hole and exclaimed, "Aunt Violet, come on! It is a big fish!""Go ahead. He likes playing with you," Carson said to Everly when she w
Imprisoned Wife of Mr. Baxter Chapter 465 The Tenderness in Carson's Eyes
"How do you know if they have contact in private?" The man asked as their car was waiting for a green light. The man's consecutive retorts annoyed Lisa. She looked in the rearview mirror at the man with chill eyes. "What do you mean? Are you trying to deliberately piss me off?" "No." The man replied. Then he paused for a few seconds and changed the subject. "So what are you going to do next?" 'Let Everly crash down to the hell!' During these days all their tactics were covert. They only took some subtle moves to test Carson, to see what was in Carson's mind. Now that Lisa had learned about it, then the next step she was up to was to put Everly through hell! "What's going on with Violet's studio now?" Lisa asked. "According to the information we got, it won't be long before Violet Studio and Baxter Group's collaboration on 'The Angel' is finished." The man replied. Before Lisa was about to respond, suddenly, her phone vibrated. Buzz--Lisa picked up her phone to check t

Everly, Carson, and Oliver were playing on the beach. Meanwhile, Lisa came out of her villa to a car and talked to someone on the phone.She got into the passenger seat, smiled at the man in the driver's seat, and said, "I've just heard that the opposition faction of the Baxter Group changed their minds. They want to get Carson back."The man started the car without speaking. Lisa made up her face, smiled contentedly while looking into the mirror at her delicate figures, and continued, "I knew that the Baxter Group couldn't do well without Carson and that they would give in!"The car's tires squealed.The man suddenly braked."What are you doing?" Lisa growled at the man with a frown, hurriedly grabbing something to steady herself."Lisa, what the hell do you want?" the man said resignedly, "didn't you say that you just wanted to help your family out of trouble? I don't understand what you're thinking. Do you love Carson? Are you proud of him?""What's the problem with this?"

While waving at her, Oliver murmured and walked in with Carson.Everly nodded with a smile. With the clothes in her hand, she got into the car and changed her clothes.The clothes were very simple, which were just a big white T-shirt and a pair of casual shorts. Looking at the clothes, she couldn't help wondering what Carson and Oliver would wear.She walked out, with her mind wandering. She saw Carson and Oliver not far away, both of whom were wearing a white vest and a pair of shorts to their knees. The color and style of their clothes were the same, except for the size.They two seemed to be talking about something, with buckets in their hands. Carson held a big bucket while Oliver held a small one. There was another bucket on the ground, obviously prepared for Everly.Noticing her coming, Oliver turned around and looked at her. "Aunt Violet!"Carson also looked up at her.Her heart was thumping faster inexplicably.‘He seems to be closer to me these days.’Maybe it was bec

The shopkeeper felt embarrassed. He looked at Oliver and replied, "What? I couldn’t do that. Don’t talk nonsense."Oliver pouted and didn’t say anything. Carson patted his head and then looked at the shopkeeper.The shopkeeper already understood his meaning. So then he handed three sets of clothes to Everly and Carson, "You can rinse over there.""Thank you." Everly nodded, then they went there together.After lifting the curtain of the outdoor shower, Carson and Oliver both frowned slightly and looked at her at the same time.Everly was a little confused, so she asked, "What’s wrong?""You can change the clothes in the car." Carson opened his mouth.Oliver nodded and explained, "Right, Aunt Violet. This place has some leaks. It’s okay for me and dad, but it's not okay for you, and there’s no mud on you. It's just me falling into the mud puddle."Everly looked at him and then at Oliver, understanding what they meant.She nodded and pinched Oliver's face with a smile, "Okay,
Imprisoned Wife of Mr. Baxter Chapter 461 A Human Shape was Still There
She immediately quickened her pace to rush over and snatched Oliver from Carson's hand."Hmm..."Before Oliver jumped into her arms and complained to her, Carson's cold voice sounded, "Stop. You're covered in mud."Oliver stopped immediately, looking down at himself, then he glared at Carson. Just a few seconds later, he sat down on a small rock and pointed to the big mud puddle beside him. "Aunt Violet, I just fell into it."Everly glanced in the direction that Oliver pointed to. There was indeed a mud puddle and a human shape was still there. Oliver's father just wiped his face. Otherwise, he could not be recognized.Looking at him sitting on that small rock and his aggrieved look, Everly thought he was so cute and couldn’t help laughing out loud, "Puff..."Hearing her laugh, Oliver turned his head. Everly immediately tried to hold back her laughter, but she failed."Ah! Aunt Violet, you laughed!” Oliver directly came down from the rock, sat in the mud, and childishly showed

Yet the meeting room was quiet. No one spoke.If there had been a way to settle the matter, they would have dealt with it many days ago.And if they gave advice but failed in the end, they might have to take the blame."Why do you all keep silent? Didn't you have a lot of ideas at the very beginning?" the leader roared, slapping the table.However, no one answered.After a minute, someone trembled and said, "Then ... shall we find Carson and make him the president again?""What are you talking about?" The leader was even angrier.But another person said, "I think he's right. The share price is falling. We have less and less money. If it goes on like this, none of us can stand it. We'd better get Carson back... When he managed the company, the share price was rising.""You're looking down on yourself and flattering Carson!" the leader growled, "and the share price is falling. Their losses must be bigger than ours. They should be the most anxious!""But..." the person who had be
