They did not just die in a car accident, the accident has something to do with the Cole's family!” Alex said, and clenched his fist tightly.“How could that be…” Jenny was shocked by what he just said.Jenny has been the adopted daughter of the Cole's family for so many years, even though she had always been dissatisfied with her adoptive parents for loving her half sister, Amelia so much more, she had to admit that her family were very honest and kind hearted.They won't even be able to hurt an ant, not to talk of involving themselves in someone's death, and being the Hall's family that they were very close to… But now that Alex has already said so, wouldn't it be a pity that she takes advantage of the whole situation? She thought, and smirked inwardly. She seemed to be lost in thoughts, and did not know how to speak up.Alex became aware of her uneasiness and gently caressed her hair. “Are you okay, Jenny?"Jenny had already come to a conclusion, Alex, there's something I never wa
There was long silence from the other end of the phone, “It doesn't matter, Alex must be very busy with work, after all it's just between a mother and her daughter, Mum misses you.”“I miss you too mum." Amelia replied with a low voice. After hanging up the call, she bursted into tears. She wasn't asking for too much, whether it was from her parents or from the man that she loved so much, all she ever wanted was love, care, and consideration. Unfortunately, the man she loved was never willing to grant her such little wish. ****Amelia's villa was just on the other side of the town. On her way, she specially bought her dad's favorite drink and snacks, and when she arrived, it was already time for lunch.Eva Cole hadn't seen her daughter for a long time. She felt bad seeing her daughter looking skinnier, and kept asking her to eat more of the dishes she liked.Amelia dared not to give her mother a direct answer to her questions. She was pregnant, but she didn't know how to say it.“I
Amelia sat on the cozy sofa chair hugging her knees while she stared at the double red line indicator. She was somewhat lost in thoughts, and couldn't just think of anything.Subconsciously she stroked her belly, as she felt this unwavering inner uneasiness that kept growing stronger and stronger. Three years of her marriage didn't seem to change anything, his cold heart and stoic demeanor, her single-minded dedication was like a joke on the contrary.“She can't just give in, maybe he'll accept the baby…” she thought. Suddenly, the door sensor chimed, and she raised her head immediately, her gaze on the only man she ever loved. He was in a black and gray suit that wrapped around his broad shoulders and narrow waist. His cold eyes swept over, there was no expression on his indifferently handsome face. Amelia quickly shoved the pregnancy indicator into her purse, and stood up in a panic, “Alex…”He walked slowly into the living room, with his cold aura and interrupted her, “Amelia, l
Amelia opened her eyes to the rhythmic beeping sound of machines in the room, and she could tell from the smell of sterile water that was pungent, making her cringe in discomfort. She unconsciously stroked her abdomen, and tried to sit up. “My baby, what has happened to my baby?" She winced in pain, as she felt a sharp feeling in her lower abdomen, and she gave up trying to sit up.“Lia, please don't move, you have to rest! Emily quickly rushed towards her, making her lie on her back when she saw her struggling to sit up.“How's my baby Emily?" She asked with so much frustration and concern.“Your baby is fine Lia, you don't have to worry. But…” Emily was saying but suddenly paused, making Amelia gaze at her with all attention."You almost had a miscarriage Lia, I'm glad you were sent to the hospital in time” she sighed, and Amelia knew she was only worried about her.“I got scared seeing you lay lifeless on the sofa last night Lia”. Emily added."I'm fine Emily, you don't have to wo
Amelia froze immediately, her blood turning cold. It's Jenny’s voice!Her brain went blank, she could still recognize her voice after all these years.“...Put Alex on the phone!” Her tone was cold, but she tried as much as she could not to tremble. She pinched the hem of her sleeve unconsciously and fiercely. Amelia could tell she was surprised by the way she spoke to her, she paused for a moment before speaking up. “Alex is having his bath, I'll have him call you later!”Amelia was surprised she didn't recognize her voice, and she could swear that if she hung up the call, she could never take the initiative to let Alex call back. Amelia really didn't want to back down, she really had an urgent matter for them to discuss. Fortunately, his cold and impatient voice came across the phone.“What’s wrong? Amelia's breath hitched, it's been a while since she heard his voice. He remained cold and reticent, making her heart tremble uncontrollably.She's calling not just to remind him to
Maurice Hall, slim and slender, with delicate but sinister eyes, dark hair and dark thick eyebrows to match, thin red lips, and always putting on a vague smile.He is Alex's half brother, and they share the same father. He is the second son of the Hall's family, and also an illegitimate son.Unlike Alex who appeared to be always cold and deep, Maurice is always idiosyncratic and unpredictable. Amelia doesn't have anything to do with him, and subconsciously won't want to have anything to do with him. She called his name, and greeted him with a transient gleam. “Maurice” and started to move up the stairs.Just as she took a step upwards, he blocked her way. He leaned lazily against the wall, and smiled slightly on his handsome face. “Amelia, how come my brother is so relieved to let such a beauty like you move around alone? He doesn't know how to cherish his own woman. What a pity!”Amelia frowned and ignored him.“Why don't you leave my brother and follow me instead, be rest assured
Silence filled the room immediately Jenny and Amelia left, leaving the old man and his grandson together.“Do you even realize Amelia is your wife? Why are you in a hurry to bring in that girl? It seems to me like you want to kill me before my time.” Grandpa said, coughing at his every word.“I don't need Amelia anymore, you forced me to marry her, didn't you? Moreover, Jenny has recovered from her illness, and she's back, she has come to stay, this is her family! Alex said, almost yelling while speaking to grandfather. “What has come over you Alex?, don't think I can't still control you!” Grandpa said, nodding his head angrily.“Promise me that no matter what happens, you will not divorce Amelia." Grandpa said, his face turning pale already.“I think you should take care of yourself instead, Grandpa," Alex frowned. “You shameless boy, you are trying to piss me off, aren't you? Why would a reasonable man leave a graceful, beautiful and talented young lady to a vixen? Alex pressed h
So many years ago, in the Cole's family, Eva Cole, Amelia’s mother and the nanny discovered that Jenny Cole slept with the Janitor's son, Benson Drake. The incident brought the both families to chaos, the scene of debauchery almost made the Cole's family and Alex lose their mind. Benson was held captive by the body guards, Jenny Cole was so frightened by the incident that it almost gave Alex a heart attack. She cried and said she was raped by Benson.Benson was sent to prison, and the thought of the incident gave Alex sleepless nights. He did not eat or drink, but sat all day by Jenny's bedside.Grandfather Brian Hall couldn't bear to see his grandson in such a state of mind because of her, so he arranged for Jenny Cole to leave the country for recuperation, in order for his grandson to take his mind off her, and also arranged for Amelia to marry him. Alex was afraid that Jenny Cole will remember that bad memory, so he never mentioned it, but today, she took the initiative to menti

Suddenly Alex was interrupted by his cell phone that rang in the hallway. His bloodthirsty eyes already regained a bit of clarity, he had come back to his senses. He looked at Amelia's flushed face and let her go, throwing her harshly to the couch. Her body was so weak that she didn't have the strength to move her body. She exhaled deeply, and got choked on the air that passed through her throat. She looked at Alex with panic in her eyes, she was thankful that she managed to escape, “he was really going to kill me” she bit her bottom lips. Alex looked away and picked up his phone from the centre table, looking at the name on the screen made him hesitate for a few seconds.“Maurice?What's up with him now?" Ryan mumbled to himself.Even though Maurice was his half brother, he has never had any meaningful discussion with him, or contacted him privately before. “Hello brother,” The man on the other side of the phone spoke up in a low voice, “I just found out the cause of our father's
"Amelia has always loved you, she couldn't stand seeing you and Jenny Cole together, so she asked me to… at first I refused, then she threatened me with my father, so I had no choice.” Benson spoke out with his head faced down.“What evidence do you have?" Alex's gaze was sharp on him. Benson laughed bitterly, and struggled to sit up from the floor. “Mr Hall, if there was evidence, do you think I would be willing to take up the rape charge and go to jail? Alex stamped his feet on the ground and got up angrily. “If you dare to have half a false word in all you said, I'll make your life worse than death." "Ahhhh!” Benson let out a loud scream that echoed the room. He shouted in pain, “Mr Hall, I would never dare to lie to you… Alex's facial expression was gloomy and terrifying, he kicked him over and turned away, walking out of the door.Amelia was looking for death! The rumble of his car engine scared the passersby to make way, his speed was almost 120mph, the man's deep pond eye
