At ten in the morning, Clarice was walking in the garden. The winter sun's light shone on people's bodies, warming them. After walking for a bit, the maid came out of the house. "Madam, let's go back inside; it's cold out here." "I need to walk for 10 minutes; that's what the doctor said. I'm moving more each day, and it's good for the future delivery," Clarice said and noticed the maid's expression was a bit strange, so she asked again, "What's wrong? Is my mother-in-law in a bad mood again?" "Mr. Murray just called and said he'll be home by noon," the maid spoke with a sigh. "Isn't that a good thing? Filippo is willing to come home; wasn't that the result Gretta was hoping for the most?" "Did you not watch the news? The issue of Mr. and Miss Agatt had already been exposed by reporters. Madame's phone calls exploded this morning." The maid's expression was heavy as she said, "How can someone who cares so much about his wife's face endure this? The elder also called and asked eve
"However, Sabrina has already lost her rationality, so she can do anything. She's not well, and she's definitely not going to let the two of us live in peace. Clarice, can you help your mother decide whether she should divorce him?""And do you happen to love? I never liked your marriage, so I don't know why you come to ask me what to do or not! This time, Clarice had completely seen through her mother, this extremely selfish woman. In her world, the person she loved the most was herself, and in her eyes, a husband wasn't as important as money.Julia spoke a few more words on the phone before hanging up.Clarice was almost certain that, this time, Julia's marriage would definitely end, but that had nothing to do with her. She didn't want to worry about it, and she didn't want to be bothered by it.It was 8 p.m., and everyone was at the Murray family's house to talk to the elder, the boys' grandfather. With all of the Murray family present, the atmosphere in the hall was extremely depr
"This isn't the outcome you always wanted, is it? I'll help you. Since you're already with Miss Agatti, I'll let you stay with her. You should marry her into your family." Filippo was about to ask him to stay when Nicholas suddenly said to his mother."Olivia, turn on the television." His words caused everyone's expressions to change.When Olivia heard him, she gave a significant look to the servant next to her, who immediately turned on the living room TV and handed the remote control to Nicholas.Nicholas changed the channel twice and then stopped on the live broadcast of the entertainment channel. The image showed Samantha, with a downcast face, accompanied by her father Eric, giving a press conference.When Gretta saw this scene, she couldn't take it anymore. She pushed Filippo away and straightened up."This is the fate of us, husband and wife. Tomorrow, go to the lawyer and sign your name; we'll have nothing to do with each other." After she finished speaking, she didn't wait fo
"Lady, you're back!" Seeing that she had returned, the maid immediately welcomed her. "Where is Edward?""Hospital." Clarice tossed out those words and began to climb the stairs. At this moment, her heart was very tired. Her whole body was filled with an unprecedented exhaustion, and Edward said that if he died, the child in her stomach wouldn't be able to live.What did that mean, she couldn't understand.In the middle of the night, she was sleeping in her bed when suddenly there was a knock on the door. She got up and was about to open the door when she saw someone open the door and enter—a familiar figure. She was about to speak when the figure approached her and lifted her from the bed."Nicholas, why are you here?" She asked, and Nicholas's face was hidden in the shadows, revealing a sinister smile."Of course, I'm here to find you. Edward is going to die, Filippo's reputation is in ruins, Gretta left the Murray Family, now, only you and the child in the second house are still fi
"You know why Mr. Murray was willing to sell 10% of his shares to Mr. Longhini?" Bento asked, and Clarice quickly thought of a response."Wasn't it to let John Longhini deal with Nicholas?" Bento chuckled, shaking his head."Of course not, Mrs. Murray. The company is the property of the Murray family. Do you really think he would destroy his own property to defeat Nicholas?""Then why didn't he deny it when I asked him?""And what if he denies it? You've already decided in your heart what kind of person he is. You probably always thought Mr. Murray married you to deal with Nicholas.""And wasn't he?" Clarice was confused. Had she been wrong all this time?"It was true in the beginning, but then..." Bento paused before continuing. "Do you really not feel Mr. Murray's feelings for you?" Clarice's heart was in complete chaos.What does that mean? Was Edward interested in her?"There was a time when he had given up on getting a new heart until he found out about your existence. In the beg
Clarice never thought that Edward would actually leave everything he had for her, even though she always misunderstood him. These last few days must have been sad for him. Perhaps that was the reason he always avoided her during this period."I can't accept these things; I'm not qualified..." If she hadn't suspected him and told Nicholas that he was in contact with her, things might not have unfolded this way.In the end, she had wronged him."You're the woman Mr. Murray loves; you have the right to inherit everything from him," Bento spoke in a serious tone."Inherit?" When Clarice heard those two words, she felt confused in her heart. Why inherit? Edward is still alive!"Some of these industries are foreign properties. Mr. Murray said that if you want to safely give birth to your child, you should go abroad. Don't you have a brother in Europe? Mr. Murray has a house there, and you can go there; I've already prepared a plane ticket for you. If you want, you can leave tomorrow afterno
"I won't make the same mistake again. Edward never intended to hurt you, so please let him go, just treat it as if I'm begging, okay?" Clarice's voice trembled a bit. In her heart, she wasn't sure if Nicholas would agree to her plea.She didn't know why, but despite being so close to him and looking at him, he didn't seem familiar at all; on the contrary, it felt a bit strange."Beg? What position are you taking? Edward's wife?" The expression in Nicholas's eyes was full of mockery. If Clarice hadn't come to beg him, maybe he would have shown mercy. But now that she had come, he really had to reconsider his plans."No... No... I..." Clarice started to panic; what position should she take to beg him? Nicholas's earlier questioning proved that he cared a lot about her Murray wife status."Clarice, you really aren't very smart," Nicholas said indifferently."I know that if I were smart enough, I wouldn't have insisted on marrying you. If I were smart enough, I should have understood that
London - EuropeIn the high-class suite of a 5-star hotel, Clarice was peacefully sleeping in bed when a noise came from outside the door, causing her to open her eyes and get out of bed. Opening the door, she saw her brother Rob calling her for lunch."Sis, you're awake. Did you rest well?" Seeing that Clarice had awakened, Robert poured a glass of fruit juice and handed it to her."I rested well; it's the first time I've been on a plane for so long, so it's quite challenging. Why did you order so much food? It's just the two of us!" Clarice took the juice and took a couple of sips."Not two, but three." Robert pointed to her belly and said, "Come quickly and eat. In the afternoon, I'll take you to the hospital for a maternity checkup.""Aren't all appointments for exams here pre-scheduled?" Although Clarice had never been to Europe before, during the flight here, out of boredom, she read some introductions about this country."Of course, a normal person should make an appointment, b
