Author: Jenny Drake
last update Last Updated: 2023-11-20 22:03:38
Faye lay in bed the whole afternoon, unable to move.

Cedric was initially going to buy her medicine, but since Faye was a doctor herself, she'd told him that there was no medicine more effective than the ones she had.

However, even Faye herself couldn't cure the pain she experienced during this time of the month.

Cedric could only help by massaging her stomach to provide some relief.

Hence, Cedric spent the entire afternoon in the rest area with Faye, massaging her as and when needed. After he brought her hot tea and some painkillers, Faye finally felt a little better. At this point, office hours were already over.

Drenched in sweat, Faye took a shower and was grateful for the cool relief that washed over her. She walked out of the restroom and entered the rest area again.

However, as soon as she came out, a group of people burst into the room.

"Ms. Fischer, Ms. Streep insisted on waiting for you here. She said that she wants to invite you to dinner tonight to express her gra

    "This is good. Don't eat cold food, have it while it's hot. I'll eat your ice cream for you. Have the soup instead."Recently, Freesia introduced new dishes to their lineup, and Faye hadn't had the opportunity to taste them yet. Hence, when Anastasia suggested coming here, Faye didn't refuse. After sitting down, Cedric poured water into Faye's cup, handed her cutleries, and even picked dishes for her as if there were no one else in the room—completely disregarding Anastasia who sat across the table. As for Lincoln, he was completely ignored as well. The sight of Cedric serving Faye like she was a queen was so majestic that he couldn't help but stare in admiration. Cedric, who was usually distant, exuded a cold air and unparalleled dominance most of the time. Yet he became a mere doting husband when in the presence of Faye.Lincoln had always wondered if Faye and Cedric would get into lots of fights since both of them had strong personalities.In this moment, he came to the rea

    Faye took a sip of her water and glanced at Cedric before wordlessly shifting her attention toward Anastasia. She decided that she would just observe the drama in silence. It wasn't that she lacked curiosity about Cynthia. However, she was still in the process of understanding how romantic relationships worked.She still struggled to navigate her relationship with Cedric.That said, she understood that relationships required trust, so when she received the photos and learned about Cynthia, she didn't doubt Cedric for a second. Faye had a pure and honest view of relationships, and she assumed Cedric did as well. They enjoyed each other's company, so Faye didn't see the point in explicitly defining their relationship. After all, that seemed unnecessary when they were already married. In the past, she pursued Anthon because she'd been moved by his actions—she didn't know what love was. For Faye, the notion of mutual care and understanding was challenging, considering her exp

    Knowing that Faye disliked the smell of smoke, Cedric rarely smoked in front of her—but this time, he couldn't resist.It seemed that those around Cedric assumed there was something more between him and Cynthia simply because he never refuted or publicly clarified his relationship with Cynthia. Initially, Frederic intended to match them because Cynthia saved Cedric's life. Although the Libra family couldn't compare to the Shaw family, they were still a reputable family in Jeorgia. If Cedric and Cynthia were together, it would be seen as an ideal match.However, Cedric refused for one simple reason: Cynthia was still young, and marrying someone who had saved you—in the absence of love—wouldn't be settling a debt but rather taking advantage of a situation.Even if Cynthia was willing to marry him, Cedric didn't want to get married at that moment. If he were to marry, it should be based on a certain extent of mutual understanding.Cedric was insistent, and Frederic didn't continue

    When she heard the sound of water running from the restroom, Anatasia gnawed at her lip in frustration. She stood outside with her ear pressed against the door, trying to eavesdrop.She knew that Cedric had turned on the tap on purpose so that others couldn't hear their conversation. She was certain that Cedric was explaining his past relationship with Cynthia to Faye. However, she was curious as to how he would phrase it. Would he say that he only considered Cynthia as his sister? Since Cynthia had already passed away, Cedric could say anything he wanted. However, since Cedric used to care a lot about Cynthia, it seemed unlikely that he would insult the memories of her for Faye's sake. How exactly did he feel about Cynthia? As she was deep in thought, Lincoln stood and went outside to answer a call. Her expression shifted, knowing that this was her chance. Not bothering to eavesdrop any longer, she got up and sent the waiter away before discreetly making her way towar

    Perhaps luck was on Cedric's side as his phone rang just as he started fumbling with his words. He struggled to answer and was deciding how to explain this part of the story to Faye. The nature of his actions in the team was classified, a rule that applied to everyone, including the youngest member who had passed away. Their identities were concealed behind code names, with no knowledge of each other's past lives before joining the team.Most importantly, the individual who had passed away was a young man. If Cedric were to express his sorrow to Faye, he feared she might misconstrue it as an interest in men. Even if he chose to tell her about it, the details surrounding the comrade's identity remained off-limits.The call was from Mason. When Cedric didn't answer, he called again. Having worked for Cedric for years, Mason knew what situation warranted calling multiple times. If he was calling Cedric repeatedly, it had to be about something urgent."You should probably an

    In truth, Anatasia didn't have much to ask. She only insisted on keeping Faye here to make her drink that glass of water and use the utensils she had contaminated earlier. As long as Faye ingested the drug, it would take effect in ten minutes. Anatasia only needed to keep Faye here for ten minutes before proceeding to the next step in her seemingly perfect plan.As for Cedric, she hadn't planned to invite him today in the first place, so his leaving was within Anastasia's expectations. Moreover, the timing of his departure was just right. Anastasia had already prepared four or five questions in advance and asked Faye the questions one by one. These questions were not substantial, just menial concerns about whether her dress would be ready on time and if the quality of the dress could be guaranteed. These were trivial matters—far from important.Lincoln couldn't stand it anymore and frowned. "Anastasia, you've gone through so much trouble to keep Ms. Fischer here just to ask t

    "How exactly should I react, Ms. Streep?" Faye stood and watched as Anastasia panted with her face flushed.Faye smiled. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?""Why are you still fine? What the hell is going on?" Anastasia screamed hysterically. Faye raised an eyebrow. "What makes you say that, Ms. Streep?" She strode forward. "Should we take you to the hospital?""Don't touch me!" Anastasia pushed Faye away before she could touch her, "I put it in your cup and your plate! How … How are you alright?" she screamed in frustration. Faye's expression darkened. "What did you put in?"Anastasia gritted her teeth to prevent herself from losing control. Snapping out of it, she realized she had come close to letting it slip and flushed in anger. "Nonsense. I didn't do anything!"Faye kept her polite smile. "You look unwell, Ms. Streep. Perhaps something was wrong with the dishes! Waiter!" A staff member hurried over. Faye pointed at Anastasia.

    Cedric got into the car and drove straight to the private hospital owned by the Shaw family. Unexpectedly, Astrid was waiting outside the surgery room.Cedric's expression darkened, and his gaze became menacing. "Cedric, you're finally here!" Seeing Cedric, Astrid stood up and rushed towards him, anxiously throwing herself into his arms. "I am so scared …"Cedric stepped aside to avoid her with a gloomy expression. "What are you doing here?"Astrid staggered and almost fell to the ground. After balancing herself, she looked up at Cedric and bit her lip. "I-I went to see Grandpa this morning. Suddenly, he had a heart attack! So I brought him here ..."Astrid was wearing a light beige dress. It was a custom design from Allyson Designs, tailored for her slender figure. The high-quality material wrapped around her graceful figure and the well-fitted large V-neck added a touch of subtle allure. The beige color added a hint of innocence to her appearance. She looked pitiful with mi

    Faye had made arrangements for Jeorgia, while Cedric started an investigation into what the Anderson and Garcia families were doing. Faye knew that this was a trap and that nothing happened by coincidence. However, she didn't know what the culprit's motive was. She didn't have to wait for long because she received a phone call from Tracy later that afternoon. "Faye, you could've come at me if you were upset. Why did you target Grandma? She treated you well, yet you killed her over such trivial matters. Are you even human?"Faye smirked. "Since when do you care about her, Tracy?""What are you talking about? That's our grandmother. You did this, didn't you?""Would you believe me if I said I didn't do it?" Faye sneered. "Don't think that you can do anything you want just because you married someone rich. Faye, don't even dream of getting your murderer of a mother out! I won't let you. You better come back to Jeorgia, or this won't ever be over."With that, Tracy hung up.

    Clark's words only enraged Flora. Eleanor abused Faye when she was a child, which led to Faye getting sick repeatedly. She even allowed Lizzie to go into their home to poison Faye while Flora was at work. Faye suffered through so much hardship at the time and came close to dying. She was already poisoned when she was pregnant with Faye, which meant Faye was born with poison in her body. Though Flora tried her best to counter the poison, Faye was still more frail than ordinary children. Eleanor knew that Faye wasn't Clint's child, so she had always been displeased with her. "Had I known that she's the kind of person who can harm a child, I would never leave Faye with her." Rage filled Flora's eyes. Just as she was about to leave, Eleanor started coughing on the bed. Clark shouted and ran outside to get the doctor. Until the doctor arrived, there were two minutes when Flora was alone with Eleanor. It wasn't until the doctor arrived that Flora found out Clark didn't even

    Lizzie and Clint were momentarily stunned, confused by Tracy's words. "I just received a call from Uncle. He said that Grandma passed away and we need to go home."Clint jolted and collapsed onto the ground. "What?"Tracy smirked. "They can't reach you or Mom, so he called me instead. We need to go home right now.""Ha! So what if she's dead? She doesn't see us as family, so why should we go back?" Lizzie scoffed in contempt. Eleanor disliked her right from the start. If Eleanor didn't stop her from marrying Clint at the very beginning, Flora would have never gotten married to Clint. Though Eleanor helped get rid of Flora in the end, she continued to mistreat Lizzie when she finally married Clint. Eleanor resented Flora for being too strong-willed and disrespectful. However, she looked down on Lizzie for not being as talented as Flora and incapable of bringing more profit to the Brown family. She kept comparing Lizzie to Flora and bossed her around. Lizzie remained patie

    "Damn it! Damn it! It has to be Faye! This has to be her doing. Damn it!" Tracy pushed everything on the table to the ground. Her face twisted viciously with anger. Over the past few days, scandals about her have circulated on the internet. Even information about her age when she started sleeping around and the number of men she slept with for money was released. Evidence of her plotting to steal Anthon away and bring down the Lynch family was released as well. On top of that, there was also information about her working with her mother to chase Flora out and claim Brown Corporation as their own. Every misdeed Tracy had ever committed was exposed before the public's eyes. She became the target of all condemnation. There would be different people gathering near their apartment. As soon as they stepped out of the apartment, they would get beaten. The horrible things that Clint and Lizzie did were later released onto the internet as well.

    Ethan sent the photos and returned to his apartment to wait while drinking. Due to the interview that took place at noon, Ethan's divorce stirred up a storm on Facebook. At the moment, he didn't need to pay to obtain attention. After Tracy declared her innocence, everyone considered Ethan a jerk who heartlessly searched for an excuse to divorce Monica. Ethan waited an hour before releasing the photos. Everyone switched from cursing at him to cursing at him and Tracy. This was not what he expected. He gritted his teeth.

"Tracy, look at what you've done to your boyfriend.""She stole Faye's boyfriend and sent Anthon's family to prison. Now, she's here destroying Mr. Garcia's family. He lost everything because of her. How interesting," Clark chimed in. He still remembered how Tracy insulted him when he tried to ask Ethan for money. He held a grudge. Tracy's expression darkened. She wanted to run, but the reporters had directed their microphones at her.

    Faye learned about the Brown family being taken to the police station the following morning. Just as she got up, she received a call from the police station informing her that her relatives had been detained due to a brawl. She was urged to head over to mediate the fight. Faye smiled. "I'm sorry, but they are not my relatives. Please handle it according to the law." After hanging up, she looked at Cedric, who was waiting for breakfast. She hugged him from behind and said with a smile, "Guess what interesting scene I witnessed last night?"Cedric turned his head to study the triumphant look on her face. He smiled.
