Exiting Flora's room, Faye saw Cedric and Victor, who had been waiting outside. They both had stern looks on their faces, and Victor looked like he had been crying. Faye guessed that they heard the conversation and tapped Victor on the shoulder. She sighed. "Mr. Victor, I don't care what happened in the past between you and my mother, but I'm sure you know what to do next."Had she not listened to what Flora said, she would never know how much Flora suffered in the past. Though she was fooled because she was too naïve, she was just a young, simple girl. Her brilliance was her sin. "Faye …" Victor ignored her words and grabbed her hand. Faye frowned and instinctively tried to shake him off. However, his strength was overpowering, and she couldn't get away. Her expression darkened, and she glanced at Cedric, hoping he would say something. However, Cedric simply observed them with a stern expression and didn't say a thing. Cedric was supposed to get jealous, yet he didn't
Faye left Flora's room and returned to her own room with Cedric. Worried that Flora's story might affect Faye's mood, Cedric stayed and chatted with her. Only when he was sure that Faye was fine did he go back to work. Faye sat on the balcony of her room and gazed at the beautiful scenery outside. However, her mind was still pondering over her mother's words.Since the events in the past were orchestrated by Selena and her backers, why couldn't Victor and the Reed family completely deal with Selena back then? Who were the people behind Selena? There was also a political figure involved. Since he didn't succeed in defiling Flora that night and ended up beaten by Victor, his deal with Selena would be voided. Therefore, this politician couldn't be the mastermind.Faye felt that this matter was related to the Anderson family. The events over 20 years ago didn't seem to have much to do with Diana. In this story, Diana only played the role of Flora's love rival. However, Faye
In the few days she spent in Jeorgia, Faye had been busy caring for Flora. Flora had gotten much better, while Victor spent most of his time around Flora. When he learnt that Faye was his daughter, he practically doted on her every move. Faye didn't think much of the truth concerning her birth. She had already proven that Victor was her father. On the day that she learned the truth, she took a strand of Victor's hair and had Alice run a paternity test. The results were released earlier today, proving that Victor was her father. She saw that coming and only ran the test to make sure she didn't refer to someone as her father recklessly. Still, she didn't intend to give Victor any special treatment, even if he was her father. She still needed to cure him. "Mr. Victor, you haven't exercised enough today. Stop wandering in the house and get out more."After dinner, Victor fawned over Flora once again. Observing the impatient look on Flora's face, Faye smiled and invit
Watching the eager anticipation in the eyes of the trio, Faye's smile deepened. She tilted her head and said, "If I were to give this money, it would be to the doctor.""To the doctor?" Clark was immediately stunned and exclaimed, "What do you need the doctor for?"Mandy glared at him and smiled. "Since it's for treating your aunt's illness, the money is obviously going to be paid to the doctors. Look, your aunt urgently needs funds for the surgery. Since you have so much money, hurry up and give it to us. We'll go to the hospital to pay for her surgery and subsequent treatment."Eleanor nodded. "That's right. If you have any conscience left, bring the money quickly. Otherwise, it will be your fault if we don't head back in time and your aunt dies."A normal person would probably be infuriated for being accused of such a severe crime. However, Faye simply laughed.She took a card from her pocket and toyed with it in front of them. "There's 300 thousand dollars in this card. I su
Where's the money?" Clark extended his hand at Faye as soon as he came in. Faye stood and stared casually at him, along with Eleanor and Mandy. "What money?" She shrugged.Eleanor immediately shouted in frustration, "Drop the act, Faye. Don't forget that you promised to give 300 thousand dollars to help your aunt.""300 thousand?" Sophia's eyes widened in shock, and she stared at Faye in disbelief. Gloria, too, was shocked. "Mom, what are you talking about?""She was the one who said she will pay!" Eleanor looked smugly at Faye. "Ask her."Faye smiled. "Yes, I promised to pay for Aunt Gloria's medical fee. Be it 300 thousand or 3 million, I will pay."Faye's generosity had shocked everyone in the room. Gloria shook her head. "Nonsense, Faye. Don't do that. The doctors had already said that I'm beyond saving. This is just a waste of money. Don't do it …""That's right." Mandy agreed. Clark raised his chin. "That's right, your aunt is about to die. It's a waste to spend s
"Faye …"When Faye stepped out of Dr. Ziegler's office, Sophia was waiting for her in the corridor. "I'm sorry, Faye. I didn't mean to keep this a secret from you. My mom …" Sophia said with tears in her eyes. Faye shook her head. "It's fine. I'm sure it's been rough for you as well.""I'm okay, but my mom … She is still so young. She has worked so hard for my sake, and I haven't even had the chance to repay her before she fell sick …"She then burst out in tears. Faye wasn't good at comforting people and sighed. She tapped Sophia on the shoulder. "Don't worry. Just focus on your studies. Your mom will be fine.""Really?" Sophia stared at Faye in disbelief. "But the doctors said that the cancerous cells are out of control, and they can't operate on her …"Faye chuckled. "Maybe others can't, but Faye Connor can definitely do it."Sophia's eyes lit up. "Faye Connor? Really? Faye, you are having Dr. Connor here to operate on Mom?"Faye nodded. "Yeah, the medicine I gave your
As soon as Faye got into the car, she received a call from Cedric asking where she had been. Cedric was busy with work and panicked when he couldn't find Faye after he was done. When Faye explained that her aunt was in the hospital, he sighed in relief. "Drive safe. Let's talk when you get home," Cedric said before heading downstairs.As soon as he went downstairs, he saw Victor walking around in the yard, struggling with each step. He had ignored his health for far too long, and even without the poison, he was plagued by illness to the point that he could barely walk. He had spent most of his time in a wheelchair or in bed in the past few years and could only stand up when he felt better. At the moment, he was training to get better. "Mr. Victor, you are doing great. Take two more steps. You can do it. Believe in yourself! Wow, the time you spent exercising has doubled! Mr. Victor, I knew you could do this," Ryder coaxed. Victor's expression darkened slightly. "Do I l
The solemn atmosphere in the villa became lively as Lincoln and Lucy bickered. The two troublemakers occasionally bantered and argued, creating a harmonious atmosphere, surprisingly.Clearly, Lincoln couldn't win against Lucy.Lucy had a smart mouth. Whether it was bantering with friends at school in the past or now, she had never lost.Lincoln came to visit Layla, only to end up frustrated because of Lucy. In the end, he had to leave the room. He couldn't get mad when Layla was there, making it harder for him.Cedric was sitting in the living room, working on a tablet and drinking tea. Upon seeing him, Lincoln couldn't help but complain. "Ced, do you think that woman did it on purpose? I swear, something is wrong. "Not only do I run into her everywhere, but she also bothers me all the time. What happened that night wasn't just my fault. She barged in and forced herself on me—"Halfway through, Lincoln silenced himself. He never liked stirring up trouble, especially when i
