Cedric smiled faintly as he met Faye's eyes. He shot her a flirtatious look and said, "I don't care. If I do get in trouble, then so be it. If the head of the Shaw family can't even protect his own wife from being mistreated, then what use would being in a position of power be?"Cedric then leaned closer to Faye and smiled seductively. "Mrs. Shaw, are you perhaps worried for me?"Faye was rendered speechless for a moment."Mr. Shaw, you're the head of the Shaw family. Why would you need me to worry for you?" Faye forced a smile and chuckled lightly. She implied that she had feigned her worry, not wanting to create any unnecessary trouble for herself. In fact, she was already ready to leave.Cedric followed her as they descended the stairs. Mason, who was standing guard outside, came in to clean up the scene. He then made a trip to the police station.Cedric smiled and said to Faye flirtatiously,"If it were anyone else, I wouldn't need them to worry about me. But you're an except
Before this, Cedric had been suspicious of Faye's identity more than once. All the occurrences and details he had noticed in the past indicated that Faye and Dr. Connor shared countless commonalities. Firstly, Faye's grandmother's maiden name was Connor. Also, when Dr. Connor was performing Flora's surgery, Faye had barged into the operating room. She had only left after it was done and no one had seen Dr. Connor enter or leave the operating room. Nor was it recorded in the surveillance footage.But since Dr. Connor had always been a very mysterious and secretive person, Cedric never thought too much about it.However, Faye also coincidentally showed up at that restaurant. She had also been filmed using the restaurant's strange phone. That was what incited Cedric's suspicions. It was just that Cedric wasn't sure which identity of Faye's was actually hers.It was also because he knew that Faye and Dr. Connor was somehow related, and that was why he left without hesitatio
The next day, Faye went to the hospital to see Flora. As she was saying her goodbyes, she found out that the Brown family had been released. Faye wondered who was so capable as to do that. After all, who dared to release the people she wanted locked up? Right then, Tracy walked in with a delightful expression.Seeing that Faye was there, Tracy smiled and mocked, "Oh, it's Faye! Looks like you've been doing well without us."Faye answered, "Indeed. One's mood becomes so light when one doesn't see the people she hates. Since you're so knowing, Tracy, why did you come over to be a bother?"Tracy's smile froze at Faye's open sarcasm. But a thought struck her and she went back to smiling beatifically. "Just worried that you'd be lonely. Besides, you spent so much effort locking us up. Bet you didn't expect us to get out so easily."Tracy primped her newly permed hair and sent a wave of heavy perfume Faye's way."I'm really sorry for disappointing you, Faye. You tried so hard to g
In the box was a pair of plain but shiny diamond earrings. They had a unique style.Faye had seen these earrings before at a charity auction in Hosritonia. She had attended in disguise and hadn't bid on anything.Her memory was excellent, and she remembered this lot had been purchased by a wealthy man at ten million dollars.The design and quality of the earrings weren't worth the price at all. At most, they were worth two or three million dollars. But the buyer said that he thought they were worth ten million dollars. Thus, at ten million dollars, they were sold.It was because of these haughty words that Faye remembered these earrings.Who would have thought that Cedric was the one who had bought them? Or that they would end up in her hands in the end?Faye smiled at Cedric. "Aren't these earrings at the Christmas auction in Hosritonia? "Did you buy them at ten million dollars that night just to give them to me today, Mr. Shaw?"Cedric smiled roguishly. "When I bought them
Flora held Faye's hand as soon as Faye entered the ward."Baby girl, did those two pick a fight with you again?" She raged, "Do they really think it's all good now that they're released? "Hah! Given Brown Corporation's situation, Clint is in for a bad time. How dare they come and bother you!"Faye hurriedly patted Flora's hand. "Mom, it's alright. Let them flaunt as much as they like. They won't be able to stay arrogant for much longer.""You're right. I've only been sick for several years, yet Brown Corporation is already in a slump thanks to them. How can they not feel ashamed?"As Flora spoke, she turned to Cedric. "Ced, we have a bit of an issue in our family. Those two outside are wicked. "Remember to keep your distance from them. It's best to avoid all contact with them so you won't get into trouble."Cedric nodded. "Don't worry, Mrs. Dunham. I understand.""You don't have much merit, but you're still more decent than Anthon. That playboy can't tell right from wrong."
Faye started packing her things after she returned to her house. As she did so, she investigated the Keane family of Jorn City.It was then that she found out Anthon got to know Roy Keane after the accident the other day.And, coincidentally, Roy was the elderly man Faye rescued.Recalling the incident, Faye rubbed her chin and couldn't hold back a smile.Everyone knew the one who rescued Roy was a woman. But the Keane family had taken Anthon's word that he was Roy's savior. Why was that?Could it be that Anthon had exploited the relationship between him and herself?"Interesting …"Anthon was outrageously shameless. He had definitely mastered the art of being shameless.That would explain why the Keane family helped the Lynch family out. It also explained why they expressed their gratitude toward the Brown family at the same time.Regardless, she never planned to tear the Brown family apart.She had always been set on taking back the shares that belonged to her. Then, she
It wasn't Faye's first time in Jorn City, but she had always been in a hurry on her previous trips. This was the most relaxing trip here that she had.Her luggage was taken care of. They had transport waiting for them upon arrival. Upon reaching their destination, even their rooms were ready.Compared to when she was always on the go, Faye sincerely thought this was the best treatment she had ever received.Indeed, she would live a good life with Cedric.She knew Cedric fared well in Jeorgia, but she didn't expect him to be doing so well in Jorn City, too.Faye couldn't help but look Cedric over. Her guts told her this man before her wasn't as simple as he seemed.Cedric raised his eyebrow. "What? Captivated by my charms?"Faye was rendered speechless.Suddenly, Cedric leaned closer. His tone was flirty as he spoke into her ear, "Many are infatuated with me, but you're the most unabashed."Indignant at being teased, Faye wrapped her arm around his neck. She tilted her chin u
Frederic was in a critical condition. So, Cedric arranged for Faye to stay the night at the villa. He brought her to the Shaw Manor in Jorn City the next morning.Jorn City was the political and economic center of the country. Unlike Jeorgia City, it was stately. And its rich history had left its mark on the city.But as Faye arrived at the manor in the Shaw family's car, she couldn't help but be in awe at the Shaw family's authority.The manor was an expansive, grand estate in the city center. As Jorn City's most affluent family, the Shaw family had a century-long history.They constructed this manor dozens of years ago and slowly perfected it in the following years. Therefore, the entire property was massive and majestic. It was also equipped with pavilions and looked just like a castle.Because of its history, the manor was imposing and gave a solemn vibe. To put it simply, it felt depressing.But it didn't matter much to Faye. She was only here to treat the patient.Sh
