Jeremiah and Rory were responsible for Blair's demise, and she wanted to seek ruthless revenge against them, and she was indeed doing so.However, it did not necessarily mean killing them.Making them suffer was the best form of revenge.No matter how she sought revenge against them, she would not involve the child; it was her business.Mable did not want Spike to grow up in hatred, let alone have his hands tainted with filth.Spike nodded. "Yeah, Mommy, I understand."Spike stayed with his mommy in the room, watching her eat and finish the cake, then left.In the afternoon, the bodyguard informed Mable that Jeremiah wanted to see her.Mable declined.After last night's drama, she made Jeremiah watch "Eugenie" perish at sea. He wanted to see her again, to verify if Eugenie was genuinely dead.Mable did not want to give him hope; naturally, she would not meet him!In the afternoon, Mable went to Blair's study.This was the first time Mable had set foot in his study since Bla
Boom!Lightning flashed on a stormy autumn night, thunder roared, and the wind howled. A black sedan slowly approached Royal View Villa and stopped at the entrance.At this critical moment, the villa's security guards were on high alert and did not take any chances. As soon as they spotted a suspicious vehicle, they became vigilant.The captain of the guards walked out holding an umbrella, intending to inquire about the occupants of the car, but before he could speak, he noticed the car's back window lowering.A lightning bolt pierced the night sky.In the flash of light, the captain saw the face of the man sitting in the back seat."Boom!"Thunder rumbled as if it would tear a hole in the night sky.The captain stood stunned, unable to believe his eyes, staring wide-eyed at the man in the car. He opened his mouth to call for help but was silenced by a glance from the man."Captain, what's wrong?" Another guard at the gate shouted, seeing the captain frozen by the car.
Mable nestled in the man's arms, rubbing against his chest like a kitten. Her voice was tinged with tears and was full of grievances. "Blair, I miss you so much. Please don't leave me again."The man caressed Mable's flushed cheeks, tenderly wiping away the tears at the corners of her eyes. He glanced at the empty wine bottles on the floor, furrowing his brows. "Have you been drinking?"Mable burped lightly. "Just a little.""Drinking so much isn't good for you.""But I feel awful."Mable grabbed the man's slightly cool hand, tears falling like beads off a broken string. "They all lied to me. They said you were dead. They even lied to me, saying you never loved me. How could they?"The more Mable cried, the sadder she felt, almost unable to catch her breath. "You lied to me, too. You promised to always be with me. But you left me. You liar."The man gazed at the woman in his arms, his brows furrowed with heartache. "Mabes, I'm sorry.""I don’t want your apology. You're not al
The hospital room was unusually quiet."Sorry for worrying you all."Blair's weak voice broke the silence.He lay on the hospital bed, his face devoid of any color, appearing so weak as if he could faint at any moment.Solomon stood by the bedside, sighed, and said, "I know you're worried about Mable, but you can't neglect your health like this. You've just woken up, and your body hasn't stabilized yet. What if something happens when you leave the hospital so recklessly?"Blair lowered his gaze. "I just wanted to make sure Mabes is okay."As soon as he woke up, Amos told him that Mable had regained all her memories.However, she had to face the fact of his "death." How heartbroken she must be.Blair could not stop worrying about her. So, he quietly took a taxi back to Royal View Villa when the doctors and Amos were away temporarily.Thankfully, he returned tonight. Otherwise, she would indeed spend the whole night drinking alone in the study.During these few days of unconsci
Royal View Villa.The cold weather awakened Mable.She sat in her bed, still clutching Blair's shirt. The blanket was on the floor."Ugh."Mable pinched her brows, feeling dizzy and throbbing pain in her head as if it was about to split open.She seemed to have taken out all the excellent wine from Blair's liquor cabinet last night and drank quite a bit.No wonder her head hurt so much.Mable recalled drinking in Blair's study last night, and a sudden image flashed in her mind as she pondered.Blair.She seemed to have seen Blair!Mable flipped out of bed abruptly, too rushed to even put on her shoes, and stumbled out of the bedroom."Blair!"Mable rushed into the study only to see a servant operating a floor cleaning machine, tidying up the carpet.Upon seeing Mable, the servant quickly spoke, "Madam, you're awake."Mable looked at the red wine stains on the carpet. Yes, she remembered. Last night, she had accidentally spilled red wine on the carpet.Then, she saw Blair
After the drunken dream, Mable spaced out listlessly in her bedroom for the entire morning.When she finally adjusted her emotions and walked out of the bedroom, it was already afternoon.Tracey led Mable to the dining hall. “Mabes, you haven’t eaten anything all day. Have something to eat.”Mable had no appetite and casually took a few bites. She suddenly remembered something and asked, “Tracey, you left in a hurry after getting a call from Amos yesterday. Did something happen?”Tracey’s heart clenched, not expecting Mable to suddenly ask that question, and she quickly said, “Oh, that... It was just some company stuff. I-It’s already taken care of. You don’t have to worry, Mabes.”Mable raised her brows. She had known Tracey for many years and understood her little mannerisms. Tracey stammered and averted her eyes whenever she lied.It was clear that Tracey was hiding something from her.“Tell Amos to inform me if there’s any issue with the company that can’t be resolved. I’ll
Amos was silent for two seconds before finally saying, “Very well. We’ll go together tomorrow.”“Good. Oh, right…”Mable suddenly remembered something and asked, “Tracey left in a hurry after receiving your call yesterday. Did something happen?”“Oh... It was nothing. I just... needed help finding something. It was quite urgent, so I called Tracey...”Mable raised her brows. The story did not match up with Tracey’s.They were definitely hiding something from her.However, Mable did not expose him and simply responded before ending the call.That evening, she received a message from Amos informing her that the flight was booked and they would depart at ten in the morning.Before heading to Fasier, Mable decided to check on Jeremiah again.Just as she walked out of the living room, she heard a commotion coming from the backyard.She hurried over. “What happened?”Several bodyguards rushed out from the basement. “Madam, Jeremiah escaped!”“Escaped?”He was locked up in the ba
In a hotel in Richworth, Jeremiah sat on the sofa with a laptop, typing furiously on the keyboard. He was searching the waters near Richworth.Based on the video Mable showed him that night, Eugenie should have been in the sea near Richworth.Jeremiah searched the news in the area for the past two days, hoping to find information about anyone missing at sea.After searching for a while, he could not find anything.The assistant kept glancing at the time. Finally, he could not wait any longer and urged, “Young Master, we have to go, or we’ll miss the plane.”They were not completely safe yet and had to leave as soon as possible.It would be disastrous if Mable’s people found them.Jeremiah clenched his jaw, continuing to search for Eugenie’s whereabouts as if he had not heard the assistant’s words.Nothing.Still nothing...Nothing at all...He had checked every possible place but still could not find any information about her whereabouts.Jeremiah became increasingly anxiou
“Arthur proposed to Tracey?!”In the afternoon, Tracey posted several photos of her and Arthur in a hot air balloon. In one of the photos, she held a bouquet with a dazzling ring on her ring finger.[Yes, I do.]That was the caption.Blair hugged Mable and nodded with a smile. “Yeah, Arthur proposed to her today. Trace called to say they’ll prepare for the wedding after they return from their trip.”“That’s great!”Mable was sincerely happy for Tracey and Arthur.She asked Blair, “Do they have any ideas for the wedding? We can help them prepare in advance.”Blair said, “We can call Trace and ask.”Mable looked at the time. It was midnight in Monafett, and she did not want to disturb them by calling at this hour. She smiled and said, “I’ll call her tomorrow.”Getting two good news in a row today made Mable feel particularly good. After dinner, she could not help but want to drink some wine to celebrate.Blair had not drunk for a long time, either. Seeing her in high spirits,
Kyle stared into Zoe’s eyes. He had indeed noticed it, but he was not sure yet.However, when Zoe called him by his full name, he was completely certain.Zoe had regained her memories.From the moment she woke up, her emotions had been off. Even Monica noticed something wrong with her, so how could he not have seen it?Kyle looked at Zoe, reaching out to brush the hair by her temples. “It’s been a long time since you called me that.”Zoe had not called him since waking up, but as soon as she did, she called him Kyle instead of Ky. He knew then she must have remembered everything.Although Kyle knew that this day would come sooner or later, he did not expect her to regain her memories at this moment.He was completely unprepared and caught off guard.Zoe lowered her head. “That’s what I used to call you, but you tricked me into calling you Ky.”She remembered everything as soon as she woke up.The events that happened when she had forgotten felt like a dream, too surreal to be
Kyle named the baby Six not only because he was born at 6 pounds and 6 ounces but also because June 6th was the day they first met.He would always remember the scene when he first saw Zoe, even though their relationship started with deception, manipulation, and even revenge.Kyle caressed Zoe’s cheek and said, “Zoe, I’ve never told you this, but I fell in love with you the moment I saw you. It was love at first sight.“I want you to stay by my side forever and let me stay by your side forever. I’ll never let you go again in this lifetime.”Zoe’s eyes slowly reddened as she listened to Kyle’s heartfelt words.Indeed, she never knew he fell in love with her at first sight...They both did.Kyle gently wiped away her tears. “Zoe, I promise you. We’ll only part in death, never in life.”Zoe choked and nodded, burying her face in his chest as she cried.In her arms, Six seemed to sense his mother’s emotions and moved restlessly.Zoe quickly comforted him.“Let me.” Kyle took the
At the hospital. When Zoe woke up again, it was already the next morning.As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Kyle sitting by her bedside.Kyle noticed her waking up and quickly held her hand. “Zoe, you’re awake. How do you feel?”Zoe stared at the man in front of her and blinked, feeling shocked.When she did not answer, Kyle immediately became nervous. “What’s wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”Zoe remained silent and continued to stare at him. Her eyes gradually turned red, and her nose tingled with a strong sense of sourness.Kyle’s heart clenched at the sight. “Zoe, don’t scare me like this. Zoe...”He was getting anxious and was just about to call the doctor when she suddenly grabbed his hand. “I... I’m okay. I just had a nightmare. I’m a bit groggy after waking up.”Kyle hugged her, his warm hand gently patting her back. “It’s okay. I’ve been by your side all along.”Zoe buried her face in his shoulder, softly humming without saying anything.At that mom
“I see.”Outside the delivery room, Kyle’s family and the others were still waiting anxiously.Close to midnight, the door finally opened, and the nurse carried the baby out.“It’s a boy. Both mother and son are safe.”Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.Before long, Zoe was pushed out. Monica checked on the baby before hurriedly walking to Zoe’s side and taking her hand. “Zoe, you did so well.”“I’m okay, Mom.”Zoe was still very weak after just giving birth, and her voice was weak. Monica immediately told her husband to call the servants to brew a tonic and sent it over.Mable walked to Zoe and felt her heart ache when she saw the latter’s pale face, but she smiled and said, “Congratulations, Zoe.”Zoe smiled, no longer having the strength to speak.Blair and Solomon congratulated Kyle.Kyle nodded, not paying attention to them, and took Zoe back to the ward with the nurse.Zoe was a first-time mother, so she was extremely exhausted after giving birth an
As soon as Mable learned that Zoe was about to go into labor, she rushed to the hospital immediately. It was late at night, and Blair was worried, so he accompanied her.When the two arrived at the hospital, Zoe had already been taken into the delivery room. Kyle followed her in, but his parents waited anxiously outside.Mable looked at Monica and Floyd and asked, “Isn’t Zoe’s due date still about ten days away? Why did it suddenly come early?”Monica said, “We’re not sure, either. After dinner tonight, Zoe said her stomach was hurting. Kyle helped her upstairs to rest, but not long after, he called for someone to prepare the car to go to the hospital...”Seeing Mable stare anxiously at the delivery room, Blair held her hand and comforted her. “Don’t worry. Zoe has been healthy her whole pregnancy. There shouldn’t be any problems.”Mable nodded. “Yeah, I hope both the mother and child are safe.”Soon, Solomon and Ines also arrived.Solomon greeted Kyle’s parents and asked, “How
Without saying anything, Solomon placed his behind Ines’ head and kissed her.Ines wrapped her arms around his waist...Knock, knock!The untimely sound of knocking interrupted them.Ines jumped like a startled deer, eyes wide and cheeks red.The servant’s voice came from outside. “Sir, dinner is ready.”Solomon hugged Ines and cleared his throat. “Got it. We’ll be right there.”The servant acknowledged and left.Ines buried her head in Solomon’s chest and took a deep breath before saying, “Let’s go. Don’t want your parents to wait too long.”“Yeah.”Solomon stroked her head and looked at the drawing he had just completed. “Once it’s dry, I’ll have it framed and hang it in the bedroom, okay?”Ines asked, “In this bedroom?”Solomon nodded and kissed her forehead. “Yeah, we’ll probably come back to stay here often in the future.”Ines pursed her lips and smiled silently.“Let’s go have dinner.” Solomon led her downstairs.After having dinner at the Rowland residence, Solom
Solomon embraced Ines from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. “I learned to draw when I was young and almost did fine arts for college.”“Why didn’t you?”Winning first prize in a national art competition indicated a high level of drawing skill.Solomon said, “Painting is just one of my many interests. I do it to pass the time when I’m bored. I’ve never thought of becoming an artist.”Ines nodded. “I see.”Solomon suddenly perked up and opened a small cabinet beside the bookshelf, taking out a canvas and some paints. “Come on, I’ll draw a portrait.”Ines was stunned. “Of me?”“Yep. Give me a moment.”Solomon led Ines to sit on the sofa, then went out to find a servant to bring him the easel.Although he had not painted in many years, he still had all the tools he used before.Before long, the servant helped him bring in the easel and other tools.After looking at the layout of the bedroom, Solomon asked Ines to sit in the soft chair by the window, where the lighting w
Ines blinked. “I was just thinking about what to bring to your house tomorrow. I can’t go empty-handed...”Solomon laughed at her words. “You don’t need to bring anything. Just seeing you will make them happy.”“That won’t do. I still need to buy something.”Although she knew that Solomon’s parents did not lack anything, she could not just go without a gift. It was still necessary to have proper etiquette.Ines was a little nervous at the thought of visiting his parents tomorrow. “Can you tell me what your parents are like?”Solomon noticed her nervousness and squeezed her hand. “Don’t worry. My mom and dad are very nice. They won’t make things difficult for you.”Ines looked at him and nodded.With him by her side, she was not that worried.She heard Solomon say that his father liked tea, so she bought a gift box from the supermarket. In addition, she also brought some nutritional supplements to bring along when they go to Solomon’s house tomorrow.After buying everything, th
