Mable laughed. “He was never a gentleman, so there’s nothing surprising about him taking advantage of the situation.”“How can you still laugh about this?”Rahman looked at Mable in frustration. He glanced at the ring on her finger and grew angrier. “You actually agreed?”Mable nodded. “Yes.”After a pause, she added, “We also went to the city hall to get our license before returning to the hospital.”Rahman nearly spat out blood. He pounded his chest and looked at Mable. “What?! You’ve already gotten your license?!“Mable, are you out of your mind? You know Blair doesn’t like you, and he’s our enemy. Aren’t you the sheep walking into the lion’s den by marrying him?”“I had no choice, Rahman.”Rahman clenched his fists. He knew that right now, Blair was needed to save her son.If it were him, he might also have agreed to Blair’s conditions without hesitation.However...He still felt furious.‘That bastard. He brought so much misery to Mable yet still has the nerve to ask h
Blair returned to his ward, followed closely by Solomon.After closing the door, Solomon said, “Blair, you would never have expected this. Anthony was also in Santaviz six years ago when you were in danger. He had already known Aust at that time. I also found out that Anthony had smuggled half of the weapons Aust used to launch riots in Santaviz.”Blair frowned. His face was stern. “It looks like I underestimated him.”It meant Anthony was also involved in the plot against Blair in Santaviz six years ago.“What’s the relationship between Anthony and Black C?” Blair asked.Black C was the largest arms-smuggling organization in Monafett. Although Blair had not dealt with Black C in recent years, he heard about their affairs.Solomon said, “Anthony is the boss of Black C. He and Aust have maintained a close working relationship over the years.”Amos was stunned to hear this. “Anthony is the boss of Black C?!”Blair had suspected it before, but Black C hid it so well that they neve
Blair nodded, looking emotionless....Luke was detained in the detention center because Ralph’s murder case was not open for investigation yet.When the police brought Luke to the visitation room, Luke saw that Anthony was alone and immediately asked, “Where is the lawyer? Why isn’t the lawyer here?”Luke had been arrested for such a long time but had not gotten a lawyer to represent him. It was also the first time Anthony came to visit him.Anthony looked at his father. In just ten days, Luke had become thinner and more haggard. He looked like he had aged ten years.Anthony smiled and said, “Dad, there is conclusive evidence that you killed Ralph. Even if you hire a defense lawyer, you can’t be exonerated. So, why bother?”“You!” Luke widened his eyes and could not believe what his son had said.Anthony wanted to watch him die.Anthony leaned on the chair and crossed his legs, looking relaxed. “Besides, Blair won’t let you get away with your crimes. I just found out that he
After coming out of the detention center, Anthony thought of what his father had just said. A wicked smile appeared on his face.It turned out that the Fowlers and the Jeffersons had such a secret past that no one knew about.After getting in the car, the driver asked, “Sir, do you want to go to the airport now?”Anthony nodded. There was no point in staying in Richworth, especially with Blair being such a threat.Now was not the time to confront Blair head-on.Robert, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at Anthony and said, “Sir, I just got the news that Master Blair and Mable went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage license this morning.”“Huh? They’re married?”Anthony looked surprised.Blair and Mable were still at war with each other two days ago. Why did they get remarried so quickly?Have they reconciled?That did not sound possible.Robert explained, “Mable’s son needs a hematopoietic stem cell transplant, and Master Blair is a perfect match.
Blair looked at Mable and raised his hand. “Mabes, come here. I have something to tell you.”Mable was startled. She looked at his outstretched hand, feeling repulsed.Tracey tactfully said, “Since you’re okay, I’m going to see Spike. You two can talk.”After saying that, she left the room quickly.Blair’s hand remained outstretched while he looked at Mable with deep eyes.Mable hesitated for a moment before she walked over. “What do you want to say?”Blair held Mable’s hand gently, not daring to use too much force. “Let’s have a wedding ceremony after Spike recovers.”Mable was startled. “A wedding?”Why would Blair want to have a wedding with her?Blair nodded and looked at her with such tenderness. “We’re legally married now that we have our marriage license. All we need is a wedding ceremony.”He wanted a grand wedding to announce to the world that Mable Jefferson was his wife.Mable looked at Blair coldly. “Blair, we’re merely husband and wife on paper. There is no need
Amos said, “After the anniversary banquet, you and Olivia disappeared at the same time. Master Blair searched for your whereabouts, so he did not have time to care about Luke. Moreover, Master Blair suddenly fell ill and went into a coma for more than half a year. When he woke up, he had to solve X Group’s crisis and continued looking for you, so he didn’t have time to deal with Luke.”Amos did not know if Mable would believe him, but he did not want her to continue to misunderstand Blair.Blair and Mable obviously loved each other. It was such a pity they drifted apart because of some misunderstandings.Mable listened to Amos expressionlessly. If what he said was true, then Anthony must have lied to her.“Why was Blair in a coma for half a year?”Mable had heard Tracey mention this before. Tracey said that Blair suddenly became unwell while he was looking for Mable. He vomited blood and fell into a coma. Moreover, he had symptoms of organ failure during the six-month coma.Amos
Spike was not afraid of Blair.Tracey was not used to seeing Spike’s cold and aloof face because he was always so cute in front of her.Blair looked at Spike and said patiently, “Spike, your mother and I are married now, so I am your legal father.”When Spike heard this, he raised his head and looked at Blair coldly. Then, he picked up his tablet and typed, “So you like fathering other men’s children?”Tracey was sitting next to Spike. When she saw him type this, she almost laughed out loud.Spike’s words were, as his name suggested, sharp and jabbing.Blair scoffed when he read it.He thought Spike must be mentally mature to say this at only five years old.Blair said, “Whether you like it or not, I will raise you with your mother. We will be living together.”Spike wrote on the tablet. “Did mommy marry you because it was your condition for donating your hematopoietic stem cells to me?”Blair nodded.Spike took the tablet and typed, “If you threaten my mom to marry you like
The next day, Spike started surgery at 10 a.m.The surgery lasted nearly six hours. After the surgery, Spike was pushed into the intensive care unit.The first 48 hours after the surgery were the most critical. The surgery would only be considered successful if Spike’s body showed no signs of rejection.Fortunately, after 48 hours, everything was normal with Spike. He did not show any signs of rejection. Mable finally felt relieved.Even the doctor found it a bit unbelievable. After all, the donor and the recipient were not related by blood and had a big genetic gap. Logically speaking, there would be some signs of rejection, but Spike’s situation was rare....At night, Mable stayed by the hospital bed and told Spike a bedtime story.Spike had been feeling much better in the past two days. He would not fall asleep right after taking his medicine, like before the surgery. His condition was improving slowly.Mable no longer felt so anxious now that she knew Spike would recover a
