After Fowler Enterprise went bankrupt and Luke was imprisoned, Blair completely eradicated his influence.When Luke escaped from the mental hospital, both the police and Blair’s men searched for him. However, he seemed to have disappeared without a trace, as if he evaporated from the earth.Now, he suddenly reappeared and caused such a disturbance. It was clear that he was not working alone.Who sent the subordinates to him, secretly protecting him from being found?It seemed that there was someone still helping Luke from the shadows. What happened this time proved that all these threats must be eliminated!“Where’s Luke being held?” Kyle asked.“In the basement of a villa in the suburbs.”Kyle said, “I’ll head there now. Call me if anything comes up.”“Okay.”...Tracey arrived at the hospital early and cried outside the ICU for a long time when she learned about Mable’s condition.She could not accept this reality and pleaded with the doctors to do everything possible to s
Mable wanted to say something, but Blair interrupted her. “Your throat is hurt, Mabes. Rest, don’t talk.”The toxicity of the poison was too strong and burned her throat.Mable looked at Blair’s worried expression and nodded.She was too weak at the moment and could not even check her own condition. She did not know whether she could survive or not.Blair used a wet cloth to wipe her dry lips and said gently, “Don’t worry, Mabes. Spike and Nicki are doing well at home. Tracey will take good care of them. All you have to focus on is getting better. I’ll always be with you.”Mable looked at him and moved her lips.In the past, to communicate with Spike, Blair had deliberately learned how to lip-read. Thus, even though Mable did not speak, he could understand what she was saying.“I’ll stay strong,” she mouthed.“I’ll stay strong for you and the children…”Blair gripped her hand and pressed a tender kiss on the back of it, his eyes filled with love.“Thank you, Mabes...”Mable,
Kyle paused and rephrased, “Who did you contact after leaving the mental hospital? Or did anyone contact you?”This time, there was finally a slight movement in Luke’s vacant eyes. “He... contacted me...”“Who is he?”“East Erebar... Stephen...”Kyle’s expression changed as he clenched his fists. “Do you have his number?”“No... number... He... contacted me...”Arthur stood behind Kyle. When he heard Luke mention the words ‘East Erebar’ and ‘Stephen’, he instantly paled.He clenched his fists tightly and stared at Luke as if his eyes could pierce a hole through Luke.Kyle finished his questioning and was ready to leave.Before leaving, he glanced at Arthur and said, “I’ll have to trouble you to keep an eye on him here for now. He’s still useful. Don’t let him die.”“Don’t worry, Mr. Goodman. I know.”After Kyle left, Arthur walked up to Luke with bloodshot eyes. “Luke Fowler, you deserve to die!”Just then, his phone rang.Arthur picked up the phone and saw a number starti
After leaving the basement, Kyle went to the hospital.Mable had been transferred from the ICU to a VIP ward, with Blair guarding her closely.“Luke confessed. Someone from East Erebar contacted him after he escaped from the mental hospital. He mentioned that the person who contacted him was working for Stephen...”Kyle told Blair the information Luke revealed.Blair sat by the bed, carefully holding Mable’s hand. She had only woken up for a short while before falling asleep again.At Kyle’s words, a cold and gloomy aura shrouded Blair’s face. His dark eyes were unfathomable.Stephen of East Erebar again...What grudge did he have against Blair?Blair looked at Kyle and said, “Contact Solomon and tell him to be ready to close the net at any time.”“Got it.”Kyle paused before saying, “Stephen must have people planted in Richworth since he understands Luke’s situation so well. I’ve already sent someone to investigate the clues. We’ll have a lead before long.”Blair nodded and
Zoe was instantly anxious when she heard that Mable was sick. “Mabes is sick? Is it serious? Ky, I want to see Mabes...”Kyle rubbed her head and said, “It’s too late today. We’ll go tomorrow, okay?”With a worried expression, Zoe looked at Kyle and said, “I hope Mabes is okay. With her medical skills, she should be able to heal herself.”Kyle nodded and said nothing.In this world, no matter how good one’s medical skills were, there were still diseases that could not be cured and poisons that could not be detoxified...Zoe saw Kyle’s frown and worried expression and said, “Ky, is Mabes seriously ill?”Kyle looked at her and said, “It’s a bit serious, but we need to be optimistic. You can’t cry when we go to the hospital to see her tomorrow, okay? Mable is already hurting from being sick. She’ll be even more sad if she sees you cry.”Upon hearing this, Zoe felt a sense of unease in her heart.She silently prayed for Mable to be okay....Mable woke up again the next morning.
Mable looked at Blair and forced a smile on her face. “Did you forget? I’m also a doctor. I know very well what my condition is.”The atmosphere in the ward became even heavier.To the side, the doctor and nurse looked at Mable and then at Blair, their expressions filled with helplessness and sorrow.Although they had seen many such scenes as medical professionals, witnessing Mable on the bed now still filled their hearts with lament at her cruel fate.Blair stared at Mable, his eyes filled with endless sadness. “Mabes...”How could he tell her that she only had a month left?It was too cruel...Mable knew Blair could not tell her, so she looked at the doctor and forced a brave smile. “Tell me the truth. How much time do I have left?”The doctor sighed in his heart and said honestly, “Mrs. Fowler, your poisoning is severe, and there are already signs of failure in multiple organs. Based on your current situation, you can hold on for another month at most.”Mable stiffened. A m
When Zoe saw Mable, she immediately rushed over to hold her hand. “Mabes, how are you? Why are your hands so cold?”Mable looked at Zoe and smiled faintly. “I’m fine, Zoe... I’m just a little sick.”Zoe looked at her and touched her face, full of concern. “You don’t look like you’re just a little sick.”“That’s how illnesses are. Don’t worry.”With Zoe keeping her company in the ward, Blair stepped out.“Master Blair, Dr. Sandman has arrived. He’s waiting for you in the office.”Blair nodded and went to the office.In the office, Dr. Sandman was examining Mable’s medical records that Amos gave him.After reading them, he frowned deeply, showing signs of worry.From Mable’s examination results, her condition did not look optimistic.The office door opened, and Blair walked in.He looked at Dr. Sandman and said, “Dr. Sandman, sorry for calling you back to Richworth again.”“No worries. Have a seat, Master Blair.”After Blair sat down, Dr. Sandman picked up Mable’s medical re
Kyle looked at Blair and let out a long sigh, saying, “Amos told me.”Blair nodded faintly. He was also planning to tell Kyle soon.There were many follow-up matters that required Kyle’s assistance.He needed to resolve all the troubles before the surgery.“Blair, you...”“Don’t try to persuade me,” Blair interrupted his words, his voice devoid of any fluctuations. “If the person lying in the hospital bed was Zoe, I think you would make the same decision as me.”Kyle opened his mouth but could not bring himself to speak the words.Forget it.He knew he could not persuade Blair, so he chose not to say anything more.However...“Aren’t you telling Mable?”Blair frowned, and his eyes darkened. “She can’t find out.”Kyle nodded. He knew Blair would choose to keep it from Mable.“Solomon sent a message earlier, saying he wants to have a video call with us. There’s something important he wants to discuss.”Blair nodded and walked toward the hospital room. “Okay, but I want to g
“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
