Blair had made an appointment with someone to have dinner at Osteria Francescana.Unexpectedly, upon arriving at the restaurant, he saw Mable and Alec having a candlelit dinner in the outdoor garden.It turned out that the person Alec wanted to pursue was Mable!Ha!She had just accepted a man’s proposal two days ago, but now she was going on a date with another man. Furthermore, this was happening before they had even divorced...The lawyer said she was busy and did not have time to discuss the divorce with him. It seemed she was busy entangling herself with different men!This fickle woman was truly skilled at seducing men.Blair watched as Mable laughed and chatted with Alec, his chest burning with anger.He walked over and said with a fake smile, “What a coincidence, Mr. Rothschild.”Alec was surprised to see Blair and stood up. “Mr. Fowler, what a coincidence indeed. Are you having dinner here as well?”Blair nodded and glanced at Mable from the corner of his eyes, an ic
Blair’s smile was wicked as he pinched the cigarette butt forcefully. “What do you think I’m doing?”Before Mable could react, he grabbed her wrist and wrapped his other hand around her waist, pushing her into a cubicle in the gents’ washroom.“Blair...”Mable was furious and tried to struggle but was unable to match his strength.The cubicle door was locked with a click!Mable was startled, instinctively sensing the danger. She tried to escape, but Blair pinned her hands above her head and pressed her back against the cold door.Mable yelled at him. “Let go!”This pervert!How could he take her into the men’s washroom? What if someone came in and saw them?Blair looked at the woman in front of him and said viciously, “I’m warning you, Mable. As long as we’re not divorced, you’re still my wife. Don’t blame me for not being polite if you dare hook up with other men!”Mable’s face flushed with anger. Hook up with other men? Since when did she ever do that?“I’m warning you too
In the cramped cubicle, Mable’s hands were pinned above her head, and one of her legs was grabbed by him. She was wearing a dress, so the action exposed her long snow-white legs.Mable felt like a fish on a chopping board, completely at his mercy.She glared at him, furious and humiliated. Her voice was filled with frustration. “Let me go or I’ll scream!”If not for the fact that she had suffered serious injuries and her skills were not as sharp as before, she would not have been restrained by him.Blair’s lips curled into a smirk. “Go ahead and scream. I’d like to see who ends up being embarrassed.”“You—!”Just then, footsteps echoed from outside.Someone was coming in!Mable was so frightened that she quickly pursed her lips, not even daring to breathe.Blair looked at her and smiled wickedly.His warm hand caressed her smooth thigh, deliberately provoking her.Mable glared at him with wide eyes, her gaze sharp as knives.Blair leaned close to her ear and lowered his voi
Mable said expressionlessly. “It’s fine. My sensory nerves are damaged, so I can’t feel pain.”The doctor was stunned and looked at Mable with sympathetic eyes.To the side, Blair frowned and looked at her wrist.Under the light, a large scar on her wrist stood out conspicuously.Furthermore, both hands had scars.How did she get them?Were they from attempts of self-harm or some other reason?A sharp pain suddenly pierced through his heart. He gripped his chest as he paled.He hurriedly walked out of the emergency room, took the painkillers from his pocket, and swallowed two pills. He leaned against the cold wall and took deep breaths to alleviate the pain in his chest.“Master Blair, are you okay?”Amos had gone to settle the bill and get the medicine. When he returned to see Blair’s painful expression, he quickly ran up to ask.Blair nodded slightly and closed his eyes.Before long, Mable’s dislocated wrist was set.When the doctor took a CT scan of her hand, it include
Blair’s sudden fainting startled Amos, who quickly called Solomon and Tracey.By the time they rushed to the hospital, Blair had already woken up.The doctor said he fainted due to an overdose of painkillers, resulting in a sudden side effect.After learning about Blair’s frequency of taking painkillers from Amos, he sighed and said grimly, “Mr. Fowler, over-the-counter medications are also drugs. It must be taken following medical advice and with a controlled dosage. You’ve already experienced side effects. If you continue at this frequency, it’ll pose serious risks to your health.”Tracey and Solomon exchanged worried glances at the doctor’s words.It seemed their worst fears had come true.When they were in Richworth, Blair did not take painkillers that often. It only increased after coming to Italee and meeting Mable.Blair sat up on the bed and stared at the back of his hand, receiving an IV with lifeless eyes. After a moment of silence, he asked, “Are there any other medic
Was it a side effect of the poison from that time?Blair did not respond. After a moment of silence, he asked Solomon and Tracey, “How did the injuries on Mable’s finger joints happen?”Tracey exchanged a look with Solomon before saying, “Are you sure you want to know, Blair?”They were worried he would faint again from pain if he listened.Blair nodded. “It’s fine. Tell me. I want to know the reason.”He had just taken painkillers. Even if it hurt, it would not be that bad.Solomon said, “Back then, due to a misunderstanding between you and Mable... Mable was captured by Aust and tortured. All her fingers were broken, and the tendons in both hands were severed. Although they were reattached later, some after effects remained, and she had been undergoing rehabilitation...”As Blair listened, vague images flashed in his mind. The more he tried to recall, the more uncomfortable he felt.Even with the painkillers, it could not suppress the pain.Blair gripped his head, feeling a
In Saint Rosa Hotel.Spike looked at the man in front of him, his face filled with suspicion. “Are you really my uncle?”“Yes, your mother is my younger sister.” Jeremiah bent down and looked at Spike with a warm smile.He took out his phone and showed a photo of himself and Mable.Jeremiah rubbed the boy’s head and said, “Hubert, do you want to come back to the Mullers with me?”To the side, Tracey heard this and hurriedly pulled Spike to her. “Technology is very advanced nowadays. Who knows if that photo was shopped or if you’re just an imposter?”Although she knew that Jeremiah was indeed Mable’s brother, she could not entrust Spike to him.Jeremiah stood up and looked at Tracey indifferently. “I have no reason to lie, Ms. Fowler. Also, Hubert is my sister’s flesh and blood. The Fowlers have kept him for so many years, but it’s time for him to come back to the Mullers.”Tracey got angry. “Spike is also my brother’s flesh and blood. His last name is Fowler! There’s nothing wr
Tracey looked at Blair and Solomon. “When did you two come?”Solomon frowned. “Didn’t you see us enter?”Tracey shook her head slowly, her mind completely blank...Blair saw that Spike was not in the living room or the bedroom and asked, “Where’s Spike?”“Spike?”Tracey was stunned for a moment and suddenly remembered. “Blair, Spike was taken away by Jeremiah Muller.”She recalled the situation earlier and knocked on her head. “I... I don’t know what he did to me, but I couldn’t move. I watched as he took Spike away.”Blair stiffened. When they entered, it looked like Tracey had been in a daze for a long time...Solomon looked at Tracey and asked, “Were you hypnotized?”Tracey felt fearful. “Does Jeremiah know hypnotism?”A dark glint flashed in Blair’s eyes. Hypnotism...He was not in the mood to think about it now. He was worried about Spike, so he turned and walked out. “I’m going to the Mullers.”Tracey followed. “Wait for me. I’m going too!”...In Muller Manor.At
