”What?!” Madam Springsteen screamed in complete astonishment. Lily added, "He also said that Sylvia didn’t give birth prematurely and that there's only half a month left before her due date." Madam Springsteen put up her fingers and began counting. If it was just as Odell claimed, would this not suggest that she was pregnant with this child even before she went to Galston with Thomas? All along, the child was Odell's? "No... No, I heard from Ramona that the b*tch had been divorced from Odell long before she went to Galston with Thomas. I heard that the two of them had been involved long before they even departed for Galston.” “Maybe she was still secretly involved with Odell at the time, we just didn’t know about it yet.” "Hmph, what a scoundrel!” Madam Springsteen cussed, then immediately speculated. “This only makes it more likely that the boy is Thomas'." Lily’s expression shifted. “Are you saying that she’s intentionally claiming that the boy is Odell’s to c

The blankets were as soft as snow. Everything else such as pillows, bolsters, and whatnot was made ready for her. Aunt Tonya took Flint in her arms and entered the room with Isabel and Liam following closely. She set Flint right next to his mother. Isabel demanded attention as usual and immediately crawled onto the bed and lay down next to Flint. Liam did not climb onto the bed. He brought a chair with him and moved it next to Sylvia's bed to sit. Sylvia addressed him tenderly, “Liam, climb on the bed with us.” The bed was very large and there was still space. Liam turned to look at Odell who was standing nearby and leaning against the wall closely observing him. His gaze was sharp and cold. Liam made a look and stated, "I'll just sit." With that, he took out a book from his pocket and began reading. Sylvia smiled and sighed softly. Knock knock. Soon, there was a knock on the door. Sebastian informed, “Sir, the matrons we hired for the mada

The two matron nurses were very professional. Apart from when Sylvia needed to breastfeed Flint, they took charge of looking after the boy the entire time. There was nothing that Aunt Tonya needed to worry about. By the end of the day, Sylvia was already getting friendly with them and began addressing them as Aunt Wanda and Aunt Flora. After lunch, Sylvia breastfed Flint again and took a nap with Isabel and Liam after that. She was soundly asleep when suddenly, there was a loud and abrupt noise outside. She opened her eyes wearily. It was only her and Flint left on the bed. Liam and Isabel were nowhere to be seen. She could still hear the commotion coming from outside. She got out of bed to take a look. Meanwhile, inside the living room. Aunt Tonya was doing her best to hold back Ramona. Ramona jabbed a finger at Aunt Tonya and exclaimed furiously, "Do you know who I am? Get out of the way!" Aunt Tonya stood her ground and declared adamantly, “I don’t care

Sebastian was appalled by this and managed to step in just in time to hold Ramona steady. Sylvia was just as horrified. Fortunately, Ramona regained her balance in time. She beat her chest with her hand several times and seemed to regain her composure after that. Her complexion still seemed rather pale. "I just wanted to see the children. I have no other intentions. How could all of you gang up on a frail old lady like me?” She wiped her eyes with her hands and seemed like she was going to cry. Aunt Tonya frowned upon earring this. Isabel pursed her lips indifferently. Sylvia became more hospitable after this as she offered kindly. “Come up if you really want to see the boy.” Although she was not very fond of Ramona, she was still Grandma’s sister at the end of the day. The least she could do was to extend a bit of hospitality. Ramona seemed appeased by this, evident by the sudden transformation of her expression. Then, she promptly strutted up the stairs.

Ramona marched straight to the living room without stopping. Sebastian was going to walk her out. She glared at him venomously. "Don't bother walking me out. I’ll never come back to this place again!” Sebastian smiled as politely as he could and stopped following her. Ramona suddenly stammered, and glared at Sebastian again before strutting out of the house. Her car was parked right in front of the gate. Upon reaching her car, she could not wait a moment longer and promptly extracted a transparent plastic bag from the leather bag she carried with her. She made sure that the two strands of hair inside were still intact. One of them was the hair she plucked from Sylvia’s baby whose identity of the father was still largely unclear. The other hair was the one she picked up from the drain in the shower. Based on her estimations, Sylvia who had just given birth and got home today must not have had time to take a shower yet. Therefore, this strand of hair from the sh

He promptly went back into the house. Shortly after that, he arrived outside the bedroom. The door was open. He could immediately spot Sylvia lying on the bed inside. Her face still seemed rather pale, but she seemed more vibrant than the night when she gave birth. She was talking to Isabel and Liam. “Even though your great aunt is very unruly, you both still have to respect her as an elder, especially since she’s the mother of your great-grandmother, understand?” She spoke gently with an underlying undertone of sternness. Liam had a silent look and had nothing to add. Isabel pouted and protested. "She’s so annoying! Back then, she even told us that you don’t want us anymore and ran off with Uncle.” Sylvia frowned upon hearing this. "She said that?” "Yeah! She says that we’re abandoned children that nobody wants!” Isabel was very upset upon remembering this. The tip of her nose glowed red. Sylvia promptly took her into her arms while also patting Liam

Odell's eyes were dazed for a moment.He raised his long legs and walked into the room.Soon, he arrived at the bed. He bent down, reached past Isabel, and his handsome face came close to Sylvia and kissed her on the lips directly.Sylvia immediately pushed him away.The little ones were still around.Odell kissed her twice before releasing her.His tall figure sat by the bed. Pretending nothing happened, he looked at her and asked, "Did Grand-aunt Ramona come over?"Sylvia hummed. "She came to see Flint.""Did she scold you?""No," she replied."She scolded me and Aunt Tonya!" Isabel, who was pretending to be asleep, immediately opened her eyes to snitch on Ramona.Odell's eyes cooled. "Why did she scold you?""Mommy and Flint were sleeping when she came over, so Aunt Tonya and I didn't let her come up, but she insisted on coming up. Not only did she scold Aunt Tonya, she even said I have no proper upbringing! Humph!"She puffed up her chubby little face as she spoke.Od

Sylvia looked at him in confusion. "What's wrong?""Do you not want to sleep with me?" His voice also sank.She quickly said, "Flint will cry when he's hungry, so it'll disturb your rest. Besides, I... I...""You what?"She looked down to avoid his eyes and whispered, "I just gave birth and haven't recovered yet. I can't do anything with you for a month."Smack.Her head was immediately slapped.He frowned at her. "I genuinely just want to sleep with you."Was he a pervert? He already endured for more than half a year. Could he not endure it for a month more?Sylvia immediately looked embarrassed and lowered her head even more.Odell held back his laughter and lifted her face. Seeing her red face that refused to look at him, he asked in a low voice, "What are you thinking in that head of yours, Sylvia? Why don't you tell me?"Sylvia closed her eyes and said, "It's nothing. I misunderstood you."He gave a low hum, then sealed her lips and nibbled on them fiercely."Mm!" Syl

She was her usual self in every aspect. She put her heart into her job and never started trouble so long as nobody tried to start trouble with her. The crew cycled through their locations during their shoot. The constant travel made her skin break out slightly, but there were no other concerns otherwise. The shoot progressed very smoothly and within three months, they managed to wrap up everything at the mountainous region previously mentioned. It was nearly evening when they wrapped up the shoot. Holding a bouquet in hand, she took a group picture with the crew and celebrated with everyone. After that, she planned to hitch a ride with another crew member and leave for home. To their demise, some men in uniform who claimed to be the road maintenance technicians showed up to break the bad news to them. They mentioned that they had to repair some of the roads urgently and so the way home was temporarily obstructed. The director took his phone and called the city hotline fo

He remembered his first meeting with Isabel. She was sitting all by herself on the floor, in the middle of nowhere. Her vulnerable expression only made her more endearing. So, he managed to get her to go to his place and installed her in his home. He fell for her and paid careful attention to all her needs. It did not take long before Isabel caught feelings for him as well. The two of them got together in no time. Their days were plain and ordinary, but also very fulfilling, that was until he met Clarice. With the help of his father, his power struggle with Roland had reached a tipping point. It was at that opportune moment when Clarice’s father saw something in Roland and planned to wed his daughter Clarice to him to join up their families, which was a cause for alarm for Decker. He stressed over it for an entire night before approaching Clarice himself the very next day. Clarice quickly caught feelings for him as well. Furthermore, Roland had been foolish enough to reject

Decker was smiling quite earnestly at Isabel. Isabel threw a deeply suspicious look at him, then she glanced at the stack of documents laid out on top of the table in front of her. “Transferal of Shares.” She was dumbfounded. "I've gone through the contract, it’s safe to sign so go ahead.” Roland picked up a pen and handed it to her. "Roland, I..." "Sign it first, I’ll explain when we get home.” Isabel frowned and tried to protest. "I—" "Don't make me have to beg." Isabel did not know how to respond. Fine. She briefly scanned through the contract. The contract stated Decker’s agreement to transfer the remaining forty percent of his shares in Rockwell Corporation to her. Roland must have talked to the shareholders of Rockwell Corporation about this as well. They all regarded Isabel with polite smiles. Isabel had flipped through the final page of the document. She signed her name on one of the marked-out sections. She proceeded to sign all thr

They ended the call shortly after that. Isabel glanced at Martha and was hesitating if she should break the news right away. Martha seemed to have sensed her staring and suddenly turned to her with a flash of concern. "Isabel, what's wrong?" Isabel took a deep breath and broke the news. "Auntie, Master Rockwell just passed away." Martha's eyes widened. After a lengthy silence that lasted more than ten seconds, she started to break out in tears. She covered her face with her hands and expressed amid bouts of tears mixed with laughter, “Wonderful! About time! I hope he enjoys life in the underworld. God knows that someone like him will never deserve a spot in heaven!” Isabel did not know whether she should celebrate with Martha or console her. Soon, Martha began to collect herself. She briefly wiped away her tears and joyfully took Isabel's hand. "Isabel, let’s go shopping! I’m in such a good mood today, I’m going to go on a shopping spree!” "Okay. But Roland w

Isabel held onto Roland's hand firmly during the entire drive home after leaving the hospital. It was because Roland’s hands were cold and rigid. Isabel sat with him and tirelessly rubbed his hand to keep them warm. After one hand was warm, she would shift her attention to the other. By the time she managed to warm the other hand, the original hand would turn cold again. She decided it was easier to take both of his hands and caress them with the warmth of her palms. Roland looked at her with a gentle glow deep within his eyes. “Thank you, Isabel,” he said softly. Thank you for loving him, and for sticking by his side all this time despite circumstances. Isabel smiled. “I’m just warming your hands, it's no big deal. Still, you’re welcome." Roland smiled faintly and left it at that. Soon, his hands began to warm up off of the heat of Isabel’s palms. When Isabel felt that his hands were no longer freezing, she prepared to pull her hand away. That was when

Decker looked nothing like his usual self. The pompous, arrogant man who held himself far above others and who expected everyone around him to kiss up to him because he was superior to them all. It was as if he had been plunged not only to Earth but a pile of swamp. He had completely lost his usual grace. Isabel said crossly, "Decker, have you gone mental? Is everything going on too much for you?” “Yeah, could you help me?” he said with a coy smile, “Just one hug should be enough to take care of it all.” Isabel rolled her eyes. Without warning, he suddenly braced himself and lunged right at Isabel, stepping past Brandon who was caught off guard by this sudden attack. Isabel barely had time to react. Just when it seemed like his hand was about to graze Isabel, a long pair of arms seized Isabel from behind and jerked her backward. It was swiftly followed by a long, muscular leg shooting outward right next to Isabel. Thump! Decker was kicked to the ground.

"How did you and Roland meet?" Decker suddenly asked. Isabel turned away, fully intent on ignoring him. "Did you meet each other at Carter Corporation? Or did you meet him outside of work and gradually fell in love with him, then you decided to set him up with a position at Carter Corporation?” What did he mean by that? Was he insinuating that Roland was relying on her to snake his way into Carter Corporation? She threw a sideways, belittling look at him. "Do you think Roland is anything like you? He wouldn’t latch on another woman to further his goals.” Decker was not upset by this as he continued with a smug smile. "Oh? Then how did he get into Carter Corporation?" “He proved his worth.” Isabel realized that she had been roped in by Decker again. Nevertheless, she continued, “He passed the interviews himself. I was one of the interviewers and initially planned to dismiss him, but he managed to leave a very good impression on my father and the rest was history.” "

"I never meant to kill him! Roland, you have to believe me. Why would I still try to deceive you when I’m in this state?” “In that case, you can go ahead and explain things to him in the afterlife.” Master Rockwell was taken aback by this, his demeanor tightened. "You...you..." Roland looked at him calmly. "Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you. It was Grandma and my parents who raised me. They instilled morals and virtue into me and made sure I’d grow into a decent man.” Master Rockwell was briefly relieved to hear this, but before he could rid himself of his trepidation, Roland continued in a dark voice, "But I won’t forget about you and Decker bribing all those media outlets to defame Isabel. I know you manipulated the stock prices to try to kick me out of the corporation. I’ll make sure to settle our score through the legal system.” If convicted guilty, they would have to rot in prison. “Roland… listen to me, Roland. Decker is your uncle. If you want revenge, you can come

Master Rockwell must have heard their shifting movements and opened his eyes. When he recognized the faces of Roland and Isabel, there was a brief glow in his murky eyes. He motioned to the nurse to have her help him sit up from the bed. After he managed to position himself seated up against the head of the bed, he asked the nurse to leave. Then he cast a loving, tender smile on Roland and Isabel. “Roland, Isabel, please have a seat.” Roland said disinterestedly, "We have things to get to, just hurry up and tell us what you have to say." Isabel stayed silent. A look flashed in Master Rockwell's eyes. Then, he turned to Isabel and expressed regretfully, "Isabel, I’m a foolish old man, it was me who told Decker to leak pictures of you two. He had no choice because I forced him to do so. If you have to blame someone, blame me!” Isabel frowned. She was somewhat impressed by how smoothly the old man switched his mask from one to another. From a forlorn and sad state t
