After a thorough read, she folded the document and spoke up, her voice indifferent, "Kid, who drafted this contract?"

"Our young master did," replied Russell, “Ms. DeRoss, if everything looks fine to you, the contract will take effect once you sign it."

Haley chuckled. She was striking, exuding a bewitching charm.

And yet, within the depths of her clear eyes, there was a peculiar blend of innocence and mystery.

Keith felt his defenses soften and his detachment give way when he saw her smile. It was as if a hole had been poked through his armor of indifference.

Realizing too late that he had been staring at Haley for a while, frustration surged within him.

This woman must have used that same smile to ensnare Dad and confuse Owen...

"I see a problem," she said, her smile vanishing.

She leaned forward, a sense of authority emanating from her.

Looking Keith straight in the eye, her lips twisted into a disdainful curve, "You should be in school at your age, not out here trying to show off.

  • Mommy's Revenge   Chapter 1 Gave birth in the warehouse

    Night, pitch black as ink.A heart-wrenching sound echoed through the back room of the DeRoss family villa's warehouse.Haley DeRoss's face was pale, her lips devoid of all color.Her swollen belly contracted painfully, while crimson blood flowed from her lower body.She was only eight months pregnant, but why was she feeling the urge to give birth...Could this be premature labor?The dangers of giving birth prematurely at only eight months were self-evident...With this thought in mind, she couldn't afford to waste a single moment. She crawled to the door, using all her strength to bang on it."John, I'm going into labor, please, please take me to the hospital... please..." Outside the door sat a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, smoking a cigarette.Upon hearing her plea, he coldly replied, "Miss, the seed in your belly is of unknown origin. Do you really think the master and the Madam would embarrass themselves by sending you to the hospital? Stay put and stop making a fu

    "Don't be scared, my children, mommy is here..."Her heart tightened, and she crawled over, about to hold the babies, when suddenly, a foot stomped on her hand."Sister, you really do have some skill, actually giving birth to a pair of twins."Emily looked at the babies with a cold and sinister expression."Too bad, these two bastard children seem to be unfortunate. They only lived for a few seconds before dying.""Don't speak nonsense! My children are not dead!" Haley's heart almost exploded.She reached out to touch the babies, wanting to feel their faces, gently pat their little bottoms, but before she could touch their soft bodies, a maid walked in, coldly picking up the two babies from the ground."Miss Emily, how should we dispose of these two dead infants?"Emily didn't care at all about whether the babies were alive or dead. If they died, seeing Haley's sadness would bring her immense joy.Of course, even if these two children were alive, it wouldn't matter. With two illegitim

    Four years laterA well-dressed man pounced on her and forcefully pressed her beneath him.Haley’s clothes were torn apart, and every inch of her skin was ravaged without mercy, and she couldn't resist at all...She desperately wanted to see the man's face, but it was obscured by a mist, and his face was indistinct, only his eyes could be seen.Those were a pair of hawk-like sharp eyes, not a ripple could be seen even in the midst of the most intimate activity...The gaze made Haley feel terrified.Her heart skipped a beat suddenly, and then she opened her eyes with a gasp."Mummy, did you have a nightmare?" A soft voice sounded in her ear.Haley suddenly realized that she had just had such a dream on the plane.In the dream, it was the night of her 18th birthday, five years ago, when she was framed by her sister, Emily...After so many years, she had long let go of that incident. She couldn't understand why she still dreamt of that man...Looking into her son's clear eyes, she felt a

    The woman was none other than Emily.Her hand stiffened in mid-air, and tears suddenly welled up on her face. "Owen, I am your mommy, how can you treat me like this... I carried you for nine months, went through a lot of hardships. Can't you speak to me more kindly...?”"Hmph!"Owen's face was full of disdain.He was still young and didn't understand what it meant to carry a child for nine months.But he was very clear that he didn't like Emily, he hated this woman who claimed to be his mommy."Owen, apologize to your mother!"Ivan's eyes filled with coldness, ready to explode.The children of the Winston family could be cold and heartless, but they must respect their elders.Someone who didn't value their own mother would be expelled from the Winston family."Forget it, Ivan..." Emily choked, "Although I am the children's mother, I haven't fulfilled my responsibility of raising them for a single day. It's normal for Owen not to recognize me. Don't scare the child."She paused and con

    "The will?"Barbara's eyes gleamed.May, the eldest Martínez daughter, thought to herself, her married daughter had also been called back home, did that mean she also had a share of the Martínez family's will?Not only her, but the others in the living room also began to have their own thoughts.No one was uninterested in the matter of the will.However, when each of them was considering how much money they could get, several figures walked in from the entrance.Walking beside Madam Martínez was a young and beautiful woman.The woman was wearing jeans and a shirt, with her hair casually tied up, but even with such a simple outfit, it was still stunning.Especially with her extraordinary and elegant temperament, it was hard to find another person like her in Cuenca.Barbara suddenly felt intrigued by this woman. She looked somewhat familiar, but Barbara couldn’t quite place her."Haley, your aunt and uncle are here, go and say hello to them," Madam Martínez pushed Haley.Haley's face h

  • Mommy's Revenge   Chapter 6 Collaboration between Haley and the Martínez

    As Barbara's words fell, countless gazes shot towards her. The most icy and severe one came from Madam Martínez.Barbara looked at her grandmother with a strong warning and displeasure in her eyes.If there weren't so many people present, Barbara suspected that her grandmother would have struck her with her cane.She swallowed her saliva and unwillingly took a step back. However, she accidentally stepped on her son, causing him to cry out in pain.Irritated, Barbara slapped him and said, "Why are you crying? No one died in this house."The five or six-year-old Jerry Miller cried and said sadly, "Mom is mean, Mom is a witch. I don't like Mom anymore!"Barbara, already in a bad mood, was even more angered by her son's public mockery, making her want to slap him again. The mother and son created a chaotic scene in the living room.Madam Martínez had a displeased expression and said calmly, "Haley, after signing the contract, come to my study with me."Haley nodded and, after signing her

    "Are you planning to kick this old woman out as well while you're at it?" Madam Martínez said, walking out with a cane, taking a protective stance.Then, Haley stood in front of Barbara with an attitude.Barbara's mother, suppressing her anger, said tremblingly, "Mom, that's not what I meant. You just saw it. Haley showed no respect and even laid hands on her cousin. With her arrogant personality, she will disrupt the peace of the Martínez family. I am also considering the well-being of the Martínez family...""I think it is you who disrupts the peace of the Martínez family!" Steven angrily interrupted, "If you don't welcome Haley, then go back to your mother's house!"Barbara's aunt, a member of the Martínez family, felt humiliated by her own mother-in-law and husband's public scolding, losing all her dignity.But she didn't dare to say anything more.She reluctantly helped Barbara to her feet and grabbed the still crying Jerry, leading them both straight upstairs.Even though this i

    Haley was one hundred percent sure that the man was Ivan.But why did he deny it?She replayed the scene in her mind and then her face turned dark.Did Mr. Winston think she was using Angela to intentionally get close to him?Could people not be so self-centered?Haley rolled her eyes very ungracefully.She looked down at her daughter in her arms, only to find that Angela's eyes were still staring straight at Ivan's car.She was slightly surprised and said, "Angela, do you recognize that man? Who was that the person just now?"However, the little girl did not react to her question at all.It wasn't until the car disappeared on the road that Angela turned her gaze back and obediently hugged Haley's neck.Haley looked at the driver's hand back and felt guilty: "I'm sorry, Angela sometimes bites people when she gets impatient. Let me take you to the hospital to put some medicine on it..."The driver waved his hand and said, "It's normal for children to bite people. My son also bites me o

    Transmedia Tech, an internet media company.Two years ago, there were rumors of its bankruptcy, and after being acquired, it suddenly came back to life and became a leading player in the internet industry.However, there is not much information about this company on the internet.Haley glanced at Transmedia Tech's profile and said lightly, "What time did they make an appointment?""Half past two, at Pennie Coffee."After finishing her work in the morning, Haley drove straight to Pennie Coffee.She arrived ten minutes early, ordered a cup of coffee, and began to read the information on the internet.She searched for the company again, but she still couldn't find much info, and even the investor info behind it had been removed.It can be seen that this company has a lot of connections.She just didn’t know why this company would take a fancy to her newly opened studio.Haley waited for about five minutes before she heard footsteps outside the private room.She straightened her collar an

    Keith thought that Haley had also planned to gain the trust of the entire Winston family through Owen. This woman's quite a schemer. Keith knew he had to be cautious......Haley picked up the kids and went home. When she was cooking dinner, she received a video call from Owen."Haley, why didn't you come to see me?" Owen's voice was still weak, "I'm so bored here in the hospital all alone. Could you come keep me company? I want to hear stories..."Haley shook the ladle in her hand, "It's too late today; I'll come see you tomorrow and bring you some cookies I've baked.""You're the best, Haley!" Owen's enthusiasm was palpable.Haley’s lips curled into a smile, "Get some rest now, and don't stay up too late, okay?""How about a goodnight kiss, then?" Owen puckered his lips towards the phone screen, a bandage still wrapped around his head, looking both pitiful and comically adorable.Laughing, Haley pressed a kiss to her phone screen and then ended the call.Carrying the freshly stewed

    "The timing is too perfect, isn't it?" Keith said slowly, "Owen got in a car accident, and Haley just happened to be there and then saved him by donating her blood to him. What a coincidence!"His voice was deep and raspy, unlike a four-year-old boy.Ivan's eyes narrowed, "You think Haley staged the accident?""She had a motive," Keith pressed his lips together firmly and continued, "Surely you're aware of the bad blood between Mom and Haley...""It wasn't her," Ivan stated flatly.He had already been briefed on the accident. It was indeed premeditated. Someone had the audacity to target his son. But that someone couldn't possibly be Haley."Dad, are you so certain it isn't this woman when the investigation is still ongoing?" Keith's voice chilled, "What if it turns out to actually be Haley?""She wouldn't hurt Owen," Ivan looked at him with conviction. "She saved your brother; you shouldn't suspect her."Darkness crept into Keith's eyes.His moth

    Taking a deep breath, he said, "Don't worry, Mom, I'll have someone look into it. I won't let anyone hurt Owen."After she voluntarily donated blood to save Owen, it's unlikely she'd attempt anything against him again anytime soon..." Emily's voice was husky and choked with emotion. "Now that she's gained your dad's trust, I’m sure she'll make her move... Keith, I’m really scared she’ll hurt you or Owen. I’d rather she came after me...""It won't happen."Keith ended the phone call.He turned to his assistant, Russell, and said coolly, “Check out that car accident near the DeRoss Group building. See what that was all about.”Russell nodded, “Will do, Mr. Winston.”He pulled out his phone and started making calls...Keith instructed his driver, "To the hospital."As the car glided smoothly down the road, they hadn't even reached the hospital when Russell received a call from the traffic police.The majority of the time, Maple Street is congested, w

    Keith had been involved in the family business since the age of three.The company under his operation, Transmedia Tech, was a subsidiary that the Winston Group had planned to divest from two years ago.He took over the day before its planned bankruptcy.Now, after a year of shrewd management, Transmedia had become one of the top three most profitable subsidiaries of Winston Group.Keith, having just finished a meeting, felt a nagging unrest.He was usually a calm person, but his current anxiety exposed a vulnerability reflective of a four-year-old child."Young Master, you've pretty much wrapped up all your work for today. Perhaps you should head back and rest?" suggested his young assistant, Russell, with due respect.Keith shook his head.He sensed discomfort.Had something happened to Owen?He was about to reach for his phone to call Alfred when his phone began to vibrate.He glanced at it. The incoming call was from his mother.Ti

    It seemed he didn't really mind the idea of marrying this woman...Haley, with her acute senses, caught Ivan's stare and quickly changed the subject.Her eyes shifted to Owen and she spoke with authoritative firmness, “It might not hurt now, but once the anesthesia wears off, you’re going to be in tears from the pain. You’ll understand then just how terrifying a car accident can be! Owen, if you ever want to see me again, just give me a call. I'll come pick you up myself. If you dare sneak out like you did today, I won't come to see you ever again!”Her face stern, she emphasized each word, her tone leaving no room for protest.Tears pooled in Owen's eyes as he looked at Haley with a plaintive expression, “I won’t ever do it again, Haley... I just missed you too much, I couldn't help myself. I just wanted you to hug and kiss me...”His big eyes were brimming with sorrow, making him look like a forlorn puppy.Haley's heart softened, and she bent down to plant

    Chapter 181Ivan took a seat on the other side of the bed.He stated calmly, "Alfred, get some sports drinks, please."Alfred promptly went to carry out the request.In the hospital room, aside from the slumbering Owen, only the two of them remained, surrounded by the sterile scent of disinfectant.With a muted voice, Ivan said, "Thank you for this. Whatever you need, just tell me.""I have a soft spot for Owen. I was more than willing to save him, and…" Haley's voice faltered, a slight bitterness on her tongue, "he must have snuck out to find me. That's how he got into an accident..."Her voice trailed off, her gaze lowered, shielding all emotions.Ivan paused before saying, "He's really fond of you."A gentle smile curled on Haley's lips.Looking at Owen resting in the hospital bed, she couldn't help but reach out and gently touch his face. She felt an immediate warmth towards him when she first saw him at the airport. Owen kept coming back

    His opened his mouth, about to speak, but his phone began to vibrate in his palm, displaying Alfred's name.The sight of Alfred's name sent a sharp pain through Ivan's heart.Whenever Alfred reached out, it was always a matter of urgency.With Owen in surgery and Alfred calling, could it mean…The typically composed man's fingers trembled, requiring two attempts to tap the answer button."Sir, Owen's going to be alright!" Alfred exclaimed, choked with joy, "The surgery's nearly finished and doctors say he should wake up by tonight if all goes well!"Ivan felt a great relief.He walked briskly towards the hospital, concurrently asking, "How was the blood resolved?"He'd made calls, but a resolution couldn't have come this fast."Sir, you might not know yet, but Miss DeRoss, Owen's aunt Haley — she's got the negative blood type!" Alfred rushed out his words, "When Owen had his accident, Haley was there, she brought him to the hospital, and she volun
