Judy had Layla, a newly arrived colleague, follow her deliberately while she entertained. Layla's purpose was to keep an eye on Judy and report her every move to Amelia.At seven in the evening, Judy arrived at the restaurant with Layla and met Hogan. Hogan was approaching forty, unremarkable in appearance, with his hair thinning.Accompanying Hogan were his secretary and other project managers from different companies who had come to discuss cooperation with him. Judy was just one of them.As soon as Judy appeared, everyone in the room turned their attention towards her. Judy was exceptionally beautiful, and the lighting made her complexion even more radiant. Her good looks and figure naturally attracted the attention of the men present."Hogan, hello, I'm Judy from the Meike Group," Judy introduced herself with a smile. "This is my colleague, Layla."Layla responded timidly, "Hello, Hogan."Judy's unique temperament was particularly enticing. Hogan couldn't take his eyes off her, sm
Judy drank some water and leaned against the wall for a moment, then said to Layla, "Let's go inside."The dinner gathering was not yet over, and she needed to secure the contract, getting Hogan to sign the papers."Okay." Layla still seemed meek and obedient.Just as Judy was about to re-enter the room, Louis walked towards them from the other end of the corridor and caught a glimpse of Judy.Louis muttered, "Isn't that Judy?"He was aware that Judy had registered her marriage with Lewis and was quite surprised at the time, but quickly accepted the reality.Louis didn't go looking for Judy, instead, he looked at the room name that Judy had entered and went to find Lewis.Lewis was also at the dinner, so Louis said to him, "Big Brother, I just saw Judy. She's also eating at this restaurant, on the ground floor in a room."Lewis's eyebrows arched slightly, "Anyone else?"Louis truthfully replied, "Yes, she's with a woman too."Lewis wanted to send Judy a message to ask what was going o
Hogan immediately caught on, smiling as he said to everyone, "I'll step out for a moment, you all continue eating."Hogan was in high spirits, his face beaming with the anticipation of what was to come.Exiting the room, he hurried to the adjacent one.Pushing open the door, he found the room pitch black, with the curtains drawn and the lights off.Rubbing his hands together, Hogan said, "Playing hide and seek with me? I like it. Judy, I'm coming, I see you..."He hadn't actually seen her; he was deliberately saying that.His eyes scanned the darkness when he heard a noise behind him. Hogan reached out to grab, but missed."Don't tease me, I'm going to turn on the light," Hogan said as he reached for the switch. As the light came on, he saw Judy trying to leave through the door.Impulsively, Hogan rushed forward and embraced Judy. "Finally got you. Stop playing hard to get, I can't take it anymore. There's no one here, let's have some fun first, and then I'll sign the contract for you
Hogan was thrown out, slamming into the corner of a table and knocking over two chairs as well.Hogan was in agony, howling on the floor.Judy now saw who it was—Lewis.When she saw Lewis, brimming with anger, walk over to Hogan and kick him hard in the groin, Judy was momentarily stunned.That kick from Lewis could definitely incapacitate Hogan.Hogan's screams echoed through the floor as he rolled on the ground, clutching his groin in pain.Only then did Lewis approach Judy, and from her reaction, he knew exactly what had happened to her: "I'm here now, everything's going to be okay."In front of Judy, the fierce Lewis from moments ago instantly became gentle.Louis followed closely behind, and upon entering, before he could even understand what was happening, Lewis coldly said to him: "Give me your antidote."Louis, who also moved in certain circles, always carried some self-defense items when going out, such as an antidote for being drugged.Louis had been schemed against before,
Amelia received the message and was particularly delighted: "What an unexpected turn of events. I only intended to make Judy's difficult, but it turns out her husband is also at the scene, witnessing his wife being tussled with another man. He definitely won't be able to accept that; Judy just wait to be dumped.""Amelia, next time there's something like this, think of me. It's such a waste for a beauty like Judy to be taken advantage of by someone like Hogan," Hayden had expressed regret upon learning that Amelia's target was Judy. He had seen Judy at the company when he visited Amelia before and found her to be quite an attractive woman.Amelia said smugly, "She's just a woman. Next time you want to have some fun, I'll arrange it for you. After Judy has been played with, she's fair game, isn't she? One more man or one less, it doesn't matter.""I'll look forward to it," Hayden said, quite excited at the prospect.Amelia wheeled her chair over and said, "Let's go and take a look. I w
Judy wasn't the first time calling Lewis her husband, but it was the first time she did so in front of so many people.Today, with the situation becoming such a mess, it wouldn't be a secret anymore that she was Lewis's wife. At least not to these people here, her relationship with Lewis was exposed.Of course, Judy was deliberately targeting Amelia. Wasn't Amelia trying to marry Lewis?The word "husband" was very comforting to Lewis.A sense of pride arose in Lewis's heart, being Judy's husband.And for Amelia, those two words were like a thunderbolt.Judy's husband was Lewis?Impossible.Lewis had never been married.Amelia immediately berated her, "Judy, are you crazy? Have you been drinking too much? How can you call Lewis your husband? Do you know who he is? He's...""I'm Judy's husband." Lewis interrupted Amelia's words with a cool voice and held hands with Judy.The wedding rings on their hands were dazzling.Amelia felt like she was going crazy. Judy wasn't married to an old m
Judy didn't ask if there was a drug in the water, but instead affirmed that there must be. This affirmative language led Layla to subconsciously follow Judy's topic of who gave her the drug and who was behind it, forgetting to deny if there was indeed a drug in the water. In her mind, she had already admitted that there was a drug in the water.This was the art of language.Seeing Hogan beaten up like this and even Amelia being more restrained in front of Judy's husband, Layla realized that Judy's husband was a significant figure that she couldn't afford to offend. She couldn't afford to offend either Amelia or Judy. Layla instinctively looked at Amelia, who said in a guilty conscience, "Layla, think carefully before you speak. What's the situation? You accompanied Judy for this reception. Who put the drug in it?"Amelia's words were clearly meant to intimidate Layla from speaking the truth.Layla fearfully asked Judy, "If I tell the truth, will you forgive me? I had no other choice,
In the Royal Estate, Lewis deliberately locked Amelia and Layla in a room together, securing the doors and windows. Sure enough, as soon as the door was locked, there was movement inside.Inside the room, Amelia managed to stand up from her wheelchair and immediately slapped Layla across the face, "Whore, who gave you the nerve to blabber in front of Lewis? I'll tear your mouth apart."Amelia, with her obsessive, spoiled, and arrogant personality, would instantly lash out with violence and profanity whenever she was displeased.Layla didn't dare to fight back and could only endure Amelia's blows and curses. Her hair was yanked out in patches, and her head was bleeding profusely. But Amelia didn't let up, continuing to pinch Layla relentlessly.Layla screamed in pain, but Amelia glared at her fiercely, "Dare to make a sound, and I'll kill you once we're out of here."Layla bit her tongue and endured the pain as Amelia unleashed her fury. Soon, Layla's entire body was covered in bruises
Serina subconsciously glanced at Lewis, who was standing in front of Judy's tombstone. Could it be for him?During these days, Lewis had been very quiet, and his daily routine was to perform the funeral rites for Judy and accompany her on her final journey.He no longer shed tears, but he also had no smile, as if he were just an empty shell.People lined up to offer flowers in their hands, stood in silence in front of Judy's grave for a few seconds, and then walked away, one after another. The funeral lasted until 10 o'clock in the morning.Lewis unexpectedly spoke, addressing his grandmother, "Grandma, let everyone go back. I'll stay here a little longer to keep Judy company."He hadn't spoken for a long time, and when Lewis finally did, his voice was extremely hoarse, and it had changed a bit.The grandmother's eyes were moist, and she nodded in agreement, asking Antonio to see the relatives and friends off.People gradually left, and in the end, only a few people, including Serena,
The helicopter arrived in Birmingham and landed in the backyard of Lewis's villa, where Lewis disembarked carrying the urn."Judy, we're home," he whispered softly, his tone gentle.The others also got off the helicopter, and Antonio, who had already received the news, had prepared a memorial hall at home.After a year, Judy finally returned, but in such a manner.Antonio was waiting at home, and it was only when he saw Lewis holding the urn and getting off the helicopter that he truly believed Judy had passed away, and what Isabella had said on the phone was true.Soon after,The news of Judy's death spread, shocking everyone. How could someone who was fine before suddenly pass away?In the eyes of outsiders, Judy was a person who had survived a shipwreck.Steven also received the news and quickly went to Lewis's house.A memorial hall was set up, with a coffin placed in the hall, and Judy's urn was placed inside the coffin.Lewis invited high monks to perform a funeral service for J
As Hannah said, even if it was a heart-wrenching pain, Lewis would still want to listen. He wanted to know what Judy experienced before her death.Hannah continued, "Judy was afraid of dying because she couldn't bear to leave you and Angel, but we did our best, and the doctors were helpless. She didn't want to die in the hospital; it seemed she was very averse to hospitals. After the doctor said there was no hope, she asked us to take her away, so I took her home, and she passed away in the attic room...""At that time, I promised her to fulfill her last wishes. She couldn't let go of you and Angel, so I went to your side, impersonated Judy, and took care of you and Angel in her place. But I couldn't do it, and in the end, I chose to make you dislike me, to give up on the marriage voluntarily."Hannah paused for a moment and gave a bitter smile, "Judy died when you loved her the most. You will never be able to let go of her for the rest of your life. Judy thought that if you didn't lo
Hannah was worried and wanted to find Lewis.She called the grandmother and only then learned that Lewis was hospitalized in the hospital next door.Taking advantage of the fact that neither Kim nor Guy were in the hospital, Hannah removed the IV needle from the back of her hand and was about to sneak out.However, just as she stepped out of the room, Kim returned from outside: "Sister, where are you going?""I..." Hannah stammered.Kim immediately guessed: "You want to find Lewis? I forbid you to go. You just had surgery. What are you going to do looking for Lewis? He already knows you're not Judy. If he gets angry and hurts you, what then?"Hannah said, "But I can't hide either. Lewis is ill, and everything is because of me. I should go. I owe it to Judy.""You don't owe anyone anything. Judy couldn't have been saved anyway. Even if you hadn't used Judy's heart, someone else would have," Kim said, "Anyway, I won't let you go.""Kim, why are you so heartless?" Hannah got angry, "Judy
Many children nowadays actually understand that the dead are buried beneath the graves.Angel opened her big eyes, which were clear and naive.Such a look, who wouldn't feel heartache upon seeing it?Lewis forced himself to sit up, leaning against the tombstone, his hand stroking it, not knowing how to explain to his daughter.Angel looked at Louis again, "Who is underneath this?"Louis really didn't know how to answer. He glanced at Lewis.Angel's gaze then shifted to Avery, wanting an answer from him.But no one had the heart to tell Angel such a cruel answer.Just when everyone found it hard to speak, Angel reached out her small hand to touch the tombstone and asked softly, "Is my mother buried here?"Angel's words shocked the three of them. How did Angel know?Could it be that there is truly a mother-daughter connection?Seeing that the adults were all silent, Angel suddenly burst into tears, "Mommy, it's mommy, I want my mommy."Angel cried her heart out, and Lewis held his daugh
When a person is at their most helpless and desperate, they hope for miracles, they wish for time to go back.The rain continued to fall, and the temperature at night was very low, so cold that it made people shiver.Lewis lay on the grave like a walking corpse, devoid of any vitality.Louis walked over with an umbrella and held it above his head: "Boss, don't do this. If Judy sees you like this from heaven, she will be upset."Lewis's eyes were open, but it was as if he couldn't see or hear anything. He didn't care about anything or listen to anyone. He just wanted to be closer to Judy by staying close to the grave.God couldn't hear his hysterical cries or see his heart-wrenching pain."Boss," Louis crouched down and persuaded him, "The rain is getting heavier, let's go back first."Lewis's eyes slightly shifted, finally finding a focal point: "Judy is afraid of the cold and the dark. I can't leave her alone here. I need to accompany her.""Boss, I know you're in a lot of pain, but
Isabella's face showed sadness, "Lewis definitely can't handle it. How can a person endure the loss of their loved one twice?"Isn't that like rubbing salt into a wound?"If he can get through this, then we won't have to worry in the future. But if he can't..." The grandmother didn't finish her sentence.Everyone knew the implications of what could happen....Cemetery.The dimly lit cemetery was quite eerie, and someone with a timid nature would probably be terrified to visit.The weather changed abruptly, and a light drizzle began to fall.Lewis, with Judy on his mind, stumbled towards Judy's tombstone after getting out of the car.There were only a few lamps in the cemetery, and one of them happened to be pointing in the direction of Judy's tombstone, making it easy for Lewis to find it at once."Judy, Judy!"Lewis was too eager and overwhelmed with grief. When he saw Judy's tombstone, the sorrow in his heart surged like a floodgate being opened, pouring out. He was walking too qui
The grandmother sighed, "Lewis found out about Judy's passing and couldn't bear the blow.""Lewis knows?" Serina was astonished, "And you all knew too?"Louis was surprised, "Serina, you knew about it early on?"Serina was among the first to know."Yes, Hannah told me before," Serina said, "I was worried that Lewis wouldn't be able to handle it, so I didn't dare to tell him. How did he find out?""Paper can't wrap up fire," Louis said, "Once Hannah fell and was hospitalized, it was impossible to keep it a secret.""Then when Lewis went out just now..." Serina immediately became worried, "What if something happens to him, or he gets the wrong idea?"Avery said, "He probably went to the cemetery to see Judy."The grandmother quickly said, "Louis, go to the cemetery right away and keep an eye on him. Don't let him do anything foolish.""Okay, grandma, don't worry, I'll go there now," Louis assured her.Louis and Avery went together.Serina took the grandmother back to the hotel first, wh
Lewis was emotionally out of control, looking at Hannah's face, he wished he could peel off her skin.That was the face of his wife.He wished he could dig out her heart, for it belonged to his wife.Hannah was unworthy, unworthy of possessing everything that belonged to Judy.If it weren't for this heart, how could he have been deceived and confused, mistaking Hannah for his wife? All the familiarity that Hannah gave him was because of this heart.Angel recognized Hannah as her mother, and that was also because of this heart.In Lewis's eyes, Hannah was the murderer, one of those responsible for Judy's death.Hannah did not defend herself; she knew that Lewis was in a state of rage and would not listen to anything.No one could accept such a thing.Lewis wanted to strangle Hannah, but looking at that face, he couldn't bring himself to do it; it was no different from killing Judy himself.The people outside the room couldn't see what was happening inside, but they could hear it.Reali
