Byron greeted Wendy with a cold nod and took Estelle into the house.Behind them, Wendy looked at them, and a cunning thought flashed through her mind.As far as she knew, Rosalie and Byron had not seen each other since that night.Rosalie must have given up after understanding she could not be with Byron.Since that was the case, Wendy had to grasp the chance and make sure she would get to be Byron’s wife.Wendy did not care even if Byron’s attitude toward her was as cold as ever.Wendy followed them into the house.“Yes?”Byron had sent Estelle to her room and was walking down the stairs as he looked at Wendy strangely.Wendy froze and smiled. “Auntie Melody asked me to visit you and check on your condition.”Meanwhile, Byron had retracted his gaze from her. “I’m fine. Tell her not to worry.”Wendy wanted to say more, but Byron wanted her to leave. “You can leave if you have nothing else you want to say.”Wendy froze. “But…”She could not leave without doing
"I'm sorry, I just... I was thinking about other things, and I accidentally stumbled."Wendy pretended to be apologetic after Mrs. Zora assisted her to the sofa in the living room.Byron stood still behind the two and did not respond after he heard this.Wendy’s heart sank, and she added sheepishly. “Must have been just a tiny sprain. I’ll massage it, then go look for Auntie to tell her about your situation."She smiled at Byron as if trying to ease his worries. She thought this remark would be able to win his sympathy.Perhaps he would let her stay tonight.Unexpectedly, Byron just nodded flatly. Then, he suddenly squatted in front of her.Wendy could not react for a while.After a while, a piercing pain came from her ankle, and Wendy's face suddenly changed."Does it hurt?" Byron grabbed her injured ankle with one hand and asked.Wendy gritted her teeth and nodded.Byron let go. "This should be a bone injury."Wendy's eyes brightened at the man’s words. She tested the wat
Upstairs, Estie waited for quite a while. It was only when she was very hungry did she open the door and walk out. As soon as she got downstairs, she heard that Mean Auntie wanted to stay with them.In an instant, alarm bells rang in the little girl's heart, and she ran to her father's side as quickly as her little legs could carry her.‘Daddy and Auntie Rosalie haven't reconciled yet. If she knows that Mean Auntie is staying at our home, she’ll be even angrier!’Moreover, the little girl feared that Daddy would make Mean Auntie her mommy.The little one stared at her father with her big watery eyes, and her thoughts were self-evident.Byron met the little girl's eyes, stroked her head comfortingly, and turned to look up at Wendy in front of him.Wendy's heart skipped a beat. She knew that Byron’s answer might not be what she wanted."With your current situation, it's best to go to the hospital in time to deal with it. If it gets worse, I won't be able to explain it to my moth
"Daddy!" Estie hurriedly urged when her daddy kept silent for a while. Byron came back to his senses and nodded helplessly to the little girl.Only then did Estie let go of her hand and watch him go downstairs.Downstairs, Wendy waited anxiously.When Byron came down, she was still a little apprehensive.‘The little b*tch deliberately talked to Byron behind my back because she didn't want him to send me to the hospital.’Wendy knew that Byron had always doted on Estie. He even delayed marrying her because of that little b*tch.Now, it was hard to guarantee whether she would have to go to the hospital by herself because of that little b*tch's words.Even until the moment Byron stood still in front of her, Wendy could not calm down."Dr. Miller, I’ll need to trouble you to assist Miss Fuller."Byron turned his head and told the family doctor beside him.Hearing this, Wendy's eyes widened suddenly. She thought that she had guessed right. ‘Byron really doesn’t intend to accompa
At that moment, the couple's faces became ugly.They knew that Byron planned to cancel the engagement, but they did not expect that he would be so indifferent to their daughter.On the phone, Byron had already explained that Wendy might have a broken bone.‘The injury is so serious, yet he doesn’t even want to help her.‘If this was photographed and spread, wouldn't their engagement be just empty talk?’The couple's thoughts went back and forth, and in the end, they compromised."Wendy, what happened? How did you get hurt so badly?" The couple seemed to not have noticed Byron's indifferent attitude. They directed their attention to their daughter with concern on their faces. They naturally took over the doctor's duty.Wendy's inner emotions suddenly magnified at the sight of her parents. She frowned and said nothing.On the side, Dr. Miller hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over. "Miss Fuller accidentally tripped on some steps and hurt her ankle, but it's not serious
As soon as Byron walked out of the hospital, his phone rang.It was the landline at home."Daddy, when are you coming back?"As soon as it was connected, Estie's milky little voice was heard.Hearing this, Byron replied. "I’m already on the way. You should go to bed first. I’ll come and tuck you in later." The little girl agreed and hung up the phone quickly.When Byron returned to the manor, it was already late at night.He did what he promised on the phone. As soon as he entered the door, he went to the little girl's bedroom.Unexpectedly, the little girl was still awake. When she saw him coming in, she pouted in silence angrily.Byron frowned. "Why are you angry?"Estie complained in her childlike voice, "Daddy, you came back too late!"If Daddy was staying with Auntie Rosalie, the little girl would be alright even if her daddy did not come back at all and spent the night with Auntie Rosalie. However, Daddy was with the mean auntie that she disliked. One hour, includin
That night, Wendy was taken back to the Fuller Villa by her parents."You are injured, so don't go out during this time, just stay at home."Magdalene sat by the bed as she looked at her daughter inexplicably.Hearing this, Wendy glanced at her, deeply livid in her heart. "You have thought that I went for wool and come home shorn, and I’d be a laughingstock if this was made known to the public!"Over the years, her parents raised her like a commodity, and they cannot stop thinking about how to marry her off to Byron Lawrence.Wendy also had the same idea.However, when faced with such parents, she felt inevitably disappointed.What's more, they were of no help at all!Magdalene's expression froze slightly, and she was stunned for a few seconds before she responded. "How can you say that about your mother? I cared about you, how are you going to go out if your foot is hurt like this?"Wendy gritted her teeth fiercely, her hands beside her was also clenched tightly.‘I refuse t
Early the next morning, the news of Wendy's injury spread.That morning, Melody called to express her concerns."Wendy, I heard you were injured?"Wendy sat on the edge of the bed, staring at her injured ankle, her face was cold, but her voice was very sweet."It's just an accidental fall. Don't worry, Auntie."Hearing this, Melody frowned. "How did you fall? Didn't you go to see Byron yesterday? Does he know about your injury?"Wendy's tone was a bit awkward. "Auntie, just leave it be...""He knows!" Melody immediately guessed.‘Whenever I asked about the matter between the two of them, every time Byron would just tell me to leave it alone, and now even Wendy started to say the same!’Thinking of this, Melody felt furious. "Tell me, dear, how did your injury happen?"Wendy's eyes flashed with satisfaction when she heard that the older woman had guessed the matter pretty well.She kept silent for a few seconds, on the pretense of embarrassment, and then said slowly, "When I
The immense pain caused Violet to become delusional. Besides the heart-piercing howls, she suddenly burst out laughing maniacally.She bit her lip until her mouth were filled with blood. Her face was grim and distorted and her eyes bulged out of the sockets.She stared at Rosalie viciously and sneered in a sinister way. "Rosalie Jacobs, so what if I poisoned your mother to death? Who made her a b*tch, unwilling to divorce obediently, and kept taking money from Gordon. She isn’t that great! Hahaha...""......" Rosalie's blood boiled. The seventh silver needle appeared in her hand.At this time, Byron quickly walked to her side and grabbed her.‘If my wife is overtaken by her emotions and takes a step forward, she would be a murderer for sure.’He hugged Rosalie, not letting her go any further.Sophie saw her mother in such pain. She stared at Rosalie with red eyes and kept yelling. "Rosalie, how dare you treat my mother like this? I will kill you! I will definitely kill you..."
When Violet heard Rosalie's concrete words, her face was horrified, and her eyes darted quickly."Rosalie, what nonsense are you talking about? When have I ever done something like this? Don't try to slander me!" She nervously argued.As everyone knows, she had fallen into Rosalie’s verbal trap."You haven't done it? Didn't you ask Ethan to help you poison Mama? It's mercury. Just a little bit could affect my mother slowly. Just two or three times a month is enough. The long-term accumulation of toxins was enough to shorten my mother's life to a few years. Ethan was so young then and you are willing to use him. Aren’t you afraid that he would accidentally ingest it?"Rosalie's angry face and hateful eyes made Violet look away in fear. Her body trembled uncontrollably."Violet, you still insist on arguing until now. I really couldn't do anything about you a few days ago. However, I can come to you now, which means that I have enough evidence to prove that you used your good son Eth
The chainsaw roared, and the iron chain was severed in less than thirty seconds, followed by two iron doors which collapsed to the ground.Byron and Rosalie walked in through the iron gate.The frightened Sophie rushed downstairs first. When she saw the couple, she panicked and shouted. "What are you trying to do? Breaking into a private house is illegal. I'll call the police immediately!"With that, she took out her mobile phone and feigned intimidation.Rage shot to the top of Rosalie’s head. She rushed over, snatched Sophie's phone, and smashed it to pieces on the ground.How refreshing to be the bad guy.For the past twenty years or so, Rosalie had been a pro at being a good person. She always suffered losses from being kind.The best way to deal with shameless people was to be even more shameless than them. In this way, there was nothing the opponent could do.Sophie was stunned for a few seconds, but she could not stop Rosalie at all."Where is Violet? Get the hell out n
Mama’s last will intermittently recorded the last three years of her life.When Rosalie finished reading her mother’s last word, the dam had broken, and she burst into loud sobs.The heart-piercing grief lingered in her chest. She kept murmuring under her breath. "Mama, my Mama...hurts so much in her life. She was in so much pain!"She tearfully looked at her husband. At this moment, Rosalie was like a frightened little animal, her entire body trembling helplessly.Byron read the will with her. The typically calm and introverted Byron felt his eyes burning and tears streamed down his face.Immediately, a monstrous anger appeared on his face. He exuded a deadly aura all over. He gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly, "Honey, we must avenge Mama. Violet is not human. She is just a beast clad in human skin!"Rosalie cried bitterly while hugging Byron, inconsolable for a long time.Finally, Detective Carter read the contents of the will and remained silent for a long time.The con
[My dear daughter, my beloved Rosalie, I wonder how many years later will you see this written will? Ten years, or twenty years? Or you may not see it at all."[Darling, Mama loves you very much, I love you too much. So, it is you who gave Mama the courage to accept my fate at this moment. I know very well that my life is slipping away bit by bit, but I don’t feel afraid at all!][However, Mama don’t know why such bad luck happened to you. You were only three years old and just learned to run and jump around, and you’ve just learnt to pronounce the word Mama properly. Despite that, death is around the corner, knocking on my door. Mama feels reluctant, this is such a waste! Mama prays to God, I’m willing to accept anything as long as you live, even if it means falling into hell.][You were suffering from a congenital genetic disorder. I took you to many hospitals and finally found a solution. However, the treatment cost is as high as one million dollars. Mama can't afford this at all
Byron, who has always been calm in dealing with things, felt anxious this time.The car continued to accelerate. There was no time to lose. He needed to verify personally whether the heirloom left by his mother-in-law were really hidden in the frame of the wedding photo.Rosalie also looked solemn, and her heart was beating fast.Violet cared so much about Mama’s heirloom. She was still looking for it even when she could not find it after more than ten years, which shows that this heirloom was of great importance.Perhaps, there was enough evidence in it to prove that Violet harmed her mother.Rosalie truly wanted to know; how did Violet manage to poison her slowly? At that time, she had no contact with Mama at all!In about ten minutes, the car arrived at the Jacobs old house.Early in the morning, Detective Carter still led his bodyguards to search around, knocking on every wall, trying to find some hidden storage space.Upon seeing the eager faces of the young couple, Detect
That voice seemed to unveil Rosalie's dust-sealed memory like an old chest.An image from that year flashed across her mind in an instant.Under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, Mama and Aunt Lou were eating cakes, chatting and laughing over tea. As the sun set, Rosalie came from the kindergarten on the corner of the street, lugging her schoolbag as she rushed home, less than a hundred meters away.Then, she exclaimed. "Mama, I'm home!"At that time, Mama was so healthy. Her eyes were always joyful, and she was as beautiful as an angel.Aunt Lou was also very young at the time, she had just married and had no children. She liked to ask her Mama for advice on family life issues.How wonderful it would be if life could stay that way forever!Unfortunately, everything was ruined by Gordon.Rosalie’s thoughts were raging. It took a long time before Rosalie came back to her senses and told Aunt Lou that she had returned to Coast City, and everything was fine.Aunt Lou continued to
On the second day of the wedding, Mary woke up and habitually thought that it was her home. She was about to go out in her pajamas.Fortunately, Andrius carried her back to bed just as she pushed the door open.Mary woke up from her confusion and realized her new identity, the daughter-in-law of the Quirke family.The husband held her, but suddenly refused to let go. His hands began to wander naughtily.Mary was astonished. They were keeping each other up until late last night. It was only a few hours apart."Is there any custom ceremony that has not been completed? Does your family need us to greet the elders on the first day after marriage?" She suddenly became flustered, and she was short of breath.She wanted to quickly change the subject, so her man would not continue his passionate torment.It would be really embarrassing if they made any noise this early in the morning.Andrius shook his head, and moved his lips closer, wanting to attack.Mary resolutely covered his lip
In the Jacobs’ old family home, Detective Carter kept receiving calls from the bodyguards, and knew the movements of Violet's family like the palm of his hand."Sure enough, it was a bait and switch. On the surface, two cars set off; one came to us and the other was headed to the airport. In actual fact, they escaped from the basement in a taxi. However, they were indeed unable to escape."Detective Carter summarized his updates and reported to Byron and Rosalie.The detective was shocked. The bodyguards that Byron arranged for him had excellent professional skills and strong execution ability. These men were obviously carefully cultivated.Byron nodded calmly.He sighed secretly in his heart. Sophie reacted exactly the same way as Xander Lancer back then, she chose to escape by water.Indeed, travel transportation such as airplanes and high-speed rails have rigid, fixed schedules and are relatively easy to be discovered.Rosalie's mind was not present at all. As long as the hus
