“Mommy...”Nox knew his Mommy was in the hospital ward behind Daddy and immediately ran to look inside.Byron was already heartbroken to see Rosalie in that state. He felt more helpless when he saw the two little ones sad, but he still chose to stop Nox from rushing to his mommy.Desperate to see Mommy, the little one struggled, “I want to see Mommy! Mommy!”Byron did not intend to let go.Those experts could not bear to see the little ones crying.However, even if the two boys went in, they could only lay beside Rosalie and cry. It would not help treat Rosalie even a bit.Lucian was much calmer than his brother. Although he had tears in his eyes, he just quietly stood in place. “What do you need my brother and me to do?”He could guess his mommy must have been in a coma for a long time.Their mommy should have already been in such a state at least from when Luther picked them up from school.Their Daddy must have asked Luther to keep it a secret from them, yet he suddenly or
‘Rosalie, are you really that cruel?’Byron could not help questioning Rosalie silently. ‘The two little ones are crying by your hospital bed. Don’t you hear them? Why aren’t you getting up?’The ward echoed with the cries of the little ones.Byron banged on the wall behind him and strode out of the ward.“How’s it going? Are her brain waves fluctuating?”Byron’s voice was so cold that it scared the experts.If Rosalie did not get up even after the children cried so hard, he would not let the experts who suggested it off easily.Of course, the specialists noticed what was happening in the ward. They were just as anxious to see the boys crying.“President Lawrence, you can come and have a look.”One of the experts stood up and made room for him to look at the fluctuations in Rosalie’s brain waves.Byron bent over to look, only to see that the curve was fluctuating violently.“When you were talking to Miss Jacobs, there were fluctuations in the curve, but they weren’t that str
The experts had serious looks on their faces.One of them, a respected doctor, walked quickly to Rosalie’s bed. He ran a series of tests on Rosalie and finally shook his head helplessly.“What do you mean?”Byron’s voice sounded cold and oppressing.Lucian and Nox stared at the doctor.The expert said, “I just checked, and Miss Jacobs isn’t showing any signs of awakening. When you saw her move her finger just now, it might be a nerve reflex. She’s trying hard and is only one step away from it.”A dead silence fell over the ward.Everyone could only hear Nox’s sobbing sound.Byron frowned and pondered.Only one step away.‘What else does Rosalie care about that I haven’t thought of?’\“Mr. Byron.”Lucian approached and tugged at the hem of his coat.Byron looked at the little one, trying to look gentler than usual.“Can’t you let Estie come and talk to Mommy?”Byron felt as though something was clenching onto his heart.‘Yes, Estie!’He almost forgot that Rosalie valued
Wendy looked anxious as though she was the one who would need to drive Estelle there.Byron’s attitude toward her had been colder since Estelle got bullied at school.These days, Wendy had not even seen Byron at home.She thought she could wait for Byron to be back by using coaxing Estelle to sleep as an excuse.Unexpectedly, Byron was not back home even though it was already late. Instead, he sent Luther to pick Estelle up.Wendy was not planning to give up the opportunity.Unexpectedly, Luther bowed at her indifferently and said, “I’m sorry, Miss Fuller. I can’t disclose to you President Lawrence’s schedule.”Wendy looked at Luther in displeasure.‘What does he mean?’“Don’t forget I’m Byron’s fiancée. Why do you have to hide his schedule from me?”Wendy looked at Luther angrily and questioned him.Luther was not moved. “I know you’re President Lawrence’s girlfriend. I’ll say the same thing even if you’re Mrs. Lawrence.”Wendy was pissed off. “Luther, know your position!”
Luther felt sorry for Estelle upon hearing her request.Through the rearview mirror, Luther could see Estelle staring at him eagerly.Luther could only gulp and force a smile. “Miss Jacobs is with President Lawrence. You’ll see her when you arrive.”Estelle’s eyes lit up in joy when she heard that.Luther could feel Estelle’s joyful mood even if he did not look back.His heart sank upon thinking what Estelle would be facing later.After a while, the car slowly pulled over at the hospital gate.Estelle had already noticed their destination and had been silent since then.Luther did not know what to say.“Here we are, Little Lady. I’ll take you inside.”He reached out to lift Estelle out of the car.However, Estelle jumped from the back seat and ran to the hospital on her short legs.Luther quickly shut the car door and followed behind her.When they were in the elevator, Luther noticed that Estelle’s eyes were red, and he could not bear to watch it.Fortunately, the elevat
Suddenly, someone opened the ward door from the outside.Byron had been suppressing his anger and had nowhere to vent it. When he was about to scold the person at the door, he saw the faces of the few experts.“Quick! Miss Jacobs’ brain waves show signs of waking up!”Several people in the ward were shocked upon hearing that.Lucian was the first to react and grabbed Rosalie’s hand hard, calling her repeatedly, “Mommy! Wake up, Mommy!”Nox followed what Lucian did.Estelle stood by Byron’s side. She was startled for a while before she wiped off her tears and hugged Rosalie’s arm. “Auntie…”The little one called out, but how she addressed Rosalie changed because Lucian and Nox had affected her. “Mommy… Wake up…”The cries of the three little ones filled the room.Byron heard the sudden change in what Estelle shouted, and his heart skipped a beat. However, he said nothing and stood by their side, wanting to see Rosalie wake up.She was going to wake up since the experts said so
Rosalie crouched slowly and lifted her hand to touch the little one’s head.However, she seemed to see the little one smiling at her.Rosalie felt sorry for her and wanted to apologize. However, she could not say a word.“Mommy, go out.”The little one tilted her head. “You can see me when you wake up!”Rosalie was shocked.Her daughter… She died long ago, and Rosalie knew she could not see her daughter anymore if she woke up.However, the little one pushed her anxiously.Lucian and Nox’s cry lingered in her ear.Rosalie hesitated for a long time and chose to stand up eventually. Before leaving, she glanced back at the little girl reluctantly.The little one waved at her.Rosalie smiled reluctantly at her and strode to the door.“Mommy!”The calls of the little ones suddenly became clear!Rosalie slowly opened her eyes and looked at the pale ceiling. Her eyes were wet.“She has regained consciousness. Miss Jacobs is awake!”The experts had been waiting at the door, star
Rosalie was in a daze when she saw Byron.‘Is that man in this state because he’s worried about me?’However, the relationship between them… Byron had no reason to be concerned about her.Byron heaved a sigh of relief.Looking at the startled woman in the hospital bed, he could not help but step forward and stare at her face as if he wanted to see through her.Rosalie found it strange when Byron observed her from so close. She subconsciously wanted to look away.“How do you feel? Do you feel any discomfort?”Byron spoke before she could look away.Rosalie was moved when she heard his hoarse voice. She drooped her eyes to hide her emotion as she said, “I’m not sure. It feels like I’ve slept for a long time.”He frowned deeply and suddenly lifted his hand to touch her forehead.Rosalie frowned. Her mind went blank.Byron’s hand rested on her forehead for a long time.He did not know what was wrong with him. Although he knew Rosalie was poisoned, he still chose to express his
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
