“Stop looking like you’re in love, Kelly Payton! I’ll take care of my husband’s illness. As for you, you should just pay attention to yourself now that you’re infected too!”Rosalie had planned to stay silent.However, Kelly was about to die and still would not give up threatening her husband.When she spoke up to Kelly, there was sympathy in Rosalie’s eyes.What a stupid yet pitiful woman!However, there was still a look of jest on Kelly’s face. She smirked in delight as she shook her head and said with confidence, “Hmph. It doesn’t matter how great your medical skills are, Rosalie Jacobs. There is nothing you can do this time. I don’t believe you would be able to create a cure in three hours. If you want to continue living, you would need to use me to exchange the medicine with Mr. Vanderbilt.”Mary could no longer continue listening to her. Mary sneered instantly. “Ho, I know you won’t believe it, but don’t you realize how calm we are? Use that stupid brain of yourself and think abo
Byron was quick to react as he immediately pulled Rosalie behind him. He reached out and clenched Kelly’s throat.His arms were long and slender, Kelly could only scratch the thin air as curses continually sounded from her throat and she was unable to move an inch forward.With a light push, Kelly stumbled onto the ground like a kite with a short string.However, she roared with pitiful anguish, “I hate you, Byron Lawrence! How can you treat me this way? Do you still have a conscience?”Mary was shocked. She never expected Kelly to become so hysterical in such a short time. She was even acting like she had lost her mind.“Are you crazy, Kelly Paxton?” Mary shouted.“Hahaha, I am crazy… I’m crazy… I love you, Byron Lawrence! I would have dug my heart out of my chest for you if you wanted it! But I’m dirty now… How could you be so heartless? This is the end of the Fuller family…”“You’re just an ex-wife, Rosalie Jacobs. Who do you think you are to take my man from me? I’m Byron Lawrence’
The results for Byron’s test came out after half an hour.His stats looked normal and the medicine he took worked quite well. He stopped coughing altogether.However, he did feel quite dry in the mouth for a while and could not stop sweating.Rosalie quickly reminded him to drink more water. “That medicine will stimulate the body’s immune system and work together to destroy this virus!”“Would it affect the baby?” Byron was a little worried about this.“No, it won’t. This type of medicine would be absorbed directly into the intestinal tract and will phase out after eight hours. I’ll be fine!” Rosalie comforted her husband and later took the medication as well.Mary followed suit and after that, excitedly brought the medicine out to the doctors and nurses.The crisis, which happened in the morning and ended at one in the afternoon, had been completely resolved.Andrius was at the hospital’s entrance communicating with the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention. After talking to them
Early in the morning outside the prison, it was drizzling.Rosalie and Byron were quietly waiting in a Rolls-Royce until the big iron gates began to open slowly.Yves was still in prison uniform when a middle-aged prison guard said, “Behave yourself after getting out and stop making mistakes!”He nodded and a relaxed smile appeared on his lips. “I will, Mr. Zigler. Wait till I get myself a new job and I’ll come see you once I’ve earned some money. Thanks for always looking out for me.”“What’s there to thank me for? Just don’t come back ever again. It’s bad luck! Just go…” The middle-aged prison guard smiled.Yves had always thought that no one would come to pick him up and did not pay attention to the Rolls-Royce.It was until Byron appeared while helping Rosalie out of the car that astonishment appeared on his face.“You’re finally out, Yves Graham!” Byron smiled.He had thought it would be a few more months before Yves would be released, but Yves’ sentence was shortened due to good
“Lucian, Nox, are you alright? It must be painful.” Byron helped up the two boys. He looked anxious and worried as he watched the boys’ knees bleed.He looked like he was ready to commit murder.Estie came over as well to check on her two older brothers. When she saw both of them bleeding, her eyes immediately turned red. She was almost crying.“Byron, don’t let those children get away!” Rosalie said as she ran. She felt like her lungs were about to explode.Those children clearly did that on purpose. She saw it very clearly. There were four of them.A sneak attack with four against two. What a terrible thing to do!Byron had been keeping his eye on those four children. They were trying to escape and disappear into the crowd.When his wife arrived, Byron immediately took action. He gave chase immediately toward where the four children had escaped.“Mommy, come take a look at Lucian and Nox!” Estie shouted at her helplessly.Rosalie’s chest tightened. She went toward Lucian and Nox, and
Daniel was taken aback. “The Lawrence family?”He had just been transferred over from the North and was still not entirely clear on the business connections here.Moreover, he saw no connection between the famous Byron Lawrence of Lawrence Corporation and the person in front of him who looked too young to be Byron.From Daniel’s point of view, every businessman here would always try to get along with him.However, the other parents immediately recognized the three children.“Aren’t those the three genius children we’ve all heard about that just started school here?”“It should be them. A pair of twins and an adorable younger sister. It is them! We’re done for. I heard their parents are not to be trifled with.”“The… The Lawrence family? The reigning family of Coast City, the Lawrence family?”Those parents immediately look shocked with fright. There was fear in their eyes as they looked at Byron and Rosalie.One of them quickly ran over and tugged at Daniel while blinking repeatedly as
Byron turned and went to his three children. He crouched and checked Lucian and Nox’s wounds.“How do you feel? Does it hurt? Tell me what you really feel!” The look in Byron’s eyes had turned softer as he rubbed both Lucian and Nox’s heads lovingly. He also hugged Estie.Lucian and Nox gave each other a look and they nodded. “It does hurt a little, Daddy!”“Good!” A smile appeared on Byron’s lips as he asked the second question. “Do you feel angry?”This time, Nox answered, “Yes, I am! I feel really angry!”Lucian nodded as well. This was what they truly felt.Even Estie pouted and said, “I’m really angry too, Daddy. It’s horrible that they bullied my big brothers!”Byron accepted all his children’s answers. He was not in a hurry to comfort them, but instead, his tone turned grave. “So, tell me, what should be done to make you feel less angry?”The three children immediately looked at each other. They were unable to give an immediate answer.When she saw them that way, Rosalie instant
“It hurts, it hurts…”Zack wailed. There was pain in Daniel’s expression but he did not dare help his son up.When the other children saw how badly Zack fell, it scared them and they had fear in their eyes when they looked at Lucian and Nox.Lucian and Nox stared at their hands when they returned to their parent’s side. They shook their head slightly with stunned look on their faces.When Byron saw them acting this way, he immediately crouched and rubbed their heads.There was a calm look in his eyes as he said, “Remember this, Lucian and Nox, there are many kinds of people in this world. Your kindness must be used on the right people and should not be given to just anybody. When facing unreasonable people, there is no need for you to be reasonable. There is no need for too much mercy!”Rosalie felt a little moved when she heard this.These two boys had grown up with her and were both warm and kind. However, they lacked a certain steeliness in their personalities.If they continued gro
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
