Juelz was shocked at Marvin's solemn face. When he came back to his senses, he sneered, "When did it happen? That was such a long time ago. I was only maybe seven or eight years old. I occasionally spotted this in my father's office. Why, do you think my father is the man behind Melanie's organization? Are you stupid or just naïve? Don't forget, my parents died in a car accident when I was twelve years old. I heard that Jeremy was the one behind it, but it's hard to find the truth about anything, so who knows?" "All in all, my father has been dead for a very long time. It is impossible for him to be a drug dealer in Jenciga." Every single word from him was filled with mockery and sarcasm. Marvin didn't care for Juelz's sarcasm. This was no big deal to him. After all, he had been on countless anti-drug missions, all year round and has witnessed several people meet their bloody ends. He didn't care whether he won or lost in a verbal discussion. In life, apar
Faced with Dorothy's inquiry, Juelz hesitated for a moment, unsure of how to reply. Credence was in critical condition due to his severe injuries. He was still undergoing surgery in the emergency room, especially on his brain. The doctors said that there were too many blood clots on his brain nerves. One wrong move was enough to turn him into a vegetable. He would end up just like his father. He would either be asleep forever or die on the operating table. All in all, the results weren't great. Juelz didn't know how to tell Dorothy for the time being. With her extremely weak and fragile mental state, it was simply impossible for her to bear such heavy news. If this wasn't dealt with appropriately, the child, which they had spent so much effort to save, might be endangered again. "I don't know too much about his current condition. I was only focused on you, your child, and Belle." Juelz slowly retracted his arm which was around Dorothy. He walke
Dorothy walked to the operating table one step at a time. White light shone brightly above her, it made her feel uneasy. The whole room was silent. She could only hear her heartbeat and it was beating unusually hard. The only other sounds were from the machines monitoring Credence's condition. Red lights flickered continuously and made ticking sounds. Dorothy was standing beside the operating table. She slowly lowered her eyes and stared at Credence who was wrapped in a white quilt. He wasn't moving at all, only his face wasn't wrapped in the quilt. He wasn't saying anything either. He looked like he was already dead. After taking a few deep breaths, Dorothy stretched out her hand and gently opened a corner of the quilt. Her eyes slowly went down along his body. Through the lights, she noticed that his hospital gown had been rolled up, exposing the mottled blood on his arm. Apart from the blood, there were also bits and pieces of grass and dirt on hi
Dorothy had been unconscious for two straight days. She was barely up for two hours before she was sent to the operating room for emergency treatment. Every minute and second was crucial for her survival. Germaine waited outside at the door of the operating room. She anxiously paced back and forth. She sighed. Dory was extremely weak, yet she still worried about Belle and Credence. If this continued, how was her unborn child going to survive? When she came back to her senses, she immediately snorted. She told herself not to think about such things. She was currently worried about Dorothy's safety and didn't dare leave her, but she was also concerned about Belle, who was back at the ward. She had been sleeping for even longer periods now. Throughout the entire morning, she had only eaten half a bowl of porridge for breakfast before falling asleep again. She hadn't woken up since. As for Credence, she didn't know about his current situation. So many tr
Germaine looked at Jeremy's familiar face. The face that placed her in so much pain. She didn't expect to meet him again so soon. Ever since he bought the house, she had visited him more than once. She was very familiar with it. However, this time around, her feet seemed to be weight down by lead, and every step she took was incredibly difficult. Jeremy came out of the bathroom and glanced at her. He smirked. "Germaine, I told you that you'd come begging for my help sooner or later." "Who's going to beg..." Germaine widened her eyes in anger. Just as she was about to retort, the doorbell rang. Jeremy sat on the sofa and crossed his slender legs. He then placed a cigar between his lips. He smiled and laughed evilly. "Ignore that! Germaine, tell me, what do you want from me?" After being interrupted by him, Germaine recalled why she came to see him. She hesitated for a moment, lowered her head, and turned around to stare at Jeremy who was sitting on th
Wilson had just finished sending off the bone marrow donor for Belle to Juelz before he hurriedly left for the elevator. As he passed through the service hall, he suddenly saw Germaine lying feebly on the ground in front of him. He was so scared that he gasped, "Miss Germaine, what's wrong?" After that, he ran over in a hurry. He didn't have time to consider whether this was the right thing to do. He reached out and grabbed Germaine's slender arm and pulled her up. He noticed how red her face was even though she had fainted. He guessed that she had fallen into a coma, so he quickly picked her up, carefully carried her on his back, turned around, and rushed into the elevator. The elevator rose and descended several times before it finally reached the second floor. Wilson wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead and quickly carried Germaine to the emergency room at the end of the corridor. Along the way, he happened to bump into Juelz, who was also in a hurry. Ju
She said, "A woman." Dorothy bit her lip, her eyes were filled with complicated emotions. "Germaine, Jeremy sent Rosalie over. After dropping her off, Juelz and Mr. Stanton immediately arranged for a bone marrow examination. Her bone marrow is a match for Belle's. This means that Belle can be cured." "What the f*ck? How could this be?" Germaine widened her eyes, and her face hardened. She was speechless at the news. "Only Rosalie, that b*tch, could cure Belle after we've been searching for so long. Is this good fortune? Or is it just an ill-fated destiny?" Dorothy smiled wryly as well. "Perhaps... it's because Rosalie owes me so much. In the end, she will have to use her bone marrow to repay me." After confirming that Belle was safe, Germaine seemed to be at ease. She raised her eyebrows and smiled wryly. "Dory, Rosalie has a dark mind, she's schemed against you multiple times. She almost killed you and Belle. I feel that since she is in your hands, you should s
Dorothy pushed the door open and walked in. She saw Rosalie tied onto a small chair with some strong rope. She couldn't move at all. Her face was pale, and her eyes were filled with anger and hatred. Her lips were pale, and her face looked distorted. It was obvious that she wasn't doing well. Rosalie heard the creaking sound of the door being opened. She slowly raised her head and saw Dorothy entering with a huge belly. She relaxed for a moment but soon came back to her senses. Her bloodshot eyes were cold and filled with jealousy and hatred. "Dorothy, you're as stubborn as a cockroach. I couldn't kill you six years ago, and now six years later, Jenciga's top killer, Melanie, couldn't kill you either..." "I know, you're here to see me suffer. Ever since I was young, I have always wanted to compete against you. I wanted to prove that I was better than you, because I was the noble lady of the Fisher family. Then the two of us fell in love with the same man." "At f
Dorothy and the group didn't buy plane tickets. Instead, Credence used his insane wealth to charter a private jet for them to fly straight to Monticello. Ten hours later, Dorothy and the others arrived at a warm city in the south of Monticello from Talco City, where the north wind whistled past. When she got off the plane, Dorothy felt dizzy. Credence held her in his arms as he gently guided her forward. When she turned around, he saw Yezoo's kind smile, as well as Ysabelle's cold, fake smile. Dorothy suddenly felt uneasey. She lowered her head, pulled back her hair that was hanging from her ear, and asked Credence, "If we really expose her true intentions, do you... do you think that my father... wouldn't be able to accept it?" After getting along with each other for the past few weeks, Dorothy could tell that Yezoo really loved Ysabelle wholeheartedly. He didn't detest her for having worked in nightclubs before this. She concluded that Yezoo was very att
Dorothy looked at Ysabelle, who was standing by the door. She had a bad feeling. She felt that Ysabelle gave off a different vibe compared to Yezoo's kindness. This seemingly noble lady may be her biological mother, but she still felt that something was off about her for some reason. Credence noticed that Dorothy's expression had suddenly soured. He followed her gaze and saw Ysabelle standing with a group of ladies. He immediately pushed the wheelchair to the door and spoke politely but in a somewhat distant manner, "Ysabelle, how long have you been there?" "Not long! Credence, as you can see, Yezoo has hired these nannies for Dorothy. I'm here to see if you need anything else." Ysabelle smiled. The smile on her face was somewhat ambiguous. "I have already arranged for some other people to take care of my wife!" Credence frowned and continued, "However, I've yet to call them over for the time being because Dorothy is still weak." "Well, since you 've already arr
Dorothy recognized this woman who had a sexy body and a pleasant face. She had a good impression of Minnie. She heard Credence mention her a few times from time to time. It seemed like Jonathan was pursuing her. She didn't know how that was going. However, seeing as Jonathan liked to tease Minnie and call her names, she guessed he had little to no chance of winning her over at all. Dorothy slowly turned her head and looked outside the door. She said softly, "I'm fine. I don't need your help right now. My child was only three pounds heavy when he was born. I want to know how he's doing now, and my daughter as well. Her name is Belle. Yesterday, she had a bone marrow transplant operation. The doctor told me that the operation was successful, but I fainted after giving birth to my baby. I don't know how my daughter is doing." Minnie hadn't slept all night. Not only was she looking after Dorothy, she had a hunch that Dorothy would ask these questions right after she woke
Jonathan had a hunch about what was going on. He had been following Credence closely. He stared at Credence's every move with his burning eyes, waiting for the first sign of his weakening. The special drug from Monticello that had been injected into him would last for five hours at most. Credence's body was strong enough to hold on until now. He was able to last for the full five hours. At that moment, Jonathan saw Credence's hands slowly let go of the bed's railings. He was falling backward, Jonathan quickly ran towards him like a gust of wind. He frowned and supported Credence's back. "Credence, hold on, you need to hold on! You mustn't be a cause of concern right now. Dorothy has just given birth. She's so weak that a gust of wind is enough to make her collapse. If she still needs to worry about you, how long do you think she'll last?" The moment he made contact with Credence, Jonathan keenly examined his hands. Credence's muscles and bones seemed to be falling apa
"What's the matter? Why isn't the baby crying?" Dorothy's voice was hoarse, and she looked very worried. She remembered when Belle was born, she wasn't as quiet as this. Her cries were so loud it almost caused the delivery room to collapse. When they heard her loud cries, almost everyone assumed that Belle was a naughty little boy. Instead, she was an adorable and naughty girl. Perhaps she had suffered too much pain and torment when she divorced Credence, and all that despair had affected her in the womb. As a result, when Belle was born, her body was in a poor condition, and she often had to go to the hospital for medicine and infusions. Later, she was diagnosed with leukemia. Fortunately, in the end, Jeremy was kind enough to hand Rosalie, who had matching bone marrow to Belle's, over to them so that they could save her life. Dorothy was elated at the thought that Belle was going to recover. Since Belle's illness could be cured, this little b
Inside the delivery room, Dorothy was given an anesthetic. However, she didn't know whether it was because her nerves were too thick or if the anesthetic didn't have much of an effect on her body. She was still very conscious, and she could very clearly feel the pain. Her stomach felt heavy and was in extreme pain. She felt as though the injection was given to someone else and not her. After struggling for over an hour, she was in so much pain that she had almost turned mad, her mind was in a chaotic state. Her face was as pale as a piece of paper, and she was lying on the delivery bed with sweat all over her body. Her breathing was weak. Sometimes she could breathe properly, sometimes it was difficult. The smell of blood lingered in the air. The attending female doctor continued to cheer her on, "Mrs. Scott, the child hasn't come out yet. Hold on, hold on for a little while longer." Dorothy nodded. As soon as she responded, she suddenly felt her stomach b
When she saw a familiar man rushing inside, Dorothy, who was sweating profusely, and was in so much pain that her vision had gone blurry, thought that she was dreaming. Her pale lips trembled greatly, and her eyes were dull as she looked straight ahead. "Credence, why, why are you here? Your injuries..." Before she fainted, she clearly remembered hearing Jonathan shouting loudly at him, telling him that his body was on the verge of collapse. Where was his wheelchair? Why wasn't anyone helping him push his wheelchair in? He should have gone back to his wheelchair, but why was he suddenly standing in front of her again with such a straight and domineering posture? Dorothy's heart became anxious. She was worried about Credence's body, as well as the child in her womb. Her face turned extremely pale as if she had been thrown into an ice cellar. Her entire body was cold. She was wrapped in two thick quilts as she dealt with the immense pain and shivering cold. The te
Credence raised his hand and massaged his stiff neck. He held that posture for a long time as he stared at the white wall that was connected to the delivery room. His neck was as stiff as a board. It felt numb, sore, and was quite painful. But the pain was nothing to him. He could tolerate it. But on this day, the strain from the gruesome rehabilitation training had begun to spread from his arms to his thighs, torso, and gradually, his entire body. It felt like his muscles were being stabbed with a knife. It was so painful that he, a man who used to train in the special forces, almost couldn't bear it. It was especially painful now that he was standing firmly beside Dorothy as they waited for Belle's bone marrow transplant surgery to end. At 6:30 in the morning, he forced Jonathan to inject him with a stimulant. It was an extremely strong one that could revert his body back to a normal state for a short period of time. However, there were certain rules to
Germaine grabbed the frame of the door and slowly walked out of the toilet. Her face was pale and her body was covered in a cold sweat. She looked like she had just stepped out of a swimming pool. She was wet and sticky all over. During the past month, she had been so worried about Dorothy and Belle's health. She hadn't eaten or slept well for several days, which caused her to have stomach pain and constipation. Every time she went to the toilet, she would be constipated for over half an hour. She tried out all kinds of solutions such as holding her breath, which nearly cost her life. A while ago, while she was waiting outside Belle's operating room, she felt unbearable pain in her stomach and rushed to the bathroom. After over half an hour of torment, she was finally done. Just as she was about to pull up her trousers and leave, she heard someone walk in with high-heels. Then, the woman who walked in closed the door and made a phone call. As soon as the woman s
