Chapter 161 Driven by Frustration

As soon as he arrived at the mansion, Ryuk and Brian were already waiting for him at the gate; apparently, they weren't in a good mood, and there was no reason to be after what had happened.

"Well... I hope you're at least lucky enough to cheer her up enough to eat something," Ryuk suggested.

"Ask the housekeeper to take the meal to her," he ordered as they walked into the mansion. He climbed the stairs alone and headed to the room he already knew.

Upon reaching the door of her room, he entered silently, frowned at the sight of the empty bed, while remembering the first time he had come there to talk to her and smiled at the memory of the terrible relationship they had.

"Where is she?" he whispered, looking around the room until she came out of the bathroom. "A familiar scene..." he murmured, realizing that she hadn't changed at all since she left the mansion; she was still apathetic and ill.

As soon as she saw him, she recoiled and returned to the ba

    Chapter 162: Proving Their Own MedicineAs planned, on that night, one of the Leblanc brothers, Ryuk, and Richard traveled out of town towards Taylor's location by helicopter, which was only a few hours' journey. Jayden would take care of capturing Mr. Mouret, and Brian would handle Emma. It wasn't difficult for Jayden, who used a tranquilizer and apprehended Mr. Mouret. Brian, on the other hand, warned Emma's father to attend a meeting in the president's office just before he entered the elevator. Then, he pulled Emma into the elevator, taking her to the basement."No use screaming, everyone will think you're crazy," he whispered, staring at the camera in the elevator."I'll report you. The cameras will prove that I left with you against my will," she asserted, struggling."They're turned off. You're in my company, and the owners have control, did you forget?" he asked with a sly smile. Emma stood still as her stomach churned with fear upon realizing the malice in this man.Once they

    Chapter 163: Emma's PunishmentEmma stared at Richard in fear and shook her head negatively. In a panic, she thought about screaming, but it seemed like nothing would help there."I... I was just trying to save my marriage," she confessed, lowering her head, showing resignation."You, on the same night, spent the night with me and my brother, and you were trying to save your marriage?" Richard asked, laughing skeptically. She looked at him, then, seriously. "You and that woman were the easiest women I've ever seen in my entire life. One claimed to be super in love, and the other is married, but both are needy and easily swayed by words. Well, let's say I've never met any woman who was different.""You used me, you deceived me..." Emma lamented."Yes, and what I do, I have fun. You didn't do anything you didn't want to," he asserted, getting up and picking up a remote control from the table. He pressed a button, and the dark wall became transparent, revealing Taylor and security guard

    Chapter 164: Family and Their Troubled Relationships"Didn't you think you were too harsh on her?" Jayden asked as he followed Richard into his private office."What's going on with you and Ailda? This woman spends years doing harm and even tries to kill me..." he commented cynically. "She's one of the reasons I wasn't available for my wife. If it weren't for that, she would be fine and by my side, I guarantee you.""Taking that into consideration..." Jayden murmured, feeling embarrassed."Just let her suffer enough, I won't pity her. I know if I were dead, she'd be celebrating. The pain she's feeling is still nothing compared to what happened to my marriage and my life.""I understand you're full of resentment. You're right about all of this. In fact, I apologize for trying to intervene for such a bad woman. For a moment, I felt sorry for her," he concluded, then left Richard alone, heading to the garden, still lost in thought.The day seemed to be ending well. Richard finally took s

Is that why you have that look, or is it because the police downstairs are saying you're being detained, and not just you," he announced, glaring at his security guard."What are you saying, father?" she asked, swallowing hard."That's what you heard, you two are being accused of kidnapping, since when?" he asked, grabbing her aggressively with the intention of hitting her, but Mouret intervened and pushed Carlson, who fell to the ground."Sir, I apologize, I said your daughter wasn't feeling well, why would I want to hit her now?" he asked, showing insecurity while Emma's father eyed the two of t

    Chapter 166: Suspected Pregnancy?Richard followed the entire trip in thought; sometimes, Aloury's words echoed in his head. "Have my own baby?" he pondered in his mind, considering the idea as he remembered the time with his forged family.The next day, the scandal involving Elizabeth was already hushed up again, but this time the entire Campbell family was exposed. Everyone was talking about how cruel the family was to mistreat a weakened girl, and how much Elizabeth had sacrificed by entering the house while Richard was missing and had been taking care of the girl who was getting better. Nobody knew who Aurora was, but now they had an idea of her existence from the photos Emma asked to post without censoring the girl's face.After everything calmed down again, Richard finally went to visit the Leblanc mansion."You've been up to quite a lot," Ryuk commented, greeting Richard as he passed through the gate. "Seems like you're standing tall again, being a pain like you used to be, nob

    Chapter 167: "The Child Isn't Mine."Gaby was already anxious, pacing back and forth while waiting for the result."Heavens... does a pregnancy test take this long?" Gaby wondered, knocking on the bathroom door once again.Elizabeth held the test result in her hands, staring fixedly at the result that made her heart flutter and want to leap out of her mouth. Then, she looked at her reflection in the mirror and smiled."Yes... we're going to have our own baby..." she celebrated excitedly alone in the bathroom."And then?" Gaby asked as soon as she opened the door, but her expression already said it all.Both of them hugged and jumped around celebrating. "You two have to get married soon, I can't believe you're going to be a mother now and form a beautiful family with that guy who, by the way, is not bad at all," Gaby commented."Oh... I won't lie, I'm already thinking about the nursery, the clothes, this is going to be so amazing, I know Richard will be excited.""Are you going to tell

    Chapter 168: Just Say He's Yours.Richard could barely meet Elizabeth's gaze; his heart felt like it had stopped, and nothing seemed to make sense anymore."Are you saying you're not capable of fathering a child?" he asked, eyebrows raised."Unfortunately, it's one of the side effects of the medication, so this baby isn't mine.""If it's not yours, whose is it? Are you really telling me this child isn't yours?" she asserted, annoyed."This isn't just my assumption, but facts speak for themselves; unfortunately, it's not mine.""Richard!" she shouted skeptically. "This baby is yours.""Elizabeth!" he asserted, grabbing the ultrasound and his phone. "The date here matches the period when we met at that shack, but also... a few days later, you were kidnapped, and..." He pressed his lips together and squeezed his eyes shut; it was so painful for him. "This baby has little chance of having my blood..." he lamented, his gaze apprehensive on her."This baby is yours; it's impossible for it t

Gaby asked, confused."Richard doesn't believe that my baby has his blood," Elizabeth explained."That bastard, is he suggesting that you ended up getting pregnant by that damn guy?" Gaby asked skeptically."Yes... he doesn't believe it's his child, even when I begged him to believe me. Even though it sounds crazy, I believe in my intuition. I didn't get pregnant by that bastard, but Richard doesn't believe me," Elizabeth lamented, too weak to stand up."Let's go home, please!" Gaby pleaded, trying to help her up, but Elizabeth pushed her away and continued sitting on the floor in a pitiful manner, crying.Gaby needed help, so she called Jayden."I need you to come help me with Elizabeth, but don't tell anyone about this," she sent the message, and Jayden immediately confirmed."I'

Richard and Elizabeth were marrying again, this time officially and grandly, so that everyone could witness this union and celebrate.After so many events, walking down the aisle to meet the man she loved was priceless. As her father led her slowly as if wanting to savor her arrival at the groom."Father?" whispered Elizabeth upon hearing her father's slight sniffle and realizing he was almost crying." Isn't this the second time I'm getting married?"That wasn't a wedding, it was a mistake of your father, right? But now I'm seeing my daughter really getting married, to someone she loves, I'm just a grandfather now." declared Zeus, holding back tears.

When you don't talk about the devil, he shows up anyway, doesn't he?" he asked seriously.The twins, in turn, got up and went downstairs together, barely noticing that the Leblanc brothers followed them while smiling and chatting."What are they talking about?" whispered Brian. Then, they subtly approached when the twins sat at a table in the cafeteria and stealthily listened."You shouldn't think about it, it was right to throw those coats away at that moment. Besides... Think about it, do men like them have anything good to offer? You saw, they attract the attention of all women all the time." she commented with disgust."But isn't that a good thing?" asked Brian, whispering, astonished."True, you know, men like that are after every woman they can find. There's no value in that, and I say this because they kept staring at us the whole time. We're nothing but toys,

    Chapter 207: A Pregnant Woman in a Scorpion NestShe rested her head on those wooden planks, holding her belly, thinking she would be alone at that moment. Besides the risk she was taking by being in an old house in a forest, it was obvious that there were insects and wild animals around. So, she tried to stay still, even more so when she saw an unpleasant insect just inches away, making her spine tingle. After all, how many more were there? She closed her eyes in terror. It seemed that under that house had become a shelter for scorpions. So, she even tried not to breathe, even with panic.At such a critical moment, she truly thought she was going to die, until she heard the door of that old house open abruptly."Oh Heavens... He never fails..." she sighed in relief."Stay still!" Richard asserted upon seeing the scorpions crawling over Elizabeth."Save me... Please..." she pleaded, holding her breath."It's okay... Just don't move." he said, keeping calm and carefully removing the sc

    Chapter 206: A Dangerous and Relaxed WalkElizabeth was already nine months pregnant, and with each passing day, she became more anxious. It wasn't because she eagerly awaited the moment to see her daughter, but rather because, after months in that mansion, even with so much entertainment, she was eager and longing to go out and take her last walk alone.The twins were wandering around the mansion's premises, and as usual, they always went to see Elizabeth."You can come in," announced Elizabeth when the twins knocked on the door."Are you going somewhere?" the girls asked, a bit confused to see her already dressed and drying her hair."I'm thinking of making a brief visit to an old place," she said thoughtfully."You're not thinking of visiting someone, are you?" Kemilly asked suspiciously."What are you talking about?" Elizabeth asked, confused."We heard that Taylor is paralyzed, unable to move anything from the waist down. It's a pity for someone so young and handsome.""Why would

    Chapter 205: Visiting my former marriageDuring that same period, Taylor was now living with his mother. She took him to her home, even though it was a simple place. Now he had to accept that this was his fate, being completely ignored by his father, who didn't even visit him. Coralie now sat daily in a chair in front of Taylor's bed and dedicated herself to feeding him."Do you know I can feed myself, right? Why do you keep doing this?" Taylor asked, annoyed."And I want to take care of my son, as I never could before," she grumbled as he refused to eat."You don't have to, just leave and let me die. We can't even live in this place, no money, no life, nothing. That bastard who claims to be my father only defends his own interests.""I'm here. Besides, I know how to get money, so don't worry.""How?""Let's just say I made a great friend, even when I was practicing evil," she smiled tenderly. "At least she says she never made a mistake when she chose to trust me.""I abandoned you. S

    Chapter 204 - Ambitious and InsistentAs soon as the girls received Elizabeth's message, they didn't think twice before rushing to meet their mother and uncle to share the news and their decisions at that moment.Richard was gathered in the garden with his sister Rayssa and Aloury. The girls talked to their guardians and asked for permission to go with Elizabeth."How come Elizabeth asked you two to go with her?" Richard asked skeptically."Actually, we asked her. We believe we can learn more from someone like her.""Did she say where she's going?"The girls shook their heads negatively."No, actually she said she didn't want you to know.""What am I to her? Is she always going to be avoiding me? Does she think it's fair while dragging my daughter everywhere?" he grumbled annoyed, leaving the twins confused."What do you mean? But if it was your son, why did you let Taylor bother her so much?"At that moment, Richard averted his gaze, showing shame."At first, he implied that baby was

Rayssa asked, leaning on Richard's arm as he escorted her."You can be sure, just the two of us was a bit lonely.""I heard she married that man, now that I'm back, I'll have to face a divorce while her marriage will be annulled," she sighed thoughtfully."Indeed, it seems our family has a karma related to marriage annulment.""Why? Speaking of which... Elizabeth is your wife, right? Why didn't you bring her?""It's a long story, actually, a story so far-fetched it might take days to know it all," he suddenly commented, remembering the time he was kidnapped.He smiled awkwardly at the thought that it was his grandfather who did that; he was now sure that Rayssa and Aloury's encounter was more dramatic than expected, filled with Aloury's remorse and regret, now that she was lucid. She had awakened from

Emile nodded in agreement to what Kemilly indicated by looking towards the grand entrance, then turned to his sister."Let's take you, since you can't walk...""No!" Kemilly asserted, using all her strength, pulling her sister and running into the hospital, leaving the two men stunned."What's going on?" Brian asked, furrowing his brow as he watched the girls struggling to run."Interesting, I expected them to jump into our arms instead of running past us..." "Oh... I guess we're quite presumptuous, but perhaps there are really tough women out there in the world," Brian commented, interrupting his brother and suppressing a laugh."Did they make it seem like a game?" Ryuk asked, sliding his thumb over his chin with a light smile, much like Brian.The twins ran to Elizabeth's room, finding her things already packed, feeling disappointed to see her leaving."You're leaving wi

If you think she's not yours, I don't want you to assume a responsibility that isn't yours," she said calmly, not even looking at him."Even if she doesn't have my blood, it doesn't mean I can't love her as a legitimate daughter, Liz... Don't keep rejecting me..." he tried to hold her hand, but she pulled away."Excuse me," Eliza entered the room, interrupting the conversation."I'll let you two talk..." Richard announced, albeit unwillingly."Why are you treating him like this?" Eliza asked, concerned."Because he's stubborn. Clearly, he's doing this out of pity. He wants to accept this child not because he loves me or loves this child, but because he feels sorry for everything I've been through. But the truth is, I've realized that nothing happened between me and Taylor.""What do you mean?" Eliza asked, intereste
