Hugh had always believed the car accident was, as the name suggested, nothing more than an accident.He never imagined Ivan had planned it.If Hugh understood it right, Leslie only married Ivan under his coercion.This realization made Hugh's heart brim with regret. He wondered why he had misjudged Leslie before!To think he believed Leslie would marry another man while he was unconscious when the truth was…Leslie was the one suffering the most.Although Hugh learned the truth, he didn't plan to make it public.He needed to investigate this privately and gather evidence of Ivan's intentional harm. That was the only way he could ensure Ivan faced the consequences.At the same time, he wouldn't let Leslie endure such injustice any longer.Ivan chuckled. "I'm the one who should be questioning why you aren't leaving. Are you that interested in other people's wives?""I'm not interested in that. I just can't stand men who force their wives to suffer in silence." Hugh almost growl
Despite her smile, Harper's gaze was devoid of any warmth."There's nothing between me and Hugh. So, you aren't interrupting anything," Leslie said calmly before preparing to leave.But Harper only laughed at this. "You were practically hugging in the street, and you say nothing is going on?"Hugh, didn't you say you were here on business? What kind of business requires you to hug your ex?""It's not what you think. I just saw a motorcycle almost hitting her, and I…" Hugh started to explain. He needed to clarify this misunderstanding.But before he could finish, Harper interrupted him with a meaningful sneer. "You'll remember today forever."Hugh furrowed his brows in confusion. He was still pondering Harper's words when she abruptly dashed toward the road."Harper!" screamed Hugh.The road outside the hospital was busy with traffic. In the blink of an eye, he saw Harper get hit a few feet away.After the impact, a pool of blood formed on the ground. It was flowing from the wo
Ivan remained impassive. "She's Hugh's fiancée. She has the right to know about her fiancé's whereabouts.""But you deliberately caused the misunderstanding! I didn't come here with Hugh for a date! We didn't do anything to betray her!"Leslie no longer cared that there were other people in the car.She raised her voice and said, "Ivan, how can you be so cruel? Harper is now in the emergency room with her life hanging by a thread."And all of it is because you decided to add fuel to the fire! Yet, what are you doing now?"Don't you feel an ounce of guilt? You only want to make sure that this incident will serve its use as a warning for me."Leslie looked at Ivan's cold eyes through the rearview mirror in disbelief.Although she had never gotten along with Harper, she did not want to see Harper hurt.She wanted Harper to be safe and healthy.She could not believe that Ivan could be so cold-hearted…"What else am I supposed to do? What does her death have anything to do with me
Natalie smiled faintly. "You can go. I can take care of myself."She knew Henry was a busy man. He could not accompany her all the time."Okay." Henry leaned over and kissed her on the forehead. Then, he prepared to get out of bed.Natalie was a step quicker and quickly climbed down the bed. "Let me help you with your clothes."Henry froze as he watched Natalie quickly bring him his clothes. Would she have to take care of him like that every day?Natalie could tell what Henry was worried about.She purposefully lowered her voice and said, "Just listen to me, and let me take care of you. You're not allowed to overthink it, do you hear me?"Henry smiled. "It seems nothing can escape your eyes."After getting ready, the two of them headed down for breakfast. Then, Henry went out.…Charlotte was flocked with reporters after leaving the police station about an hour ago."Excuse me, Ms. Brown. Do you have anything to say about the rumors claiming you to be ruining your family?"
Jennifer stared at the car as tears fell from her eyes.She was full of hatred, yet she had nowhere to express it. She could only lift her hand and slammed it on the ground repeatedly.Soon, she felt helpless and could only stop after her hands became a bloodied mess.But no matter how painful her hands were, it did not distract her from the ache in her heart.It was just as Charlotte said—she did not have a home anymore.Not only did she lose her home, but she had lost her father, the man who had always loved and spoiled her.She had returned home countless times, trying to meet Thomas. However, the bodyguards always dragged her away.She did meet Thomas about two or three times, but he had only treated her as a beggar.Thomas even generously threw a few hundred dollars at her once.Then, he said, "Go away once you've taken the money! Don't come here anymore! It's so unsightly! Do you hear me?"She looked at the money. When she looked up again, she happened to meet Thomas' d
"Ms. Brown headed to the airport about half an hour ago. She said she's going abroad, but I don't know which country she's going to. She did not tell any of us," the butler answered earnestly."What the fuck is she doing?" Jasper placed his hands on his hips and began to pace anxiously.He never imagined the Brown family would end up in such a state.Jennifer had donated everything under the Browns' name, including all their money and assets. How generous of her!That was a lot of money! How could she just donate it all as she wished? It wasn't like money grew on trees!The butler did not dare to make a sound during such a situation. He could only stand quietly by the side."Where's my dad's body?" Jasper tried his best to control his voice."He was sent to the funeral home. He has been arranged to be cremated tomorrow."However, the police had said that we would not be able to hold a funeral for him as he had partaken in illegal activities," the butler said carefully.Jasper
The news made Jasper seem like a ticking time bomb. Henry did not know when that bastard would explode.However, his grudge against the Brown family seemed to be on hold for the time being.One day, Henry found a doctor for Natalie. He had even gone to great lengths to transfer the machines needed to their home to do a B-scan.Natalie was slightly shocked by everything. "What are you doing?""It's for your checkup," Henry explained calmly.Then, he quickly turned and began to give out instructions. "Move these machines to the empty room on the first floor for now.""Alright, Mr. Chase."The workers quickly busied themselves with moving all the machinery."We could have just prepared ourselves and gone to the hospital for the checkup." Natalie never imagined that Henry would spoil her so much.Two days ago, she jokingly asked him what would happen if he accidentally spoiled her too much, turning her into a spoiled brat.Henry smiled faintly and quickly gave her his answer. "Yo
"Mr. Chase, do you want to come over? I think I should tell you in person." There was a hint of fear in Jeff's voice.Henry did not say anything. Instead, he directly ended the call."What happened?" Natalie frowned, feeling slightly worried."Something happened to Harry's family. I need to go and take care of it. You should stay at home. Don't go out, alright?" Henry said.Natalie nodded obediently. She would not cause trouble for him during such moments.Soon, Henry left.When he arrived at Harry's residence, Jeff told him everything that had happened."Just now, Felix was sitting in the living room watching the television. However, the TV began to flash and played the clip of Mr. Harry pushing Ms. Yule down the stairs…""When Mrs. Shirley and I realized, we quickly shut off the TV. However, we were too late. Felix saw everything."No matter how young Felix was, he could still understand what happened in that video. Henry didn't even need to think to know that the clip had t
