Chapter 1470Mrs. Brown's face darkened. She glared at Ada and then smiled at Edwin. "Mr. Atherton, Ada is spoiled. I hope you don't mind her.”"Ada is straightforward. I like that." A shrewd look flashed across Edwin's eyes. He beckoned Lucas.Lucas immediately gave the gift he had prepared in advance to Mrs. Brown.Edwin had a smile and said, "I hope my visit didn't disturb you. I heard you like Lewis Guthur's paintings. A client gave me a piece of his painting the other day, so I brought it to you."Mrs. Brown's favorite painter is Lewis Guthur, but most of his paintings on the market were fake. His original works were hard to see.Hearing that Edwin would give her a painting by Lewis Guthur, Mrs. Brown showed an expectant look. "You have a painting by Lewis Guthur?"Edwin raised his eyebrows and replied, "Yes, but I'm not interested in paintings. I can't tell if it's authentic or not. I have heard that you have a good taste for paintings, so I am ready to learn from you. '
Chapter 1471"I believe I’ve helped Patrick a lot. Now he's a popular actor in Sapphire City. Even though that's not all because of me, Eclipse Worldwide Entertainment has invested a lot in him. I wonder what Patrick told you to make you hate me so much," Edwin said nonchalantly, throwing the question to Ada. He made it sound as if Patrick was talking a lot of gossip behind his back. Ada's eyes went wide with anger! "Whatever, I hate you!" Ada spat. She wanted to leave, but she was worried that Edwin would ask her mother about Joanne. Then Edwin would know about what they were trying to hide from him, so she had to stay, though reluctantly. Mrs. Brown cast a blaming glance at Ada. "Ada, you are very rude. Edwin, please don't mind her." Ada was speechless. 'Is she my mom?' ... Meanwhile, Joanne, who was staying in the guest room in the backyard, received a message from Ada. [Edwin is so shameless. He coaxed my mom into letting him stay! I've already told Patr
Chapter 1472Tail rested her head on Patrick's shoulder and wrapped her chubby arms around Patrick's neck. The two looked very close. But Edwin found it so annoying! "Edwin, you're out of bounds in Sapphire City. Now do you also want to cause trouble in Mourpa? Do I need to tell you in advance where I'm going?" Patrick covered Tail's head with one hand to keep Edwin from seeing Tail's face. "Get out of the way!" Patrick hissed to Edwin. Edwin didn't move. "Ask Joanna to come to see me." Their argument grew louder. Tail felt the heave in Patrick's chest and was awakened. "Ah." She tried to rub her eyes but found she was wearing a pair of sunglasses. She looked up and saw Edwin's face. Edwin was a bad guy to her. She immediately screamed, "Mommy, there's a child trafficker here!" Tail wrapped her arms tighter around Patrick's neck, her arms trembling. She was so scared, as if Edwin was a beast.Seeing that Tail was awake, Edwin wanted to say hi to her. After
Chapter 1473Patrick nodded appreciatively and found an excuse. "Your mommy is trying to catch that child trafficker and send him to the police station so that he can't get back at us, so I'm going to take you to the hotel for a few days. You're a sweet girl and you will understand, right?" "Yes, I understand. I hope Mommy will catch that child trafficker soon!" On their way to the hotel, Patrick carried Tail in his arms the whole time, so he got all sweaty. Just after he went to the bathroom to take a shower, Tail's cell phone rang. She immediately got up and picked up the phone. On the other end of the line, a childish and domineering voice rang out. "Tail, this is Miles. Do you miss me?" "Miles, I met a child trafficker today!" Hearing Miles’ familiar voice, Tail got excited and she told him what had just happened. Miles was in Sapphire City at the moment. Miles enjoyed watching Tail’s live streaming, but Tail couldn't read all the messages. Besides, Patrick wa
Chapter 1474The photo slid to Joanne's feet. In the photo, Joanne was being forced by the security guards to sign the divorce papers. When Joanne looked down and saw the photo, her face turned pale. Edwin noticed the expression on Joanne's face. He felt depressed but a little happy. 'Since she cares about it, she still has feelings for me.' "I didn't know you were forced to sign the divorce papers. I had a car accident and was sent to the hospital. When I woke up, I learned that you had gone with Patrick. I only got the divorce papers." "You had a car accident?" Joanne didn't believe him. She tried to suppress her anger and asked, "Did I offend you? Why did you come to me and make up these lies?" "You think I'm lying to you?" Edwin was frustrated when he learned that Joanne had such a deep misunderstanding about him. "You believe that I cheated on you and humiliated your family, so you divorced me. It was reasonable." Edwin narrowed his eyes and retorted,
Chapter 1475Joanne was not excited about receiving the expensive gift. Instead, she felt annoyed and troubled. Her mind was in turmoil. 'Should I trust him? Those killers were not arranged by Edwin four years ago? 'Or does he want to get close to me and have someone kill me after finding me alive?' ... Edwin was also upset. He left the Brown family's house. There was a glint of determination in his unreadable eyes. He was determined never to let Joanne run away from him again. Suddenly, his cell phone rang. "Mr. Atherton, I got bad news! You are in trouble!" Lucas said in a shaky voice. Edwin tugged his tie and asked, "What's going on? Why do you sound so panicked?" "An influencer posted a picture of you on Facebook. It was a little girl. She said you were a child trafficker and warned everyone to be careful if they saw you!" Lucas took a deep breath and told Edwin the news. Edwin couldn't believe it at first. Then he opened the influencer's Faceboo
Chapter 1476Lucas arrived with Mourpa's top lawyer to handle the paperwork.After the brawl, Edwin immediately had his lawyer sue Tail for defamation and inciting others to commit crimes.Since Patrick used his daughter as a tool, Edwin didn't mind targeting a kid."Mr. ... Mr. Atherton," The police officer knew Tail's family background. He trembled while saying, "I think there must be a misunderstanding in this matter. It's not to the point of suing her, right?"Edwin sat leisurely on the sofa, and the police officer stood in front of him.Edwin was reading the online comments.It had not been long since Tail accused him on the Internet, but it had already caused an uproar.Some people recognized him. After doxing Edwin, they found that he was actually the CEO of the Atherton Group.In addition, Edwin used to hit entertainment headlines. In ordinary people's eyes, he was a playboy. Once he was related to abducting young girls, no matter what he was accused of doing, people w
Chapter 1477Seeing that Joanne and Patrick didn't believe her, Tail hastily took out her cell phone."This is his phone number. He said he was the rich guy on my live stream. He sends me many gifts every day. And he wants to be my boyfriend, but I haven't agreed yet."Joanne was stunned.'Who the hell dares to pick up my daughter?'If I find out who he is, I won't let him off.'However, when Joanne looked at the phone number, she almost fainted from the shock.She thought, 'I have to teach this bold brat a good lesson.'...The lawyer's letter was delivered to the hotel by courier.At the same time, a large number of paparazzi surrounded the hotel.Tail was already very famous in Mourpa. After she posted online to accuse Edwin of being a human trafficker, she was known by more people. She became the hottest topic.Joanne stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, lifted the curtain with her index finger, and glanced downstairs.There were heaps of paparazzi.Patrick
Chapter 1943"Just 999 dollars! It will bring you a long, happy life together."The vendor stared at Catelyn with eager eyes, frantically trying to sell his products.Cedrick looked down at Catelyn tenderly and asked, "Do you like it?"Catelyn picked up a charm to take a look, smiling, "It's not bad, but is it too expensive?"The charm was a good symbol. However, it was just casually made, not worth that much. This vendor was clearly trying to rip them off."As long as you like it, it has value."Cedrick raised his chin. Eason immediately handed over 10 hundred-dollar bills.The vendor gazed at the dollar bills with glowing eyes, took them with trembling hands, and chose a perfect charm for Catelyn and Cedrick.Cedrick took the charm and connected Catelyn's hand and his with it.His long, slender fingers moved. Even the slightest movement was very pleasant. Coupled with the romantic atmosphere, it was so beautiful.Joanne got excited as she watched them, clamoring, "I want o
Chapter 1942"Oh my, Evelyn made the shop assistant kneel to put her shoes on? That was too much! Does she think she's a noble princess?""Check out this video. Evelyn framed Mrs. Mason at the mall with a big belly.""Even a beast won't harm its children. Evelyn risked her child's life! How can she be so cruel?""Bah! Mr. Mason is handsome and rich. Evelyn actually cheated on him!""Her lover is too ugly. Evelyn has terrible taste.""Ahhh, Evelyn moaned so lewdly in the video. How can this man compare to Mr. Mason? I want to vomit..."As people online questioned and criticized Evelyn, her reputation completely collapsed, and she quickly became notorious.Cedrick became the victim of this incident.Cedrick sat in the car, looking at the responses on the Internet. He nodded and said, "You did a good job."To create the illusion that Evelyn cheated on Cedrick, Eason used AI technology to change Ralph's face into a stranger's in the videos of Evelyn and him having sex. "Thank
Chapter 1941Evelyn's voice paused, and her eyes were vicious and angry as she questioned hysterically, "But I did everything out of love for you!"Cedrick wanted to laugh. "Thank you, Ms. Swan. Although your love makes me sick, I have kindly prepared a gift for you."Evelyn looked at him in fear and confusion when she saw a familiar figure walk in through the door.The visitor was just as tall, straight, and handsome as Cedrick. It was amazing to see any difference in their appearance."It's you? You're Ralph?" exclaimed Evelyn, her stomach lurching.For so many nights, she had sex with Ralph, the imposter. No wonder the baby she gave birth to was so disgusting too."Little bitch, long time no see. I missed you so much."Ralph grinned and walked toward Evelyn with lustful eyes."Go away! Go away!"Evelyn frantically waved her pillow, trying to repel Ralph, but these attacks were like a kitten's playing in Ralph's eyes.Ralph smiled evilly, dragged Evelyn down from the hospi
Chapter 1940A few seconds later, she tore up the piece of paper regardless and looked at Cedrick with crazy eyes, "I'm your wife! It's Mrs. Mason in name only! All of this is a lie. My daughter is your child! And could only be your child!"Cedrick sneered, his deep eyes icy, "Think what you want, as long as you're happy."His voice was deep, pleasant, and charming, but what he said sent chills down Evelyn's spine.Evelyn looked at him incredulously. The smile on Cedrick's lips became even more fascinating. "There's something I forgot to mention. Are you sure the person you married is me? My wife is Catelyn from the beginning."Previous images flashed through Evelyn's mind. She thought of Cedrick's different attitudes. His passion, his impatience... Scene by scene, frame by frame, it was like a horrible movie, making her shiver."Cedrick, you indeed lied to me..."Evelyn stared at Cedrick with hatred, her eyes paranoid and mad."Even if my child is not yours and I didn't marry
Chapter 1939"I'm satisfied," Cedrick smiled dangerously, his eyes emotional.It was a smile that made Evelyn feel extremely alarmed."Then ... show me the baby."Cedrick looked at Evelyn condescendingly, his deep eyes full of coldness. "Eason."Eason respectfully carried the baby over to the hospital bed. "Mrs. Mason, please."Evelyn took the child in surprise and lifted the swaddling blanket on the baby.Although it was a girl, Evelyn gave birth to her. Naturally, Evelyn loved her.Yet the moment she saw the baby's face, Evelyn's face suddenly changed, and she quickly threw the baby away, leaning down and vomiting."No, it's not my baby! It's not my baby!"'How can she possibly be my child?' The baby was deformed. Her little face was bruised. Her eyes, nose, and mouth were all tightly grown together. She looked extraordinarily horrible..."Mrs. Mason, this is your baby!"Eason nimbly caught the baby that almost fell to the floor and brought it back to Evelyn."Take her a
Chapter 1938"Now, all of you, stop talking nonsense and do your job. We'll have an easy time when she has given birth."The doctor reprimanded and turned to go back to his office.Inside the room, Evelyn scrolled through the videos and news with a bitter smile.These days after she came back, Cedrick visited her every day and was photographed by many reporters and media. Now the news was all about her and Cedrick being in love.Yet only she knew that Cedrick always left soon after he came, never staying longer than fifteen minutes.'Is it really because he's too busy working?'When she thought of Summer and Braylon, who came in and out together affectionately, a glint of jealousy flashed in Evelyn's eyes.If only Cedrick could always stay by her side as Braylon did to Summer.Soon, it was Evelyn's due date."Cedrick, I'm so scared..."Evelyn grabbed Cedrick's sleeve, sweating in pain. "I can't take it anymore. I want a C-section with general anesthesia..."With a cold ligh
Chapter 1937The nurse rushed to support Evelyn.Evelyn looked flustered and headed back to the ward."Has anyone touched my things?"Evelyn came back like a different person. The condescension she had when she first arrived disappeared.'Braylon is no ordinary man. What if he really wants to help Summer get back at me?'Evelyn subconsciously rubbed her belly. She mustn't let anything happen to her child. She called the nurse and said coldly, "Ask the doctor to come here! I suspect someone has poisoned me."The nurse gave her a frightened look and murmured, "Mrs. Mason, how is this possible?""I don't care! Go get the doctor to check everything in the room. I will not allow anyone to hurt my child!" Evelyn yelled in a stern voice as her eyes went crazy.The nurse called the doctor in fear, and the doctor came, checked everything, and said resignedly, "Mrs. Mason, we assure you that everything here is qualified and absolutely free of any harmful substances. You can relax."Eve
Chapter 1936Evelyn nodded with satisfaction and asked with a smile, "Did Cedrick arrange this for me?"Eason thought to himself, 'Mr. Mason has no time for her.' Yet he smiled, "Of course, Mrs. Mason. If there's nothing else, I'll go back now."Evelyn smiled and nodded, "Go ahead. There are so many nurses here. They can take care of me."Cedrick had arranged the best labor and delivery room for Evelyn. Three nurses worked 24-hour shifts, so she would have someone to serve her at any time.Evelyn walked into the glass corridor, looking out at the sunshine and green grass. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure."Who's that woman on the bench?"Evelyn's eyes went cold as she frowned and asked the young nurse next to her.The young nurse came over and asked with a puzzled look, "Mrs. Mason, which one do you mean?" "The old woman on the bench."A sneer appeared on Evelyn's lips, and her tone was acerbic.The nurse gave Evelyn a surprised look. "This lady is Mrs. Hensley, who live
Chapter 1935Cedrick was silent for a moment, counting the time. Indeed, Evelyn's due date was approaching.The smile on his mouth grew colder as he thought about what was going to happen."I'll have Eason pick you up.""I know you're busy. It's okay to have Eason pick me up, but I want to see you as soon as I get back."Evelyn smiled sweetly, not bothering with these details.As long as Cedrick cared about her, it was the same whoever came to pick her up.Evelyn touched her round belly, and her expectant face gradually became worried.'It's said that a sharp belly predicts a son and that a round belly predicts a daughter. My belly is so round. Will I have a daughter?'Meanwhile, Cedrick hung up the phone, casually threw it to the bedside, lay back down, and pulled the soft Catelyn into his arms.Half asleep, Catelyn heard Evelyn speaking arrogantly on the phone and slumped against Cedrick's chest."Evelyn's coming back?"Cedrick nodded slightly, a little impatient. "She's
