Chapter 1750Catelyn patted Joanne's shoulder and whispered in her ear, "Sorry, my mom's mental age is now stuck at eighteen, so her taste and preferences are the same as when she was eighteen. I'll give you another gift some other time.""Why bother? I don't think a dress like this will be outdated even after eight or ten years, so I'll keep it for Tail...""That's a good way to kill two birds with one stone."Joanne smilingly accepted the dress and said sincerely, "Thank you, Summer. I really like this dress." Summer hired a famous designer to customize the dress and gave it to Joanne on her birthday, which showed her love for Joanne. "I'm happy that you like it. I was afraid you would dislike the color..." Summer curved her mouth slightly....The dinner began.All the dishes tonight were ordered by Edwin and designed by him and the chef.The lights were swaying, paired with romantic music. Dining in such an environment was very romantic.Joanne was in a good mood until s
Chapter 1751Hearing the familiar male voice, Vivian looked at Elliot with tears in her eyes. "Mr. Vesley..."She hurriedly wiped her tears and forced a faint smile."Don't lie to me." Elliot grabbed Vivian's wrist, his brows knitted tighter. "Why are you crying?""I..." Vivian replied with a pinched smile. "It's just that something got in my eye. I'm fine."Elliot's sullen eyes were locked on Vivian. "The moment you saved me, I said I wouldn't let anyone bully you. What's going on?"Vivian was secretly pleased, but she bit her lower lip."Don't be like this. It is a birthday party. It was hard for me to get a chance to come and see the world. I don't want to cause any trouble... You said that there were whales and puffer fish around this island, didn't you? Why don't we go and see...""Did Mr. Atherton bully you?" Elliot resolutely interrupted her.Vivian's face changed slightly, and she hastily waved her hand. "It's not him! He didn't bully me. It's his wife who just..."Th
Chapter 1752Suddenly, Shelby's cell phone screen lit up with a text message from a strange number."Come out. I'm waiting for you on the yacht."That commanding tone wouldn't belong to anyone but Elliot."Shelby, is someone looking for you?" Director Freddie asked with concern as he saw Shelby staring blankly at the text message.Although Shelby used capital to become a cast member, she was very trainable and more talented than Jaden, so Director Freddie thought highly of her.Shelby deleted the message casually. "Just a spam."The two chatted for a while. Shelby was intoxicated and intended to go to the bathroom to sober up. Just when she moved toward the bathroom, a figure suddenly sprang out of the darkness. Before she could react, she was dragged to the garden at the back of the villa.Shelby staggered, subconsciously calling for help. Abruptly, she was fiercely pushed against a stone. Her back ached so much that her face turned pale. She secretly took her cell phone and d
Chapter 1753"Keep your friend away from her, or I'll make your dad suffer even more. Do you hear me?" Elliot warned Shelby coldly.Shelby guessed things had started because of Vivian.But based on Shelby's understanding of Joanna, she wouldn't give someone a hard time for no reason. There must be something else going on. Shelby really didn't want to get entangled with Elliot, so she tried to push him away.Shelby struggled unconsciously, but it made them get closer together.Elliot's pupils shrunk. He grabbed Shelby's slender neck. "Do you want to seduce me?"Shelby couldn't help but shiver, especially when her neck was being held like this.Upon meeting Elliot's cruel eyes, she felt a chill all over her. She hated this feeling so much."Seduce you? You're the last man I will seduce. You are a demon who put my father in the hospital. Elliot, get off me! I have nothing more to say to you...""Demon? Then I'll show you how a real demon will screw your family." Elliot was enrage
Chapter 1754‘Elliot is so shameless. I will ask Edwin why he has made a friend with Elliot.’Elliot unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt, exposed his delicate collarbones, and sneered, “I was wondering who the meddlesome woman was. It turns out that it’s you, Ms. Walters. You’d better not interfere in the matter of Shelby and me. It’s none of your business.”Edwin invited Elliot to attend his wife’s birthday party, but Elliot called Joanne Ms. Walters instead of Mrs. Atherton.Elliot did so to mock Joanne.Joanne replied to Elliot calmly, “Indeed, it would be none of my business if you weren’t on the island. However, you’re on my island and can’t run riot here.”“So you admit that you made things difficult for Vivian.” Elliot narrowed his eyes and stood in the face of Joanne.Joanne frowned. ‘I just didn’t take Vivian’s name card. How could Elliot say that I made things difficult for Vivian?’Joanne pulled a long face. “Vivian is nobody in my eyes. I don’t bother to pay any att
Chapter 1755Under Edwin’s sullen and cold gaze, Vivian panicked and almost couldn’t breathe.‘I shouldn’t have followed Elliot to come here!’She had no choice but to tell Elliot the whole story, “When I met Mrs. Atherton by chance, I would like to make a friend with her and handed my name card to her, but she didn’t take it, so I felt disappointed.”Joanne asked, “Is that all? Did I do anything else to you?”Vivian held back her tears and apologized to Joanne, “That’s all. You didn’t do anything else. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to cause misunderstanding. It’s all my fault that I didn’t clearly explain it to Mr. Vesley. Mrs. Atherton, please forgive me.”Elliot frowned tightly. He didn’t have the heart to see Vivian apologize to Joanne.However, before Elliot said anything, Joanne added, “It’s strange. Isn’t it said that Mr. Vesley is a young upstart in business? Why are you so illogical? I just didn’t take your lover’s name card, but you think that I bullied her. You didn’t call
Chapter 1756Elliot’s handsome face clouded over. He looked at Joanne and sneered, “Ms. Walters, fine, you win. Edwin has been my friend for many years, but you sow disorder between Edwin and me with a few words. No wonder Vivian doesn’t have the guts to tell me how you bullied her.”Joanne was stuck for words. ‘What I said is all the truth. How can Elliot say that I sow disorder between Edwin and him?‘It’s Vivian who sows disorder between them.’Suddenly, Edwin sneered, “Humph...”Edwin became serious and aloof.“Elliot, don’t slander my wife. She’s reluctant to see you now. Leave here with your lover!”‘Edwin is asking me to leave here seriously?’Elliot narrowed his eyes.Vivian was also surprised.‘Edwin and Elliot were acquainted with each other when they studied abroad. They have been friends for many years, but now Edwin asks Elliot to leave just because of Joanna?‘How has Joanna bewitched Edwin?’Elliot stood there dumbfounded. After a while, he said angrily, “A
Chapter 1757Benjamin said to Joanne, “It’s strange that Elliot was so unreasonable and impulsive. After he calms down, he will realize that he’s wrong. At that time, I will take him to apologize to you. Please don’t refuse.”But Joanne shook her head. “No. Please don’t take him to see me.”Hearing that, Benjamin frowned and asked, “Are you unwilling to forgive him?”Joanne shook her index finger. “It’s not like that. I just think it’s unnecessary. Besides, I dislike his female partner.”Although Joanne said so to Benjamin, she still apologized to Edwin in private.Edwin looked at Joanne.“What do you want to say?”“Elliot is your good friend, but you broke with him because of me. If the news is spread, it will tarnish your reputation...”Edwin interrupted Joanne and raised her chin with his slender finger.“Tell me. Did Vivian piss you off before?” ‘If there were no inside stories, Joanne wouldn’t have refused Vivian’s name card for no reason. Especially, Vivian was my fri
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
