The two bodyguards standing beside Maribel let go at the same time.She was thrown to the ground. There were red marks on her wrists, and her face contorted in pain.Yet she could not care less. She ran to pick up the torn clothes on the ground to cover up her body.She forced herself to ignore the mocking expressions from those male colleagues.After covering her private parts, Catelyn walked over slowly and eventually stopped in front of her.Maribel's eyes landed on Catelyn's high heels, and she slowly looked up to meet Catelyn's deep eyes."Now tell me, who gave you the order last night?"Maribel's face was swollen like a bun. She bit her lower lip forcefully and asked instead, "How did Missus Zimmer learn about her husband and me? Did you tell her? It's you who led her to find me, right?!"Catelyn chuckled. "Missus Zimmer probably hasn't gone far. She seemed reluctant to let you go. Should I call her back again?""No! I'll talk!" Recalling the scene of being bullied by Mi
Pentaland Group used the seesaw technique, promoting their housing by triggering a disconcertment among the society on the quality and safety of housing, with the help of Louis from VSA Group. Then they followed it up with the new real estate pre-sale.Pentaland's properties had gained unprecedented popularity, and the sales were unparalleled by any previous sales.Then the female CEO of Pentaland Group poached Louis and colluded with reporters and a female liar to stir up ridicule against the VSA Group on the Internet to push the price of the new building to a new height.Pentaland Group became even more extreme when they joined forces with Maribel, who led the projects of shoddy constructions, to frame Catelyn, who tried to settle the dissatisfaction among the people.However, they never foresaw that their conspiracy would be revealed one day…Gradually, the influencers began to deviate from the topic, both intentionally or unintentionally, suggesting that Maribel was a pawn in
Grandpa Mason had received the news in advance that Old Madam Atherton had found her long-lost granddaughter.Her most beloved daughter, Summer Atherton, had died in the process of giving birth to Quinn.Grandpa Mason was very happy, and it felt like a dream come true for him. He did not have a good history with Old Madam Atherton back when he was young, which caused the Athertons and the Masons to have bad relations for many years. This incident has always been a source of grief in Grandpa Mason's heart.He was getting ready to pay Old Madam Atherton a visit in two days. At the same time, he was thinking of matching Cedrick with the Athertons' new granddaughter.If both of them could get married, it would be the best way to resolve the conflict between the two families.However, Old Madam Atherton was not keen on seeing him, which was why Grandpa Mason had never come for a visit. Now, there was a scandal between Quinn and Pentaland Group.At first, Grandpa Mason was confused. What Pen
In the Pentaland Group headquarters, Quinn had received a series of indiscriminate bombardments from Lola.She had not expected Quinn to handle things so stupidly.Lola had a very ominous premonition that if Quinn continued, Old Madam Atherton would sweep her out of the family before Quinn's identity as a fake granddaughter was exposed.No, Lola had to do something about this.She forced Quinn to give her the role of the main female character in the big movie project in which the Atherton Family had recently invested. Quinn was shocked upon hearing this. She did not even know who was in charge of this. How would she even do this for Lola?"Miss Atherton, I just returned to the Atherton Manor. I gave you the endorsement you wanted, and now you want the main female character role. I don't think I'm able to do this," said Quinn in a very gentle and polite manner.Lola wanted to milk as much as she could in the shortest possible time. "Everyone in the Atherton Family now knows that y
"It looks like she's here to ask for money. I'll have someone send her away," said Eugene, looking at Stella with disgust while ordering one of his guards to take her away.Quinn dared not let Stella make a fuss. She had made a mistake, and she should have listened to Lola's instructions and kept Stella away from this.At first, Quinn thought that she would not be able to get away from impersonating the granddaughter of the Atherton Family. If Stella were gone, Quinn would have no safety net left behind. Therefore, she just casually tricked her mother by telling her that she had gone on a business trip.As Quinn rose above upper-class society, she had completely forgotten about Stella.She thought she would never see her again…However, here Stella was, right in front of her doorstep!"No, Uncle Eugune! She had helped me in the past. I've heard that she has been having a rough time recently. Don't be so inhumane. Let me have a talk with her," said Quinn with a smile.Under Eugen
Quinn had to prevent Stella from contacting the Athertons.To be precise, Stella's existence was a ticking time bomb. Quinn had to consult with Lola to discuss possible countermeasures quickly. Her identity must not be exposed!Meanwhile, on the other side, Catelyn was in a very good mood.It was time to get off work. Jolene hurriedly pushed open the office door and stared at Catelyn. "Kitty! Quick, go online and have a look!""What's wrong?" asked Catelyn. She saw Jolene behaving so anxiously and thought that perhaps something had happened to the company.Catelyn quickly opened the webpage given by Jolene. Next, she saw a photo of herself and David Mason hugging each other.There were several photos in total. In the pictures, her cheeks were flushed as she embraced David, holding onto his shirt tightly. David, on the other hand, looked down at her with a gentle expression.In the last picture, it looked like David was lowering his head and kissing her neck!Although Catelyn co
Back in the Mason Group, Cedrick left all the work at hand to Charles after he hung up the phone with Catelyn. He also instructed Eason not to pick up the two boys today.Eason would usually help to fetch the kids back when Cedrick and Catelyn were both busy with their work. He was wondering why he did not need to do it this time, and the next moment he saw Cedrick heading downstairs with the car keys.Cedrick drove to the kindergarten himself. School had just ended, and the gates were crowded with many parents who were there to pick up their children.Cedrick frowned at the crowd. He parked his car a block away and walked to the school gate.As Cedrick arrived, he instantly caught the attention of the other male parents around him.How masculine! Which child's parent is this?He looks so cool!The gate of the kindergarten opened, and groups of children came running toward their parents with joy.Miles and Ollie saw Cedrick standing at the door."Why is he here?" Ollie was a l
Jolene was right. It was one thing for Cedrick to see Catelyn hugging David, but would he actually mind it?Indeed, if it were not for David's rescue, the consequences would be unimaginable.However, would Cedrick actually just sit still and watch his wife being embraced in another man's arms? Of course not!Cedrick raised his jaw arrogantly and squinted at Miles. "Go back to your seat.""No." Miles said as he poked his fingers on Cedrick's shoulder, "Are you really not jealous of Uncle Nine? I want to see what your jealous face looks like."Cedrick replied coldly, "I'm not jealous."Following that, Ollie's expression immediately became serious, and he looked at Cedrick in disappointment. "Mummy and Uncle Nine were hugging each other, and you are neither angry nor jealous. Do you even love Mummy?"Cedrick did not answer.Miles nodded in agreement and pouted. "Perhaps the Big Demon had already lost interest in Mummy after marrying her, and now he doesn't mind Mummy hugging other
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
