'Cedrick wanted to hurt the child in Cat's stomach and even threatened me! In his dream, I'll tell him the truth! Ha! Glad I pissed him madly! No matter what he wanted to do, he would fail!' Joanne was extremely depressed, and the night in winter came very early.She took out her phone to check the time, only to find that there were countless missed calls and text messages.She muted her mobile phone before shooting at the TV station, so she could not reply to those missed calls and messages in time.Unlocking her phone, there were more than a dozen missed calls, all from Edwin, including voice messages from him.[Joanne, did you forget something you promised me?][The staff at the TV station said that you got into the car with a married man. Who is that man?!][Send me a location now, and I'll come to pick you up.][I'll prepare a Christmas gift for grandma in the evening.][Respond to my message immediately!][Joanne, let me warn you one last time…]...Joanne looked at th
Joanne might as well get herself pregnant with someone else. She could not conceive a child anyway, and she would definitely be exposed if this dragged on.…It was getting dark. Joanne leaned against the railing by the road to rest as she could not walk anymore.Feeling tired and hungry and in a very bad mood, Joanne eventually fell asleep on the spot.The cold wind blew recklessly as she slept…Joanne had a dream which brought her back to the days when she used to live with her family.The Winters Family ran a small and medium-sized company. Her father was always very busy with work. While Missus Winters was pregnant with Joanne, her husband actually had a mistress outside, and he even got her pregnant! During the second stage of Missus Winters' pregnancy, she accidentally fell down the stairs. In addition to the dystocia, she died as she gave birth to Joanne.From there, her stepmother moved into the Winters Residence, which was where Joanne's nightmare all began…For va
Joanne rubbed her eyes, trying to dispel the fact that Edwin was here. Instead of disappearing, Edwin got closer to her.Joanne could not help but pinch her thigh. The pain was so great it made her gasp. Before she could regain her senses, she saw Edwin's angry face."Joanne! Seriously? Can't you see the no-pedestrian sign?! What if you get hit by a car?! I don't care if you die, but am I supposed to support you for the rest of your life if you're paralyzed?" scolded Edwin.Edwin's face was furious. He was not only angry with her, but he was also mad about himself as well!He obviously wanted a child, and there were many ways to get what he wanted. Joanne was such a stupid girl, but he just could not let her go.Even the thought of having a child with her excited Edwin…Joanne was frightened by the sharpness in his eyes. She ducked back in fear. "No… I didn't want to be here… I was forced…"Edwin walked in front of Joanne and pressed her body against the railing. He lowered his
Edwin cursed out loud as he felt the sting from Joanne's bite, and immediately loosened his grip on her wrist.Joanne quickly crawled up and started running forward…High heels were inconvenient, so she took them off and held them with her hand as she ran frantically, as if she was chased after a wild animal.Edwin was in pain. He lifted his cuffs to check his wound, and sure enough, a circle of teeth marks was seen on his skin.Darn it!Edwin cursed angrily as he ran after Joanne. In the midst of it, she suddenly ran into the middle of the road and stopped a car in a desperate attempt.She was heard talking to the driver agitatedly, and the driver let her into his vehicle for some reason."Joanne! Stop right there!" yelled Edwin with a pale face.Vroom!The car sped away, releasing its exhaust smoke on Edwin's face.He stood there in silence.Wonderful… Just wonderful!You better watch out, Joanne!Edwin went back to his Ferrare with a dark face. His car was not parked pr
In any case, Cedrick also had to figure out why Catelyn was suddenly so distant from him. At times like this, he needed her by his side even more.Twenty minutes later, the doctor retrieved the surveillance footage of the operating room.In the video, Catelyn was seen lying flat on the bed. She was told to spread her legs to do some preliminary examinations. Moments later, the laparoscopic surgery began, which lasted about forty or fifty minutes…Cedrick did not blink an eye as he watched the entire process, including the bloody part.As the female doctor said, the child was not in complete form. It was just a lump of flesh and blood.Cedrick's heart froze, and his lips pursed tightly."Master Cedrick, are you okay?" asked the female doctor with a face full of concern."Send this video to my email," said Cedrick. He stood up as he finished, resting one hand on the edge of the table, feeling uncomfortable, as if there was something very heavy stuck in his chest.The surveillan
Edwin glared at him coldly in response.He stood in the rainstorm. His coat was all wet, sticking to his skin.Despite the chilly surrounding temperature, his eyes were colder than the winter wind.Now that the car window was lowered, Edwin quickly glanced at the rear seat. It was empty."Where's the girl in your car?" Edwin asked in a frightening manner.The driver was taken aback by his intimidating aura. "Who? There's no one in my car," he stammered."I watched her get into your car with my own eyes. Shall I bring you to the police station with me?" replied Edwin as he raised his voice, his eyebrows rising slightly."Oh, you mean that girl from earlier? She asked me to stop as soon as she got off the elevated road," said the driver as he suddenly realized and hurriedly pointed to the direction behind him.Edwin did not speak, and just stared at the driver."What I said is true. She suddenly rushed out of the road to stop the car, saying that she couldn't walk back, so I k
The girl who was sobbing raised her head and ducked back. "Who are you?"Edwin was stunned. He quickly said, "I'm sorry, I was mistaken."It was not Joanne!Where did she go?...An hour later, Edwin received a call from the manor housekeeper, asking when he was returning and whether he needed to prepare his portion for dinner tonight.Edwin asked for Joanne, only to find out that she had already gone back.So his efforts to look for her were all for nothing?Edwin eventually returned to the manor.The servants were all shocked to see his drenched and gloomy face.Edwin did not even bother with them, and he walked straight to Catelyn's room.At the moment, Joanne was watching TV and listening to music with her for prenatal education in Catelyn's room.As she heard the door knocking, she thought it was Kelly who was bringing her food again. She threw away the picture book, turned her head, and walked towards the door. "Aunt Kelly, are you trying to raise me as a pig? The doc
"It's all thanks to her!" said Edwin as he looked at Joanne.She retorted angrily. "What does it have to do with me? I didn't ask you to come to look for me in the rain. Why are you blaming me?"Edwin's face turned dark as he heard Joanne's words. Catelyn was speechless as well. Joanne was pretty bold today."Kitty, I apologize," Edwin said suddenly.Catelyn was confused. "What for?""I'll be taking Joanne away from you for now," replied Edwin. He then stretched his hands out and dragged Joanne to his bedroom."Ah! No! Kitty, save me!" Joanne let out a piercing cry.As Edwin brought her into his room, he pressed her against the door and kissed her deeply....They both were doing it until it was almost midnight. After two hours, Edwin was finally done. He lowered his head and left a kiss on Joanne's forehead. "Don't you ask me for a divorce without giving birth to a child. I know that you want to break the contract. Because of that, you'll never make it big for the rest of you
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
