"I didnโt know either. I only found out that it was Scarlett when I woke up the next dayโฆ Iโve already handled this matter appropriately, but she told me that she was pregnant a few days ago.โ Natalie's breathing instantly froze, it was as if her heart stopped beating. She was pregnant. She was also a woman, so she knew what it meant. "Nat, don't be angry, Iโฆ have dealt with this matter, but...but the hospital called today and said that something happened during Scarlett's abortion, and sheโs in a very dangerous state now, she has a blood coagulation disorder." Yadon looked at Natalie nervously, for fear that Natalie would be overly emotional. Natalie's body was stiff to the point of weakness, and her eyes slowly turned red. "You... go ahead." "Nat..." Yadon was scared. "Nat, please believe me, it really wasn't my intention. This matterโฆ I was really set up by someone else." "She must know that she has a blood coagulation disorder, but she is willing to abort that child
โSum...โ Jasperโs heart trembled. He immediately ran over and looked at Summer nervously. โWhy are you here?โ โScarlett is pregnant. So...โ Jasper felt a little troubled. He could not hide it any longer for Yadon. Otherwise... he would be losing his wife.โIโm worried...โ Without waiting for Summer to finish her words, Jasper hugged her in his arms. โSum, Iโm not intending to cheat on you...โโYouโre such bad friends.โ Summer sighed and pinched Jasper hard. โDonโt lie to me next time.โ She was worried about him. She was worried about whether Jasper would go and look for other women, or whether he was being used by other people, or whether he was sick again.โIt is all my fault.โ Jasper felt distressed and hugged Summer tightly. โI wonโt lie to you anymore.โโWhoโs the patientโs family? Sheโs now in a dangerous state, and she needs a blood transfusion. We also need signatures from her family.โThe nurse rushed out from the resuscitation room and asked nervously. โThe pati
Natalie lowered her gaze and her heart raced. โI... I am not too sure.โโDid Yadon take the initiative to tell you?โ Summer sighed. โYes, he took the initiative to tell me.โ Natalie nodded. She felt helpless while holding Summerโs hand. โSum, I am scared. I am scared that Yadon will pity Scarlett. I know that he did not do this intentionally. He told me that he was being manipulated by others. I believe him... But Scarlett is an orphan. She does not have family nor friends. What should I do?โOn the way to the hospital, Natalie was scared as she thought about it.โLater, letโs see what Scarlett wants.โ Summer hugged Natalie tightly and comforted her. โDonโt worry. Just leave this to Yadon. If he cannot handle this well, then you need to think about this carefully. You need to consider whether you want to follow him for your whole life and feel bad about this.โNatalie nodded and was brought out by Summer from the green passage. โThe surgery is now over. The bleeding has now sto
Raffertyโs breathing quickened, and his eyes turned red. โRafferty, are you a man...?โ Azula smiled and pulled Rafferty in front of her. โIf youโre a man, donโt hold it back...โRafferty narrowed his eyes and said with a hoarse voice. โToday, you donโt have to think of going outโฆโโฆ...At the Sea City Hospital...Scarlett woke up two days later. She had hemorrhaged previously, so her body was weak.Scarlett slowly opened her eyes and felt that her vision was blurry. She thought that Yadon would be worrying for her, and he would have a messy mind because of the hemorrhage she had. She knew that Yadon would panic and hide this matter from Natalie...But Scarlett did not expect to see Natalie when she woke up. Natalie supported her protruding stomach while pouring a cup of warm water. โHave you woken up? How do you feel? I will call the doctor.โ Natalieโs voice was very gentle.Scarlettโs heart sank. Either Natalie was pretending or not, the gentler she was, the more likely s
โIndeed, the old people were always more experienced.โYou had your strategy, but I have a better plan.โโUhm, would your wife agree? Summer did not agree about this matter, right?โ โI will tell her when I am back tonight.โ โIt was the design department that is in charge of the collaboration this time around. Summer should be agreeing to this?โEven if Summer disagreed, he dared not to hide anything from her.โBy the way, Chairman Miller, Rose, and her gang have been too quiet recently. It was so scary that they did not take any action. Rose has started doing charity and has donated her properties. She even said to the public that the most regretful thing that she had done was to abandon her son, Samson...โ Jasper smiled coldly. โIs she trying to use kinship as her trump card?โPreviously, she was the one who abandoned Samson, used him, and she almost killed him. But now she came back and looked for him and even wanted Samson to stand with her. Was Rose thinking that the child
โAbout what happened this time, even if Sum forgives you. I still need to lecture you. When she was pregnant, how could you leave her by the roadside? And you still do not care about this matter?โ Alaric was angry. Summer was his daughter and she was treated like a princess, but now she got bullied by Jasper in this way. โDonโt blame me for mentioning the past matters. When Summer lost her memories in the past, how did you treat her?!โ Jasper felt conflicted and slowly clenched his hands tightly. He did not explain and dared not to explain. โYou knew well about Summerโs conditions. She had suffered too much since young... If it wasnโt because I respect her choice, I would never let both of you be together! The Plath family is not lacking in anything, and not even you!โ Alaric was truly mad. Previously, he had scolded Jasper because of Summerโs fake death. Still, he did not appreciate Summer. Jasper lowered his gaze and dared not to say anything. โIf your father did not come and
โYes, Isabella has resigned and gone to Citadel Enterprise. Weโre collaborating with this company, and sheโs the representative.โ Jasper wanted to explain the situation to Summer. He was unsure if she would agree to it or not. โYou want me to do the handover with Isabella?โ Summer rolled her eyes at him. He sure knew how to toss his problems on other people.Jasper looked at Summer with pleading eyes. His eyes were shining with hope. โIโll think about it.โ Summer raised her chin and walked straight to the study room. Alaric was sitting at his desk, going through Summerโs pictures when she was younger. He looked emotional. โTime flies so fast.โโSum.โโFather, did you lecture Jasper?โ Summer asked calmly. โWhatโs the matter? I canโt do that?โ Alaric stared at her as if she was a good-for-nothing. She just kept siding with her husband.โItโs not entirely his fault.โ Summer had been pondering. Both of them were at fault. โWell, learn your lesson then!โ Alaric sighed. He st
โColeman Corporation is not the only thing that Rose wants.โ Alaric frowned. He detested Rose. โFather, can you roughly guess whoโs the mastermind working behind her?โ Summer had been pondering on this for a long time, but she still had no idea who the person was. โOne thing for sure, the mastermind working behind Rose and David are two different people.โ Summer had thought about it carefully. โI was hypnotized before, and the mastermind working behind Henri asked me to sign a contract with David. Iโve a feeling that David was controlled by him, but he didnโt seem to have any ill intentions towards Coleman Corporation.โโIโm still looking into this matter. You should stop getting involved.โ Alaric did not want Summer to continue to be entangled in this matter. โFather, this matter is not yours alone. Itโs mine too. Rose is too greedy and now she has a lot of enemies.โ Right now, the Caballero family or Miller Corporation were unanimously on their guard towards Rose. No matter ho
โI just find it hard to accept the truth. I donโt actually hate youโฆโ After staying silent for a long time, Summer spoke again. โIt wasโฆ too sudden for me. Give me some time to process this.โMabel looked at her in shock and covered her mouth. โSumโฆโSummer smiled at her and said, โBefore Iโm able to completely accept it, can I continue to call you Madam?โMabel covered her mouth in panic and nodded vigorously. โSureโฆ Call me anything you wantโฆโShe actually never cared what Summer called her. It was good enough for her as long as she did not try to avoid her. โCan I hug you?โ Summer took the initiative and stretched out her arms. Jasper had told Summer quite a lot about Mabelโs family. Her family was in a very scary place. They started falling into decadence in the later years. In fact, they started showing signs of having a lack of sons. Every leader of the family became anxious about who the next leader would be. They were so worried about who would be the head of the family
Without realizing it, Summer had subconsciously returned to the Miller familyโs mansion. โWifeyโฆโ Jasper rushed over to her, wanting to give her a surprise. But instead, she did not react. Her face looked pale too. โWifey?โ He panicked and knelt in front of her. โSumโฆโHe truly panicked this time. โDid she find out about something that I did in the past and is now mad at me?โโJasper, do you care who my mother is?โ Summer asked softly. His heart stopped beating for a second. He felt both distressed and relieved. โNo, I donโt. I only care about you.โโWhy do I care so much, thenโฆโ Summer smiled and hugged him tightly. โI shouldnโt care about it tooโฆโโEveryone has something that they donโt have control over. Sum, go easy on yourself.โSummer lay on top of him, picked up the glass of red wine on the table, and drank it.Jasper just realized that she smelled strongly of alcohol.โSumโฆโ He was a little worried. His heart ached for her too, but he also wanted to let her be.
Mabel was cooking in the kitchen of the Plath family's mansion. โMadam, stop cooking. Come and eat,โ Summer called out to her softly. Mabel smiled at Summer as she emerged with her favorite dish, cinnamon-spiced beef stroganoff.โSum, letโs eat.โ Mabel treated her really well. She helped her with the dishes.Summer was also already used to it. She no longer felt shy. It was natural to her already. Alaric looked at Summer and smiled plainly. โSum, follow me.โ After dinner was over, he asked her to go to the study room. โIs Jasper treating you well?โ Alaric asked. โYes, heโs treating me well.โ She smiled. โIf Jasper hadn't been busy and gone to Mountain City, he would be sticking around, bothering me.โโHe pushed back too much work to get ready for the wedding. He wants to finish making work arrangements as soon as possible and go on a honeymoon with me.โโSum, thereโs something that Iโve been hiding from you. Youโve always wanted to know your biological mother, right?โ A
โMr. Jasper Miller, do you take Summer Plath as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?โโI do,โ Jasper said the two words confidently.โIโm willing to take care of her and be by her side forever.โIโll always love her.โSheโll always be my number one.โโMs. Summer Plath, do you take Jasper Miller as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?โโโฆ I do.โShe purposely hesitated for a long time. Jasper was so scared that his face turned pale.After she chuckled and said โI doโ, he gritted his teeth, pulled her into his embrace, and kissed her.He kissed Summer even before the officiant had asked him to kiss the bride.She was so embarrassed by the kiss that her ears turned red.โJasper!โJas
Benjamin rolled his eyes at Aaron. โI belong to the bride's side. You should go to Jasperโs side.โโHe doesnโt deserve it,โ Aaron said stubbornly.Summer covered her mouth and chuckled. Everyone was immersed in the festive atmosphere of the wedding.ใใโWouldnโt it be nice if we could stay this happy all the time?โโHey, should we play a prank on the groom tomorrow? Letโs spice things up a little!โ The bridesmaids started planning something.โYou guys better be careful. Youโre all pregnant. Donโt stir up too much chaos,โ Summer said with a smile. โSeriously, itโs as they say: women always side with their husbands once theyโre married. Look at you, youโre already siding with him.โ A few of them teased Summer. Summer blushed so hard that she could not say anything in response. โCongratulations, Sum.โHers and Jasperโs friends and relatives came one after another. All of them would be attending the wedding ceremony tomorrow afternoon. Edward would be there with Trent too.
After all, this matter was related to Edwardโs mother because of her meeting with Hannaโs mother.She sat on the sofa and thought a lot. Would they get a divorce? Would Edwardโs father hate her because of this?Edward sat on the sofa and quietly accompanied his mother. โAbout this matter... Let's not tell Jen first. She may not be able to handle it.โEdwardโs mother nodded, in tears. Then, she shook her head. โIt was all my fault.โEdwardโs father finally came out of the study. Edward looked at his father nervously. He was afraid that his father would blame his mother.โI... I really did not know anything about it. I just thought she lived a difficult life. I felt guilty, so I asked someone to send her some money. I did not know what happened to her after that!โ Edwardโs mother panicked and started crying. Edwardโs father walked to her side. He did not blame her, but passed her a tissue. โIs this how you should behave in front of your son? Stop crying.โEdwardโs mother sobb
โI deserve it!โNieva was brought away by the police. She should have expected that this was the consequence of offending Jasper.Jasper was busy with the wedding and he did not care much about her. Otherwise, she might have gone through worse than being arrested.โฆโฆ At the Reeves family house in Mountain City...โAre you Hanna Delacruz? Letโs talk.โEdwardโs father asked Hanna to go into the study, leaving Edward and his mother in the living room.โEdward, I already know about the issue concerning your father.โโMom...โ Edward felt a little guilty. โI know about everything.โ Edwardโs mother shook her head. โThis matter is related to your father and me. This is what owed Hannaโs mother, but if you two have to pay for our mistakes. We...โโMom, this is no oneโs fault.โ Edward shook his head. In the study...Edwardโs father asked Hanna to go into the room. His expression was dreary. โAre you Venusโ daughter?โโDo you still remember my mother?โ Hanna smiled and kept a stra
Samson nodded as he watched Rose leaving.Charlie ran out of the courtyard and stood still. He looked a little distressed.He was just a child...Perhaps it was because he had a mother who set up a scheme against him and used him as a chess piece that he was more mature than other children.In the past, he wanted to live. He wanted not just to live but to prevent his mother from setting up a scheme against him.He was still Roseโs son, even if Rose had used a despicable way to give birth to him.โLetโs go home...โ Samson walked toward Charlie and rubbed his head.โSamson...โ Charlie lifted his head, and his eyes were red.โFrom now on, you have not just me, but your friends, younger brothers and sisters, and many older brothers and sisters who love you.โ Samson smiled at Charlie.Everyone could be redemption for other people, and other people could be their redemption, too.Charlie nodded and ran back to the Miller familyโs mansion.Melody was carrying her grandchildren and
Jasper did not care whether Thomas intended to hurt Summer or not.As long as Summer was shocked, he would not allow it.โTsk, tsk, tsk. Do you know Aiden, who is always with Thomas?โ He was Summerโs childhood friend. Summer did not know that Aiden was secretly protecting her. He was seriously injured and almost lost his life many times because of Summer.โJasper frowned. โSince he did not want to let Summer know about this, why is he making Summer more distressed?โJasper admired Aiden a lot because he never showed his love for Summer, but he had silently done many things for Summer.โJasper, you can just confess if youโre scared. You donโt have to put yourself in a higher status.โ Keane rolled his eyes.โFine, you will go to Country T for a business trip.โ Jasper was threatening Keane.โJasper, Iโm sorry, itโs my fault...โโฆ...The wedding was getting closer. Everyone was busy helping Jasper and Summer with their wedding.โLook at the dresses and gowns for my grandchildren.
