Jasper had sent Victoria back home. On his way back, his cell phone had started ringing. It was a number that was unfamiliar to him.

“Hello?”

“Jaz… Jaz, save-”

*Slam!* Before Summer could even finish speaking, Jasper had hung up out of frustration.

Victoria had been distracted ever since she had seen Summer earlier.

What a stupid idiot. He had already warned Summer before to not show up in front of Victoria and upset her.

At the Dawn family’s mansion.

“Vic, did Jasper agree to help your dad out regarding the problem with our company’s funding?”

Mrs. Dawn asked in a worried tone as soon as she saw that Victoria had come back.

Victoria was clearly distracted as she walked straight toward her room. Not saying a single thing, she shut her door with a bang.

“What’s up with this girl?”

......

Victoria’s face was becoming paler and paler, and her hands were trembling as she hugged herself tightly. She sat on the floor in an agitated manner.

It was impossible. It was impossible for Summer Plath to still be alive.

Those people said that they had dismembered her. So how was she still alive and well?

She had lost her memory.

It turned out that she had lost her memory. No wonder there was no news about her for the entire year.

No one in Country M knew that Summer Plath was still alive.

No, she absolutely must not allow them to find out!

“Vic, what would you do if Jasper refuses to help us out? Is it okay if you beg Mr. Plath to help us? After all, he is just as powerful as Jasper is in Country M. Didn’t he make you his goddaughter? I also heard that Mrs. Plath really likes you. Why don’t you beg her to help us out?”

Victoria’s mother was standing outside her door and pleading hard to her daughter.

The Dawn Corporation was experiencing a capital chain rupture. If this crisis was not solved, the Dawn family would no longer be able to hold on to their power in Sea City.

“Can I have some quiet time!?” Victoria growled at her mother as she lay seated in her room.

Her name was Victoria Dawn, and she was a beautiful woman who was born into a rich and powerful family. She was one of the top socialites in Sea City who was also envied by many.

Not only did she have Jasper Miller chasing after her, but Mr. Alaric Plath from Country M had also announced the fact that she was his goddaughter to the public.

After Summer was “kidnapped and dismembered”, the Plaths were incredibly heartbroken. Victoria knew she looked quite similar to Summer, so she deliberately acted like Summer in front of them. They would never have taken a liking to her otherwise.

She had worked very hard for everything she possessed and for her status in society today. She must...

She must not let anyone know of Summer’s existence. She absolutely must not let anyone know that Summer Plath was still alive!

The moment the Plaths and that man found out that Summer was still alive...

Everything that she had worked so hard for would instantly turn into ashes!

Her eyes slowly darkened. Victoria anxiously whipped out her cell phone, and with trembling fingers, she tapped on a phone number that she had blocked prior to this.

“Didn’t you guys say that you had already killed Summer Plath? Why is she still alive and well?

“I want her to die!”

......

At Summer’s rented house.

The boyfriend Summer talked about never arrived, and the delinquents, who had been a little cautious earlier, were becoming cockier and more fearless.

“So, where’s your boyfriend? Yo, take a look at me. Why don’t you make me your boyfriend?”

Summer hugged herself tightly and had her head lowered. The tears would not stop rolling down her cheeks as she gazed at her cell phone. Jasper had just hung up on her.

She would never be able to fool other people. The only person she was fooling was herself.

Boyfriend?

To Jasper, she was merely an idiot and a plaything.

She was biting her lower lip so hard that it had started to bleed, and her clothes had already been torn apart by the delinquents.

......

“Summer, who do you think you are? Are you seriously throwing a tantrum in front of me? I’m not keeping you here just so that you can act like a spoiled princess!”

......

Whenever Summer was upset, it would show on her face. But every time that it happened, Jasper would bully her with no mercy, insult her, and ask her to have sex with him time and time again.

She always ended up asking him for forgiveness. She knew that she was wrong.

Ever since then, no matter what Jasper would do to her, she did not dare try to retaliate anymore.

“Come on, let me touch you.”

The young delinquents were starting to touch her in an inappropriate manner, and Summer was crying as she shoved them away.

*Bang!* Even though Summer had picked up a brick, she did not manage to hit any of the delinquents with it, and one of them ended up grabbing her by the hair and slamming her head against the wall.

Summer instantly felt dizzy, and she helplessly dropped down onto the ground.

Her head was in so much pain that it felt as if it was exploding, and for a fleeting moment, random memories began to surge into her mind.

“Sum, come home with me…”

“Who?”

Whose voice was that?

Who was bringing her home?

    “Could it be that she’s dead?” A young hooligan, who had been the gutsiest among all of them, asked fearfully.The rest of the hooligans freaked out too. They threw the butts of cigarettes on the back of Summer’s hands and quickly fled.Summer’s steps were weak as she returned to her rented place, and she fearfully locked the door from the inside.The room looked a lot different now. There were new sheets and a new blanket on the bed, and the glass window had already been fixed. There was even an air-conditioner.The room was slightly warmer than before.Summer was at a loss for what to do as she stood rooted to the spot, and it was getting harder and harder for her to stop her tears from rolling down her cheeks.Even the doctor who had only met her a few times cared for her. Why… Why was Jasper not willing to treat her better?She just wanted him to treat her a little better...Just a little better… She would be satisfied with that?Why...What did she lack?In the end, Sum

    Summer froze for a moment, and her eyes were filled with tears as she raised her head to look at Jasper.“I didn’t, but on my way home…” Summer tried to explain things.“What’s with your forehead?” Jasper furrowed his eyebrows. He had just noticed the bruise on Summer’s forehead.“N-nothing. It’s nothing. I injured myself.” Summer stuttered as she lowered her head. She no longer wanted to explain things to Jasper.Because it would be meaningless.“Heh, it seems that you’ve managed to get into Adrian’s good books. This place is pretty well-equipped now.” After shutting the metal door, Jasper glanced at his surroundings in disdain, and his gaze became increasingly icy.Summer’s head was lowered, and she said nothing.“Until the baby is born, you’ll have to stay here obediently. If you upset Victoria again by letting her see you, I’ll chase you out of Sea City. Do you understand?”There was a hint of warning in Jasper’s voice as he gripped Summer’s chin and forced her to look up a

    Summer trembled increasingly violently. She no longer believed in whatever Jasper was saying.“Jaz, go ahead and marry Victoria… I won’t disturb you guys. I don’t mind staying anywhere with the baby. I’ll be able to support myself and the baby,” Summer said in a soft voice as she leaned against Jasper’s chest. She was trembling more and more violently.“Sleep!” Jasper said in agitation and covered Summer with the chilly blanket.For some reason, he did not want to tell Summer that he would be giving the baby to Victoria after she gave birth to it.From then onward, the baby would have nothing to do with her.“Jaz, aren’t you leaving?” Summer looked at Jasper in shock. Was he not planning to bully her today?Jasper froze for a moment. Why would he not leave? Why would he stay in this horrible rented house? Had he gone crazy?Summer’s bright eyes slowly dimmed, and she bit her lower lip self-deprecatingly.Why would he stay here?*Bang!* Jasper slammed the door shut after switch

    He opened the glass door, but there was no one outside.Samson raised his hand to massage the space between his brows, and he felt tired as he leaned against the wall outside the door and lit a cigarette.It was as if he had been under a spell lately. He often had hallucinations.“How dare that thief come and ask for the pendant!? She has some serious guts.”“That woman looked quite innocent and pretty. I’m sure she’s able to get a job. Why would she have to resort to being a thief?”The shop assistants were gossiping as they talked amongst each other.Samson tossed the cigarette butt into the trash can, and walked over to the shop assistants, emanating an extremely cold aura as he did so.“What are you guys talking about?”The shop assistants were trembling in terror, they were anxious as they raised their heads to look up at Samson.The man had an aura that was intensely domineering, and they did not even dare try taking a second glance at him. They felt as though their hear

    Summer froze for a moment, and she clutched the fabric of her pants tightly. “No, Jasper did give me money, but I’ve been vomiting a lot, so I haven’t had any appetite.”“No appetite? Don’t you want your baby anymore?” Adrian furrowed his eyebrows, and he was speaking in an accusatory tone.Summer slowly lowered her head as she did not want Adrian to see the tears that were welling up in her eyes. “Doctor, thank you so much. You’re a good person.”Even though Adrian often teased her, he never bullied her for real.“Me? I’m definitely not a good person.” Adrian froze for a moment before chuckling.A good person? Only idiots would think that he was a good person.“Take good care of yourself, silly woman.” Adrian shook his head. He then turned and left.Jasper had always been cruel toward women he did not love. As Jasper’s friend, he was extremely used to this.But for some reason, he felt that Jasper should not be treating Summer this way.After Adrian left, Summer opened the nu

    Summer’s fair face was horribly swollen, and she was so frightened that she kept inching backward.“Stop embarrassing yourself here and get your a*s home!” Jasper clenched his fists, and his words were laced with threats.Summer lowered her gaze to look at her feet and bit her lower lip. “Sorry, I’ll immediately…”If she knew that Jasper and Victoria would be here, she definitely would not have come.Jasper intended to send Summer home without even thinking twice of it, but Victoria quickly walked over to Jasper and grabbed his arm. “Jasper, a lot of people are watching. It would be bad for you if others were to find out that you’re related to a waitress…”Jasper glanced at Victoria and ignored Summer from then on.“Jasper, why don’t you talk to Mr. Ardly for a moment? I need to head to the washroom.” Victoria’s gaze darkened as she stared after Summer.At the garden of the hotel.Summer stumbled out of the banquet hall and was trembling as she sat on a bench.She was not stup

    “Doctor…” There was a violent tremble to Summer’s voice, and she was stuttering as she spoke, “Please, save my baby… Please.”Adrian lowered his head, and the sight made him so shocked that he clenched his fist.The white towel was dyed crimson.“Summer! Summer!”“Please… Save my baby…“Please…”Summer kept begging Adrian, and she was quivering so violently that her entire body was numb.Jasper only cared about whether Victoria was dead or alive. He wished for her death!“Don’t be scared.” Adrian comforted Summer by patting her back as he carried her. “It’s okay, your baby is okay.”The ambulance had arrived. Jasper placed Victoria on the gurney, and his hands and feet were numb as he looked at the crimson towel beneath Summer.A chill ran down his spine.“Summer, if anything happens to Victoria, I’ll never let you off the hook!” He pointed at Summer as he warned her before entering the ambulance and shutting the door with a bang.He had no plans of letting Summer into the

    “I just find it hard to accept the truth. I don’t actually hate you…” After staying silent for a long time, Summer spoke again. “It was… too sudden for me. Give me some time to process this.”Mabel looked at her in shock and covered her mouth. “Sum…”Summer smiled at her and said, “Before I’m able to completely accept it, can I continue to call you Madam?”Mabel covered her mouth in panic and nodded vigorously. “Sure… Call me anything you want…”She actually never cared what Summer called her. It was good enough for her as long as she did not try to avoid her. “Can I hug you?” Summer took the initiative and stretched out her arms. Jasper had told Summer quite a lot about Mabel’s 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 family’s mansion. “Wifey…” Jasper rushed over to her, wanting to give her a surprise. But instead, she did not react. Her face looked pale too. “Wifey?” He panicked and knelt in front of her. “Sum…”He truly panicked this time. ‘Did she find out about something that I did in the past and is now mad at me?’“Jasper, do you care who my mother is?” Summer asked softly. His heart stopped beating for a second. He felt both distressed and relieved. “No, I don’t. I only care about you.”“Why do I care so much, then…” Summer smiled and hugged him tightly. “I shouldn’t care about it too…”“Everyone has something that they don’t have control over. Sum, go easy on yourself.”Summer 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.“Sum…” 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. “Madam, stop cooking. Come and eat,” Summer called out to her softly. Mabel smiled at Summer as she emerged with her favorite dish, cinnamon-spiced beef stroganoff.“Sum, let’s eat.” 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. “Sum, follow me.” After dinner was over, he asked her to go to the study room. “Is Jasper treating you well?” Alaric asked. “Yes, he’s treating me well.” She smiled. ‘If Jasper hadn't been busy and gone to Mountain City, he would be sticking around, bothering me.’“He 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.”“Sum, there’s something that I’ve been hiding from you.

Everyone was immersed in the festive atmosphere of the wedding.  ‘Wouldn’t it be nice if we could stay this happy all the time?’“Hey, should we play a prank on the groom tomorrow? Let’s spice things up a little!” The bridesmaids started planning something.“You guys better be careful. You’re all pregnant. Don’t stir up too much chaos,” Summer said with a smile. “Seriously, it’s as they say: women always side with their husbands once they’re married. Look at you, you’re already siding with him.” A few of them teased Summer.

    After all, this matter was related to Edward’s mother because of her meeting with Hanna’s mother.She sat on the sofa and thought a lot. Would they get a divorce? Would Edward’s father hate her because of this?Edward sat on the sofa and quietly accompanied his mother. “About this matter... Let's not tell Jen first. She may not be able to handle it.”Edward’s mother nodded, in tears. Then, she shook her head. “It was all my fault.”Edward’s father finally came out of the study. Edward looked at his father nervously. He was afraid that his father would blame his mother.“I... 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!” Edward’s mother panicked and started crying. Edward’s father walked to her side. He did not blame her, but passed her a tissue. “Is this how you should behave in front of your son? Stop crying.”Edward’s mother sobb

He wanted not just to live but to prevent his mother from setting up a scheme against him.He was still Rose’s son, even if Rose had used a despicable way to give birth to him.“Let’s go home...” Samson walked toward Charlie and rubbed his head.“Samson...” Charlie lifted his head, and his eyes were red.“From now on, you have not just me, but your friends, younger brothers and sisters, and many older brothers and sisters who love you.” 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 family’s mansion.Melody was carrying her grandchildren and

He was seriously injured and almost lost his life many times because of Summer.”Jasper frowned. “Since he did not want to let Summer know about this, why is he making Summer more distressed?”Jasper admired Aiden a lot because he never showed his love for Summer, but he had silently done many things for Summer.“Jasper, you can just confess if you’re scared.
