Amy cried, tears covering her face.However, Thaddeus still maintained his cold yet calm expression. He seemed to have carefully considered this decision and wasn't being impulsive in the slightest. "Have you not considered that this would happen when you did such vicious things to your own sister?" he asked. Amy remained stubborn. "I've never thought about harming Jessie! She's my sister! We share the same blood. How could I bring myself to harm her? I was just speaking out of anger. I didn't expect my mom to take my words seriously!"She now pinned the blame on Margaret and made herself seem like the innocent one. She cried so miserably that Thaddeus would've believed she was innocent if he hadn't discovered the truth.Thaddeus feared women crying the most. In the past, he would relent as soon as Amy cried. But now, he only found her actions mocking. He felt as if she had mocked his intelligence.Amy was too good at faking things. She had assumed a pure and beautiful facade,
Thaddeus shoved the pill into Amy's mouth without even giving her some water. Amy tried to spit it out, but the pill had already gone into her stomach. She slumped on the ground in utter despair.After making sure that she swallowed the medicine, Thaddeus stayed there for another half an hour, probably because he was afraid that she would try to throw up the pill.Half an hour later, he returned to the car and told Jordan, "Go to the mental hospital."After getting his orders, Jordan immediately drove to the hospital where Margaret was staying. He was overjoyed to see Thaddeus finally pull himself together and teach that bitch Amy a lesson. It was unfortunate that Jessamine couldn't be alive to see it.It was night, and dark clouds had covered the city. It had probably been a while since it rained, so it was now raining heavily.Soon, they arrived at the mental hospital.Thaddeus opened the door and got out of the car, holding a huge black umbrella. He looked at the hospital un
Margaret tried to argue, "Who are you people? How can you arrest someone for no reason?"The police officer scoffed, "We don't show mercy to murderers like you. It's only a matter of time before we arrest you. Accept the law's punishment!"Margaret struggled, "Let go of me! I never harmed anyone! I'm a lawful resident! You can't just arrest anyone you see! I'm going to report you people for police brutality!"As she cried, she was dragged and pushed into the squad car.The leading police officer approached Thaddeus. "Mr. Holt, we'll let you know about the progress of the case. Thank you for the report. If you have more information, please send it to us. We'll seek justice for the victim.""Thank you." Thaddeus was terrifyingly cold on this stormy night. He looked at Margaret, who was still struggling in the police car, and trembled with anger. He was going to make her suffer.After the police left, Thaddeus returned to the car. "Tell the people in prison to show her the greates
Thaddeus heard the screams and strode closer to the bathroom. Clara was staring in horror at the giant teddy bear on the bed. Thaddeus asked her to look after Amy, but she went missing under her care once more.Thaddeus frowned when he saw the empty bed.Clara knew that she was in trouble and was about to cry. Ever since Amy disappeared all night that day, Thaddeus had repeatedly ordered Clara to make sure Amy never left her home. She couldn't go outside, and no one was allowed inside their home.Clara was in tears as she said seriously, "Mr. Holt, Ms. Quilton was still here in the middle of the night. She said she had a stomach ache and wanted me to get her some water. How could she have gone missing in that amount of time? "Mr. Holt, I really didn't let her leave. I've been so cautious even since you gave me that reminder. I slept very lightly, but I never heard the door open at all."Things were still fine when Clara never mentioned what happened last time, but now that sh
Upon hearing that Jessamine was going into labor, the Pattons became excited and followed her to the hospital. The two babies were in a breached position, so the doctor recommended a C-section.Coincidentally, it was New Year's Day. At the dawn of the new year, two babies were born, a boy and a girl. Gloria loved them so much. The Pattons hadn't had new additions to the family for several years, so she loved both of the children, no matter what gender they were. The twins were extremely good-looking, with long eyelashes and beautiful skin like Jessamine's. Even at birth, everyone could tell that they had large eyes.Since Jessamine had a C-section, she now had another scar on her body.The Pattons immediately registered their names under their family. Their names were Lucas Patton and Layla Patton.After a month, Gloria held a party to celebrate the twin's birth regardless of Jessamine's protests, inviting every possible celebrity in Hajera. It would be a pity if they never cel
The newcomer, Jerome, was stunned. Then, he looked her over again. He knew it was rude to do so, but he couldn't hold back his surprise.There couldn't be two people who looked so alike. Jessamine didn't have a twin, either.The woman before him looked more indifferent than before; her hair was shorter, and he could see an unhealed scar under the dress strap on her shoulder. Her feelings of alienation were exactly the same as before.After the car accident half a year ago, everyone believed that Jessamine was dead. Thaddeus, in particular, had trouble moving on from her death. Jerome never had any doubts about Thaddeus' behavior. He even went to pay his respects at the grave Thaddeus made for Jessamine. After all, he had regarded her as a goddess ever since he fell in love with her.He still remembered that shocking feeling upon meeting her for the first time. He had never felt that way in his life. His heart pounded so much that it was almost out of control. After finding out
After thinking about it, Jessamine decided to start over with a new alias. This meant her previous achievements would be null and void, and she had to start everything from scratch.As soon as she told her family her plans, Xander immediately offered to start a jewelry design company for her. He even found a location that could house her office. It was in a high-rise building that his company had developed. A company happened to relocate, so a few floors of that building were vacant.Jessamine was shocked. "Xander, you don't have to make such a big deal out of it. I haven't even made concrete plans yet. Besides, I want to start from the bottom up."In the three years Jessamine was married to the Holt family, she met many prominent figures among the wealthy. Many of those wealthy ladies pursued their careers with the support of their families. However, other people never acknowledged these ladies' capabilities at all. Everyone just assumed that these wealthy ladies had just rel
Sometime later, Jessamine hired two assistants, and Jaricles Design Studio officially opened its doors.On opening day, Xander sent a lot of baskets of flowers to congratulate her. Jessamine wanted to keep a low profile and start her own business. Therefore, he respected her decision and refrained from doing anything despite being anxious to help her. He was also looking forward to witnessing Jessamine's capabilities for himself.Jessamine was sorting the bookshelf in her office while her assistants, Carly Summers and Judith Callaway, were decorating the office area with the flower baskets, all of which were sent by Xander. Carly arranged the flowers neatly and looked at the last oversized flower basket in a daze.Usually, flower baskets were more than three feet high, but the last one was at least six feet high. It wasn't a basket at this point, but a barrel. It didn't look like Xander bought them from a florist. He seemed to have had this batch of flowers specially customized. I
