Sebastian was taken aback.His intuition told him that something must be up with Sebastian after half a month without contacting each other.Sebastian suddenly remembered that, half a month ago, a woman barged into the Ford Group, claiming that she was looking for him.At the time, Sebastian did not even look at the woman, and had his people send her away.He vaguely remembered that woman saying that she was Alex’s.Was it that woman who had left Alex for so many years, Lily?Probably!Only that woman would dare to act so impudently in front of Alex.Even Jane would not dare.If that woman had returned, then Jane had probably lost her place by Alex’s side.Sebastian felt an unknown feeling in his heart.If it was in the past, he would never have cared about anyone else.He knew that Alex was only temporarily together with Jane, and it was only because the wife in Alex’s heart had gone away. So, Alex merely left that woman by his side to satisfy his needs as a man. It would
“Sabrina? Sabrina?” Sabrina was pale as she said, “Sebastian, if Jane has left Alex’s side, then she will have no one to rely on. She really likes Aino, and Aino likes her a lot as well.”After another long sigh, Sabrina continued, “Back when I was schemed against by Selene, Jane had helped me with Selene so sincerely. I can’t forget this favor.“Sebastian, I will go over to Alex’s place right now to ask where Jane is. I’ll send her to my mother’s place, so they can keep each other company.”Sebastian answered, “Go ahead. I will send Kingston to pick you up right now.”“Okay.”After the call ended, Sabrina said to Yvonne and Ruth in a serious tone, “Jane… Something happened to her!”Yvonne and Ruth gasped.They had just been laughing and joking about Jane potentially pregnant, and now they were fuming.“Alex is too much!”“How could he do this!”“He looks so steady and dignified. How could he just change his woman just like that?”“All men really are trash!” Looking at h
Lily was speechless.It was natural for Lily, since even Sabrina, Ruth, and Yvonne had been stunned by Aino’s rudeness and bossiness.The moment they walked past the threshold of the door, Sabrina, Ruth, and Yvonne had told Aino, “Little girl, if a fierce lady comes out later, you should…”“I will hide behind all of you,” Aino said obediently.“Yes, that’s right. Little kids shouldn’t participate in adult matters, alright!” Ruth told Aino.Aino nodded. “I understand.”As they walked, the little thing had been an incredibly obedient little girl.Before the door opened, the little girl had still been behind them. In the blink of an eye, she suddenly rushed in front of the three of them.She even immediately scolded the woman and called her a bad lady.Gosh!She was even fiercer than the little shrew, Ruth! She was even more explosive than the little firecracker, Yvonne.“Aino!” Sabrina scolded.“Mom, don’t interfere!” Aino had her hands on her hips, and one leg was crooked
This time, the little girl even dared to beat up an adult, and was even issuing orders.More importantly, why were her two friends listening to that girl?Gosh!At that moment, Sabrina was dumbfounded.On the floor, with the four women rolling around, it was definitely Lily who was on the losing end.She never expected that she would be hit by a six-year-old girl. Right after her head was ringing and spinning from hitting the ground, her nostrils suddenly had fingers stuffed into them.It was really painful.Extremely so.It hurt so much that Lily started to wail like a lamb. “Baa, baa.”She was just about to raise her hands and beat up that little girl, but her hands were pressed down by two women.The two women even used their feet, stepping on her hands with one foot each.In all of Europe, and even in the whole world, she had walked around doing whatever she pleased even in bloody bars like the one in Europe. Yet, here, in a place she called her own home, she was being p
Everyone stopped.When Sabrina looked back, an unshaven Alex, with an incredibly sunken expression, was standing thereGosh!It had just been half a month! How did Alex become that way?He was always well-dressed, well-mannered, and calm. No one could ever guess what was on his mind. He always looked peaceful on the surface, but he was actually extremely capable.But what about now? He looked like a sloppy and unkempt man.Even though he looked like that, his voice was still cold enough to make everyone shudder.It was as if they had walked into a freezer.The three of them who were beating up Lily immediately stopped in fright.However, Aino immediately saw that her father was behind Uncle Alex.She was incredibly happy, and gave Lily’s nostrils one last forceful tug.Lily’s nostrils had been pulled by as much as five centimeters before they rebounded back.“Ah… You despicable child!” Lily cried out in agony.Aino immediately ran to her father and climbed up onto him.
They looked like trumpets. Her nostrils were so large they could be used as funnels. On her swollen face, she was incredibly ugly. She really looked like a pig. Gods! There were also her bleeding lips. And her tongue. Alex had never looked at her in this state before! Even if it was not Alex and someone else, they would have probably kicked her away in disdain as well. No wonder those cursed women were laughing.“Ah…” Lily let out an incredibly anguished cry from upstairs. On the other side, Sabrina, Yvonne, Ruth and Aino looked at Alex innocently.“Mr Poole, I’m sorry, today, Aino…” Sabrina glanced at Aino.Aino immediately said, “Who asked that thief to call me a despicable brat! She even said that Aunt Jane is dead! Who is she? Why is she in Aunt Jane’s home? Why did she run upstairs? Quickly call the police to catch her, she’s a thief!”Sabrina said, “My friends said that Aino was in trouble, so…”Facing the silent Alex, Sabrina stopped explaining. He liked the silence an
Where was Jane? Alex was speechless. He ended the call before answering Sabrina. Sabrina lashed out. “Hello! Hello! You jerk! I always thought you were a good man, a prudent…”Even though she knew he had already hung up the phone, Sabrina still continued shouting at him from her end. Sebastian took the phone from her. “Give him time to sober up. I’ll ask him again after he’s calmed down.” Sabrina sighed. “Well, that’s all we can do.” With that, the group of them entered the car and drove away from Alex’s summer house. Alex stood on the balcony and watched as they left. Leaving the balcony, he went to Lily Parker’s room.Lily never thought Alex would come in, so she had not bothered to lock the door. At the sight of him entering her room, her face flushed red. But even if she was blushing, it was not noticeable at all. Her face was now the ugly dark maroon of a piece of pig’s liver, as a result of the beating she had suffered under the hands of Aino, Ruth, and Yvonne. Lily imm
Alex switched to another venue, and ordered three bottles of sprites at one go. There was no one else in the spacious private room except himself. Just like that, he unhappily downed glass after glass. His vision was a blur. His mind was heavy, but his feet felt light, unable to support his weight. In his mind, the memories of the life he shared with Jane kept replaying like the reel of a movie.In his dreams, he still saw the scenes of his shared life with Jane. She was a woman of few words. When he remained quiet, she would never disturb him. She was also very attentive. Seeing him come home alone, tired and weary, she would immediately rush to him and help him take off his trench coat, then with a hand on his shoulder, help him sit down on the bench in the doorway. He did not have to do anything.She would personally help him remove his shoes, and slip into a pair of slippers. He did not even have to wash his hands, all he had to do was sit quietly in the kitchen, and she wo
In a blink of an eye, Aino was already 18.She was already going to college.Her husband, Mister Ford, already had gray hairs on his sideburns and was already a man who was pushing 50.Both Sebastian and her had gone through thick and thin together for almost twenty years.That was so fast."Old man," Sabrina called out.Sebastian turned her head to the side and looked at Sabrina. "What did you just call me?"Sabrina smiled. "Isn't that right? You're going to be fifty next year, and I'm only in my early forties. I'm not an old lady, but you are a proper old man! Let me ask you something. Your sideburns have turned gray, are you going to dye your hair on our wedding day?""I'm not going to! I simply want others to say that an old man like me is marrying a young wife! Listen to me. You'd better stop dressing up and putting on makeup in the future!" Sebastian said to his wife, who looked ten years younger than him.How unreasonable!This old lady simply has not aged a day since
Yvonne hugged her children and lifted her head to look at her mother. At that moment, she was incredibly excited. She was both excited and aggrieved, which made her cry inconsolably. She rushed into her mother's arms. Immediately after, her father also hugged both her and her mother. The family of three was finally reunited. No, it should be a family of five at that moment. It would be a family of six with Marcus included. The family of six hugged each other and cried so much that the people at the side could not help but cry as well. Even the nurse also teared up.It was after a long while that Yvonne's parents let go of her."Alright, my child, let's go home. Let's go home."Helena raised her head and looked at Yvonne. Her child did not have her original face anymore, but she was truly her child. After her child went missing for five years, she finally got her child back. During that time, Yvonne got a rare condition that was hard to cure in any part of the world, but she was cure
After everything, all of it, was handled, Marcus suddenly burst out in tears."What's the matter, my son?" Missus Shaw has lost three sons and he was the only son left by her side. When she saw her son crying like that, it was only natural that she felt very saddened."Mom…I just feel that karma really is a funny thing. It's really making a fool of all of us! It turned out that everything was already destined. Everything was destined!" Marcus was covered in tears.Missus Shaw was confused. "What's the matter, my child?"Marcus cried and then he smiled. "Mom, I've finally understood why God let Yvonne go through this disaster that lasted for five years. It turned out that God had given her the biggest hardship which seemed so inhumane, but God had given her the best reward. Otherwise, the person who truly died would've been my Yvonne, wouldn't it? I would've been my Yvonne."Hearing him saying that, Missus Shaw said extremely emotionally as well, "That's right. At the end of it all
The fake Yvonne was still conscious the second before she died. She watched herself fall over with her eyes widened. She never would have expected it. After she had plotted everything, she was only one step away from the wedding, and then she could have replaced the real Yvonne and truly be a part of the high society of South City and be the wife of a rich man. However, she was fatally shot. Who was it?There was no time for her to look into it in detail before she fell to the ground. All of her regrets were forever sealed in her body. Without even a cry or shouting, she fell to the ground. She was feeling so reluctant to accept defeat that her heart had already stopped beating but her eyes were still wide open.Marcus was also stunned. He did intend to have Bonnie's entire gang arrested in one go, and he had already done it. The police were simply there that day to have this group of people surrounded. However, never in a million years would Marcus expect that someone would kill Bon
Two female attendants wheeled out a completely sealed glass cart. The ring that was carefully kept inside the glass cart was truly colorful and dazzling. Every side of the gem was radiating in different colors as the light shone upon it through the glass chart. The fake Yvonne was stunned silly when she saw it. Another person who was also stunned silly was the tan and fat man holding a pair of binoculars while sitting in a car across from the jewelry store.The tan and fat man muttered, "Gosh! This man must love her so much. He actually is willing to spend so much on her! This woman really deserves to die! She deserves to die too much!"Inside the jewelry store, Marcus looked at the fake Yvonne gently. "Do you like the ring I'm giving you?"The fake Yvonne was so excited that tears streamed down her face. "I like it. I love it too much! I truly love it so much!""I should've given you this ring four years ago. It was such a pity that at that time…""It's fine, hubby, it's fine. Is
All thirty people in the banquet hall were stunned. At that moment, they still have not made sense of what the hell has happened. How come a group of police came in once Yvonne left? Did they arrest the wrong people?"No, officer, we're…friends of Master Marcus of the Shaw family in South City. We've saved his wife. Master Marcus even said he is going to give me two apartments as gifts. Did you…have the wrong place?" Bella boldly asked the police at that moment.Nobody answered Bella. A few police officers came up and confiscated all of their phones. Not a single one was left behind.Bella could not hold herself back anymore and said while trembling, "We're Marcus' friends. He is not an ordinary person in South City. If Marcus knew that you've arrested us, when the time comes…"A police officer sneered. "The people we're arresting are all of you, the group of Marcus' friends!""Huh? Why?" Bella did not understand. Actually, she was not too familiar with the law. She just knew tha
"A billion dollars! Isn't he just insulting us, the three Shaw brothers? Marcus loves this bitch so much! When I see her looking so happy, I just want to kill her immediately! I have to have her killed!"At this end of the call, the tan and fat man asked Marcus' eldest brother very respectfully, "Sir, as long as you give an order. Just tell me, how do you want to get this woman killed? Why don't I kill her now?""No!" Marcus' brother stopped him and said. "It's not the best time now. There are too many people in there, so it's not going to be easy for you to escape. I only have a loyal servant like you. I can't let you die. You have to find a place outside that you can easily run away after getting the deed done. Now is not the right time!"The tan and fat man instantly said, "Alright, Sir, whatever you say. I'll find an even messier place and have this woman killed! I'll be hanging up now, sir!"After he hung up the call, the tan and fat man continued watching everything inside th
When Bella heard Marcus saying that, she immediately said shyly, "Gosh, how can I trouble Master Marcus in everything? No…there's nothing else.""Come on, Bella, whatever difficulties you have, just say it. My husband is the second most powerful person in South City anyway. There's really nothing he can't do." The fake Yvonne lifted her head and looked at Marcus coquettishly. "Am I right, hubby?"Marcus looked at the fake Yvonne very dotingly. "Baby, what do you think? I'm a husband that you've picked, so could you have been mistaken?""That's right!" The fake Yvonne happily leaned her head on Marcus' shoulder. Marcus hugged the fake Yvonne and was feeling so disgusted that he almost threw up. This Yvonne and his Yvonne indeed look very alike. They looked extremely alike! If this Yvonne did not speak and remained quiet, Marcus would feel that this is his Yvonne and his wife whom he had been thinking of all day and all night. However, the real Yvonne would never make such a request o
Of course, the fake Yvonne agreed. Three days later, they held a banquet for the fake Yvonne's benefactors at the most luxurious hotel in South City. Some of them were out-of-towners. There were also some from South City. Marcus roughly scanned them and surely, the middle-aged woman was there. She was the woman who was staying in the same area with Mila back then and the one who suggested letting Mile do a DNA test.Marcus held the fake Yvonne's hand and came to the middle-aged woman. "Miss, do you still recognize me?"The fake Yvonne immediately introduced her to him. "Darling, let me tell you, this is the lady who had helped me the most. Her name is Bella Hughes. She has always been taking great care of me, including the time I had a miscarriage. She was the one who took care of me. I feel we should give her two apartments!"The middle-aged woman named Bella immediately waved. "No need, no need. There's really no need for that. To be able to escort you back to your husband's side
