The Shaw family house… Years had passed since the last time she was here. This was the place which she both longed for and where she was also humiliated. When she was a girl, she was terrified, even when she walked past this house, worried that the dogs would come out and bite her. When she was seventeen or eighteen, she had been thrown out by the servant with her arms crossed over her chest. Later, she managed to get into music school but had no money to pay tuition, and back then, her mother was also in hospital and needed money urgently. Back then, she secretly came here, trying to contact Old Master Shaw.However, not only did she fail to find him, she was also caught by Mrs. Shaw. Mrs. Shaw brought her to a corner not far from the Shaw residence and threatened her. “In the future, if you try to sneak into the Shaw residence again, I will sell you the dirtiest establishments so that you will never see the sun again.”Back then, she was in utter despair. Now when she recalled
Gloria was staring dazedly at the sight before her eyes. The old man and the young woman in front of her looked like father and daughter, based on their chemistry. Even after decades apart without seeing her, Gloria recognized her with a single glance. The years had not left many marks on Jennie’s features. Jennie was truly blessed by the heavens. She still looked as noble as ever, living a princess-like existence. And what about herself? Bleak and desolate from head to toe; because she was worried about her daughter’s happiness, she left her home without even combing her hair. At that moment, standing in front of such a noble and graceful lady, Gloria truly felt unworthy and inadequate. The old man in the wheelchair, he smiled very happily just now."Your relatives are back?" Gloria asked, her voice hoarse. Old Master Shaw: “…” He saw his own daughter. She was so haggard and so sad. The old man felt as if his heart had been carved out of his chest cavity with a knife. Act
“Uncle, Uncle, what’s wrong? Why did you get so upset the moment you saw this woman? What’s wrong, Uncle?” Jennie asked in concern.Old Master Shaw was still coughing so much he could barely speak, but his eyes were trained on Gloria.Gloria was pale as a ghost. She had pondered the issue throughout the night. She had decided that she would come and question the old man first thing in the morning. Why did he just watch as his niece and her daughter harmed Sabbie? And endlessly at that! Gloria had even decided that, even if the Shaw family wanted her life, she was willing to give it to them. She could die. But no one -- no one -- could steal her daughter’s happiness away from her! These were the thoughts that ran through Gloria’s mind throughout the night. Coming here today, she was already prepared to lay her life down. But at that moment, when she saw how her own father still loved that child, as if she was his own daughter, while she herself, his true daughter, flinched in
Jennie’s tone was harsh, like she was berating her and questioning her, but her dislike stood out the most. Just like how 30 years ago, she disliked the shabbily-dressed little girl who stood in front of the Shaw family residence like a beggar. “I was wondering what happened to my uncle, why did he get so angry all of a sudden? As it turned out, even after so many years, you are still lingering around us!” Gloria did not say anything. “…”“You… Why are you so shameless! It is true the fish stinks from the head! What’s the saying? That children are perfect mirrors of their parents? You and your mother are exactly the same!” Gloria was dumbfounded at the curses Jennie threw her way. Since she was a young girl, she hardly got into arguments with others; she was used to being honest and straightforward. Thus, when she met Jennie who was used to being superior and demanding, Gloria was defeated mercilessly. Moreover, her heart began to bleed when she saw how Old Master Shaw still
‘If you’re still so useless next time, you need to chop off your hands yourself! Think about your daughter and how much suffering she went through; she almost died several times to obtain the happy life she now enjoys. If this life is ruined by someone else, how are all of you going to live on?‘And you yourself How much hardship have you suffered in your life?‘All because of the Shaw family! ‘Gloria Shaw, why are you so afraid of them!’ The 50-year-old world-weary woman looked in the mirror as she sobbed and berated herself, ‘You have lost everything, you’re all alone in this world; what are you still afraid of! In the future, you can’t be afraid anymore, not of anyone!’ She kept encouraging herself. Right at that moment, her phone rang. Gloria lifted her phone and saw that it was a call from her daughter. She immediately answered, “Sabbie, are you at the office, my dear daughter?” On the other end of the phone, Sabrina knew something was wrong the moment she heard her moth
There was a faint, elegant smile on Jennie’s face. “Caught you by surprise, didn’t I?”Gloria: “…”When enemies met, sparks were bound to fly. At that moment, Gloria suppressed the flames in her chest, and remembered what her daughter said to her yesterday. She grew calmer and calmer. She had decided, so what if she was a madwoman? Elegance brought her nothing. Being true to herself and living without regrets were more important. Some people really deserved a beating! “I never expected you to find me here,” Gloria said calmly. The other senior-aged students all looked at each other, confused. Gloria had been a student here for quite some time; she was humble, polite and helpful. Plus, amongst this group of older ladies, she was the youngest. After all, she was still in her 50s and was quite the beautiful woman. That was why the older ladies here all liked this younger lady Gloria. However, that morning, no one expected a younger and more glamorous dance teacher would jo
Then, she was on the run for six years. But Sabrina was so lucky, to everyone’s surprise, she got pregnant with Sebastian’s child! That was why, for the sake of his child, Sebastian had no choice but to find her and marry her.Now Jennie understood why Sean hated Sabrina so much. With a daughter-in-law like her, who would not hate her? If she could get rid of Gloria, then not only could she make a contribution to the Shaw family, she could also make a good impression with Sean. That was why, out of nowhere, she came here early in the morning to teach these elder ladies how to dance. It was almost too easy for her to come here as a teacher. One of the reasons was because she had returned from overseas, and also because she belonged to the Shaw family and arrived in a car driven by the bodyguard of the Shaw family. Who would dare get in her way? Initially, Gloria was not scheduled to attend today’s class, and Jennie was the one who purposely ordered the leader of the dance team to
Due to the lack of oxygen, Jennie’s face was now an unflattering shade of maroon. She coughed non-stop. “Talk! If you don’t, I’ll strangle you to death!” Gloria tightened her grip on Jennie’s neck. Gloria was skinny and looked nowhere near as rich and glamorous as Jennie, but she was half a head taller than the other woman. After all, back then, Old Master Shaw was a handsome young man, tall and lean, while Gloria’s mother Goldie, was a big beauty with the body proportions of a model. That was how Gloria inherited her parents’ good genes. She had long limbs, and even though she was already in her 50s, she still stood at five feet and six inches and above. In terms of height, Gloria had a much better advantage compared to Jennie. Moreover, since she was 19, Gloria started helping her foster parents in the fields. Later after she got married, she worked in a factory, then later after she remarried Lame Scott, she worked in the mountains for more than ten years. That was why, even
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
