"They had had it rough their whole lives, but even so, after Old Master Shaw had passed away, Gloria still kept kneeling here to mourn for his passing. On the other hand, what about those people that we've once helped before? Jennie Gibson? Lori Gibson? Eva Yerbury as well. They are far away abroad, but how far can that be? After Old Master Shaw has passed, Eva and her parents didn't even return to mourn and pay their last respect. That's heartbreaking enough."Hearing his mother being so emotional, Marcus immediately comforted and persuaded his mother. "Mom, you can't blame Eva and her parents for this matter as well. You have to know that when Eva went abroad, she was only five years old. She may not even know how to speak English anymore. Also, she was a child who had left the Shaw family when she was five. How much attachment would she have to the Shaw family? Let's talk about Eva's parents then. Her father has arthritis, and her mother has to take care of him all year long. The f
Eva sneered. "So what if I slapped you? Who do you think you are? Where is such a bitch like you from? How dare you say that I am your family's maid! Do you know who I am? I am a maid of South City's Shaw family! I am the daughter of their maids! I have grown up abroad!"Eva's words were meant for Yvonne's ears, but it was also meant for Sebastian's ears. She wanted to indirectly let Sebastian know about her background! As for the woman in front of her, Eva felt that it did not matter even if she were to beat this woman to death. In any case, the Shaw family would be able to back her up no matter what.Yvonne covered her cheek and she felt more and more aggrieved. "Yes, you are our maid! Am I wrong? The Shaw family has such a great family tradition and is so strict. How could you turn out to be such an arrogant thing?"After all, Yvonne was the Shaw family's young lady of the house! She had to live up to the name of the young lady of the house at all times!"Eva Yerbury! I don't kn
Eva and Sebastian were both stunned."It's you people! That damned Mindy Mann and those sluts, Jennie and Lori Gibson! You as well! It's you people, people who had no relations with the Shaw family at all, that acted all arrogant and snatched away all of my Aunt Gloria's good fortune! Damn you! You damned woman! I have no clue how you got to my brother-in-law's office! I will call the police now to take you away! Get the fuck off, you damned woman who is crazy for men! Don't you think I don't know what you're thinking! You came to my brother-in-law's office to seduce him! Look at how slutty you are! Everyone could tell how slutty you are!"Both Sebastian and Eva were speechless. They were stunned by Yvonne's cursing.In Sebastian's memory, Yvonne had always been a sweet girl. She had been very well protected by her parents, her cousin, Sabrina, and later on, Marcus as well. This girl had always been very kind. She has never compared herself unrealistically to others and never attack
Eva was stunned. "What…did you say?"Sebastian sneered and he did not even take a glance at Eva.Yvonne, on the other hand, came to Eva and said in a very cold and stern manner, "The Shaw family's name had been completely tarnished by you bunch of filthy things! All of you claimed as a member of the Shaw family! A true member of the Shaw family, my husband, the person who had been taking care of the family all his life, would never be like you guys! Since you had received a good quality education abroad, then why did you come back to rely on the Shaw family name! Listen to me, Eva the maid! Old Master Shaw had passed away! The person whom you wanted to rely on can no longer support you anymore! My husband and I are the ones running the Shaw family now! I'm telling you right now that there is no such a person like you in the Shaw family! Go the hell away from here! Also, if you come to seduce my brother-in-law again, I'll break your legs! Fuck off!Ever since Yvonne was allowed to ta
Yvonne immediately became smug after hearing what Marcus said. "Hmph! You still had no clue, right? Not only did I come to your office to be all lovey-dovey with you, but I even went out during office hours. Hmph!"Marcus immediately smiled. He was great in all aspects. He had always been very strict in the company as well. However, his only flaw was that he doted on his wife too much. Yvonne was so spoiled by him that even though she was already a 30-year-old woman, she was still like a child.Everyone in the company knew that Marcus doted on his wife very much and nobody minded as well. In any case, Marcus also never asked the company to arrange for his wife to be in charge of anything important. She was still in the administration department. She did not even get a promotion. It was fortunate that Yvonne had never been ambitious and had never valued her career too highly. It was enough for her as long as she had a job every day. Also, Yvonne had never acted arrogantly in the compa
Marcus did not answer Yvonne's question. Instead, he furrowed his brows as he was unable to figure it out. "Why did Eva return to the country? Why would she appear outside of Sebastian's office? What's going on?"Yvonne said with angry grunts. "I find it very strange as well! Since her family is so close to our family, why didn't they come back to take a look when Grandpa passed away? Was it just because they were the people who had saved Grandma's life? That said, how did Eva's grandfather save Grandma's life?"Marcus sighed. "A few decades ago, which was when my grandpa was young, the Shaw family had always been in the military and politics. At that time, he had been stationed at the borders all year round, and he had offended plenty of criminals surviving at the borders of those lawless regions. Those kinds of people were very cruel. They were no match for my grandpa, so they thought of ways to abduct my grandma. Back then when Eva's grandfather was not the Shaw family's housekeep
"Ruth is my maternal aunt's daughter. She is also a true relative of the Shaw family. But what about Eva? Everybody knew that the Yerbury family were maids of the Shaw family for generations. Which person from high society would be willing to humble himself to marry a daughter of a maid? Unless that man was willing to do so himself and they are truly in love, then that would work. However, how can my grandpa tell if that person is willingly doing so? Only Eva, herself, can fight for this kind of love. How can my grandpa just carelessly agree? My grandpa knew it best that family status was something that had been existing since ancient times. It existed out in the open in the past, but it's in an invisible form now. This was something that can't be helped."In the end, my grandpa truly could not think of a way anymore, so he could only let little Eva and her parents go abroad together. It's considered as letting her further her studies and become a better version of herself. Eva's pare
Eva cried and wailed. She was a couple of years older than Marcus. She had played with Marcus when they were children, but when Eva went abroad along with her parents, Marcus was still young. He actually had not much of an impression of her. The reason why he knew and was able to recognize Eva when she saw her was all because his parents and his grandfather had once spoken to him about her. In addition, when his three brothers sent the photos over, Marcus would occasionally be able to see Eva and her parents.In fact, Marcus would spend some time abroad everywhere. However, it so happened that he never met Eva every time. She would either be in school or attending summer camps, winter camps, or bonfire parties with the other children abroad. She had lived a very free life. She was simply a proper lady from an eminent family. She was living more freely than Marcus, the true young master of the Shaw family. She was such a free girl, so Marcus, the young master of the family, had nothing
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
