"My mother had always exhausted every way to get me all dolled up before taking me to meet my father. She was hoping that my father would like me a little more and give me a little bit more living expenses. However, Vincent, you won't even be able to imagine how my father had treated me."Vincent felt horrified as he listened to her. He had heard that beasts existed in this world, but he had never really seen one. He mumbled, "It can't be that your dad had…you, right?""It's not like that." Belinda smiled miserably. "He just told my mom, 'Let her have more milk every day and let her complexion be fairer. When she is all grown up and pretty, she will be useful to me. Just like you, her complexion is fair. Her eyes are also like yours. She has a slightly coquettish appearance. You know that the old man, Walter, simply likes this type of girl. Nowadays, I already have nothing much to give him as a gift. If I want to get projects from him, I will have to cater to his taste. He is not lac
"Of course, it's not alright!" At that moment, Vincent was incredibly furious. He was so furious that he had forgotten that he had actually married Belinda. The wedding had just ended. It was just that after he heard about all these absurd things related to Belinda, he did feel sympathetic, but he also was not willing to be taken advantage of.Belinda, however, sneered. "You are already married to me."Vincent was speechless."Also, I have kept a record of where your hometown is, what your brother does, and all the indecent photos of your sister that I had someone take for me! When the time comes, I'll print ten thousand copies of these indecent photos and scatter them on every cover of the campus. Let's see how your sister is going to live!""You!""You have had your eyes on me since a long time ago?"Belinda nodded. "Yes."Without waiting for Vincent to say something else, she said, "You have no parents, and you only have a brother in your family. You don't have much trouble,
Vincent, who had taken a few steps away, knew that Belinda was bullying Helena, but he did not look back. He had to be firm. He had to! His heart, however, was bleeding and crying.After he had taken a pause, he still did not look back, but he called out his wife's name, "Belinda, you're pregnant now. You can't just simply get angry. Let's go.""Alright, dear," Belinda immediately answered sweetly.Upon answering, she jogged toward Vincent and hugged his arm. After that, she looked back and smiled at Helena.At that moment, Helena's heart was bleeding. She was a strong girl. She knew that she was still able to survive even if she no longer had Vincent with her. She had a good educational background, was cultured, and was willing to work hard. She would certainly do very well in the future. Helena then walked away without looking back.However, tears just would not stop streaming down Vincent's cheeks."Don't cry anymore, dear." Belinda felt sorry and wiped his tears for him.She
"He's dead?" Belinda was completely stunned when heard the news for the first time. Immediately after that, she mumbled, "Then who will be giving us money to spend in the future? What should we do? What should we do if we don't have money? My family is not going to give me any money. Not only will they not give me money, but they will even bully me. What should I do? If I had known this would happen, I never would have given birth to this child. I can't even support myself. What should I do?" Belinda sobbed. At that moment, the kind of arrogance of a lady from an eminent family the woman once had completely disappeared. What has been replaced was a pitiful woman who was cowering and not knowing what to do in the future."My family will bully. The old man's family will also not let me off the hook. What should I do?" The woman was trembling. She was not even able to take care of her child anymore. The child kept on crying in the crib, but she did not care at all.After Vincent cam
"If you dare to abandon this child, I will kill you!"Vincent lost his parents during his childhood and had grown up with his brother. Helena was a child who was picked up as well. All of them have had it rough since childhood. Therefore, what Vincent hated the most in his life was the people who abandon their children.Belinda was shocked by Vincent's action. She nodded and said with a grievance, "I don't want to abandon my child as well, but I don't have to raise him.""Do you know how to eat and sleep?" Vincent asked angrily.Belinda was speechless."If you, who have functioning limbs, don't want to work, and you're just going to wait to be fed until the day you die, then what's the point of you being alive? Listen to me carefully. Go out there and find a job. Be it cleaning trash or washing dishes, it'll be fine as long as it's a job! If you don't go and find yourself a job, then just go to hell!" In any case, the old man has already died and her family has also abandoned her.
"If we were to compare the value of ten million dollars from thirty years ago to the value of the present day, it should be estimated to be more than one hundred million dollars," Vincent told his daughter, Yvonne, about his past that happened 30 years ago in his old voice.That was a story in the past that had been sealed. Neither Vincent nor Helena was willing to mention it. More than 30 years have passed, but there were still people who would maliciously dig out this past. Since it had been dug out, both Vincent and Helena had nothing to hide anymore."Dad, is it because of that woman, your ex-wife, Belinda, has gotten ten million dollars and you feel she should already be able to live comfortably, so you divorced her?" asked Yvonne.Vincent shook his head. "No."Yvonne was curious. "Then why?"At that moment, her uncle, Wymond, interjected, "Yvonne, hear your father out."Yvonne nodded and continued looking at her father.Vincent started to recall the past again.More tha
Belinda finally got rich. She no longer has to work and wash dishes anymore. She wanted to go have a proper spa. She was not even 30 years old yet. Her life has only just begun. She wanted to be compensated for all the grievances and injustice that she once suffered.Belinda did not return that afternoon and night.The morning the next day, Belinda, who had returned, seemed like a changed person. She was dressed luxuriously and was exuding the air of nobility all over her body.She did not even look at Vincent directly. She only shot a glance at him from the corner of her eyes. "You better not lose your temper with me and don't even think about divorcing me. It's impossible for me to get married again in this life because no matter who I was to marry, I will be afraid that he will be coveting my money. Since I don't want to marry another man anymore, then you certainly are the best candidate to be my husband. However, don't you stop me from having fun! If you dare to, I definitely w
Vincent looked at Helena in confusion. "What are you talking about, Helena? You mean you and that boyfriend of yours are not real?"Helena smiled miserably. "Yes, Vincent. He and I are just normal friends. He is just a good friend of mine. I didn't want to let you be worried about me, so I asked him to put up an act with me. I thought you would be able to get by a little better. However, I never expected that you would be so miserable."Vincent, I have figured it out that I don't care if Belinda has my indecent photos or whatnot. I don't care at all. If she wants to be released, then just let her do it. After all, she was the one who had set me up back then. I had never done anything from beginning to end. It's true, Vincent. I'm not afraid."I feel this is how God has planned for us. We are all miserable people. If you're not happy, it's also impossible for me to find another boyfriend. Do you understand what I'm saying, Vincent?"Of course, Vincent understood what she said. Howev
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
