After she had hung up the phone, Selene hurried back to Old Master Shaw’s ward.Old Master Shaw was treated in Kidon City because he was a pivotal political figure when he was young. Although he had retired now, his privileged treatment was still the same.Not many people in the entire country could match the kind of treatment Old Master Shaw received. Moreover, Old Master Shaw still had many old subordinates working in Kidon City now. As a result, when Old Master Shaw fell ill this time, he was sent to the best military hospital in Kidon City to be treated. Old Master Shaw had not been seriously ill before because he had been taking care of his body at home, so he had quite good health. However, this time, the reason for his serious illness was that he was angered by the naughty girl, Aino, when he went to the Ford Residence as a guest three weeks ago. He did not feel uncomfortable until the middle of that night when Old Master Shaw began vomiting blood and felt a tightness in
However, Old Master Shaw said earnestly, “If you didn’t marry Sebastian, then who could you marry? Nigel? Do not forget that Nigel and Mindy would be wedded soon. If Nigel and Mindy did not get married, the Conor family had almost entirely been acquired by the Ford family. Looking through the entire South City, nobody could compete with Sebastian.”Selene said, “Grandpa…”Old Master Shaw looked at his beloved granddaughter. “Selene, even if you wished to find a person who could match Sebastian in Kidon City, there would not be many, let alone South City. Alex would be considered one, but he already had a girlfriend. However, Sebastian did not have a girlfriend, my child!”Selene instantly bursted out in tears. “Grandpa, but… I had waited for Sebastian for six years. He didn’t like me, and there was Sabrina in front of him. Although Sebastian did not love Sabrina, she still gave birth to his child. Sebastian already knew that the Lynn family had deceived him back then, so he would no
Selene was instantly startled when she heard that voice. She then immediately changed to a pleasing smile and turned to look at Marcus, “Marcus…”Marcus looked at Selene with an extremely disgusted expression. “Grandpa is so sick, and he was sick because of you, but you didn’t even have the slightest sense of guilt and heartache. You could still hum a tune and smile.”“It wasn’t like that, Marcus…” Selene wanted to defend herself forcefully.However, she was stopped by Marcus. “Don’t make such a face in front of me! I don’t know what kind of method your Lynn Family had used to confuse my grandpa, but remember this, Selene, you better take good care of my grandpa. If there was anything wrong with my grandpa, did you think you could keep your position in South City? You better pray for yourself!”Marcus did not pay attention to Selene anymore but went straight in to visit his grandpa. The Shaw family has a lot of sons. Marcus alone had three elder brothers. Although they were curre
After he was rebutted by his father a few times in a row, Marcus indeed had no way to explain. That was true!His grandpa had seen Sabrina with his own eyes, but he did not think Sabrina looked like his aunt. Why was that?Marcus was puzzled. However, deep down in his heart, he felt that Sabrina must have some relations with his aunt. Definitely! He was waiting for his brothers to return home. Once they returned home, he would bring his brothers to have a look at Sabrina together. If they all felt that Sabrina looked really similar to their aunt’s photo, then Marcus would be right. Before his brothers returned home, Marcus honestly could not do much alone.He could only let Selene bounce around freely the Shaw family with arrogance and complacency.If he wanted to help Sabrina, Marcus could only give Sabrina a helping hand privately.Old Master Shaw fell asleep after Marcus fed him lunch and coaxed him to sleep for a while. Marcus freed up his time and gave Sabrina a cal
Sabrina turned her around and saw that it was indeed Linda who was ridiculing her. Sabrina said with an unwaveringly calm tone, “Linda, were you envious of me? You were envious that I had climbed on top of you when I was a newcomer, and you were envious that I was younger than you, but I had gained more male admirers than you. How have you been getting by? How could you be so defeated?”Linda was speechless. She noticed more and more that Sabrina had a sharp tongue, and she was not easy to mess with. As soon as Sabrina finished her sentence, Nigel then spoke up, “Did you think that I, Nigel Conor, was from a declining family and had no more power? You dared to crap all over me! No matter how bad I was, if I wanted to crush you, I could still crush you like ants! All of you would have the case of sour grapes!“Which one of your eyes saw that Sabrina and I were having an affair?“Was it possible that if you, the kind of bitter woman that nobody wanted, met a male acquaintance on
On the other end, Marcus said, “Alright, you may get on with your work first.” He ended the call. After he hung up the call, Marcus muttered to himself, “Sabrina, you were such a disciplined girl. You would not easily take things from others, but I would give you a surprise. You had Zayn, your brother who was kind, pure and valued relationships and loyalty, to take care of you for the first six years. I would also take over the baton from Zayn from now on. Don’t worry!”Of course, Sabrina could not hear these words from Marcus. After she hung up the call, Sabrina raised her gaze and looked at Nigel. “Master Nigel, we spoke at the café yesterday. What other matters did you have for you to come looking for me today?”“Sabrina, good news! I had some news about your brother!” Nigel said excitedly.It was just yesterday night, after Nigel fought with Mindy, he ran out in a fit of anger to drink alone. When he was drinking alone, he unintentionally overheard the conversation between a
Sabrina asked Nigel with a trembling voice, “Master Nigel, take me to see my brother. Would that be okay?”The way she looked when she was pleading with Nigel appeared to be incomparably anxious and pitiful in the eyes of the few male colleagues. It was the anxious feeling of losing the closest relatives. The male colleagues could understand Sabrina.They did not see any misbehavior between Sabrina and Nigel. Instead, what they saw was Sabrina looking for her brother. They really could not resent her for being such a sister who valued familial relationships so highly.Over on this side, Nigel nodded, “Mmm, I would take you there now!”Sabrina grabbed her bag and went out with Nigel. She was in a rush and did not manage to inform the director and punch out. She hurried off. When Sabrina had left the design department, the few male colleagues from the department started to converse with each other.“I noticed that you women were just looking for something to do. You’ve had too muc
Nigel bit the bullet and told the male doctor about what he had heard yesterday. The doctor was stunned at first, then he blushed. After all, he was a doctor and had to pay attention to his image. However, his private life was so unacceptable by the common customs of the world.“Don’t worry, doctor. My sister and I would never tell anyone about it. We swear by our character that every kind of romantic relationship in this world was worthy of respect. We only wanted to know if our relative was well or not,” said Nigel sincerely.The doctor breathed a sigh of relief. “The hospital was located overseas. Although it was located abroad, it was a very advanced hospital jointly opened by several countries. I was only in there for a week for my training. I wanted to stay there to work, but I was not qualified enough, so I was not hired.”“However, I had seen with my own eyes a young man who had paraplegia with nerve necrosis could walk while holding on to the wall after surgery. He coul
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
