Mindy followed the voice and looked in its direction. The ones who came in the door were Sabrina and Sebastian. Also, behind them, Yvonne was holding the hands of the little child, Aino. ‘Why are they here?’ Old Master Shaw purely wanted to create an opportunity for Mindy and Ryan to get along today. He never wanted to invite anyone else. When he saw that Sabrina and Sebastian had come, Old Master Shaw was obviously upset. However, Sabrina did not mind at all. She held onto her husband’s arm, slowly came to the front of Mindy, then said seriously, “Mindy, look who’s at the door.” Mindy turned her head around and she saw a woman standing at the door. The woman was in her forties. She had big wavy curls and an aura of a woman that lived a lifestyle of debauchery. It was her! The lady boss of that shady hotel. Mindy forced herself to pretend to be calm and questioned Sabrina, “Why did you bring her here?” “To ask for payment!” Sabrina retorted without hesitation.
If people from the entirety of South City knew that Mindy used borrowed money to dress herself up, then could she still live in the future?“It’s her?” Sabrina sneered. “Mindy, the clothes that Ruth is wearing from the top to bottom are less than ten thousand dollars. On the other hand, your clothes, including your bag, cost more than a million dollars. Where did you get your millions of dollars from?”Mindy was speechless. “Speak!” Sabrina asked without yielding. “I… My uncle and aunt saved up for me,” Mindy mumbled haltingly“Haha!”Behind her, Ruth suddenly cried. She asked while she cried, “My dad and mom saved money for you to use? Mindy Mann, my dad and mom have never had good jobs in their lives. My family was so poor that I never got to buy any new clothes, and I only wore your hand-me-downs. My parents only knew how to play poker and gamble when I was young. If they won, then they would treat me a little nicer. If they lost, then they would hit me when they returned ho
Sabrina was speechless. She looked at Mindy with a calm expression. “What is it?”“I have been hiding a secret in my heart all along. A secret that nobody knows. Regarding this matter, Selene only told me alone, and I am now going to tell you this secret. However, I have a condition. You let me off the hook this time. How about that?” Mindy pleaded with Sabrina with an incomparably eager gaze. Sabrina shook her head. “Mindy, you owe people money after all. I can’t help you with this.”“You can! You definitely can! As long as you’re willing, you can definitely help me. You are Master Sebastian’s wife. The almighty Master Sebastian’s wife. You can definitely help me. If you help me this once, I will trade this secret with you. How about that?”Sabrina was speechless. After pausing for a moment, she asked, “What aspect is it regarding?”“Your mother,” said Mindy.Sabrina was stunned. If it were something else, Sabrina would have thought that Mindy was lying. However, Mindy ha
Besides, the piercing pain of her bottom was unbearable, so Mindy could not care to counterattack against Aino.In this case, Aino has taken a big advantage of Mindy. After Aino’s sudden explosive series of continuous punches, both of Mindy’s eyes instantly turned into raccoon eyes.Her eyes became as black as coal, and the parts of her eyelids and eyeballs could not even be told apart.The situation was quite comical.The people present in the room could not help but laugh at her.Marcus also laughed, but his mother, who was behind him, was sobbing. Marcus then turned her head around and consoled his mother, “Mom, there are many things that I can't clarify with you in this short a time. I have always had a suspicion."Mrs. Shaw asked, "What suspicion?"Marcus seriously asked, “Mom, you know my aunt and uncle well. Tell me in your own words, are my aunt and uncle such willful and vicious people?”Mrs. Shaw shook her head.Marcus let out a long sigh.Mrs. Shaw immediately thou
“Mindy indeed is at fault, but she is right about one thing,” Old Master Shaw looked at Sabrina incomparably harshly, and recklessly criticized, “This woman, she was never any good!”Sabrina said, “I hope you will never regret what you said! Old Man! Your lifelong education was for nothing! Your whole life of good family values is all an act!“It’s all pretend!“It’s false!“Your honors are all obtained through improper channels!“I suddenly understand why your daughter ran away from home!“Because she thinks a man like you, who fished for honor improperly, is not worthy of being her father!“You’re not worthy!“You d*mned old fool!”Sabrina had a face full of tears when she scolded Old Master Shaw. She seldom cried since she was a kid because she knew crying would not solve her problems.However, at this moment, Sabrina’s eyes were flooded with tears.Why was she crying?Was it because this elder in front of her has repeatedly framed her or was it because of her mother?
“Don’t come over here! I hate you! Hmph! I will hate you forever! I feel disgusted when I see you!’’ the little girl furiously roared at Old Master Shaw. In a sudden moment, the roar had awoken Old Master Shaw. The little girl in front of him was the daughter of his granddaughter's enemy.How could he develop an affection for this little girl? Old Master Shaw raised his head and looked at Sebastian, and he was still stern as said to Sebastian, “Sebastian, you’ve also seen it; even the child has been badly influenced by her. Just the things that she had done to my granddaughter alone… You tell me, how can I still support you? The only thing I can do and the only way to protect my granddaughter now is to give my full support to Star Island to defend against your invasion.”Hearing the old man say that, Sabrina sobbed even harder. “You and your granddaughter are the same! Simply shameless!”The old man looked up at the sky. “I have never done anything against my conscience in my
Sebastian sat up abruptly. “What’s wrong, Kingston?”“Master Sebastian, I finally found that…” Kingston originally wanted to say ‘homeless woman’, but he changed the words just as it came out of his mouth, “that madam’s house.”“What?” This time, Sebastian was completely stunned. Sabrina, who was in his arms, could not help but ask, “What’s wrong, Sebastian? Is it the company’s business? You’ve been busy enough recently, but I still asked you to follow me to the Shaw’s and back me up.”She felt sorry while looking at her husband. Sebastian shook his head. “I’m going out to deal with some urgent matters.”Sabrina nodded. “Go ahead. Don’t tire yourself out too much.”“Sleep tight. You will see a surprise first thing tomorrow morning."Sabrina’s slightly tired voice suddenly asked in surprise, “Really? I’ll wait for your surprise.”“Sleep tight!”“Okay!”She was truly sleepy. She had spent the whole yesterday comforting Ruth, and she even put her work aside. She then stayed u
“That’s impossible! My eyes did not fool me, I saw her entering!” Kingston felt that he had truly seen a ghost. Sebastian shook his head. “The night was long, and we took a little nap. The person could have run away then. She must be intentionally hiding from us. If she does not want to be found by us, and we came with such an imposing line-up, we will certainly not find the person."His tone has a tinge of disappointment. When he left the house last night, he even told Sabrina he would give her a big surprise in the morning. Looking at the situation now, he definitely could not give her the surprise he promised this morning.“Leave a person to quietly and secretly observe this place. Everyone else, leave!” Sebastian said with no expression on his face. “Yes! Master Sebastian!” Kingston felt particularly sorry. Fortunately, Sebastian's temperament was very much milder now.If it were in the past, even if Sebastian did not say anything, Kingston would have already gone to a
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
