Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 404
Jordan was furious. "We don't need the doctors and nurses of Cloudspire Hospital to take care of her. We'll arrange for someone to take good care of her."His expression turned frosty. "Have your people stay away from her. As I thought, someone in the same camp as Jacob can't be good," he said snidely.He still couldn't control the hatred he felt right now."You'd better find out what happened, or I'll make you pay the price. Whether Cloudspire Hospital will be able to continue operating is another matter."What kind of character was Jordan?He was always pretty untamed. He was mixed race; his mother was a foreign dancer, while his father was a wealthy man. Because of his lowly background, he had been abandoned at the orphanage not long after he was born. Since birth, he'd tried to crawl out of the muddy mires he'd been born into. However, because his considerably powerful father had been mocked by others, Jordan had even been harassed by his own father because of his face.Aft

So what was Natalie's purpose in this?Natalie loved Jacob so much; she definitely wouldn't allow another woman to be by Jacob's side, much less allow Liesel to give birth to Jacob's baby. Thus, Jacob didn't have to lift a finger. He just needed to tell Natalie the news so that she would take care of everything.Therefore, Liesel's miscarriage had been because of the herbs.Having achieved her goal on the first try, she grew bolder.She was so jealous of Liesel that she utterly despised the latter. She wanted to quietly drive Liesel crazy and make her even weaker so that Liesel would quietly die like a wilted flower.In Natalie's mind, Liesel was no different than her, just another one of Jeffrey's daughters. How come Liesel had everything and was able to stand at the peak, garnering everyone's respect? How come Natalie had to hide in a dark corner and was not allowed to show herself? Not only that, the man she cared about the most also loved Liesel.Hatred had blinded her. Her

Jordan and Neal stood by Liesel's side. They knew that she was very weak and emotionally unstable right now, so they were very worried that Jacob would hurt her."Lili, we're afraid that something will happen to you."Liesel shook her head gently in response to Neal's concerned comment. "He won't," she said. A small laugh escaped her throat. It sounded like she was laughing at herself and mocking Jacob. "He's fallen for me."Like a foolish bystander, she could clearly feel Jacob's deep love for her. However, his idea of love was different from hers. Her idea of love was giving and offering herself wholly, while his idea of love was to plunder, possess, and hurt.She sat in her wheelchair and allowed Jordan to push her to the elevator. The housekeeper had been waiting for a while now. When she saw her, she immediately greeted her with respect. "Welcome home, Mrs. Ford."Liesel didn't correct the housekeeper. She simply allowed her to lead her into the condo in which she'd lived for

It was like Jacob had completely forgotten about the conflict between him and Liesel.He acted as if they hadn't gone through a divorce, a car accident, and all those other things. It was like they were still a normal married couple."How ridiculous," Liesel thought. "This is truly ridiculous.""Jacob, you seemed to have forgotten about the rifts between us. Do you need me to remind you?" she asked.Her gaze flitted toward the glass of wine, and her heart filled with derision. "Also, I've just suffered a miscarriage. My body is still recovering, so I can't have alcohol."At the mention of miscarriage, Jacob's eyes suddenly turned icy. "Don't bring up the miscarriage in front of me ever again. I thought that you asked to meet because you've finally thought things through."Step by step, he approached Liesel. As he leaned down, his entire body radiated an overbearing pressure. However, Liesel's expression didn't waver.While watching Jacob, she merely hummed quietly. "Yes, I've th

"How dare you, Jacob? You are the culprit and the root of all evil. You should also suffer along with me," Liesel thought.At that moment, Jacob fell into a daze. Rooted to the spot, he was unable to react. He was as still as a statue, and his brain could barely function. The same sentence kept repeating in his head."Jacob, you have murdered your own heir with your scheme."What did Liesel mean by that?He couldn't understand it at all.It's fake. It must all be fake."Liesel, you're joking," he said hoarsely. "That's not true."Liesel's eyes were glittering brightly as she stared at Jacob. "I never betrayed you during our marriage. I was pregnant with your child. That child was our flesh and blood."Jacob, that was our baby. Elijah had nothing to do with it."Jacob's brain had completely frozen. He stared straight at Liesel, but his dark eyes were completely devoid of emotion. He didn't believe it. "When I asked you, you said that it was Elijah's baby! How could it be mine?"

Jacob didn't have the courage to trust Liesel's words. Instead, he called Denzel in front of her.No one but Denzel would know better.When he got the confirmation, his phone slipped from his hand. It fell onto the ground, cracking loudly.He swayed on his feet, shivering from head to toe. He couldn't even clench his fists tightly. His eyes were filled with uncertainty and doubt toward himself."It w—was mine? Why wasn't it Elijah's? Why was it mine? How could he have been my baby?"If that had been his child, then what had he done all of that for?Liesel cocked her head, watching him go through this torment. A little laugh escaped her throat. "Yes, he was your child. You killed your own baby with your scheme. You are a murderer, and the one you murdered was your own baby."She wanted to hurt him with her icy words. She knew that his heart was bleeding right now, but she still wanted to deepen the cuts. She wanted to rub salt in his wounds then stab knives into his heart over an

"Have a look."Liesel handed the document to Jacob."Someone added foreign substances into my medicine, Jacob," she said. "I won't be able to have kids anymore."That was another blow to Jacob's mental state.He flipped through the document quickly. When he finally realized that all of this happened because he'd told Natalie that Liesel was pregnant with his baby, he was in disbelief.In the beginning, he just wanted to make Natalie come up with a way to get rid of the baby. He had never intended for her to do anything more than that.His eyes flickered, and he tightened his grip. The thick stack of papers wrinkled in his hands."It's alright. It's alright even if we don't have kids," Jacob said in a low voice. "The Ford family still has Ophelia. We can adopt Ophelia's kids."His gaze dimmed. "As long as you return to my side."Liesel met Jacob's dark eyes calmly. Without averting her gaze, she said, "I belong to Elijah.""He's already a cripple!"Liesel shook her head gentl

When Jordan burst in, he met Jacob's dark and icy gaze. The latter's cool eyes seemed to carry an internal struggle as he glared at Jordan."If you love Elijah, then tell me who this is," he said, referring to Jordan."No matter who he is to me, it has nothing to do with you," Liesel said calmly.Before she left, she said, "Jacob, remember this. You killed your child with your own hands, and it is your blind protectiveness that left me infertile for life. You are the actual one to blame here."Liesel hadn't said anything that was incorrect.It was because of Jacob's protection that allowed Matthew to become this fearless and enabled Natalie to harm her over and over again. If it wasn't for Matthew, Liesel wouldn't have been forced to this point.Liesel left, and the condo fell quiet once again.Jacob quietly walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows. Through the glass, he watched as Jordan pushed her frail body out in a wheelchair.She was really weak. Even with makeup on, he coul

"You know how it is. It's always hard to strike a deal between two smart people."Charles laughed.He knew that when Liesel suggested a partnership with Ford Corporation to manufacture anti-cancer drugs, it was actually a huge trap.Liesel and Howard were both researchers. Who could say for sure that after they gave Ford Corporation the drug formula, they wouldn't refine the drug further and make something even more effective?Considering Liesel's and Howard's intelligence, there would undoubtedly be a more potent version of the drug. However, Liesel would never choose to continue working together with Ford Corporation. Therefore, he had decided to ask for a mile. He had asked to collaborate on the artificial intelligence project.It wasn't that he was being greedy.It was because Ford Corporation wasn't the same as it had been a year ago. He had to tread very carefully to avoid falling for someone's scheme again.Without Liesel and Drew, there were many tasks that only he and

"Do you not want to hug?" Liesel cocked her head at him. "Don't think I don't know you. I bet you already wanted to kiss me and hold me the moment you spotted Jacob. Otherwise, you wouldn't have tightened your arms around me."Hadn't Elijah done that to send Jacob a message that Liesel belonged to him?Having been together for so long, there wasn't anything that she didn't understand about him."In that case, thank you for giving me a chance and playing along." Since he couldn't think of an excuse, he just came clean. There was even a look of amusement on his face.He pulled her into his arms affectionately. She also hugged him back, like she was a child staking her territory."Should we add some more spice and kiss?"This was really becoming more and more provocative.Why not?A smile appeared on Elijah's face, as if he was saying to her, "Bring it on."And she did. She peppered Elijah's face with continuous pecks. Then, she yanked on his collar, like she was claiming him as

From a short distance away, Jacob could see Elijah's arm curled around Liesel's tiny waist. She seemed very dependent on him as she lay in his arms listlessly. It was a stark contrast to the way she behaved in public with other people.Whether it was with reporters or business partners, she always seemed like a steady pillar of strength. She was graceful and calm, but there was a hidden sharpness within her.Anyone who interacted with her could feel the hidden threat that was lurking inside of her.Yet, the Liesel now seemed to have shed all the sharp spikes on her body, revealing only the soft insides. She appeared gentle and submissive… Or rather, she only showed this side of her to her lover.He should have been the one to get all of this.He should have been her lover.He was the one who'd thrown all of this away. All he could do was watch as Elijah purposely pissed him off.He was a man too. Of course, he knew that Elijah was doing it on purpose.Of course, he resented Eli

Elijah seized Liesel's wrists while chuckling coldly. "So what if you're someone's wife? If I wanted you, all I'd have to do is tell him. Then, he'd definitely have someone clean you up nicely and send you straight into my bed."He lifted her chin with his finger. "Do you think that your husband is a decent man? Do you think that he'd disobey me for you?"Liesel swallowed. She was enraptured by the look in Elijah's eyes right now.He nibbled on her ear while patting her panicked and pale face. "If you're obedient, I'll treat you well. If you're unwilling to play along and make me happy, I'll kill your husband and lock you up in my home. You'll never see the light of day again."Stripping off her clothes, Liesel bit his earlobe and whispered, "It's such a waste that you didn't go into the acting industry with Chelsea."Elijah chuckled quietly, letting her hands roam all over him. They left a trail of fire in their wake. When he was all riled up and ready to go, Liesel suddenly hugg

Liesel left.Charles gazed at the still-warm cup of tea on the table. There was a chilling look in his eyes.This was one of the times he'd made the wrong move.After walking out of Charles' office, Liesel wasn't surprised to see Jacob. However, she didn't even stop and simply walked out.He trailed after her leisurely until she was nearly out of Ford Corporation. Just as he was about to call out to her, he heard a cheerful, gentle voice calling her name."Lili, I'm here to pick you up." Jacob's eyes darkened. When he looked up, he saw Elijah sitting in a wheelchair and smiling at Liesel.Liesel didn't mind at all that he was a cripple. With a grin on her face, she crouched down next to him. Then, she grabbed his hand and placed it against her cheek.Jacob's chest clenched when he saw that. It felt like arrows piercing his heart.Liesel could still feel Jacob's eyes on her, but she didn't care. She even pecked Elijah lightly on the lips in front of Jacob. Then, while pushing

"Charles, even though we worked together for three years, you still don't understand me at all."Liesel tapped her fingers against the desk. While it was quiet, it also sounded indescribably threatening."Have you not seen what happened to Dash?"If someone tries to snatch something from me, not only will I make their wishes come true, but I'll also make them pay the price."You can only take what I give you. If you insist on snatching what I'm unwilling to give… then you will find out the price you'll have to pay."She grinned, but it carried an obvious iciness.Dash was indeed the best example.He had tried to snatch collaboration opportunities from her, so she squashed him. And that wasn't all. She also bought his land and assets from him for dirt cheap.Dash tried to steal her data and establish his own vehicle manufacturing plant in Draskia, so she simply chased him and all his businesses out of Draskia.Anyone who tried to plot against her and steal from her suffered hor

"If you have something that even Jacob doesn't, you must be very loyal to him.""Thanks for the compliment." Charles chuckled quietly. "Of course, I am loyal to Mr. Ford. It's because I'm loyal to Mr. Ford that I kept the evidence just in case."If Matthew decided to betray Mr. Ford one day, then I could use this to retaliate against him. After all, you also know that Matthew is far from a nice person."Jacob placed a lot of importance on Matthew because his parents had passed away early, so he'd been raised by Matthew and Vincent since he was younger. He ended up viewing Matthew as somewhat of a father figure. His love for his family had ended up blinding him, making him unwilling to bring harm to Matthew.However, Charles was different. He didn't have any significant feelings toward Matthew. He only cared about protecting Jacob's interests.Matthew was a selfish person who only cared about his own interests. This was why Charles had gone against Jacob's orders and kept the evi

If it had been Elijah who'd done this, what would Liesel have done?Could she still be so righteous?However, Jacob's words only made her stifle a laugh. Without even turning around, she said sardonically, "If Elijah was this kind of person, then I would never have gotten together with him."Whether it comes to family or lovers, first of all, they should have the right principles. They should know what they should or shouldn't do."Even a child can tell what's right from wrong, but an adult like Matthew doesn't know where to draw the line. Jacob, one day he will pay the price for everything that he's done."In the end, Jacob didn't stop her from leaving.He couldn't help but clench his fists. His eyes darkened.Liesel had always been strongly opposed to evil. Making things worse, Drew was the scapegoat for Matthew's misdeeds this time.Over the years, Jacob had already gotten Matthew out of trouble countless times. He was getting tired of it.He really wanted to call out to Li

Natalie wanted to destroy Ford Corporation as soon as possible.Once there was a new leader in Ford Corporation, would Jacob still be so arrogant?Natalie laughed coldly. Then, she remembered the words she heard in the hospital, and her expression frosted over.She thought that since she was already in the same boat as Edward, and that Edward might become the future leader of Ford Corporation, she could go for him instead.After all, Edward was tall and handsome. In her eyes, he wasn't inferior to Jacob at all.However, she never thought… that Edward already had a lover, and that it was his sister, Ophelia, of all people.Till today, she still remembered how that bitch, Ophelia, had once insulted her because of her background. To defend Liesel, Ophelia had mocked her for being a bastard child.How come Ophelia deserved to be with Edward? They were siblings! Even if they weren't related by blood, they had still grown up as brother and sister. Weren't they afraid of getting expose
