Sophia stared at Ethel for a long time and started to understand what she was going through. As an outsider, all she felt was relief when she saw the sorry state the wretched couple was in. Ethel, on the other hand, probably hoped to part on good terms on the day of divorce.

As his ex-wife, Ethel would not feel happy if Brandon did something shameful.

Pondering for a while, she asked, “With Elliot’s help, I believe the court will hear your divorce case very soon. We have ironclad proof that he cheated on you, he transferred assets before you guys were married, and he physically abused you very frequently.

“It’s very likely he’ll win nothing from the divorce. Abusive men like him can’t even get child custody. So, how do you want to move forward?”

Lowering her head, Ethel spoke after a brief pause, “I don’t want to be that cruel to him anymore. All I want is a clean divorce.”

Elliot shot his sister a disdainful look. “Why did we put ourselves in all that trouble if all you wanted wa

    Brandon said, “I know you don’t actually want a divorce. I’ve been doing a lot of thinking. It’s so not worth it to ditch my family for the sake of some random lady. I regretted my decision for a long time. Let’s call a truce, honey. I’ll admit it. I can’t bear to live without you.”Ethel squinted. She was not sure what he was planning. She tried probing again, “I’m not going to take away everything from you. Read the agreement. We’ll split the properties. Rest assured, I won’t try to pull one over you.”He held her shoulders, looking affectionate, and said, “I’m not after the properties. I truly see it now. I know who my real family is. Please forgive me, honey. “I’m sure you know that, sometimes, men couldn’t help but think the grass was greener elsewhere. I think you’ll agree that I woke up just in time. So, give me another chance, and let me show you my actions in the future.”She broke out of his restraints and sneered. “You woke up just in time? How do you have the audacity

    Ethel answered vaguely. She knew her brother was mad at her for turning soft and squandering everything Sophy had planned for her.The fact that Brandon forced himself on her was karma getting back at her. She was the one who would not listen to them and thought she could give her husband a chance at salvaging his dignity.If Elliot had not arrived in time, Brandon would have had his way with her and her life would have been ruined. She cared about her reputation and there was nothing more humiliating than contracting an STD.Ethel showered and got changed before going downstairs. In the living room, Elliot was sitting comfortably on the couch while Brandon lay down on his belly like a dog. His eyes were full of terror as he peered at the man on the couch incredulously.Although he had not been at the party for Grandpa Jeffrey’s birthday, but he had heard about Elliot's renewed ability to walk.However, he seemed to have a different definition of ‘walk’ compared to Elliot. He th

    A burning rage rose within Sophia when she heard that. “Why are you still transfusing blood to her? You’re going to get yourself killed. Chester is nothing more than a scumbag. Why are you still doing what he tells you to?”Phoebe lowered her head listlessly as tears began to drop onto her hand, “You have no idea. I don’t have a choice when it comes to him. I have to obey.”Sophia rubbed her throbbing forehead. Things were too complicated between Phoebe and Chester. She was already regretting not listening to Elliot. Why did she have to poke her nose into their business? The worst thing is that Chester had no idea what was good for himself.However, given what she saw earlier, she could not just leave Phoebe to her fate. There was a good chance he might torture her to death.“Were those people your family?”“Yeah. Those are my parents and my sister-in-law.”“Why were they hitting you?”Phoebe sighed. “They thought I killed my brother.”“Your brother?” Then, it hit Sophia. “Was

    Sophia smiled. “I’ve got proof.”She searched for her phone in her pouch and played the conversation between Elizabeth and Nathaniel that she recorded that day.Phoebe was taken aback when she had finished listening to it, “Where did you get this?”She said, “I saw Elizabeth go to the staircase, wearing a patient’s gown, a few days ago. I thought it strange and followed her. Then, I overheard their conversation. They didn’t exactly say anything too relevant, but I think it’s probably connected to what you just told me.“It’s highly likely that your brother colluded with Elizabeth for money. Here. You can let Chester listen to the recording so he can see her true colors.”Phoebe returned Sophia’s phone to her, looking sad. “It’s okay. Let it be. What does it matter if he sees her true colors? I still want a divorce. So, I’m not going to make things worse for him.”Sophia frowned. “Are you sure you want to let it go, just like that?”Phoebe looked at her and asked her a profoundly

    Sophia was being unreasonable. “You’re heartless, cold, and selfish. Also, you’re always mean to me.”Elliot looked at her the way he would a child who was having a temper tantrum and smiled, “I’m saying what an outsider would say. I’m not pinning the blame on anyone. There are two sides to every story. Phoebe married Chester, knowing full well that he didn’t love her. She had to be prepared that he wasn’t going to treat her fairly.“It’s the same with us. I chose to marry you, knowing full well that you have a bad temper, despite the fact that we have had some sweet and happy moments. You can’t have everything.” He pinched her chin lovingly.She pouted a little. What he said did make sense. But did anyone force him to marry her?Refusing to give in, she smacked her hand away. “Who did you say have a bad temper? Don’t you think that I’m very kind to you? You should appreciate me more.”He held her hand and chuckled. “Okay. I’ve always appreciated you very much. Isn’t it up to us h

    Sophia was still sleeping when someone called out to her, “Sophy. Sophy…”She was not going to forgive whoever woke her up from her sleep. Frowning, she opened her eyes drowsily and saw Elliot grinning at her.“Rise and shine.”She felt as if she could just die. Was something wrong with him? What was the point he woke her up so early in the morning? It was not like she had to go to work.Slapping him without hesitation, she pushed him away. She muttered in annoyance, rolled over, and continued to sleep. He was speechless. She had such a nasty temper. He was the only one who could stand her. He rolled her over and said, “Are you not going to wake up? Well, then. How about I give your gift away?”Sophia did not open her eyes, but her eyeballs rolled underneath her eyelids. Then, she came to her senses and realized what he said.Opening her eyes slowly, she pouted and looked a little unhappy. “What gift?”He smiled. “Why don’t you wake up and see for yourself?”She grumbled fo

    Sophia got a call from Charles in the afternoon. He said Adeline was on a holiday break and they wanted to treat her to a meal. They decided to get some barbecue. Sophia went straight to the barbecue joint from the hospital. Needless to say, she took her bike. Now that she had it, it was very convenient to travel. Both Charles and Adeline were already there by the time she reached the place.She saw them from afar and asked, “Why are we sitting outside?”He said, “It’s stuffy inside.”Adeline agreed. “That’s right. We can enjoy ourselves better if we eat out here.”Sophia smiled. “Alright. We’ll sit here.”“Go ahead and order. We’ve already gotten some stuff for ourselves. Feel free to get whatever you'd like.” He handed her the menu. Sophia read the menu for a while and said, “I’ll have some prawns, mushrooms, and chicken.” The waiter took her order and left.She turned and looked at Adeline. “Your exams are over. How did it go for you?”Adeline grew grim. “If you want to

    Charles sighed, "This also affected the relationship between Uncle Chester and my grandparents. Although he never complained, he now has a tendency to act independently, probably because he was hurt by what happened back then."Sophia nodded, realizing that this was why Chester’s relationship with the Morgan family was a bit odd. As always, there was more more to the story.When faced with the choice between two children, most parents would instinctively choose to save the younger one. It's never a matter of favoring one child over another, but simply a rational choice driven by priorities.Such a choice would be understandable to everyone except the person who was sacrificed. He might not blame them for this, but he would certainly be heartbroken.This was why Chester would not listen to his family's advice, especially when it came to their criticisms of Elizabeth.In his mind, they were no match for Elizabeth. After all, Elizabeth was the one who saved him, while his family had

    “Ah, no!” Sophia instinctively reached out to catch it, but the phone narrowly missed her fingers. So, she just watched as he tossed the telephone into the bushes.Sophia was infuriated. "Brother, you haven't sung for me yet?"Kyle looked at her. "Time's up.""Time's up for what? You big liar."As she spoke, she balled her fists and attacked him.Although she was no match for Kyle in martial arts, he couldn't fight her in such a confined space. So, Kyle found himself somewhat helpless in this narrow space.He grabbed both her hands with his big hands and pinned her legs with his, leaving Sophia unable to move her limbs.Frustrated, she aimed her head at Kyle and lunged forward. Kyle instinctively dodged. Sophia's little head directly hit his chest.Thud.It felt like a forty-pound hammer hitting his chest, causing Kyle to start coughing on the spot. He was truly at a loss. She was too much to handle, using every trick in the book.With one hand rubbing his sore chest and the

    At that moment, it seemed like the world came to a standstill. The man and the woman at the door were so scared they hardly dared to breathe. How dare this woman. How could she slap Kyle?They sneakily glanced at Kyle's reddened face, wishing they could disappear. They were afraid they'd face his wrath, too.Kyle also couldn't believe what he was seeing. This little drunkard in front of him wasn't speaking gently or acting cute, and instead of calling him brother, she slapped him. He was furious. At that moment, he had already thought of where to bury this woman.However, Sophia didn't seem to realize the seriousness of hitting someone. She suddenly jerked her wrist and broke free from the man's grasp. Whether it was because she used too much force or because she was drunk and couldn't control her strength, she stumbled and fell on her rear.This fall was solid, and she couldn't help but cry in pain, "Ow!"Tears streamed down her face.Kyle was bewildered for a moment. The anger

    Sophia felt helpless. This man's schemes ran too deep. He didn't reveal anything useful. The two drank one glass after another from seven in the evening until ten at night. Sophia's head was spinning.She had been trying to limit herself, taking small sips each time. Unfortunately, her tolerance for alcohol was quite poor. Her gaze was unfocused, and the man opposite her seemed to blur into duplicates. She knew deep down that she was drunk. It was frustrating. When would her tolerance improve?"Are you deliberately trying to get me drunk to see me embarrass myself?" Kyle lounged carelessly. "I didn't know your alcohol tolerance was so poor."Sophia snorted softly in her heart. Ignorance was truly unbelievable. She even suspected that this man had seen her drunk before. Otherwise, why insist on drinking with her? She needed to control herself now; otherwise, her stingy husband at home would be infuriated.So she just slumped onto the table, motionless.Kyle chuckled. "Are you dru

    Kyle compromised, "Alright, I won't touch you."Sophia sternly commanded, "Get off."Kyle slowly got up from her.Sophia's piece of porcelain against his neck remained unmoved, her little face tense.Kyle sat up and waved to remove the hand threatening his neck, "Alright, if I bleed, you lose your life. Do you think I'm afraid of such a broken thing like you?"He knocked away the piece of porcelain in Sophia's hand, but she didn't pick it up. Instead, she said softly, "I know you're not afraid. As the top boss of the Netherworld Palace, what kind of woman can't you have? But it's not worth it to ruin the mood just to sleep with a woman, don't you think?"Kyle looked at her and smiled. Far from diminishing with Sophia's various rudeness, the interest in his eyes only intensified.He stretched out his long arm and grabbed Sophia's nape, pulling her closer. The two were close enough to hear each other breathe.There was a determined smile in his eyes. "I like smart girls."Sophia

    Kylie smirked. "So, how else do you want me to repay you?"But Sophia couldn't shake the feeling that his smile seemed somewhat sinister.Kyle wasn't the kind of person to easily agree. Could it be true that she had saved him?After contemplating, she said, "For example, a substantial monetary reward, a direct increase in shares and equity, or at the very least, treating me to a meal would suffice.“But instead, you kidnapped me, restricted my movements, and now you're telling me it's repayment? Did I perhaps drown your son in a well in a past life, prompting you to repay me in such a unique way?"He was left bewildered by Sophia's rapid-fire words. What was this woman talking about?After a good while, he finally grasped the gist of her words. "Alright, let's go. I'll treat you to a meal."Sophia looked at him, surprised that he was so easy to persuade. She took advantage of the situation and added, "Then first, give back the phone to your lifesaving benefactor."Kyle replied,

    Elliot searched the inside and out of the car. He indeed found a box of acupuncture needles tucked away in a corner. His wife always had a habit of carrying a box of acupuncture needles with her, not for self-defense, but for saving others.However, this box had yet to be opened, proving that the skills of the person they were dealing with surpassed hers. Otherwise, she wouldn't have missed the chance to use the needles.It seemed that this car was indeed the right one.He looked at the dirt road ahead, with tracks from two vehicles. One was a regular sedan, and the other looked like an off-road vehicle.But no more surveillance cameras were ahead, so they wondered if the cars had turned back or continued forward.He relayed the situation to Avery once again. Avery began to investigate, checking every detail of the vehicle information provided by Elliot. At this point, the police, Samuel, and his team arrived one after the other.Since there were no surveillance cameras in this a

    "Mary," Paisley called out each word, but then her throat seemed to constrict, and she couldn't say anything more. Tears welled up in her eyes.Lucas also felt anguished. "We're sorry, Mary, but we haven't wronged you."Mary sneered, "If you haven't, how did I end up in this situation today? You both are incompetent parents. What's the point of arguing? You only have two daughters. Can't you treat us equally?"Paisley was truly enraged by her words. "How have I not treated you equally? Mary was just being clever. Perhaps I inadvertently praised her, but I never said you were bad, did I? Just because of this, you want to abandon Mary?“Are you even human? After you went missing, I couldn't eat or sleep peacefully. Every night was spent in tears. I knew you suffered a lot, and surviving wasn't easy, so when I found out it was Mary who made you disappear, I resented her deeply.“I did everything to make it up to you, even at the cost of hurting Mary. I sided with you unreasonably. Is

    Xena viciously grabbed her by the collar, preparing to take her back for further interrogation. However, many policemen suddenly burst in through the door.The secretary followed closely behind, explaining, "Officers, hurry and arrest Xena. She forced her way in."Xena frowned. Assessing her situation, she forced Mary to sit in the boss's chair, a dagger held against her sister's neck. The room was marked with signs of struggle, with blood spattered across the floor.In this situation, she could hardly argue her innocence. But she instinctively explained, "She locked up my parents and wouldn't tell me where they were. I just wanted to question her."The police officers' expressions hardened, their tone brooking no refusal. "Take her away!"Two officers stepped forward and seized her. Xena complied, offering no resistance or excuses, obediently following the police.Another officer glanced at Mary. "Are you alright?"Mary seemed shaken, clutching her neck. After calming herself,
