Angeline unzipped her coat, revealing her singlet and skinny figure underneath. "I was able to survive even though I was female because the Emmersons needed me to prevent the next baby from being female as well."No one could imagine that although Angeline had a beautiful face, her body was marked with ugly scars. Meanwhile, those netizens who mocked her for being a masochistic whore after her nudes were leaked fell silent. The slide changed, and a picture of a small girl was shown. She looked filthy, her hair was messy, and she was extremely skinny. Moreover, her entire body was covered in terrible wounds. Yet, her eyes looked bright. The scars on Angeline's body and the young girl's picture shocked everyone. "This was me after I had just escaped with my biological mother from Emmerson Village." Angeline looked at the screen and continued calmly, "Back then, my mother kept giving birth to girls. As such, during her last pregnancy, the Emmersons started pinning nails into
Henrietta wiped her tears with the back of her hand and held Angeline's arm firmly. When she saw the last clip of her mother on the television screen, she swore to herself, "I must live a good life so my mother won't worry about me."Meanwhile, The Family Search was still airing on television. "Lastly, I would like to address the children who were born to kidnapped women like me…" Angeline looked like she was about to cry, but her voice was filled with conviction. "If your mothers managed to survive and escape, please don't… Please don't remind them of what they have suffered!"During the two years that Angeline was in a coma, she kept dreaming about the past. In her dreams, she wished to rescue her mother and help her out of Emmerson Village, even if it came at the expense of her own life. That was because Angeline loved her mother greatly. "Even though my mother is dead, I still want to tell her that I'm doing great right now! Although she isn't by my side, I have Anne wi
Angeline teared up when she saw that the topic had gone viral.After all, her reason for appearing on The Family Search was to use the show's influence to raise the sentence for buyers of trafficking victims.At the same time, online netizens discovered videos of Angeline every time she received a prize. In her speeches, she would always remind everyone to pay more attention to human trafficking issues. Moreover, someone discovered that Angeline would donate the money she received from bursaries to foundations that raised awareness for trafficking victims ever since she was in junior high school. This proved that she wasn't putting on an act by attending the television program. Several netizens replied to the trending hashtags.Pancakes replied to #sentencingbuyersoftraffickingvictims: "She probably wanted to help others in the same position as her mother!"EatingSlowly replied to #humantraffickingsentencingmustincreasenodemandnoharm: "I'm touched.

Robert now understood that Angeline wanted to save women who were in the same situation as Jessica.He realized it was the reason why Sean said that Angeline was brilliant. Angeline had endured humiliation and exercised extreme patience to achieve her goals. This showed she could steady her emotions well, like a Lawson family member. There was an abrupt knock on Robert's door.With that, he switched off his smart tablet and wore his glasses. "What's the matter?""Mr. Lawson Senior, it's getting late. You should rest soon." Sandy opened the door carefully and reminded Robert, "Tomorrow morning, Mr. Hughes is coming over to check up on you and Sean.""I got it." Robert turned his head to look at Sandy. "You should go to bed as well!"In the meantime, Ned couldn't get a wink of sleep either. He had already left the hospital and was recuperating at the Fletcher residence. He knew that The Family Search was airing that night. Moreover, Ned knew that Angeline had atten
He had never apologized to anyone before. He didn't know what to say even if Angeline did pick up the call.Meanwhile, Sean, seated in a private jet, watched the viral video clips online. He was relieved when he noticed the public's opinions about Angeline had improved. He then passed his smart tablet to Taylor and checked his watch.He was going to meet with the upper management of Lawson Global. So, Sean gathered his documents and told Taylor, "Observe the perspectives of the online netizens and be prepared to restrict the comments when necessary.""Don't worry. I've already instructed the secretarial department to take note of that." Taylor followed after Sean. "They will slowly release videos of Ms. Angeline's award speeches."Fortunately, Angeline had attended many competitions not disclosed to media outlets.Still, Taylor had always instructed others to record everything for Sean to look at after those events. As time passed, Taylor gradually recorded all the competi
"Mrs. Luxe, I know you're kindhearted. Accept this as a token of my appreciation." Angeline placed the money into Hussey's hand and said, "Please keep this."Hussey ultimately accepted the money.On Tuesday morning, Angeline set off to the airport. Before departing, she kept reminding Henrietta, "Call me every day. When you leave the house and before you go to bed, you must turn the gas off and lock the doors securely."Henrietta, who was carrying her school bag, nodded obediently. She opened the door for Angeline. "I'm leaving. If you need anything, look for Mrs. Luxe or call me."Henrietta smiled and signed, "Don't worry."Once the plane landed safely, Angeline received a message from Henrietta. She told Angeline to stay safe and eat well. Angeline then took the direct bus to Cloudsville College. When she arrived at school, Angeline immediately headed to the laboratory and monitored the data on the computer. Meanwhile, Marion, who went to fetch a cup of water earlier
Angeline suddenly received many messages. She realized that it was coming from the research team's group chat. Reese was typing…HandsomeReese: "I'm going to be a father!"HandsomeReese: "I'm going to be a father!"HandsomeReese: "Stop sleeping! Get up and congratulate me!

Although she was drugged, she could vividly remember what happened between them bo
Angeline had rented out their house. Although the place was small and its earnings were small, it covered some of Henrietta's living expenses.Henrietta was thrilled that she had transferred schools. She didn't feel reluctant about leaving her previous institution. Instead, she felt a little relieved. Angeline sent her sister to Cloudsville High School's dormitory. She stopped worrying when she met Henrietta's nice roommates. Her period was delayed for a month, so Angeline bought a pregnancy test kit on the way back from Cloudsville High School's dormitory. It was her first time using the kit. After examining it for a long time, Angeline finally figured out how to use it. Angeline's face paled five minutes later when she saw two red lines on the pregnancy test stick. Her mind went blank. How could she fall pregnant on the first try?Angeline didn't believe it, so she went out and bought a few more pregnancy test kits. Alas, the results were the same. She stared at the row
