Fortunately, Marcus’s child didn’t suffer any major issues. The child had only taken sleeping pills and fell unconscious. After the doctors performed a stomach wash and observed for a while, there were no serious problems.
Damon had Kin take Delilah back to his apartment to keep an eye on her while he went to the hospital to check on the child’s condition. Only after confirming the child was fine did he finally breathe a sigh of relief. Marcus walked up to Damon. If Damon hadn’t stopped him, he might have knelt before him. "Mr. Price, thank you so much for saving my child. I never expected that Delilah would harm the child. If I had known she was so malicious, I would never have gotten involved with her, no matter what." After speaking, he realized something was wrong. He had agreed to Delilah’s plan and accepted money to help his wife get treatment. If given a second chance, it seemed he would still make the same choice. "Forget it. Let’s not talk abouDamon pushed open the door and saw some decorative items broken at the door, likely from Delilah throwing things in a panic. It was understandable, though, since her dream of becoming a rich wife now rested entirely on that child. She didn’t know the situation with Marcus, and she had no idea what had happened to the child. Delilah must be in a panic. "Damon, I was just too anxious earlier. It was Kin who locked me up for no reason. That's why I got angry and started throwing things. Don't be mad at me." Delilah looked at Damon with pitiful eyes, gambling that he still didn’t know about the things she had done. However, she also knew she didn’t have much of a chance. After all, the fact that Kin was able to lock her up indirectly proved Damon’s involvement in this. But at this moment, pretending was all she could do. She couldn’t rely on ‘that’ person to come and rescue her. Delilah knew well that it was impossible. After Damon entered, he shu
That afternoon, Damon finalized the divorce with Delilah, and she was immediately sent to the police station. With multiple witnesses and physical evidence provided by Damon, Delilah was detained. As for her child, it was sent to an orphanage. There was little doubt about the outcome. With Damon’s influence, Delilah was quickly convicted. When Damon went to see her for the last time, she no longer had the arrogant look she had before. Locked up in prison, she seemed to have aged a decade, her entire demeanor weathered. "Damon, since you knew everything from the beginning, why did you endure it for so long?" "From the very start, my mercy was because of the child in your belly. Otherwise, do you really think you could have gotten away with this for so long? Don’t worry, I’ve arranged a place for you in prison. Someone will take good care of you.” After dealing a final blow to Delilah, Damon was about to leave. This was also his last visit to Delilah
As they spoke, the two arrived at the hospital. Fortunately, Damon’s condition wasn’t serious, and after simple treatment, the doctor arranged for him to be admitted to a hospital room. Hazel and Kin sat quietly in the room, not saying anything. Kin carefully watched Hazel, unsure if she had forgotten what she saw back at the bar. If Miss Queen asked about it once Damon woke up, Damon would surely come after him. While Kin was lost in thought, staring at Hazel’s back, she suddenly turned around and caught him staring. “What are you looking at? Do you have something you want to say?” Hazel then directly took Kin out of the room. Seeing his guilty expression, she started to think that he was hiding something important from her. “What is it? What is it that you can’t tell me? Does anyone from the Price family know about Damon’s situation right now?” Kin shook his head and then explained, “It’s not that I’m hiding something from you, Miss Queen, it’s j
An uneasy feeling flashed through Hazel’s mind, and she quickly reached for the car door handle, but the driver had already locked it. “Miss Queen, don’t rush to leave. Haven’t you always wanted to know who I am? Well, today’s your chance. Let’s have a good chat.” Hazel’s hand reached into her bag, grasping the hairpin her mother used to always carry. Ever since she found the hairpin, Hazel had kept it with her. Originally, it was a memento, but now it served another purpose—self-defense. Luckily, there was only the driver in the car. Judging by his words, he clearly had something he wanted to say to her. Since she had already come this far, she might as well find out what he was after. “Who are you? What do you want? How do you know my parents? Are you involved in their deaths?!” Hazel fired off several questions in a row. The driver didn’t respond immediately. Instead, he started the car. Once they were on the main road, the driver finally looked
Hazel knew deep down that this man wasn’t going to reveal everything from the past so easily. Still, it was good to know that there was a channel to investigate further. She could take her time to look into it.“No, no, no, you’ve got it wrong.” The man smiled and waved his hand, as though casually talking about daily matters with Hazel.“Now, I’m the one asking the questions. You don’t have the right to ask me anything right now.”The familiarity he had shown earlier when trying to approach Hazel was completely gone, replaced by an overwhelming sense of suppression.A suppression so strong that Hazel couldn’t help but feel a sense of inferiority.“If I don’t have the right to ask you anything, then how can you be so sure that you have the right to ask me? Or do you think Hazel Queen is someone who can be bullied at will?”When Hazel said this, the man froze for a moment. When he looked at her again, there was a trace of admiration in his ey
Damon immediately came to find Hazel as soon as he learned about the situation because he had gotten an idea of where she had gone yesterday from Kin. He had always had people keep an eye on Hazel, something she was aware of, though she didn’t realize just how thoroughly he was watching her. It felt like surveillance, which made her feel very uncomfortable. “How did you know to tell me about this immediately? Even though my parents’ situation might be related to the organization, that’s only a possibility.” It was easy to guess that Damon must have known what happened to her last night. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come to notify her about it so quickly. Damon froze for a moment, not knowing how to explain to Hazel that he had been keeping tabs on her. And, it wasn’t just ‘keeping tabs’ anymore—it felt more like surveillance, to make sure she wasn’t getting too close to any other men. But he had no other choice. He had been circling around Delilah f
Bailey's recent development in the entertainment industry was nothing short of stellar.Since honing her acting skills on the show, Bailey’s path had been smooth sailing.It was also thanks to Amber’s good arrangements. After the show Star To Be ended, Bailey's fame skyrocketed.At first, she was criticized by the entire internet, but later, her strong will and growing maturity earned her a group of loyal fans.These fans began using the excuse that she was the daughter of a noble family to ‘whitewash’ her, and the effect was quite significant.Most importantly, Bailey’s personality had undergone a big change. During her time in the entertainment industry, she transformed from a young lady who only knew how to order people around into a considerate friend who always comforted others.No one could resist such a contrast. Moreover, Bailey had been pampered and raised with that mentality, so it wasn’t entirely her fault that she used t
Of course, Jonah could tell what was going on. After all, Mr. Moore had always looked down on him, and that wasn’t a secret; many of the company’s employees knew it. Whenever Jonah gave orders, the employees had to check with Mr. Moore first before deciding whether to carry them out. It was clear that they had sidelined him. If it weren’t for Adam confirming Jonah’s position as the CEO, those employees would probably be giving him the cold shoulder. "Mr. Moore, I know you look down on me, but don’t say I didn’t warn you. No matter how much you despise me, this position will never be yours." "Since Adam Fleur trusts you so much, you should know what kind of deal I made with him. Even if he hands over all the power to you, so what? I still get paid as the CEO. I don’t have to do anything, but I still get a nice paycheck. That works just fine for me." Back when he was at the Queen family, Jonah had dealt with many such people, and he understood well: for those
After sending the materials to Bailey, Amber quickly left Bailey’s apartment in a rush.Bailey casually glanced at the script before tossing it aside and continuing with her skincare routine, ready to rest...Sully, who often kept an eye on Bailey, was the first to find out about this. Thinking it was time to strike a blow to Bailey, Sully immediately told Hazel."I know you want to overshadow Bailey, but it really irks me to see her rise so easily. Plus, there’s already a rift between Mr. Moore and Jonah. We don’t have to make a direct move, though."Seeing Hazel hesitate, Sully changed her approach.Hazel could tell that if she didn’t let Sully deal with Bailey, it would certainly bother her. Moreover, what Sully said made sense. Mr. Moore was a great opportunity to add pressure to Jonah. They couldn’t just let that go easily."Mr. Moore definitely can’t stand to see Jonah doing well, but aside from making life difficult for him, he doesn’
