2022-04-18 20:00:26Right when Margaret called Edric, Edric was ringing her up as well.
He was clearly aware of why Irene did not want him to meet Eden and why she was reluctant to remarry him. On one hand, it was because she misunderstood him and believed that there was still something going on between him and Lily. On other hand, it was because of Margaret's attitude towards her.
For the former, he could prove to Irene with his actions that he would never have any connection with Lily anymore. As for Margaret, he supposed that her attitude towards Irene could be changed.
The main reason why Margaret treated Irene badly in the past was that Irene could not bear children. Now that Irene had given birth to Eden for the Myers family-or in other words, she had brought them a successor-Margaret would probably stop giving Irene a hard time.
With this thought in mind, Edric took out his phone and called Margaret. Unexpectedly, Margaret was also calling him at that moment. Henc

Margaret heard Irene's voice and immediately turned her head around. She chuckled evilly. "Well, well, look who it is..." Her gaze intensified as she looked over to Eden who was sleeping in Nathan's arms. Before Edric had mentioned it, she would never have imagined that Eden was related to her. But after listening to what Edric had said, she realized the child in front of her looked just like a young Edric. She couldn't help but walk over and reach out to stroke Eden's head. Nathan dodged to one side and looked at her warily. "Mrs. Myers, what were you trying to do?" "Is this boy my grandson?" Margaret felt a twinge of upset that she had not managed to touch Eden, but her sadness was soon washed away, replaced by excitement. "Mrs. Myers, you're mistaken. This is my son, not your grandson!" Irene walked up to them, her face taut. She might be patient with Edric, but Margaret... was the last person on earth that she wanted to see. "You...” Marga

Edric was speechless at Irene's words. It was true-Margaret was the kind of person who would do such a thing. He could not think of anything to refute her words. "Edric, we are finished. If you have even the tiniest bit of affection towards me, if you really want what's best for Eden, then I beg you to let me go. Nathan and I will get married soon. I am imploring you not to pester us anymore! Please!” Edric's eyes darkened when he heard that. In his mind, he thought, "Irene, are you so eager to marry Nathan? Don't you feel anything for me?” Seeing that he was silent, Irene didn't want to stay there any longer and walked right past him out the door. "You really aren’t going to give me a chance?" Edric asked pitifully. Tears began streaming down her face. Irene turned her head away to prevent Edric from seeing her cry. "Even if I give you a chance, so what? You have a mother who looks upon me so unkindly. We are destined to be unhappy if we live togethe

Frightened, Margaret stopped talking at once. Edric slammed down his fist on the table a couple more times. At the sight of this, Margaret's heart ached and she quickly went to his side to stop him. "Edric, don't do this!" Edric looked at Margaret with bloodshot eyes. "Mom, if you really care about me, please return to Haverland immediately. With Eden's condition now, I don't want you to disturb them. Irene and I will find a way to cure him!" "How do you plan on doing so? Leukemia is no flu or fever. How can I not worry?" asked Margaret, unwilling to leave. "I’ve already found a way. We could get him a bone marrow transplant. Irene is pregnant. When the child is born, we could transplant parts of his bone marrow to Eden." “Irene is pregnant again? Is it yours?" Margaret squealed, aghast. She was already surprised to find out about Eden, yet now, she was about to have another grandchild again. She didn't know how to react to this shocking news.

When Irene returned to the hospital, she saw that Edric was playing with Eden in the ward. It was such a happy, blissful scene. Eden couldn’t help but get excited when he saw Irene had arrived. “Mom! Edric said that when I get discharged, he'll take me boating at the park. Can you come with us?" "Sure" Irene didn't want to disappoint Eden, hence she decided to play along with it. "Edric also said that he would give me a toy boat that can shoot water! Next time I'll be able to play with my toy boat in the pool." Irene gazed at Edric with a blank expression. Edric was clearly trying to bribe Eden by giving him toys, but Irene would not let him get his way. "Eden, have you forgotten what I told you? If you like a toy, you can ask me to buy it for you. But you're not allowed to take things from strangers." "But Edric said that's a limited edition toy, most people won't be able to get it." Eden pouted. "If I can't buy it, you can ask Nathan to buy it for y

Nathan agreed to her request and left. After tucking Eden to sleep, Irene stood by the door of the White family and glanced around nervously, checking her phone every few minutes. Why hadn't Nathan called her? Had something really happened to Edric? All of a sudden, the phone rang. Irene answered it immediately, "Nathan, have you found him?" "I'm not Nathan!" Edric said in a low voice. "It’s you. Where are you? John is looking for you everywhere...” "Irene, I have something to tell you," Edric interrupted her. "Can you not marry Nathan?" Irene was silent for a moment. "No!" "Are my mistakes really unforgivable? Can't you just forgive me this once?" Irene let his question hang. Was Edric truly that unforgivable? She had loathed him before and thought him inexcusable. But after knowing the truth, her hatred for him had abated. She had considered getting back together with him for Eden's sake, she really had. But with Marg

Originally, Nathan was going to accompany Irene back to the country. However, the previous incident at the factory had disrupted his plan. One of the disobliging workers had filed a lawsuit against him. As the defendant, he wasn't allowed to leave the country. Nathan was distraught, he had no choice but to call Jordan. Jordan jumped up in anger when he heard Nathan tell him that Margaret had brought Eden back to the country secretly. "For God's sake, what's wrong with you? Didn't you promise me that you would protect Irene and Eden? How could you let that crazy woman snatch Eden away?" "It’s my fault. I had never for the life of me expected Edric's mother to come all the way here. I'm worried about Irene going back to the country alone. On top of that, Eden's health is at stake. Please help Irene. After I'm done handling some work stuff, I'll rush over immediately." Nathan felt culpable as well. Joanne was the one who had started all this. If she had not revealed to

No sooner had they alighted the plane than Edric turned on his phone, and as expected, they had already learned Eden's whereabouts. After reading the message, he hurried to grab Irene's hand, who was scurrying in front of him, and said, "Irene, Eden is in the Wellcare Hospital right now.” Swiveling around, Irene asked eagerly, "How is his condition?" “Don't worry. He was just slightly frightened. The doctor said that there's nothing serious. He can be discharged from the hospital after staying for a few days,” Edric answered. Irene lightened herself with a sigh of relief. She had been worrying about Eden's safety the whole time she was on the plane. Although she also knew that Margaret would not harm Eden, he must have been disoriented since Margaret took him away by force, and it might even aggravate Eden's condition too. However, right then after hearing Edric's words, her heart, which had been tensed up for a long time, could finally beat steadily.

Edric arrived precisely at that time. Alarmed to see Margaret rolling down the stairs, he hurried forward and asked, "Mom, are you all right?" Margaret screamed, "My leg! My leg hurts so much!" Irene was also shocked to see Margaret fall down the stairs. However, seeing that Edric was there, she decided to pay no heed and continued to stride out with Eden in his arms. Jordan and Kinsey followed closely. After the three of them reached the front desk, Irene informed the nurse about her identity and asked her to discharge Eden. The nurse frowned. “Do you have any proof of you being the child's mother?" "Yes, and I'll show you my identity card and passport." Irene hurriedly reached for her identity card from her leather purse. She had just got off the plane, hence both her identity card and passport were still with her, which could be used to prove the relationship between her and Eden. The nurse eyed her documents and said, "The child is

Lily and Joanne left delightfully the moment they saw the miscarriage. However, they did not expect to be faced with a swarm of police officers after they opened the door. Both Lily and Joanne were immediately subdued, and the masked pregnant woman was carried out. Joanne and Lily were shocked to find out that the pregnant woman they had beaten up was not Irene but a stranger. "What's going on?” Lily pointed at the stranger woman and asked Wayne angrily. "What are you talking about? Isn't she the woman that you had asked me to kidnap?" Wayne retorted. "Y-you! How dare you lie to me?" Even an idiot would know that Lily had been set up. However, she had found out too late. The police put Joanna and Lily under charges for kidnapping with murder intent. According to Article 239 of the Criminal Law, anyone found kidnapping another person or holding them as hostage for the purpose of extorting property would be sentenced to more than ten years imprisonment

She had promised to stay with Nathan and forgive him. However, the reality presented a bigger problem than she thought. Rowane was her younger sister, and they had the same blood flowing in their veins after all. She was not able to accept a man who had an affair with her younger sister. However, it was not a matter of whether she could accept what had happened or not. It was Rowane who was indeed in love with Nathan. When she observed her affection towards Nathan and remembered the fact that she was pregnant, Irene wished to persuade Nathan to accept Rowane. Ever since she had said that sentence at the hospital that day, Nathan avoided spending time alone with Irene. He did not want Irene to tell him to take responsibility for Rowane. Meanwhile, Irene was in a difficult position as well. Nathan had wasted nine years of his youth with her, so how could she ask him to marry Rowane? She was hesitant, so Kinsey came to advise her as well, "Irene, give Ed

"Hush now, it's all in the past!" Irene patted her shoulder and comforted her gently, “Perhaps she has gone mad to escape from her guilt!" "Yes. If there is only pain left in a person's life, it is better to just die. Since she didn't want to die, going mad is the best way for her to get rid of the pain," Edric chipped in to comfort her. Nathan watched Irene and Rowane hugging and crying together as he stood by the side. He felt a mix of emotions. Irene was someone who emphasized a lot on relationships and affection. It would be impossible for him to be with Irene. He heaved a heavy sigh and thought, "How ill-fated we are!” Rowane overheard Nathan's sigh and glanced at him with eyes full of tears, “Nathan, I won't pester you anymore. Don't worry, I won't let this child affect you." "What nonsense are you spouting?" Irene glared at Rowane. The estrangement between her and Rowane vanished completely after the hug. She spat, "Nathan isn't that ki

Nathan rushed to the police station after receiving the call. When Rowane noticed Nathan's initial tender expression had turned hard, she felt incredibly guilty. She had never dreamed that the person she loved would be the same Nathan who had been Irene's guardian for the past nine years. Why was it that the person she liked always had something to do with Irene? First, it had been Edric. Now, it was Nathan. She was pregnant with Nathan's child now. As Nathan despised her, Rowane did not want Nathan to misunderstand her any further. The moment she saw Nathan, she told Nathan everything that had happened to her. Nathan had heard from Jordan that Rowane was a woman with an evil heart. So, he had begun to loathe her. Now, he knew that she had been deceived by Marie, and his hatred towards Rowane naturally dissipated. Hence, Nathan decided to bring Rowane back to Haverland. When Edric heard that Nathan was bringing Rowane back to Haverland, he went to look for Ir

Lily could not dodge the cup in time as water splashed on her face. The water washed away the makeup she had put on to bluff Steven, revealing her true colors. Steven was infuriated to see Lily going to such extreme measures to con him. He pointed at Lily and bellowed, "Get out of here, you b*tch!" "Dad, have you gotten things mixed up? I'm Lily. I'm your daughter, Lily.” “Get lost! You're an illegitimate child!" Steven's hands trembled as he spoke. Edric let out a snicker as he stood by the side and said, "Miss Cook, look at this!" Lily took over the report and glanced at the content, "Whose report is this?" "It's yours and Mr. Cook's. Do you still think that Mr. Cook is your biological father?" "This is impossible!” Lily was taken aback. She had always thought that she was Steven's daughter. Never in a million years would she think that she actually was not related to Steven at all. "Why would it be impossible? Your m

Marie, who was seriously injured, was immediately sent to the hospital for rescue while Loraine and Jackson were taken to the police station. Irene soon learned what had happened. Deborah and Logan had been burned to death while Marie had been stabbed and hospitalized. What awaited Marie was a lifetime of imprisonment. The murderers who had killed her mother had all met their doom, but Irene’s heart was not happy at all. If she could, she would rather not seek revenge, as she only wanted her mother to be alive. After being treated by a doctor in the hospital, Marie's condition stabilized. After a few days of recovery in the hospital, she finally gained consciousness. Soon, Marie had Lily on her mind the whole time and she wanted to know how Lily was. Although Marie was missing Lily, Lily did not return the same feelings. Deborah and Logan's death gave Lily a headache. After their death, Lily had nothing else left. Lily felt annoyed when faced with the

The hospital staff were horrified to see Marie's obscene videos. Marie's image in the hospital had initially been excellent, so it was shocking to see such videos of her. People generally liked gossip, so employees who were familiar with each other began to secretly gossip about Marie, "I didn't expect that the seemingly noble and cold Dr. Walker’s private life would be so licentious!" "You're right! Look at these positions, haha! Just one look and I know that she's an expert in that field. What do you mean she's noble and cold? She is such a sl*t!" Everyone in the hospital, including the patients, had all watched Marie's obscene videos and they were all discussing it. However, Marie was oblivious to it. When she went to work, she found that the nurses in the hospital were looking at her differently, but she did not give it much thought. Marie had cooked nutritious soup for Lily and she brought it into Lily's ward, "Lily, drink it while it's hot!” Mar

“B*tch, tell me honestly, how did Rosa die?" Jackson questioned angrily. He too had received news about Rosa's death, and he was devastated. During that period of time, Jackson's heart was in a mess. He thought carefully and came to the conclusion that Rosa's death must had something to do with Loraine. He had believed that Tommy was Loraine's son before, but that was not the case anymore. Jackson thought that Loraine must have killed Rosa out of jealousy. Jackson had constantly been looking for Loraine, ready to take revenge. Pure hatred surged in Jackson's eyes upon seeing Loraine. He stretched out his arm and grabbed Loraine, "B*tch, you'll die today!” Loraine could not care less. She didn't have much desire to live either. Right then, taking revenge for her son was the only thing on her mind. Seeing that Jackson was going to take action on her, she said in a hurry, "I deserve to die, but I can’t let my son die in vain.

“We'll talk about Irene later. We have to deal with Lily's problem right now. You've come at the right time. When Lily wakes up, you should try to talk to her. She's too emotionally unstable right now," Marie said. "I know, I came here with the thought of persuading her," Deborah nodded. Lily's temper was generally pretty bad, and she was the only one who could persuade her. Deborah reached out and touched Lily's face, which was pale due to major blood loss, "How long has she been asleep? Nothing bad will happen right?" “Nothing bad will happen. Lily woke up in the morning. Her emotions were all over the place, that I had no choice but to ask someone to give her a sedative. She will wake up soon," Marie explained. Deborah was relieved upon hearing that, but she soon remembered Lily's children. Although Simon had said that Lily's children were healthy, Deborah was still worried, "Marie, where are Lily's children? Is there any problem with them?"
