He went with the police to take Rosa's statement. Rosa did not know much about Bruce's situation at all, but she did give one clue, and that was that Bruce would often call a man named Logan behind her back.

Back then she was still a bit wary of Bruce, so she would often secretly listen to his conversations with Logan. Back then she had wondered if Bruce was seeing other women outside. So while he was in the shower, Rosa had secretly looked through his phone and recorded Logan's phone number down.

The police asked Rosa to give them the phone number that she had recorded. With the number, John found out that his full name was Logan Wheeler.

After some investigation, John found that Logan owned quite a few shops. In order to exert his power, he had quite a few underlings under him. Bruce had indeed worked for him before.

    Deborah's ruthlessness made Edric extremely worried for Irene's safety. Since she could be so cruel to his own mother, she would definitely stop at nothing to harm Irene. He had to inform Irene as soon as possible so that she could be more careful. Edric paid a visit to Irene and told her about Deborah and Logan. Irene was taken aback. When Deborah had first seduced Steven and gave birth to Lily, Irene had just seen her as a horrible person who had no morals. She had never thought that Deborah was actually this vicious and evil. "She's way too evil. Call the police and arrest her immediately," Irene felt both angry and worried. Edric shook his head, "We can't call the police! That would be going too easy on them." "What are you planning to do then?" "An eye for an eye!" Edric sneered, "They've plotted against us for so long. If we just report them and get them thrown in jail, that would be too lenient towards them. I want them to have a taste

    "I have to ask them what's going on. I won't stand being fooled like this.” "Sit down. I haven' t finished talking yet,” Jordan pulled Kinsey back to the seat, "Do you know why they lied to you?" "I was going to find out why, wasn't I?" "They won't tell you even if you ask. Let me tell you why instead,” Jordan sneered, "That man is a friend of Deborah's lover. Didn't you hit Lily? I think they were trying to set you up as a form of revenge ” "They acted all that out just to set me up?" Kinsey had an incredulous look on her face. If they really wanted to harm her, they could have just gotten someone to beat her up. Why go through so much trouble? "I just figured it out too," Jordan smirked, "You beat Lily until her face was swollen, so Deborah must hate you. However, now with everything that's been going on, she doesn't dare to deal with you openly, so she set up such a scene. If you got injured because you were trying t

I hope you will be honest and tell me only the truth." It then dawned on Thomas that Edric had found out the truth about his identity. He remained calm, "What do you want to know?" "I have a lot of things I want to know. First of all, why are you pretending to be Thomas? Secondly, tell me more about Marie." "Pretending to be Thomas wasn't exactly my intention,” Dave sighed and told Edric about how his wallet had been robbed because of a famous painting. "When the real Thomas had passed away in an accident, I had returned to San Fetillo in a sorry state, and had nowhere to go. Irene's mother took me in and since then I've been using Thomas' identity to avoid unnecessary trouble." "Do Steven and Deborah know about your true identity as a famous designer?"

    Although she was surprised by Lily's behavior, the obstetrician was smart too. She immediately took Lily's weight, blood pressure, heart rate, and acted busy. Edric had been standing aside and watching Lily while she did the examinations. After the doctor's checkup had come to an end, he began to ask the doctor about Lily's condition in detail. The doctor told Edric that the baby was in good condition and healthy. Edric was joyful when he heard this, "She looked so slim so I was worried about her health. I'm feel totally relieved now after hearing your words." When Lily heard that Edric cared about her, she felt warmth in her heart. Edric then asked the doctor if he could know the babies' gender at that moment. There was a rule in the hospital saying that they were not allowed to reveal the baby's gender. However, Edric's status was not like others. The obstetrician did an ultrasound for Lily. She said that because of the babies' position, it was not

    "Because of Marie," Dave sighed. He told Irene about Marie threatening him, and continued, "If Marie wasn't so vicious, I would have buried this in my heart for the rest of my life, but now I don't think I can do it anymore. Since Marie can do such harmful things to Margaret, she could do it to someone else. I am worried that she'll harm others again." "What does Marie have on you?" Irene asked back. Dave (Thomas) had always been peaceful and never offended anyone. The only thing that Marie could threaten him with was his real identity. However, in recent years, Dave (Thomas) had been really good to her. Her grandmother had married Dave's father. Although she wasn't related to Dave by blood, he was indeed her uncle. This reason wouldn't be a threat to him at all. Dave (Thomas) stayed silent after Irene's question. After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Because she knew that I liked your mother."

    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?

    "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.

    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.

    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.

    “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?"
