"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."

"What did you say?" Irene's voice changed

    Jordan knocked hard on the door outside and asked Irene to open it, but no matter how hard they tried, there was no reply. Worried that something would happen to Irene, Jordan turned to look at Dave (Thomas) and Kinsey, "It seems that the only way now is to break the door down!” Dave (Thomas) and Kinsey had no other way, so they just nodded. Jordan took a few steps back and crashed the door open with force. As the door opened, they saw Irene holding her head and sitting on the bed. The three of them breathed a sigh of relief. Upon seeing the door suddenly opened, Irene was shocked. She stared at the three of them who were at the door with her eyes wide open and her face bore a shocked expression. Kinsey closed the door and walked to her side, "Irene, you've scared us to death!” Irene gave her a bitter smile, "Why did you come back?" "Uncle Thomas called us to come back. What happened?" Kinsey sat down beside Irene and looked at her with concern.

    Jordan stood up and held Irene, "Have a seat. I've been trying to tell you about this, but I was afraid that you wouldn't accept it. Since you've heard everything, there's no need for me to hide it anymore. I suspect that Deborah caused your mother's death." Jordan repeated what he just said. Irene's face paled and her body kept trembling. She wanted to grab something, but there was nothing to hold on to, so she tightly clenched onto the sofa. Due to using too much strength, her fingertips turned white. Seeing her like this, Kinsey was frightened, "Irene, Irene, are you okay?" Irene did not speak. When her mother had died, she was still in school. When she had heard the bad news and rushed to the hospital, she had only seen her mother's cold body. She remembered what her mother had looked like at that time. She had been covered in blood and her face was pale. Her mother had stayed in the hospital morgue for two days. Later, the driver, who had caused the acci

    Irene was planning to move back to the Cook family. However, she did not expect Edric to call her that night. He told her that he witnessed Steven being hospitalized and asked if she planned to visit him. Irene had happened to watch Steven on the TV regarding news of his meeting in the province the day before. Steven seemed energetic then. He did not look sick. Why would he suddenly be admitted to the hospital? She recalled the time when Steven had pretended to be sick and hospitalized. Irene had a hunch that something must have happened to Steven during his meeting at the province, so he pretended to be sick again. So, she didn't take it to heart. Not long after dinner, Maisy called to inform Irene that Steven had been admitted into the hospital because he had passed out. She requested Irene to head over to the hospital to visit him. When Irene rushed to the hospital, there were only Steven and Maisy in the ward. Irene felt skeptical over Deborah and

    Both Deborah and Lily were taken aback to see Irene and Eden coming home to celebrate Steven's birthday. They exchanged glances and knew what this entailed. Didn't Marie say that Irene would leave San Fetillo soon? However, why did the situation turn out to be the opposite of what she had said? They knew it was time to have a chat with Marie about what was happening. Both the mother and daughter forced a smile as they faced Irene and Eden. Deborah even praised Eden, "Eden has grown up so handsomely! You'll definitely become a handsome man when you're older!" Lily hurriedly complemented her mother's actions. Eden asked Irene, "Mom, who are they?" Irene pointed at Deborah and Lily before explaining, "She is Mrs. Cook, and she is Mrs. Cook's daughter. You may call her Miss Cook." Eden nodded, "Hello, Mrs. Cook and Miss Cook!" The way he had greeted both Deborah and her daughter disgusted them. Eden was shocked to see Lily's pregnant belly and ask

    Joanne lost her appetite due to her busy thoughts. She only finished half of her meal before resting on the sofa in the living room to brainstorming. While she was deep in thought, Nathan's phone rang in the living room. Joanne glanced at it and saw the name Jodie' on the screen. Just as she was about to ask Nathan who 'Jodie' was, he stood up to pick up the call. Joanne's curiosity sparked. She pricked her ears and listened carefully. She heard Nathan speaking gently and whispered the name 'Jodie' softly. After the other side said something, Nathan replied with an 'Oh no!' and he added, "Look at my poor memory. Please keep it for me. I'll collect it before I return to Haverland. Thank you.” Joanne asked deliberately, "Nathan, who called you? Why did I hear a woman's voice? Are you having an affair with another lady behind Irene's back?” Nathan rushed to explain, "What nonsense are you spluttering? I went to the villa on the outskirts to do some garde

    The only thing he was worried about was his mother, Loraine, rejecting his decision. Not only was Cecilia a prostitute, but she was also much older than him as well, so his mother would definitely disagree with their relationship. He still depended on his mother, so he had to reveal the matter later on. One night, Sam brought a few bottles of wine and some dishes to Tommy's place for a hangout session. As they were drinking, Sam suddenly brought up a matter about his business, "Mr. Tommy, I heard a small piece of news about why your nightclub had been closed down. I'm just not sure if it's true or not." "Tell me about it," Tommy felt embarrassed to not have any money with him. He stayed home to scroll the Internet every day and had no idea about what was happening outside. "I heard that your nightclub was closed down because of your partner. Your partner had offended someone he shouldn't, so they deliberately chose to shut down the nightclub.” "No way

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.

    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

    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?"
