"You are?" Jackson looked at that person doubtfully. He combed through his memory but could not recognize the man in front of him.

"It's me, Larry! You don't recognize me anymore?" The man introduced himself. Jackson had no idea who Larry or Leslie or whatever name he had. From his name, he assumed that Larry had to be one of the less noticeable small fry gangsters that he used to hang out with.

"Jackson, when did you come back?” Larry asked him.

"I just came back today!"

"Oh, how come no one knew about your return? My bad. Since I've run into you, let me welcome you back," Larry said as he reached out his hand and dragged Jackson over to his car beside him.

Even a small gangster like him owned a car. Jackson himself did not even have a  home. The comparison was depressing.

However, having someone care about him was better than nothing. Jackson wanted to find someone to catch him up on what was going on anyway. So, he decided to f

    Edric nodded. Those b*tches were indeed so vicious that no words could be used to describe his anger at the moment. He really wanted to skin Marie, Loraine and Lily all alive. His mother was right! He had to take his revenge on them tenfold! Loraine had drugged Irene for three years to make her infertile. They had even secretly performed a tubal ligation on her. How abhorrent could one be! No matter what, he had to show her what he was made of. Previously, he had just planned to take back all the assets Loraine had earned from the Myers family. He just wanted her to suffer a little. However, now he realized he had been too generous. He had to let her have a taste of her own medicine! Jackson had already been released. At first, Edric was still hesitant. Now it seemed like he had been worried for nothing. He had to make Tommy see the truth! Deborah detested Rosa's guts. She immediately got Logan to go find out about what had happened to Rosa. Deborah w

    Of course Tommy and his mother had no idea that Jackson was spying on them. Tommy grabbed Loraine's hand and begged, "Mom, I'm out of money. Please give me some allowance!" "I don't have any money," Loraine said frustratedly. "What about your salary this month? Haven't you gotten it yet?" Tommy had Loraine's salary in mind. "Edric hasn't been home in a while. He called and said he'll come pay me my salary over the next few days." In the past, Edric had always deposited her salary right into her bank account. However, recently he had changed to paying her in cash. Since he was busy, he had not been able to come back and had instructed her to wait for a bit. The Myers family ran a large conglomerate so Loraine wasn't worried at all that Edric would not pay her. However Tommy was impatient, "Mom, give me some of your backup savings then." "I already gave you a portion of that last time. I'm not going to take out anymore. If I take too much out, n

    After Loraine came out from the operating room, Hodge, the driver of the Myers family, came up to see her and said, "Who did you offend? Why have you become like this?” Hodge was very surprised to see her like this. "I have no idea as well! I got held up by someone and got beaten up. No one came to save me," Loraine felt immense hatred upon explaining herself. The security guards around the villa were usually pretty ruthless people. However, they had not even bothered to show up when she was getting beaten up. If they had shown up, then she would not have been beaten up to this degree. "How unexpected. How did you even get involved in such incidents?" Hodge sighed. "I've called Mr. Myers about your injury. He affirms that you rest well and that he'll never let off the person who had beaten you up. He has already asked the police to investigate. I believe we will get results soon." Loraine's heart was filled with hatred. She really wanted to cut that b

    During this period of time, Edric secretly visited Irene and Eden frequently. After a period of contact with Edric, Eden's bitterness towards Edric had reduced. He no longer refused his gifts and had started to talk to him. Edric was pleased with the change in Eden that had taken place. Apart from working in the company, and dealing with those evil b*stards, his free time was mainly spent with his son and Irene. Jordan's bitterness towards Edric had decreased as well. However, he was still a little worried when he saw how frequently he visited their home. Judging from Edric's actions, it was obvious that he was planning to reconcile with Irene. If Edric and Irene really were to get back together, what would happen to Nathan then? Nathan had waited for Irene for so many years, and his heart and feelings had never changed for her. There was no way for Edric to win at the most crucial part. Jordan was truly worried for Nathan. A few days ago, Nathan had

    Seeing how Nathan had been so anxious over the past few days and had not mentioned about returning to Haverland, Joanne was overjoyed. She knew exactly what kind of person her brother was. When something like that had happened to him, he would definitely feel ashamed to face Irene. If Irene were to find out that her brother had an affair, then the relationship between them would be completely ruined. Thinking about what had happened that day, Joanne felt proud of her plan. After knowing Rowane's true identity, Joanne was so excited that she could not sleep the whole night. The next morning, she felt a little dizzy when she was woken up by the alarm clock, but she still groggily got up. Then, she accompanied Britney to have breakfast. These days, she did not dare to live her life lazily in fear of annoying Britney again, and causing Britney's hate towards her to grow even more. During breakfast, Joanne pretended to be enthusiastic and asked Nathan if h

    Irene naturally did not know that Nathan had been tricked. She felt the same way as Jordan did. Nathan had called her a long time ago to say that he would return to Haverland. Why was he still not back? Irene was worried about Nathan, but Edric came to see her, telling her that Margaret had woken up and was worried about her and Eden. She wanted to see them with her own eyes, so he asked Irene to go to the hospital with Eden to visit Margaret. Hearing that Margaret had woken up, Irene was elated. Margaret had been in a coma for a long time, and Irene had been very worried. All her previous resentment towards Margaret had disappeared after the latter was comatose. However, Irene was slightly worried that Marie might recognize them if they brought Eden along to visit Margaret at the hospital. Edric reassured her that there was nothing to be worried about. Marie was busy enough with her own affairs and had no time to pay attention to them. After she was rest ass

    Edric did not sympathize with Rowane. He had been good to Rowane but Rowane had repaid him by working with Marie and harming him. If it weren't for them using the fake sperm to trick him in the past, Lily would be pregnant with his own child now. By then, there would be no chance of him and Irene getting back together. Death was simply too easy for Rowane, in Edric's eyes. Edric was now worried about Marie. Since she was so vicious, she must have done something else that no one knew. Moreover, with her vicious nature, if she could not achieve her goal, she would kill others. Would Malcom, Jordan's father, who was with her day and night, be in danger? Edric thought for a moment and then asked Jordan to persuade Malcom to leave Marie. The reason he wanted Malcom to leave was so because he was planning something and with Malcom in the way, it would be hard for Edric to execute his plans. After hearing Edric's words, Jordan was also very surprised. So, he went to

    The next morning, Marie went to the hospital. As soon as she entered, she ran into Tommy. After going back, Tommy's anger had been building up at the thought of how his mother had drugged Cecilia. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He had not dared to tell Cecilia that his mother was the one who had caused her miscarriage. With no one to talk to, he had no choice but to go to his friend, Sam, to complain. Tommy did not tell Sam the full truth either. He did not dare to mention that his biological mother was Loraine, or that she worked as a nanny for Edric. He just briefly said that his mother had objected to him and Rosa being together. Additionally, when he did not listen, his mother had drugged Rosa and caused her to have a miscarriage and large blood loss. He even told Sam that his mother had told the doctor not to tell him the real reason behind the miscarriage because she did not want him to find out. If Tommy had not overheard tha

    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. Why don't you wait until I get reven

    “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?"
