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
Seeing Logan dragging Rosa in by her leg while she was unconscious, Tommy started to panic. "You can't treat her like this. She has just gone through a miscarriage! She's very weak and can't stand so much stress!" "Wow, you're more affectionate than I thought," Marie sneered and walked over. Then she kicked him hard on the head, "B*stard, let's see if you still dare to threaten me!" "Affectionate? Hahaha please!" Deborah laughed, "Do you really believe that this b*stard loves that b*tch? They are lying to you. The child in her belly was definitely not his! They're just putting on an act to scam you." "Nonsense. The baby in her belly is mine!" Tommy retorted. There was no way Rosa had been with another man while she was with him. Besides, they were so in love. How could she lie to him? "Why don't we wake this sl*t up and ask her?” Deborah sneered and poured a bucket of water on Rosa. Rosa quickly woke up from the cold. "Sugar? W
However, there was more agony to come. Wasn't she Jordan's fiancée now? She used to regularly go over to suck up to Lydia. However, now whenever she went over, the Reed family's servants would always use some reason to send her away. Joanne was not stupid. She knew that Lydia did not want to see her. She must know the reason why Britney had abandoned her. Joanne felt like she was in danger, Lydia did not like her and Jordan did not love her. How was she supposed to marry into the Reed family now? Joanne had no idea that Nathan had already spilled all her dirty secrets to Jordan. She used to be a good obedient girl in his mind and Nathan really had adored her. Even after he found out she had plotted against Irene, he did not tell Jordan about it. However, this time, Nathan had enough of Joanne and her schemes. He used to think that Joanne deserved a second chance to turn over a new leaf, so he did not want to expose her. However, when she had plotted even agai
Rowane was smart and she seemed kind. Unfortunately, her grandson, Nathan only had Irene in his heart. If not, Rowane would definitely be a top contender. Britney had taken a liking to Rowane, so she told her to not be in such a hurry and that she would help her find a job. After all, the White family ran a huge business. It was child's play to help her arrange for a job. However, Rowane said that the reason she wanted to get a job was so she would not have to burden Nathan anymore. She insisted on finding a job on her own, without the White family's help. Britney had no choice but to agree due to Rowane's insistence. Since Rowane was not familiar with her surroundings, Britney had two maids follow her around. Once Rowane was more settled in, then she could find a job. After receiving Marie's instructions, Dunn had been lurking around outside the White family's home. When he saw Rowane come out, he secretly tailed her and waited for a chance to strike.
After hanging up, Irene found that Edric was behind her, she asked, "When did you arrive?” "Just a second ago," Edric said with distress, "Irene, please give up on Nathan!" "Why?" Irene asked. "I heard everything just now. Nathan already has another woman and a child. Why do you have to bring yourself down and insist on following him?" "Bring myself down? I don't feel like I’m bringing myself down at all!" Irene retorted. "Nathan has another woman and that woman has a child. Don't you feel uncomfortable just thinking about that? Why are you so willing to accept her and her child?" Edric asked. "Nathan treats me very well. Since he has accepted my child, why can’t I accept his?" Irene replied. "I understand what you're thinking. You're accepting Nathan and his child born from another woman not because you love Nathan, but because Nathan treats you well, and you just want to find someone to rely on. Irene, you can't do th
A big hand was rubbing her plump breast, and her mouth was blocked. It smelled bad, and there was a stabbing pain in her lower body. Something hard went into her lower body. The stabbing pain sobered Marie up all of a sudden. She opened her eyes and looked at Simon in disbelief. She had already locked the door from the inside, so how did that b*stard get in? Naturally, she did not expect for Simon to be an expert in picking locks. The security lock did not stop him at all. Simon grew excited when touching Marie, and he kept kissing and touching her. He was disgusting! Marie struggled desperately, trying to bite and punch him, but she was not able to fight Simon off. After being locked up in jail for so many years, how could Simon let go of an opportunity to have some fun? He pressed Marie down with his hand while continuing, and after some time, he finished inside of Marie. Marie felt disgusted and angry at the same time, but she could not do anything.
While Rowane's head was in a mess, the door was pushed open. Sophia walked in with a bowl in her hand, "Miss Jodie, you haven't slept yet?" Rowane nodded and Sophia passed a bowl of soup to her, "Since you haven't eaten anything tonight, I've cooked some soup for you. Have some.” "Thank you, Sophia!" Rowane was very touched. "You don't have to thank me. You are pregnant now, so you need to consume more nutritious food. It's our responsibility to take care of you." Hearing Sophia's words, Rowane's face darkened. What did she mean by that? It was still unknown whether she could give birth to that child or not. As Sophia had been working for the White family for so many years, her ability to observe other people's expressions was naturally extraordinary. Seeing Rowane's expression, she knew that Rowane had to be feeling uneasy. She asked tentatively, "Miss Jodie, what are you going to do now?" Rowane gave Sophia a pained look, "I don't kn
Irene stood up and walked out with Maisy. After closing the door, Steven sighed and said, "I don't have much time left.'' "You will recover with enough rest. You will be better after undergoing the necessary treatment," Edric comforted. "I know my own body. I called you here today because I have something to tell you," Steven heaved a long sigh, "I'm being investigated!" "What?” Edric was shocked, "When did this happen?” "The official notice hasn't been released, but it should be soon. I've asked you to come here to arrange the funeral," Steven looked at Edric with a complicated look, "Irene is in your hands now, and I hope you'll treat her well." "I will. Be rest assured about that," Edric promised, ”I don't think your situation is that serious. Don't worry, I will think of a way." Steven shook his head, "There's no need for that!" He told Edric that Myra's murderer was Deborah, "I've been regre
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?"
