2022-01-06 20:00:07Margaret and Lily were upset, but it was the same for Edric too. Ever since he learned that Irene had remarried and had a child, he was never in peace. He always thought that Irene's appearance on the dating show was just to make up the numbers.
It turned out that she really wanted to find a father for Eden. That was why she chose someone like Bert. When he thought of the fact that Irene almost ruined her life by marrying Bert, he was filled with guilt, remorse, and hatred.
All that happened to Irene was because of him, and he had to think of a way to make up to her. Therefore, he could not focus on work for the past few days at all. After work, he did not go home, but drove around Southlake Residence where Irene lived. That time, he found that Jordan had become a frequent visitor of Irene's.
Looking at Jordan swaggering in and out of her house and playing with Eden, Edric was frustrated. Jordan looked at her with such passionate intent in his eyes. Even a blind

When the security guard finished the call, Eden, who was on the sofa, had already disappeared. Eden ran to the elevator and pressed the button a few times. However, the elevator wasn't opening. He didn't dare to stay put as he was afraid that the security guard would catch up to him. Without hesitation, he ran towards the exit.Edric was driving. He inadvertently glanced at the side and was shocked when he saw a familiar figure. "Isn't that Irene's child? Why is he alone on the road?" he thought. Edric immediately stopped the car and went straight to Eden. Eden was out of breath. All of a sudden, Edric was seen standing in front of him, asking, "Where are you going? Where is your mother?""Sir!" Eden exclaimed as if he had seen his savior. "There are bad guys chasing after me. I'm scared.""Fret not. I will protect you," Edric replied.Only after Irene was done with her fax did she realize that Eden was gone. She thought that Eden was playing in another o

Edric parked his car at the entrance. At the same time, Margaret had also reached their house in her own car. The duo went into the villa, both irate. The maid, Loraine Bush, was shocked when she saw Margaret's sorry state. She asked, "What's wrong?" Margaret didn't answer Loraine. She threw her purse on the sofa and hissed, "Let's talk!" "Okay!" Edric spat out a word and flounced himself onto the sofa. He looked at Margaret coldly and asked, "What do you want to talk about?" Margaret was smittering with fury when she saw how indifferent Edric was. "Edric, how can you be so coldblooded? I am your mother, but you didn't do anything when that woman splashed the water on me. Look at how arrogant that woman has become!" "You asked for it!" Edric sneered, "As a well-educated individual, how dare you interfere with other people in public? You even attacked her in front of her child! You should already consider yourself lucky that you got off with just that!" "How c

Even though Loraine was the maid to the Myers family, she was so vicious to her own employer. Lily felt a chill down her spine. After the matter was over, she had hoped Loraine would just leave with the money, but Deborah disagreed. She said Loraine could still be useful, and now it seemed like Deborah was right. "You can't drive a useful person away when the job is only half done. Is this how you plan on doing things in the future? Before you officially become a member of the Myers family, Loraine can't leave. Besides, we have Loraine's son as a leverage. Since we have something to hold against her, she won't just betray us." Deborah snorted. "Mom, you'd better think of a way to deal with Edric and Irene. What if they remarry each other? Goodness, I feel so anxious!" "As long as you can make sure that the child is not Edric's, nothing will happen." Deborah was not too worried. "The child is definitely not Edric's. If it were, Margaret would not have quarrele

After leaving Irene, Margaret went to meet Marie angrily. "I'm so angry. That woman will really be the death of me. She and I have always been on opposing ends. Even now when she's divorced with my son, she still haunts me." "Have some water and calm down." Marie poured a glass of water for Margaret. Margaret took a sip of water but she was still fuming when she thought about it. "She didn't want my money, that means she's still thinking of remarrying Edric. Edric, on the other hand, is also blinded by his emotions. She's a married woman with a child, yet he still pines after her. How infuriating." "She's going against you on purpose. When she couldn't have children, she's too ashamed to come back. Now that she has a child, she came back just to get under your skin. What an evil woman. She knows that Edric has feelings for her, and she's using him to turn you two against each other!" Marie commented worriedly. "Yes, she really is evil. I can't let her have it her way

The people present at the dinner were all famous in San Fetillo, but Irene only knew a few of them. Edric and Rowane sat by the window. When Edric saw Jordan and Irene enter, he swept his eyes past them indifferently and continued talking to Rowane. Seeing Jordan with Irene, someone immediately teased him, "Mr. Reed, is this your new girl?" Jordan glared at him and hissed, "Hey, watch it. This isn't my new girl, she's my fiancee, Irene!" "Fiancee?" Jordan's words attracted everyone's attention. Edric was holding a cup and drinking tea with a smile on his face, but his eyes darkened when he heard Jordan. Was Jordan serious? "Well, she really is beautiful. Mr. Reed, you're so lucky!" someone praised. "Of course. I only like a pretty and talented woman." Jordan was very proud. Irene scowled at him. Jordan pulled out the chair and said, "Take a seat, my dear!" His affectionate nickname for her made Irene grow goosebumps all over her body. There was a burst of laughter around the

That punch hit Edric in the eye. He was in so much pain that he let go of Irene at once. Instantly, Irene pushed him away as she was scared that he might go near her again. Edric adjusted his body position to protect Irene a while ago. Hence, when Irene pushed him with such great force, he fell and hit the food trolley. The loud sound shocked Irene. She looked over, only to see Edric lying on the ground with soup all over his body. The waitress who was pushing the trolley was so scared that her face went pale. She kept apologizing as she helped Edric up. Irene's face at this moment was still plastered with stupefaction. Edric's eyes were beaten black and blue by her. The expression on his face showed that he was clearly in pain then. She subconsciously reached out to help Edric. Suddenly, a scream came from behind, stopping her actions. Irene looked back and saw Rowane's face full of horror. Seeing Rowane, Irene immediately withdrew her hand and turned to go straight

"Take him back and interrogate him properly. How dare he stole a luxury car worth tens of millions of dollars and smashed it. Throw him into prison," Jordan hissed. "I didn't steal the car. This car was lent to me by a relative. If you don't believe me, you can ask him." James' voice now was as soft as a whisper. The police relied on the clues provided by James and notified the relative James was referring to. James' relative rushed to the police station, and when he saw Jordan, he greeted, "Mr. Reed, why are you here?" When Jordan saw that he was actually William's butler, he sneered and asked, "Did you lend him this car, or did he steal it?" The butler said with a sullen expression, "He is my nephew. He came to visit San Fetillo these few days, and when he saw the car, he wanted to take it for a ride. I had turned him down. But, I didn't expect that he would still drive it out while I was asleep. Mr. Reed, please forgive me this time." "So, he was driving the car w

A few days later, when Irene was working in the company, he received a call from Thomas. "Irene, Eden is missing!" "When did he go missing?" Irene was shocked. "Just now! I took him to play in the park, and he said that he wanted to eat ice cream. So I went to buy it for him, but when I came back, he disappeared!" Thomas explained. "How could this be?" Irene's heart went into an arrhythmia. She took the phone and rushed straight to Jordan's office. Ignoring anyone else, she directly called his name, "Jordan, something came up, and I need to excuse myself first. I'll do the rest of the work tomorrow." Seeing Irene's ashen face, Jordan knew at once that something serious had happened. "Irene, what happened?" "My son went missing in the park! I need to find him!" Irene explained. "I'll go with you!" Jordan immediately got up and followed Irene out of the company. The two got in the car and went straight to the park where Eden went missing. Along the way, Irene's face wa

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.

"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.

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.

“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.

“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?"
