2022-01-25 20:00:58That 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

Irene was irked to see Edric. Without waiting for him to speak, she shouted, "Mr. Myers, what exactly do you want?" "Irene!" "Do you know that it's very annoying for you to show up here every day? Do you know that I almost lost Eden because of you pestering me so brazenly?" Irene questioned. "Irene, Eden's matter is an accident..." Edric trailed off. "An accident? Who told you that it was an accident? Edric, I'm telling you that it's all Margaret's planning. It was Margaret who hired a hitman to take Eden away as she wanted to threaten me!" Irene yelled. "Margaret did it? How could it be possible?" Edric asked. "Why is it impossible? She has threatened me several times. Is there anything that a vicious person like her can't do?" Irene's voice was increasing in a crescendo. "If it's really Margaret who did it, I will definitely straighten things out for you," Edric promised. "I don't need you to straighten things out for me. Edric, please, please let go of Ede

It was not until eleven o'clock in the night that Jordan left Irene's house reluctantly. Seeing that he started the car and left. Edric who had been hiding under the shade left too. "Things can't go on like this! It's too torturous to wait here every day, and it can't change anything," Edric thought. He had been thinking about it while driving his car. He had even told the Reed family the news. Why didn't they take any measures until now? Did they really plan to let Jordan marry a divorced woman who had a child? Thinking about it, Edric shook his head. Although Jordan's reputation was terrible, Pedro Reed, Jordan's grandfather had always favored him. Pedro was particular about finding an appropriate match for Jordan. Hence, it was impossible for him to agree to Jordan's choice. So why hadn't they stepped in and stopped Jordan from approaching Irene? Edric felt that it was a strange turn of the event. At this moment at a manor in Mencodia, Pedro held two iron

Rowane wore a pink dress that complimented her fair skin, making her look all the more beautiful. Edric, on the other hand, was dashingly handsome, given his height. They looked like a perfect couple made in heaven. Seeing Jordan and Irene walking over hand in hand, Edric narrowed his eyes slightly. Jordan was wearing a black suit without a tie. The top button of his black shirt was undone, revealing the silver chain on his neck. With his hand in his pocket, he looked equally dazzling. At this moment, Edric caught sight of a woman beside Jordan; she was holding his arm intimately. Edric’s gaze couldn't help but be locked on her. She was Irene; she was wearing a long purple dress, its train dragged along the ground. The delicate diamond on the hem of her dress was twinkling under the light. Her long black hair tumbled over her shoulders like waterfalls. Her languid eyelashes of velvet-black fluttered as she walked her way into the hall; her ink-b

Edric had married Irene for three years, but he didn't know that she could play the piano! On the contrary, Jordan was not surprised by the fact that Irene was so talented. She used to be the apple in Steven's eyes. Thus, it was normal for her to learn the piano from a young age. He walked to Irene's side and crouched down before he allowed his fingers to dance their ways on the piano keys gracefully. They had never played the piano together before, but they played in perfect harmony! "It is a four-hands performance! Oh my! I didn't expect Mr. Reed and Irene to have such unique skills! How romantic would it be if they are married in the future?" Randy's mouth was agape. When he saw Edric's cold gaze, he shut his mouth instantly. The mellifluous piano sound echoed in the hall. As the song came to an end, they looked at each other and smiled, their faces glowed under the spotlight. After a long time only the on lookers came back to their senses and bega

After parking the car at the condominium, Rowane helped Edric into the elevator. Edric had drunk too much, so he couldn't stand still at all. He had been leaning on Rowane all the while. She used all her strength to hold his body, slowly waiting for the elevator to reach their destination, and soon, the elevator stopped. Rowane helped Edric out of the elevator and stumbled into her unit. Rowane brought Edric into the bedroom and settled him on the bed. Then, she turned around and made a cup of honey water for him.

"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.

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!"

“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?"
