"It's all her fault for having no self-control. Otherwise, why would she get beaten up in the first place? She can't blame anyone but herself!" Deborah hated these things the most and she didn't feel sorry for Madelyn at all. Fandrey wasn't on Deborah's side as usual, but he frowned and said, "That's true, but Madelyn is one of our staff. We can't just sit back and watch, can we?" "She is no longer working for us and I've already fired her after I heard about what happened last night!" "Mom, don't you think it's inappropriate? You fired her without investigating and she's injured. This is too inhumane, isn't it?" Callum interrupted after hearing Deborah's words. "Are you planning on hiring someone as shameless as her? We're a decent family and people will laugh at us if our staff does something like that. I can't afford to be humiliated." Deborah answered grumpily. "Mom! This is not a matter of shame. Let's hear what Madelyn has to say about this matter."
"Have you found the culprit? Did William's men manage to do it?" Sammuel immediately thought of William's men. Fandrey replied while he typed a message, "Yes, William has sent me a message. The culprit is from Anthony family and he's the relative of Paisley's nanny. Haha, I really wouldn't think of this." "William is amazing!" Sammuel praised sincerely. "Sir, what should we do next?" "Let's see what William is planning first," Fandrey said as William sent him another message that said, "Angel is an accomplice in this matter. How will you deal with her?" "I didn't expect her to become so vicious. If someone else did something as shameless as this, I would definitely not forgive them. But she is my only grandchild. William, I have always said that I'll treat everyone equally, but I've realized that I can't do it when the matter involves my family." "I understand your feelings, Grandpa. I would hesitate if this happened to me as well, but this is not the firs
The coldness in Fandrey's eyes grew even more intense after he watched Angel's clumsy performance. The girl standing in front of him was obviously his granddaughter, but the more disgusted he felt the longer he looked at her. How could she be so vicious and despicable? He would have sent her to prison a long time ago if she wasn't a member of the Floyd family. However, Fandrey controlled himself when he remembered what William had said. "The police is interrogating the culprits now, and I believe there will be results soon. Let's talk about Madelyn. She was beaten because of you, so shouldn't you think of something to make it up to her?" "I... I don't know that Aunt Madelyn would really buy snacks for me. This is my fault, but I didn't mean to..." Angel tried to defend herself, but Fandrey snorted and interrupted her. "Shut up! Now is not the time for you to defend yourself! Haven't you realized your own mistakes?" Deborah's heart ached when sh
Madelyn subconsciously asked in surprise, but Angel didn't think the same way. Wasn't her apology obvious enough? Was Madelyn pretending not to understand? Angel hated Madelyn to the extreme and wondered if Madelyn was doing it on purpose. Madelyn must've intended to humiliate her. Angel clenched her hands and it took a lot of effort for her to control herself before she repeated the words of apology. "I said that I should have stood up for you and explained the fact that you were insulted because you went out to buy snacks for me. You were misunderstood and you even almost got fired. Grandpa reprimanded me that it was wrong for me to do this. I have deeply realized my mistake, so please forgive me for being selfish and weak." Madelyn's heart instantly fell because it was not Angel who saved her! It was all thanks to Fandrey and Angel chose to stay silent after the accident. Madelyn understood after she looked at Angel's extremely pale face and the staff w
Madelyn's face changed again after she listened to Emily's words. Was Emily telling her that all these incidents were planned by Angel? Was Angel so vicious? Impossible! She was Angel's biological mother, so how could Angel be so heartless to her? Madelyn did not believe Emily's suspicion. "Are you crazy? How dare you suspect Ms. Floyd? I'm telling you that she will never do that!" "Do you think you know Ms. Floyd very well? I'm telling you, everyone in Floyd family are not kind. They are cruel!" "You can't think badly of everyone just because your relationship failed. I don't know the reason for what happened at that time, so I have no judgement towards Deborah and Fandrey. Ms. Floyd is kind-hearted and very good-tempered. She isn't arrogant even to servants and she is a good person." A hint of sarcasm appeared on the corners of Madelyn's lips. "You're not going to leave after you've become a servant of the Floyd family as a servant, are you?" "Yes,
When Madelyn saw Deborah's kind expression, she felt relieved and got up to return to the hospital. Deborah had very innocent thoughts and she did not believe that her granddaughter would be so vicious. Since Madelyn had taken the initiative to help Angel clarify the matter, she had to immediately tell Fandrey about it. Deborah called Fandrey and told him exactly what Madelyn had told her. Fandrey was very surprised, "This is really unexpected of Madelyn. I didn't expect her to take the initiative to plead for Angel and bear the responsibility. Haha, this is interesting." "Hey, don't be cynical, okay? Angel is not a bad person. Although she has done something bad, everyone will definitely make a few mistakes in their lives? Didn't you say that you can improve if you admit to your mistakes? Why are you so biased towards your own granddaughter? Can't you give her a chance?" "Yes, you're right." Fandrey didn't take Deborah's words seriously. "Since Made
Azalea didn't manage to ask anything on the phone, so she didn't feel relieved. Meadow sent her a message, "I solved your mother's problem. The Floyd family didn't fire her and they kept her instead." "What's going on? Didn't the Floyd family get very angry last night?" "I don't know the specific reason, but I just called your mother. She proudly told me that the Floyd family was very concerned about her. Miss Floyd didn't come over last night, but she especially apologized to Madelyn. The culprits were caught as well. Azalea, call your mother and take care of her. I know that you don't like your mother, but you still have to put on an act." "I have already called her, but she was very angry and she told me not to contact her in the future. Meadow, why does the Floyd family want to help her?" "I don't know much about this. Does it have something to do with your aunt? Since your mother is fine, you can just call her every now and then. Remember that you have to t
Angel immediately got up and went to Callum's office after she made up her mind. Callum just came back and he was drinking tea, but he frowned when he saw Angel coming in. "Why don't you stay in your office to do your work?" Angel held back her anger and said, "Dad, I came to you to tell you something important. I just received a message and the sender wanted to tell me about her biological mother. Have a look." She gave the message she had received to Callum, who was stunned after he read it. Who sent it to Angel? Callum did not believe that Emily sent it. She was completely indifferent the last time she saw Angel and she did not show any desire to recognize Angel as her daughter. Based on his understanding of Emily, she would contact him instead of sending Angel a message. So who sent this? What did they want from this? Callum thought in his heart, but he stayed silent. "Alright, tell me immediately if this person sends another message to you."
On the day of Azalea's recovery, she was escorted out of the hospital by two police officers to wait for her sentence. She was wearing shackles and handcuffs as she walked through the parking lot. She saw Michael with Abbie, who was holding Emma in her arms. Michael was holding Abbie's waist, ready to get into their car. Seeing that Michael had recovered, Azalea was extremely perplexed. She had learned from the police that Leonard's man had tried to kill her to silence her and knew that Leonard was using her, so she did not regret her vicious behavior. Azalea stared at the child in Abbie's arms and Michael as she started to have vicious thoughts. If the one who got injured that day was Abbie, and if Abbie died, everything would be different now, wouldn't it? Michael would be living a life worse than death. His child would not have a mother anymore, and no one could have what she couldn't. She would be satisfied. However, all of this was just her imaginatio
After Leonard's matter was settled, Richard returned to the Clark family. Abbie wasn't asleep yet and was sitting alone in the living room in a daze. Richard walked to her and sat down. Then, he reached out and patted her on the shoulder. "Why aren't you asleep yet?" "I can't sleep. Richard, he... he will be fine, won't he?" "Don't think too much. He will be fine." "I don't want anything to happen to him... Richard, I actually hate him very much and have never thought of being with him again. I have suffered enough! Every time I made up my mind to cut all ties with him, something bad would happen like what happened now. Richard, what should I do?" Richard understood Abbie's dilemma. "Abbie, do you still love him?" "I don't know! I hate him! I hate him so much!" "You can't let him go, can you? You and he broke up three times, but he has always been in your heart." Richard sighed. "To be honest, I don't want you and him to start over again. After
It was late at night in Azalea's ward as she lay on the bed and fell asleep with her eyes closed. Three of Azalea's ribs were broken while one of her hands was handcuffed to the hospital bed. The policeman guarding her felt that there was no way she could escape, so he relaxed his guard. The man who was arranged by Leonard's assistant had been waiting for the right moment in the hospital. Then, they immediately entered the ward and attacked Azalea when they saw that the policeman had left. Just as they covered Azalea's mouth and were about to suffocate her to death, a soft voice could be heard by the door of the ward. "Hey! Are you trying to silence her?" The man turned his head and saw that Bobby were taking photos with his mobile phone while Silas was bent over in laughter. Later, Leonard was woken up at 2 a.m. in the morning when Richard and his bodyguards came to visit him furiously. Leonard had already guessed the purpose of Richard's visit as soon as
It had been two days since Leonard's assistant brought Azalea back to the city and she was specially sent here today to attack Michael. Although Azalea hated Michael, she did love him immensely in the past and she didn't want to kill him. The one she hated the most was still Abbie. She had been overshadowed by Abbie since she was a child and she had never won against her before. It was all thanks to Abbie now that she ended up like this. Michael wouldn't deal with her if it weren't for Abbie, and she wouldn't have been driven to a dead end like this. She was going to die in the end anyway, so she wanted nothing more than to drag Abbie down with her. She knew that she couldn't get close to Abbie. Besides, she also knew very well that Leonard wanted to use her to kill Michael so that he could marry Abbie. Azalea acted as if she had been persuaded by Leonard's assistant to attack Michael, but in fact, her target was Abbie all along. She saw how desperat
Azalea looked up when she heard the voice and met Leonard's assistant's gaze in the car. She stopped crying once he got out of the car. "Miss Clark, I've been looking for you everywhere!" Azalea lowered her head frantically when she saw him, but he said warmly, "Miss Clark, get in the car." She didn't know if Leonard's assistant knew about the murder she'd committed, so she hesitated for a moment before getting into the car. He then gave her a bottle of water and some food. Azalea was famished because she hadn't eaten anything for a few days, so she wolfed down her food desperately. Leonard's assistant had been observing Azalea all this time, and he said once she finished eating, "I know what you've done! The police are now looking for you everywhere." Azalea's expression was filled with panic. "Are you going to hand me over to the police?" "No, I'm here to help you." "How can you do that?" Azalea asked in frustration. "I won't be a
It started to rain again early in the morning, which made the air in the mountains damp and cold. Meanwhile, Azalea lay motionlessly on the messy bed. She could hear the child's wailing from outside while Monthel's mother tried to coax the child. However, there was no sign of it ending even after some time. Monthel's mother started to become angry as well, so she scolded the child and eventually began to target Azalea again. "Why are you still lying in bed at this time? I've never seen someone as lazy as you. A wife should get up early in the morning to cook, but you are the only one who will laze around like this!" This was not the first time that Azalea had been scolded. Monthel's mother had begun to pick on her the second day after she arrived. Azalea would fight back initially, but she no longer dared to talk back after she was slapped in the face by Monthel. Monthel's mother cursed outside for a while. Then, she lifted the curtain and came into the ro
Leonard's expression turned very ugly, but Richard did not give him a chance to even catch his breath. "After I learnt of your relationship with her, I sent someone to extract the DNA of the fetus in Evelyn's belly and compare it with yours. The results show that she's indeed pregnant with your child, but you can verify it personally if you don't believe me." Since Richard dared to say this, there was no possibility for Leonard to turn the tables. The veins on Leonard's forehead bulged as he was filled with humiliation. He initially wanted to get back at Fandrey by asking him to propose the marriage to the Clark family, but she ended up being embarrased like this. He was furious, but Richard continued, "We are very grateful to you for saving Abbie's life. Although she can't marry you, we can continue to be friends if you want to." What could Leonard say? He had done a terrible mistake, so he couldn't possibly tell Richard that he wanted to cut all ties between t
Abbie tried her best to escape, but it was useless. Michael even kissed her on the face a few times, which made her so angry that her voice trembled. "Michael... F*ck you... I'm going to kill you!" Michael turned a deaf ear to her words because he hadn't been so close to Abbie for such a long time. He missed her like crazy, so how could he bring himself to let her go? Abbie kept struggling desperately, but her physical strength was no match for Michael's. Michael then carried her back to the sofa, which made her furious because she couldn't escape. "Michael, what are you trying to do?" Michael did not answer her at all. Instead, he just hugged her so tightly as if he didn't want to let her go at all. He hugged her for such a long time that her whole body had gone numb. "Michael, what's wrong with you? Let go of me! I can't move!" It was only then did Michael let go of Abbie. Her limbs had already gone numb and she felt extremely uncomfortable. Just t
Michael happily placed the coffee he ordered for Abbie in front of her. "Here, I've ordered your favourite coffee." However, Abbie sneered and picked up the coffee to splash it all over him. The coffee was very hot, but Michael just smiled bitterly and said, "Do you hate me so much?" "What do you think?" Abbie looked at Michael coldly without any affection in her eyes. "My feelings for you have never changed! What happened between me and Azalea is all fake, and I've never had anything to do with her. The news with Anastasia was also fake. I was the one who used her to provoke Azalea, but Leonard made up those news articles to get back at me. I swear, I haven't been with anyone else apart from you!" Abbie let out a cold laugh, "Really?" "I'm serious! I swear that I'm not lying to you!" "There's no need to swear, or else even you'll beleive your own lies." Michael became desperate when it was obvious that Abbie didn't believe him. "What do I have
