Paisley laughed and said, "He's so heartless! He can't wait for the divorce, can he?"

Gurmisran's voice was cold. "Ms. Anthony, you should know why Mr. Laban married you. Since you were the one who screwed things up, you should take the initiative to back out. Everyone will be happy then!"

"What if I don't back out?" Paisley asked, "How is Mr. Laban planning to deal with me?"

"Ms. Anthony, you're all mature people, and we should do things according to the rules. The losers are always in the wrong. You should be clear on the reason you married Mr. Laban back then. There is no relationship between you two, only benefits. Since there are no good prospects of gain anymore, why do you want to be entangled with Mr. Laban?"

"You're right! Indeed, there's no reason for me to be entangled with him, but I'm not contented! I am also an esteemed young lady of a prestigious household. I would surely feel discontented as I am thrown away like a rag by Mr. Laban as he pleased.

    When she heard that she was moving into the Floyd family's mansion, Azalea was overjoyed. "Thank you, Dad!" However, Emily's reaction was different, and she was not happy at all. Instead, she asked Callum, "You're asking her to move back? What about Angel?" "Don't worry about her. She's not important now!" "That's not the case. Angel is still the eldest daughter of the Floyd family, and Azalea's identity hasn't been recognized yet. What will she look like if she moves back?" Callum thought that Emily wanted the Floyd family to recognize Azalea's identity extravagantly, so he explained hurriedly, "Emily, it's not that we don't want to recognize Azalea's identity, but we are worried about her safety. You know the twists and turns behind this. What if Ornard finds out about Azalea and harms her? So we can't recognize Azalea's identity now. We have to wait until after we deal with him." "I know what you mean. It's exactly because of this that I won't allow Aza

    Michael went inside after he entered the password and heard Abbie's cough from the room. He quickly walked a few steps and pushed open the bedroom door. Abbie, who was on the bed, heard the sound and looked over in shock. When Abbie saw that it was Michael, a look of surprise flashed across her face. "Aren't you in the hospital? Why are you here?" "Grandpa has servants to take care of him in the hospital. I'm worried about you, so I came to have a look. Have you taken medicine?" "Yes!" Abbie nodded. "Then eat something. I bought you supper you like." Michael opened up the food in his hand and handed it to Abbie. Abbie was famished, so she immediately started eating without hesitating and said, "I was about to order takeout. You came in time." Michael watched her as she devoured the food and wiped her mouth with a tissue. His voice and expression were gentle as he said, "Slow down. You look like you haven't eaten in days." "I haven't eaten anyth

    Michael's car stopped in the hospital parking lot and he saw Meadow's car at a glance. Was Meadow here to see Wayne? Why was she so early? Michael frowned. He got out of the car and went straight to Wayne's ward. When he pushed open the door, he only saw the servants and Wayne in the room, and Meadow was nowhere to be seen. Michael was slightly stunned. "Is my mother not here?" A servant answered immediately, "Madam hasn't come yet." "I saw her car in the parking lot." "Maybe she has something else to do," Wayne replied. Michael didn't think much about it. "Grandpa, how do you feel?" "I have a tightness in my chest, and I'm short of breath and dizzy!" Michael replied. "I'll ask the doctor to come and have a look." Michael was about to call for the doctor, but Wayne stopped him. "I've told the doctor. He will prescribe me some medicine and give me an IV." Since the doctor knew about Wayne's situation, Michael did not go to the

    In the VIP ward upstairs, Meadow opened the door with flowers in her arms. She said with a smile, "Azalea, I'm here to see you!" "Aunt Meadow!" Azalea greeted Meadow warmly as she walked in, while Emily looked at Meadow cautiously. Ignoring Emily's expression, Meadow greeted her with a smile. "Hello, Ms. Poland!" "Hello! Sit here!" Emily invited Meadow to sit down and poured a glass of water for her out of courtesy. Meadow took the water and thanked Emily. Then she explained to Azalea apologetically, "Azalea, I didn't know that you were in the hospital. When I got the news the day before yesterday, I wanted to come to see you immediately, but Wayne fell sick suddenly. So my visit here was delayed for two days. Azalea, don't blame me!" Azalea replied immediately, "I know you treat me well. I won't blame you!" "I've always known that you are a kind child. You have been through a hard time!" "Aunt Meadow, I'm fine!" "How are you fine? You an

    Meadow left Azalea's ward, and she couldn't wait to go to Wayne's ward to report the good news. She couldn't hide her smile when she entered the room. "Dad, I went to Azalea's ward and persuaded Emily. She is Azalea's birth mother and is very important to Callum. I think this is more or less a success." Wayne responded, "You did the right thing. But it is not time for us to sit back and relax yet. This is only the beginning, and I need to make some arrangements. I also need to get Callum to cooperate with me. Only then could we get Michael to listen to us." Meadow rubbed her hands together and asked, "Dad, what else do you need me to do?" Wayne shook his head and said, "Since you have persuaded Emily, then let's wait and see. If Emily is able to influence Callum, as you said, and Callum also wants his daughter to live a happy life, I think Callum would take the initiative to talk to me about this matter. Now we only need to wait." After Azalea was picked up by t

    Azalea was taken back to the mansion by the bodyguard and servant of the Floyd family. She was in a good mood back as she thought her suffering had ended. From then on, she would be able to enjoy the extravagant life of a rich and powerful family. As today was her first day back with the Floyd family, the Floyd family should be waiting for her at home, and they would welcome her enthusiastically later. The car stopped outside the Floyd family's mansion. Azalea was delighted as she glanced at the door. But not to mention the Floyd family. Not even a single servant was waiting outside. The difference between her imagination and reality was too big, and Azalea was extremely disappointed. The bodyguard got out of the car and opened the door. "Miss Clark, we're here. Please get down!" Azalea suppressed the disappointment in her heart and followed the bodyguard and servant into the mansion. They passed through a long courtyard and met several servants along the

    Azalea was most worried that Deborah would not like her because of Emily. Now that even Deborah, who she disliked Emily the most, loved her so much, it would be easier for her to win over the others. She was always perceptive since young. Azalea was confident that she would be able to get on the good side of everyone in the Floyd family and get them to answer to her every whim. From now on, she would start showing them what she was made of. As Azalea thought this, she only said nice things to Deborah which delighted Deborah very much. Deborah had always felt guilty towards Azalea. When she saw how obedient and sweet Azalea was, Deborah couldn't help liking her. She felt that Azalea was a thousand times better than that wretched Angel. As they had let Azalea suffer through too much, now that she has returned, they must treat her extra well to make up for everything Azalea had been through. After lunch, Deborah kindly let Azalea go to her room to rest.

    Deborah felt that this method was feasible and immediately called Valeria. "Valeria, do you have time tonight? Grandma wants to invite you and William for dinner!" "I have time. Let William and I treat you to dinner then!" Valeria said dotingly. "You two don't have to treat me. Let me treat you guys to dinner instead. By the way, it isn't only me. Azalea will be there as well." William had long known that Azalea was Callum's child. Deborah's words were a reminder to Valeria. Valeria and William were both courteous people. After knowing Azalea's identity, they would surely give her welcoming gifts. Valeria and William were also pretty generous. So the gift they would give Azalea would certainly be an expensive one. If so, Azalea wouldn't be mindful of Fandrey and Callum not coming back for dinner.  Upon hearing that Azalea would be there as well, Valeria responded as usual. "Got it, we will be there on time." After hanging up the phone, Valeria frowne

    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
