The most important thing that Deborah and Fandrey had to do every day was to visit Valeria in the maternity centre to play with the twins. Deborah specially brought the bird's nest soup for Valeria when she came. While Fandrey and the midwives were watching the twins, Deborah brought the bird's nest and opened it for Valeria to eat. Valeria took the hot bird's nest with a smile and said, "Grandma, I've gained another half a kilogram recently. I need to lose weight, but you keep giving me delicious food. It seems that I won't be able to go on a diet." "Now is not the time to lose weight and you have to recuperate. All you need to do now is to eat and sleep well. You need to take good care of yourself. You can think about having a nice figure after 50 days." "I'm afraid that I'll be 100kg in 50 days. How can I lose so much weight?" Valeria touched her double chin. "It's okay. Just eat this first and I'll go on a diet with you when the time comes." Vale
Fandrey and Deborah looked at each other when they heard that Angel was downstairs. "Why is she here?" "Did she follow both of you here? The bodyguards told me that they stopped Angel when she wanted to come up at first. She didn't leave, but she has been waiting in the parking lot with the flowers in her arms." "She's really..." Deborah was so angry that she wanted to scold Angel for being shameless, but she stopped when she saw the nanny and midwife. Fandrey looked calm. "In that case, let's go down and have a look." William followed them out when they walked out of the door. "Grandpa, Grandma, take care!" Fandrey smiled. "There's no need to send me off. I know what I'm doing." Deborah couldn't help but curse when they entered the elevator, "How could she still have the guts to see us? What is she up to by following us here?" "What do you think? She wants to come back to the Floyd family and continue to enjoy life after she suffered outside!"
Fandrey suddenly changed his expression and scolded Deborah, but she didn't give in to him. "Did you just scold me? You damned old geezer, how dare you? Did I say anything wrong? Angel has been driven out for such a long time, don't you miss her?" Fandrey said coldly, "No! Why would you miss someone as shameless as her?" "I don't care, I miss her so much. I brought Angel up since she was small and she has always been with me. You've driven her out for such a long time, so why don't you let her come home? Do you think we can't afford to take care of her? Besides, didn't she say that she was sick? We only have one granddaughter, so how can you bear to let her suffer outside?" Deborah's words were sad, but Fandrey was not moved at all. "She asked for it and she didn't deserve any sympathy! She couldn't even uphold her image and she did something so shameful. Why should I give in to such a shameless person?" "I will happily do that and I want her to come home!
Meanwhile, in the Saunders family, Raymond strode downstairs and went straight to the kitchen to ask Natalie, "Mom, are you ready?" "I'll have to wait another half an hour." Natalie lifted her wrist and glanced at her watch. Raymond sniffed the strong aroma in the air and said, "It smells so good!" "Do you want to eat it?" Natalie asked with a smile. "Would you give it to me? Didn't you make for your precious daughter? I would have to stand aside and wait for my turn if I want to eat it." Raymond said pitifully. "Hey, when have I ever treated you badly? Don't you feel guilty when you say that?" Raymond touched his nose and changed the subject with some embarrassment. "Why does this take so long? Didn't you start cooking in the morning? Why isn't it done even after six hours?" "I had to simmer this on a small flame so that the soup becomes thick and flavourful," Natalie replied slowly. She was very calm, but Raymond was in a hurry. "I thou
Raymond looked at the wicked smile on William's face. He was so angry that he reached out to grab the box from William's hand. "I'll take it back since you don't like it." William reached out to block Raymond's hand. "How can you take back a gift? Don't you know that's rude?" He ordered Bobby while he spoke, "Put it away!" "William, aren't you too thick-skinned? Why do you have a say in everything?" Raymond glared at William. "Don't I have the right to do so? Why should I take it if that wasn't the case?" Raymond was speechless. It was impossible for him to be a match for William. He chuckled and turned his head to hold Santhos, who was in Hayden's arms. "Grandpa, let me hug him!" Hayden asked cautiously, "Do you know how to do it properly?" "Who doesn't know how to carry a child?" Raymond said as he took Santhos from Hayden and carefully held him. Raymond was in a much better mood when he saw Santhos' toothless smile. "Who said that he o
Meanwhile, in the Davis family, Wayne was sitting in the study while he was preparing to write. He felt depressed when he saw the new inkstone placed on the desk. The inkstone he loved the most had been smashed to pieces by Azalea. He had spent a huge sum on it and he often took it out to show off to his guests. But the broken pieces were now placed in his drawer. Michael put down his pen and sighed heavily as he sat down. He looked a little older after returning from the hospital, and the hair on the temples was obviously much whiter than before. His recent days were filled with worries. Michael and Azalea had been fighting non-stop, and the company's stocks had fallen for three days because of the scandals that Michael created. Michael was one of the major shareholders, so Wayne felt distressed the company's market value suddenly drop so much. He called Michael a lot of times during this period of time, but none of his calls was answered. Meadow and Stan
Meadow no longer stayed in the examination room. She left with her mobile phone and intended to ignore Azalea. The doctor tried to talk to Azalea, but she was too pretentious. She continued to shout until the doctor lost his patience. "Miss, do you really want to check your foot or not? I'm very busy and there are many patients waiting outside. You can leave if you don't want me to check up on your injury, don't occupy my time." Azalea was so angry that she yelled at the doctor, "Who are you? Who gave you the guts to speak to a patient like this? I can lodge a complaint and make you lose your job!" The doctor had a temper as well and he had never been so worked up before. If it weren't for the fact that the hospital had rules that banned him from arguing with his patients, he would have given Azalea a piece of his mind by now. Did she want to complain about him? Did she know that this was his territory? He could make her life easier or harder as he wished
Meadow felt looked at Francis subconsciously when she felt his cold gaze on her. His expression was chill and there was not a trace of a smile on his face. When Meadow could feel Francis' contempt for her, her face stiffened and the corners of her mouth twitched. Azalea could sense his unfriendly gaze as well and her heart skipped a beat. It was natural for her to know who Francis was and she knew that he wasn't someone that she could provoke. Azalea did not dare to meet Francis' gaze, so she lowered her head and avoided him. Dr. Smith took all this into account in his eyes. Francis thanked him and looked at Meadow and Azalea like that. Was he trying to help him? It was really interesting. Would Francis still thank him if he knew what he had done to Evelyn during the operation? Dr. Smith had a smile on his face as he thought of this and said politely, "You're being too polite. Miss Gurney is my patient and I care for her like a parent. This is what e
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
