A few maids came in immediately and went straight to Azalea. She was afraid so she kept retreating. "What are you doing? I'm warning you, don't touch me! Michael won't spare you if he finds out that you lay a finger on me!" The maid ignored Azalea as she reached out to grab her. Azalea struggled and tried to bluff her way out of this. "I'm a pregnant mother. You'll have to bear the consequences if anything happens to my child!" Meadow looked at Azalea, who was being held by the maid, coldly. "You bitch, you're really cheap. You didn't forget to threaten others at this point. Do you really think anyone will be scared of you? Michael just wants the baby in your womb. He doesn't care what you at all. Teach her a lesson!" The maid agreed as she dragged Azalea into the kitchen. After a while, cries of pain could be heard from there. Azalea's wails were followed by the maid's apologetic voice. "Miss Clark, how can you be so careless? Why can't you even bring a cup of water?
Valeria smiled as she took out her phone to call Andrew. "Andrew, are you free tonight?" "Yes, what can I do for you, Valeria?" "I'm going to introduce a girl to you. See you tonight. She is beautiful and lively. I think you'll like her for sure." Andrew didn't expect Valeria to introduce him to a girl, but he didn't refuse as well. "Sure, see you tonight." Valeria decided on the venue on her own. "We'll meet up at the Wolf Group. I'll get someone to arrange a table for you." Andrew didn't down her suggestion. "Okay, I'll go with what you say." Anna heard the conversation between Andrew and Valeria throughout the whole process. Andrew's voice was husky, which was her favorite type of voice. She was a little eager, so she did not bother to hide her thoughts. "Then I have to dress up nicely to meet him tonight. Helen, I'm going to do my hair and buy some new clothes. You can pay for my expenses." Helen glared at her. "Anna, why can't you be more
Valeria looked at him in bewilderment. "That's right. What's the matter with you?" Raymond had a bad impression of Anna as soon as he thought of the last time they met. "What the hell? Why is her name the same as that girl Wiliam has introduced to me? What's the problem with you two? Why does the person you both introduce have the same name and surname? Say, Valeria, are you sure that Anna, whom you're introducing to Andrew, is really beautiful?" "Yes, I'm sure of it!" "How beautiful is she?" Raymond continued to ask. He seemed to be in total disbelief. "It's hard to describe her in words. Anyway, she is attractive. If you don't believe me, you can ask her as well. She has seen Anna before." "Mr. Raymond, Miss Taylor is truly ravishing. She is beautiful and has a cheerful personality," the aunt chimed in as well. Raymond felt that this was too incredible. The two women shared the same name, but one was beautiful while the other was a fierce woman. He
Francis had never thought that Michael would bring a woman to have dinner with him. Most importantly, this woman was not his girlfriend. Instead, she was his mistress. It was obvious that Michael didn't want to have anything to do with the Gurney family since he brought such a woman to attend dinner. Francis was both embarrassed and angry, but he couldn't express his frustration. Evelyn heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Michael bring a woman with him. She thought of countless ways to deal with him when she arrived at the restaurant. Now, she knew that she did not need any of her previous plans since Michael had brought a woman with him. Evelyn let go of her arrogance and aloofness since her mood improved tremendously. She invited Anastasia to have a seat warmly. "Ms. Baker, right? I've watched your videos. You did well." "Thank you!" Evelyn didn't put on any airs at all as she took the opportunity to chat with Anastasia. The latter was flatt
In the Wolf Group, Anna was wearing the latest tweed skirt as she walked into the reserved private box with the latest style of the tweed handbag in her high heels. There was no one in the room. Andrew was not here at all. Anna checked the time and realized that she had arrived ten minutes in advance. Was Andrew going to be late? It was not nice to let a woman wait. The door was pushed open when she thought of this. Andrew walked in and the two of them met face to face. They looked at each other carefully. Anna's pretty face was small and delicate. Her skin was fair and her eyes were limpid. There was a pot of blooming flowers right behind the chair she was sitting on. She looked as beautiful as the flowers, if not more, in contrast. Andrew was dressed in a suit. His facial features were distinct and he stood tall and straight. At first glance, she felt that he was even more handsome than Richard. Both of them had a good impression of each other's lo
Raymond didn't expect Anna to be such an ungrateful person. He shouldn't have helped this stupid woman. He pushed her hard to the floor after mustering his strength. She couldn't remain standing due to her sprained ankle. She fell to the ground after letting out a surprised yelp. She fell on her butt after her ankle was sprained. Even though she had always been a strong woman, she couldn't bear the pain. "It fucking hurts!" She cried out in pain and teared up, "Bastard! Jerk, how dare you push me! Ouch... It hurts... Just you wait..." Raymond was dumbfounded when he saw her crying. He thought that she would not cry since she was an arrogant woman. He didn't expect her to cry at all. He couldn't stand women crying the most, so he was at a loss for what to do. "What does this have to do with me? You brought it upon yourself!" "The nerve of you! You're the one who pushed me! I won't forgive you! Just you wait!" As she said threateningly, tears str
Anna was examined in the hospital. The doctor treated her feet before she was sent home by Andrew. Helen was startled when she saw Anna come back with a limp. "What happened?" "Ah, it's just bad luck. I ran into a crazy man. He scolded me and even pushed me, so I sprained my ankle." Helen looked at Anna suspiciously upon hearing this. "Are you sure you are not the one who pushed him first?" "Helen, how can you doubt me?" Anna felt really wronged. "I'm a noble lady from a respectable family. How can I squabble with someone like a ruffian?" Before Helen could say anything else, Richard came down from upstairs. "What's the matter?" "Anna was bullied when she went to see Andrew." Helen told Richard, "Look, her ankle is swollen." Richard stared at Anna and looked at her carefully. He asked suspiciously, "Weren't you meeting with Andrew in the Wolf Group? How can something happen there? Besides, did it actually happen right in front of Andrew? Isn't
As soon as they arrived at the parking lot, a fancy sports car drove into the parking lot with a roar of its engine. Angel's eyes glinted with excitement when she saw Richard in the driver's seat. She stopped expectantly and looked in his direction. Madelyn saw Richard as well, so she reminded Angel, "Miss, it's Richard! Who is the woman beside him? Why have I never seen her before? Is she his new girlfriend?" "Shut up! I'm not blind, so don't talk nonsense in front of me." Of course, Angel saw the beautiful woman in the passenger seat as well. She had her hair up in a bun. Her facial features were delicate while her skin was fair. She was beautiful without a doubt. Her clothes were very luxurious as well. She was wearing luxury brands from top to bottom. Angel used to wear these luxury brands every day in the past, but now things were different. It had been several months since she last had new clothes and new bags. After comparing herself to
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
