The smile on Azalea's face did not change at all when Meadow said that to her. "Mom, aren't you being forgetful? You allowed me to call you 'mom' before this. No matter what, I'm the daughter-in-law that you carefully selected. Isn't it natural for me to call you mom?" Meadow's face turned pale when she heard Azalea's words. She choked up and she felt uncomfortable as she scolded, "Shut up!" "Why do want me to keep my mouth shut? Wouldn't that be a disgrace?" Azalea laughed. "I won't keep quiet. I have to catch up with my mother and grandfather today!" "Who would want to talk to you? Get lost now!" Meadow shouted angrily. "Let me say my piece first! We won't be able to avoid each other since we stay under the same roof, so you should give me a chance." Azalea changed her position. "Mom, you were the one who took the initiative to look for me. I never thought of marrying Michael because there was a huge difference between us. I wouldn't have the guts to eve
Azalea was so bold to the point that she dared to negotiate with Wayne. Meadow thought that Wayne would be furious, so she immediately tried to deal with Azalea. However, she was wrong and Wayne was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "No, your request is not overboard at all!" After saying that, Wayne waved to the servants who were going to drag Azalea. "You can leave now. It's time to serve breakfast." Meadow looked confused as the maid who grabbed Azalea left quickly. Then, the kitchen staff quickly made preparations and brought the breakfast out. Wayne walked to the main seat and sat down. Then, he began to have breakfast calmly. The servants also brought breakfast to Meadow and Azalea. However, Meadow was pissed off by Azalea that she couldn't bring herself to eat. Azalea did not feel stressed at all. She drank a large cup of milk, ate a stack of shrimp dumplings, two steamed buns, and a bowl of porridge. She even let out a huge
Meanwhile, at seven o'clock in the evening in Climax Space. The black-clad bodyguard opened the car door respectfully. Evelyn was dressed luxuriously as she walked out of the car with a limited edition handbag. She smiled and walked up the stairs gracefully when she looked at the gold sign of Climax Space. The uniformed staff member opened the door and Evelyn walked in with her head held high. The assigned staff came over with a smile and led the way. Evelyn was then taken into the elevator and she went into the private room. There were many young socialites from rich families in the room. Michael and Anastasia were among them. Anastasia then immediately told Michael when she saw Evelyn coming in, "Miss Gurney is here!" When she saw that Michael did not respond, she could only stand up with a smile and say hello to Evelyn. However, Michael did not even look up and he continued to smoke his cigarette. Evelyn didn't have many friends in B C
Evelyn didn't take it seriously at first when Pierre mentioned the inside story of who plotted against Valeria. She had hidden her schemes against Valeria so well and it had nothing to do with Paisley. The reason why Pierre said this was probably because he wanted to curry favour with William. But Pierre glanced at her when he finished speaking. His smile before he left was so sinister that it made Evelyn feel uneasy. Did Pierre really know something? No one else knew that she had a crush on William, so how did Paisley know about it? Was her actions that obvious? The more Evelyn thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. She had to test if Pierre really knew the inside story of her schemes. If that was true, she had to take action first and stop Pierre. Evelyn thought about it and stood up as well. "I'm going to the washroom." Michael watched Evelyn walk out with a sneer on his face. Only someone with a guilty conscienc
Meanwhile, in the Davis family. Azalea was waiting impatiently because dinner was two hours later than usual, so she angrily went to the kitchen to check. "Why is dinner so late today?" "Sir is coming home a bit later because he had something to do, so dinner had to be delayed." The servant didn't want to talk to Azalea, but she did not dare to ignore her when she saw how fierce the latter was in the morning. After all, neither Wayne nor Meadow could do anything to Azalea, let alone a servant like her. "I'm starving to death! Prepare something for me to eat first. I'm pregnant and it's not good for me to be hungry." The servant became angry when she heard Azalea's arrogant voice. "Sir will be back soon, so please wait a little longer. Otherwise, he will get angry when he sees you eating first because that's against the rules." "Did you just insult me?" Azalea directly hit the servant's face. "The rules are stringent, but don't you know that people can have
When the driver suddenly stopped the car, Evelyn slammed onto the front seat because she wasn't wearing her seat belt at the back. She felt a sharp paint on her forehead after the bang and she cursed angrily, "Damn it! Do you know how to drive?" "Miss, I'm sorry! There was a car accident! Are you okay?" "How can I be alright? My forehead hurts so much!" Evelyn shouted before she came to her senses. The bodyguard said that there was a car accident and she could vaguely make out a person lying on the ground. She didn't dare to be arrogant anymore. "Why don't you go down and see what's going on?" The bodyguards and the driver immediately opened the door to check out the situation. Azalea looked extremely dishevelled as she lay on the ground. The wheels of the car were directly on her leg and she was unconscious. The bodyguards immediately called an ambulance and the police. Evelyn didn't expect such a thing to happen when she came to see Angel, so
Meanwhile, Francis and Frederick hurried over to the hospital. Francis immediately asked when he saw the bodyguards, "What did the doctor say?" "She has a severe fracture and she lost a lot of blood as well. They're trying to rescue her now." Francis asked again, "Is her life in danger? How is her child?" "Her child should be fine since she just injured her leg. Logically speaking, her life shouldn't be in danger." Francis was relieved when he heard this. Then, he asked again when he didn't see Evelyn after he looked around, "Where's Evelyn?" "Miss said that she has something to do." "She's being ridiculous. What is she doing there at night?" Francis asked with a frown. "She wanted to meet someone. She didn't say who it was, so we don't know either." Francis was upset after he heard this. Evelyn didn't come to the hospital to check on the person she hit and she even had the mood to meet up with someone else. What would the public say if w
Azalea's operation had been going on for three hours by the time Michael rushed to the hospital. Francis paced back and forth at the door with his hands clasped behind his back anxiously. He was walking so fast that he almost bumped into Michael. Michael reached out to hold Francis, who let out a sigh of relief when he looked up. "Michael, you're finally here!" "Something happened on the way. Mr. Gurney, how's Azalea's situation now?" "They said that she's bleeding profusely, so they sent a lot of blood in."
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
