The sound of the door being pushed open awakened the sleeping servant. She sat up and saw Leonard and his assistant, who had suddenly appeared in the ward, followed by a surprised expression on her face. "Mr. Floyd, you're back!" Leonard nodded. "How is she?" "She woke up once for some time and looked very painful. The doctor brought her for an examination but found nothing, so they could only continue to observe from here." "Is that so? Did she wake up again after that?" Leonard looked at Abbie, who was lying on the bed with her eyes closed. The servant shook her head. "No, she's been in a coma since." Leonard paused before walking to the bedside, where Abbie laid still with her eyes closed on the bed. Leonard glanced at her pale face and reached out to touch it gently. As if she had been licked by a poisonous snake, Abbie felt her hairs stand on end. Fortunately, Leonard's hand didn't linger on her face for long as he quickly removed it.
Seeing this, Gurmisran was frightened and immediately raised his voice to call for Madelyn. Madelyn had already fallen asleep, but when she heard Gurmisran's cry, she immediately put on her clothes and came over to check. Seeing Angel like this, she was shocked too. "I told you to restrain yourself and not to mess around. You didn't listen to me. Look what you did!" "What's the use of complaining now? Hurry up and think of something!" Gurmisran was really anxious and he had no idea what to do. "Send her to the hospital! Now! I'll call an ambulance!" Madelyn dialed the emergency number and soon, the paramedics came to take Angel to the hospital. Gurmisran was frightened. If something was to happen to the baby in Angel's belly, William's plan would be ruined, and he would suffer for it. He called Silas with trembling hands. "Something happened to Angel. She was bleeding!" Silas was also surprised when he heard that. "How could this be? Did
At the hospital in America, Abbie woke up at 7:30 p.m. When she opened her eyes, Leonard was already in the ward. He was arranging some flowers beside the bed, and when he saw Abbie open her eyes, he immediately stopped what he was doing and looked at Abbie with soft eyes. "How do you feel? Does your head still hurt?" Abbie didn't say anything but just shook her head and pretended to look around blankly. She and Leonard were the only ones in the ward, and the servants and Leonard's assistant were nowhere to be seen. Through the ward's glass door, Abbie could see a tall and sturdy bodyguard standing guard by the door. Leonard was very wary of her as he had arranged for guards to watch over her even when she was unconscious. It was obvious that she was very important in Leonard's plan. As she thought about this, Abbie looked away and struggled to sit up. Leonard immediately reached out to help her up and put a cushion behind her. His voice was very soft and
William left the Howard family's mansion and asked Bobby to send him to Richard's company to meet him. On the way, Jaxon called. "William, Leonard went to the hospital yesterday at night in the States and stayed there until eight o'clock this morning. I went to the hospital in person to check on the situation. The patient lived in a very private ward, and there were bodyguards standing guard outside. No one could go near it except for the doctors and nurses. I talked to a nurse and got her to reveal some information. The patient is an American woman. She is young and beautiful, and also pregnant." "So it's Leonard's girlfriend who's sick? What kind of illness does she have?" William asked. "I think so. The nurse said that the woman had a headache and had no other symptoms. Because they couldn't find out what caused it, the doctor gave her a shot to stop the pain. The woman has been sleeping all this time. Just now, Leonard took his assistant to the hospita
Madelyn was startled by her scream while Angel struggled to sit up. She couldn't use much strength after her surgery, so she screamed in pain again. Seeing Angel's shocked, painful, and angry expression, Madelyn was overjoyed inside. That wicked b*tch! It's her turn to suffer, huh? She pretended to comfort Angel. "Miss, you just had surgery. You can't be worked up! Calm down!" How could Angel calm down? She continued to roar and Madelyn couldn't calm her nor did she want to. She had stayed in the ward and waited for Angel to wake up on purpose so that she could tell Angel that her uterus had been removed. She wanted to witness Angel's pain with her own eyes. Angel's reaction was just what she wanted. Anyway, it was not her who was in pain, so Angel could do whatever she wanted for all she cared. She should just rip her wound apart and suffer again, Madelyn thought viciously. Soon, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the ward as Gur
Bobby brought Jacqueline to the room on the left downstairs, where an old and thin woman lay. The old woman was paralyzed and couldn't move. She couldn't take care of herself and had to be helped by others. Jacqueline felt disgusted as she looked at the old woman. Bobby said softly, "This is my mother. You will be in charge of taking care of her from now on. Can you do it?" "I... I haven't taken care of anyone before. I'm afraid..." "You can learn. I'll get the people who took care of her to teach you!" Bobby interrupted Jacqueline directly. A middle-aged woman then came in and greeted Bobby politely. "This is Rosario Albion, and this is Jacqueline Penham." Bobby introduced them to each other. "Rosario, Ms. Penham will stay here from now on. She is new here and doesn't know many things. Please teach her so that she could get used to taking care of my mother as soon as possible." "Alright!" Rosario agreed. "The doctor said that she won't b
Valeria was dressed up splendidly as she greeted the guests with William hand in hand. She wore a fiery red gown that day. Not many people were able to pull off wearing red as they couldn't bring out the color's exquisiteness. But there weren't words to describe how Valeria looked besides she was pleasing to the eye. There was a heart-shaped diamond necklace around Valeria's neck, and the diamond was so big that people were all astounded by it. It shone brightly under the lights and accentuated Valeria's beauty. The guests were envious when they saw the two of them holding hands lovingly. Everyone came forward to congratulate Valeria and William, including Michael. When he came up and talked to William, Valeria's expression instantly became unhappy. However, today was a celebration in Santhos and Cade's name, so she couldn't behave rudely towards Michael in front of all the guests. She could only hold back her displeasure and reminded William. "Honey, we haven't
The photo was not a simple one. In the photo, William was naked as he hugged a woman and lay on a bed. He had an intoxicating expression. The woman's face was censored, but the red mole on her chest was quite obvious. A look of astonishment flashed across Valeria's face as she looked at the photo. She did not believe that William would do such a thing. With William's abilities, people couldn't take photos of him secretly, even if he did sleep with other women. But what about this photo? Who was the woman in the photo? Evelyn had been staring at Valeria ever since she showed her the photo. Valeria retracted her gaze from the photo and looked at Evelyn, who was wearing a low-cut dress today. The red mole on her chest was glaringly obvious. So the woman in the photo was Evelyn? Did Evelyn and William know each other? And had an intimate relationship? Valeria felt that it was impossible. If William had a relationship with Evelyn, would he send someone 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
