After Evelyn was driven away, she went back to the mansion angrily. Frederick found it strange that she came back alone. "Miss, why did you come back alone? Where is Mr. Gurney?" "I have something to attend to, so I came back. Grandpa is still there." Evelyn returned to her room unhappily and threw her purse onto the bed. She then sat down on the sofa angrily. Francis's call came. "Where have you been?" "I didn't feel well, so I came home first!" Evelyn was afraid that Francis would find out that she was driven away because she had provoked Valeria. So she could only lie. "You are so troublesome. Weren't you fine when we came?" Francis was unhappy. He had taken a liking to a fine young man at the party and wanted Evelyn to meet him. Yet Evelyn had disappointed him. "It's not that I want to be sick. Grandpa, I have a headache, and I feel sick all over. Maybe I caught a cold. I'll take some medicine and rest first." After Evelyn fou
After Angel had drafted her words, she called Deborah's number. However, Deborah didn't answer the call. After calling her a few times with no answer, Angel then called Callum instead. This time, the call was connected. Callum's voice was very cold. "Who is it?" "Dad! It's me, it's Angel!" Angel's voice sounded soft and pitiful. "It's you? Why are you calling me?" Callum asked coldly. "I... Dad... I gave birth prematurely!" Angel's voice was choked with sobs. After that, she waited for Callum to answer. However, Callum didn't respond to her at all. Instead, she heard the sounds of him flipping through documents. It was apparent that Callum was uninterested in what she was saying. Angel was a little scared. It seemed to be a mistake to call Callum. She should have continued calling Deborah since she was a woman and would sympathize with others easily. Although she regretted it, she couldn't change it anymore and could only continue. "I was
After saying that, Helen hung up the phone. Paisley was stunned for a few seconds before she jumped up in joy. "This is great! The heavens are just!" Danya was shocked by Paisley. "Miss, what happened?" "The Clark family doesn't acknowledge Angel's child. According to Helen, Angel's child has nothing to do with the Clark family." "Really? How is that possible? Whose child could it be if not Richard's?" Danya was also shocked. "I don't know! I think Richard must have plotted against Angel after knowing her goals!" "That's great if that's the case! Angel, that d*mned wench has treated you so despicably. Her retribution has come!" Danya was also delighted. The two of them celebrated for a while before Danya asked Paisley, "Miss, how are you going to tell Ornard about this? Are you going to tell him the truth?" "Of course not! I'm still not sure that my theory is correct. Even if I guessed it correctly, I still wouldn't tell that b*stard Ornard!"
Veronica looked surprised after seeing the message. She immediately got up and went out of Ornard's ward to the bathroom. After closing the door, Veronica looked at the text message carefully several times again and couldn't help laughing. She quickly replied, "If that child is not Richard's, then who?" "I don't know, but I'm sure it isn't Richard's child. Ms. Laban, you must be super happy to hear this, right?" Of course, Veronica was very happy. The child that Angel gave birth to was not Richard's, and she had lost the ability to get pregnant as well. At this point, she was already useless. This was all karma. Ornard tried to kill her, but now his daughter was facing the consequences. If Ornard knew that Angel's child was not Richard's, he would be furious, right? Veronica couldn't wait to tell Ornard the news, but she also knew that it was not the time for her to expose the secret yet. She put away her phone and returned to Ornard's ward f
Hearing that Angel had been stabbed, Paisley knew that it was Veronica who was behind this, so she had no choice but to take Danya to check it out. Madelyn and Gurmisran told Paisley about Angel. Of course, Paisley was happy. She said dryly, "How could such a thing happen? It's so unfortunate. Her child is still so young! I hope she's fine." Madelyn and Gurmisran each looked at each other. Both of them could see that Paisley had no sympathy for Angel at all. They stood outside and waited for a few hours. When the operation was over, the doctor came out and told them that Angel was temporarily fine, but the situation was not very optimistic. She had to be observed in the ICU for a period of time. Hearing that Angel was not dead, those standing outside were very disappointed. They did not stay and went home separately. It was only in the evening that William heard that something had happened to Angel. Silas told him, "There are knife wounds all over
Abbie was covered up and taken back to the manor by Leonard. When she returned to her own room, she took off her veil and mask. Leonard followed in with a cup of yogurt in his hand. "Here." "Thank you!" Abbie accepted the yogurt and began to eat without hesitation. Leonard sat down beside her. "Someone was following us when we were discharged." "Who is it?" Abbie immediately asked. "I don't know the specific situation yet, but I guess it should be William's men." "Who is William?" Abbie asked. "William... he's your best friend, Valeria's husband." "I don't have any impression of this person, so why did he arrange for his men to follow us?" Abbie asked blankly. "William doesn't get along well with me. His target is me, not you. Anyway, William is hard to deal with, and it's not easy to get rid of him. I think... it's hard to hide your identity anymore. Why don't we go back openly?" Was he testing her? Abbie shook her head, and
The doctor's words shocked Ornard to his core. He opened his mouth wide and looked at the doctor. After a while, he asked in a dry voice, "Can I... still be saved in this situation?" The doctor shook his head. "It's been too long. According to the concentration in your blood, it's unlikely!" So he had already lost the ability to give birth to children? So the reason why Aurora could not get pregnant was because of him? Ornard was panting heavily and his hands were trembling. This bad news was too much for Ornard! He could no longer have his own child. He had two children; a daughter and a son. His son had was like a zombie lying in the hospital. While his daughter could not give birth anymore and was disfigured. He had always thought that it would be easy for him to have another son, but now everything had become impossible. Who on earth had treated him so viciously? During this period of time, he had always either been at home, at the company
"What did you say?" Ornard's eyes widened. His son's incident had shocked him to the extreme. Veronica had a vicious smile on her face. "You're very surprised, right? Let me tell you, after I knew that you have a child with that b*tch Aurora, I always wanted him to die. I pretended to be ignorant and allowed you to be so arrogant in front of me. Then I gave you a big gift. I was so happy to see you and that b*tch so heartbroken! By the way, Angel is hurt because of me too. I originally wanted her to die, but they didn't do it well. But Angel should be no different from a dead girl now, right?" Veronica laughed wildly and said, "Ornard! You betrayed me and now both of your illegitimate children ended up this way! Is there anything you wanna say to me? Oh, don't you give me that look! It's your own karma!" "You... you... I'll kill you!" Ornard threw himself at Veronica angrily. Veronica didn't take Ornard seriously at all. Seeing Ornard rushing over, she leaned 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
