Evelyn thought she had threatened him successfully, but seeing that the man in front of her didn't care, she wasn't that confident all of a sudden. Of course, she didn't dare tell Valeria now. If she told her, Valeria and William might fight about it, but he would never have anything to do with her no matter whether they would get a divorce or not. Besides, if she offended him, it would be terrible if he wanted to harm her. At the thought of this, Evelyn realized that what she had on him was not useful at all as she didn't dare to offend William. Evelyn immediately softened her tone and said, "I was just joking with you. I like you a lot. How could I harm you?" However, Leonard said coldly, "It isn't funny." "Are you seriously mad right now? I was just kidding! Are you that petty?" Evelyn tried to coax Leonard sweetly, but he pushed her away. "I'm not kidding with you! Today is the last time we meet. I won't see you again in the future." "Why? We were fine
Michael and Francis looked calm as they had already predicted Wayne's reaction. An ambulance had already been waiting downstairs for some time. What Michael wanted was never Wayne's death, but for him to be alive to witness his business empire being eroded little by little and his painstaking efforts going to waste. The ambulance wailed as it sent Wayne to the hospital. The meeting of the board of directors of the Davis family had come to an end because Wayne had fainted. When Wayne was saved in the hospital, the news that the meeting of the board of directors of the Davis family could not take place on time began to brew. The video and photos of Wayne being sent to the hospital were all over the Internet, and there were all kinds of gossip. Most of the news was about Michael giving Azalea's biological father, Francis, the shares under his name in order to marry Azalea and show his loyalty. The Davis family's shares in Michael's hands were quite an a
Abbie dialed Leonard's number. "I saw the news about Michael and Azalea. Did Michael really give all of his Davis family shares to Francis as Azalea's betrothal gift?" Leonard had deliberately arranged for someone to say such things in front of Abbie and waited for something to happen to her, but he didn't expect that Abbie would call him and ask. He immediately replied, "Yes, Michael gave his shares to Francis. I don't know if it's a betrothal gift. Wayne fainted and was hospitalized because of Michael's behavior. He just woke up not long ago." "How is this possible? That much money..." Abbie truly found this unbelievable. No matter how much Michael loved Azalea, he wouldn't give that much money to Francis as a betrothal gift, would he? "Abbie, to tell you the truth, I'm also very surprised to hear this. Not only you and I, but I don't think anyone would have thought that Michael would do this either. That much money, I don't think even William, who is filthy r
Abbie called Leonard in front of the butler, which made the latter surprised to receive her call as soon as he woke up. "Abbie, what's the matter?" "I have something very important to tell you. I gave birth earlier than my due date!" "What?" Leonard was extremely shocked. Abbie repeated, "I gave birth ahead of time. The child is very healthy, and I'm fine as well." "Why would you suddenly give birth? What happened?" Leonard's intuition told him that this was not a simple matter, but he controlled his anger and asked Abbie. "I accidentally fell down, so my child had to be born early..." "B*stards! Weren't they supposed to take care of you?" Leonard gnashed his teeth. "It's my fault. It has nothing to do with the housekeeper and bodyguards. My child and I are fine, so please don't blame them. I'm begging you, okay?" Leonard wanted to slaughter the butler and bodyguards. If they called him as soon as something happened to Abbie, he would nev
Meadow felt a chill in her heart. "Michael, don't joke around! I'm very anxious now. You need to help me... I'm begging you!" "What did you do when I asked you to bless my relationship with Abbie?" Michael asked with a sneer. "Back then, I... I wasn't in the right mind! Michael, I regret what I did back then. If I had known that Azalea was such a person, I wouldn't have done that even if my life was at stake!" "Are you regretting it? It's a pity that the past can't be changed. Besides, you probably don't feel any regret because people like you are heartless and vicious. I don't believe that you'll feel any remorse." "Michael, I really regret it! I really..." "Alright, you can stop pretending! I won't pity your misery, and I will never sympathize with you!" Michael paused for a moment. "I'm going to hang up now! Congratulations on being driven out of the Davis family!" When Michael hung up after he finished speaking, Meadow looked at Stanty and said,
The spy that had been sent out by Leonard's assistant had sent a report about what happened in the afternoon. Michael didn't give out his shares for free. Instead, he took a deal from Francis in exchange for ownership over a company with the same market value as shares. Leonard was shocked when he heard this. "Does this mean that Michael wants to go solo?" The assistant nodded. "That's very likely! Michael is very smart and talented, so his chances of success are very high." "If that's the case, then this is good news." Leonard thought of Abbie's child and a cold smile appeared on his face. "Isn't it a good thing for Abbie's child to be born?" "That's right, we would've raised Michael's child by the time he establishes his own company." The assistant understood what Leonard meant and said with a smile, "The child will be the heir if anything happens to Michael." Leonard frowned. "But isn't Azalea still pregnant with Michael's child? That child would
Michael was looking at William as he hung up the phone. "Are you still investigating Leonard?" "That's right! Leonard's girlfriend had an accident and she lost her child." William didn't hide it from Michael. "But it's strange that he didn't react to it at all." "What's so strange about it? How can someone like Leonard be tied down by a woman? Even if that happened, that woman must be the daughter of a rich and powerful family who can give him some benefits. You still haven't found out the identity of the woman, so it's obvious that it must be kept a secret. Don't spend too much time investigating that woman. You should focus on Leonard instead because he's probably going to contact Francis now." "Did Franics tell you about his contact with Leonard?" William asked. "I guessed it. Anyway, you have to be careful because Francis and Leonard aren't good people. If they join forces, you'll face endless troubles in the future." William smiled. "I'm not worried a
Jacelyn and Bobby looked at each other and asked, "Is this true?" "It's hard to say, but I'll tell William about it!" Bobby immediately went to find William and showed him Evelyn's message. "Sir, is Evelyn deliberately making up a lie or is it true?" William thought for a moment after he read the message and said, "It should be true." "Who would want to harm Michael?" "Evelyn has no contacts here, so it's impossible for her to know who wants to hurt Michael. The only people who aren't on guard against Evelyn are from the Gurney family, so I guess Francis should be the person who wants to deal with Michael." Bobby felt that it made sense after listening to William's analysis. "What kind of vicious means did Evelyn mean? Since Azalea is pregnant with Michael's child, could it be that Francis wants to kill Michael?" "This isn't completely impossible, but I don't think Francis would take Michael's life. He would probably use another method."
