Ronald used the recording as his trump card, and the police found the recording in the mailbox he provided. The recording was very clear. Ronald angrily questioned Julie for her reason behind poisoning Natalie's medicine while she cried and explained that it was an impulsive decision. She lost her mind because she was too in love with Ronald. The content of the recording completely corresponded to his story. However, Valeria still didn't believe that Ronald was oblivious about it the whole time. He must have known Julie's plan to poison Natalie since the beginning, but he did not stop her and allowed her to do all this. After all, if Natalie was dead, he could inherit everything related to the company. Ronald had been managing the company for so many years, and he was a cunning man. He was now at the lowest point of his life, so he probably wanted to put all the blame on Julie. Therefore, Valeria firmly believed that he must have helped to fulfill Julie'
Although Paxton was flustered by the situation, he was not afraid. He and Julie plotted against Natalie to help with his master's plans. He had done so many things for his boss out of loyalty, so he believed that she would not give up on him. Anyway, Natalie was dead, and the evidence of his involvement had been destroyed. Neither he nor Julie would mention a word about it, so the police couldn't do anything to him. As long as he kept his mouth shut, his boss would save him. After he made up his mind, he kept silent at all cost. No matter how the interrogator asked him, he would not confess. Apart from Ronald's accusation of Paxton and Julie being the ones behind Natalie's murder, the police did not have any other evidence, so the interrogation was indeed a problem. His accomplice, Julie, was already in a miserable state. She had a miscarriage after Ronald hit her in the stomach with a baseball bat, and her face and lower body were badly burned with a stee
Ronald seemed stunned by his own actions and stood in place for a while before going down to check on Natalie. She was lying on the ground motionlessly, and he put his finger under her nose to check if she was still breathing. Then, he hesitated for 15 minutes before picking up his phone to call an ambulance. Seeing that he did not call the police immediately, tears welled up in Valeria's eyes. She knew what happened from then on. When Natalie was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment, she'd asked Ronald about it. However, he said that Natalie fell down the stairs because of her sudden illness, and she was currently unconscious. Natalie was in a coma even after being sent to the hospital. The next morning, she passed away. Valeria had always thought that her mother's cause of death was from falling from the stairs. After watching the footage, she realized the truth was far from her expectations. Natalie was pushed down the stairs by Ronald. I
Ronald was dripping with cold sweat as he glanced at William and Valeria from time to time. He guessed that William had not told Valeria that they were not biologically related. If he did, Valeria would not behave like this right now. Since he did not tell her yet, he had a chance. Maybe he could negotiate with William about it. As he thought about it, he regained his hope. "I can tell you the truth, but William is the only one I can tell!" "Why?" Valeria said angrily, "I also want to know the truth!" "I can only tell William! If you agree to this, I will tell you the truth, if not, I will keep my mouth shut. The worst-case scenario is for me to go to jail. Try me!" Ronald acted tough. William knew what he meant. He also did not want to reveal too much in front of Valeria. After all, this case was related to many other problems, so it would be best if Valeria did not know about it. He thought about it and agreed to Ronald's request. "Bobby,
William asked such a direct question, and Ronald was taken by surprise. He wiped the sweat from his head. "I don't know who else schemed against Natalie, but I'm guessing that Savannah has more incentive to do so. Your father should have been aware of it as well, and Gavin probably participated too." William looked at him expressionlessly and said, "Is that so? Tell me about the situation at that time." Ronald began to tell the story, "In the past, Natalie and Archer were deeply in love. Your eldest sister, Savannah, also liked him, but he didn't like her back. Gavin and your father wanted them to marry, but Archer never agreed and always wanted to be with Natalie. In order to resist the pressure from the Saunders and Howard family, they left for the capital." "Oh? That happened?" William did not know about the fact that they went to the capital. After all, he had not been born when Archer and Natalie fell in love with each other. "After they left, Savanna
The news made William very happy, and he immediately brought Valeria over. In the beginning, Paxton's man tried to play it cool, but he was forced to tell the truth after getting beaten up. He said that Paxton was the one who asked him to buy the poison, but he didn't know about Paxton's intentions with it. After he explained his side of the story, it was proven that Paxton was a worthy suspect because he bought the poison. With the evidence, the police immediately continued to interrogate him. Of course, he wouldn't admit it. He said that he bought the poison to deal with some cockroaches at home as they had been swarming his house through the sewer. The police asked him why he didn't buy drugs that were specifically for cockroaches. Then, he hesitated and said that he thought the poison was more powerful. In the end, he was still unwilling to admit his true intentions. William was furious and arranged for people to start messing with Paxton. Paxton kne
After comforting Valeria, Lamont immediately called Archer. However, Archer had a company meeting, so his phone was turned off. Lamont called him several times, but he did not pick up. He guessed that he must be in a meeting, but he could not wait any longer, so he called Archer's assistant. After recognizing Lamont's voice, the assistant did not dawdle and went to the conference room to look for Archer. Archer stopped the meeting halfway and returned to his office. He immediately called Lamont and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry to contact me? Did something urgent happen?" "It's an extremely urgent matter. Mr. Saunders, Natalie did not die a natural death. She was killed by Ronald, Julie, and Paxton." Then, Archer let out a startled cry. After a while, he finally asked, "Are you sure?" "They found the evidence of Paxton buying the poison, but he doesn't want to admit it. I suspect that not only is Paxton related to this, but Savannah too!"
Due to Paxton's injuries, the interrogation had to be called off, so William took Valeria home. It was already eight o'clock at night, and they hadn't had a good rest since midnight, so they were very tired. While worrying for Valeria, he poured her a glass of milk and said, "Have a glass of milk first. Don't worry, I'll find a way to make Paxton confess!" "William, I know you've always been helping me, but this time... you don't have to if it puts you in a difficult position!" She took the milk and placed it on the tea table. "I'm not in a difficult position!" "I know you are! Paxton is your sister's servant, and your sister is the wife of the Saunders family. The Saunders family will definitely help your sister, and your father will not stand by. There's so much pressure from all sides... I don't want to make it difficult for you!" "I said it's not difficult for me!" He picked up the milk again and pressed it against her mouth. "Be good and listen
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
