"Huh? What does this have to do with him?" Archer was stunned. "Raymond? Why did she choose that name? Can't you tell her intention?" Lucian asked. "I don't know what you're thinking, President Saunders. Didn't you say that you hated Savannah? So why did you choose a name for him that was the same as the child you were about to have with President Garcia? Don't you think you're being cruel to President Garcia? Don't you think it's disgusting?" Archer frowned and said, "That name has nothing to do with me. My father chose that name, and he was the one who registered it!" "Well, even if the name wasn't chosen to disgust President Garcia, don't you dislike the fact that he's Savannah's son? Savannah is so cruel and wicked, so how could her son be any different? Like mother like son, after all." Lucian sneered, "President Saunders, you don't plan to let him inherit everything, right? If you do, Savannah would be delighted even if she was already put to death."
Abbie didn't expect Michael to fall like that, and she did not know whether she should help him up. When William saw that Abbie was hesitant, he immediately pulled Valeria out of the room and closed the door behind him. When they were outside, Valeria was worried, "Would they be okay?" "Nothing will happen! What can he do when he's so drunk? Didn't you see how silly he was? We should have recorded a video of him." Valeria laughed when she heard him say that. "Honey, are we going back now?" "No, Richard will be suspicious if we do. Come on, I'll show you the beautiful scenery at the top floor." William said as he pulled her towards the lift and pressed the button. The elevator went up as Valeria nestled in his arms. "Honey, what's going on between Abbie and Michael anyway? Why didn't I know that she liked Michael?" "They had a very close and deep relationship when they were abroad." William said. "And when was that? Why didn't I know about it?"
When the door was kicked open, Abbie jumped in shock. Then, she turned to the door and saw Richard barge in. "Uh? Richard!" Once he entered the room and saw Michael laying on the sofa, he flew into a rage. It was just as he had imagined, Michael was trying to get together with Abbie! Richard was furious. "D*mn it, Michael! You are doomed now!" While cursing at him, he immediately went up to him and pulled him up, but Abbie quickly stopped him. "Bro, what are you doing?" Richard pushed Abbie aside and punched Michael on the face as hard as he could. Michael, who had had too much to drink and was already dizzy, vomited when Richard punched his abdomen. After clearing his stomach, he was almost sober. When he saw Richard in front of him, he widened his eyes in horror. Oh no! Richard was covered in vomit and this made his anger fuel. He punched him several more times until Abbie hugged him from behind to stop him. "Richard, what are you doing? Why
William returned to the room while laughing. "Get up! Stop acting!" Michael struggled to get up as he felt his head pound and his whole body ache. "D*mn it! That b*stard Richard, how dare he hit me? I'll make him pay!" "Save it. Do you want to lose Abbie? If you'd dared do anything to Richard, Abbie would never forgive you." "Sh*t! So I should just suck it up? I didn't even do anything! If I had known that this would happen, I should've just did what I wanted to Abbie." Michael was exasperated. William laughed at him mockingly. "If you had dared to, you would have already lost your head. You should just go home and tend to those wounds of yours right now. You can think about what to do after that." Then, Marcus called for someone to bring Michael to a hotel room to rest. Meanwhile, William put his arms around Valeria and grinned. "Honey, why don't we just stay in the Wolf Group in the future. What do you think?" "Okay! I have always wanted to stay in
William thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't think of anything related to the identity of the mysterious woman. Then, he picked his phone up and called Marcus. "There's something I need your help with. Look for the footages of all the surveillance cameras outside Lucian's house. I'm looking for a car and a woman." After hanging up, William threw the cigarette butt away and went back to his bedroom. He was certain that he would be able to find out who this mysterious woman was in only a day's time. Meanwhile, in Mason's apartment, smoke filled the air as Mason lit his cigarettes one after another. Elizabeth, who was sitting opposite from him, was getting impatient. "Mason, you've been like this for an hour. Just tell me what you're thinking!" "Aunt, I think we should take it slow first." "You made me wait here for a few hours and all you give me is this for an answer?" Elizabeth was infuriated. "Mason, listen to me once, alright? We only
After Savannah had said her piece, she stood up and left while Elizabeth was angered beyond speech. She stomped upstairs and saw that Charles was not home. She had wanted to barge into Ashley's room and beat her up so badly. But her mind was telling her not to. After all, she didn't know what Savannah and Ashley were plotting yet. But she knew that if she ruined Savannah's and Charles' plan, she would be dead instantly. Once she returned to her bedroom, she closed the door and texted Mason. "Savannah has brought Ashley over to stay in my house and she said that she was now her assistant. I don't know what those two b*tches are plotting." Mason was shocked when he saw the message from Elizabeth, "Huh, is it true? Ashley is staying in your house?" "Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you? I was so pissed just now. Savannah has no respect for me at all. And that b*tch Ashley was acting like she was way better than me. I really hate them. Hurry up and con
The old man was all smiles and was looking at Valeria kindly. "Ladies, there aren't any tables left. Can I join you guys?" Seeing that the old man was aging and that he came by himself, Valeria nodded her head. "Sure!" She moved to the side and let the old man, who smiled happily to sit next to her. Seeing that she was about to order, he smiled and said, "I'm old, and I can't see the words on the menu clearly. Could you help me order, miss?" "Sure. Sir, what would you like to eat?" Valeria was very courteous to him as she saw how friendly and kind he was. "I don't know what to eat. Why don't you order, and I'll treat you and your friend." "Oh... No, that's okay. I shall treat you!" Since they had let him sit at their table, and that he was a friendly old man, she did not fuss over it. "Young lady, you're so kind. It's the first time I've seen such a kind and lovely girl in my life!" The longer Gavin looked at Valeria, the more he grew to like h
As William was thinking of a plan to stop Gavin, Savannah had also found out that Gavin met Valeria today. Ever since Savannah found out that Valeria was Archer's daughter, she quickly arranged for someone to follow Valeria around. When she heard that Gavin had lunch with her, she was infuriated. She threw the teacup in her hand and shouted furiously, "D*mn it! Who does that old man think he is! Am I invisible to him? How could he go look for that brat? Is he planning on bringing her into the family?" Seeing how enraged Savannah was, Charles shook his head. "There's no use being angry about this. Just think of something quickly. It seems like Gavin already knows about Valeria's true identity now. If that's the case, then Archer will know about this soon too. If you don't think of idea fast, things will become ugly then." "What should we do? Kill that b*tch? Only by getting rid of her, we can live in peace!" Savannah was enraged, and the idea of murdering s
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
