Soon, William's car arrived in front of the mansion and he took the lead inside while Bobby trailed closely behind him. Inside, Hayden was furious about the news and was sitting on the sofa in the living room with a sullen expression on his face. Lucas and the servants were standing beside the sofa and they were trembling slightly in fear. Hayden turned towards the door with a dark expression when a servant came to tell him about William's arrival. He was so furious that he threw the ashtray that was on the coffee table towards William as soon as he entered. Hayden had gone mad indeed, but he was not stupid as he instantly knew who was behind that forced divorce between Savannah and Archer. It was definitely not Archer! Although Archer was opportunistic and smart when it comes to business, he would never plot against others like this. This must have been William's plan all along! He framed Savannah so that he could marry Valeria in the future without anyth
William's words made Savannah blush furiously and she tried to hide the marks on her neck frantically. However, her actions only made it more conspicuous. Hayden's face took on a ghastly expression and even Charles was extremely embarrassed. A cold glint flashed across William's eyes when he looked at this vicious woman. How could she be so shameless and evil-hearted? She was still trying to frame the others when she was in the wrong! She didn't deserve any sympathy and William had no intention of saving her dignity today. Not only did he want to disgrace her, but he also wanted to show Hayden her true colors. "How could you shamelessly gang up with Paxton and Julie to frame Natalie? Natalie has always been aware of it. She knew how wicked and shameless you were, but she chose to avoid trouble. She even faked her death, hoping that could end the feud between you and her. But what have you done? You sent killers to murder Valeria and the Saunders family knew that you w
His words made Hayden feel suffocated. "How dare you complain? If your mother knows what you have done, she won't stand up for you too! It's all because of you! If it weren't for you, why would the Saunders family treat Savannah like this?" William retorted, "She deserves it! Who's to blame if she does something wrong? Besides, I haven't gotten even with her for what she has done to Mum, I'm already kind enough to her!" "You brat, stop blabbering. Just show me the proof! There's no point if you don't have the evidence," Hayden roared. When Auntie saw that Hayden and William were still quarrelling, she had no choice but to come over and smooth things over. "Sir, your bird's nest soup is ready. It's getting late, and don't be angry with William anymore. Please eat something!" Hayden had been starving since the farce began. Then, he got up angrily and went to the dining hall with William following closely behind him. "You're having bird's nest soup? I haven't
The next morning, Valeria went to the hospital to visit Natalie. At that moment, Archer was also in the ward and he was feeding Natalie some soup. After twenty years of separation, they were back together again. There was nothing wrong with Natalie's health, but Archer still ordered some bird's nest soup and insisted on feeding her. When Valeria entered the ward, she saw such a sweet and warm scene. She and William often got along sweetly, so she did not feel embarrassed at all when she saw Archer and Natalie's interactions. However, Natalie saw her and quickly pushed Archer's hand away with a blushed face. "Valeria is here!" "Yes, mom. I brought some bird's nest soup for you, but I didn't expect that Dad had also prepared the same thing for you." Archer was sitting with his back to the door, and he only realized that Valeria had come when he heard her. Then, he immediately blushed furiously as he felt a little embarrassed. "Why are you here so
Talitha didn't care about Gavin. "Are you writing calligraphy, grandpa? Do you want me to moisten the ink for you?" "No need!" Gavin frowned and went outside. Talitha followed Gavin and asked various questions fawningly. However, Gavin was indifferent as he said, "I'm going to the garden now, so you can go back first." Talitha was able to sense that Gavin was impatient with her, so she decided to stop following him. Initially, she was following behind Archer. However, she could not see Archer when she went to the living room. Hence, she assumed that Archer had gone to the study room to look for Gavin, so she decided to go there. She deliberately slowed down her pace to eavesdrop when she walked nearby the door, but she did not expect to hear such news. Talitha took her phone and texted her mother when Gavin went to the garden. "Mom, Savannah's case has been leaked and William has tested the bird's nest for poison. Initially, Hayden couldn't
William was surprised to hear that. "So, is my father suspicious of Savannah? If that's the case, I don't think I have to worry about it anymore." "That's right. You don't have to worry much about it." Marcus also felt that this was a good sign. William pondered for a moment. "It is a rare piece of good news. You'd better send someone to follow him to prevent anyone from causing trouble, and we need to make sure that the results are real as well." "Okay, I'll ask someone to keep an eye on him," Marcus agreed. William hung up the phone and squinted his eyes with a smile. "Hayden is beginning to suspect Savannah now, and I know he wouldn't be easily fooled by others." Valeria was glad to hear the news. "That's great! When I went to see my mother this morning, I asked my father to discuss with my grandpa on how to persuade your father. Now it seems like your father has understood the situation, so we don't need to worry about it anymore." "That's rig
Paisley laughed heartily and said, "Since Savannah has no value now, it doesn't matter if we're cruel to her anymore. Natalie and your brother will be attending the gathering, and I guess they would attract a lot of attention. Not only that, I'm sure that Savannah will definitely go to the party because of your brother. If Savannah died at the party due to an accident..." Raelyn gasped as Paisley was indeed a spiteful bit*h! She understood what Paisley meant. However, if Paisley forced Savannah to death, it would mean that she would be Paisley's mercy. She could not make such a mistake, so she forced a smile and said, "This matter should be difficult, right?" Paisley gave a contemptuous laugh as she knew that Raelyn might be worried that she would fall into a trap. "Though it might be hard for you, it should be just a piece of cake since there are another two days to prepare. I can lend you a hand if you don't have enough manpower." Paisley offer
Both of them went to the hanging garden in the VIP ward and sat down. Then, Archer looked at William and said, "Do you want to talk about your father? Valeria told me about it today and I have already discussed it with my father. He is planning to straighten things out with your father soon." William shook his head and said, "No. I'll take care of it myself. Actually, I would like to ask you about Lucian. What was the reason behind her scheming against Natalie?" "To be honest, I still can't understand what she's up to. Lucian is a person with some talent and has always been pretentious. She used to be very good to Natalie and would do anything, but she was not the same with me and was always very hostile." Archer answered. "Hostile? Did you do anything that made her angry at you?" William asked. "No, I have no relations with her at all. If it wasn't for my romantic relationship with Natalie, I would not have known her at all
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
