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
They were still in the café of the hotel that was owned by the Anthony family. Raelyn was wrapped in a black coat as she rushed into the private room with a mask covering her face. Just then, she saw Paisley leaning against the soft leather sofa in a comfortable position. She pulled down her mask and said, "I'm late!" Upon seeing Raelyn, Paisley nodded with a smile. "No, I was early instead. Please have a seat, Mrs. Saunders!" Raelyn took off her coat and put it away. Then, a waiter came in to deliver coffee before he closed the door and went out. Raelyn said with a grateful face, "Thank you very much for you and Mr. Anthony's assistance." "It's nothing, it's just a piece of cake. My brother just called me and told me that everything has been taken care of. Right now, Hayden will definitely think that William is scheming against Savannah for Valeria's sake. He would no longer believe William." "That's good to hear!" Raelyn let out a sigh of relief. "Both y
Marcus had been with William for a long time and they were always in the same boat. Marcus asked in surprise, "They want to kill Savannah just so that they can frame you?" "There's such a possibility, but there's another agenda apart from trying to throw me under the bus. They're going to create a scene at the party, which is going to happen the day after tomorrow," William slowly replied. "What? Are they planning for a murder at the party? Why don't we tighten our security measures to avoid such incident from happening?" William shook his head. "A murder may not happen, and she may have planned to achieve her ultimate goal at the party instead. You know that Savannah is greatly obsessed with my father-in-law. Since she was able to establish a fake pregnancy after she acted drunk, and steal someone else's child in order to marry my father-in-law, she might have planned a bigger scheme in this upcoming party. The only thing I can think of right now is a suicide!"
After hanging up, William glanced at Valeria and said sarcastically, "Look at you, when have you become so bad-tempered? You're even shouting at your dad now? I can't help but wonder if you will do the same to my dad as well in the future. Where is your sense of respect, Valeria?" "It's not like that William, I'm just too angry. It's just so frustrating that every time they had to cause us trouble." Valeria didn't deny, "I wouldn't dare shout at your dad, though. After all, he looks menacing, and I'm afraid he'll make me pay if I do." "What did you just say? Can you repeat it?" William smirked at Valeria. At this, Valeria took a step back and stuck out her tongue, "Oops! My bad. I should call him our dad, and I'll definitely keep that in mind now. It was just a slip of the tongue. I swear, it won't happen again!" Then, William got up and strode to the bathroom, not forgetting to nag at Valeria along the way, "Fine, I'll let you off this time, but if you make the
Abbie finally stopped after she was pulled away by Raymond and a group of people. Talitha, who was beaten, was injured seriously to the extent that blood was all over her face. She was then sent to a hospital for treatment hurriedly. Her pretty face was no longer recognizable, with big black bruises around her eyes and a swollen face. Not only that, but her nose and mouth were broken too, and they were bleeding profusely. She looked utterly terrible! After Raymond had sent Talitha to the hospital, he did not dare call Raelyn to inform her about what happened. Raelyn was very protective of the people who were close to her, so she would definitely seek revenge on Abbie if she were to see Talitha's miserable appearance. By then, it would make matters worse, so it was better to tell Archer and Gavin about this first. As he though about this, Raymond called Archer and Gavin to inform them about what happened. When Archer and Gavin heard about the news, the both of them we
Savannah's eyes widened as she looked at Raelyn. "Using death to clear my name? Are you kidding me?" "I'm not asking you to die. All you need to do is record a video and say that William schemed against you and Ronald, along with my brother and dad in order to be with Valeria. And that they forced you to leave the Saunders family. Then, William continued to make things difficult for you by accusing you of killing his mom. In order to do so, he secretly tweaked the test results of the supplements to prove you guilty. You were framed and having to serve Ronald everyday was a living hell. So, you can only die to prove your innocence." Raelyn took a deep breath before she continued, "After you record the video, you'll send it to your dad. He would definitely not ignore it when he knows that you're going to commit suicide, so, he'll definitely come looking for you. You would have to prepare the drug beforehand and wait for his arrival. Then, you'll take the drug in front of him,
When Valeria and William arrived at the hospital, Richard had just reached there too. Then, the three of them went to the treatment room together. Abbie had told Valeria that she wasn't injured, but in fact, besides some scratches on her arms and neck, a few of her fingernails were broken too. Inside, the doctor had just applied for medicine and bandaged her injuries when Richard came in. As soon as Abbie saw him, she let out a pitiful cry. Richard looked upset as he said, "What are you? An animal? How could you start a fight with someone just like that? Don't you feel embarrassed?" Abbie was aggrieved as she heard this. "I didn't want to, but she was bad-mouthing me back then! She told a woman that I'm ugly and that I had a bad temper. If that was it, I would have let it slide. But no! She even said that I had gone around seducing every man I met when I was abroad. I couldn't just let her say those things about me, can I?" "What? How dare she say that? Yo
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
