A cold smile appeared on William's face. Just as he had expected, Ashley was going to die just like that.

Seeing that he did not speak, Marcus continued, "According to the forensics analysis, her predicted time of death was on the afternoon of the day she escaped."

"So she dug her own grave," William said as he put down his cotton swab. "What's the Anthony family doing?"

"Hardy wanted to take advantage of the situation, but he stopped. Andrew has been in the company these days, and the negative impact on the Howard Group has subsided. So, nothing else will happen in the future."

As a matter of fact, Hardy was definitely involved in the spreading of negative news regarding the Howard family. If it wasn't for him, the impact wouldn't have been so great, and the Howard family's stock value wouldn't have dropped so much.

William's gaze was cold and sinister as he sneered. "Mr. Anthony really wants a piece of the pie, doesn't he? Well, we'll have to see if he e

    William did not say anything and only looked at Hayden silently. Hayden continued, "After Savannah died, I've been thinking about this for the past few days. How could she have killed your mother? If she's as smart as she is, she wouldn't have died like that. There must be some other reason for what happened back then. There's definitely someone else helping her." William remained silent, and Hayden took a deep breath. "After thinking about it for so many days, I finally understood. Raelyn is capable! Your mother died of poison, and I heard that Raelyn and Declan smuggled that specific poison into the country. They were the chief culprit! Your mother's death is definitely related to Raelyn and the Saunders family! She died in their hands. There is no doubt!" "Dad! Calm down!" William comforted him when he saw his agitated expression. "I can't calm down! William, I know that you like Valeria, and I know your feelings, but please, they killed your mother. Yo

    After William called to break up with Valeria, Hayden felt a little better. William fed him half a bowl of porridge before he lied down to rest. When he was lying down, he did not let William leave his side. He also didn't allow him to call or text on his phone in order to prevent him from secretly sending Valeria a message. Other than that, he also confiscated his phone. He asked Lucas and the maid to keep an eye on him to prevent him from leaving. William didn't know what to do, so he sat on the sofa while staring at Hayden with wide eyes. Hayden held William's phone and stared at him for a while before falling asleep.  The maid and Lucas witnessed the whole process and felt sorry for William. The maid lowered her voice and said, "Sir William, he is in poor health. Please bear with him a little longer. Talk to him about it when he's well." "Yes, I know." He nodded. "I will inform Miss Brown on behalf of you. I'll tell her not to think t

    Upon hearing his voice, William turned around with a smile. "Lucas, thank you for sending my wife to see me. Don't worry, I won't treat you shabbily!" "No, it's not like that..." William interrupted his explanation and said. "Don't worry. This will be a secret between the three of us. My dad will not find out about it. I don't break promises, and I've already arranged for your son to go to the Wolf Group. You can ask me if you have any other requests." Lucas was confused by his words, especially for the news of his son's transfer. "My son is going to the Wolf Group? Really?" "Of course it's true. Would I lie to you? When we reached an agreement, I had already instructed Marcus to do it." "Hubby, Lucas is helping us like this. You must not mistreat him." Valeria had been following William for so long and had become smart. She knew that Lucas had been tricked. William had to have his reasons. No matter what, she agreed with his words. "You know, when I

    Raelyn always knew that Natasya was smart, so she immediately asked, "What did you come up with?" "Of course it's a way to make William fall into our trap! Mom, let me tell you, it's actually really simple. As long as you can control Valeria, he will definitely take the bait." "I know that too! I also know that he will be easily baited if we can control Valeria, but she has a deep hatred for us, so we have no way to deal with her at all." Raelyn was at a dead end. Natasya, however, had a strange smile on her face. "Who said that we have no way? I already have one, but I don't know how to do it. Now that Paisley is so keen on it, it's better to leave it to her." "What on earth are you planning?" Raelyn looked at her suspiciously. "Don't worry, listen to me slowly. I'll tell you a piece of news first! Hayden has woken up." "I know that. Paisley told me just now." "I'm sure that she doesn't know how much Hayden hates Valeria right now. I heard Ray

    In the Howard family's estate, William slept soundly with Valeria in his arms after a night of madness. In the morning, he was awakened by Richard's phone call. He murmured, "Isn't it such a sin to wake someone up at this hour?" Richard laughed on the other side and said, "You haven't got up? Look at the time! The sun is already up, my god!" "Isn't it only seven o'clock?" "D*mn, William, you've gotten lazy. You're still in bed at seven o'clock." "That's enough. Let's stop the nonsense. What do you want to tell me?" "You really are a heartless person. I'm here to tell you some good news. Hardy went to the hospital last night due to gastric hemorrhage." "Is that so?" His reaction was calm. "Aren't you happy? It wasn't easy for Marcus and me to mess with him. Why don't you give us some applause and encouragement." Richard was not satisfied. "Okay, I'll give you a round of applause. But do you know what the consequences will be? He will

    In the ward, Hardy was taking laying in bed with a pale face while holding a phone in one hand for a phone call. Seeing Paisley come in, he looked at her and hung up the phone. "Who made you angry?" "No one. Are you feeling better?" She put the thermos bottle on the table. "I cooked porridge for you. Have some." "Alright." He nodded his head. She poured out the porridge to test the temperature. It was hard for him to eat with one hand, so she sat by the bed and fed him while saying, "Bro, the doctor told you to take a break. You should have a good rest and temporarily ignore the company's affairs." "You think I don't want that? I just can't leave it be," He laughed mockingly at himself.  "If it were in the past, I wouldn't care, but now, it's a critical time. William and Richard are pushing me forward step by step. If I leave it be, they will tear me into pieces." "You too! What were you thinking when you provoked him? You clearly know that it'

    William's expression did not change, "A blind date? Sure, but I have some conditions." "What's that? If it's impossible and tricky, then you don't have to mention it because I won't agree to it," Hayden did not want to compromise so easily.  "No, it's not impossible or tricky. It's very simple... My wife must be beautiful, so I only have one condition. The person you pick must be better-looking than Valeria. As long as you can satisfy this condition, I will go and have a look." Hayden had thought that he would come up with some tricky conditions, so he didn't expect it to be so simple. However, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it wasn't simple at all! Valeria's beauty was unmatched, so there was no way he could find someone who was better looking than her. Hayden glared at him angrily, "Are you kidding?" "What do you think? I can't be with a woman with lower standards, right? If I go on a blind date with a woman who is not as good as Val

    Valeria got goosebumps when she heard Natasya's cries. It disgusted her, so she hung up the phone and strode out with a frown.  As she walked, she called William. Now, the first person she turned to was William. However, his phone was turned off and she remembered that his cell phone was confiscated by Hayden. She had to call his temporary number. His temporary phone was handed over to Lucas, but he was afraid that Hayden might suspect something. He turned it off so she couldn't get through. She had no choice but to call Marcus now.  However, she couldn't get through to him either. What the hell! She called Bobby again, but his phone was also off. She felt that something was wrong. Why wasn't anyone answering the phone? Was there any conspiracy in this? Natasya was not a good person, so was this a trap? As she thought about it, Natalie called her and said, "Valeria, Natasya called me just now and said that Raymond fell from the mountain. Your father

  • That Stranger Lying Beside Me   Chapter 1748 The End

    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

  • That Stranger Lying Beside Me   Chapter 1745 Despise Abbie

    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
