In the Hospital of B City, rapid footsteps sound in the quiet corridors of the VIP senior ward.

Dressed in casual attire, William strode through the corridor with four bodyguards and headed straight for Master Howard's ward.

Outside the ward stood Master Howard's bodyguards and caretakers. When they suddenly saw William, they were so excited.

Especially Tracy Baker, the caretaker of Master Howard, came over and said, "Young Master William! Young Master William, you are back!"

"Hm! What's going on with my dad?"

"He's not very well. He has been talking about you all the time. It's good that you're back. The sight of you will make him half better."

As she spoke, she pushed open the door of the ward. Master Howard, who was lying on the bed, heard the voice and was trying to sit up. William quickly walked in and stretched out to hold Master Howard, "Dad, you've lost a lot of weight!"

"My child, why didn't you tell me you were coming back? If I hadn'

    Driving back to the Lake View Nest, William saw Valeria watching TV in the living room. Hearing the sound of the door opening, Valeria did not turn back and continued to stare intently at the TV. William walked over to her with a smile and took him seated by her side, "Why didn't you answer my call?" Without a word, Valeria just continued to stare at the TV screen. "I'm talking to you. Why don't you answer me?" William reached out to touch her hand. Valeria threw off his hand, "I don't want to talk to you. Get out of my sight!" "What makes you so angry? Is it about my discharge? I'm trying to surprise you." Then he pulled a bunch of flowers from behind his back and handed them to Valeria with a big smile on his face, "Thank you for taking care of me when I was sick. It's a thank-you gift." Valeria stared at the bright flowers in his hand. So beautiful and fresh the rose was! "A bunch of flowers for me? Is this an apology?" She

    Ashley sent a message and waited. For quite a long time, there was no response. But Mason never called back. Ashley began to waver, "Mom, why didn't he call back?" "Don't panic. He is probably going to tell Elizabeth and discuss it with her before making a decision." "Do you really believe that I can save the situation for being pregnant? It sounds impossible." "There are other plans. Your pregnancy is just a testing to tell whether Elizabeth cares about the baby inside or not. If she does, we can move on to the next step. If not, we need to think of another way." "What does it have to do with Elizabeth? I thought we should pay attention to Mason's reaction?" Ashley quickly cut in. "What are you thinking! Do you have any idea that Mason is now subservient to Elizabeth? Elizabeth is now his God, you get that?" Julie gave her a stern look and continued. "Elizabeth couldn't treat her only nephew, Mason better. While the Howard family i

    The two talked freely in the room. Elizabeth' gentleness had been replaced with hatred now. "I heard that William has sneaked back to see Master Howard." "What? It is impossible. How did he know that Master Howard was ill?" Mason got a startle. "I think Master Howard called him. Master Howard wants to promote William this time. Like your uncle said, he's going to get this inept playboy into two key departments of the company." "What is Master Howard doing?" Mason sneered. "Everyone knows that William is a playboy who can do nothing but play with women." "But it doesn't change the fact that he is a man of noble birth." Elizabeth was filled with anger. "Master Howard must have known something that he has begun to watch out your uncle. Your uncle is in a hard time now, and the same to us. You have to be more careful recently and don't do anything stupid." "No, I won't. As for Valeria, I've already arranged for someone else to deal with it. I won't

    "Ashley is pregnant?" Valeria looked at the message from Ali for a moment. She subconsciously replied, "How did you know that?" "I saw it in the company chatting group. Ashley was seen doing a pregnancy test at the hospital. It is said that she was pregnant. Valeria, did you and Mason break up for good?" "Yeah, there is no way we can be together again." Valeria replied. All was over between them when Mason, in a self-righteous way, betrayed her to be with Ashley and helped to bully her. She had given up Mason, but the news of Ashley's pregnancy still hurt her. She was in love with Mason for real back then and even dreamed about marrying him and having babies. But everything changed now. "Don't be sad, Valeria. He cheating on you in your dating period proves that he is not your Mr. Right. You deserve someone better!" Sad still. She sighed heavily and put away the phone. William stared at Valeria without moving and he thought, "The cut

    Mason didn't mean to eavesdrop. He was waiting for a client in the car originally and didn't expect to see Valeria coming this way with some staff. Then he saw them laughing and joking. Happy was the woman and handsome was the man. Mason was so jealous that he almost went crazy. He betrayed Valeria and went out with Ashley not just because of what Ashley said. It all because of a secret in his heart. From the very beginning of their relationship, he knew exactly why Valeria loved him. Because Valeria thought he was her savior when he knew he wasn't. Mason yearned for her true love instead of being regarded as someone who had saved her. Valeria was so good and simple. Mason had been suffering all the time. He did not withstand that Valeria would leave him without hesitation once she found out the truth.   So when Ashley set him off by saying that Valeria was fooling around with other men and didn't love him, he blew up. He felt that Valeri

    In the department of gynecology and obstetrics of the hospital, Ashley kept checking her phone from time to time nervously on the bench. Yesterday Mason promised to accompany her to the hospital for a pregnancy check, but she had been waiting for an hour and a half and still hadn't seen Mason. Mason wouldn't stand her up, would he? Worried, she calls Mason, and Elizabeth answers the phone, "There's a traffic jam. Just wait a little longer. We'll be there soon." Ashley didn't expect that Elizabeth would accompany Mason in person. She knew very well that she was not pregnant. It would be much hard for her to fool Elizabeth. So Ashley was worried that her secret would be found out. As soon as she hung up, Elizabeth turned and looked at Mason frowning, "What's wrong with you? You are supposed to be in the hospital while you are still in bed now." "I got drunk last night.!" Mason rubbed his forehead. "Why? The client didn't require you to drink last

    Valeria entered the building with full of misgiving. She did very well in the interview, and the interviewer was satisfied with her experience and appearance. The salary they offered was decent. She was likely going to work here afterwards. Nothing could be more wonderful. On the way back, she made plans for her future, and the first step was to quit her previous job. She was going to do it right now, so she rushed to her company and submitted the resignation letter. When she turned back, the car stopped at the street crossing at a red light. She unexpectedly saw the car of Marcus again. William and Marcus were both in the back seat of the car. The former was cozy there with his head on his arms and the latter was talking to William with a smile. That was extremely weird.

Because of the limit of her credit card, she couldn't afford luxury brands, so she bought it from an ordinary store. Even the cheapest clothes would shine on William, who was model-gorgeous.

    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
