Hardy sneered after hanging up, "This woman is insatiable. She wants to use me." "Mr. Anthony, are you going to listen to her?" "She's right. We should ask someone to keep an eye on this. As long as we make sure that the arm is William's, Richard and Marcus won't continue the search anymore. They'll probably try to find the rest of his body in the nearby areas. In that case, even if he has a chance to live, it'll be useless." He sneered, "I'm going to make the next move first. First, I'm going to attack the Howard family and cause some internal chaos." "What do you want to do?" "First, I'll use the DNA test to prove that William is already dead. If Hayden dies after receiving the news, there won't be anything to fear in the Howard family anymore. If he doesn't die, he will definitely fight with the Saunders family terribly because they were related to both his son and daughter's death. Then, I'll be able to reap the benefits." "There's still the Wolf
The DNA results came out at noon three days later. After seeing the result, Marcus was silent for a long time. It was already the sixth day since William's disappearance. Still, they had not found any new information about him. Richard, Archer, and the others had already accepted the truth of his death. But Valeria didn't believe it. She wouldn't give up until she saw his body. Marcus didn't know what to do as she had been waiting in the van by the river all this time and refused to leave. He didn't dare to bring the bad news to her. To tell the truth, Marcus didn't want to believe the bad news himself. He looked for Richard, Archer, and Michael for a discussion. Everyone smoked silently. After a while, Archer said, "Well, let's not tell Valeria about it for now so that she can have some hope." "If we don't tell her, she will continue to wait there. Are we going to just watch her do that? Have you seen her look? How long can she last for? Aren'
Callum and Sammuel looked at William. His eyes opened as he stared at them in confusion. "William, you're awake! I'm Angel!" Angel's heartbeat became faster as she saw his handsome face, and she immediately leaned close to look at him. William stared at her without moving. When she saw him looking at her in confusion, she added, "You don't know me, do you? I'm Angel, your cousin!" Cousin? He started to have a bad headache. William's mind was filled with a woman's voice, a woman called Natasya, and they loved each other deeply. But the woman in front of him was called Angel. She wasn't Natasya? Then who was Natasya? Was he dreaming of and what about Valeria? Who was that disgusting woman called Valeria? He couldn't figure it out and could only stare blankly at Angel. She smiled shyly, "William, are you alright? Are you listening to me?" Callum frowned and pulled her away. "He just woke up, we should call the doctor first!" William's gaze fell o
After Hayden's outburst, he collapsed and the doctor immediately brought him to the emergency room. Andrew's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at George and Philip, "If anything happens to grandpa, I'll definitely not let the both of you off!" "What does this have to do with us? It's all your fault! You hid it from him since the beginning, making him unable to take such a huge blow now!" They pushed the blame back to him. "I'm telling you, if you want to take advantage of the fact that William is not here to take over the family inheritance, you can keep on dreaming! We'll never agree to it!" As they were in the midst of a heated argument, Bobby rushed in and grabbed George and Philip to shoo them out. The two of them screamed in pain after they were thrown to the ground. Bobby stepped on one of them with an evil look on his face and said, "I'm warning you! Stop this ruckus, or I'll kill you!" George and Philip almost wet their pants out of fear as th
No one expected Valeria to be legitimately pregnant, so this big news left everyone shocked. Everyone sighed in relief. Valeria would not give up on herself since she had William's child now, and Hayden would be able to regain his will to live because of William's successor. As they were amid the relief, the Saunders family was already busy preparing to help Valeria take care of her pregnancy. Andrew immediately ran back to Hayden to tell him the great news. Hayden stared blankly at the ceiling. Ever since he woke up, he hadn't spoken a single word and he ignored everyone who talked to him. Andrew panted while he pushed the door open and said, "Grandpa! Aunt Valeria is pregnant!" Hayden stayed still in bed as if he hadn't heard anything. Andrew then grabbed his hand and said, "Grandpa, Aunt Valeria is pregnant! Uncle William has a child!" Hayden didn't show any reaction when he heard the name 'Aunt Valeria', however, his reaction to the name 'Uncle W
In the best hospital in New York, Fandrey walked past the quiet corridor and strode into the ward under the escort of several bodyguards in black. When Natasya and the servants in the ward saw Fandrey, they immediately stood up and greeted him respectfully, "Good morning, Mr. Floyd!" He nodded his head and went over to the bed to look at William who was still unconscious. "It has been a few days. Why hasn't he woken up yet?" Natasya forced a smile and said, "The doctor said that his situation is getting better. He woke up just now for a short while and passed out again soon after." "What's the reason for it?" He frowned. The doctor and nurse came in quickly and said to Fandrey, "He has blood clots in his brain due to the concussion. We have checked it, so as long as the blood clots disappear, he will recover." "How long will it take?" He asked. "It's hard to say. Maybe a week, maybe half a month..." He frowned and interrupted the doctor.
As he fell deep into his thoughts, William started to experience excruciating pain in his head. The intense pain made him ignore Natasya and he turned to Angel. Angel smiled sweetly at him and said, "Cousin!" William smiled when he looked at her. The first person he saw since he woke up was Angel, so he felt especially close to her. He had a heart-warming smile, and Angel could not help but lean over, "Do you feel uncomfortable?" He didn't say anything and Instead, he looked at Fandrey. Fandrey realized that his smile looked like Matilda's and his heart ached as he reached out to hold William's hand. "William, I'm your grandfather!" Fandrey who had always ignored him as if he was a stranger, was holding onto his hand tightly. This was too alarming. He remained calm and thought that something was surely not right. Where was Bobby? Bobby always followed him wherever he went. Where did he go? Why were these people surrounding him instead?
Gavin was told about what happened by the bodyguards and he sighed when he saw Natalie coming back home. "Hayden is very stubborn and he is already at his limits by accepting Valeria. William left this world to save Valeria and Hayden will definitely deal with us if she is not pregnant. So now, no matter what he says, bear with it." "I know. I didn't take it to heart," Natalie replied. "You can rest assure that Hayden will take care of her well. I'll discuss about this incident with Archer and we'll settle it according to Hayden's wishes. I'll make them pay for going against the Saunders family." Natalie nodded, "Dad, if... if the one who hurt Valeria is one of your closest relatives, will you forgive that person?" "Of course!" He nodded. He only had a son and a daughter. Was Natalie suspecting Raelyn? He knew that Raelyn didn't like Natalie, but it was impossible for him to treat Valeria and William like that. Gavin didn't believe th
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
