After hanging up, William looked at Valeria and said, "You're in charge of inviting Gavin to dinner!" "Why? You're the one who made the promise, so why are you asking me to do it now?" she retorted. "We're a married couple, so it doesn't matter who does it, right?" he coaxed her with a smile, "Besides, I have amnesia. It's not realistic for me to invite him to dinner, is it?" "I don't want to be in charge of this," she did not hide her dissatisfaction in front of him. "You and I were schemed against by Natasya and Hardy. My parents reminded my grandfather about it many times, but he didn't believe them and kept defending Raelyn and Natasya. He even said that we need to have concrete evidence in order to accuse them! It's obvious that he favors them and wants to help them... I'm very upset by his behavior, and now that you are here for me, I don't need a biased grandfather like him anymore!" "Darling, your grandfather isn't biased! It's true that we didn'
Valeria called Abbie and Braelynn and asked them to come to the Wolf Group for dinner at night. She also specifically told Braelynn not to let Lucian know about it. William sent messages to Richard and Michael. After sending the messages, he looked at Valeria and said, "Give my dad a call and tell him to come over for dinner." "Why don't you call him?" she pursed her lips and asked. "Right now he likes you more than me, so he probably won't come if I call him, but it's a different story if you're the one calling. Just try to invite him! If he ends up coming, he might make peace with Gavin." Upon hearing his words, she called Hayden. When he heard her invite him to a meal, he didn't immediately agree and asked, "I'm not the only one invited, right? Who else will be there?" She said with a smile, "Just, everyone." "Is your grandfather invited? He's coming as well?" he asked. She didn't dare to lie, so she said honestly, "Yes." "Then I won't
Michael couldn't help but feel that something was wrong when he saw William's fake smile. William coughed dryly and said, "Four cups? I think I'm going to need an antidote if I don't want to have a crazy hangover tomorrow!" Michael froze when he heard the word "antidote". Was William trying to remind him about the antidote for Abbie? The antidote was in William's hands. If he offended him, he would not give it to him, so Abbie would never be able to recover! When Michael thought of this, he let out a hollow laugh, "Stop joking! I know your alcohol tolerance." "I'm not joking! I really might need that antidote!" William smiled. Michael smiled awkwardly and said, "We're brothers, so let's not act like strangers. One toast is enough! Cheers!" He picked up his drink and clinked it with William's. As soon as the two of them finished drinking, Richard looked at them in confusion, "What? Wasn't William supposed to drink four glasses? Michael, what are you doing?"
William did not know the answer to Archer's question. Gavin, Archer, Raymond, and Valeria were all part of the Saunders family, however, none of them were of vicious nature like Raelyn. Was she not part of the family? However, William quickly dismissed this ridiculous idea since she was the apple of Gavin's eyes not long ago. What was the real reason? Was it because Devon and Declan used a vermin on her? Could a vermin change a person's personality? He did not understand, so there was no other choice but to let nature take its course. After talking to Archer, they returned to the private room together. In the private room, Richard and Michael were dissatisfied after being toasted with so many drinks, and they immediately came up to William to force him to drink with them. William happily accepted their toasts, while Michael and Richard drank with him even though their alcohol tolerance wasn't the best. The room was full of chatter and laughter u
This was Braelynn's first time being so intimate with someone of the opposite gender, so she was flustered. Richard's lips moved with hers as he had his eyes closed. Since this was her first time experiencing this, her heart was beating violently in the chest, and she didn't know what to do. He had his eyes on her for a long time, and he finally got this opportunity with her today, so he would not just stop at kissing. On the other hand, she did not hate him either, otherwise, she would not have let him had his way with her. He was extremely excited with his crush in his arms, so he naturally would not give up this opportunity. As he proceeded to remove her clothes, she was defenseless in his arms and did not know how to reject him. He was exhilarated and thanked the Heavens for finally letting him live out his dreams. Unexpectedly, a call from Lamont came at the last minute, and Braelynn immediately regained her senses when she heard her r
William and Bobby went to the underground parking lot and got on the car. Along the way, Bobby described Richard's tragic situation last night to him in detail. After hearing what had happened, he burst out laughing. Bobby also laughed, "Sir William, don't laugh in front of Mr. Clark later, he'll get angry." "Don't laugh in front of him? Impossible! You should have seen him last night. He had the audacity to ask me to toast him with four glasses of wine! I'm so going to laugh at him later." Bobby also knew William's temper, so he kindly reminded, "Do you want to bring something for him? Fruits or something of that sort?" "We're not going to the hospital. Let's go straight to his house." "Isn't he in the hospital now? Why are we going to his house?" Bobby didn't quite understand. "He was hospitalized to fool Braelynn, so he was probably discharged right after she left. And since he's beaten up, it's impossible for him to go to the company, so he
When Talitha returned to the hotel from the hospital, she ran into Raelyn. She frowned when she saw her daughter and roughly pulled her into the room. Talitha's arm hurt, but she did not want to injure the child in her belly, so she did not struggle and let Raelyn do what she wanted. After she saw the marks on her hands from her mother's grip, she pushed her away and asked angrily, "Mom, what are you doing? You're hurting me!" Raelyn stared at her coldly and asked, "Where have you been? Why couldn't I get through to you?" "I went out with my friends," she answered guiltily. "If you went out, why did you turn off your phone? Do you know how many times I called you yesterday? I was so worried about you! I'm so mad!" Hearing her triggered tone, Talitha felt uncomfortable, "Mom, what do you mean? Why are you mad at me for no reason? I didn't mess with you." "Your sister was humiliated in the hospital yesterday and your grandfather also came to scold me
Judging from Arthur's attitude, it could be seen that Gavin was not in a good mood either. However, Talitha had a favor to ask, so she forced a smile and said, "I'm here to see grandpa!" "He doesn't want to see you. Go back," Arthur drove her away without mercy. "Please let me see him! I have something important to tell him!" she did not expect that she would end up pleading shamelessly like this one day. "Miss Anderson, he is very angry and sad because of what your mother and your sister have done, so he will treat your whole family with animosity. Please leave!" Arthur was not merciful at all and shut the door in her face. She did not expect to be so unwelcomed, so she bit her lip and took out her mobile phone to call Gavin, but he did not pick up. After several consecutive calls were rejected, she got ready to leave in dejection. However, just as she turned around, the sound of a car engine came from behind her. She saw Raymond driving back.
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
