Talitha immediately called Raymond after hanging up Hardy's call, "Raymond, he promised to meet me! Oh my god, I'm so happy. If you hadn't given me advice, I wouldn't have been able to see him at all!" "Don't be too happy about it. It's fishy that he wants to meet you now after avoiding you so much. He must have some ulterior motives. Be careful!" To be honest, Talitha did not fully believe that Raymond's advice would help her, but no one else was helping her, so she decided to cling to her only hope. Now, after his suggestion was proved to be useful, her trust in him increased a lot. She put aside her initial doubts and fully trusted in him now. She immediately asked him, "Raymond, I have already made the arrangements to meet him at the tea house, what shall I do next?" "Just meet him and go with the flow. Anyway, you have to insist to give birth to the baby and see his reaction towards it. If he's willing to accept your opinion, everything will be fine
What did he think of her pregnancy? He couldn't wait to get rid of the child in her belly. As the disturbing thoughts appeared in his mind, he said, "I... I'm very surprised by it. Talitha, tell me what you think about it first." When she saw his gentle eyes, she smiled and said, "Of course I want to give birth to the baby. Are you willing to let me do that?" "Sure! Go ahead if you want to!" he replied affectionately. "Is there anything else you want to tell me?" she asked eagerly. "Hmm... I want to marry you! Talitha, will you marry me?" he said gently. "Really? It's my dream to marry you! Are you lying to me, Hardy? You're not tricking me to make me happy, right?" she felt that he was a completely different person today. Although she was happy, she still had a lot of doubts in her heart. Hardy swore in his head and said, "Why will I? We are already together, and you are pregnant now. I am not an irresponsible person, so don't worry. I will take r
When the door at the rental house was closed, Silas smiled and picked up his phone to call William, "William, the show is on!" William burst out laughing, "There are no problems with the cameras, right?" "Theoretically, there should be nothing wrong with them," he said as he took out a laptop and opened it. The scene at the rental house showed up, and Hardy had already been stripped nude by the women. Silas squinted and smiled after seeing the unsightly images and hearing the sounds on the screen. Then, he closed the laptop and said, "Alright, there's no problem." William ordered, "Get ready to leave and park Hardy's car there. There will be reporters waiting for him when he's done." "Okay! I'll leave now!" he got out of Hardy's car and got into his own car, then retreated with his men. William stood on the balcony as he tossed his phone around. After recalling Hardy's current situation, he couldn't help but chuckle. When Hardy wakes up to him
Silas modified his voice and replied, "Mr. Saunders, I was just about to call you. I've been looking for Hardy according to your instructions, and I just found out his whereabouts." "Where is he?" Raymond asked deliberately. "He's at a western restaurant in Hyatt Hotel, with a long-haired woman. They just finished dinner and are heading to one of the hotel rooms." "Are you kidding me? You sure?" He asked in surprise. "How could I be wrong? I would never mistake him for someone else. Wow, they're kissing in the corridor right now!" Silas exaggerated on purpose. Raymond put his phone on speaker mode, and Silas did not hang up, so Talitha could clearly hear about the news. Hearing that Hardy flirted with another woman, she was furious, "That's not true! I don't believe it!" Raymond immediately asked, "Do you have any photos?" "Yes, I just took two. Mr. Saunders, do you want to see them now? I'll send it to you right away." After sayin
Raelyn did not agree with Natasya at all, "Hardy? You want to cooperate with a crazy man like him? Have you lost your mind?" "I haven't lost my mind. The only way to successfully scheme against William is by cooperating with Hardy, and I'm willing to let go of my grudges against him in order to get what I want. He would have never agreed to cooperate with me because of what happened last time, but with Talitha's pregnancy, we might be able to negotiate with him." Raelyn shook her head, "The first thing he tried to do when he heard of Talitha's pregnancy was to get rid of the baby. Do you think he will work with us when he was already so vicious towards her?" "Of course, it won't be easy, but just as Talitha said, his men are being detained in the police station, so we have something to hold against him. You should ask dad to arrange for them to be detained even longer so that we can force him to work with us!" Talitha was unreliable, but Natasya was different, s
Gonzalec knew that the medicine wouldn't cause any side effects, but he wouldn't tell them the truth because of Williams orders. He said while stroking his head, "I heard my grandfather say that there will be side effects if the vermin is not used well." This made Lucian glance at Devon, and she immediately asked, "Is there an antidote for it?" "There should be. It was made by my grandfather, so he should know about it, and I have to ask him first," he answered, deliberately pretending to know nothing, and then asked, "Who had side effects from the vermin?" "The guest who bought the medicine has some symptoms after taking the medicine, so I'm here to inquire about it." "The side-effects are life-threatening! Are you sure it's side effects from the vermin?" He asked. "I'm not completely sure," Devon was anxious when he heard that. Even though he didn't intend to talk, he immediately said, "Can you describe the specific symptoms of the side effects?"
Marcus agreed with a smile on his face, and William instructed Silas, "It looks like Devon still has his guard up because he's arranging for someone to accompany Gonzalec to visit his grandfather. Get ahead of them and ask his grandfather about the blood vermin first, then we'll wait for them." "Okay, I'll arrange it right away!" Silas nodded and then asked him, "Mr. Howard, Devon definitely wants to use the blood vermin against you. The name itself sounds so nasty, so it should be something really bad. You have to be careful to not come into contact with it... Should I ask Gonzalec's grandfather to give them a fake one?" William shook his head and said, "No, it has to be real! It won't be fun if it's fake! All you need to do is ask him about the details of the blood vermin and it'll be fine." Seeing Valeria's worried face, he reached out to hold her hand, "Don't worry, I was unaware of Natasya's schemes back then, so she had the opportunity to take advantage of me. N
Paisley did not know anything about what had happened to Hardy. When she received the call, she was still sleeping soundly under her blanket. Hearing that he was in the police station, she immediately woke up and called Bevan. However, Bevan's phone was confiscated, so he could not be reached. She had no choice but to call the Acma Corporation's lawyer and asked him to go to the police station immediately. She arrived one step ahead of him. When she saw Hardy, who was red with embarrassment and fury, she took a step back in fright. "Brother? Why are you so in a mess?" After being brought to the police station, Hardy had lost all of his dignity. Seeing his sister, he asked eagerly, "Where is Bevan? Where the hell did he go? Why didn't he come with you?" "I couldn't reach him through his phone, and I don't know where he is." Hearing her explanation, he was sure that something had happened to him, so he said in a hoarse voice, "Call the l
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
