Marcus left the hotel suite and returned to Wolf Group headquarters to report the situation to William, "Mr. Howard, I've already shown the video to the Floyd family, this should be the end of it." William replied casually and fiddled with his pen for a while, "My grandfather and uncle must feel very embarrassed, right?" "Yes, before I showed them the video, their attitude was very bad toward me, but it became even worse after watching the video," Marcus was actually telling the truth. William laughed and said, "I won't let this slide just like this. With how shameless and evil Angel is, I'm sure that she will definitely take revenge. In order to prevent unnecessary trouble in the future, I have to adjust something." "Adjust?" Marcus stared at William confusingly. William nodded and picked up his phone to make a call, "Bobby, order all the bodyguards that are in charge of protecting Valeria from now on, don't let Angel get close to Valeria. If something li
In the hotel, Fandrey sat in the study and was lost in his thoughts. Then, he called Callum over and said, "Angel doesn't become like this in one day. I think she will continue to cause trouble if she stays. I think it's better to send her back in case anything happens again. Arrange two bodyguards to send her back now." Callum nodded and said, "Okay, I will arrange it now." Deborah happened to hear the conversation between Callum and Fandrey, and she became angry of a sudden, "Why do you want to send Angel back? What exactly did she do wrong? Are you trying to get rid of her? What will the outsiders think if you send her back?" "Mom, everyone already knows the reason anyway, why will it matters?" "I don't think so. If you send Angel back, Valeria will definitely be very happy. What to do if she spread something bad about Angel? How is she supposed to face everyone in the future?" Deborah retorted, "The most important thing for girls is their reputation. Anyway,
Fandrey sighed, "William didn't say anything, but his actions have already made it clear. Do you know where he is now?" "How would I know where he is?" Deborah shook her head. "Then let me tell you where William is right now. He is now in the dining room downstairs with his in-laws and he hasn't said a word since this morning. He has already made it clear that he's getting impatient with us. Just stop it!" Deborah picked up her phone and angrily called William's number. "This b*stard! I don't believe that he'll treat us like this. I have to call him." The phone rang for a long time before it was connected. "Grandma!" William's voice was cold without a trace of warmth. Deborah could feel a hint of pressure even on the phone. She originally wanted to question him, so she softened her tone and asked, "Why didn't you come over today?" William's voice was still icy. "Who said I didn't? I already went over this morning? My wife almost got into an accident
Veronica thought for a moment and said, "Since they are all suspicious of you and you have indeed done it, then you should admit your mistakes. You need to apologize to your grandparents and ask Valeria to forgive you." "What? How can this work? I still haven't admitted that I framed Valeria. If I change my stance now, what will they think of me? I won't be able to regain my footing after this! This won't work. Mom, think of a new idea!" Angel disagreed. Veronica pondered for a while and sent a message. "I have another idea, but it's a little risky and it'll harm you greatly. It depends on whether you are willing to let yourself suffer." "I can do anything apart from apologzing," Angel replied. "Well, since Valeria has no evidence to prove that you've hurt her and you have never admitted it, you should be feeling very wronged now because you were bullied by them as well. You feel that you have nothing to live for because no one stood up for you, so you can only
Deborah's voice was trembling. "How can I not be worried? What if something happens to Angel? We only have one grandchild. I don't think I can live on if something happens to her." After that, she rushed over uncontrollably as soon as she saw Valeria and the others. "The culprits! You're all responsible!" When the Howard family's bodyguards saw Deborah rushing over, they immediately stepped forward to stop her. Deborah couldn't get close to Valeria and shouted angrily, "It's all your fault! If you didn't humiliate her like this, she wouldn't be so reckless!" "Mom, don't say that. There are so many people here. Won't it be shameful if you cause a ruckus here?" Callum advised. "What?! I only have one granddaughter. If something happens to her, I won't let you go! You'll pay a hefty price for this!" Deborah glared at Valeria and the others. Everyone understood Deborah's feelings when they saw how emotional after what happened to Angel. Hence, they
William, Fandrey, and a few bodyguards were waiting at the door of the operating room. Fandrey looked at the door of the operating room with a worried expression. "Is there anything wrong with her?" William comforted him, "Don't worry, Grandpa. I've arranged for the best doctors in the hospital. Nothing will happen." "She lost so much blood and the floor of the bathroom was full of blood... If... if something went wrong..." Fandrey thought of the bathtub that was filled with blood when Angel had tried to commit suicide. He tried to control himself, but he couldn't seem to do so his voice trembled a little. "How can I live on with Deborah? The Floyd family only has one grandchild... Your uncle, he... he is so stubborn..." William saw Fandrey's anxious expression and immediately helped the older man to sit down. "Grandpa, it'll be fine, don't worry! That's fine. You can tell me if there's anything you need, okay?" As William spoke, he looked at the bodyguard besid
A look of disgust flashed across William's eyes as he looked at the scene in front of him. The doctor suggested, "Send her to the ward first and put her on the IV drip. She needs to prevent her wound from getting infected!" Angel was sent to the ward while the Floyd family hurriedly followed behind her and William was a few steps behind. The doctor lowered his voice and said, "William, she only has a few cuts on her wrist and she lost some blood. She continued putting on an act after entering the operating room, and we applied electric shocks on her." "Well done!" William laughed and raised his voice. "Thank you so much for saving my cousin. I'll treat you to a meal some other day!" "No need, this is what we should do!" Several doctors declined politely. Fandrey heard their voices and looked back. He felt that something was wrong, but he could not tell exactly what was wrong. William stayed in the ward for a few minutes before leaving. When he was in the ward, D
William couldn't help but shake his head. Hayden was better at defending Valeria than he was. "My grandparents aren't that bad, but they have their own worries in their hearts. In fact, if we give in to them, this matter will slowly pass. But after the ruckus all of you have caused, I am afraid that something will happen again." "There's always a way out! What could they possibly do? We'll see!" Hayden didn't care. "That's true, but it's best if we don't fight each other. I feel that there's something fishy about Angel's suicide tonight because she doesn't look like someone who would dare to do this. Someone must be trying to sow discord." "Isn't she using suicide to gain sympathy? Of course, someone as vicious and shameless as her would do it." "Yes, but that's exactly why I think she will never hurt herself. Someone must have given her advice." "Could it be Natasya? Or Azalea?" Valeria asked. William shook his head. "Angel has always looked d
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
