Deborah's eyes lit up as well and asked, "Really? How about asking him to tag along with us?" "Sure, I shall give him a call to ask if he has the free time." Valeria immediately contacted William, "Honey, are you currently at B City's highway? I happen to be here too." "Yes, I'm here to have a word with your father. Would you like to join us then?" "Sure! I'm here with your grandma. Do you have the time to hang out with us later?" "Of course!" Valeria hung up the phone and said, "William is with my dad right now. Let's go and say hi to them." "But... won't we become an inconvenience for them?" Deborah had a second thought when knowing that Archer was with her grandson. "Absolutely not. Grandma, there is no need to be worried as we are a family. Let's go!" Valeria took Deborah to the private room where Archer and William were currently at. Archer immediately stood up upon noticing their arrival and greeted, "Mrs. Floyd, nice to meet you!"
It was best to strike when the iron was hot. Raelyn knew that her current miserable state would be her most powerful weapon to deceive Gavin. She decided to endure the pain and injuries for the greater good. She stumbled and eventually left the hospital. She needed to take a cab and head back to B City immediately. She decided to meet Gavin and tell him how sorrowful her condition was. She planned to meet with Archer and Natalie to admit her mistakes after getting Gavin on her team. She needed to humble down and win their trust. They were kind-hearted persons and Raelyn needed to try her best in begging for their mercy. It was hoped that they will let their guard down and eventually accept her in being part of the family again. The following scene had taken place in the Saunders family's house. Gavin had yet to receive the news about Devon's arrest and Raelyn's hospitalization. He was feeling moody despite not knowing about the breaking news. He did not have mu
Raelyn was taken back and froze there. The man led on by grabbing her hand and began to harm herself with the dagger. The sound of slitting herself was as clear as day. The signal of sharp pain was sent throughout her body and she wanted to scream. The men, who were wearing white gloves quickly covered her mouth. Raelyn couldn't make a sound but kept twisting her body in an attempt to ease the throbbing sensation. They were in control and led the way for Raelyn to stab herself continuously. Blood gushed out from the injured spots and she was in agony. The men did not stop and continued their objective. She had spiked every single part of her body several times. It was not severe enough to kill her, but it was sufficient to let her experience a level of pain that was out of this world. Raelyn was eventually injured as if she had tried to commit suicide. The two men loosened their grip and disappeared within a blink of an eye. Raelyn held the dagger and crum
Archer shook his head upon seeing his father leaving them. Gavin must have been feeling skeptical judging by how he had instructed Arthur to accompany Archer. "My dad must be having second thoughts about me since he has indirectly instructed you to keep an eye on me. Pfft! He has been trusting the wrong person all this while. I don't even know whether he is still in his sound mind or not!" Arthur smiled apologetically and said, "He can't help but hesitate due to his age. Do calm down as you are ultimately the innocent one. Mr. Saunders will have no choice but to accept the truth when the time comes." Archer nodded and said, "Alright then. I am no longer worried about Gavin since he still has the strength to doubt my actions!" Deborah, Valeria, and William had finished watching the opera performance and went to have dinner together. It was still early and Deborah proposed to watch a movie with them. They finally decided to call it a day and the married coup
William and Valeria sent Deborah back to the hotel before making their way towards the Howard family's old estate. Valeria was extremely tired and leaned against his arms before closing her eyes to have a rest. He put his hand on her belly and began caressing it gently. The children in her stomach were growing up and became increasingly active. They would strike from different directions at random times. William grinned happily upon feeling their movements. Valeria opened her eyes and glanced at him. "Why are you smiling like an idiot? Have you gone mad?" "No, I am just mesmerized by our babies. Honey, what do you think they are currently doing? Are they exercising now? Can they hear us?" "Of course they can. Why would I insist you in telling them some stories every day then?" Valeria looked at him and asked further, "What are you going to tell them tonight?" "I haven't thought about it yet. I will eventually come up with something when we arrive at
Natasya was taken into the interrogation room upon arrival at the police station. She refused to speak and continued playing dumb. She still refused her guilty acts. The police eventually presented the evidence of her instructing someone to commence the murder plan. She panicked upon glancing at it. How did the police know about this? This was a serious matter and it would be game over should she admit to her actions. However, there was still a chance to turn things around if she denied the accusation. She chose the latter option and decided to keep her mouth shut. She remained indifferent and the interrogation personnel eventually left the room. Natasya had been alone in the interrogation room for a few hours. The door was suddenly being pushed open and Bevan came in alongside a stranger. Natasya was pleased upon seeing a familiar face and greeted, "Bevan!" He politely replied, "Miss Anderson, you have been through a lot. Mr. Anthony has instructed me to
Archer immediately comforted him, "Dad, do calm down and try to take a few deep breaths." It was impossible for Gavin to keep his cool. He raised his voice, "This report is inaccurate and I am not buying it! This is utter rubbish! How can it be true?" "Dad, please!" Gavin roared, "Are you trying to deceive me just because you are holding a grudge against Raelyn? Hmm?" "Dad, how could you say that? Do I look like that kind of a person?" Archer smiled bitterly. "I don't believe it! This is absolutely ridiculous!" Arthur also chimed in to calm him down, "Mr. Saunders, you have to believe us! You can always have a look at the footage or have the test done once again to check things out. You can wait there just like we did as the result would be out within five hours anyway." "What on earth is happening?" Gavin calmed down for a bit upon the persuasion of Arthur. He still could not accept the truth and threw the report away. "What the hell is going
William frowned and said, "Raelyn's parents must be equally a pain in the ass judging by their daughter's character. Lucas, do you still remember when did Laila and her husband get divorced?" "Nope, but I think they cut ties with each other when Raelyn had married Devon. Laila's husband was having an affair at that time and decided to end things with Laila. I do recall that Laila transferred her wealth to him. He also had a wedding celebration party when he married his mistress. He even sent me an invitation letter to attend it." Laila left without any penny in her pocket? She was nevertheless the servant of the Saunders family. Her husband would not have the guts to treat her so poorly. She might be lying about it. There was also a possibility that something fishy was happening at that time. William chuckled and said, "Alright then. I shall arrange for someone to pay Laila's husband a visit soon!" Gavin had already calmed down when William had arrived at the Sa
