Sadie's jaw dropped in astonishment. "Mom, are you kidding me? How can you say Marco Marseille looks nice and capable when he's so skinny? I won't even be surprised if he weighs less than me! I bet Missus Marseille brought him here to meet with us last time because she's afraid her son doesn't have much longer to live."Dad didn't mention introducing someone like him to me, so you better not have any strange ideas about this. You're my mom, after all!"Karen frowned. "What do you mean by that? You should know that as your mother, I'm not going to recommend just anybody to you! I care about your marriage the most. Have you ever thought that if your marriage is good, it would benefit me as a mother too?"Even though Marco doesn't look like he's in the best of health, his family fortune is second only to the Parr family. So just think about it. If Marco doesn't live long, it's even better, right? You'd inherit his family fortune effortlessly without having to cater to your husband. You

Rita felt bothered whenever Sadie spoke. It confused her at first, but she realized it was probably because she did not want to hear Sadie constantly calling her husband 'Shermy'.Regardless of what might happen in the future, Sherman was her rightful husband at that moment. What right did Sadie have to call him Shermy? They were not even relatives, so why such intimacy?Rita ignored Sadie and walked straight to Vince's study, having had something to say to him. However, Sadie stubbornly blocked her path at the door."I'm talking to you. Why are you acting deaf?" Sadie persisted.Rita took a breath, turned with a surprised look, and looked down at Sadie. "Oh, were you talking to me? Sorry, maybe you're too short, so I didn't hear you.""Hmph, enjoy your days while they last. It won't be long until Shermy dumps you! But then again, it's not like you two have any real feelings for each other. Shermy is just unlucky to be stuck with a floozy like you."Rita almost burst out laughing

Rita did not even glance back as she went to her father's study, leaving Sadie alone on the floor.Sadie gritted her teeth as she watched Rita's retreating figure. "I swear you'll pay for what you said today, Rita!"A servant downstairs saw Sadie on the floor and hurried over to help her up. "Miss, you should be more careful. Did you hurt yourself?"Sadie, instead of being grateful, slapped the servant hard across the face. "I know you're all on that woman's side. You're only here to mock me, right? Get lost, now!""I didn't..." The servant covered her face and ran off crying, leaving Sadie alone, silently seething.She knew that if she caused more trouble, Vince would definitely hear of it. By then, she and her mother would both be in trouble.Rita had Sherman's support, which meant she did not need to fear Vince. Sadie, on the other hand, could not afford to do that as she still needed Vince for her survival.'It's okay,' Sadie reassured herself. 'Once Esmond deals with Rita,

"You're a Russell now, so your grades represent those of the Rusell family. If your grades are poor, it will reflect badly on your father! Be a good girl, Sadie, and listen to me. Just stay at home and study. Consider it as keeping me company, okay?"Karen held Sadie's hand, not letting her leave. She had been feeling anxious lately, sensing that something big was about to happen every time her daughter insisted on going out.However, Sadie firmly broke free from Karen's grasp. "Don't worry, Mom. I'm just going out to buy a few books. I'll be back soon. If you're still worried, I'll video-call you when I get there, alright?"The more Sadie disobeyed her, the more Karen suspected that her daughter was hiding something from her. However, she could not stop her since she was heavily pregnant.Soon, Rita came downstairs to have lunch with the family. Karen immediately lost her appetite when she saw Rita was there, and it was the same for Rita. However, Rita forced herself to stay at th

"Sadie's last semester's grades were passable but not outstanding, so I didn't mention it to your father. Of course, her grades aren't at a level where we need to worry too much yet. Besides, she has me to worry about her."I'm sure you know we mothers care about our daughters the most. I worry about every aspect of her life, including her education," Karen said deliberately, hoping to see Rita's expression darken.Regardless, Rita's mother was gone, while Karen was right there. Thus, what right did Rita—a girl without a mother—have to compete with Sadie?"Alright, since your stepmother said so, you don't need to worry yourself over Sadie. Aren't you busy with the newspaper lately? Instead of wasting time worrying about Sadie's grade, why don't you use that time on your work? Everyone has their fate. Even if we hire a tutor from Harvard for her, it won't help if she doesn't focus on her studies. So don't bother worrying about her."Karen did not like what she was hearing. She was a

Karen stayed in the marriage and endured the abuse day in and day out for Sadie's sake. She did consider running away with her daughter, but she knew that once captured, she would be subjected to even harsher beatings. Thus, she lost the ability to fight back and no longer dared to escape.Karen never imagined Esmond's departure would be so abrupt at the time. It was as if he had an awakening and took all the cash from the house before leaving their world. At that time, Karen often wondered if Esmond had died somewhere. Otherwise, he would not have spared her and her daughter so easily.Then, she realized he was probably fighting for territory with other thugs on the streets.Karen felt contempt at the time. Esmond's life amounted to nothing more than earning money through force. She would never touch that kind of money. The last time she contacted him was because she could not think of any other way to deal with Rita, only for that brat to escape again.Esmond had called a few tim

After all, if Sherman and Rita were to have a baby, he would cherish them regardless of gender. He would spoil the baby like a princess if it were a girl, and if it were a son… Well, he would spoil him just the same.Sherman smiled wryly at the thought. As long as it was his and Rita's baby, he could not possibly not adore them.Rita, unaware of Sherman's thoughts about their future child's gender, was grumbling on her end. "I hate it here. If it weren't for getting evidence, I wouldn't have come back. I'm losing my appetite more and more in this house. Even Donna's cooking can't save it."Sherman naturally felt distressed to hear that. "Then why don't you hurry out? Do you want to sit at the dining table until the end of time?"Rita was surprised. "Are you saying you're here to pick me up already?"As she walked outside while holding her phone, she smiled when she saw the car parked at the door. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I wouldn't have stayed for lunch if you had told me

Sherman had memorized Rita's schedule. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, Rita would visit her father. She persisted in visiting even though it was difficult to get more clues from Karen. Thus, Sherman chose to pick her up from her father's home to take her out for dinner or somewhere else, to cheer her up."Yes, I'm going back today. I'll text you after I finish eating," said Rita."Okay, but text me when you're about to finish eating. I'll come over immediately.""No. I'll be driving today, so just send me your location. I'll meet you there.""That works, too."They did not immediately hang up the phone after making their plans. Listening to each other's shallow breaths through the phone, Rita felt that she was one step closer to happiness. "I'm going to start driving now, so let's hang up, okay?"Sherman replied, "No, let's keep it this way. I won't bother you."Thus, Rita did not hang up the phone. While she was driving, they occasionally exchanged a few words. It was just
