Two days later, at Southern Haven Villas, Kevin reported the progress to Zach, "We found out that the people who kidnapped Ms. Jent were human traffickers. Their organization was huge. But now, they've all been completely captured by the police. Regarding the person whom Ms. Jent hurt, our legal department is defending her.

"Also, the medical report from the hospital showed that there was ether inside Ms. Jent's body. She must've been drugged."

Zach was hugging Madelyn, who was still unconscious. He let her lean on his body while he measured her body temperature.

He responded, "Tell them that everyone involved in this matter should not be spared."

Kevin nodded, "Okay."

He thought, 'After the court passes judgment, those people will probably end up either dead or disabled when they're in prison.'

After Kevin left, Kai arrived at the scheduled time.

He prescribed some allergy medication for Madelyn, "The weather is freezing. And with the shock she experienced, she'll definitely ge

    Madelyn lifted her head from his arm to look at his face. It was the first time in a very long time that she had seen him in such a disheveled state. He even had stubble on his chin. However, this did not diminish his handsomeness. Instead, it added a unique charm to his mature appearance.Then, she noticed the wound on his neck. She just stared at it expressionlessly.After staring for some time, Zach moved his body. It seemed like he had woken up. He took a deep breath before reaching out to touch her forehead with his eyes closed to feel her temperature."It's still early. Go back to sleep." Zach's voice was low, husky, and pleasant.He then adjusted his position. He held her hand and placed it around his waist. He then embraced her tightly as he caressed her long hair.Madelyn did not say a word. She just allowed him to hug her.At that moment, the master bedroom door was slightly pushed open. Dalton crawled on the floor. He lifted his head to look at them. His eyes were big,

    Margaret was about to tidy up another room. When she heard the noise, she quickly went to the master bedroom. She was startled when she saw the scene. She hurriedly carried Dalton to the baby room beside the master bedroom to put him down.She came back and said, "Mr. Jardin, what you're doing won't do. We need to use cold water to wipe Ms. Jent's body.""Go get some water now." Zach did not want to let go of Madelyn.Margaret then went to fetch a basin of cold water.The cream could relieve itching. Soon enough, Madelyn did not feel itchy anymore. However, the wounds from the scratching began to hurt.She said, "Don't think I'll be grateful to you because of this incident."Zach lowered her head as he carefully treated her wounds with a cotton swab, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have lost my temper with you."Madelyn thought she heard him wrongly. She could not believe the usually arrogant Zach actually apologized to her.Zach was prideful. To him, everything he did was right, even

    The officers did not listen to Madelyn. None of them cared about her opinion.Zach was still holding Madelyn. She could only watch as everything was finalized.The officers handed the marriage license to Zach, "Mr. Jardin, the procedures have been completed. You and Ms. Jent are now legally married. If there are any further questions, you can contact us."Madelyn stared at Zach blankly. She did not expect that he could so easily do all these procedures. The photo of them placed together with the marriage license was also photoshopped.'I'd never take pictures with him,' Madelyn thought. She then said, "Zach Jardin, you're so despicable! You're fabricating our relationship."Zach responded, "This day would come sooner or later."He put away the marriage license and continued, "Isn't it great? From now on, you're my lawfully wedded wife."Madelyn, you're finally mine."Zach drove Madelyn mad!He picked a beautiful dress for her to celebrate their new marriage.He also did a twi

    Dalton tugged on Madelyn's sleeve, drawing her attention to him. He had finished his milk and was waving the bottle, indicating he wanted more. Madelyn glanced emotionlessly at Margaret.Margaret noticed Madelyn's glance and quickly came over to take Dalton. However, Zach spoke up, "I'll take him."Margaret hesitated briefly before handing Dalton over to Zach. The usually restless Dalton sat quietly on Zach's lap, content with some snacks given by Margaret to nibble on."Let's eat," Zach announced, cradling Dalton in one arm while serving fish onto Madelyn's plate with his other hand.Zach did not force Madelyn to accept the gift she was reluctant to take. Instead, he pushed it toward her and said, "You can open it later and take a look. Consider it my wedding gift to you."Madelyn did not acknowledge the gesture, maintaining her silence throughout the meal. After they finished, the photographer for the family portrait arrived. At that moment, Madelyn's face was preoccupied with r

    Madelyn replied to Margaret, "I just want to taste it."It has been a year since Madelyn's rebirth, a time she would not forget.Margaret found it hard to refuse Madelyn's rare request. She said, "I'll make it right away, just like the ones you get outside.""Thanks," Madelyn said.Margaret hurriedly began preparing the grilled food for Madelyn, but the kitchen at home lacked the proper ingredients, as Madelyn was not fond of spicy food. When Margaret realized they did not have the necessary equipment for grilling, she quickly called the driver, Jordan, to get some.Jordan planned to inform Zach about that, as everything concerning Madelyn required his permission. It might seem trivial, but Zach never tired of knowing every little detail about her.When Zach was about to check on Madelyn, he learned about the grilled food request from Jordan. Zach asked, "Grilled food?""Yes, Mr. Jardin. Margaret gave me some money and asked me to get the items on the list." Jordan replied, hand

    Madelyn did not respond to Zach's query. He approached and sat beside her, his deep gaze following her line of sight before darkening."I've arranged everything with the photoshoot company," Zach began, breaking the silence. "Once you're better, the custom wedding dresses from overseas will arrive in the capital. We can try them on then."Zach reached for Madelyn's hand, but she swiftly withdrew it. She said, "Zach, stop it already! You processed our marriage certificate on my behalf without acknowledging me. You've achieved your goal. So, stop seeking my attention."Zach, undeterred by Madelyn's words, said, "The PR department will announce our marriage. Soon, everyone in the capital will know you're the wife of the CEO of Jardin Corporation.""Zach! Do you realize how people viewed our relationship in the past? You were my father's adopted son, my brother. Now that he's gone and we are married, do you know how others will judge us?" Madelyn asked.When Madelyn married Zach in th

    Madelyn realized it was Zach holding her in his arms. His feverish body temperature was alarmingly high. He was still unwell, yet he insisted on staying with her.As Madelyn looked up at Zach's handsome face, she remembered how she used to love him so dearly. She thought, 'Zach, why did you hate me so much in the previous life? Is it because I had hurt Jadie? But I had atoned for that sin. Are your feelings for me genuine now?'Meanwhile, Cecilia, wearing a bathrobe in a high-rise apartment, furiously scattered everything on the table. She roared, "Zach! How could you marry her!"Cecilia was in a frenzy, trembling as she looked at the announcement on the company's social media account and the glaring marriage certificate on her phone. She could not believe Zach had married Madelyn."I was the one who helped you build Jardin Corporation, who pushed you to become CEO, who led you to your success. I should have been the one you married! How could you marry someone else?!" Cecilia grum

    At that moment, a young woman around twenty-five with long dyed hair and a professional skirt walked in from the secretary's office, carrying a cup of coffee. She stuttered nervously, "M–Mr. Harrison, your coffee."Kevin frowned slightly, barely concealing his annoyance. He ordered, "Leave it on the table."Susan, Kevin's new assistant, was filling in for Blake. She, clearly uneasy, placed the coffee down and asked, "Mr. Harrison, is there anything else? I still have some documents to print."Kevin replied without looking up, "Go ahead."Aware of Kevin's reputation as one of the toughest people to please at Jardin Corporation, Susan hurried out, relieved to escape his scrutiny. She knew that a single mistake could mean a scolding or even dismissal.As Susan left, Kevin's voice halted her. "Have you contacted Ms. Dion yet?"Susan reported, "Yes, Mr. Harrison, as per your instructions. Currently, she's on a business trip. No one, aside from you, has seen her for a while. I tried ca

    Liam was standing in the rain, and though it hadn't been long, he was thoroughly drenched.Blake quickly pulled him close, her voice laced with concern. "Are you crazy? It's pouring rain! What if you catch a cold?"Liam's look was subdued, his face showing signs of fatigue. "I'm okay. This is for you; I didn't want you to have to come out in this weather."As Blake took in his forlorn appearance, her heart softened suddenly. 'Am I losing my mind?' she thought."Now you'll have to pay more attention to me, Blake... I was just so scared of losing you. I've put everything I have into getting you to agree to marry me; the idea of you walking away is unbearable."Overwhelmed with emotion, Blake locked eyes with him. "Did she teach you to say that too?" she asked, her hand moving on its own to brush away the raindrops from his hair.A maid nearby, observing the scene, rushed over with a blanket and an umbrella. However, Grace, fully grasping the gravity of the moment, halted her. Ackno

    Cecilia said, "It's fine. Let's give them a week. Rearrange the flight and all the plans for the trip. This is Blake's first time getting married and going abroad for honeymoon. I want to make sure she has a good time."Susan nodded. "Okay, Ms. Samford."Not long after Cecilia left, three editors who used to work for Olivia's company entered her office. All of them spoke in panic, "Ms. Blue, what should we do? Ms. Samford already knows everything. If the legal department finds out about it, will we go to jail?"Olivia remained calm as she said, "Don't panic. Just focus on your work.""But we got into this company through you. What if they say we got into this company through the back door and then fired us?"Olivia sat at her desk, supporting her forehead with her hands. She was obviously panicking. "Don't worry, I'll handle this."You guys can leave now."Olivia did not expect this matter to be exposed so soon. She wondered how Cecilia found out about it. 'Could it be that she'

    StartReading Literary was the last place Cecilia wanted to be. But she made an exception this time.Olivia had just finalized a cooperative copyright deal with another website company. Several editors from her own company were there at StartReading Literary. As she entered the office, she saw all the editors from StartReading Literary sitting upright, not daring to make a sound.She also saw her office door was wide open. She frowned as she walked into her office and was surprised to see an unexpected gust.Olivia put down the documents in her hand. "Ms. Samford, what brings you here?"With her legs crossed and Susan standing behind her, Cecilia stared at Olivia, who was in front of her.Cecilia sneered and stood up. She ran her fingers along the desk. "StartReading is actually the last place I want to be. I came here because I found out that you enjoy meddling in other people's affairs. Otherwise, you wouldn't even qualify to see me."Olivia instantly looked wary. She remained s

    Liam stood up. He watched as Blake, who looked weary, walked away. "Blake, what do you want me to do so you'll like me?"Blake did not stop walking. Instead, she took even bigger steps and left.She went to the Harper residence, which surprised everyone.Grace asked, "Blake? Why did you come back here? Where's Liam? Why didn't he come back with you?"Blake stuttered, unable to find the words. She just made up an excuse, saying, "It's nothing. I just wanted to come back."After Hannah and Yael left the wedding last night, they went back to the research institute.As for Simon, he went to the farm to manage the business.After Blake went to her room, Grace became worried. She followed her and saw her sitting with a blank expression in the room, not knowing what to do.When Blake saw Grace, she quickly adjusted her mood. "Grace, why are you here?""I came to check on you. Blake, what's wrong? Did you have a fight with Liam? You just had your wedding yesterday, and you're already

    The pregnancy test report came out fifteen minutes after Blake did the test. She was indeed pregnant. She was even seven weeks pregnant.Blake had indeed been involved with Kevin while in Northern Myanmar over a month ago.She held the medical report while standing bewildered in the cold hospital corridor. Lights shone through the floor-to-ceiling window onto her body, but all Blake felt was the cold, which made her hands and feet numb.She was lost in her thoughts. 'I'm really pregnant. What should I do with this baby? I want it to be born more than anyone else. But now, everything has changed. This child shouldn't come into this world.'She wandered in the corridor. Suddenly, she saw someone coming out of another gynecological room.She thought, 'Some things are just destined by fate. When I long to see him, even catching a glimpse of him in a dream feels like a luxury, an unattainable wish. But now, when I don't want to see him, it seems he appears everywhere I go.'Kevin supp

    Blake wondered, 'I'm now pregnant with Kevin's child. What should I do?'She woke up groggily when she felt someone carry her. She opened her heavy eyelids and asked, "What time is it now?"Liam responded, "It's four-thirty in the morning. It's still early; go back to sleep for a while more."Blake said in a hoarse voice, "I've made an appointment for an abortion at eight o'clock. Regardless of whether I'm really pregnant or not, I don't want to keep this child."She had thought about it all night and believed this was the best decision.Kevin was going to get engaged. Blake believed he would get married and Audrey would give birth to his children. There was simply no need for her to complicate things further.She thought, 'If I choose to be selfish and decide to keep this baby, and if people find out about it, my child will be treated as an illegitimate child. I don't even dare to imagine how badly the child will be treated.'If giving birth to the baby will bring it a lifetime

    Blake continued, "What about you, Liam? Do you mind?"If you do, you can choose to divorce me. After all, I've wronged you. No one wants to marry a woman who's carrying someone else's child."Liam stepped forward on the shattered cup and hugged her tightly. "I don't mind. Blake, I love you, including everything about you. I don't mind your past. I just want to start over with you. I didn't tell you about the pregnancy because I was selfish; I wanted to keep you by my side."Blake, your child is my child. I want to raise the baby with you."Don't leave me, okay?"Blake did not know why, but she was not surprised by her pregnancy. However, she felt that there were still some things that she could not let go of, though she was unsure what those were.She was not as calm as she had imagined.She thought about her past events. Then, she indifferently said, "Liam, I don't want this child. Since I'm prepared to be with you, I won't keep this child. It wouldn't be fair to you."Liam di

    On this romantic night, the moon was obscured by the clouds.Breathing heavily, Blake felt some pain in her abdomen. She asked to stop. "Liam, my stomach hurts. I think I'm going to have my period soon."Liam sobered up instantly. "I'll go get you some medicine."She peeked out from under the blanket as the bedside lamp turned on. She could clearly see Liam's naked upper body. Her face flushed as she averted her gaze. "It's fine. Just help me call the front desk and ask them to bring up a pack of sanitary pads. I'll go to the bathroom to deal with it."Liam replied, "Let's go to the hospital tomorrow for a check-up."Blake picked up her clothes from the floor and went to the bathroom. "It's okay. It's probably just my period."However, judging by the blood flowing out, it did not seem like menstrual blood to Blake. It looked like something else.Blake's voice came from the bathroom again. "I think we should go to the hospital."She sat on the toilet and watched the tall, slende

    Blake had no bridesmaids, so she returned to the hotel room alone. As she stepped out of the elevator and was ready to use the room key card in her hand to swipe and enter the room, she suddenly saw a figure appear from the corner of her eye.She stopped her action and looked at the person who had left the wedding earlier.At that moment, Blake felt her breath catch, but it was only fleeting. She then quickly regained her composure and averted her gaze. She asked, "Didn't you leave? Why are you still here?"Kevin replied, "Congratulations."Upon hearing his congratulations, Blake felt a mix of amusement and discomfort. "There's nothing to congratulate. If anything, I should congratulate you. You're soon to be the mayor's son-in-law. In the future, we won't belong in the same social class anymore."I'm tired and came back to rest. You should leave now before Liam comes up and sees you here."Don't look for me again. I don't want him to misunderstand."Kevin responded, "Audrey and
