Lucy was extremely anxious. She wanted to get up, but she couldn't even move. This was the first time she had felt this frustrated."Don't worry about it, Mrs. Ripley. I know who Ms. Lane is. She used to be the college student that the Ripley family sponsored. She was also…" Walter didn't finish his sentence. He paused a little before continuing, "Ms. Lane might be wicked, but she probably wouldn't dare lay a finger on Mr. Ripley."Moreover, she's one of the Eberhards now. She will be dragging her entire family down with her if she dares to do something to him."Miles chimed in, "He's right. Tobias is a trained fighter. Anna might be reckless, but she wouldn't dare do anything out of line to him."Lucy had an ominous feeling about it. "But…"The sinking feeling in her gut grew more intense. "I can't shake the feeling that something bad is going to happen. "It's because I asked Gale if Anna had sent him to kill me after I was pushed down the cliff. He might not have answered my
Tobias went to the place where Anna had asked to meet him. It was a luxurious restaurant, and they were sitting in a deluxe private room. The soundproofing there was excellent.Anna smiled sweetly when she saw him. "You're here, Tobe. I ordered you some of your favorite dishes."Tobias looked at the table full of delicious food, but he didn't have any appetite.He sat down and got straight to the point. "I didn't come here to have dinner with you. I'm here to ask you some questions."Anna was twisted and wicked on the inside, but she chuckled dryly."We rarely have dinner together, Tobe. Why are you interrogating me like a criminal? Can't it wait until after the meal?" Anna acted cute and pitiful with him.Then, she took a glass of wine and asked, "Why don't we have some drinks first?"Tobias pushed it away and said coldly, "Would you be in the mood for wine if your family had been the ones in the emergency room?"Anna was stumped. She didn't respond until after a brief moment.
Tobias felt like he had lost consciousness. However, he could still hear everything the people around him were saying. He wanted to move his body, but he simply couldn't.He felt someone touching him as well as something being placed on his face. It made him feel wildly uncomfortable.He frowned in displeasure. He had clearly passed out, but he was brimming with such unbridled rage and animosity.A man walked over from a dark corner of the lounge.He asked in a puzzled tone, "I didn't mean to overhear your conversation, but I did. This man said you're wicked and put his grandparents in harm's way. "Is this his delusional disorder acting up? Or, are you deceiving me and using me to do something morally questionable, Ms. Anna?"Anna adopted a pitiful expression and said tearfully, "How could you say that about me, Dr. Turner? You know my husband was brainwashed and has delusional disorder."He must've said what he said earlier because the she-devil brainwashed him. After all, we
Faith comforted her and said, "Don't worry about it, Lucy. Anna might be a wicked, but there's nothing she could do to Tobias. She's no match for him at all!"Lucy responded, "We have to keep our guards up around people. It'll be too late to regret it if something does happen."She was filled with fear and worry.…An hour later, Ian exited the lounge. Anna approached him and asked, "How did it go with my husband, Dr. Turner?"Anna called Tobias her husband as if she were used to doing it all the time. She was so shameless!"Your husband has a stubborn will. A single session won't be able to consolidate his mind. It'll take multiple hypnosis sessions to stabilize him."Anna was conflicted. "How many sessions will it take?""His mind is strong and unbending. It's going to take more than ten sessions to correct his inner thoughts."Ten sessions? She couldn't wait that long!Anna thanked Ian. "Thanks, Dr. Turner. I'll transfer the payment to you, and continue to bring him to you
"I love you too much, Tobe. I just have to make you mine. That's why I drugged you. I didn't do anything wrong. I just wanted to have you for myself…"Anna saw that Tobias had woken up. She pretended to be vulnerable and cried immediately."You shouldn't have let that homewrecker seduce you. You didn't even look at me properly all this while. I wouldn't have done something like this if you were a little nicer to me.""Silence!" Tobias got up and put his clothes on swiftly. He looked at her coldly. "You set me up. Are you still trying to make up an excuse for it?" He scoffed and said harshly, "From here on out, you're going to know what it feels like to live in hell."Then, he turned and left. This time, Anna didn't give chase to him. After all, she had achieved what she had set out to do.Meanwhile, Miles said in a shocked tone, "What on earth happened, Tobe? Did I just hear her saying she drugged you?"Tobias nodded. "I didn't think she'd be this bold."Miles responded embarr
Lucy was bored from lying in bed the whole time. Every inch of her body ached. Faith saw that Lucy was in pain and suggested, "How about I help you to the wheelchair and take you out for a stroll?"Lucy nodded. "Alright. Thank you, Faith.""There's no need to thank me. We're besties. It's only right that I look after you. You don't exactly have the best of luck, either. "You just had a miscarriage and didn't even have the time to recover from it before you suffered bone fractures on all of your limbs. "You're beautiful and tough, but life hasn't been easy on you. Also, Anna is no match for you at all. You should've taught her a lesson!"Lucy sighed and asked, "Am I supposed to back every one of my love rivals into a corner? Besides, Tobias doesn't like her. So, why should I waste my effort on her? "I can't be bothered with her if she doesn't hurt the people around me.""I guess you're right."Faith helped her down the bed and onto the wheelchair. "I'll give you a massage."
Two policemen dragged Rosa and Martin over. Both of them had never seen such a spectacle before. They were so frightened that they came close to peeing their pants."Isn't that Mrs. Ripley's parents?"Tobias explained, "These people aren't my wife's biological parents at all." Then, he turned to them and said, "I can consider letting you two off easy if you tell the truth now."Martin was seized with such fear that his legs were shaking. Even Rosa was also very frightened. She said in a trembling voice, "Someone found us and asked us to shoot a video before uploading it online. They that that we would then have a daughter from a wealthy family and lead wealthy lives ourselves."The scene erupted in uproar.Tobias asked, "Is the person you mentioned a man or a woman? Do you have a name?""A man hired us. He had his face covered, so we didn't get a good look at how him. We don't know his name, either."A man?Did Anna have an accomplice?Tobias snorted coldly. "Both of these p
Emily received a text from Lucy just then. Lucy had given her 30 minutes to investigate the accident Howard had been in at Ripley Residence. Once she read the text, she almost jumped with joy. "Oh my god! Ms. Lucy is finally putting my skills to the test and letting me prove what I'm capable of to her!Not long after, Emily arrived at Ripley Residence. At the same time, Miles and his team of police officers reached the scene as well. It just so happened that both of them met each other at the entrance. Walter greeted Miles, "Hello, Mr. Chadwick. Mr. Ripley told me you'd be here to search for evidence."Miles nodded before laying his eyes on Emily. She looked very mature and unwelcoming. "Who might you be?""Hi, I'm Emily Simpson. My mentor asked me to search for evidence here."When Walter heard that, he turned to her and said, "Oh. Mrs. Ripley also told me about you. Please, do what you have to do, everyone."Miles asked curiously, "Mentor? Is Lucy your mentor?"Emily snor
