In the Obstetrics and Gynecology ward, Briar was lying on a hospital bed, looking very anxious.

There were sufficient evidence and witnesses to charge her with stealing. She was currently on bail, pending trial. There were police officers outside the door watching over her.

In other words, if Renee refused to drop the case, Briar would go to jail for at least three years.

Although she did not have to stay in jail during the pregnancy and breastfeeding period, she would be after that.

More importantly, her life would be completely ruined once she was convicted of a criminal offense,

If she had known that Renee was such a tough opponent, she would have kept low and stayed far away from Renee!

Briar had tried calling Stefan many times, but he didn’t answer any of her calls. It was obvious that he did not want to talk to her. She did not know if he would even save her.

She had really made a mess of things this time!

At that moment, her attending physician came in. He closed the doo

    After the doctor left, Briar rubbed her belly, angry and disappointed. She said, "You should have done better. God gave you a chance to be born into the Hunts, but you actually have a genetic defect... You're gonna stop developing anyway, so don't blame me for being cruel!"What the doctor meant was obvious. Regardless of whether the baby was aborted or not, it would not survive.In that case, she would much rather let the baby die in a miscarriage so that she would not be held responsible.As for how the miscarriage would happen...Briar's eyes became poisonous. Didn't that bitch Renee despise her? In that case, it's completely possible for Renee to “lose control of her emotions” and kill her baby.When that happened, Stefan would definitely make the person who killed his dead brother's child pay. Briar would not even have to do anything else and Renee would die a miserable death.Thinking of that, a content smile crept onto Briar's face. Her touch on the belly became a lot gent

    Margaret came from a family that practiced medicine. She knew how to take care of pregnant women and also how to get rid of a pregnancy.However, due to moral considerations, she had never done such a cruel thing.But if it could help Renee and Stefan get back together, she would do it even if she would go to hell for it!"Ms. Desrosiers, are you sure? If you really don't want this baby, I can make a medicine for you to get rid of it without any pain. It won't have any impact on your fertility either," Margaret confirmed with Briar again.She would only do it if Briar truly wanted to abort the baby.She would not force Briar. After all, only a mother could decide the life and death of a baby. Others could only contribute their opinion at most."I'm sure!" Briar nodded earnestly and said, "I wish my child could be born into a loving family. I wish that his father not only loves him but also loves his mother. Otherwise, there's no happiness to speak of. Obviously, this child came a

    Margaret turned around and found Stefan standing at the door of the ward, staring at her coldly."Mr. Hunt, I..."She intended to explain herself, but the abortion medicine in her hand was still steaming hot. She could not immediately think of a good explanation.Briar hid behind Stefan, acting like a weak, helpless woman. She cried and said, "Margaret, I told you, I know I've done something wrong, so I promise I'll leave Stefan, but the baby is innocent...”"The baby is my life! I won't let anyone hurt it! Please go back and tell Ms. Everheart that if she has any grudge against me, she can take it out on me, but don't hurt my baby!”Briar's words made Margaret flush with anger. She said emotionally, "What's the meaning of this, Ms. Desrosiers? That's not what you said just now. Aborting the baby was your idea too. Why are you pretending to be the victim now? You're blatantly lying!""The one who's blatantly lying is you! I love my baby so much. How could I bear to abort it? You

    At Everheart Manor, Renee was sitting beside a window on the second floor. She had been staring out of the window for a long time, but she had not seen Margaret at all.She took out her phone and tried calling Margaret again, but her call still could not get through."That's weird. It's getting dark. Why isn't Margaret back yet? Where is she?"When she woke up this morning, Renee saw a note Margaret had left on the dining table, saying that she was going to take care of some personal matters and would be back soon. She told Renee not to worry.But an entire day had passed, and Margaret still had not come home. She could not even be contacted. Something was wrong!Renee was worried that Margaret might have run into trouble. Considering her recent situation, many people were waiting for an opportunity to get back at her.Seeing that the sun was about to set, Renee could not sit still any longer. She grabbed a jacket and went out to look for Margaret.The moment she stepped outside

    "It's not important."Stefan did not answer.Some secrets he must carry to the grave—for the good of everyone."You just have to know that my relationship with her is not like what you think. You don't have to make her life hell out of jealousy.""Hahaha!" That made Renee laugh. She was laughing at the man's arrogance, as well as his cruelty.How could a man say such a shameless thing to his ex-wife?Briar was obviously the one who had done horrible things, but since the beginning of the conversation, he had been defending Briar and making Renee out to be the bad guy instead!"You're really funny, Stefan. You think I'm sending Briar to jail because I love you, and I'm jealous that he took you away from me?""Isn't that the case?" Stefan asked coldly.He believed that, although he had little experience in love, he had met a lot of women, so he could tell women's intentions towards him."No, no, it has nothing to do with you. I'm just petty, and I always get my revenge. Briar r

    Upon hearing that, Renee's face instantly changed. She questioned him, "So it was you... what have you done to Margaret?""You should ask your nanny what she did instead."Stefan's expression was still extremely dark. He said coldly to the emotional Renee, "Your nanny tried to force Briar to get an abortion. Are you gonna tell me you know nothing about it?"He paused for a moment and continued, “Let's each take a step back. I'll let Margaret go, and you let Briar go.”Stefan felt he was being generous enough to Renee.Briar's child was his brother's only descendant in the world. If it had been someone else doing what Margaret had done, Stefan would have made sure that person disappeared without a trace!"Impossible!" Renee shook her head and said firmly, “I know Margaret very well. She wouldn't do such a thing! As for me... although I can't wait to see Briar go to prison, I never thought of harming her child. Even if a pregnant woman is found guilty, she won't be put into prison

    Renee and Zack walked out of the detention center.Renee could hardly wait to ask Zack, "You said that there's a way to clear Margaret's name and also give Briar Desrosiers a heavier punishment? What exactly do I have to do?""It's actually quite simple." Zack said, "If Margaret isn't lying, then her subjective motivation to harm Briar cannot be established, and it naturally wouldn't constitute a criminal offense. In that case, she can even sue Briar for defamation.“If Margaret is in a bad health condition during this period, and it so happens that Briar's slander causes her emotional trauma, then Briar can also be charged with a criminal offense. Under the criminal law, the penalty for emotional trauma is no less severe than physical trauma."Renee listened very attentively to every word he said. She instantly asked, "So, as long as I can find a way to prove that Margaret didn't lie or that Briar lied, we can win the case?""Correct!" Zack continued, "My suggestion is to find ev

    Renee pointed to the surveillance camera on the wall and said, "No secret stays buried forever. Thank god the entire process of your heinous crime was recorded."Briar was momentarily stunned, and then she burst out laughing. She said smugly, "That's the evidence you have? The surveillance footage? Go ahead and take it to court. We'll see who the judge finds guilty."Renee didn’t expect Briar to be so smug. She guessed Briar must have dealt with the surveillance footage already.However, this would not be a problem for Renee and her amazing hacking skills.It did not matter if Briar had deleted or destroyed the surveillance footage. As long as it once existed, Renee could recover it in minutes."Since you're so confident, let's see what happens in the trial three days from now."After saying that, Renee turned around gracefully and left.In three days, everything would be over.She swore she would make Briar pay a heavy price for her ignorance and wickedness!When she stepped

    Livid, Mateo pulled the trigger without hesitation. However, he moved the gun less than an inch. The bullet passed by Liam's ear and hit an orange behind him.The fruit immediately blew up, its juices splashing on Liam's face."Aaaah!" Amber, terrified, trembled. Her eyes turned red, and she hurriedly tried to plead with Mateo. "Matt, cool it! Aren't you and Liam friends? You guys drank and chatted together in the past. You were so close to each other. How could you do this to him? Hurry up and put the gun away! If it goes off accidentally, it'll be over!"However, Mateo ignored her. His eyes were red as he glared at Liam. "Did you see the orange behind you? Let go of her now! If not, I'll blow up your head just like I did to that orange!""Is that all you got?" Liam taunted. He refused to let Amber go. He whispered to Amber, "Watch well. If he shoots me today, promise me not to marry such a man. I can use my life to knock some sense into you.""No!" Amber shook her head. Liam

    "What bad timing!" Mateo's indifferent voice came from behind Amber.Amber turned around and saw Mateo with a team of armed soldiers. Terrified, she quickly put some distance between her and Liam. She stammered an explanation. "Matt… It's not what you think. Liam and I came here to look for people. Ms. Everheart and Ms. Osborne are gone. Liam couldn't find them and guessed they might be in the orchard. He wasn't familiar with the orchard and asked me to guide him."Mateo looked livid, but still cracked a gentle smile. "Silly, you don't have to be scared. I know you're prudent. He must have forced you to come here. I don't blame you."He extended his hand and beckoned Amber toward him. "Come here. You're my fiancee. You should stand with me.""I…" Amber bit her lip—Mateo was right. She kept her head low, about to walk to him.But in the next second, Liam firmly grabbed her wrist. "You can't go!" Liam held Amber's wrist tightly and shot Mateo a challenging look."When did Amb

    Liam could only see through Amber's true thoughts if she showed her true self to him. "No, I do like you. I love you the most, and I want to marry you. But you neither like me nor want to marry me. You love freedom and Ms. Everheart. You love and yearn for the kind of life ordinary people like. So, I could only choose to give you up and let you get what you want. What else do you want me to do?" Amber was generally shy and reserved, but when Liam drove her anxious, she rambled a lot."Whatever I want is my business. You don't need to sacrifice yourself to grant my wish!" Liam held Amber's shoulders, acting like a kind senior. He tried to persuade her in earnest. "Marriage isn't a joke. Think it through. Do you like and know Mateo well? You won't be happy after marrying him, given the savage culture around here. And can you divorce him easily?""Matt will be nice to me. Even if he changes his mind, he'll still be nice to me because…my father is Benjamin," Amber replied.She chose

    Being a sensitive woman, Amber immediately noticed Liam's displeasure. She kept her head lower and explained carefully, "I want a chance to choose again… I want to choose another person to fall in love with. You know that Matt and I grew up together. We're childhood friends. He likes me and always protects me without asking for anything back. I feel that it's happier to marry a person who loves me instead of marrying someone far beyond my reach."For the first time, she expressed the exhaustion she felt from her relationship with Liam. She no longer wanted to be the one who kept fawning over him. She wanted to give up and relax by being the one who was loved and adored in a relationship."Tsk!" Liam snorted arrogantly. "You don't know Mateo. He's not a nice guy. He's just good at pretending. Maybe it's just his means to get what he wants, but you assume that he loves and wants to protect you."Liam hadn't made that statement to purposely put Mateo down. After standing against Mate

    Liam focused on holding Amber's hand and leading her through the orange grove. At the same time, he carefully scanned the ground and trees to find any related clues left by Renee and Leia."I don't care what others say, because I didn't do anything wrong," he said indifferently. "I hope you'll feel the same. I don't think you need to stop being my friend after choosing to marry Mateo. Am I not the friend you like the most?""That's different," Amber said.She followed Liam passively. At first, she couldn't adapt to it. After walking briefly, she felt better and found it easier to do. "Although I'm not good at my studies, I know men and women should keep a polite distance. You can't take my hand and sound righteous at the same time," she mumbled."Why not?" Liam retorted firmly. "When I was young, I always held my sister's hand wherever we went. I'm holding your hand because this fog is thick and the ground is slippery. I'm afraid of being separated from you. Just walk with me. St

    Liam walked ahead of Amber, then turned to glance at her. He faked a smile and asked, "What's the matter? Are you worried that I might take advantage of you?" "No, of course not!" Amber quickly shook her head and pushed her scarf up. It had fallen a little. "I just find it improper," she answered softly.She looked like a typical woman from Southeast Aeos, petite and with a small face. Her skin was tanned, and her facial features weren't very distinct. She was charming and reserved, exuding a girlish pureness. She had put on her country's special traditional clothes. The thick clothes, embroidered with various patterns, wrapped around her petite body and gave her an exotic impression. From afar, she appeared like a colorful oil painting. "Hey, it's not improper. If I wanted to do anything to you, I would've done that long ago. I don't have to wait until now." Liam sounded relaxed and prudent to ease Amber's anxiety."Don't worry. I've always regarded you as my younger siste

    Amber hurriedly turned Liam down. "You can't help with my affairs. I can handle it.""Well, tell me why I can't help you," Liam pressed. "I… I want to sew a wedding gown. And there are a lot of details that I need to add." Amber became competitive for no reason, and added stubbornly, "Your words aren't absolute. Yes, your business is important, but so is mine!""Oh, you want to sew a wedding gown. I can help you with that…" Liam said, relaxed. "Maybe I didn't get to tell you that I went to a small country in Southeast Aeos when I traveled around the world. I got to know a great sewing master. The pictures he sewed looked real like paintings! I found them interesting, so I learned from him. My sewing skills are probably better than yours. I can help you with that.""Really? You can sew?" Amber was full of surprise and admiration. Her eyes lit up. "I can't sew well. I want to learn from a great master too! If you can do it, can you teach me?""Of course!" Liam promised. "Can you he

    "Uh…" Amber looked like she was being put in a difficult position. She found it impudent for a man and a woman to be alone in the dense orchard at night. "What's wrong? Is it inconvenient?" Liam frowned, puzzled. He felt that Amber was purposely avoiding him after expressing her desire not to marry him and making Mateo her groom instead.Before, she would always put on her favorite dress and stand at the entrance of the fort, looking eager no matter how late Liam and Benjamin returned from their work.Usually, she would carry a small bamboo basket containing the tea she brewed and dessert or food she had painstakingly prepared. When Liam returned, she would excitedly welcome him and inquire after him. Lately, she no longer did that. When Liam occasionally ran into her in the fort, she would bow indifferently at him and quickly brush past him as if they were merely acquaintances. They seemed distant.Honestly, Liam found it unfamiliar. He couldn't get used to the fact that Amber

    "I don't know. Why don't you ask the guards to get us some fried chicken and French fries? Didn't Mateo say that we can ask the guards for food?" Renee said.Leia's anxiety eased as she relaxed. She turned around and got out of bed, then gestured at the guard and ordered quite a lot of food. Meanwhile, Liam accompanied Benjamin to West River in the morning for a negotiation that yielded a good result. Benjamin's attitude had improved. He didn't demand an explanation from Liam about the affairs between Liam and Amber, and didn't ask about Renee or Leia either. Liam was delighted. He carried the unique desserts he had bought at the local market for Renee and Leia to enjoy. Upon arrival, he found that they were not in the room. "Weird. Where did they go?" Liam looked around, but found no sign of Renee and Leia. He casually asked a servant, but the servant stammered and insisted on not knowing anything. Anxious, Liam kept looking for them in the fort. Coincidentally, he ran into
