The Wrong Woman Chapter 933
Candice shook her head.As Elio looked at her back, he clenched his fists to suppress his emotions. His eyes reddened and his heart ached.Was his impending happiness about to be shattered? He was starting to panic.Mervyn said earnestly, "Candice, I really don't want you to be deceived by him."This was the same thing Josie had tried to tell her.Her curiosity about how Elio had deceived her grew stronger. "Then tell me, what did he do?"Just as Mervyn was about to speak, Elio walked over and grabbed Candice's hand. He said anxiously, "Candice, I'll drop you at work. You're going to be late."Mervyn pushed Elio away. He yelled, "Stop pretending! Are you scared now? Why weren't you scared when you were deceiving Candice?"Elio angrily growled, "What did I deceive her about?"Mervyn pushed Candice aside and rushed forward to grab Elio by the collar. He growled through gritted teeth, "Don't think I don't know about your dirty tricks. I've investigated everything."In the year o

Candice gazed at Elio with teary eyes as she waited for his answer.Elio felt very guilty. As he looked at her forlornly, he said in a low voice, "Everything Mervyn said is true."Candice was shocked. She demanded a reason from him because she couldn't believe it.Elio clenched his fists to suppress his emotions.Mervyn walked over and grabbed Candice's wrist. As he was about to leave, he said, "Let's go. There's nothing more to say to him."Although Candice was still in shock, she let herself be dragged away by Mervyn.Watching the woman he was about to marry left in front of him, Elio was heartbroken. He wondered how could someone as pure and kind as Candice ever understand or forgive his past actions?"He walked to the sofa and sat on it. He leaned back against the sofa, looking up at the ceiling. He used his arms to cover his eyes as if to block out the sorrow.He was suffering from a mixture of sadness, loneliness, and heartbreak.In just a few days, he went from having

After getting out of the car, Candice strode toward the villa.Mervyn got out of the car as well and chased after her.Candice quickly ran into the villa. She slammed the door shut and locked it.Mervyn banged on the door from outside.Candice didn't open the door but slowly walked into the house.Hearing the commotion, Elio lowered his arm and looked toward the entrance.He hadn't expected Candice to come back. His sorrowful eyes showed a glimmer of hope. He sat up straight and stared at her with teary eyes.At that moment, the knocking outside ceased.Candice stood before him and looked down at Elio who was seated on the sofa. She said, "Mervyn said you've coveted me for a long time. Is that true?"Elio nodded reluctantly.Candice nervously clenched her fists. She asked, "Do you know what 'covet' means?"Elio replied, "Yes, I know. It means desiring something that doesn't belong to you."Candice asked sadly, "Why can't you use a different word? For example, you can say yo

If Candice didn't love Elio, all these things would be unforgivable offenses.In Elio's heart, he didn't know about her love.But the truth was, she loved Elio very much.In her eyes, the wrongs Elio had done were just because of his deep love and his jealousy of her closeness to Mervyn.Although they were all bad deeds, she couldn't bring herself to hate him. In fact, she felt somewhat moved.Elio hugged Candice tightly because he was very happy that Candice had chosen him.He had always loved her so cautiously.After a while, Candice pushed Elio away and looked up at him. She said, "Mervyn is still waiting outside. He won't leave unless I talk to him."Elio said nervously, "Let's talk to him together."Candice knew Mervyn too well. If Elio were there, Mervyn would act impulsively and even fight Elio. It was impossible for them to have a calm conversation. "I'll go talk to him first," Candice said. Then, she let go of his hand and freed herself from Elio's embrace.Elio gr

Mervyn's eyes reddened with anger as he yelled at Candice, "Candice, can you wake up from your love-struck haze? Elio is not suitable for you, and you will regret this sooner or later!""Whether he's suitable or not, I'll judge for myself, but I'll never regret it because this is my own choice," Candice responded firmly.Mervyn was heartbroken.Back at the Morrison Residence, Candice left Mervyn alone in the living room and quickly went upstairs.With nothing else to do, Mervyn went home.That evening, Candice expressed her thoughts to her grandparents and parents."I want to move in with Elio."Her grandparents were against the idea, while Sienna and Daniel respected her decision.Candice explained, "Elio and I have very little time together. If we don't build a stronger bond before marriage, how can we maintain a long-lasting marriage?"Her grandparents were not close-minded. They were just reluctant to let her go.She continued, "Besides, Josie likes Elio. Her aunt has bee

When Candice heard Elio say her name, she was surprised. She put down her hands and leaned close to him, asking, "How did you know it was me?"The moment Elio saw Candice, his stern face instantly relaxed. He gradually smiled as he replied, "I know it was you the moment I touched the back of your hand."Candice looked at the back of her hand, puzzled.Elio smiled gently. He would never guess anyone else except for her.Candice stood up then walked around the sofa and sat down opposite Elio.Sean greeted her politely, "Hello, Ms. Morrison."Candice responded, "Hello, Mr. Lowe."Elio waved his hand at Sean, signaling him to leave.Sean put the clothes in the laundry room before leaving the villa.As soon as the door closed, Elio leaned forward and softly asked, "When did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me in advance? Have you had dinner? Are you hungry?"Candice was momentarily overwhelmed by his barrage of questions.She felt like discussing the important matter, so she sat u

"But…" Candice hesitated.Elio nervously asked, "But what?"Candice's face grew even redder and her body became warmer. She shyly rested her head on his chest and said, "I'm afraid of getting pregnant before marriage."Elio couldn't help but laugh. He just tightly held her in his arms.She looked so shy revealing it that it made Elio feel a bit embarrassed too.They just hugged each other quietly for a while without saying anything.After a moment, they sat on the sofa. As Candice nestled in Elio's arms, she browsed her phone to order takeout.Since neither of them could cook and it was too late to ask the chef to come over, they decided to make do with something simple.Elio wanted to order from a highly-rated restaurant, but Candice refused.Growing up, her family had strictly controlled her diet and didn't let her eat any food that was unhealthy.Elio was also the same.Candice was worried that Elio might be as strict as her family, so she asked cautiously, "Should we hav

Elio felt increasingly pleased watching Candice's satisfied expression.He originally didn't intend to have dinner, but now with Candice's company, he had an appetite to eat.They drank beer, ate fried chicken, and had a barbecue together.After two cans of beer, Candice was already tipsy, making her eyes glazed and her speech incoherent.Elio was used to strong liquor, so these beers had no effect on him.He walked over to her and carried her upstairs.As Candice caressed his head, she murmured, "Elio, from now on, I'll protect you. I won't let anyone hurt you."Elio smiled wryly. He said, "Candice, you shouldn't drink. Don't drink anymore."Leaning against his shoulder, she murmured, "Elio, why don't you like me?"Elio gently placed her on the master bedroom's large bed. After removing her shoes, he covered her with a blanket. He responded to her drunken words, "I do like you."With her eyes closed, Candice pouted as if about to cry. She asked, "Why don't you like me?"Eli

Jasper became concerned as Imogen placed her hand over her heart. He asked, "Are you experiencing any chest pains? Have you consulted a doctor? I can take you for a check-up."Imogen reassured him, gently holding his arm. "Jasper, I'm fine. I'm just trying to figure out how to balance my future family and career."Jasper smiled knowingly, gently patting her head before pulling her into an embrace. He recognized her uniqueness—her drive to pursue her career and showcase her skills and talents. The thought of being a stay-at-home mother or merely a trophy wife held no appeal for her whatsoever.Holding her close, Jasper murmured, "Imogen, have you forgotten about your husband's financial prowess?"Imogen couldn't suppress a chuckle.Jasper reassured her of his commitment, "As long as you're on board, I can arrange a driver to drive you to work, an assistant to handle all your tasks, and you won't have to worry about anything. When you return home, there will be maids and me to ens

After returning from her journey across the globe, Imogen headed straight to the hospital. During her travels, she started noticing subtle changes in her body—nausea, fatigue, and a stronger need for rest. Her hunch was confirmed when tests revealed she was pregnant.She felt a blend of anticipation and apprehension. The idea of being pregnant raised thoughts of focusing on family life and raising children. Yet, she valued her career and was steadily demonstrating her skills. She wasn't ready to give it up just yet.When Imogen arrived home and stepped through the front door, she found Gregory and Carol were there. They had just returned from their trip as well, bringing back gifts. "Hi, Mom, Dad," Imogen greeted them.Still excited about their travels, Gregory and Carol eagerly recounted their adventures to Jasper.When Jasper heard Imogen's voice, he quickly stood and walked over to her, taking her hand. "Imogen, I woke up early and didn't see you around. Where did you go?"

Jasper thought the idea was brilliant and agreed, "Let's plan our route and leave next week."Imogen gently pushed him back, her hands on his chest. "Sure, but let me get up first. We'll map out our journey, set a schedule, and go on a trip for our wedding."Jasper took her wrists and lifted them above the pillow. "Let's discuss this tomorrow. I have some pressing matters to attend to at the moment."Imogen was about to respond when Jasper leaned in and kissed her deeply. Their lips intertwined with passion.…A week later, Imogen received another call from Yulia's lawyer, who conveyed Yulia's apologies and expressed her desire for Imogen's forgiveness. Yulia also requested Imogen to intervene with Nathan on her behalf.Imogen decided to ignore the request. She believed in the fairness of the law. It reminded her of Zoey, who had fraudulently claimed her degree and ended up in prison at Jasper's behest.As for Yulia, she had orchestrated attacks on Gregory, caused Carol to lose

Imogen's heart raced as she slowly hugged Jasper, her voice bashful yet resolute. "Jasper, you'll always have a place in my heart."Jasper tensed slightly, his senses on high alert. He met her eyes. A glint of anticipation sparked in his gaze as he eagerly murmured, "Say it one more time. Say it—""I love you, Jasper," Imogen said gently.Jasper's eyes immediately filled with tears as he held Imogen tightly, his body shaking. Overwhelmed by emotion, he could only whisper her name into her ear. "Imogen… Imogen…""Do you love me?" Imogen asked, her voice tinged with shyness.Jasper frowned. "I do love you. Haven't you always known?""I still want to hear it," Imogen said."I love you. I love you with all my heart," Jasper declared, gazing at her with intense passion and unwavering resolve.Feeling a bit stiff from his tight hug, Imogen gently pushed him away. "I love you, too, but I must get up and go to work.""Not today," Jasper responded, scooping and carrying her back to bed

"If it's a gift, why not accept it?" Mila whispered.Gregory quickly took the check, looking unsure of his next move.Once his money was accepted, Oakley assumed the issue was settled. He took Yulia's hand and began to leave the ward, saying, "Well, I'll leave with Yulia for now."Still feeling resentful, Yulia glanced back and shot Imogen a glare as they departed.The ward fell silent. Feeling uneasy, Gregory and Carol exchanged anxious glances."Nate, we can't go easy on them," Mila whispered.Nathan smiled knowingly. He took Mila's hand, gently caressed it, and said quietly, "Don't worry. I'll ensure our in-laws get the justice they deserve."Mila nodded, feeling reassured. Gregory and Carol, who were listening nearby, felt deeply moved and grateful.Since Gregory was injured and confined to bed, the meeting between Jasper's and Imogen's parents ended earlier than expected. After saying goodbye to their parents, Jasper and Imogen headed home. On their way home, Jasper felt

Yulia was renowned for her boldness and strong-willed nature. Aware of Oakley's wealth, influence, and dual reputation in legal and illicit circles, she feared no one and held a contemptuous attitude toward others, including senior military figures."You need to apologize to Ms. Imogen immediately," Oakley whispered urgently.Pointing at Imogen, Yulia muttered irritably, "Her? Oh, please! If anyone owes an apology, it's her to me."Oakley wiped his forehead nervously, trembling with anxiety. Everyone's expressions around them darkened visibly. Jasper suppressed his anger; his hands clenched into fists.Before he could speak, Yulia grumbled, "Jay, you blocked me before understanding everything, and then you terminated our contract. That's just too much."Mila couldn't shake her worry for Jasper. If he couldn't manage his relationship with Yulia appropriately, it could severely impact his marriage. Concerned that he might not handle it well, Mila intervened. "Ms. Gibson, please resp

Carol no longer believed the portrayal of wealthy women on television.Jasper took Imogen's hand, and they sat down on the couch together, feeling anxious. It was their parents' first meeting, and the hospital setting added to the tension. If things went wrong and their relationship soured, their future would look bleak.Imogen was particularly anxious. Her palms were growing clammy. Jasper pulled out a tissue and gently wiped her palms before reassuringly saying, "There's no need to be nervous. My parents are easygoing."Offering an awkward smile, Imogen teased him, whispering, "You seem more nervous than I am, don't you think?"Jasper chuckled but offered no reply. Dealing with Gregory and Carol was sure to be a bit daunting.Typically reserved around strangers, Nathan found it difficult to start a conversation at that moment. Meanwhile, Gregory and Carol felt apprehensive and cautious, worried that any misstep could upset the Morrisons and cause problems for Imogen.Sensing th

Mila approached them with a bouquet, smiling. "Yes, we're in the right place. We've come to visit you, our in-laws."The term "in-laws" caught Gregory off guard as he lay in the bed. Despite his injuries, he quickly propped himself up, struggling to sit upright. Carol, equally surprised, cautiously accepted the gift from Nathan's outstretched hands.Jasper and Imogen took the next elevator, so they hadn't reached the ward yet.Nathan quickly set his things down and hurried over, gently placing a reassuring hand on Gregory's shoulder. "You're injured. Don't get up. Just lie down and rest.""General Morrison, I…" Gregory's voice faltered in distress.Carol's hands trembled uncontrollably as she glanced nervously at Mila, worried that Mila and Nathan had overheard her argument with Gregory.Nathan spoke in a gentle tone, "Please, don't call me General Morrison. It sounds too formal. You both are older than me. Just call me Nathan, and I'll call you two by name in return."Mila came

In the hospital ward, Gregory had been asleep for over an hour when the nurse woke him to change his medication.After the change, Carol peeled an orange for him to eat. They shared the segments, chatting idly."Imogen really picked a good husband. Even these oranges he bought are unusually sweet," Carol said, marveling at the oranges. Gregory glanced at the orange and said, "They must be expensive.""Yes, they're sold by the piece in big supermarkets. Also, they're more expensive than beef and lamb," Carol said before eating another sweet segment.Gregory pondered for a moment. Then he curiously asked, "Someone ruined our house's floor. Do you think Jasper would help us repair it?"Carol shot him a look and replied, "Listen, don't burden Imogen with this. Don't even bring it up.""Why would it burden Imogen? With Jasper's wealth, this is nothing.""Enough," Carol snapped. "That's his business. No matter how poor we are, we shouldn't ask for what isn't ours." "You're too stu
