Azure left without drinking her coffee after exchanging numbers with Daniella. Daniella became more interested as she watched Azure walk away. She decided to teach Paige a lesson for gloating over her misfortune. Paige was also Caroline's best friend.'Caroline won't be happy if I seek revenge against Paige. She took everything from me, so why should I go easy on her?' she thought.Daniella suddenly came up with a plan. She figured out how to teach Paige a lesson.-After her physical examination, Azure headed to the Prices.She ran into Alex, who was leaving the house angrily.Azure quickly asked, "Alex, why are you so upset?"Alex glanced at her and replied, "Nothing. I'm leaving!"He got into the car and drove off.Azure thought for a moment and then entered the villa.Rebecca was sitting on the living room sofa, breathing heavily.Azure approached Rebecca and asked with concern, "Did you and Alex have an argument again, Mrs. Price?"Tears welled up in Rebecca's eyes a
Caroline and Paige took the elevator and walked out of the outpatient building. All of a sudden, a figure blocked their path. They looked over abruptly, and the person slapped Paige's face before they could respond to the situation. Caroline's eyes widened in shock, and she hastily pulled Paige to stand behind her. She glared at Rebecca and said sternly, "What are you doing?!""What am I doing? Why don't you ask your friend what sort of shady things she has been doing behind my son's back!" Rebecca scoffed and pointed at Paige. She spoke in a loud yet sharp voice that drew the attention of passersby. Rebecca's slap and scolding infuriated Paige, especially considering her pregnancy.Paige pulled back Caroline and snarled, "How dare you hit me?!"Rebecca said, "I hit you because you're pregnant with someone else's child, yet you put it on my son! My son will never be the scapegoat!"Paige was stunned. "I'm pregnant with someone else's child? How dare you make baseless ac
Paige defended him, "Don't blame him! His mother's always been difficult. He must've tried his best!"Paige hugged Caroline tightly, resting her head on Caroline's abdomen. "My face hurts, Carol. Can you check if it's swollen?"Caroline chuckled and gently touched Paige's warm cheek. "You're still worried about your looks at a time like this?"Paige replied, "I just want to be pretty. Thank you for standing up for me earlier."Caroline reassured her, "You're being silly, Paige. I did what was right."-After leaving the Prices, Alex went to meet Evan. He lay on the sofa of his office, staring at the ceiling with despair.Evan asked, "What's troubling you now? You think MK is a sanctuary for your problems?"Alex weakly confessed, "I had a fight with my mother."Focused on his documents, Evan nonchalantly said, "If it's about Paige, it's expected."Alex sat up and retorted, "You shouldn't downplay this, Evan. You should be more supportive."The office door suddenly swung open,
[What does she mean by girls who go to bars are considered immodest?][How dare she hit a pregnant woman?! Has she no shame?][Fuck! Why didn't she ask her son about his baby instead of her daughter-in-law?][She's from one of the top three influential families of Angelbay! This is embarrassing!][TYC's CEO has a good character, so her friend is definitely not that kind of person. I support them!]-Caroline was relieved to see the positive comments online. Alex soon arrived, accompanied by Evan and Lucas. Caroline and Paige were astonished by the presence of the three men and exchanged glances.Alex hurried to Paige and gently cupped her face with a pained expression. "Does it still hurt, Paige?"Paige shook her head. "Not anymore...""I'm sorry I couldn't protect you. My mother caused trouble for you," Alex said, his voice heavy with guilt.Paige patted his hand and smiled. "It's alright. I know you've been trying your best."Caroline's unease faded as she witnessed th
Daniella's phone lit up with a flurry of text messages as soon as she powered it on. They were all from Neil. She began to read them one by one.Neil: [I can save you, but you have to do three things for me.]Neil: [First, find a way to obtain evidence of Draco's attempt to murder me.]Neil: [Second, figure out how to get Bernard to come with you. I need to take down Bernard for the best shot at toppling Draco.]Neil: [Third, tell me Draco''s plan and method to murder me immediately so I can plan my countermeasure.]Daniella quickly replied.Daniella: [I need help. No one can know about this phone. If possible, plant recording devices in his study."After Eira coerced Neil into drinking juice, he responded to Daniella's message.Neil: [Leave it to me. I'll update you when it's done.]Daniella felt a wave of relief wash over her. 'I'm going to send these people to hell one by one next!' she thought.-The following morning, Alex received a summons to meet Evan at MK.Alex wa
Evan walked over and gave two serious glances. "Even though the quality is slightly lower than your previous antique collection, it's still pretty good."Franklin sighed. "You're right… There are things that won't appeal to everyone, even if they're of good quality."Evan asked, "What are you insinuating, Mr. Price?"Franklin put down his brush and motioned for Evan to sit on the sofa. He poured a cup of coffee for Evan and said, "Evan, you're here to talk about the girl, right?""Yes, Alex loves her a lot," Evan replied."Can love last a lifetime? It's just a momentary burst of enthusiasm for now," Franklin remarked.Evan asked, "Do you dislike Paige because of her family background or because of her as an individual?"Franklin explained, "Evan, you know that Alex is my only son. He's going to take over Price Group in the future. Every family in Angelbay is watching the three most influential families closely. It will be very difficult for us to get back to our previous positio
After getting into the car, Alex turned to Evan and asked, "What did you say to my father that made him agree so easily?"Evan leaned back and closed his eyes. "Be quiet."Alex didn't press for more information. After all, he was thankful to Evan for handling the task.Once home, Alex shared the good news with Paige. Paige didn't display much emotion, but she said lazily, "It's good that you've resolved the issue."Alex furrowed his brow, puzzled. "You don't seem too happy about it, huh?"Paige sighed. "Do you want me to burst with excitement? Don't forget that we haven't explained things to my parents yet." Paige worried about how her parents would react to the news. She thought, 'Even though my parents are good people, their thinking is conservative. If they find out I'm pregnant out of wedlock…'Paige couldn't fathom the consequences, so how could she be happy?Alex reassured her, "It's simple. We'll set a time, I'll get some gifts, and we'll visit them. I'm here. Don't b
"Don't ask too many questions! I'll send you the restaurant address later, and you can meet us there!" Caroline interrupted him."Okay!"Caroline went to Naomi's office to discuss some matters after ending the call.Then, she invited Zeke and Siobhan out for a meal.-At Angelbay Hotel.Kenny ordered the best items from the restaurant's menu when he arrived first.Caroline and Zeke went straight to the private room upon their arrival at the hotel.Kenny was about to order drinks from the waitress in the private room when Caroline, Zeke, and his daughter entered.Kenny hurriedly approached Zeke and greeted enthusiastically, "I've heard of your great reputation, Mr. Jung! Welcome to Angelbay!"Zeke smiled and said, "Hello, Kenny."Kenny was stunned. "You actually know me?"Zeke replied, "Yes, of course. You're the Vice President of TYC."Caroline commented to Kenny, "You're a little overexcited, huh?""How can I not be? Mr. Jung is a giant in the petroleum industry!" Kenny
