Riley was lying on the bed and her eyes were staring blankly. It looked as though she had not noticed the two of them and completely ignored them."Oh Riley, Eryn didn't do it on purpose. She really didn't know you were pregnant. She’s genuinely sad and regretting it. If you're disgruntled, then vent it out on Jim. Just let us know how you want us to make up for it," Scarlet chimed in to help.Finally, Riley's gaze landed on both of them. Her dark eyes glinted with hatred. "I want my child. Can you guys do this?""This…" Scarlet was frightened by Riley's hateful eyes. Eryn was also at a loss for words."Riley, I've asked the doctor. As long as you take good care of your body, you'll still be able to get pregnant in the future.""I don't want to have another child in the future. I only want this child!" Riley was very stubborn.Scarlet had no choice but to continue advising, "That child of yours is gone. You should just let them go in peace. This child just wasn’t meant to be, so
When Sharon was in the laboratory, she received a call from the doctor saying that there was a new treatment plan for Sebastian. They asked her to make the trip to the hospital.She immediately placed the work she was doing aside and drove the car to the hospital.Halfway through the journey, there was something wrong with the car. She got down from the car to investigate it.Just when she was checking the bonnet, she felt someone inching closer to her from behind. Subconsciously, she spun around and a wooden bat smashed down on her. The next second, she passed out.When Sharon tried to open her eyes once again, her head was still hurting. She noticed from her surroundings that she was in an abandoned factory.Both her hands were tied behind her back and the first thing that came into her mind was, 'Have I been kidnapped?’However, she had not seen the kidnapper’s face. She had not offended anyone lately, so she wondered who was holding a grudge against her.At that moment, she
'Is Fiona dead?'But I was knocked out earlier and didn't lay a finger on her!'She wanted to head over to observe Fiona's condition. Suddenly, she heard the siren of a police car. Soon after, tens of police officers were aiming their guns right at Sharon."Freeze!" The leader of the police roared at her.At that moment, Sharon snapped out of it. She had been framed and quickly explained, "It wasn't me. I didn't kill her…" As she tried to recall, the officer barked out once again, "Freeze, you hear me?!""Shar…" Simon had arrived as well and frowned when he saw the bloody knife in her hand. "It wasn’t me, Simon. I don't even have a clue what's going on here." She felt helpless when trying to explain.In such a situation, anyone would misunderstand her and think she was the one who stabbed Fiona to death with a knife.Simon believed in her unconditionally, but the police officers would not. They handcuffed Sharon and brought her into the police car."Don't be afraid, Shar. I
"Whether or not you killed her, or whether she set you up, it's no longer important. The important thing is that this is an opportunity, don't you get it?" Penelope looked at Sharon thoughtfully as she said.Sharon did not catch her meaning. "I know that all this while, you’ve harbored ill intentions against me. Just how much do you want to split me and Simon apart? If you're thinking of advising me to admit to the crime, then you can forget about it.""I've said it so clearly, why can't you understand?" Penelope wondered whether Sharon had a loose screw in her head. "I don't get it, and I don't want to. Please go back. I'm exhausted." Sharon shifted her gaze."With such a thing happening, you're still able to sleep? Besides, Sebastian's illness hasn’t been treated. Can you still sleep in peace?” Penelope said scornfully."The doctor said there's a way to treat Sebastian. If you're really concerned about him, then you’d better head over to the hospital to learn about the details.
Sharon knew that if she agreed to Penelope's idea, Simon would not forgive her.On the one end, it was her son. On the other end, it was the man most important to her. All of a sudden, she did not know what to do.…When it was dawn, Simon came to visit her."Why are your eyes so swollen? You even have dark circles. Didn’t you sleep last night?" He knew Sharon would not be able to sleep well after getting locked up. However, judging from her current situation, it seemed like she had not slept throughout the entire night.Sharon had a lot of things running in her mind, yet she pretended to ask carefreely, "Have you asked about the treatment plan from the doctor?"The glint in Simon's eyes changed, and after keeping quiet for a few seconds, he said, "I have.""So what did the doctor say?"Simon answered exactly the way Penelope answered. The doctor wanted them to have a test tube baby."Have you thought through it? Do you agree with this treatment plan?" Sharon looked into his e
With the metal bars separating them, Sharon could still see the cold glint in Simon's eyes. He looked hurt. Once again, her actions had hurt him!She felt a pinch in her heart and suddenly, she regretted it. 'I've clearly said that I'll not force him to do anything because of our son, yet look at what I've done now?'Just because of what Penelope had told her, she could no longer think properly and even used herself to force Simon into doing something he did not want to.Meanwhile, he was so worried about her and was thinking of ways to get her out of prison. She thought that she was being a scumbag."Simon…" She was about to apologize and ask him to forget about what she just said. She wanted to tell him to not take her words seriously.However, he coldly interrupted her, "Fine, as you wish! I'll agree to the plan!"Sharon was dumbfounded. 'He agrees to it?'He’s willing to go through in vitro fertilization and have a baby with another woman?'"No…" She was eager to say that s
She stood at the spot of the defendant. She gently turned around to look at the audience and saw Simon sitting there as well. His expression was cold and indifferent as usual. He was also giving off an intense aura. His body was emanating a vibe that could make anyone believe that with him around, Sharon would be alright.Sharon clenched her fist. She felt that she should not let him down after all the things that he had done for her.…Everything proceeded according to Simon's plan. At the end of the court session, it was decided that Sharon had made a mistake when defending herself, leading to Fiona's death.Sharon was deemed innocent and was released. However, since it was an accident, she would still have to compensate Fiona's family.Speaking of it, the only family member Fiona had left was Penelope because Howard was still in prison.It would be Penelope's call whether or not Sharon would have to compensate. It would not be difficult to settle.Upon leaving the court, Se
"Sharon, you had it tough this period of time. Come, eat up." It was rare for Penelope to take the initiative to talk to Sharon kindly."Thanks, Penelope." Sharon was being polite but she was not used to the sudden change in Penelope's attitude.Then, Penelope looked at Simon and said slowly, "Simon, have you moved your things back home? Actually, you don't have to go to all the trouble. I’ve never touched all your clothes that were left behind here. Besides, I even asked them to send over new clothes.”"Yeah, I haven’t moved my things," said Simon faintly.Sharon looked at them, puzzled. Her gaze finally landed on Simon. "What things are you guys moving?”"Simon is going to move back to the Zachary household. Didn't he tell you about it? I thought you guys had already discussed it." Penelope looked at Sharon, feeling rather surprised.Sharon was surprised as well. "You're moving back to the Zachary household? Why?""This is his home. Isn't it normal for him to move back here? D
