"If you don't wish to see them, I can make them leave." Simon dropped this statement so easily. To him, it was something he could get done with little effort.Sharon was dumbfounded. 'Make them leave?' She could not deny that she really did not wish to stay with them and have to see them every day. It would be best if he could make them leave.But…She clenched her lips and said, "I think you had better not do that. I don't want Director Zachary to label me as an evil woman again."Sally managed to stay in the house after obtaining the green light from Douglas, who had even ordered her to get ample rest in the Zachary household. He claimed that she might still have some hope of being able to conceive once she recovered.If Simon were to force them out of the house, Sharon would be the only one left to bear the blame.Simon looked at the side of her fair face and gave a vague smile. "Why are you so concerned about that old man's opinion? Are you planning to play the part of a good
As Sharon was trying to think of what she should do next, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open. A childish yet joyful voice of a little kid was heard, "Mommy… I won against grandpa again!"Sebastian ran into the room, delighted, and when he saw his parents hugging each other on the sofa, he suddenly came to a halt. His eyes widened as he looked at them and, a moment later, he shrieked and covered his eyes.Sharon did not expect her son to suddenly barge into the room and see them in such a state. Even though it was not an intimate gesture, it still made her feel embarrassed.She quickly pushed Simon away and got down from his arms. She went over to her son and said in a concerned tone, "What's wrong with you? Why did you close your eyes?""My eyes hurt." The little kid was still covering his eyes with his hands.Sharon became anxious. "Pain? Weren’t you alright just a moment ago? Why does it suddenly hurt? Let me have a look."She prised the little kid's hands away and e
Sharon frowned deeply and looked at the emergency room beside them, its door closed. Right then, the little kid was receiving treatment from a doctor inside and they could only wait outside.Sharon was worried and, at the same time, suppressing her anger. 'Sally, you did this on purpose, didn’t you?'Footsteps came toward them. Sharon spun around and saw it was none other than Sally. Her expression immediately darkened. 'How dare she show her face?'Sally put on a worried facade for the outsiders and said, "Butler, is Sebastian's injury very bad?"The butler explained, "The doctor is attending to him. For now, we can’t be sure of anything yet."Sally glanced at Sharon whose expression was eerily dark. A cold smile visible within her eyes, Sally pretended to sound guilty when she spoke, "It's my fault, aunt. I wasn't looking after the child when it happened. He was being naughty and spilled the water on the table."She paused for a moment, then sighed theatrically as if she was up
"Were you even heartbroken? Isn’t that child just one of your chess pieces? You're cruel enough to kill him, so what right do you have to talk to me about sorrow? That wasn’t Howard's child. That's why you were able to be so heartless to that child, am I right?" Sharon could not control her anger which was out of control and shot back at Sally.The smile on Sally's face vanished. She let out an evil smirk and said, "So what? Since no one can prove that the child is not his, don't you even think about using this matter to scare me! Even if that person is Simon… it's impossible!"When Sharon heard that, a thought flashed in her mind suddenly, and she abruptly understood something. Her sharp eyes were locked onto Sally as she said hesitantly, "You… it's you who intervened with the parental DNA test report?"She had been flabbergasted when Simon let her take a look at the parental DNA test. She could not comprehend the reason behind it. 'It was obvious that the child doesn't belong to H
Howard fell silent for a few seconds before saying, “Okay.” Sharon entered the ward anxiously and saw her son lying on the hospital bed. His burned hands had been bandaged and she could not tell how severe his injuries were. “Doctor, he…” As soon as Sharon opened her mouth, the doctor instantly said, “The child's injuries are serious. If he arrived at the hospital any later, he will most likely have lost his hands.” Sharon did not expect the injuries to be that serious that she almost lost her balance, her body swaying slightly. Simon stretched out his arms to support her. Only a mother could understand how her heart ached at the moment! She could not help glaring at Sally, her eyes boiling with anger. The doctor continued, “Now that the wound has been treated, he should stay in the hospital for observation. As long as we monitor him carefully, the injury will heal properly.” “Thank you, doctor.” Sharon grabbed Simon’s arm tightly. She felt really weak right now. After
Seeing her son’s face full of tears, Sharon resisted the urge to wipe them off for him. Douglas loved this grandson of his so much; perhaps he was the only person who could punish Sally at this time. Sure enough, when Douglas heard Sebastian’s words, he frowned deeply, his aged but majestic eyes turning to Sally, and his voice as deep as an ancient bell as he growled, “Did you hurt Sebastian?” Douglas had been feeling unwell today so he rested in the room without playing with Sebastian. If the butler had not told him that his grandson had suffered burns, he would not have found out about this. Sally felt extremely flustered under Douglas’s intense gaze. At this point, what else could she do? She gritted her teeth, met Douglas’ probing gaze, and put on a very aggrieved appearance. “Grandpa, I didn’t. I just lost a child. I feel nothing but affection for any child I see now. How could I hurt Sebastian?” Howard felt suffocated. Everyone was blatantly bullying his wife one after
“Don't worry. With grandpa around, I will make sure you get your justice.” Douglas patted Sebastian on the shoulder. Simon dialed the number. Sally could not stop herself from trembling. The blood drained from her face, making her complexion deathly pale. She felt scared and flustered. She had made sure to check at that time. There was no surveillance in the living room. She hurt Sebastian so boldly, but she did not expect… Howard could sense her fear and doubts began to emerge in his heart. Could she really have done it? Several thoughts flashed in his mind before he made a decision. Whether she truly did it or not, he had to protect her. If she got into serious trouble, he would be dragged into it anyway. “Sally, why do you look so bad? Are you feeling sick again? Why don’t I take you home to rest first?” Howard wanted to take her away. Douglas immediately barked, “Stop! No one leaves until things are made clear!” “Grandpa, Sally hasn't recovered yet.” Howard persisted
“Enough! Even now you still deny it. It seems that I was too kind to you when I allowed you to stay at home to recuperate, but you hurt my grandson instead. He’s just a child. How could you do this to him? You are truly the most vicious woman!” Douglas loved Sebastian very much. Seeing him being burned, his anger was uncontrollable. “I think Sharon can’t be fully blamed for your fall down the stairs. You have a problem too. Pack your bags immediately and move out of the house!” Douglas issued the expulsion order without any hesitation. Sally’s mind went blank for a moment, her pupils contracted suddenly, and she quickly recovered, “No, grandpa, I was wrong. I admit my mistake. I shouldn't have hurt Sebastian on impulse,” she cried bitterly and pleaded. With a cold face, Douglas said to the butler who had just brought the doctor, “Notify the household to pack her things and throw it out the door!” “Grandpa!” Howard finally could not take it any longer. “And you, you take her a
