Ariel shrugged. “I almost forgot that you have to take care of your child at home. I’m fine now, so you should go back and accompany your son. Remember to bring me breakfast tomorrow morning.” Christina promised to do so. On the second day, Christina made a bowl of cereal for Ariel. She specially brought it to the hospital so that Ariel could enjoy breakfast. Ariel furrowed her eyebrows. “I thought that you’d buy some delicacies for me. In the end, it’s just cereal!” Christina smiled. “I’ll take you to enjoy those delicacies after you’ve recovered. Don’t start complaining now and eat your cereal.” “Alright, I’ll eat it. Remember what you’ve said. You owe me a feast, so you must pay your debt!” “Seriously? Once you’ve recovered, I’ll treat you to a meal every day.” “You’re the one who said that. You can’t go back on your word.” Christina’s phone started to ring while the two of them were chatting. “Miss Williams, this is Suzy. I have something to tell you.” “Sorry, I’m n

“Suzy!” A cold voice could be heard from the door. Michael was standing there unsteadily as he used his hand to hold onto the door frame. “Why did you come out? The doctor said that you shouldn’t be moving about.” Suzy quickly hurried over to help Michael with a worried expression on her face. Michael looked at Christina. “I apologize if Suzy has said anything that might have sounded unpleasant to your ears earlier. Please don’t take her words to heart.” Christina felt a little sad when she saw him still doting on his new lover. “There’s no need for apologies. President Larson, please watch over your girlfriend. Tell her to stop bothering others as it’s impolite.” “Alright.” The light in Michael’s eyes faded as Christina walked toward the door. After Christina left, Michael’s gaze became fierce. “Why did you take it upon yourself to look for her?” “I was worried for you. I didn’t want her to misunderstand you.” Suzy explained. Michael furrowed his eyebrows. He then walked

Christina turned and looked at the man. “What happened?”“Who are you to him?” The man studied Christina.“He’s my uncle,” Christina answered.“He hit my car just now. Look at the state of the front of my car. You should compensate accordingly.”“Christina…” Francis was immensely regretful. This branded car had to be sent out of the country for repair, so the cost would be enormous. People from middle-class households like them would not be able to afford it.“Uncle, don’t fret. I have an idea.” Even though Christina had led an opulent lifestyle since getting married to Michael, she still did not know much about cars. She pointed at the car and asked, “I’ll help you fix it. How much will that be?”“You’ll fix it?” The man acted as if he had just been told a joke. “You can’t repair this car in the country. I’ll have to send it overseas.”Christina finally realized the gravity of the situation. It seemed like she would need to spend a large sum of money. “What do you want me to do

Once Matthew put his phone away, he spared the man standing before him a glance. “How brave you are. Don’t you know what ‘digging your own grave’ means?”The man’s aura was originally hostile, but his guilty conscience got to him when he realized that Matthew did not fear him at all and was staring down at him with a nefarious gaze. Then, he remembered that the woman had said earlier that she came from a penniless household and did not come from an influential background. Therefore, he gathered his courage and asked, “Who are you? Why do you want to meddle in this situation?”Matthew waved his hand dismissively. “There’s no need to panic. Aren’t you asking for money? Someone will get you the money you want very soon.”Not long after that, two police cars arrived at the scene. The first police officer to get out of the car walked toward them. “Mr. Henderson, what happened?”Matthew pointed at the man in front of him and said bluntly, “He’s a car thief who I just stumbled into. You

Christina blushed the second she heard his words that sounded so much like a confession. She tried to change the topic at once. “The housekeeper is innocent. He didn’t know that his nephew stole the car. Can you ask your friend not to fire him?”“You’re so stupid!” Matthew pressed a finger into her forehead. “Why did someone as bright as myself would have relations with a dumb woman like you? You never learn your lesson! Did you forget that he threatened you for money just now?”“That’s his nephew and has nothing to do with him. I just think it’ll be really sad if he gets fired too.”“Only a dumb woman like you would think he’s innocent. He’s committed numerous crimes in the past!” Matthew explained, “Harry spends a large part of the year in France and rarely ever comes back. His branded cars and luxurious villa in the country are all taken care of by the housekeeper. He has been renting the cars out and receiving rental fees in return. Not only that, he’s been up to some heinous st

Heather dwelled on the matter for a while and agreed to the idea after coming up with nothing. Travis had grown a lot. His clothes were getting shorter. Christina brought him to a mall to shop for a few sets of clothes since it was her day off. She was reminded of how old her uncle’s clothes were, so she went to the men’s section as well, ready to pick a few garments for Francis.She put Travis on the sofa and instructed him to sit there and rest. She went and picked some clothes for Francis. However, Francis was gone when she turned back after a round of selection.Dread gripped Christina’s heart. She threw the clothes down and ran out of the store. “Travis! Travis!” she shouted frantically.There was no Travis in sight. Christina looked everywhere for him. “Did you see my son?” She stopped a passerby in a frenzy and asked.He shook his head, and she continued her search.She still could not find him. Terror was written all over her face. Her voice was choked with sobs. “Travis

“I don’t want to wait here. I want to find my son!” Christina’s legs were shaking. Her greatest fear was coming true. What would she do if Travis was never found?That was her son! What should she do now that her cute, obedient, and thoughtful son was gone?Matthew sighed when he saw the state she was in. “Okay, you can come with me!”He held Christina up as they stumbled out of the security room. The mall’s security guards and staff had been mobilized. They were searching for Travis at every inch. Under the lead of a security guard, Matthew walked to the blind spot shown in the footage with an arm around Christina. They found a shirt at the blind spot where the man carrying Travis had disappeared into. Taking the shirt away, they found Travis laying right under the garment and sleeping soundly. Christina reached out and pulled Travis right into her arms. Tears gushed out of her eyes once again as the feeling of finally finding something she had lost overwhelmed her.Matthew exte

A raging fire was ignited in her heart. This was the first time she had ever shouted at someone without caring how she would seem to others. She screamed until her voice turned hoarse.Heather was very satisfied with her reaction. “Christina, if I find that you still have any relations with Michael, things won’t be resolved as easily as it did. I’ll make your son disappear forever!”“Try that, and I’ll kill you!”“Christina, try and put yourself in my shoes. We’re both parents, and you love your son just as I love mine. I hope my son won’t be entangled with you again in the future. Today’s lesson is a small one. Do you understand?”“I’ll sue you! You wicked woman!”“What evidence do you have?” Heather sneered. “Christina, you don’t stand a chance in a fight against me.”“I don’t believe you can just get away with everything you do!”“I indeed can’t get away with everything I do, but I’m content with just getting away with putting you down.” Heather chuckled darkly. “You can try

Christina was having mixed feelings as she laid in his warm and generous embrace. Although Matthew was a playboy and had many ex-girlfriends, she knew that he was a kind person. She thought, ‘Matthew Henderson, if you really like me, please don’t let me down! I’ll give you my heart from this day onward!’Michael was sitting in his car and staring intently at the car with smooth lines that was parked in front of him. The woman in the car was beaming as she talked animatedly to the man.Her smile triggered his senses. He had seen this man send her home a couple of times in the past, but she had never smiled as brightly as she did at the moment. What happened that made her so elated?“Christina, you look so beautiful when you smile. Remember to smile more in the future!” Matthew stared greedily at Christina’s tiny but alluring face. The old Christina was back. This was the woman he wanted. She was beautiful but not naive. Matthew’s heart erupted with joy when he thought about how he
