Chapter 521

Fortunately, Michael did not voice his assumption just now, or John would have become vigilant.After John left Michael’s office, he chewed over the matter along the way. He felt the need to investigate the issue as soon as possible to avoid the danger first. He had to keep the issue from being disclosed. Once he arrived home, he looked at Sophia with suspicion. His expression was filled with hostility. Throughout these years, Sophia was most capable of observing one’s expression. From John’s gaze, she could sense that danger was near. Sophia then asked the chauffeur, Benny, about John’s itinerary only to find out that Bill had been arrested and that John had personally interrogated Bill in the police station.Sophia instantly panicked. If Bill confessed everything, she would be dead.She felt uneasy as she recalled the way John looked at her. Could John be suspecting her already?Luckily she never had direct contact with Bill. Now that Ninth Brother had gone abroad, she was

Chapter 522

“Do I need to discuss with you if I’ve managed to persuade her? I wonder which b*stard exposed all your doings back then. Heather hates mistresses most for interfering with other people’s marriage. She got even more furious after knowing that you were friends with Molly. She said outright that she won’t accept the daughter of a mistress into the family.”What fuelled Winona’s anger was that Heather even began to suspect her when she spoke up for Serena. After that, she was afraid to comment further. “Heather has always longed for a grandson. Now that Serena is pregnant with two children, how can she afford to give up on them? This is strange!”“I initially thought so too, but Heather said that Christina has already provided her a grandson and there’s another one in Christina’s belly. Two is enough for her, and what’s more, Christina can still get pregnant in the future.”The more Winona described, the more furious she became. “Anyway, Heather has taken to Christina now, and she’s

“What? Did you say Bill was caught?”This took Winona by shock. She knew the entire development of Bill’s incident the last time. If John learned the truth from Bill and tracked it down to Sophia following the clues, then all of them would be in trouble.“John knows about the past?”“Not yet but his attitude has changed after seeing the man. Bill’s involved with Hoover Lane, hence John must be suspicious of me because of that.”Winona knew the seriousness of the matter. Christina had never been in contact with people from Hoover Lane thus it seemed unlikely that she would be involved with them. John must be able to guess that Bill and Ninth Brother were under someone else’s instruction.Fortunately, Bill did not know much of the details. He only carried out Ninth Brother’s orders as told and had no direct contact with Sophia. However, if John continued with the investigation, the truth might come to light soon.“Ninth Brother has already left the country. So even if John’s suspic

Chapter 524

“Remind Judy to keep a close eye on the Larsons and report to you immediately if anything happens. We can’t afford another mistake this time.”“Don’t worry about that. I’ve got leverage on Judy so she’ll have to listen to me.”Just like the two of them discussed earlier, Heather did unexpectedly apologize in a low voice, which greatly shocked both Christina and Francis.There had not been much interaction between Francis and Heather. He did not have much contact with the members of Larson family even when Christina was married to them before. Even then, Heather’s overbearing arrogance had already left a huge expression in him. Why would a tricky and malicious woman like her start to see things properly all of a sudden?It was Christina who broke Heather’s leg hence the latter hated her to the core, always shouting about wanting to sue Christina and send her to jail. Why would Heather suddenly change her attitude? Not to mention she was willing to accept Christina, and she also re

Chapter 525

Michael figured he had to take a different approach to the arrest of Ninth Brother, and that was when he thought of Matthew. The Henderson family had great connections with the police and gangs abroad. Seeking their help would definitely be more effective than depending on the police.He was thinking about this when Logan came to report that Matthew’s staff was also following Sophia. It seemed that Matthew had also figured that something was wrong.Logan’s words implicitly implied that it was better to squash enmity rather than keeping it alive. Michael and Matthew did not have any discord between them to begin with. They only ended up in this awkward situation because of Christina.Since Christina’s happiness was their common goal, it would make things easier if they made peace with each other.Michael and Matthew were both proud and arrogant. In the past, it would be impossible for either of them to take a step back and initiate reconciliation. However, the situation was differ

There was no need to conceal this matter from Matthew. “This person is Bill Hunt’s superior. He’s the person behind the scheme against Christina.” “Oh?” Matthew was surprised.“This person has no past grudges with Christina, so he must’ve done so at someone else’s order.”Matthew understood what he meant. “Don't worry, you can leave this to me. However, allow me to ask one more question. President Larson, you probably already know who is behind the scheme. All you need is evidence, right?”Michael smiled. “Sophia and Serena are the masterminds. I’ve been keeping a close watch on them but they are very careful. I can only find evidence from other places.”“I figure it’s them too.” Matthew asked, “Why don’t you tell John of your suspicion and let him take care of the two women?”“I don’t trust him,” Michael expressed his thoughts bluntly. “He came to me last time but I didn't tell him anything.”Matthew did not understand. “Why can't you trust him? Are you afraid he is not sincer

Chapter 527

Heather was genuinely remorseful and eager to compensate Christina. She felt that she ought to show her consideration now that the latter was expecting. Therefore, she bought a lot of baby clothes, toys, and maternity supplies and delivered them to Christina. The woman behaved as politely as the last time. Travis thought better of her after seeing the friendly smile on her face, not to mention the plenty of presents that she had brought along too. He did not run away this time when she showed up. Instead, he stayed by Christina’s side as the two women spoke.Heather was liking the adorable boy more and more. Though because of his health condition, Travis was not as chubby as peers his age but he looked frail and pale instead. Heather felt sorry for her grandson. It was all her fault. If she had not treated Christina poorly in the past, the latter would not have to suffer and the boy might not be born with this sickness.She yearned to hug her grandson close and shower him with kiss

“How do you know?”“Because I received them too. I wonder if Aunty Heather treats us with equal kindness?” Serena said.She mentioned a list of maternity supplies, and Christina realized that they were exactly the same things that she had received too.Serena was smug. “Aunty Heather asked me to not worry as she had bought you more toys because of Travis. Why would I? We’re sisters and we’re not as calculative.”“Shameless!” Christina was furious.“Why are you getting upset?” Serena smirked.“Aunty Heather said she would bring over some top-grade spinach soup tomorrow to nourish my body so I could give her two chubby grandchildren. She mentioned you’re included too. Well, why would she treat both of us with so much kindness? Is it possible she wants the both of us to be her daughter-in-law?”“Shut your stinky mouth!”“I want to remind you to stop daydreaming about starting over with Michael. I’ve always been Aunty Heather’s favorite. She’s never going to accept you into the fam

Chapter 529

Heather had just grabbed the bottle of spinach soup when Winona showed up at her house. She had to stop what she was doing to chat with the visitor for a while.Judy reminded her on the side that she should hurry up and deliver the spinach soup. It was best to consume the drink lukewarm or the taste would deteriorate once it cooled down.Heather could not leave the house since she had a visitor. Anxious, she then handed the insulated bottle over to Judy and instructed the latter to send it to Christina.Christina was playing blocks with Travis in the living room when the doorbell rang. It was Judy on the other side of the door, holding an insulated bottle.Judy, Heather’s lackey, treated her terribly whilst she was still living in the Larson residence, so she did not show the unwelcome visitor any politeness. “What are you doing here?”Strangely, just like Heather, Judy treated Christina with unusual kindness. She handed over the insulated bottle with a smile. “Madam instructed me

Christina turned around and walked back into the house.Francis saw the bottle she was holding. “What is this? Where did it come from?”“Heather ordered Judy to send me creamy spinach soup to supplement my body.” She placed it on the table without the intention to consume it.This took him by surprise. “Did she really? How would Serena have guessed it? Is there really something wrong with it?”She stole a quick glance at Travis who was playing on the side and gestured Francis to follow her into the kitchen. Then, she told him about Judy’s peculiar behavior from earlier.His face fell. “Something must be up. You mustn’t eat it.”“Don’t worry, I won’t.” She opened the lid of the bottle as she spoke. However, a strange expression washed over her face as soon as she saw the content.The insulated bottle was filled with spinach soup that looked orangey red in color and had a nice smell. It looked different from the creamy spinach soup she had eaten before.“Eh, why does it look so r
