"You're asking me what I mean? I've already made a three-year commitment to Joanne. If she still insists on marrying me after three years of our engagement, I will marry her, but you have to make it clear to Joanne that your current life is an exact portrayal of her future!" After saying that, Jordan left right away. Lydia was frozen on the spot! She knew best what kind of life she had experienced for all these years. It was difficult to think of a young and beautiful woman like Joanne wasting away her youth, just like Lydia. Malcom was truly scum. Not only did he abandon his child, but he had also passed on the stupid, useless trait of blind faithfulness to Jordan she had painstakingly raised. Jordan angrily left Lydia's yard and returned to the mansion. As he was in a bad mood, he did not go and see Pedro. Instead, he went straight to the airport, ready to depart for San Fetillo. On the way, he suddenly recalled something­ according to Lydia, Myra was meeting someo

Chapter 122

When they returned to the Chandelle Valley in the evening, Edric, who had been teased by Irene the previous day, did not prepare ingredients to cook dinner again. Instead, he took Irene to San Fetillo Hotel, where they had been before. Irene enjoyed the meal very much as the food there was her favorite. After returning to the villa, she went to the bathroom to have another test when Edric was dealing with business in the study. She found that the color was still the same as that in the morning, which indicated her ovulation period would be in these few days. This showed that Irene should start having sex with Edric. Though, she always felt uncomfortable about it. "I'm going all out for Eden! If Edric asks for it, I won't refuse him tonight!" Irene thought as if she swore. Irene was mentally prepared, but Edric was busy dealing with business in the study. She fell asleep later. Anyway, it was not her exact ovulation period yet. Hence, she did not have to seduc

Chapter 123

Jordan and Edric quickly arrived at the hospital with Irene. The doctor gave Irene emergency treatment right away. After the treatment, Irene was sent to the ward. The doctor told them that she had no serious problem and would be fine after some rest. Hearing the doctor's words, Jordan and Edric looked at each other, and both heaved a sigh of relief. After Irene rushed out of the office, she went on a bus in a daze. The bus continued to drive forward, and she sat on her seat blankly until she was the only passenger left on the bus. The night fell, and the scenery outside the window turned into a complete black. When the bus driver announced that they had arrived at the terminal station, Irene stood up at once. The bus driver opened the door, and she got out of the bus slowly. She felt chilly as the evening breeze blew on her. She stared at the dark sky blankly, and there was a salty scent in the air. Realizing that she was not far from the beach now,

Chapter 124

Deborah was sneering as she looked at the comments on the Internet with Lily. "Although Irene's image has been ruined now, Edric must have a knot about you in his stomach. The most important thing now is that we should let him be suspicious about you. Call Edric immediately and tell him that you'll reveal your relationship with Irene to everyone." "How should I do that?" Lily asked. "Tell Edric that you want to disclose the news that Irene is your sister to defend Irene," told Deborah. "Mom, Dad will definitely not agree to this." Lily did not think that was a good idea. "Of course, he won't, but it doesn't matter. Just tell Edric and see how he will answer." Deborah had her own plan. "Mom, is this really okay? If Edric really agrees to it, what should we do?" Lily stared at Deborah. "Then we should do what we say! If Edric agrees to let you announce the relationship between you and Irene to the public, Irene is his sister-in-law by then. In t

Chapter 125

Lily left Edric alone sensibly, albeit feeling rather uneasy. Edric didn't seem to be angry at all, instead, he was treating her as usual. Did he believe her that she was innocent or otherwise? When she returned home, she told Deborah everything that happened a while ago. Deborah revealed a disparaging smile. "It doesn't matter if he believes it or not. Remember that you should not admit it no matter what happened. Your father will be back soon." "Mom, Dad has always been favoring Irene over me. If he knew this, he would definitely blame me," Lily groaned worriedly. "Don't worry. There will be a good show awaiting him when he comes back!" Steven came back from San Fetillo in the afternoon. His face looked as dark as the thunderstorm when he entered the house. Deborah and Lily were on pins and needles so not to irritate Steven. Deborah was highly experienced and her expression looked as if nothing had happened. Lily, on the other hand, had been like a

Chapter 126

Only Irene and Steven were left in the ward. Steven looked at Irene and apologized, "Irene, I'm sorry! It's all my fault! I was bewitched...” "Let the bygones be bygones,” Irene interrupted Steven. "You don't have to apologize to me. I should apologize to you instead because I am the reason that this matter was exposed. Presumably, I've embarrassed you, didn't I?” "Irene, I'm so regretful. When I received the accusation letter back then, I had no choice but to marry Deborah. In fact, I only have your mother in my heart all the time...” "Alright, Mr. Cook!" Irene interrupted Steven once again. "I have noted your apologies. You did not do anything wrong at that time. Everyone is selfish and will do everything for one's own good. For the sake of your own future, you have done nothing wrong. I don't blame you." Steven's face flushed. Instead of looking in his direction, in a very calm voice, she added, "Now, let's talk about the solution of this m

Chapter 127

Jordan was implying that Lily and Deborah were the ones who self-directed the whole thing. Irene didn't believe it. Although she hated them very much, she wasn't convinced that they would commit such a thing for it would very likely end up shooting their own feet. After all, they were gambling with their reputations. She returned to Thomas' place with a heavy heart. When Thomas saw her face that was plastered with anxiety, he recalled that Edric and Jordan were looking for her all over the place earlier that day. Thomas had been worried about her throughout the day, for fear that something would happen to her. Later, Jordan called Thomas and told the latter that Irene had gone on a business trip. Soon after that, when Thomas finally reached Irene, what she told him was the same as Jordan. Although Thomas didn't quite believe it, he decided not to question the authenticity of their statements. It was not until he saw the evening news that he realized that thin

Chapter 128

Irene could imagine how Margaret would react to Edric's action. She would definitely be furious. She assumed that Margaret would be ruining the furniture and making a mess at her own home now. Irene's guess was accurate. Margaret saw Edric's interview and smashed all the things in her house into pieces. She called Edric and asked him to come back quickly to explain to her. On the other side, Lily and Deborah were so vexed after watching the show. It was beyond Lily and Deborah's expectation that Edric would shape Lily into such a person. Deborah only thought that Edric and Margaret would sympathize with Lily more because Lily's reputation was tarnished, and they would take her side as they were bashed too in this incident. It never crossed her mind that Edric would pull out such a card. When Lily approached Edric, she played the same trick. Edric was now using her own ploy. How ironic it was. Looking at the host praising her kindness, Lily was distrau

Chapter 129

"Whoa, that's amusing! The baby must be from the Storks!" Irene sneered. “Is sexual intercourse the only way that a child can be conceived?" Edric retorted. "There are many ways to get pregnant.” "Do you mean artificial insemination?" Irene looked at Edric in surprise. Edric nodded and said, "Yes, and it's not even my sperm!" Irene's eyes widened. "How is this possible?" "At that time, my mother forced me to divorce you. I had no choice. I wanted to give her a grandson for the sake of my family. I asked John to get sperm from a sperm bank." "Impossible!" Irene did not believe it at all. "Are you lying? Edric, do you think that there's no way for me to investigate all this, and that's why you lied?" "I didn't. Irene, I have never touched Lily. At that time, I had no choice but to divorce you. My mother threatened me with her life. You know that! Thus, I forced you to sign that contract. I thought you would not sign it, but you left the

Chapter 130

Steven's words were of no comfort to Lily. Lily's sobs soon escalated into loud, sorrowful wailing. Compared to Edric, whatever Steven was going to do was just a drop in the bucket. Money was secondary to her. She loved Edric so much. After so many years of painstaking effort and work, she could not just give him up. Faced with Lily crying, Steven handed her a handkerchief to wipe her tears with. "Don't cry, Lily. I will definitely find you someone better than Edric!" At that moment, a doctor came in to examine Steven’s condition. Lily stopped wailing at once. The doctor, noticing Lily's reddened eyes, told her, "Mr. Cook will be fine. You don't need to worry." The doctor mistakenly believed that Lily was crying because she was worried about Steven. Steven did not bother explaining to the doctor too. It was then that Lily's phone rang. The caller turned out to be none other than Edric. Lily excused herself from the room and answered the call outside.
