Steven had assumed that Deborah had always been concerned about him. He even naively believed that Deborah took him as everything that revolved around her. But now Deborah suddenly said, "If something happens to you, what will happen to Lily and me in the future?" She didn't even think about Steven at all. Steven was positively upset. "Wait, I am sorry. I didn't mean that. I was just worried about you!" Deborah hurriedly explained herself. She knew that she had uttered the wrong words. "Honey, what can I do for you now?" "If you were genuinely worried about me, you would have stayed at home and not caused me any trouble. Visit me at the hospital when I need you to," Steven said. Deborah lingered at the hospital a while longer before leaving. She didn't head home but instead, she went to the beauty salon that she frequented. She arrived and was escorted to the VIP room. Heather, the staff member that serviced her regularly came up and asked, "W

Chapter 132

Edric had always felt very guilty towards Lily. As a matter of fact, he felt that Margaret was the one responsible for putting Lily in such a state. Lily had such a bright future ahead of her but she was sucked into this whole predicament. After finding out that Steven and Deborah were behind all these, he felt even more sorry for Lily. His guilt towards Lily reached its peak after Marie told him about Lily and her infertility. Edric then decided to get engaged with Lily although his choice would put Irene in misery. For starters, he felt indebted to Lily. Though he didn't love her one bit, Lily had always seemed kind and gentle. He never expected Lily would do such a thing to Irene. He was not a fool. He knew that Freya was the mastermind behind all this. Edric lamented himself for making such a huge mistake. Because of whatever things he did to Irene, he had to end the relationship with Lily. Edric didn't completely blame Lily. He was still Lily's f

Chapter 133

Myra and Thomas lived a hard life and were often abused physically by the people who took care of them. After their caretakers died of an accident, Myra and Thomas became orphans. When Dania received the news, she sent someone to pick them both up but Myra refused. Dania didn't know what the Nelson family had been telling Myra that caused Myra to hate her so much. Myra claimed that she didn't have such a shameless mother. Myra was confident in her own abilities to raise Thomas and herself well. As a result, Dania had been living in guilt and pain. Later, Yohannes suggested that one of their servants adopted Myra and Thomas as a deed of kindness. That way, both of them would be able to get a good education. Myra's grades were very good from primary school all the way until college. Thomas on the other hand had no interest in studying. He did not graduate from middle school, instead, he chose to homeschool. When Myra was in college, she was the campus belle. Sh

Chapter 134

After that, Marie left San Fetillo and went to Alsburgh City. After more than ten years of hard work, she became a famous specialist. But this was not the life she wanted. If it wasn't for Steven and Myra, she would not have gotten into such a situation. She would be living lavishly with Malcom as his rich wife instead of being just a doctor. Although she was well- known in the medical world, she was nothing compared to those ladies living in rich families. If that incident hadn't happened, would she be in this situation? She hated both Myra and Steven even more now. During Marie's time as a famous doctor in Alsburgh city, Steven also got transferred over to the city as a politician. Marie was genuinely happy to see how well her daughter was doing, apart from having such a horrible father of course. If truth be told, she hadn't any ill intention towards Irene. It was Irene who chose to fall in love with Edric that Lily was in love with first. Irene's behavior

Chapter 135

After closing the private room door, Rowane seated herself opposite Marie, who had a very unpleasant look on her face. Marie asked, "Miss, what do you want from me?” Rowane stared at Marie and bit her lip. The woman in front of her looked somewhat similar to her. For some reason, she had a vague hint of expectation that Marie was her mother. Meanwhile, Marie looked at Rowane with disgust. Margaret had stated that she wanted Rowane to have children with Edric. In fact, both Rowane and Edric were pretty close. As a result, Marie subconsciously felt uncomfortable when she saw Rowane and spoke in a very unpleasant tone. "I..." Rowane pulled out a pendant from her pocket and put it on the table. "Do you recognize this pendant?" Marie's expression changed when she saw the pendant. She picked it up and inspected it carefully. "Why do you have this?" "Is it yours?” Rowane glanced at Marie eagerly. "Yes!" Marie picked up the pendant. "I

Chapter 136

Later that night, Edric came home a little earlier than usual. He had lots of questions to ask Irene but didn't know where to start. Dania remarried Yohannes. Although Dave was not related to Irene by blood, he was her uncle by lineage regardless. Edric was upset to think how little he knew about Irene, even though they had been married for a good five years. Edric did inquire Irene about her family before the marriage. She claimed that her parents had passed away and she was left with only one uncle. At that, he did not have the slightest doubt. But even so, he didn't blame Irene for not telling the truth. Back then to him, going back home only meant spending some alone time with Irene. He didn't care what she was thinking. Married with such an incompetent husband, it was no wonder that Irene kept all her thoughts to herself. Edric dwelled in his own melancholy for a long time. Finally, after dinner, while strolling around the area with Irene, he tentatively

Chapter 137

Edric had fallen asleep, but Irene was quietly contemplating something on her mind. Why did Edric throw her such a weird question that  night? Why would he suddenly ask  about Myra? What was he trying to find out? Or did he already figure something out? Since Irene could remember, Myra had always been very reluctant to talk about Dania. She would just brush the topic off and tell Irene that Dania had died. But if that was so, why was there no grave of Dania? Was Myra lying? Was Dania not actually dead? Did Edric find something out, and was that why he came to ask Irene about it? But what was the relationship between this matter and Edric? When Myra died, the only family Irene had left with was Thomas. He was the only one who knew about all this. Irene decided that she had to go back to check with Thomas. The next day, Irene returned to Thomas' residence. She chatted with him briefly before quickly inserting her question, "Uncle Thomas, I have a ques

Chapter 138

Lily's blushing face instantly turned as pale as snow. Edric sneered and stated, "Tomorrow, I will go to the Cook family and tell Mr. Cook and Mrs. Cook about our affairs in person." John held on to Edric and they headed out to the car outside. John quickly started the car while Edric undid the button on his collar and ordered John to turn on the air conditioning. But it didn't lessen the heat in his chest. When he came back to celebrate Margaret's birthday, he hadn't intended to stay overnight. Before he came, he told John that he must come pick him up at night. It wasn’t because he was afraid Margaret would play tricks on him, but rather he was worried about leaving Irene at home alone. He hadn't expected Margaret would have such a plan. At the dinner earlier, she made him drink even though she knew he had gastritis. It was clear she was up to something. But he was not worried. He knew John would be coming to get him. Hence, he played along with Mar

Chapter 139

At daybreak, Edric opened his eyes after a deep sleep. Looking at Irene who was still sleeping beside him, he anxiously hugged her and planted a kiss on her forehead. "Irene, I'm sorry!" The previous night, he knew how crazy he had been, but he couldn't control it. In the car, he was still trying his best to keep it together with sheer will power. But the moment he returned home and saw Irene, he lost all his control. He had to have her right there and then. He fiercely made love to her once on the couch. That managed to somewhat calm down the heat inside him a little. He held Irene in his arms and asked for forgiveness. Regardless of her punches and kicks, he took her back to the bedroom. He wanted to give her a bath, but within minutes, his desire started burning inside him again. Hence, he ended up making love to her again. He heard Irene begging for mercy, but he could not stop himself. Irene's body was full of marks from the day before. Edric reached out

Chapter 140

Before this, Steven was all smiles. But seeing how his face changed immediately, Edric was positively amazed by him. He had to give it to Steven, to be as skilled at being this two-face, for it must've taken years of practice. But wasn't Steven the one who told him to seduce Lily? Why was he turning around and blaming it on Edric now? Finally, Edric understood why Irene despised Steven so much. He said lightly, "About Lily, please accept my apologies. It was my mom's doing. If she didn't want a grandchild so badly, none of these would have happened." "Yes, if your mom hadn't treated Irene like that back then, then everything would not have happened. It's all your mother's fault," Steven echoed. As that, Edric chuckled faintly. "It's true that it wasn't right for her to be selfish and snobbish, but it wasn't right for you and Mrs. Cook to set me and Lily up either. If we're going to bring up the past, clearly you and Mrs. Cook had a part in it too."
