Chapter 771 A Child in View

"Leona, it's been three years. How come there's still no news about your pregnancy?" Questions poured in the minute Leona returned to the Lancaster family and exchanged a few words with her parents. Charles's gaze lingered on her stomach for quite a while. Although Charles's comment was just a casual remark, Leona was embarrassed.Liam had not touched her, so how could she be expecting a child? However, she couldn't say it, especially in front of Hannah. If she did, she might have to face Hannah's mockery.Karen glanced at Leona and wondered. She then turned to Charles. "Young people have their own beliefs these days. Don't rush them." Karen then looked at Leona and asked, "Are you getting along well with Liam? How are the Prescotts treating you?"  Knowing that Karen was trying to protect her, Leona felt relieved. She put on a composed and gentle smile, saying, "Mr. Prescott senior treats me well and has always supported me. It's just, as Dad mentioned, I still haven't conceive

Chapter 772 The Realization Struck Hard

In fact, Monica didn't want to come back. Three years ago, Peter forced her to sever ties with him, and she had taken the opportunity to avoid financially supporting him and being subject to gossip.  However, Benjamin's recent anger over Amelia's background made her uneasy. To restore her image in Benjamin's eyes, she returned and played the role of a dutiful daughter.   Perhaps Peter didn't make things difficult for Monica due to his old age, but he didn't give her a warm reception either.  Seeing that Peter had no objections, Monica became even more unrestrained. She walked over with Hannah, who looked quite displeased. "Dad, this is Hannah. The one I raised since she was little. Hannah, quickly call him Grandpa." At the entrance, Amelia, who had planned to go upstairs with a suitcase, halted upon hearing this.   She glanced at Monica and wondered why Monica brought Hannah to Peter's 80th birthday celebration. Furthermore, she even insisted on making an unwilling Hannah cal

Chapter 773 The Murderer Returns Home

Lost in her thoughts, Amelia didn't notice the person before her. All she heard was a soft thud, like a car door closing."Ms. Jenson! Do you need some help?"Amelia snapped back to reality when she heard someone call out to her. She lifted her head to look at the person speaking to her. Seeing him, Amelia was surprised. Wasn't he just leaving?Glancing to his side, she noticed the person sitting in the car—Liam.Before she returned to Terracrest, Amelia knew she would see him again. After all, Sableton was a little small. If she was going to live there, she was bound to run into him.But despite all her preparation, she hadn't expected to meet him so soon. It was only her first day back."Ms. Jenson?" Gio called out to her again. Amelia smiled at him. "Thank you, but I'm fine."Gio still seemed worried. "But you looked troubled earlier, walking with your head down. I called out to you multiple times, but you didn't reply. You almost bumped into Mr. Prescott, too."Instinctiv

Chapter 774 False Pretenses and Immaturity

"Amelia, you're finally back. Mommy missed you so much.""Oh?" Amelia chuckled. "Are you sure you're my mom?"Monica's expression faltered. She pursed her lips, looked at Peter, and then laughed. "What are you talking about? If I'm not your mom, then who is?""I'd like to know that too," Amelia said, shifting her gaze to Hannah.On closer inspection, there was indeed a resemblance between Hannah and Monica. It's just that Amelia hadn't thought about it before, so she never noticed it.Amelia noticed when Monica exchanged glances with Peter a moment ago. She knew what Monica was implying, but she didn't want to give in to Monica's wishes.When she thought about it, Monica knew they weren't related biologically. However, she always insisted on being a mother to Amelia. She even tried to force her to do things she didn't want.Peter was unaware of the hidden dynamic between the two and believed that Amelia hadn't forgiven Monica yet. He decided to let it go and looked at Monica. "Y

Chapter 775 Answering Questions

"Amelia, so you've returned to Terracrest!"In the villa, Leona took out her frustration on the flowers, beating them with a stick and sending petals flying.The once lush flowers, meticulously tended by the maids, now looked sparse and desolate. Numerous leaves had fallen, creating a mess around them.From the hallway, the maid watched as Leona vented her frustration. She felt sorry for her but hesitated to intervene.Just then, the familiar click of the entrance was heard. When the maid saw who it was, her eyes lit up. She rushed to tell Leona, "Mrs. Prescott, Mr. Prescott is back!""Liamo's home?" Filled with joy, Leona quickly entered the villa. She was oblivious to the maid's pained expression as she approached the flower bed."Liamo, you're back?" Leona greeted the person she had been longing for with a beaming smile, completely devoid of the jealousy and anger she'd displayed moments before.Liam glanced at her and responded with a subtle nod.The villa was Leona's bri

Chapter 776 Caught

After exiting the mansion, Liam quickly drove away.Leona's drug had no antidote, and he had no intention of going to the hospital right away either. In his mind, there was only one person he wanted to see and hold right then.Liam sped through several red lights and finally reached his destination.Amelia was about to go to bed when she heard a knock at the door."Who is it?" She went to the door. Amelia was shocked to see who it was when she peered through the peephole. After a moment of thought, she decided not to open the door.Outside, Liam couldn't contain himself. When he left the villa, he felt like his body was about to explode. In order to stay calm, he'd used a fruit knife to cut his arm.Suddenly, Amelia heard the sound of keys opening the door and widened her eyes. Did Liam have the keys to her house?Just as the thought appeared, Liam had already opened the door and entered."Why do you have the key to my house?" Amelia asked, anger written all over her

Chapter 777 The Maid's Cunning Plan

In the living room, a maid was busy mopping the floor."Ah!"Hearing Leona's cry of distress, the maid quickly turned around and saw Leona collapse to the ground."Madam, are you okay?" she asked."Seriously? You turned the floor into a pool!"The maid helped Leona up, only to receive a slap from her."Sorry, Madam! It was all my fault!" The maid hung her head low as she apologized, but she had an evil smile on her face.The maid used to think that Leona was a breeze to take care of. But the longer she stayed at the villa, the more Leona's bad moods led to her being mistreated and humiliated. This bred resentment within her.Over the past three years, Liam rarely visited Leona. And even when he did return, he wouldn't share a bed with her. This, in turn, caused the maid to lose any respect she might have had for Leona.That night, when Leona had plotted against Liam, little did she know that the maid was plotting against her as well!The maid witnessed Leona tampering wit

Chapter 778 Shannon

"What's the deal with Liam, Leona? Ask him why he withdrew from so many business partnerships with us!"  Leona was stunned when she received a phone call from Charles.  Then, she smiled and replied, "He sure is ruthless."  Charles became suspicious and could hear that something wasn't right from Leona's tone. "What do you mean? Did you and Liam get into an argument?" he asked.  "Yeah, I did have an argument with him. I wonder if you're asking this because you're worried about our relationship, or if you're just worried about your company."  Charles quickly relented after realizing that Leona was angry. "I'm worried about you the most, dear. But what happened between the two of you? It's normal for married couples to get into arguments, but you shouldn't take it out on the company. Just talk him out of it, okay?"  Leona just snorted as she hung up.  Charles only truly cared about the company and not about Leona and Liam's relationship. He was just afraid that an argument b

Chapter 779 Just Want To Talk

Amelia frowned as she looked at the distraught Liam. Then, she immediately snatched the wine glass from his hand. "Why are you still drinking if you can tell that you're already drunk?"  Liam wasn't angry even when his wine glass was snatched away. Instead, he simply stood up and leaned in close to Amelia.  Amelia quickly took a step back. "What are you doing?"  "Haha, this dream is really realistic." Liam smiled and reached out to pinch her face. "It feels just as good as I remember. "Thank God it's a dream. The real you wouldn't have let me touch you at all. Do you remember how happy we were that night? Why did you have to say that it was just a one-night stand?"  Liam frowned, seemingly aggrieved. "I was still really happy even though you were angry about it. I'd finally had you by my side again. I'm actually kinda grateful to Leona. I wouldn't have been forced to go and look for you if she hadn't drugged me. "I was really afraid … Afraid that you've forgotten about me

Chapter 780 It Was All Leona

"Not everything can be solved by reporting it to the police. Leona may not be Rory's biological mother, but she has custody of him as his step-mother that raised him. The law dictates that Rory should be with Leona. And as for the injuries on his body, we don't have evidence to prove that she's guilty of it." Liam explained.  Amelia's expression turned gloomy as she listened to Liam's explanation.  "What did you mean when you said that you were going to marry her?" she asked.  Weren't they already married?  Liam smiled and looked at her. "Do you want to know?"  Amelia noticed his expression and pouted to pretend she didn't care. "I don't wanna know. You can talk about it if you want, or don't talk about it if you don't."  "Haha. Have you seen the recent news about drug dealers being arrested?"  Amelia was confused by the sudden question, but she still nodded her head. "I did. They're a really evil bunch of people. They were operating around all sorts of major entertainmen
