Theodore froze for a moment. Suddenly, Willow snapped out of it. She shook off his grip and stumbled back several steps. "Yes, it was the nanny you brought in. You did this on purpose!""Has Iris given birth?" Willow didn't get angry. Instead, she laughed and said, "You have another child! "My daughter is just a thorn in your side and a burden that gets in the way of your happiness. So, you and Iris teamed up to get rid of her."Theodore's face remained tense. "Calm down.""Calm down? Sure, you're always so calm!"Theodore, you're a cold, heartless bastard." Supported by Matthew, Willow glared fiercely at the man before her with hatred. "If Yasmine can't be found, I'll never forgive you!"The rain continued pouring down, soaking both of them. Without hesitation, Willow got into Matthew's car.In the rearview mirror, she could see Theodore's tall figure standing motionless in the rain, watching them leave. Willow turned her head away, refusing to look back.At the Bassett Res

Chapter 462

In just three days, Willow had lost a noticeable amount of weight. She looked like she had aged ten years overnight. Watching her, Matthew's heart ached. "Willow, please listen to me. At least have a proper meal, okay?"For three days, she hadn't eaten anything that Matthew had brought her. Yesterday, she even fainted, and it was only after Terence gave her an IV that she was able to recover.After much persuasion, Willow finally agreed to have a meal before going to the police station. Meanwhile, Theodore had already secured visitation rights ahead of schedule at the detention center.Through the iron bars, his cold gaze locked onto the woman on the other side. The middle-aged woman shuddered. The handcuffs on her wrists clinked with a sharp sound."Where's my daughter?" Theodore asked bluntly. "Where is she now?"After taking a deep breath, Ruby slowly said, "She's dead."Theodore abruptly stood up. He asked with a gloomy expression, "What did you just say?""Mr. Bassett!" A

"She's not here. Just tell me whatever it is."After that, there was a long silence on the other end of the line.Theodore had always been someone who could remain calm even if the sky was falling. To Matthew, he was ruthless and cold-hearted, a man who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. However, Theodore's tone just now was filled with unmistakable grief.Matthew regretted it a bit, but it was already too late."Yasmine is dead," Theodore muttered through the pain.He was trying to suppress his emotions, but even then, he choked on his words as he couldn't hold it any longer."Don't tell Willow yet."Matthew abruptly grabbed Willow's arm and shouted urgently, "Willow!"Willow was already frail, so she collapsed against Matthew's chest, gasping for breath. Her breathing was very shallow and weak. She gripped Matthew's arm tightly. "T-Theodore… Y-You…""Willow!"Matthew regretted it so much. He quickly carried her up and went to the City Hospital.…Willow lay i

At Bassett Corporation…"Mr. Bassett, the cemetery has been chosen. Yasmine's remains have been laid to rest.""Alright. I got it," Theodore replied hoarsely, his voice raspy from a sleepless night spent at the office.He barely lifted his head when Clark gave him the update. At that moment, the phone on his desk vibrated."Hello?""Theodore, Is Willow with you?""Willow? Wasn't she with you?""What did you say?" Theodore abruptly stood up. With a pale face, he asked, "How could you lose sight of her?"Without even grabbing his coat, he stormed out of the office. Clark hurried to catch up.On the streets of Emperia, sanitation workers were still sweeping away the leaves scattered by the rain. The wet leaves turned the ground into a soggy mess, making the entire city feel bleak and desolate."Miss, aren't you cold being out here dressed like that?" an elderly worker asked a passing woman with concern. However, she simply walked by as if she hadn't heard him. She was wearing

Chapter 465

Willow's expression was dazed. She kept staring at the child in the young woman's arms.Fearing she might act impulsively, Matthew held her tightly. He spoke softly, trying to soothe her. "Let's go home, alright? We should head home."Perhaps it was because she was a mother herself, so she could understand the attachment. The young woman suddenly said, "My daughter's name is Lily. She's three months old. Would you like to hold her?"Willow nodded slightly. However, Matthew was still a bit worried. He asked, "Are you sure it's alright?""Of course! If it weren't for this lady, my daughter wouldn't be here."The young woman moved closer, giving the baby to Willow. "Lily, remember this day. This lady saved your life. When you learn how to talk in the future, you must thank her properly."The three-month-old baby had chubby cheeks and seemed completely unfazed by the recent accident. She stared at the people around her with curiosity.Willow took the baby in her arms with practiced

"Willow, you're truly fortunate," Iris remarked, her response sidestepping the question. "You've lost one child, then another. Now, someone is going to great lengths to comfort you and even trying to give you another child.""What on earth are you talking about?" Willow asked."Don't you know about it yet? Theodore and I have discussed it. I'm leaving our child in your care after I go abroad. The child will be registered under your name, and you'll still be Mrs. Bassett," Iris replied.Willow's nails dug sharply into her palm as she stared at Iris in disbelief. "This can't be happening.""Can't it? Then look at this," Iris said, handing her a copy of a newborn registration certificate.It clearly stated that Yaron Bassett was male, with Theodore Bassett listed as the father and Willow Jett as the mother.Willow's face went pale. Yaron Bassett? Yasmine Bassett? How dare Theodore replace Yasmine's life with his illegitimate child, Yaron? Willow tore the paper to shreds in a fit

As Iris finished speaking, her strength seemed to drain away, and she slumped into Theodore's arms.Theodore watched Willow's figure recede into the distance, his brow knitting with concern. After a moment of hesitation, he made his decision. He scooped Iris up and began carrying her toward the cemetery's entrance.Without glancing back, Willow got into the car and told Matthew to drive away immediately. "Theodore picked this spot. It's beautiful here—peaceful, serene. Yasmine would have loved it."Matthew caught a glimpse of Willow's reddened eyes, but dismissed it, assuming she was simply grieving. As the car began to pull away from the cemetery parking lot, a familiar figure caught his attention. Theodore was walking in the opposite direction, carrying Iris in his arms.Matthew's face tensed up immediately. "Willow…"Willow was sat in the passenger seat, her gaze fixed on the window. Matthew instantly understood. Without a word, he stepped on the gas pedal and continued d

Chapter 468

Quentin jolted back to reality. "Are you telling me that Willow owns Willus Corporation?""Who else could it be? How could two companies, separated by the distance between Portumville and Emperia, merge and go public out of the blue? It wouldn't make any sense otherwise," Ian replied."That's fantastic!" Quentin's excitement was palpable. "This is amazing news. I'm so happy for her!"Ever since Willow left Emperia three years ago, it was as if she had disappeared completely. No one had seen her since.Ian looked at Quentin and offered a gentle reminder. "Now that you're being transferred to Portumville, why not try to meet her?"Quentin hesitated, his eyes lingering on the news on the tablet. A thoughtful expression crossed his face. "I have a hunch that someone else might have met her before I could."…The plane thundered through the sky, slicing through the clouds as it descended toward Portumville Airport."Ladies and gentlemen, we have landed safely at Portumville Airport.

The sound of the whistle echoed from up ahead. A young man, in his early 20s, jumped down from the railing by the riverbank. He was decked out in trendy streetwear, his hair dyed the latest shade of gray. He stood in Willow's path with a playful grin. "All by yourself, miss?"Willow simply smiled and hummed in response."It's pretty dangerous to be out alone this late, you know.""So?""How about I buy you a drink? There's a great bar just around the corner.""Oh?" Willow arched an eyebrow. "I'm married with two kids. That doesn't bother you?""Why would it? As long as it doesn't bother you. Besides, it's a shame your husband lets his beautiful wife roam around alone at night." He opened a bottle of water for her. "Here, have some water.""Youth is such a blessing. You act without thinking about the consequences." Willow sighed.The young man barely had time to register her words before Willow grabbed his wrist. Her grip was precise, and he found himself unable to break free.

Chapter 470

Willow's assistant, Clarisse Rafferty, was almost in tears on the other end of the line. "Jessica just got back this morning and went home for a bit. She must have argued with Mr. Sweeney Senior and was in a foul mood."So, I thought a few drinks might help her relax, but she got into a fight. The other person is covered in tattoos and looks pretty intimidating.""Did you tell Penny?" Willow asked."I wouldn't dare. With Penny's temper, things would only escalate if she got involved.""What's the situation now?""They've kept Jessica in the room. I ran out to make the call, so I'm not sure what's going on in there.""Just hold on a bit longer. I'll be there soon." Then, Willow hung up and urged the driver, "Please, drive faster."Jessica Sweeney was her close friend. She was a top model and was ranked among the world's top hundred. Willow met her and her manager, Penny Ashworth, under unexpected circumstances not long after arriving in Portumville.In the three years since, Wil
