"It's true that Edison is better than me, so why don't you marry his children off to the Ward family instead?" Edmund finally had enough and roared at Catherine. "Your son, your grandson, your granddaughter... Are they all just pawns for you to sacrifice? If that's the case, why did you even give birth to me?"Edmund stormed off, still furious.Melinda watched Edmund leave, anger flashing in her eyes as she clenched her fists.She knew Catherine didn't favor them, but she hadn't realized just how little Edmund meant to her compared to his older brother, Edison.She scoffed.She wanted to know just how capable Edison’s family was.-Riverside Senior High.The last two classes of the afternoon were self-study. Eden, not wanting to stay in the classroom, planned to find a place to nap on the sports field. As she reached the stairwell leading to the first floor, she spotted Daliah and several other students from Class 3-1 surrounding Natasha and Joy."You want to attend Leo's conc

It wouldn't be easy to get a ticket to Leo's concert.Daliah, despite her wealth, couldn't secure one. She was eager to see how Alain would react when Eden begged him for it. Someone like Alain could never tolerate his partner being interested in another man. A glint of malice flickered in Daliah's eyes at the thought of Eden being ousted by Alain.Eden glanced at Daliah and smiled, saying, "Sure."Daliah was taken aback. She hadn't expected Eden to agree so readily. It took her a while to regain her composure before scoffing, "After snatching Alain away, now you're casually handing out tickets worth thousands."However, beneath her facade, Daliah couldn't help but feel envious.Eden casually slipped her hands into her pockets, her smile bright but insincere. "They're not just for them. I'm giving tickets to everyone in Class 3-18 as a gesture."Upon hearing this, Joy interjected, "I don't want one, Eden. Don't buy it for us."Having heard from Ewan about Eden marrying Alain ins

"I met the doctor by chance, and they disappeared after treating me. I have no idea where they are now," Alain replied respectfully."If you don't want to discuss it, I won't press further," Samuel said, taking another sip of tea and observing Alain. "You didn't just come here for tea, did you? Why don't you tell me what you have in mind?"Alain smiled, lighting a cigarette and tapping the table leisurely. "There's been a post about me on Riverside Senior High's message board recently. Have you seen it?""A post about you?" Samuel looked puzzled, having been preoccupied with family matters and unaware of recent events at school."That's right. Someone posted something slanderous about my fiancée. As the principal of Riverside Senior High, you understand the negative impact this could have on a student, right? I believe such posts should be prohibited. What are your thoughts?" Alain's demeanor shifted, his eyes narrowing slightly, his tone serious.Samuel frowned. "I haven't been k

Eden had finished school and got into Alain's car when she received Sofia's call."Ed, can you come to the hospital after school? There's something I want to talk to you about," Sofia's voice sounded off.Eden narrowed her eyes, her tone cool. "Alright."Alain was right beside Eden and overheard the conversation.He took Eden's hand and said hoarsely, "The Hunts visited your grandmother."Eden turned to look at Alain for a long moment. Suddenly, a distant smile crossed her face. "That's great!"Horace, sitting in the passenger seat, instinctively shrank back. He could feel Eden's rising anger.Best to keep quiet and protect himself.Twenty minutes later, the car pulled up in front of the hospital.Eden wasted no time heading to the ward.Upon seeing Alain with her, Sofia observed in silence for a moment before speaking, "Mr. Ward, could you all please give us a moment? I need to talk to Ed."Alain nodded without complaint. "Sure."He then led Horace and Caelus outside.Ede

Alain's voice was slightly hoarse, which made him sound more manly than usual.Eden turned to look at him with a faint smile playing on her lips. "She said we're not suited for each other."Alain pressed on the brake, his fingers tightening around the steering wheel as he stared at Eden. It took him a while before he responded, "I think we suit each other just fine."He realized he was shaking when Eden said that.Eden chuckled. "I was just kidding."Alain looked at her, still unsettled. "That's not funny. No more jokes like that."Eden shrugged. "Grandma asked me to let Jasmine move into Skygarden.""You agreed?" Alain leaned closer, resting his arm on the car window."I agreed," Eden replied nonchalantly.Alain's expression turned sour instantly.Eden rested her head on her hand lazily. "Things can get pretty dull. I guess I can use the distraction."Alain's face brightened. He restarted the car. "Let her stay in the downstairs maid's room, then.""Do whatever you want."

The first class of the day was Grant's math class.When it was Grant's class, the students from Class 3-18 were usually quite orderly.Grant returned the homework the students had done earlier. But when it was Eden's turn, he massaged his head."Eden," he called out.Eden got up to take her homework.Grant patted her shoulder and said sincerely, "Math isn't that hard. If you're willing to put some work into it, I'm sure you can do well. Do you want me to give you extra classes?"He knew nothing about Eden's marks from her entrance examination.Samuel had only told him she had passed it.However, all the teachers of various subjects had told him that Eden had been getting zeroes on all their homework and tests.At first, Grant didn't believe it. He finally believed it when he saw the math homework. She hadn't done any of it.He then asked the student representative for each subject, and they all said that Eden didn't know how to do it.That was why he had a headache.She had

Daliah walked to the door of the classroom, visibly irritated. She stood in front of Ewan, hands on her hips, and sneered, "Oh, Eden. I thought you were just a country girl who lacked proper manners in the past. I didn't expect you to be full of lies. You’re saying you bought these tickets yourself?""Are you trying to avoid honoring your part of the wager?" Ewan said, his expression shifting as he glared at Daliah icily."Me? Backtracking?" Daliah took the ticket from Ewan and said, "All of you from Class 18 gathered money for Eden yesterday so that she could buy the tickets and win the wager. Seriously. One person lies, and the entire class lies for her, and you want me to honor my part of the wager? You must be dreaming!"The students from Class 3-18 were riled up."What are you talking about? She bought the tickets herself!""If you don't want to accept your punishment, just admit it. Here you are making up such an excuse. That's so disgusting.""Tsk. And they say that those

Daliah then recalled how Eden had broken Simon's leg, and she instantly felt her strength leaving her legs as she fell to the ground.She shook her head nervously. "No… I didn't lose. These tickets can't be real. You must have done something…"Eden was just a country girl. She had no money, no influence. It was impossible for her to get tickets to Leo Hart's concert.Alain also wouldn't lend her so much money just for her to spend on nothing.Those tickets were fake. They had to be fake.Eden took a step forward and glared at Daliah. "If you don't want to honor your part of the wager, we'll change to another method."Eden glanced at her with no expression on her face. "Her mouth is so vile; I suppose we can patch it up. You up for it, Ewan?""I'm game," Ewan said as he stood behind Eden, gaining some bravery. "I'll have someone buy a sewing kit. I'll sew her mouth up now."He wouldn't let Daliah escape from backing out of the wager.Daliah was so terrified that she quickly cra

Sinead liked Eden a lot, too. No matter how bad she was, Sinead's preference for Eden to become her daughter-in-law was certain.Now, all the students from Class 3-18 liked her too.It was driving Jasmine crazy.Everything that was hers was slowly drifting away, all because of Eden.She couldn't allow it to happen.She gritted her teeth and walked toward Eden, then held her hands with a faint smile. "We're all from the Hunt family. Our family won't be happy if they find out that we've caused such a commotion outside. You've just gotten engaged with Master Alain; he won't be happy too. Daliah is wrong this time, so I'll ask her to apologize to everyone, alright?"Eden shook Jasmine's hands away coldly. "How do you know what he's thinking?"She then sneered at Jasmine. "That's right. He was supposed to be your fiancé. I stole him from you.""That's not what I mean. I said nothing like that." There was a lot of hate in Jasmine, but only gentleness showed on her face."That's not

Chapter 90

Eden raised an eyebrow and took a step forward, grabbing and pulling Daliah out from behind Jasmine.As Eden grabbed Daliah by her collar, she turned and looked at Jasmine, then said, "You're not worth anything to me."Jasmine's expression became colder, but she said nothing when she saw the way everyone was looking at her.Eden ignored Jasmine and focused on Daliah. "No one is brave enough to backtrack on me. Now that you did, you have to pay the price. That's my rule.""What... What do you want from me?" Daliah struggled to get free.But Eden was so strong that Daliah couldn't escape no matter how hard she struggled.Eden raised her hand and grabbed Daliah by the arm. There was a cracking sound, followed by Daliah's scream. "Ah!"Eden then threw Daliah on the ground and looked at her coldly. "You should be thankful that Jerred is from your family. Your arm is salvageable."Eden turned and left after saying that.She had simply fractured Daliah's arm, not breaking it complete
