Chapter 111

Tobias frowned as he stared at the women who had abruptly barged into the scene. He didn't know who she was. Why would she say that he was her mentor's husband?The crowds faced each other with a surprised look. "Who is she?""Did she claim that Mr. Ripley is her mentor's husband? Does that mean her mentor is Mrs. Ripley?""I know who she is! She's the best cadet in the police academy. They call her the Ace Cadet. Word has it that she's extraordinarily good at cracking cases. Is it possible that she found evidence of Ms. Anna's crimes?"When Anna heard that Emily was an expert at cracking cases, she started panicking again. However, she still pretended to be calm.The moment Emily glanced at her, Anna's eyes shifted frantically.Emily saw it, and her lips curled into a grin. She walked toward Anna and grabbed the latter's wrist.Anna's face fell. "What are you doing? I don't know who you are. Let me go!""Listen up, she-devil. You said Mr. Ripley doesn't have evidence and cla

Anna had all but dropped a bombshell.Everyone broke out into heated discussions about the latest revelation."Mr. Ripley is the only son in the Ripley family. If Mrs. Ripley really can't have children…" "The Ripley family is extremely wealthy. Surely, they won't serve their fortune up to someone else! The way I see it, they'll most probably get divorced!""Doesn't Mr. Ripley have a younger sister?""You know nothing. Men typically inherit the family fortune. Even if the Ripley family is the open-minded type and passes it down to the daughter, she's still going to marry into another man's family. That means the fortune will be acquired by her future husband as well. "The Ripleys will still have let someone outside of the family take advantage of them!" "Tsk. What do you think, guys? What will Mr. Ripley decide?"It was a very practical question. The crowd's responses were also very divided.Tobias had an incy demeanor. Pure anger filled his eyes as he clenched his fists, l

Brett and Lucy had met before. Their last conversation hadn't gone well, so she felt disdained and annoyed when she saw him now.Brett sensed her feelings for him, and his face turned red. His eyes were brimmed with regret.He had been foolish enough to mistake the wicked impersonator for his real sister and had misplaced his trust in Anna. However, this was the first time Lucy and Rhett had formally met. As both of them exchanged glances, there was this indescribable sense of kinship between them."I have no idea if I'm your younger sister either.""Can I call you Lucy?" Rhett stared at her solemnly as he spoke in an affectionate tone.Lucy felt fond of him for some reason. She nodded. "Sure.""I watched the entire news broadcast when I was on my way here. Never had I thought Brett and I had trusted the wrong person. We almost made a grave mistake. Will you forgive us, Lucy?"Lucy remained quiet. She had never really blamed them, so talk of forgiving was completely unnecessar

"Once the DNA test result is out, we'll know for certain if Lucy is our younger sister. If she is, then you should treat her nicer, Brett. She's very understanding; I'm sure she'll forgive you."Brett heard what Rhett said and felt a little better. He nodded firmly. If Lucy turned out to be their younger sister, Brett would do his best to change the way she thought about him.Rhett suggested, "It's getting late. How about we say our goodbyes to Lucy before we leave?""Sure."Both of them arrived at the ward and found its door half-opened. They were about to go inside and bid Lucy farewell, but they saw Tobias holding a bowl of warm water. He was wiping Lucy's face and hands attentively.Tobias was supposed to be the CEO of the renowned Ripley Group. It was hard for them to believe that he had such an affectionate and tender side to him. Rhett and Brett were immediately moved by his actions."Is the water too hot, babe?"Lucy shook her head. "Perhaps we should hire a privat

It was dawn now. Anna was a fool and thought that Tobias was going to set her free. She had never dreamed that she was merely being taken to another torture chamber.She was taken to another cold and creepy cell.She sensed that something was wrong and started squirming frantically. "What is this place? Let me out!""Rosa has already given me the recipe for the decoction that makes people infertile. You used it on Lucy, so I'm going to make sure you suffer a much worse fate than she has!"Anna's face turned pale. "No. What are you doing? "He's going to kill me. Please save me!"However, her limbs were cuffed up. Two police officers pinned her down the moment she struggled."It's illegal to kill someone. Why would I do something that idiotic?" Tobias sneered. He waved, and one of the police officers gave him a big iron pot. It contained a freshly made decoction, which gave off a strong herbal smell.Tobias relayed an order coldly. "Feed her the decoction. Make sure she drinks

The bodyguard followed Tobias' orders and continuously inflicted pain on Anna.Tobias was so sleepy during the process that he found a quiet resting place.Two hours later, the bodyguard said, "Mr. Ripley, I've followed your orders. She had fainted after being pushed down the stairs ten times. What do we do now?"Tobias glanced at his watch and said, "I heard there is a cell in prison that holds predators. You know what to do.""But… she will die.""Acquaint yourself with them and tell them she is at their disposal. However, whoever kills her will be responsible for her death.""Okay."Tobias turned to leave, letting the bodyguard handle the rest.The bodyguard looked at Anna, who was covered in bruises. He threw her into prison and made special arrangements according to Tobias' instructions.The men locked in prison were extremely excited when a woman was brought to them. As Tobias had said before, he wanted Anna's life to be a living hell. To say this was cruelty would be

Joey felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She felt guilty and was unable to utter a sound. Her body trembled, but the white coat was loose enough to hide it.Joey intentionally lowered her voice and stuttered, "I-I…"The doctor glanced at the name on the gown white coat. "Oh, you're new. Are you lost?"Joey played along. "Yes…""This is the examination room. No one other than authorized personnel is allowed here. You should leave."Joey thought she had managed to escape. "Okay."She ran, hid in a corner, and threw her clothes into the trash can beside her. Then, she threw Lucy's blood and hair into the toilet and flushed them away.After she finished doing everything, Joey was in a state of shock. It took her a long time to calm down.Joey's eyes twitched as she recalled her impulsive behavior. She clasped her hands and prayed. "Lucy, it's your fault for being barren. I will never let our lineage end with Tobias. I have no choice!"Joey recollected herself a

Please arrange a few househo

Who still passed notes in this day and age? Lucy was surprised. "Can you help me open it, please?" After all, she couldn't move her fingers at all."Sure, Mrs. Ripley." The maid opened the note, and Lucy recognized the handwriting.It said, "Meet me, Lucy. Or else the Ripleys will suffer!"The notes didn't include a name, but Lucy could tell who it was from the handwriting. Her gaze turned cold at the thought of that person.A strong sense of hatred lingered in Lucy's eyes. "Has the person who gave the note left?"Chad was the reason why she had lost her twins, and Anna was the reason why she was now unable to have more children. The feeling of losing her babies and the pain of never becoming a mother were unfathomable. The hatred in Lucy's heart was as vast and deep as the ocean.She would tear Chad to shreds if he was still outside.The maid was afraid to look at the note's contents. She said truthfully, "A boy delivered it, Mrs. Ripley. I asked him not to leave, so he's wai
