Chapter 101

Just as Anne was trying to make sense of the situation, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.A group of women barged in, led by a short, curvy woman dressed in a black dress adorned with diamonds along the neckline and cuffs. She had a luxurious bag in her hand.The women behind her were also dressed in designer clothes, their jewelry sparkling under the lights.As soon as they entered and saw Anne, their expressions turned contemptuous, while the woman in the lead was visibly furious."I knew it! He really is sneaking around behind my back!" She gritted her teeth.Anne was still bewildered. "Who are you?""If you're going to seduce my husband, shouldn't you at least find out who his wife is first?""No, I don't understand what you mean.""Playing dumb, huh? Let me open your eyes, then!" With that, the woman threw her bag onto the floor and lunged at Anne.Although caught off guard, Anne's reflexes kicked in, and she quickly stepped back. However, she accidental

Julia clenched her teeth, the veins on her forehead bulging. "That pair of shameless scumbags! Just wait and see how I deal with them!"At noon, after Jenny finished filming, she met up with Anne.Seeing the two messages sent from her phone, Jenny was so furious that she nearly smashed her lunchbox."Who? Who the hell took my phone while I was filming? Just wait till I catch them!"Anne urged her to stay calm. "It must've been someone from the crew, acting under Melanie's orders. But don't worry about it—at the end of the day, I wasn't the one who got screwed over.""What do you mean?""I gave Mrs. Lewis the photos of their affair."Jenny gasped dramatically. "Oh, this is going to be a show!"That afternoon, videos and photos of Julia storming in to catch Sean cheating—only to mistakenly target Anne—spread online, quickly trending on social media. Though the posts were soon taken down, the controversy had already ignited the public.Sophia's fans, hyped up like they were on st

"Who was that?" Jenny asked when she noticed Anne's expression change.Anne put her phone down. "Just some stranger."With that, she hung up and immediately blocked the number.Jenny scooted closer and put an arm around her. "See now? Just because you want to cut ties with them doesn't mean they'll let you go. People like them bully the weak and fear the strong. "If you back down, they'll think you're a pushover and will come at you harder."Anne shook her head. "I still don't like getting tangled up with those crazy people. But if they come at me again, I won't hold back."She stayed with Jenny for another night.The next day, before leaving, Anne made a point to stop by the set and apologize to Stanley. After all, because of their conflict with Melanie, the production team had been forced to take on extra work. That was an undeniable fact.Stanley took a drag of his cigarette and waved a hand. "I should be thanking you—you saved my career's final stretch."Anne was confus

Just as Anne reached her doorstep, the gate of the villa across the street swung open, and Sophia stormed over, seething with rage."Anne! You were the one who leaked those photos and videos online, weren't you? Are you having me followed? What do you want from me? Is it because I took Zachery from you? Do you hate me so much that you need revenge? "Why can't you just let me go? Are you happy now that you've ruined me?" Sophia practically screamed, her voice shrill and hysterical.Anne frowned. "First, I didn't have you followed—I have better things to do. Second, you didn't 'take' Zachery from me. I didn't want him anymore."And lastly, I'm not the one refusing to let go. You were the one who schemed against me first. I merely fought back."With that, Anne turned to enter her villa. But Sophia suddenly lunged forward, grabbed a handful of rose petals, and yanked them off violently. The three bouquets tumbled to the ground, their petals scattering everywhere."Buying yourself

Sophia froze for a moment before slowly turning her head. When she saw Carol standing there, she immediately pressed her lips together tightly.Carol's face had already darkened, her fists clenched. But she didn't want to lose her composure in front of Anne, so she gritted her teeth and said, "You. Go back inside."Sophia didn't dare say another word. She shot Anne a hateful glare before quickly turning around and retreating.Carol motioned for Agatha to follow her inside, then turned to Anne. "So, you've known all along that Sophia's child isn't Zachery's?"Anne exhaled. "What difference does it make?""If you knew, you should have told me sooner! I never would have let Zachery marry her! Even if… Even if he had to marry you instead!""Huh?" This family's logic was truly something else."I know you still love Zachery. After all, you've been together for eight years," Carol continued."What nonsense are you talking about?" Anne asked."But you need to control yourself. You're

"Anyway, my dad has an illegitimate son out there. It's not like you don't know," Zachery said.Carol was so furious that she nearly fainted. Fortunately, Agatha came out just in time to catch her."Mr. Zachery, saying something like that is like stabbing Mrs. Judd right in the heart. Please, don't say such things.""I-I really raised him for nothing. What hope do I even have left?" Carol started crying in anger.Agatha, worried she might get even more upset, quickly helped her inside.Zachery turned and kicked the wall behind him hard. Then, as if something had just occurred to him, he looked up toward the second floor of the villa across from his.He caught sight of Anne pulling her curtains closed. She didn't even glance at him.…The next morning, Anne went for a jog, running a full lap around the neighborhood.On her way back, she picked up a bouquet of roses from the front gate—having fresh flowers in the house always put her in a good mood for the day.But just as she

The old house wasn't far from Fortuna Restaurant. It was just a ten-minute taxi ride away.Anne got out at the entrance of the alley leading to Fortuna Restaurant.It was already past lunchtime, so the street vendors had packed up, and the once-bustling alley had quieted down.Fallen autumn leaves scattered the ground, lending the scene a sense of everyday tranquility. She walked leisurely, enjoying the peaceful afternoon.Suddenly, a tall man, clearly drunk, stumbled down the alley.At first, Anne didn't pay him any attention, but as they got closer, the man suddenly lurched toward her."Hey, beautiful, wanna—wanna have a drink?" The man grinned at her, slurring his words.Anne frowned and stepped around him, continuing on her way. "Don't go! Come on. I'll treat you." The drunk man blocked her path again, even reaching out to grab her."Keep me company. I'll pay you," he said, patting his pants pocket as if to emphasize his point.Anne wrapped her coat tighter around hersel

Chapter 108

Kathy couldn't help but sigh when she mentioned Andy."When Charles and I got together, he hadn't gotten into trouble yet. He was tall, well-built, and looked cool but actually loved to laugh and was incredibly loyal."He was also the first one to find Harvey when he ran away from home, but since he had to rush to his night shift, he told Charles to take him in instead."By this point, Kathy's eyes had already turned red."Back then, his younger sister was sick. None of you knew?" Anne asked."At that time, Charles' family also ran into some trouble. He and I had to rush back to our hometown, and Darren had gone to be an apprentice somewhere, only coming home once every ten days or so."That left just Harvey at home—he was only 15 years old. Andy must have thought there was no point in telling him since he wouldn't have been able to help."So later, after what happened to Andy, even though Harvey never said anything, he must have felt guilty deep down. After all, if he had just

"Anne, we're just playing for fun. It doesn't matter if you lose," Liam said, pulling Anne into a seat."Alright." Anne nodded."Let's see who loses the most in the end. The biggest loser… has to bark like a dog and post it online!" Jeffrey suggested excitedly."Get lost! Don't scare her," Josephine shot him a glance.Jeffrey pouted. "What's the big deal? Don't tell me you can't handle a little fun.""Go on. If you want to bark, then bark. I promise I'll make you go viral." Liam smirked.Jeffrey clicked his tongue but refused to give up. He tilted his chin at Anne. "Anne, do you dare to play?"Anne shrugged. "Sure. I'm fine with it.""Hey, Anne agreed! You two had better not back out now!"Liam gave her a worried look, but Anne just smiled. "I know how to play poker. I shouldn't lose too badly.""Your knowing how is different from theirs. They read opponents.""Really? How?"Liam sighed, already regretting calling her over. But it was fine—worst case, he'd go easy on her.

Jeffrey dragged Liam off to play video games, even saying he'd crash at his place for the night. That left Anne to see Josephine off."I drove here. Do you need a ride?" Josephine asked."I'm staying here tonight, but thanks," Anne replied with a smile.Josephine nodded. "I heard you're a doctor?""Yes, but I'm not working at a hospital right now.""Then, what are you doing now?" Josephine asked."Well… I guess you could say I'm unemployed."Josephine smiled. "In that case, would you be willing to help me with something?""What is it?"Josephine explained, "My first drama as a screenwriter and producer is about to start filming. Since it has a lot of dangerous action scenes, I'd like to have a doctor on set. Would you be interested?""I'm an OB-GYN, so…"Josephine persuaded, "Mr. Marshall is my mentor. He mentioned you to me, saying your herbal tea for cooling down is great."Don't worry. We've taken all the necessary safety precautions, so there shouldn't be any major acci
