A Diamond in Her Own Right Chapter 10 The End
The next day, I arrived to see the Blake Manor decorated with bright lights and colors.An outsider would have assumed there was a celebration happening.Dean sat in the wheelchair with an ashen face and brooding eyes.Although Laura wasn't visibly pregnant, she sat right next to him, deliberately jutting her belly out with a smug look on her face."You have some nerve to come here, Evelyn," Laura spoke in a taunting tone as she stroked her belly. "What? Did you think it through? Are you coming back to be Dean's mistress?"Dean's face darkened. "Laura, I don't mind having your lips sewn shut if you can't keep a civil tongue."She shuddered and cowered for a moment before straightening up as she recalled Wesley's support. "Grandpa, look at them! Such impropriety!"Wesley, who was seated in his high-backed chair, thumped his cane. "What insolence! This is the Blake Manor. Outsiders aren't allowed to do as they wish here!"He glowered at me."Leave the child and get lost, Evelyn.
A Diamond in Her Own Right Chapter 9 Laura's Baby
Dean's words did not make me pause. I did not even bother to spare him a backward glance.…Jason was sitting in my office chair as he read a document. When he saw me return, he placed his file aside and gazed at me with grave eyes. "What is it?"My heart sank, thinking something terrible had happenedHowever, he shook his head, reassuring me as he handed the file to me.I could tell at a glance that it was a DNA paternity test report.According to the data, Laura was pregnant, and the baby was Dean's."That's..."I was quite shocked.Didn't Dean claim he didn't marry Laura, nor did he have a relationship with her?"Men truly are liars."Jason curled his lips into a mocking smile."Anyway, that's not what I wanted to discuss. It seems that she told Old Mr. Blake that you caused Dean's accident and broke her fingers. He then declared that you would be blacklisted in a fit of rage. "He also stated that he was stealing Candice away as compensation."When I heard they wanted
A Diamond in Her Own Right Chapter 8 Dean's Diamond Ring
Things played out just as Jason expected.Dean did not let up at all.My phone rang while I was treating a patient.I'd gotten a call from an unknown number.When I answered, I heard Dean's hoarse and raspy voice."Eve… I wronged you… Can you please... visit me? Just one visit. Please...." he begged and pleaded with me, groveling like a pitiful mutt.A few moments of silence passed before I finally replied, saying, "Dean. You want to see me? Fine. Let's meet on the roof. I'll wait for you there."There was an icy gleam in my eyes as I ended the call.The wind on the roof was strong that day. My coat loudly fluttered in the wind.Dean stumbled up the stairs with the support of crutches. His forehead was covered in sweat.Even so, he persistently made it up to the roof.His eyes lit up when he saw my silhouette. "Eve!"He scrambled over to me, reaching out to grab my hand.I slid away, dodging him while glaring at him."Stand there and don't move. Take one more step, and I'

Dean froze once more.He dazedly stared at me with eyes so blank that it seemed like his soul was stolen away."I-Impossible… You still loved me when you went to Loasia. How could you have fallen for someone else so soon? I don't believe it! You're lying to me, aren't you? You're only saying that to get back at me!"Jason walked over and kicked at the hand that was reaching out toward me. "Mr. Blake, don't think so highly of yourself."He wrapped an arm around my shoulders and caressed my cheek lovingly as Dean watched in disbelief."When I first met Eve in Loasia, I swore I would treasure her for life. I vowed never to let her suffer. I won't be like a certain someone who refused to realize just how lucky he was and would throw away something precious."Dean slammed his hands against the ground in despair.Fresh blood gushed out of his wound, staining his gown bright red."Throw him back on the bed." Jason turned to bark out orders to the bodyguards after giving Dean a look of
A Diamond in Her Own Right Chapter 6 Candice Isn't Five
"No, don't!" Laura desperately hid behind Dean, terrified out of her mind. "Dean, help me! Save me!"Dean panicked. He did not think Jason would actually make a move. "Don't you dare, Jason! This is a society governed by law! You can't...""By law?" I could not resist laughing.I approached Dean, glaring down at his disheveled state."Did you ever think about the law when you abandoned me in that war zone five years ago? Did you think about the law when you allowed Laura to steal my passport and cut my one route home? Dean, it's payback time."I pulled out my phone and played an audio recording.I had secretly recorded it in the piano room five years ago before I was sent to Loasia."Ugh! Why is the piano cover so heavy? If my fingers are really broken, Dean would definitely be upset. I'll just pin the blame on Evelyn. Let's see how that bitch is going to stay in this house after this!"Laura's voice rang clear and loud.Dean's pupils dilated as he froze."That's..." He stare
A Diamond in Her Own Right Chapter 5 Snapped Fingers
When Jason looked at me, the icy chill in his eyes melted into love."Dear, why are your hands so cold? Did that wretched thing there scare you?"Dean's hand froze, hanging in mid-air, while the proud look on his face shifted to shock."M-Mom?"He stared at Candice's face. His voice was trembling as he noticed how similar she looked to me."Dear?" He glanced at Jason. "Evelyn, what is going on? Who is this bastard? Who is that man?"He looked so much like a man who had caught his wife cheating on him.How absolutely hilarious."You'd best watch your tongue." Jason shot him a glare, grabbing the finger Dean used to point at us. He flexed his wrist lightly, causing a snap to echo through the room."Aah!" Dean screeched in pain as his finger was bent at a horrifying angle. "My hand!"His face was covered in sweat from the pain as he shook from the pain."Dean!" Laura shrieked and darted over while staring at Jason with terror. J-Just who are you? How dare you injure the CEO of
