Russell wore a long black cashmere coat, which made his originally pale face even fairer.He glanced at Gilberto's attire, his thin lips slightly curved, his obsidian-like eyes seemingly smiling, "Zoey has something to do, let me accompany you to the hospital."Gilberto nodded slightly and said, "Then you troubled yourself.""Not a problem, you saved Zoey, and we are all very grateful to you," Russell asked, "Can we leave now?""Sure."Russell turned around and walked towards the elevator, and the smile on Gilberto's face instantly disappeared.His eyes were filled with coldness, like a hawk in the dark night, wanting to kill its prey with a single strike.He followed closely behind.In the elevator, two people stood side by side, with similar heights, giving off a strong sense of oppression.After getting out of the carriage, two tall and handsome men walked one after the other, attracting the attention of many people.After getting on the car, Russell glanced at Gilberto in the pass
Russell brought Zoey to the famous old street in Woodmerrow.As the New Year approached, the already bustling old street became even more lively.Zoey looked outside at the street view with some surprise, and then looked at Russell, "How did you come here?""I took you to an interesting place."Zoey searched through her mind for a list of interesting places she had explored. "Making sugar figurines? Pearl diving? Painting oil umbrellas? Antique hunting? Escape rooms? Fruit wine brewery?""None of them were.""..."Russell got out of the car and opened the door for her. He held her hand and walked down towards the direction of the ancient street alley, embracing her."Are you trying to kidnap me, all secretive like that?" Zoey asked, looking up."I wanted to lure you into my heart, where you could never escape."Zoey pursed her lips and smiled, "Why is your mouth so sweet?""Do you want to give it a try?"Zoey laughed out loud and said, "I hate it!"The two of them had a good appearanc
Zoey struggled to open her eyes and saw that Russell had already fallen to the ground.She reached out her hand towards the man, but her fingers were stepped on by a black leather shoe.A piercing pain shot through, causing her to furrow her brow.She wanted to see who had attacked them.But her eyelids were too heavy, and she fell into a coma.In a dimly lit room.The woman knelt beside the sleeping man, her slender fingers caressing the buttons of his shirt, unfastening them one by one."Finally, you were mine."The man suddenly opened his eyes and saw the familiar face of a woman.His eyes were filled with murderous intent as he reached out and grabbed the woman's neck. "Abigail, it's you!"Abigail felt a strong suffocation, she felt like her neck was about to be strangled.She kept slapping the man's hands with both of her hands. When she noticed that the man's grip was getting stronger, she used her nails to dig into the back of his hand and his arm, causing fresh blood to spill
Gilberto supported her shoulder and said, "I had no need to deceive you!"Zoey struggled to push him away, "I don't believe a single word you said!"In the previous life, Russell was so devoted to her. So, it was impossible that he would betray her.Something must have happened. Gilberto's suspicion was very high.Zoey stared at the man warily, "How come it's such a coincidence that you showed up? Russell wants to control someone, and you're the one who can stop him? And Abigail, a woman who harmed her own niece, how could she catch Russell's attention? It must be your conspiracy! What did you do to him?"Gilberto's eyes were hurt. "I know it's hard for you to accept, but what I'm saying is the truth. If I really wanted something bad to happen to you, Russell, why would I have saved you and him in the first place? Wouldn't it be easier to just let you both die? Why go through all this trouble?"This was also the part that Zoey couldn't understand, "Where is my phone?""I was afraid of
Zoey incredulously watched as the man's head kept spinning while he was kissing the woman.Her heart ached so much that she couldn't breathe, and her body staggered backwards.If it weren't for Gilberto steadying her, she would have fallen to the ground.Her lips trembled, and no matter what, she couldn't believe that Russell would betray her, betray the feelings between them.In her past life, Russell killed himself for her.In this lifetime, Russell also did his best for her.How did it change so quickly?Zoey couldn't understand, she didn't give up, really didn't give up.She broke free from Gilberto's support and reached out to grab Russell's shirt.The shirt was half torn off, revealing shallow and deep scratch marks on the man's back.The scratches were particularly eye-catching, causing her eyes to sting.Russell looked back, a mischievous smile playing at the corner of his lips."I never knew you had a hobby of watching others being intimate. If I had known earlier, I would ha
Russell eventually accompanied Abigail to the hospital.Dalton was puzzled when he saw Abigail, and he called Russell out while the woman was tending to her wound.As good friends for over a decade, he asked directly, "What's the situation between you and Abigail? And Zoey?"Russell did not want anyone to know or be involved in this matter, after all, Gilberto was an extremely dangerous person.He smirked and said, "As you can see, I fell in love with Abigail, I got tired of playing with Zoey."Dalton couldn't believe he received such a response. "Damn it, Russell, are you crazy? Abigail had poisoned Carolyn. How could you possibly like such a ruthless woman? Zoey is beautiful, kind-hearted, and anyone with a brain would choose her. Are you out of your mind?"Russell didn't mind and took out a cigarette from the cigarette case. He lit it up and took a deep drag, blowing a smoke ring towards Dalton. "Dalton, if you like Zoey, then go after he
Not many people knew the password to her house, Zoey's heart skipped a beat as she abruptly stopped crying and turned her head to look back.When she saw the person coming, a bitter smile curved at the corner of her lips.It was not Russell, but Leanna.Thought I was waiting for the one who would return, but it turned out that the one who would return had already become a stranger.Leanna took off her shoes and walked quickly over, squatting down to hug Zoey."Zoey, I would always be there."After Leanna found out about Russell's infidelity online, she immediately returned.She knew that Zoey must have been very, very upset, and she wanted to be by Zoey's side.She didn't say anything, she just held Zoey, who was crying nonstop.After a while, Zoey finally spoke in a low voice, "I spent the whole afternoon looking for evidence of our past love. There is a lot of evidence proving that we were in love. Leanna, you know tha
When Zoey woke up, it was already late at night.She looked at the fluffy head beside her and her lips curved slightly upwards.Leanna once said that men were unreliable, and only best friends were true love.Zoey also joked about fire prevention, theft prevention, and preventing best friends.The only one accompanying her at the moment was her best friend.She glanced at the nearly empty drip bottle, reached out and pressed the button.Although the movement was slight, the sleeping person still felt it.Leanna looked up, still half asleep, and instantly became alert. "Don't move, don't move. I'll call the nurse to remove the needle."Zoey felt a little exaggerated, "It's okay, I might just have low blood sugar, I'm not that delicate."Leanna let go of Zoey's hand and said, "You rest and don't move around."She pressed the bell, and soon a nurse came and removed the needle.Because it was the last round of
The Jenkins family invited the big shots from the upper class circle to their full moon banquet, and most of them came to the party with the intention of just watching the excitement.After all, who doesn't love to eat the melon of a wealthy family?The Blevins family, who were once expelled from overseas by Dalton, have also become honored guests and have risen in status, all because the wife who couldn't conceive was abandoned and the mistress, with the birth of a child, managed to turn her life around.People who used to sneer at them in the past, now when they see them, they can't help but nod and flatter them.The banquet hall was lavishly decorated, with photos and videos of the little baby playing on the LED big screen. Dalton was greeting the guests with Amiya, going around.Everyone treated her politely and called her Mrs. Jenkins.Only the Jenkins family and the Blevins family knew that Dalton and Nancy had not yet obtained a divorce certificate.Dalton's excuse was that Nan
Nancy held Nacy in her arms, watching all of this coldly. Chelsea, who had once treated her like a daughter, became hysterical in that moment.The people around kept pointing and whispering."This woman actually targeted a pregnant woman. She is truly wicked!"Anyway, the child was innocent!"You saw how she hurt the pregnant woman, and she didn't feel any guilt at all. This kind of person should be cyberbullied!""That's right! Send photos, send videos to her and upload them online!"***Nacy tightly held onto Nancy's neck, fear evident in her eyes. "Mom, I'm scared.""Don't be afraid, I would protect you."Chelsea looked as Amiya's skirt became stained with blood, and she felt a sense of unease. She directed her anger towards Nancy and said, "Nancy, you wanted to exterminate the Jenkins family, didn't you? You and this bastard have truly destroyed the Jenkins family!"Bastard?As soon as this word came out, the onlookers all imagined a grand drama of a wealthy family."Could it be t
Nancy looked at Dalton and asked, "Did your mother have any thoughts of divorcing me now?"Dalton didn't want any rift between the two of them, so he spoke honestly, "There's something, I guess Amiya did some brainwashing on her. But it doesn't matter what anyone thinks, because no one can influence me. The reason why my parents are acting this way is also because Amiya is really good at manipulating people. Nancy, you are in my eyes and in my heart."Nancy sighed lightly, "I know, I won't run away or be cowardly like before. I loved you, and I fought for us, unless one day you didn't want me anymore."Dalton's thin lips curved up, "I was really afraid that you would bring up the child and say that you wanted to leave me, and all that. We don't want to reach that point, you know?"Nancy nodded, "We could give it a try first, and if it doesn't work, we can go for in vitro fertilization."Dalton was glad that she was able to open up, and he embraced her in his arms. "Good. It's coming s
Carolyn, sitting in a wheelchair, twitched at the corner of her mouth, "Can that be done?"Carsen chuckled, "Of course not, I was just kidding with you."Carolyn pouted, "At a time like this, you still feel like joking?"Carsen raised her hand and rubbed her head, "My darling is going to be a mother, just kidding with you."Carolyn looked up and smiled, but in the next second, a wave of pain hit her, and Carolyn's face suddenly changed."Ouch, ouch, ouch! It seems like I was about to give birth!"Carsen hurriedly pushed Carolyn towards the elevator.Russell and Zoey followed behind, but their pace was slightly slower. By the time they arrived, Carsen and Carolyn had already gone up in the elevator.Russell took a deep breath, and Zoey looked at him with amusement. "Are you nervous?""Indeed, a little bit, I can't imagine what it would be like when you gave birth."Zoey held his hand and said, "Don't worry, nothing would happen."After a day of turmoil, Carolyn and Carsen's daughter wa
Eugene glared at Dalton and said, "You idiot! How could you say such a thing?"Dalton sneered, "Isn't this what you were doing? Treading carefully, ultimately pushing me into a corner and forcing me to surrender!"Eugene gritted his teeth and almost spat out the words from between his teeth, "Your attitude towards me is absolutely outrageous!""Sorry!" Dalton stood up, adjusting his cufflinks. "I couldn't do any of the things you mentioned. You can have Amiya live wherever you want, even if it means she moves into the Jenkins's manor, I won't object. With or without her, with or without me!"After saying that, Dalton directly pulled the door and left.Eugene looked at the closed door and lit a cigarette.He believed that everything he was doing now was for the good of Dalton. Being unfilial has no future, so are all the industries of the Jenkins family going to be donated in the future? Of course, there must be his own flesh and blood to inherit them!He felt that Dalton would start w
Nancy and Dalton returned to the room, and Dalton, worried that she was angry, immediately approached and embraced her."Nancy, I beg you, please don't leave me.""That night, I really had no recollection. I had already taken precautions, worrying that something might happen, but unexpectedly, it still did.""I knew that no woman could accept the fact that her husband had an illegitimate child. I had already told my parents that I would give up the Jenkins family's wealth. They can give it to whoever they want, because I will never acknowledge this child.""Nancy, I couldn't be without you. Don't think about giving up on our relationship just because you're having difficulty getting pregnant. My child can only be born from you, I won't acknowledge Amiya's child!""Nancy..."Dalton blurted out all his inner thoughts, how could Nancy possibly remain indifferent.She gently patted the man's back, "Dalton, I didn't say I want to leave you
Nancy noticed the panic in Dalton's eyes, and then her gaze fell on Amiya's small belly."Dalton, she was pregnant with your child, right?"Dalton furrowed his brow as he tried to grasp her hand, but Nancy evaded him."Dalton, was that the time she got pregnant? You didn't do anything about it, did you?""No, Nancy, I handled it. I didn't expect her to get pregnant either," Dalton quickly explained. "Nancy, we are doing a paternity test, and the results will be out soon."Nancy closed her eyes and said, "Dalton, let me have some peace and quiet."At that moment, Amiya walked over, her hand resting on her abdomen.Amiya's pregnancy was already showing after five months, especially when she wore a fitted beige long dress, making her protruding belly even more noticeable.Nancy felt a slight stinging sensation in her eyes, but she couldn't show it in front of Amiya.She asked, "When did the result come out?"Dalton g
After leaving the Jenkins's manor, Dalton did not go home but went to a bar.He drank one cup after another, using alcohol to drown his sorrows.When Russell and Toby arrived, he was leaning against the back of the sofa, looking utterly despondent.They were all dressed in casual clothes, clearly indicating that they had rushed over from home.Russell asked, "What happened? Did Craig come back to life and Nancy doesn't want you anymore?"Toby chuckled, "Your mouth was going to kill me!"Russell clicked his tongue and said, "So, what could possibly have happened to him?"Toby raised an eyebrow, "Well, there was no other possibility."Dalton raised his hand and covered his eyes, "Amiya has returned."Russell squinted his eyes and said, "Could it be that you brought the ball back, which is why you are so down?"Dalton lowered his arm and looked at the two of them. "She was five months pregnant, it should have been th
Amiya knelt and looked up at Dalton, shaking her head, her face covered in tear stains, "No! Dalton, this was your child!"Dalton coldly stated, "This is not my child! My child can only be born by Nancy!"Amiya pleaded with Chelsea, "Chelsea, I heard that Nancy couldn't conceive anymore, can you bear to see the Jenkins family become extinct?"Chelsea furrowed her brows and clenched her fists.Amiya continued, "I was the only bloodline of Dalton. I heard that Dalton adopted the child of his rival, and if this child grows up and learns about their origins, about the death of their parents and their connection to Nancy and Dalton, will she truly treat every member of the Jenkins family with sincerity?"Dalton grabbed her throat and said, "Shut up!"Eugene stepped forward and grabbed his wrist, "Dalton, let go! I didn't want the Jenkins family to end up in a tragedy!"Dalton's hand exerted force, and Eugene's hand also exerted force.
