Dahlia tried to lunge at Zoey, but Jordan quickly grabbed her arm.

He had noticed the man in the wheelchair behind Zoey, who was glaring at them with a cold, dark expression.

But Dahlia shook off Jordan’s grip and rushed towards Zoey, raising her hand to strike.

Just as her slap was about to land, Zoey tightened her grip on the woman’s wrist, her voice icy as she said, “Mrs. Harmon, do you want to end up in jail?”

Dahlia glared at her with hatred in her eyes, “Zoey, I’m your mother!”

Yes, hatred.

Her eyes burned with fury, wishing she could tear Zoey apart.

Zoey remained unshaken, her tone indifferent. “I’ve never felt like you were my mother, not once in my life. I’ll ask you again—where have you hidden Grandpa?”

Dahlia jerked her hand away. “I don’t know!”

“Fine. If I find him, I’ll sue you. You’d better not regret this!”

Dahlia nearly ground her teeth to dust. “How could I have such a bastard of a daughter! Not only did you sever ties with us, but now you’re thre

    Jordan looked at Zoey, anger flashing in her eyes, and his pupils contracted for a brief moment. He stammered, "I—I don’t know how Grandpa ended up there." He was confident the servant wouldn’t sell him out, as he had control over the servant’s family. Now, he was relying on the hope that Grandpa would remember their past relationship and wouldn’t reveal the truth. Zoey pushed him away, "When Grandpa wakes up, you’ll be waiting to get arrested!" As was customary, the Harmon couple was taken to the police station for questioning, and Matteo was sent to the hospital for a full examination. Russell sat beside Zoey, placing his hand on her shoulder. "Zoey, Grandpa will be fine." Zoey looked at the frail man lying in the hospital bed and nodded. But deep down, she knew that after the examination, it would be revealed that Grandpa had suffered slight brain damage from the lack of oxygen, which was irreversible. The extent of the long-term effects couldn’t be known until Gra

    The door to the hospital room was pushed open, and Zoey had expected it to be the nurse bringing the billing statement from the previous night. But instead, two unexpected guests walked in: Jordan and Dahlia.Since there were no surveillance cameras inside the villa, the only clue to how Grandpa ended up in the basement was the testimony of the servants. Just last night, two servants had changed their story, revealing that Grandpa had gone into the basement because he didn’t want to leave Zoey. But they were quick to add that they couldn’t speak the full truth for Zoey’s sake, wanting to protect her image.Zoey found their audacity laughable. Clearly, they thought Grandpa would cover for them, assuming that, as a family, they’d avoid airing their dirty laundry. Or perhaps they believed Grandpa would never wake up to tell the truth.Coldly, Zoey asked, "What are you two doing here?"Jordan scanned the room, noting that Russell wasn’t present. He snorted and said stiffly, "Of course we’r

    When Abigail saw Zoey, there was a brief flash of surprise in her eyes. "Zoey, you're here?" Zoey smiled. "Yes, I came to check on Carolyn." "Me too," Abigail replied as she walked over to the bed, glancing at the girl whose complexion had started to regain some color. "She’ll wake up in a few days. I’m really happy. Dr. Z is so amazing, I really admire her." Zoey couldn’t help but sneer inwardly. *Are you sure it’s admiration, and not hatred?* She stood up. "You and Carolyn seem to have a really good relationship. Even after being injured like this, you’re still thinking about her." Abigail sniffed and wiped her nose. "Carolyn and I grew up together, we were very close. It was so painful when she fell down the stairs three years ago and ended up like this. Carolyn was such a lively, cute, and well-loved girl." Zoey patted her shoulder. "Don’t worry, Carolyn will wake up within three days. Let’s give her some rest." Abigail nodded, her eyes flickering with a hint of unw

    Abigail glanced around the room, realizing that there was no one else around. She quickly tried to coax Emilee into handing over the pill. "Emilee, could you give me that thing in your hand?" Emilee quickly scrambled up. "What are you talking about?" "The thing you're holding in your palm," Abigail said sweetly. Emilee shook her head and refused, "This isn’t something good. Of course I can’t give it to you. You want to feed it to Miss Carolyn, don’t you? You want to poison her!" Abigail smiled faintly. "How could that be? It’s just a candy. I thought Carolyn might be waking up soon, so I wanted to give her a piece of candy." Emilee snorted coldly, "Whether it's candy or poison, Mr. Russell can easily test it!" Abigail’s voice turned cold, laced with threat. "Emilee, don’t be foolish and tempt me!" Just then, the door opened. Zoey entered, pushing Russell’s wheelchair. She raised an eyebrow. "Who are you threatening with a drink of poison?" Abigail, who had initially

    It was almost 2 AM.Zoey was nestled in Russell's arms, listening to his heartbeats, which were somewhat quick. She furrowed her brow."Why is your heartbeat so fast? Let me check your pulse. You don’t have any heart problems, do you?" she asked, concerned.Russell chuckled lightly and tightened his hold around her waist. "It's because you're in my arms."Zoey smiled with amusement. "In that case, I should stay away from you. Otherwise, after a while, I’m afraid you'll develop heart disease."But Russell pulled her even closer. "No, I’d rather get heart disease than suffer from lovesickness."Zoey laughed. "How are you so good at sweet-talking? Have you said that to someone else before?""No," he replied seriously. "I’ve only said it to you."Zoey raised an eyebrow, not convinced. "I don’t believe you. With such sweet words, you must have practiced many times.""Is my mouth really that sweet?" Russell teased.Zoey nodded, then shook her head. "Not sure... Let me try again and I’ll give

    The hospital door swung open, and Zoey saw Jordan and Dahlia engaged in a heated argument with the bodyguards, surrounded by onlookers.Zoey’s voice dropped to a firm tone, "What are you doing here?"Jordan raised his chin smugly. "Of course, I’m here to see my father! You’ve already severed ties with the Harmon family. Now, you have no right to stop me from seeing my dad."Zoey sneered, "I might have cut ties with your family, but I still acknowledge my grandfather."Jordan scoffed, "Zoey, don’t forget, I’m now the guardian of the old man!"Zoey didn’t refute this. She couldn’t provide any concrete evidence that her grandfather’s accident was orchestrated by Jordan, so she couldn’t change his guardianship status. Her only hope was for Matteo to wake up and tell the truth about that night’s events. If it involved the Harmon family, she’d have both of them sent to jail and legally take her grandfather away.Jordan gave a cold grunt and strode into the room. Dahlia shot Zoey a disdainful

    For the first time, Russell saw Zoey with such a serious expression, and he could tell that something significant was on her mind. He led her to the sofa, his gaze deep and focused."What’s going on?" he asked, his voice concerned.Zoey recounted the events that had unfolded in the hospital. Russell’s eyes narrowed with anger."They actually dared to threaten you so openly?" he muttered, a dangerous gleam in his eyes.Zoey grasped his hand tightly, a bit hesitant. "Actually, I have an idea, but I’m not sure if it will work."Russell gripped her hand in return, his gaze reassuring. "Tell me. Let’s see what we can do."Zoey explained her plan, and Russell’s eyes lit up with approval. "I think it’s a good idea. We can definitely try it."Russell gently smoothed the furrowed lines of Zoey’s brow with his fingertips. "Your grandfather forgetting some things may actually be a good thing. That way, the Harmon family will think he poses no threat. As long as we haven’t set our plan in motion,

    Zoey's eyes shimmered with a galaxy of emotions. She gently bit her lower lip and nodded slightly.Russell seemed encouraged by her response, and he leaned down, capturing her lips in a deep kiss.At that critical moment, Zoey felt a sudden warmth spread across her.She pushed against his strong chest with both hands. "Russell, wait... wait a second.""I can't wait any longer," his voice trembled, laden with desire.Zoey blinked, her eyes moist, a hint of apology in her gaze. "We have to wait."Russell, his breath ragged, looked at her intently, confusion flashing in his eyes. "What’s wrong?""I... I started my period," Zoey murmured softly.Russell furrowed his brows. "Your period? When did it start? Do you need me to go get something for you?"Zoey couldn't help but laugh at his last question. "Not that kind of period, Russell. I mean my... monthly period. You can’t help with that. Only the sanitary pads can."Realization dawned on Russell, and he buried his face in her neck, chuckli

    The evening sun's afterglow shone through the broken glass into the factory.Nancy knelt on the ground, pleading desperately, "Elliott, please don't hurt her, okay? She's just a five-year-old child."Elliott sneered, "Child? So what? Amiya is sad, none of you can be happy! Amiya is in jail, you all will be buried with her! It's all because of your existence that Dalton lost his mind! What can you compare to Amiya? Dalton is truly blind! What have you all turned Amiya into, such a good, innocent and kind person? Tell me, are you all wrong or not?"Nancy couldn't argue with him, afraid of angering him, as he would do something to harm Nancy."We were wrong, all of us. Elliott, could you please put the knife down? Calm down a bit, what you're doing is not worth it."Elliott pointed a knife at Nancy and said, "Not worth it? It's definitely worth it!

    Dalton was afraid of making Nancy dizzy, so he quickly stopped.In the midst of joy, it is essential to ensure safety and not get carried away.The two of them looked at each other and smiled, their eyes couldn't help but become moist.It was really not easy to come this far.Dalton held Nancy tightly, a 6'2" man burying his face in the crook of her neck, and cried out in suppressed sobs.Nancy patted the man's sturdy back and said, "All the hardships have passed, and we will only get better."Dalton nodded, "It would be fine."Chelsea's call interrupted the two of them. Dalton and Nancy looked over and saw a woman, tears streaming down her face, filled with guilt.Chelsea said, "Nancy, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."Nancy laughed and said, "Whether there were misunderstandings or not, at that moment, we were expressing our normal and true thoughts."Chelsea asked, "Are you blaming me?"Nancy raised an ey

    Dalton looked past her indifferently and gave her an affirmative answer, "Yes!"Amiya simply couldn't accept the fact that she had gone from being a hunter to being the hunted, being manipulated by others."How could this happen? How? Where did it go wrong?" She couldn't believe that her perfect plan had failed.She looked down at the baby in her arms, and it was not Dalton's child at all. Whose child was it?She looked at Sam abruptly, "Whose sperm is this? Whose?"Sam's mouth twitched, "I just randomly picked one, it shouldn't be too bad, right?"There were three types of people who stored sperm in the sperm bank in the past. One type was the highly educated individuals, another type was the wealthy individuals, and the third type was the lower-class individuals.Those low-level workers who couldn't afford to marry a wife, but still wanted to have descendants everywhere, would adopt such a way of behavior.Dalton smirked, "Wo

    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.

    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
