Those words struck Warren like lightning. He immediately froze to the spot.Many seconds later, he finally said, "What are you saying?""Xena said that she saw that the woman who abandoned the child had a mole on her forehead. The housekeeper who worked for your mother also has an identical mole at that spot. Warren, could it be that Evie—"Warren didn't wait for Simon to finish speaking before saying, "No, Evie is the daughter of Sonya and Johnny, not Iris. I will investigate this matter thoroughly. Please don't tell Evelyn yet, Mr. Jefferson."Upon hearing this, Simon's tense heart finally relaxed. He sighed and said, "I hope this has nothing to do with your mother. Or else, you and Evie would be…"He couldn't imagine what would happen if Iris had ordered someone to abandon a child. He wondered if Sonya's death had something to do with her.If that was true, then it meant that Evelyn should despise Warren for the death of her mother.How could they end up together?After hang
Warren hugged Evelyn so tightly that she couldn't breathe.She had never seen Warren so unlike himself before. In her memories, no matter what happened, he was always the lord pulling the strings behind the scenes.But now, he looked like an anxious child, pestering her for assurance.Evelyn didn't know what made Warren so nervous. She rubbed his head gently and said in a warm voice, "Okay, I won't leave."Ever since he risked his life to save her father, she had made up her mind. She was afraid that she might never leave Warren in this lifetime.Looking into the resolute eyes and hearing her gentle, comforting words, Warren couldn't hold back anymore. He pulled her into his arms and kissed her.This time, he kissed her with intense emotions. He pressed their lips together impatiently as though he wanted to swallow Evelyn whole.The fierce kiss left Evelyn breathless. She felt Warren lock lips with her repeatedly like a madman. Every turn of their heads felt like a goodbye.The
Warren clearly remembered that his mother had a sketch of this necklace in her drawer. It was identical down to the shape and number of the diamonds.When he was younger, he had been drawn to this necklace. He found it very beautiful. He always thought that it would look gorgeous on someone's neck.When his mother saw that he was fixated on the necklace, she smiled and rubbed his head. She said kindly, "I designed this for the little girl in Aunt Sonya's belly. Consider it a token of affection from you to her. Do you think it's pretty?"He had felt shy at the time, but he still nodded with a smile.Afterward, Sonya got in an accident, and no one brought up the necklace again.Maybe it had been a promise that was just between his mother and Sonya, and no one else knew about it.So, if Sonya had been holding onto his tightly before she died, what did that mean?Warren felt his chest tighten. He immediately went to the window and opened it, taking in the fresh air from outside.Hi
At the sight of Evelyn, Remy waved her arms and legs excitedly.Tammy smiled and said, "See how much she likes you? She doesn't even get this excited when she sees her father.""Who said so? My daughter loves me the most. She pees and poops on me every day," Ezra said, slightly jealous.After sharing a few laughs, they walked toward Warren's room. There, they found him smoking alone on the balcony.Evelyn went up to him and snatched the cigarette from his fingers. She stubbed it in the ashtray before opening the windows to air out the room. Coldly, she reproached him. "Didn't the doctor tell you not to do that? I won't care if your injuries heal properly or not."Ezra also vented his anger. "That's right, stop caring about him. People like this aren't worthy of others' concern. No wonder he hasn't gotten married until now, unlike myself. I always listen to my wife and never do things that she hates. Isn't that right, babe?"Tammy glowered at him. "I asked you to visit your sick f
Evelyn felt something hot press against her back.Warren pressed his lips all over her body. Every inch of her skin that he kissed felt like it was on fire.She closed her eyes bitterly and pushed Warren aside. "It's the middle of the day. What are you doing?"Seeing her teary eyes, Warren's heart ached. "You love children. But because of my carelessness, our child died. I just want to make things up to you."Evelyn felt a lump in her throat. She forced herself to speak. "Warren, if I—"She wanted to say, "If I couldn't have kids", but the sound of her phone ringing interrupted her. Seeing that it was Seth calling, she immediately answered.However, she heard a child's voice instead. "I miss you, Aunt Evelyn."Evelyn immediately hid her emotions. Smiling, she replied, "I miss you too. Who are you with right now, Albert?""I'm with Mom and Dad. Dad is making us breakfast."Upon hearing this, Evelyn smiled in relief. It seemed like Seth had finally moved on from her and was now
Evelyn never knew that to get Jennifer to agree to work with him, Warren had stood in the snow for an entire night.A weird emotion filled Evelyn's heart.She was heartbroken for Warren, but more than that, she was touched by everything he did.She kept her emotions out of view and smiled at Jennifer. After that, she said, "Thank you for telling me about this. I pray that you and Seth will get back together soon."Jennifer grinned and replied, "Sometimes, getting back together needs more than just courage. We also need someone who is willing to work hard for it selflessly."Ms. Jefferson, have you still not sensed that there is something wrong with Warren's legal case in Frawser?"Upon hearing those words, Evelyn frowned a little. She asked, "What do you mean?""I'm just saying. Warren loves you so much. How is it possible that he let other women have the opportunity to get close to him? Does he really strike you as the kind of guy who would lose all sense after drinking too muc
The video was from the hotel in Frawser. It showed the night that Warren was framed.He had drunk too much and was completely out of it while in bed. However, when Laine tried to get close to him, he would move away from her.Their skins never even touched the entire time.Everything was a show that Laine had put on.That meant Jennifer had guessed right. Warren's case was to help lift Evelyn's career from the bottom.However, Warren himself lost a fortune because of that.Warren grew up leading a luxurious lifestyle. Yet, he had to stay locked in the humid, dark prison for over ten days. He even had to adhere to the rules that the crime boss set.He lowered his stance and sacrificed himself to help her get back to the top.Evelyn had to admit that without Warren's case, it'd take her at least six months to return to the spot she was once in.It was even possible that the others in the industry would forget all about her after more time had passed. If that were to happen, it w
Just then, Tim entered the house to report."Mrs. Larkin Senior, the members of the Miles family are here. Mrs. Miles Senior is here in person, and Ms. Sullivan is with her."A hint of hatred flashed past Bonnie's gaze.She had developed a distaste toward Clara since finding out about the latter's attempt at conning them.At first, Bonnie planned to kick Clara out. However, the former didn't expect the latter to come along with Sally.The two families were friends for generations.There was no way Bonnie could kick anyone out if Sally had come in person.Bonnie immediately got up and replied, "I'll welcome them."She had just left the house when she saw Clara in a light blue dress. The latter was hugging Sally as they walked toward the house.Sally's innocent face remained lit with a sweet smile."Mrs. Larkin Senior, my grandmother and I are here to wish you a happy birthday. May your year be filled with joy."Bonnie made her way over while smiling. She held Sally's hand and
