LOGIN"Now you see the consequences of your selfishness? The consequences of your brazen act against me, huh?" Jayden said, pushing Aria hard, causing her to fall to the floor. It was unknown what had hit her calf, causing fresh blood to flow out. The man truly demonstrated his power to control everything. Aria looked up at Jayden. To her, he wasn't human, but a devil with no conscience. Jayden bent down and pulled Aria's chin to look directly into his sharp, eagle eyes. He gripped her jaw tightly. Aria tried to pry his hand away, but it was difficult. In fact, her resistance only made the pain worse. "You've involved everyone in this. If you'd just kept quiet, we could have resolved this peacefully, honey," Jayden said with a lopsided smile. "You're a devil, Jayden," Aria said, her body trembling with uncontrollable anger. "I'll take that as a compliment," Jayden replied, smiling proudly and removing his hand from Aria's jaw. Jayden walked around Aria. "We'll see. One by one, the peo
The atmosphere in the ICU where Elvis was being treated was chaotic. Just moments ago, the middle-aged man had been declared fine, bringing a sigh of relief to the family, but now his condition had worsened. Jane hugged Jayden tightly, unable to bear the sight of her husband struggling between life and death. Seeing the doctors treating him begin to feel overwhelmed, Jayden became pessimistic. The worst case scenario was that his father might not be saved. But wasn't that a good thing for Jayden? Because that was exactly what the young man had hoped for. Since his father fell ill, Jayden hadn't cared at all. Even if the man died, he would be the happiest person. Another obstacle to his plans would be gone. All the care he had shown up to now was just an act. He wanted to appear like a son who loved his father dearly, a son afraid of losing him. And that wasn't difficult, because Jayden had always been putting on an act to cover up the truth. And sure enough, Elvis finally took
Aria never imagined that her decision would hurt so many people. It even cost her mother-in-law her life. So Jane wasn't wrong to blame her. This all happened because of Aria's selfishness. She could only imagine that if she had stayed silent, perhaps he would still be with them. But it was already done. There was nothing Aria could do. "I haven't forgotten, Mrs. Jane. In fact, I'm sure Aria deeply regrets what she did," Andrew said, his voice trembling. "Regretting is useless. My husband won't come back," Jane said, hiding her tears in Jayden's arms. "I'm sorry. I'm truly sorry for what happened," Andrew whispered. "Dad, what are you doing?" Aria asked, confused by her father's behavior. "Andrew, what are you doing?" Anne asked, joining her husband as he knelt before Jane and Jayden. "Dad, wake up! You didn't have to do this!" Aria said, trying to lift her father back to his feet. "Then who's going to do it? You? Are you going to apologize to your husband and in-laws?" Andrew
Wreaths were neatly lined up at the Matthew family's funeral home. Dozens of people began arriving to offer their condolences, including friends, relatives, business associates, and investors of the family. "Mom, please. Don't be like this, poor Dad," Jayden coaxed his mother, who continued to cry while hugging her father's coffin. She looked devastated by her husband's eternal departure. She had fainted countless times and had to be carried to the resting place by several people. And now Jane had lost consciousness again. Jayden had to carry his mother into the room himself, ordering several maids to look after her while he met the continuing arrival of guests. Aria stared blankly at the figure of her father-in-law placed on top of his coffin. Tears fell from her eyes. Aria truly missed her father-in-law. Their relationship might not have been as warm as other in-law-daughter couples, but Elvis had always treated her well. Aria lowered her head to hide her sobs. Until someone
"Hey! What happened to your face?" Viona shouted as she approached Hans as soon as he stepped into her apartment. "Don't ask so many questions! You better get some medicine now and help me treat it!" Hans ordered, sitting down on the sofa. Viona immediately grabbed what Hans needed and quickly carried it to the living room where the man was. A first aid kit and ice cubes to compress Hans's slightly swollen cheek. "Oh my God, your wound is so bad," Viona said, looking as if she was about to cry when she saw Hans's battered face. But she held it in as best she could. Viona didn't want her image as a tough girl to be tarnished by crying, especially in front of Hans. "Ah! Slow down, Viona!" Hans winced in pain as Viona pressed the ice cube against his face quite hard. "Yes, sorry. I didn't mean to," Viona said, feeling a little guilty. The woman meticulously cared for Hans, applying compresses, cleaning the wound, and applying medicine. Viona did everything very carefully so as not
Aria sighed heavily as she looked at her mother, who was now sitting with her head bowed on the edge of the bed. After Andrew left, the woman had only stared at Aria for a moment without saying anything before leaving. Aria could see the disappointment in the woman who had given birth to her, but she still defended Aria. This was heartbreaking. Her mother shouldn't have had to do that. Aria was completely innocent. Aria only caught up to Anne after a few minutes. The woman let the situation calm down. Wouldn't it be easier to talk with a cool head? The woman's steps were heavy as she approached her mother. The last time Aria had seen her mother cry was at her wedding, and it was because she was happy, not like now; she was crying because she was disappointed. "Mom..." Aria called softly, causing her mother to turn around. Seeing Anne reach out her hand, Aria immediately hugged her. She cried loudly like a child complaining about a fight with a friend. "I'm sorry, Mom... sob. I r
"Tara!" Aria called."Yes, Ma'am," Tara said as she arrived in front of Aria. The young woman was somewhat surprised by the situation. Aria was crying and Hans looked listless."Please escort Mr. Hans out," Aria said, leaving without waiting for Tara's response.Hans could only sigh heavily as Aria
"Nobody," Hans denied, then put his phone in his pocket, as otherwise the woman might snatch it by force. Viona was indeed a bit aggressive when she was curious."From your girlfriend, huh?" Viona guessed excitedly, her characteristic teasing tone."If so, why?" Hans asked back. Unexpectedly, this
Viona followed behind the man. "Something like what?" she asked, teasingly. "Come on, Hans! What kind of thing?" The woman clung to Hans until he finally grew tired of Viona's annoying behavior. Hans turned to look at Viona, who was still grinning. 'Looks like it'll be fun to play a little prank
A flash of anger and disappointment flashed through Elena's brown eyes. Her grip on the glass tightened.The woman took a deep breath before speaking again."Your family's closeness truly makes me jealous," Elena said with a smile that she forced to mask her rising emotions. "Then if you'll excuse
