In a box filled with the aroma of coffee, Zoey stood at the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down. A woman with a flustered expression looked around from time to time. There was something wrong with her."Idiot!" Zoey rolled her eyes in disdain. If the stupid woman weren’t helpful, she would not have condescended to meet a maid privately.A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door, and Zoey immediately put on a friendly smile and said softly, "Come in."It was the maid Emma who walked in.Emma sat in front of Zoey cautiously and asked in a low voice, "Miss Zoey, what can I do for you?"Zoey took a bank card from her wallet and put it in front of Emma with a smile, "This is a deposit of 100,000, and I will give you 100,000 when things are done.Emma stared at the bank card without blinking. This huge sum of money would be enough for her to spend for a long time. It was so tempting.But she knew Zoey wouldn't give her the money for free, so she asked, "What do you want me to d
The luxury car galloped wildly on the road.Burgess ran through more than a dozen red lights in one breath. He looked at the curled-up woman through the rearview mirror, and his heart tightened.This was a feeling he had never had before."Oprah, it's okay. We'll be at the hospital soon..." Burgess whispered as if comforting himself and Oprah, and his voice was trembling.Oprah was in great pain, and she was sweating profusely. Her clothes were soaked in cold sweat.Her consciousness became increasingly unclear, and she vaguely felt that someone was holding her tightly in his arms and running, and there was an anxious, irritable, and hoarse voice screaming something in her ear."Doctor! Doctor! Come out!" Burgess rushed into the corridor and shouted.Seeing Oprah being put on the hospital bed and pushed into the emergency room, Burgess held her hand tightly and wanted to go in together, but was stopped by a nurse in the next second, "Sir, I can understand your feelings, but the hospit
Zoey was in a bad mood. She hadn't expected the baby in Oprah's belly to survive, making Burgess love her even more.Damn bitch!Zoey threw a cup on the floor in resentment, and suddenly her phone rang. It was Emma calling. She glanced at it and finally answered it.Emma's eager voice came from the other end of the phone, "Miss Zoey, I have done it according to your instructions. When will you give me the remaining 100,000?"Zoey sneered as if hearing a big joke, "You screwed it up. The baby in Oprah's belly didn’t die. How dare you ask me for money? You're an idiot!""You..." Emma was angry and anxious, "Miss Zoey, we agreed. If I let Miss Oprah fall, you will give me the remaining 100,000! The butler has fired me. Even if I failed to make Miss Oprah have a miscarriage, shouldn't you compensate me?""Well, you were fired, but what does it do with me? You did it all by yourself from the beginning to the end. Don't even think about throwing dirty on me."Zoey didn't bother to talk to E
As soon as Zoey left the Harrison house, Roxanne went to Burgess’s private villa in a rage.She had never expected that her daughter would be with her stepson and they were having a baby. How could they do such a shameless thing right under her nose?Oprah had just awakened from her nap when she saw Roxanne walk into her bedroom with an angry face. She immediately realized what had happened. Otherwise, how could Roxanne suddenly come to Burgess’s villa?"Are you pregnant with Burgess’s child?" Roxanne's eyes were fixed on Oprah's belly, and her tone seemed very anxious.Oprah said calmly, "Yes."Roxanne's face turned pale. She shivered a little before she stopped abruptly, took a deep breath, and said sternly, "This child can't be born. Abort it tomorrow. I'll accompany you to the hospital."Oprah had known for a long time that Roxanne had no place for her as a daughter in her heart, but she still felt hurt when she heard such cruel words from her mother. Her mother was telling her to
Oprah's tone revealed a hint of dark and unclear stubbornness, which came from a mother's nature to protect her child, and no one could take it away.She hadn't wanted to give birth to the child at first. But when Roxanne forced her to have an abortion, she realized that she couldn't bear to get rid of the life in her belly.She would never let anyone abort this child!Roxanne stared at Oprah for a long time. Seeing the red marks on her daughter’s cheek, she said ruthlessly, "Get rid of the child and leave Burgess, or I will pretend that I never gave birth to you!"With that, Roxanne left the villa without looking back.Oprah stood by the window in a daze, watching Roxanne drive away. She suddenly burst into tears. Tears fell on the back of her hand, blurring her vision quickly.What Oprah didn't expect was that the headlines the next day were all gossip about her being with Burgess, and the maliciousness of the headline was very obvious.Some said that their brother and sister had in
Back at the villa, seeing the slap print on Oprah's face, Burgess unabashedly looked sorry, "What's going on? Who did it?"Oprah was still not used to his concern, so she said nonchalantly, "I accidentally got hurt."Burgess frowned and was about to ask the butler when Oprah shook her head and said, "Forget it."Burgess was unhappy to hear, "Do you think I can't protect you? Or do you not trust me?"Oprah lowered her eyes and remained silent.She didn't want Burgess to conflict with Roxanne. Even if Roxanne had threatened she wouldn't recognize her as her daughter, she couldn't be unfeeling to Roxanne and let Burgess go to argue with Roxanne.But Burgess misunderstood.He pinched Oprah's chin violently, lowered his head, and bit her lips as if confirming something. He kissed her with the tip of his tongue aggressively and passionately.It was rare that Oprah didn't resist and allowed him to kiss her, which finally stabilized Burgess’s inner uneasiness.He stroked Oprah's cheek with a
Sue originally wanted to meet up with Oprah, but Oprah was pregnant, and Burgess kept a close eye on her, not allowing her to go out casually.Sue cursed her brother for being so infatuated with that cunning woman, treating her like a precious gem. But she had no choice but to find Oprah herself at the villa.The two of them sat in the living room on the second floor. The servants brought some tea and snacks and then left them alone.Sue was a no-nonsense woman, always speaking her mind. And this time was no different when she met Oprah. She stared at Oprah sharply and said, "I'm not gonna beat around the bush with you."Oprah nodded, "Just say it straight."Taking a sip of coffee, Sue said, "There's no way Burgess will marry an average woman, let alone his stepmother's daughter. If word gets out, he'll be a laughingstock. Now that you've messed up and got yourself pregnant, if you agree to get rid of the baby, I'll give you a ton of money and even arrange for you to study abroad at t
In the Harrison family's villa.The atmosphere in the spacious living room was tense.Sue's gaze was filled with contempt and coldness as she looked at Roxanne sitting on the sofa. The thought of everyone mocking her brother made her highly uncomfortable, and she wished to drive Roxanne and Oprah out of the house.Back then, her father was fascinated with Roxanne and insisted on marrying her. Now, Burgess was also enchanted by Oprah!Sue was furious and coldly said, "Dad, this situation has become a laughingstock. If we don't do something, it will affect the reputation of our family. No matter what, we can't allow Burgess to marry Oprah!"Old Mr. Harrison knew she made a fair point, but Burgess wouldn't listen. He was even willing to give up inheriting the family wealth for Oprah. What could he do?Helpless, Old Mr. Harrison sighed, and Roxanne remained silent by the side.Sue was seething with anger and glared fiercely at Roxanne, "Like mother, like daughter!"Roxanne's face turned p
