LOGINEvelyn was taken to the hospital.In the hallway outside the ward, the medical staff deliberately sent over a warm looking head nurse to speak with her. The woman walked up to her, her voice careful and gentle.You saw something disturbing.If you feel unwell anywhere, tell me.Evelyn said nothing.She sat on the bench and turned her head to look at the woman beside her. Seeing her move, the head nurse’s eyes brightened.Good girl, is your head hurting?Evelyn had been about to answer. But when she noticed the hopeful look on the nurse’s face, she chose silence instead.Before this head nurse, three other nurses had already spoken to her.Same hallway. Same bench.No matter what she said, they all assumed she was lying. Then they would return to their colleagues and speak in voices full of pity and concern, saying her condition was serious, that something was wrong mentally.At this moment, the head nurse stood up. With a sympathetic air, she gently patted Evelyn’s hair and straighten
Henry was consumed by remorse. “Xenia…”It was his own failure to judge people.Xenia had been kind her entire life. How could she ever harm a five year old child?He had believed that even the cruelest animals would not hurt their own offspring. Only now did he realize that not every mother loved her child. That woman, just to frame Xenia, had poisoned her own son, forcing Ivor into a full blood replacement and the intensive care unit.And he, in an attempt to compensate Ivor, had chosen to transfer the company shares to the child ahead of time.He had been disastrously wrong.Henry lifted his head, his eyes reddened. “Mrs. Drake… what happened to your parents has nothing to do with Xenia. Please, show mercy and let her go.”Everyone in the circle now knew she was Nicholas Drake’s wife.And Xenia was in her hands.To deal with an unarmed middle aged woman would be effortless for her, easier than crushing an ant.Evelyn said nothing.She took out her phone and calmly opened a photo.I
Henry grasped the doorknob and tried to push the door open.He pressed down.The door did not move.It was locked from the inside.“Xenia?”“Xenia!”Henry called out while twisting the handle again and again. There was no response from inside, and the door would not open.Panic hit him.He was afraid Xenia might do something foolish.“Sir…”“Go get the spare key and open the door immediately!” Henry shoved the tray into the servant’s hands, barked the order, then rushed downstairs.He went to the stairwell and took the internal elevator up to the second floor.When the elevator reached the master bedroom sitting area, Henry ran out at once. He scanned the room, then dashed into the bedroom and saw a woman lying on the bed.He rushed forward, bent down, and was about to soften his voice when he suddenly noticed something
The news broke and shocked both insiders and the public.Compared to the other four major families in New York, all with generations of wealth behind them, the Jordan Group was truly built from nothing by the couple themselves.And Mrs. Jordan had always been known as gentle and magnanimous, her marriage with Mr. Jordan admired as steadfast and enduring.Still, no matter how outsiders speculated, the fact remained.Xenia appeared on camera and publicly reported her husband Henry for tax evasion.The prosecutors moved fast.A special task force was immediately formed to investigate the Jordan Group.The Maybach cruised along the streets of New York.The car radio was broadcasting the same news.Nicholas drove, glancing sideways at Evelyn in the passenger seat.The girl sat with her knees together, holding a tablet in both hands. Her pale fingers scrolled across the screen, reading everything about the Jordan Group.&l
Mr. Jordan would not agree to a divorce.As long as that was the case, no lawyer in New York would take Mrs. Jordan’s divorce lawsuit.And Vance had left again.Xenia looked at Evelyn once more. She pressed her dry lips together. I missed the best chance.Evelyn said nothing.I will go now.Mm. Drive safely.Evelyn did not linger in the hallway. After exchanging the final words with Xenia, she headed into the ward.When she came back out, Gloria had just arrived.Is Vito doing a bit better today?About the same as before. Gloria followed her into the elevator. The doctors are doing rounds right now. The West Family showed up in a huge group. The whole hallway is packed. Anyone who did not know better would think the old man had passed away.Evelyn lifted her eyes to the changing red floor numbers. Sudden displays of devotion. They all want Vito to give them a bigger share in the will.Gloria no
After Henry said that, he left the blood draw room.He did not pause for even a second.Out in the hallway, the anger in his chest had still not subsided. The assistant stood nearby and did not dare speak. Over the years, although Mr. Jordan had his fair share of affairs, his treatment of Mrs. Jordan had always been uniquely indulgent.No matter where he was or what he was doing, as long as Xenia called, he would rush back immediately.Obedient, gentle, coaxing her softly.In all these years, the two of them had never argued. Today was the first time.But—The assistant glanced toward the blood draw room. Madam had always treated him well, and he could not bear to see her suffer. He spoke cautiously, testing the waters. Boss, Madam looks very weak. Do we really need to draw four hundred milliliters?Henry stood there for a long while.He took a deep breath, then said, Have the driver send her home.
