"Still, you should probably avoid talking about her and that man’s affair too much—it’s all about public perception.""Oh, I know," Carrie replied. "It’s just us chatting! Her PR team already released a statement denying everything, but the netizens aren’t buying it. Some media outlets are still camping outside the hospital, trying to confirm if she was really pregnant and got dumped. My friend has always marketed herself as pure and innocent—this scandal needs to be cleaned up ASAP!"She straightened up in her chair."If you can fix this, my friend will definitely send you a huge red envelope!"Mia hesitated for a moment, clearly tempted."No need for that," she finally said, pretending to be selfless. "I just know this has been stressing you out, so I want to help.""Mia, you’re the best!"Carrie blew several kisses into her phone."Be honest, Mia—do you read fortunes or something? Everything you say always comes true!"Mia smirked mysteriously."That’s not something I can discuss."
Ernest gritted his teeth. “A young girl meddling in our affairs and even exposing the Crawford family.”“Another young girl,” Mr. Crawford sneered, his voice filled with hostility. Leaning on his cane, his gaze turned dark. “I don’t care what method you use, you must ensure that someone is still issuing birth certificates. And those doctors—we need them. They’re the ones in the hospitals, and they know the channels better than anyone.”“They’ve been urging us for fresh goods more frequently.” Mr. Crawford glanced at him. “You need to hurry up. Your older brother is coming back soon. Don’t end up with nothing accomplished.”Ernest lowered his head respectfully and then asked, “Yes, Father. What about Barret?”“What do you think?” Mr. Crawford’s expression grew even more vicious. “I’ve already sent people to investigate. Once we find out who that girl with Scarface is, I’ll make her pay in blood!”Ernest was surprised. “Wasn’t she supposed to be Scarface’s niece?”“That’s something the
Mr. Crawford was quite confident about this matter.Ernest immediately handed over the phone.That girl had to be dealt with.Testing Mr. Cromwell’s attitude first was the right move. After all, even if the Cromwell family protected the girl this time, it would be much harder for them to do so again in the future.But Mr. Crawford had another idea as he held the phone. “Wait. We need to figure out whether that girl actually has real abilities or if she’s just spouting nonsense. We can’t let the Cromwell family reap an easy benefit for nothing.”“You mean…?” Ernest knew his father’s ways well. “We don’t mention the car accident?”Leaning on his cane, Mr. Crawford nodded. “Right now, aside from the Fisher and Campbell families, no one knows the truth about the accident. Especially regarding her prediction about Rowan—only Rowan himself knows. Even Spencer thinks she was bluffing.”“But what if she wasn’t?” His eyes gleamed with excitement. “If she can predict things so accurately, and w
In the evening, at the Cromwell Group, the Crawford family had not yet called.Mr. Cromwell was already angry. "Have I been too easy-going all these years, allowing the Crawford family to think the Cromwell family is nothing?""Perhaps the Crawford family still doesn't know Miss Amelia's true identity," Secretary Frank said. "But I still don’t understand why they would push forward a lone, orphaned doctor."Mr. Cromwell, listening to Secretary Frank’s words, fell into thought.At that moment, Amelia, having just seen off Mr. Hart, pushed the door open and entered. "Grandfather, what are you and Secretary Frank discussing?""The Crawford family has been making some troubling moves lately," Mr. Cromwell glanced at his precious granddaughter. "Amelia, you just arrived in the capital and might not know much about the Crawford family. Galen Crawford's the one I’m most familiar with. On the surface, he’s a scholar, but in reality, he’s deep and scheming. He has connections with people above
Amelia helped the old man sit down and continued, "Fifth Brother is upright. The incident in River County is behind him. In the future, things will go smoothly. When a dragon meets water, it’s a sign of great fortune."Mr. Cromwell paused at her words and then asked, "Amelia, tell me, did you really just learn a bit about Environmental Energy and the Art of Divination?""Well, not exactly," Amelia hesitated slightly when the subject came up. "I’m a bit of an idealist. When the old man taught me, I didn’t study properly, but I’m definitely better than most people out there."Mr. Cromwell, who had once been skeptical of such things, asked, "So, how do you compare to that Master Dawnshade?""Stronger than him," Amelia peeled an orange and handed half to Mr. Cromwell. "I’m very familiar with Master Dawnshade’s techniques. But, Grandfather, there’s no need to look for him. If we need someone to calculate fortune, the master who appeared at the hotel is pretty good."Mr. Cromwell was taken
This issue had been weighing heavily on Amelia's mind.Though on the surface, the crisis seemed to have passed and Molly Ashford's special team was investigating, there was still an inexplicable sense of discomfort lingering.She needed to make sure her grandfather was completely safe.Since the threat seemed to be internal, it was crucial to remain vigilant.Gordon, upon hearing Amelia’s words, suddenly raised his head. "Miss, do you mean to say...""I didn’t say anything," Amelia gave a quick glance at the other black-clad bodyguards nearby. "You’ve been with my grandfather the longest. To be honest, I’ve looked into you."Gordon froze.Amelia’s voice was soft, almost indifferent. "Every time my grandfather tries to contact me, someone always leaks the information, which means there’s someone around him who’s not following the rules.""Yes, the old masters are investigating this as well," Gordon replied.Amelia’s eyes darkened. "My grandfather is a sentimental person. He tends to ov
Nearby, at a bakery outside the building, Amelia held a large bag of bread, her eyes focused on the beggar, whose facial expressions kept changing. "Eat.""I... I can’t eat... hic!" The beggar bent over, leaning against the wall, trying to keep down the bread he had just eaten. The hiccups didn’t stop, and he didn’t realize that Amelia had already done something to him.He kept laughing nonstop, "Ha ha ha, I say, I, hic!""I’m not listening to this now," Amelia said, placing another piece of bread into his mouth. "Eating is important. It’s not good to stay hungry."The beggar felt like he was going to die, choking and hiccupping. "I... hic I’m sorry! Little... Little Miss, I..."Amelia finally reached out and removed a needle from his body.The beggar collapsed in the corner, drenched in cold sweat, gasping for breath.Amelia’s voice remained calm, almost detached. "I don’t have much patience. Stop beating around the bush and speak directly.""I don’t know who gave me the box. I was j
"By all rights, the thousand should be just a deposit. The bulk of the payment should come after you spread the rumors," Amelia’s eyes were cold, dark like a demon walking out of hell, "You don’t really think I believe what you just said, do you? Divination slips aren’t something just anyone can understand.""I... I..." The beggar was flustered, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.This wasn’t how he expected things to go. In his mind, no matter how clever a young girl might be, she wouldn’t be able to figure out the entire story. But to his shock, she had guessed everything!Amelia raised an eyebrow, the mole beneath her eye shining. "I’ll give you one last chance. Tell me, who gave you the wooden box?""I don’t know. She wore a black cloak, very intimidating. She used a voice changer, but I could tell she was a woman, yes, definitely a woman... I’m guilty," the beggar’s demeanor began to crack.Amelia immediately lifted his arm and examined it.The beggar’s eyes started to change
But what she hated even more was herself, as she had no ability to know who the other person was!Amelia's eyes were pale: "No rush, easy to find.""Solving a case sometimes relied on modern tools."Amelia said, raising her hand to check the time, "It's eight ten. Once we have checked the guests who arrived around this time, we will be able to identify the culprit.""How do I check?" The twins, although mature, are still children after all.Amelia laughed and said, "Infiltrating the surveillance system was easy."However, her handsome fiancé had to return Elijah to her first.With this thought in mind, Amelia had just planned to take a stroll and walk past.Zane said, "Carl, you misunderstood. Abby is someone I grew up with. She just really likes you, but she has never been clingy. What you said in front of so many people was too much."Zane claimed to be Carl's father-in-law, and he had already built the steps. No matter what, the other party had to give him face and let the matter p
They couldn't help it and even tore apart the green tea with their hands!Looking back now, the Cromwell family saw the child that had been brought back, just holding pastries and looking at the scene with thin lips slightly curved.It was really too heavy to hold my breath!She was truly Ruby's daughter!Some people were also puzzled, like Trista. She didn't understand why, even though she knew these truths, she still wanted to speak up for Abby in that moment.She pinched her own hand to suppress the strange feeling.Even Sebastian was somewhat affected, if it weren't for Carl speaking up, he would have almost been entangled by Abby.This has also been puzzling to him, as he clearly knew that he disliked Abby, but whenever he encountered her, he would feel sorry for her, as if she had some serious illness.Sebastian furrowed his brow and planned to turn around and have a good talk with Amelia about this matter.What he didn't know was that someone had already informed Amelia about t
Since Carl had made a move, there was no way he would give her any room to maneuver.Tea or not tea, he didn't care, and it had nothing to do with him.But when it came to someone, he definitely carried the teapot and tea together.Someone just said that the most important thing for a woman is propriety, righteousness, integrity, and honor.Carl glanced, and his gaze fell on an inconspicuous wealthy lady in the crowd. "I want to ask Mr. Savigny, why is it that these two individuals openly express their admiration for me without any hesitation? Don't you think there's a problem with that? On the other hand, the person who is engaged to me, why do you criticize and condemn her for the same thing?""And yet, you felt nothing when it came to these two individuals?"Norma Savigny opened her mouth and said, "That's different, Abby has been... for so many years.""It is indeed different," Carl interrupted her softly. "Amelia is my fiancée, as for these two... I have privately rejected them m
Amanda has been influenced by the scent of medicine for a long time, and now she has become a bit delusional. However, she is completely unaware of it and continues to act recklessly.Paula wanted to pull her, "Amanda, are you crazy!"Her daughter could not have been so stupid normally!Didn't you see Carl's actions? He specifically came here to support Amelia!Amanda, on the other hand, seemed to have lost her sanity: "Mom, listen to me, he couldn't possibly fall for a village girl, what did he even talk about with that village girl? He's such a sophisticated person!"Paula wished she could have slapped Amanda again.Amanda's strength was surprisingly strong, and no matter how hard she tried to stop her, she couldn't.Amanda saw others looking at her like she was crazy, and her heart grew cold. She immediately went to Abby and grabbed her hand, saying, "Abby, you know best. We have been watching him all these years. He has rejected you countless times, even. It's impossible for him t
The New York boss, the New York prince, were never fake.Thinking about what he used to do when his body wasn't so bad, he would just uproot the entire Jenkins family if they made him unhappy.They all saw what he was like when dealing with people. Who would dare to cross the line? Isn't that asking for trouble?The chilling momentum made some other bosses quickly say, "Mr. Jenkins, your fiancée, what kind of circles is she involved in? She herself is a circle!"Carl nodded towards the person speaking and said, "Mr. Carter was right. I also wished that my fiancée would not be bothered or manipulated by anyone in the future.""So, I also arrived a little late."Amanda listened to the words in her ears and shook her head continuously, saying, "No, I don't believe it! How could you possibly like her!""She was beautiful and kind, with a pure and simple heart. Why wouldn't I be able to like her?" Carl's eyes were pale.Are people beautiful and kind-hearted?Simple-minded?The crowd looked
The shareholders did indeed start to hesitate, and the business partners were also discussing.Ruby protected Amelia and said confidently, "Amelia is not the kind of person who would do these things, there is a misunderstanding here.""Aunt Ruby, how do you explain Scarface's words then? This video was really filmed!" Amanda shouted, unchanging in her stubbornness.Paula, who originally wanted to pull her along, did not stop her at this moment.Ruby's daughter embarrassing herself was the most enjoyable thing for her.All the pressure came to the Cromwell family at once."Scarface, it was indeed difficult to explain."Most likely, this is the rumor spread by Amelia from the Cromwell family, probably out of fear that Mr. Jenkins would want to break off the engagement again."The Jenkins family must have looked down on someone from a small place, otherwise there wouldn't have been no one coming.""Who said it wasn't, and Scarface has been around for so many years. Only listen to Sir Cro
People did not know who the person in the picture was.The video only captured the marble floor on the ground.The photographer intentionally took it this way.At that moment, everyone's gaze focused on the screen."Mr. Jenkins, who had previously rejected the Cromwell family's proposal, would never actively pursue her.""How did you know it was her spreading the rumors?"The voices of the two girls were clearly processed, making it impossible to tell who they were."I caught the person spreading rumors."One of the girls aimed her phone at the screen.Wearing a long coat and carrying a birdcage, Scarface was talking to someone, saying, "You guys have only seen one side of the Cromwell family's matter, Mr. Jenkins was the one chasing after people.""You see, the way he talks, it's as if he has seen it with his own eyes." The voice in the scene says, "Who doesn't know that he is one of Hamza's people, it is clear who spread this rumor."I was also drunk. Only shameless people would spr
Amelia naturally associated him with Zane, especially since Zane trusted him so much.The Wraith Infant and her sisters all told her that she was not...Amelia got lost in her thoughts.The only voice found in the dream banquet was Paula's.Another question, until now, she has not found the answer.Wasn't it big enough?Amelia pressed her fingertips against the evil-warding coin and calmly looked around in all directions.Zane was still struggling, and Abby stood beside him, looking pitiful, calling out, "Dad, don't be like this.""What problems does she have? Can you tell?" Amelia casually raised her hand and took a glass of wine.The vengeful spirits jumped twice on her shoulder and said, "I didn't see anything else, it's just that people listened to her too much, Master. I know there is a kind of dark magic underground that can influence people's thoughts.""Dark magic?" Amelia said absentmindedly, "Are you referring to what is recorded in the Indian scriptures?"The vengeful spiri
So Zane hated, and of course he could not chase the past again, he also had his dignity!Abby became anxious and said, "Dad, you should go and say something nice to Mom. Mom won't really divorce you.""She wanted to leave, so she left!" Zane tugged at his tie, veins popping on his forehead, and sweat pouring down.Abby couldn't believe that her usually astute father couldn't see through the current situation.The divorce became a settled matter in such a situation.What did she do after today?The information that Ruby had come too late.Otherwise, she wouldn't have made up her mind to divorce Zane today.The smartest thing about this approach was that it put an end to Abby relying on Zane and herself, and constantly seeking the support of the Cromwell family and the Molson family!Even Sebastian was wondering, "Mom, how did you suddenly have a change of heart?"He and his brothers all thought that the divorce, no matter how it was said, would take some time, until their mother really
