Chapter 42: The Traitor

Jonathan picked up a large piece of meat and nodded as he ate.

“Yes, that’s right. Do you also know my mother, Grandma?”

Rodina did not answer. She only smiled and nodded. Jonathan’s reply filled her heart with quiet joy.

So it truly was as she had guessed. Jonathan was indeed her biological grandson.

Rodina looked at Jonathan with eyes full of affection. She gently stroked his head and sighed softly in her heart.

Throughout the entire evening, Rodina never left Jonathan’s side. She personally cooked the dishes he liked, chose bed sheets and pillowcases in the patterns he preferred, and even arranged the room exactly according to his wishes.

Mr. Raymond was no different. All day long, he stayed with Jonathan, playing various games, strolling through the garden, fishing, and doing all kinds of things he had once considered a waste of time.

Even the people around them admitted that this was the first time they had ever seen Mr. Raymond spoil someone like this.

    Chapter 57: Mary’s ConfusionMary sighed. She understood that sacrificing oneself for the person one loves is something very normal. But she and Edric were a different case.If it were before, Mary might have been very happy to know that Edric truly loved her. But now, she was not even sure whether she felt happy or not.Everything was too chaotic.“Too many things have happened recently. I don’t even know what I should do anymore.”Justin smiled. He helped Mary lie down, then carefully pulled the blanket over her.“Don’t think too much anymore. There are some things that cannot be obtained just by wanting them. Both you and I understand that. No matter what choice you make in the end, I will still cherish you. As for the projects between the two corporations, I will take care of your part of the work for now, so during this time you should just focus on resting and recovering. I need to go back and handle some matters. I will come back to visit you in the evening.”Mary nodded and wa

    Chapter 56: ProtectionWhat happened afterward was that Mary woke up in a private hospital room.Mary had fallen into a long sleep until the soft murmuring voices of someone caused her to jolt awake.The sharp smell of disinfectant rushed straight into her nose, making her frown. Mary looked up at the unfamiliar white ceiling and the IV bag hanging on the infusion stand. Her whole body felt sore and aching, and she did not want to move even a single finger.Mary tried to turn her head and tiredly searched with her eyes for the source of the sound that had woken her up. It turned out that Lucas was standing outside the hospital room door, talking with the doctor.Mary realized that she was in the hospital, and only then did she remember that she had been caught in an explosion.The aftershock of the explosion had affected her slightly, so her reactions had not yet fully recovered.Mary tried to recall how everything had happened from beginning to end.She remembered that before reachin

    Chapter 55: RescueJustin’s group brought a large amount of modern equipment to assist in transporting massive blocks of bricks, greatly improving the efficiency of the rescue operation. Seeing the chaotic scene, Justin immediately understood the importance of this incident and realized that the scale of the damage was far greater than what he had imagined when he first received the phone call.While directing his people, Justin unintentionally spotted Lucas standing beside the police chief, his expression as if his world had collapsed.A sudden sense of fear flashed through Justin’s heart. He shifted his gaze toward the collapsed building and saw the Salvaria family’s bodyguards, as well as Ivanka, desperately searching through the ruins.Justin felt his heart miss a beat. He walked over to Lucas and asked,“What happened? Why are you here?”Lucas was extremely surprised to see Justin. By all logic, he should have been the one asking Justin why he was here instead.“Mary is attending

    Chapter 54: Searching for MaryAfter finishing handling matters on his end, Lucas immediately rushed over with his subordinates, driving straight to Mary’s location. Unfortunately, his phone ran out of battery halfway, so he did not receive Ivanka’s notification call.He had no idea how severe the situation was until he arrived and saw with his own eyes the desolate pile of ruins.The chaotic scene unfolding before him sent a chill down Lucas’s spine. By instinct, he searched the crowd for Mary’s face, holding onto a faint hope that she was still safe.But Lucas could not find that familiar face or figure. Instead, he saw Ivanka and the Salvaria family’s subordinates digging through the rubble, desperately searching for something.His keen intuition made his blood run cold. Lucas understood that Ivanka would not be acting with such urgency for any other reason.The Salvaria subordinates and the rescue team shouted continuously as they carried large chunks of broken bricks out one by o

  • No More Unloved Wife: The Mafia Queen Returns   Chapter 53: Explosion!

    Chapter 53: Explosion!Mary and Edric ran down to the ground floor via the stairwell. They realized that most of the people inside the building had already been evacuated. Edric’s bodyguards had been killed by the assassin with a single slash each, the methods so ruthless that not a single one survived.Edric’s wound was bleeding more and more heavily, and with Linda unconscious on his back, he grew even more exhausted. When they reached the ground floor, Edric stopped, panting heavily.Mary, who had been checking the surroundings, suddenly no longer heard footsteps behind her and immediately turned around to look. She rushed over to support Edric and asked.“What’s wrong? Are you okay?”She looked again and saw blood already soaking through, Edric’s face pale, sweat pouring down his forehead.Mary realized that the wound, combined with the earlier fierce struggle, had drained far too much of Edric’s strength.In her rush to escape the dangerous place, Mary had momentarily forgotten t

  • No More Unloved Wife: The Mafia Queen Returns   Chapter 52: Bomb!

    Chapter 52: Bomb!Edric stood up, removed the tie from his neck, and used it to tightly bind the wound to stop the bleeding. Mary sat up and glanced at the assassin lying in the corner by the wall, then said.“Tie him up. If he wakes up, we won’t be as comfortable as we are now.”Being able to knock him out earlier was actually a matter of luck, thanks to Mary’s sudden attack and the fact that she used all her strength to strike a vital spot. In reality, if she were in normal condition, Mary was confident she could match him evenly.But now it was different. The drug in her system had not fully worn off, Edric was injured, and a direct confrontation would be far more difficult and exhausting.Mary blinked at Edric. She hesitated for a moment before asking.“Are you okay? Do you need my help?”After all, Edric had been dragged into such a dangerous situation because he was with her. Mary felt guilty when she thought about the injury he suffered because of her.Watching Edric fumble as
