When we arrived at the hospital, I headed to the emergency room. Lydia accompanied her daughter alone in one of the wards. Scott waited outside to give my friend some privacy. I took the opportunity to give her something.

Lydia furrowed her brow as she received the three toothbrushes. I placed my index finger over my lips to signal her not to say anything. I typed something on my phone, and she read it. My friend frowned, then nodded in agreement.

“What's wrong?” I asked, looking at the sleeping Edith.

“Edith has a high fever. I was worried, so I brought her here. She's only been drinking my breast milk for two days. I thought there was something wrong with me. Thankfully, the doctor said she's just tired,” Lydia answered.

I glanced at the curtain where Scott was standing. “What now?”

“The doctor asked me to wait until her fever goes down. He'll give her medicine if needed. Um, since you're here, I need some help,” Lydia muttered.

“Yeah?” I nodded slowly.

“I need to use the restroom

    I clenched my fists. My eyes burned with the pain of betrayal. Sinclair couldn't have done that. But he resented me. The man thought I was the cause of his family's misfortune. That was enough to drive him to destroy my dream of becoming a mother.I had to wait for the lab results before thinking about punishment for Sinclair. I'd better focus on Robin. It was my day off, and I had plenty of time to plan revenge for his unforgivable crime.I called Taylor and invited her to lunch. Knowing she was at her office, I bought food and met her there. Scott and Rocco followed me so we could eat together. My cousin was the COO. Her office was spacious enough for me and my two bodyguards.“Today is Wednesday. Doesn't your boss open the club on Saturdays and Sundays?” Taylor asked.“We can choose one of the old dances to perform this weekend,” I replied.She nodded. “You're right. Why didn't I think of that?”I put spaghetti in my mouth. It tasted delicious. Even though it was expensive, I prefe

    [Darcy]Sinclair didn't touch me last night. He slept beside me, but that was all. The man avoided me. If I had woken up to his touch, I would have asked him many questions. That meant he knew I had entered an area of the house I wasn't supposed to go into.I was lucky that everyone was focused on the children who came to the house to celebrate Halloween. No servants saw me climb the stairs and enter their employer's room. The security guards must have had other priorities, so they paid no attention to the surveillance cameras.Unfortunately, I wasn't lucky with Sinclair. He didn't have breakfast with me. I didn't bother to find out where he was. He must have preferred to be with his son. I wouldn't let him avoid me. After finding out the results, we had to talk."This is my first time at a place like this, Scott said.“I'm not surprised,” I muttered.We were in front of a building. My bodyguard opened the car door, and we entered the building. I approached the elevator. We waited unt

    I looked at the photos. The two women met and talked intently in an alley. Judging from the date in the picture, they met after the woman left the hospital. I didn't see her after that.Why did Poppy meet her? What did they talk about? I couldn't get that information from the first five photos. The other ones shocked me. The woman was unconscious. Poppy struggled to get her into her car.The surprises didn't stop there. Poppy took the woman to a place. The time in the image was about three hours after she put the woman in the car. Poppy dragged the woman out of the SUV and threw her into a cliff.“Damn,” I muttered.Unbelievable. I couldn't believe Poppy would do something so heinous. What happened that made her beat the woman and end her life? I thought Dashiell's surrogate mother had returned to her hometown and moved on with her life.I glanced at the flash drive on top of the envelope. I took it to my desk and plugged it into my computer. There was only one folder inside. I opened

    [Sinclair]Dashiell slept soundly in his bed. The exhausting day helped him forget the terrible incident at the park. I sat beside him and adjusted his blanket. Had I met all his needs?I asked myself that question repeatedly. Dashiell was growing up well. Was that enough? The doctor said he was a healthy and happy child. That was the most important thing. But he didn't know about the life-threatening experience my son had gone through.I couldn't keep my secret from the public any longer. Everyone would find out about Dashiell. I didn't think twice about carrying out the plan. I took a deep breath, calming my emotions. Our lives would become even more challenging once everyone knew everything.Tuesday felt like an eternity. I couldn't wait to take down Sean Channing. After discovering he was behind my father's death, I had to restrain myself from attacking him. As a result, he attacked first.I didn't care about the club's future. Insurance covered every aspect of it. I didn't lose a

    [Darcy]My heart pounded, suffocating my chest. I hadn't broken any rules in a long time. Even though I missed the adrenaline rush, I was terrified of Sinclair's wrath. That man had hurt me last night. Even thinking about it made my body tremble.However, I was on the upper floor, and it was too late to back out. I looked down the corridor. The lighting was sufficient for me to see a few doors. I walked down the hallway and noticed another entrance.Lionel and several servants were standing there. A group of children dressed in cartoon character costumes held out buckets or small baskets. The butler handed out sweets, and the servants gave colored pencils or other school supplies.“Thank you, sir. Thank you, ma'am!” the children called out as they moved away from the door. They descended the terrace stairs cheerfully.“Be careful,” Lionel said.“This year's celebration is busier than last year's,” a servant commented.“Some of those children don't live around here. Maybe they know we
