Chapter 200: Always a Hint of Discord

Author: Chunfengyidu
Elizabeth Black noticed that after Lawyer Zheng's visit, Rupert Washington had become much colder towards her. He would often look at her with a sidelong glance and occasionally let out a cold snort, as if she had done something terribly wrong to him. But wasn't the divorce a mutual decision? She hadn't forced him, and he had agreed so quickly.

The patient in the next bed, a young girl, had just gone for a walk and returned just as Lawyer Zheng was leaving. She asked what the lawyer was there for. Elizabeth Black replied, "Nothing, just regular business." The young patient nodded, though she didn't understand what kind of business it was. She enjoyed talking to this sister who looked like Nydia Leighton, feeling as if she were talking to Nydia Leighton herself, which made her very happy.

As they were chatting...

Rupert Washington: "Haha."

Suddenly, he chuckled, and Elizabeth Black turned to ask, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Rupert Washington: "You're concerned about me?"

    Rupert Washington didn't know what he said to Elizabeth Black.Elizabeth Black nodded and left, closing the door behind her.Rupert Washington walked up to Morris, looking down at him.For the first time, Morris felt the pressure of Rupert Washington's gaze.Then he heard him say, "I've sent everyone away to give you some face. After all, you've been working hard for so many years, Uncle."After thirty years, Rupert Washington called him by that title again, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.Morris stared at him in disbelief.His fingers pounded furiously on the keyboard, full of anger.But at this moment, he was like a paper tiger, ferocious but harmless.Rupert Washington looked at him with curiosity."Didn't expect you would have to rely on your fingers to communicate, did you?"He leaned over and took a look.The screen read: "If I were you, I wouldn't be smiling right now!"Morris's face twisted in rage.He didn't want to see Rupert Washington so relaxed and at eas

  • Wild Affection   Chapter 546: A Glimmer Before the End

    Rupert Washington never expected Morris to still be alive.Back then, during that operation where they had him cornered like a fish in a barrel,he and the police had made thorough preparations.They had clearly driven Morris into a dead end.He had even seen with his own eyes the vehicle Morris was in go up in flames.He never imagined that Morris could have survived.Moreover, he had lived for over two decades without legs and without his voice,fueled by hatred."Are you sure?" Rupert Washington asked Lin Xizhi again.When he mentioned Morris earlier, Lin Xizhi had nodded.But Rupert Washington still found it hard to believe.He asked once more.Elizabeth Black, who was beside him, shared the same disbelief.Both of them stared intently at Lin Xizhi.Lin Xizhi nodded firmly again."Yes, my father is Morris."Lin Xizhi, swaying from intoxication, gritted her teeth as she spoke about Morris.After calling out "Dad," she spat."He doesn't deserve to be called my fathe

    "Do you know why I'm called Lin Xizhi?" Lin Xizhi was clearly already half-drunk. She even burped.In fact, the Ling family had no intention of listening to her ramblings when they chased her down here. But at this moment, a hint of sorrow hung on the woman's face, which was strangely infectious, making it hard for anyone to interrupt her."Why?" Ling Beili asked subconsciously."Because the person who named me is an unforgivable scoundrel, who manipulated my life to achieve his revenge, making me be pitied by my own parents and family," Lin Xizhi said.Upon hearing this, Ling Chengyu, who was sitting opposite, suddenly stood up. His eyes were red as he stared intently at Lin Xizhi, "Enough! Stop talking!""I will talk." Lin Xizhi also stood up, "I'm so pitiful, can't I even speak? *Burp...*"She burped again, swaying unsteadily as she stood. Elizabeth Black, who was closest to her, instinctively reached out to support her. This act, however, caused Lin Xizhi to instantly break d

    "How's it going? Have you still not reached Chengyu on the phone?" Ling Beili, who was about to leave for an out-of-town shoot, had to turn back halfway because of Ling Yun's sudden incident and her brother, Ling Chengyu, going missing after sending a Whatsapp message.Elizabeth Black had been trying to call Ling Chengyu repeatedly, but with no success. Ling Beili also tried several times, saying, "In this situation, he either turned off his phone, or it's out of battery, or it's been stolen. Mom, which do you think is more likely?"Elizabeth Black bit her lower lip. "Beili, your brother said he was the one who leaked Lingyun's source code."Before losing contact, this was the message Ling Chengyu left. He said that during his time in Rupert Washington's office, instead of preparing to take over the company, he was familiarizing himself with the internal security system to get the source code.Ling Beili was stunned. "Then he must have turned off his phone himself."Since Ling Che

  • Wild Affection   Chapter 543: Bloodline Verification Agency

    Yang Xiaomei tried on a silk scarf in her room and then came out, only to see Lin Xizhi frantically throwing away a manuscript. She seemed to have gone mad. Confused, Yang Xiaomei asked her what was wrong. Lin Xizhi's eyes were blank, her pupils dilated. Yang Xiaomei was thoroughly frightened. She had always felt that Lin Xizhi had a powerful presence, and she dared not meet her gaze. Now, she didn't even dare to speak. She could only watch as Lin Xizhi rushed up the stairs, presumably to find her father. But halfway up, she turned and ran back down. "Xizhi, you... you're not going to see your dad?" Yang Xiaomei asked casually as she saw her rushing out. But Lin Xizhi seemed not to hear her, walking away without looking back. Yang Xiaomei found her behavior strange. Driven by curiosity, she ran upstairs to ask the paralytic about his daughter. Opening the door, she saw the paralytic staring at the computer screen, laughing eerily. On the screen was a
