Oprah's tone revealed a hint of dark and unclear stubbornness, which came from a mother's nature to protect her child, and no one could take it away.She hadn't wanted to give birth to the child at first. But when Roxanne forced her to have an abortion, she realized that she couldn't bear to get rid of the life in her belly.She would never let anyone abort this child!Roxanne stared at Oprah for a long time. Seeing the red marks on her daughter’s cheek, she said ruthlessly, "Get rid of the child and leave Burgess, or I will pretend that I never gave birth to you!"With that, Roxanne left the villa without looking back.Oprah stood by the window in a daze, watching Roxanne drive away. She suddenly burst into tears. Tears fell on the back of her hand, blurring her vision quickly.What Oprah didn't expect was that the headlines the next day were all gossip about her being with Burgess, and the maliciousness of the headline was very obvious.Some said that their brother and sister had in

Sue originally wanted to meet up with Oprah, but Oprah was pregnant, and Burgess kept a close eye on her, not allowing her to go out casually.Sue cursed her brother for being so infatuated with that cunning woman, treating her like a precious gem. But she had no choice but to find Oprah herself at the villa.The two of them sat in the living room on the second floor. The servants brought some tea and snacks and then left them alone.Sue was a no-nonsense woman, always speaking her mind. And this time was no different when she met Oprah. She stared at Oprah sharply and said, "I'm not gonna beat around the bush with you."Oprah nodded, "Just say it straight."Taking a sip of coffee, Sue said, "There's no way Burgess will marry an average woman, let alone his stepmother's daughter. If word gets out, he'll be a laughingstock. Now that you've messed up and got yourself pregnant, if you agree to get rid of the baby, I'll give you a ton of money and even arrange for you to study abroad at t

For Burgess, what happened in the garden was just a small disturbance, but he underestimated Sue's anger.At this moment, Sue was holding a set of private detective files about Oprah. Sue scrutinized them without missing a single word.When her gaze fell on the leftmost section of the text, Sue raised an eyebrow. She didn't expect Oprah to have had such a brief romantic history.But it didn't matter whether this romance lasted a week or a month; it was enough....In a private booth of a high-end café.Alfred lazily sat in his chair, smiling at Sue across from him.Although he wasn't sure why she suddenly sought him out, he had heard the recent rumors about the Harrison family. Was Sue planning to make a move through him?As he pondered Sue's intentions, she spoke, "Alfred, I'm straightforward by nature, so I'll get straight to the point.""I don't like beating around the bush either," Alfred smiled."Good." Sue nodded and stared at Alfred intently. "I know you had a relationship with

Alfred was taken to the hospital by Burgess's assistant.Sue looked at Burgess, who was brooding and considered persuading him not to get so worked up over a woman. However, she worried it might backfire and raise Burgess's suspicion, so she left the office.Her goal for today had been achieved, and she just had to wait for Burgess and Oprah to break up.Sue's prediction was correct.No matter how rational a man is, he cannot tolerate his beloved woman having an affair with someone else. Moreover, Oprah had been in a relationship with Alfred for some time and never expressed her love for Burgess. So, doubts lingered in Burgess's heart.In the evening, when he returned to the villa and saw Oprah lying in bed reading a pregnancy manual, Burgess hesitated momentarily before finally voicing his suspicions."Did you ever sleep with Alfred?" He stared intensely at Oprah's soft and beautiful face, afraid to miss any expression.Oprah's motion of flipping the book paused, and she slowly raise

For several days, Oprah didn't want to go out. She locked herself in her apartment and refused to answer any calls, even blocking Burgess, Sue, and others' numbers.One morning, the doorbell kept ringing, and Oprah felt annoyed. Through the peephole, she saw Roxanne looking haggard. Oprah couldn't bring herself to ignore her."Mom, what brings you here? Did Burgess send you?" Oprah opened the door.Roxanne shook her head, walked into the living room, and sat on the couch.They sat on the couch, not speaking a word.Feeling agitated, Oprah got up to return to the bedroom, but Roxanne grabbed her wrist. "Oprah, do you hate me? Do you hate me for neglecting you all these years?"Oprah replied indifferently, "No."Roxanne began to wipe her tears, choking on her words as she recounted some of Oprah's childhood anecdotes. Oprah felt increasingly agitated, and memories of the past flooded back.Back then, Roxanne had truly loved her daughter, buying her beautiful dresses and exciting toys an
