Amanda had been beaten so badly that she lost consciousness right on the spot. Someone only noticed her because of her nurse's uniform.When she was admitted, Penelope was the first one to receive the news. Not long after, Penelope walked into her hospital room. When she saw Amanda bandaged up like a mummy, her heart skipped a beat.She walked over to her bedside and removed her sunglasses. "Are you… okay?"Amanda was in a lot of pain all over. She grumbled, "Do I look okay? If it weren't for Jacklyn, I wouldn't have been beaten unconscious right in the parking lot! I'm in a lot of pain, Penelope!"Penelope gripped her sunglasses tightly and clenched her teeth. "Yes, this is all Jacklyn's fault! If it weren't for her, none of this would've gotten out. She was the one who wouldn't behave and just had to throw herself in front of us! Amanda, it's all because of Jacklyn that you were beaten up!"The hatred in Amanda's eyes grew thicker and thicker with Penelope's words. "I swear I'

Jacklyn looked downward, her gaze icy and her expression unreadable. She turned, walked back to her desk, and pulled out a checkbook. Without hesitation, she wrote out a sum and handed the check back to Rebecca and George."100,000 dollars. Take it, and don't come looking for me again."Any sense of family had disappeared the day of the kidnapping six years ago. The 100,000 dollars was her being softhearted enough as it was.She thought they would snatch it up without another word. Yet, to her surprise, Rebecca actually pulled her hand back.A flicker of disbelief crossed Jacklyn's otherwise calm expression. Rebecca actually didn't move to take it? That would have been impossible six years ago."Jackie, that's not what I meant. I really do just want to borrow a little—enough for us to get back on our feet. I also want to make things right with you. If I can't see you, then… I don't want this money," she said with a sigh before turning to leave.Jacklyn watched as the two of them

Rebecca lowered her head, putting on a pitiful act. "Your father and I have already gone to see Penelope, but she said she is Mrs. Lloyd now and that we shouldn't look for her again."Her voice broke slightly as she added, "She doesn't want us in her life. She's afraid we'll be a burden to her. We wouldn't have been so desperate to come to you otherwise, Jacklyn. We know we've wronged you. We didn't want to bother you at first, but… we just had no choice."Jacklyn couldn't even remember the last time she had seen Rebecca cry. However, the knife they had plunged into her back all those years ago was still stuck there, completely irremovable. She drew in a deep breath before exhaling all her frustrations. Then, she pulled a card out and tossed it onto the bed."Go find a job and live your lives. Don't come looking for me anymore. We'll just live our lives separately."The wounds that came from parents' hands hurt more than any others. When Jacklyn looked at their faces, she couldn'

Lara grew more agitated with every word, and her face became flushed red. "Which part of Cecily isn't worthy of you?"The room fell into a tense silence. Liam met Lara's gaze, an unreadable glint flashing across his steady eyes. "It's not her problem. It's mine. Mom, we've argued over this enough times already, and it's meaningless to continue."Then, he turned to Cecily and added, "I hope you can also understand—the only person I'll marry is Jackie."Cecily's eyes dimmed briefly at his words, while Lara became so mad that her hands trembled. "You keep saying that! I swear, you're just trying to drive me to an early grave!" Lara shrieked. Her high-pitched voice made Augustine's head throb. He massaged his temples and said slowly, "Enough. Liam can make his own decisions when it comes to his marriage."He had seen Jacklyn before, and she was indeed a solid girl. The only pity was that she was a divorcee, but that wasn't a dealbreaker, either. He had thought it through, and he

The moment Eugene's gaze landed on Theodore, Irene's heart leaped into her throat. She clutched Theodore's hand tightly and tried to use her body to block him from view.She looked at Eugene warily and said, "Theo's my son."Eugene stared at her in shock, his voice filled with disbelief. "Your son? This is your and Liam's child? You and Liam are together?"Only then did Irene realize what she had said. But the words were already out, so she could only force herself to nod. "What? Is that not allowed?"Eugene shook his head. "No, it's just that… it's surprising."Irene didn't bother responding. She knew Eugene was sharp, and if she said any more, he'd catch on. The longer they could keep Jacklyn hidden, the better.When they entered the restaurant, Theodore turned to Irene in confusion. "Irene, why did you lie? I'm Mommy's son, so why did you say I'm yours?"Irene was momentarily stumped. It was difficult to explain adult problems to a child, especially ones like these that invol
