Penelope went on, one outrageous remark after another, and Ian couldn't bear it."You're being rude and ridiculous!" he snapped, then walked off, refusing to spare her another glance.Left alone, Penelope remained in her seat, struggling to pull herself together. Her hair was still slightly messy, and the hatred in her eyes for Jacklyn threatened to boil over.She grabbed her phone and sent a message. A reply came back shortly after.Glancing at the twisting, out-of-the-way address, Penelope couldn't help but be impressed by Rebecca.It wasn't long before Penelope arrived at the place. The clamor of countless market stalls never ceased in the busy square, and the air was thick with the smell of roasting meats and fresh bread.People strolled past in sandals or haggled fiercely over fruits and vegetables at the stalls.After making her way through the part of the market too tight for cars, Penelope felt utterly filthy. It wasn't until she went further inside that the chaos and me

Liam texted back, "I'll send people there immediately."Jacklyn couldn't sleep. Worry twisted in her chest. She hadn't heard from Theodore in days. She didn't know if he'd eaten, if he'd slept well, or if Rebecca had been mistreating him.Looking around the empty house, her chest tightened, as if Theodore's presence still filled every corner.Sniffling, Jacklyn picked up her phone and texted, "Thanks, Abel. How did you manage to find Theo?"Sensing Jacklyn's confusion, Abel texted back, pride in his words, "I met a tech expert a while ago. He just developed a new tracking system, and he happened to be in Cyrelia promoting it. I never expected it would be useful so soon."Jacklyn's phone lit up with a long message from him. As she read it, much of the worry that had hung over her for the past few days finally lifted.…In the run-down, bustling part of Swanford, Liam's men finally forced the apartment door open after banging on it repeatedly.Light flooded the dim interior, reve

Liam lunged forward, catching Theodore just as he came barreling toward him. Once Theodore was out of danger, Liam's bodyguards swung their focus to Rebecca, closing in fast.Rebecca stared at the blood on her hand, cursing Theodore under her breath. When she looked up, she found a group charging straight for her.This was bad. If Liam got his hands on her, there would be no mercy.She looked around for a way out and bolted. She tore across street after street. The bodyguards couldn't keep up. They had to obey traffic laws, while she didn't.Rebecca was still running when she suddenly found herself directly in front of a white car moving at a steady speed. It hit her, sending her tumbling across the pavement.An ambulance was called, and she was rushed to the hospital. The injuries were minor, only a few cuts and some lingering dizziness.…By the next day, Rebecca was far less dazed than she'd been yesterday. She got her phone back from the doctor and quickly sent a message to

Theodore's cuts weren't serious, but Jacklyn took a few days off anyway to stay with him and make sure he got some rest. She put her work at Starborne Entertainment and Odore on hold and went to the set with him.Even though Theodore hadn't been there in a while, the kids remembered him fondly, grabbing at him and saying how much they'd missed him.With Jacklyn looking after him and the cast's warm welcome, his smile returned, and only then did Jacklyn feel completely at ease.…At the entrance to a private room in the steakhouse, Jacklyn spoke smoothly, "Mrs. Woodruff, your choice of Odore says a lot about the trust you place in us. With this emerald in our hands, we won't let you down."Next to her, socialite Dianne Jones looked genuinely pleased."Odore's work is always impressive. But remember. You'll be designing it yourself," she said warmly, giving Jacklyn a meaningful glance."Of course, Mrs. Woodruff. For a client like you, we'll give it everything we've got," Jacklyn r

Just then, Bianca found her excuse. She squeezed out tears and gave Lara a pitiful look. "It's true. You've always treated me the best. And I'm pregnant."But Lara wasn't buying it anymore. She didn't believe a word Bianca said.That was when Liam came rushing in. He'd already heard Bianca's words before he even stepped inside.He walked over slowly, not once looking at her, and asked coldly, "Was it really forced? I can go drag that guy here and ask him myself."Then, he walked over to Lara. "Mom, you see it now, right? This is who she really is."When Liam mentioned going to find Todd, Bianca froze like she'd been hit by lightning. She panicked and blurted, "No! You can't go to him!"Liam said nothing. He waited for Lara to speak.Seeing Bianca so frantic, Lara already knew the truth. Her anger didn't ease. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "Is the baby you're carrying even one of the Robertsons'?"Liam jumped in right away. "Of course not. I already told you I've got nothing
